ALL DISORDERS AFFECTING THE LIVER, STOMACH, AND BOWELS. THESE PILLS can be confidently recommended as JL the most simple and certain remedy for indiges- tion, flatulency, acidity, heartburn, colic, constipation, and all the many maladies resulting from disordered stomach or bowels. In all diseases it is of primary im- portance to set the stomach right. These Pills are puri- fiers, alteratives and strengtheners of the stomach. They may be taken under any circumstances. Though powerfully tonic and satisfactorily aperient, they are mild in their, operation, and beneficial to the whole system. WEAKNESS AND DEBILITY, NERVOUS IRRI- TABILITY. The wholesome effect exercised by these admirable Pills over the blood and fluids generally is like a charm in dispelling low spirits, and restoring cheerfulness. Their general aperient qualities well fit them for a do- mestic medicine, particularly for females of all ages and periods of life. They never betray any disagreeable irritating qualities; they quickly eject all impurities from the system, !\ud regulate every function of the body, giving wonderful tone and energy to weak and de- bilitated persons, while they brace and strengthen the nervous svstem in a most extraordinary manner. TO REGAIN HEALTH, STRENGTH, AND VIGOUR. Whenever persons find themselves in that state termed a little out of health," and there are so many causes at work to shorten life, it is necessary that Holloway's Pills, the tiuest purifier of the blood ever known, should be at once taken, as they not only rid both solids and fluids of allmoruid matters, but regulate all disordered actions, and strengthen the frame in a most extraordi- narv manner. OLD COUGHS, COLDS, AND ASTHMATICAL AFFECTIONS. These Pills, assisted in their action by rubbing Hollo- way's Ointment very effectually twice a day upon the throat &ud chest, and keeping those parts covered with the preparation, will be found the most effective remedy for asthma, coughs, colds, bronchitis, and influenza. These remedies tranquilize the hurried breathing, soothe the irritated air-tube and assist in dislodging the phlegm which stops up the air-passages. This treatment has proved wonderfully efficient in not only curing old settled coughs and colds, but asthma of many years' standing, and even when patients who were in so bad a state as not able to lie down on their beds lest they be choked by phlegm. DERANGEM liNT &. DISTENSION OF THE BOWELS. FLATULENCY, DIARRHCEA, AND DYSENTERY. Any symptoms of the above complaints should be im- mediately met by appropriate doses of these Pills, according to the printed directions: delay may be followed by disastrous consequences. These Fills are a certain remedy for all the ailments of the alimentary canal, they secure the tbo ough digestion of the food and act most kindly on the stomach, liver, bowels, and kid- neys. As a household medicine they are unrivalled, and should always be at hand. VERY IM PORT A NT. OF COSTIVENESS BEWARE. Rarely but little notice is taken of costiveness, yet, at certain periods it is a sure sign that danger is near. All who are seized with apoplexy and paralysis, have pre. viously suffered from costiveness. In the former case, the blood flies to the head, a small vein is ruptured on the brain, and we know the rest. Let wives counsel their husbands, and husbands their wives, never to go to bed a second night, if the bowels have not been properly moved during the day, particularly if they feel heavv and drowsy. A few gentle doses of these fine Pills wiil regulate the circulation of the blood, and remove all dangerous symptoms. ——— Holloway's Pills are the best remedy known in the 'j world for the following diseases:— Ague |Female Irregula- Sore Throats Asthma rities Stone and Gravel BiliousCompIaintsjFits Secondary Symp- Blotches on the Gout toms skin Head-ache Tic-Douloureux Bowel Complaints jlndigestion Tumours Colics Inflammation Ulcers Constipation of the Jaundice Venereal Affec- Bowels Liver Complaints tions Consumption Lumbago Worms of all Debility Piles kinds Dropsy Rheumatism Weakness from Dysentery hetention of Urine whatever cause, Erysipelas Scrofula,or King's &c., &c.

The Proprietor has been urged to introduce this truly valuable medicine to the public by many friends whe have experienced much benefit from its use. He feels certain that it only requires publicity to ensure immense success. This preparation, as a remedy for local pains, stands unequalled amidst the many pain-destroying medicines of the present day. Its action is simple and powerful. When externally applied its effects upon the capil- laries is salutary, while it gives life and energy to the whole circulation, expelling the pain, and giving vigour and health to the entire constitution. It is safe and simple, and may be taken internally in most cases, as it materially assists its operation externally. The Canadian Speedy Relief only needs to be used by one person in a neighbourhood to make it a general favourite with all, and its result will be the means of working its own way throughout the civilised world. It can be lecominended to shipmasters and emigrants visiting tropical climates, where they are exposed to miasmatic influences. No person going anywhere to the south should be without it.

NEWS FROM AMERICA.I
NEWS FROM AMERICA. I In the letter of the Times correspondent from Phila" delphia on March 17th, we extract the following items of news While nothing that is published with reference to the proceedings of the Joint High Commission can be believed, as the injunction of secrecy respecting its delibe* rauons is strictly maintained, it is evident that it does not I progress with the rapidity anticipated. The only tilillo yet done have concerned matters of organisation and the methodical arrangement of the questions to come befare the Commission. The mode of transacting business IS formal and tedious, and the delays are increased by tbØ constant necessity of both sets of Commissioners consult>n^ their Governments, the Englishmen by the use otffi i cable, and the Americans by reference to the C'tTke j meeting# tlut Arm wirr T y- R | I public are adopting the belief that the Commis^onr'wil\ in session several months. Meanwhile, if the Commi*" sioners are to be kept a long time in Washington, they are making the best of their bad fortune by taking advan- tage of the social enjoyments offered in that city. '[b4t telegraph brings us daily accounts of elaborate dinne* parties, and to such an extent is this carried that the York Herald, thinks that in gastronomy the Commissioner* have totally eclipsed the former Americau Minister at the Court of St. James, the Hon. Reverdy Johuson. The old story of an offer to sell Cuba to the United States for $100,000,000 has this week been revived, with the addition that Porto Rico is now to be added to the offer. General Sickles, Americau Minister at Madrid, has been made the offer by the Spanish Government, Lnd has communicated it to Washington, but the President, having his hands quite full of the San Domingo matter, is not ready at present to negotiate for anymore West India Islands. The English shareholders of Erie, it seems, are not to get possession of their 60,000 shares under Judge Blatch' fordk recent decision, without a new conflict with F"* and Gould. A large number of subsidy bills have been introduced into Congress, both for the aid of railways and of steam- I ship lines. There is very little chance of any of these measures passing. One of them is for a large steamship i company to carry the mails between the United S^ate* and Europe, to be encouraged by a mail subsidy.

SOCIETIES FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF PRIGS.- When I said that there were certain institutions and societies which are very successful in the advancement and development of priggishness, I think I had in my mind specially one or two well-known societies. But the truth is, that all societies, all professions, all cliques are, to a certain extent, the natural nurseries of prigs. The outside world are civilians, or laity, or snobs they are to be looked down upon out of a wig, or a uniform, or a gown and doctor's hood. They are well enough in their places, but they are not Roman citizens. It requires, indeed, a really strong mind to be a University Don without being a prig. When men become heads of houses, or even attain an inferior posi- tion, they have a hard trial to pass through, for they suddenly find themselves little kings and priests the sacerdotal part being real, and the regal, a strange little parody of reality. All undergraduates cap them bulldogs and bedmakers conspire to do them reverence; they are surrounded, with comfort, with intellect, even perhaps with a little wisdom; they are full of the sweet cares of office, and know well the sort of sensa- tion which the possession of power induces. Most of them, I do not doubt, are straightforward English gentlemen, unspoiled by the possession of a confined authority, and the constant presence of a petty adula- tion. But there is a fair minority, I imagine, who are utterly unable to make way against the misfortune of their success. They have not strong heads, and the fumes of power soon overcome them. But of all de- lusions which destroy them, this is the worst—that they fancy their consequence goes beyond the precincts of the University. To them the whole world appears in statu papillari. They are unable to see that men, out of their own little sphere, look upon them with the calmest indifference. -Cornltill Alagazine. BREAKFAST.—EPPS'S COCOA. UKATEFUL AND COM- FORTING.—The very agreeable character of this prepara- tion has rendered it a general favourite. The Civil Servicc Gazette remarks "By a thorough knowledge of the natu- ral laws which govern the operations of digestion and nutrition, and by a careful application of the line proper- ties of well-selected cocoa, Mr. Epps has provided our breakfast tables with a delicately flavoured' beverage which may save us many heavy doctors' bills." Made simply with boiling water or milk. Sold only in tin-lined packets, labelled, James Epps and Co..Homceopathic Chemists, London. f5413 SEA Moss FABINE.—Sixteen quarts of Blanc Mange Custard, Pudding, Charlotte Russe, &c., can be made from a single packet of the American "Rand Sea Moss Farine." Its incomparable excellence and cheapness, the variety of dishes to which it is applicable, and the simplicity of pre- paration, make it the most healthful, convenient, and delicious food in the world. For Infants'. Children's, or Invalids' diet, its nourishing and health-giving properties render it preferable to all Corn-flours, Maizenas, Corn, Starches, &c. It is simple, delicate, nutritious, remedial and economical, as it can be furnished for one-half the cost of the above articles, for all of which it is more than a substitute. In Shilling Packets, of all chemists, grocers, and corn chandlers throughout the United Kingdom. Rand Sea. Moss Farine Co., 266, High Holborn, London, and Park-place, New York, U.S. Sold by J. and C. Sankey, 18, Angel-street, Cardiff. [5421 THROAT DISEASES.—BROWN'S BRONCHIAL TROCHES, which have proved so successful in America for the cure of Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness, Bronchitis, Asthma, Catarrh, or any irritation or soreness of the throat, are now imported and sold in this country at Is. lid. per box, put up in the form of a lozenge." It is the most convenient, pleasant, safe, and sure remedy for clearing and strengthening the voice known in the world. The Rev. Henry Ward Beecher says: "I have often recom- mended them to friends who were public speakers and in many cases they have proved extremely serviceable." The genuine have the words "Brown's Bronchial Troches" on the Government Stamp around each box.- Principal Office, 493, Oxford-street, London. Sold by s.11 medicine vendors. [5424 ADVICE TO MOTHERS Are you broken of your rest by a sick child, suffering with the pain of cutting toeth ? Go at once to a Chemist, and get a bottle of Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup. It will relieve the poor sufferer imme- diately it is perfectly harmless it produces natural quiet sleep, by relieving the child from pain, and the little cherub awakes as bright as a batton." It has been long in use in America, and is highly recommended by medical men • it is very pleasant to take it soothes the child it softens the gums, allays all pain, relieves wind, regulates the bowels, and is the best known remedy for dysentry, and diarrhosa, whether arising from teething or other causes. Be sure and ask for Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup, and see that Curtis and Perkins, New York and London" is on the outside wrapper. No mother should be without it. —Sold by all medicine dealers at Is. 1M. per Bottle, London Depôt, 493, Oxford St. [5422 A DELICACY FOR THE HEALTHY.—A NUTRITIOUS FOOD FOR THE INVALID. Preparations of farinaceous food have formed an important article of commerce for some time past, but the latest kind introduced is likely to exceed all others in value. The name oi It-" British, Corn Flour prepared from Rice" sounds somewhat I anomalous; we are apt to regard corn as simply in- cluding maize, wheat, barley, and oats but the manu- facturers, in applying the name to their rice food, have used the word in its more universal, and we (night say, original sense, as designating a.11 the seeds employed for making bread or cake; thus the title "Corn Moiir pre- pared from Rice" is not only permissible but sdmirablv selected. The new preparation has a special value ricc being not only more easy of digestion than any other article of food (Dr. Beaumont showing that it tT.t-cs but c.,e hour to digest, whilst even sago takes one hour and a half), but it possesses the advantage over all other grains of containing a larger proportion of fat-forming materials so that it must be allowed the ^remost nlacS amongsttamaceous foods. Uice is JL ™ S. "I" ;ks al| "mount.of nutriment of which SOTO an<i arrowroot are devoid, they being in themselves utterly incapable of supporting animal life. Like wheat, then, nee is nutntiouN, and. like arrowroot, ei.sy of digestion. Hence, lutish Corn Flour prepared from rice supplies a want that has been often felt in the sick room, and. by peisons suffering from weak stomachs namely a food that digests easily, yet containing nitrogenous matters capable of nourishing every part of the body. Wheip it is said that the manufacturers of the new preparation aie the eminent firm of J. and J Column (the well- known manufacturers of mustard), and that they have laboured many years to bring their corn Hour to per- fection, it hardly needs the high testimony that has been given by Drs. Lankester, Hassall, Cameron, and i Muspratt to vouch for its purity and genuineness. As a diet for invalids, convalescents, and infants, it is simply invaluable, while as a pleasant addition to the dinner tables of the healthy, in the form of blanc-maiU'e, sustards and puddings, J. and J. Colnian's British Corn Flour prepared from rice is that rare blessing, an unadulterated luxury.—Morning Post.

0KNTRAL CTTAM !!■ If Oi- l AGRICULTURE. A meeting of the Central Council of this Chamber was held on Tuesday, at the Salisbury Hotel, London, Sir Massev Lopes, Bart., in the chair. On the motion of Mr. Albert Pell, M. P., and duly seconded, Lord dt Tahley was elected a member. The report (if the committee on the Laws and Constitu- tion and Laws of Association of the Central Chamber was brought up, and ordered to be printed and circuited amongst the members of the Central and Local Chambers. The following report of the Local Taxation Committee was read :The committee regret that the bill promised by the Government has not yet lii.nle its appearance, but the President of the Poor-law Board was expec e to Lty" it, 011 the table of the House ot Commons on that day. The committee would at once puiceed carefully to exa- mille its provisions, and recommend the provincial Chambers as early as possible to can their members toge- ther for the purpose of discussing the principle contained in the bit,, and would further sugge t that the meeting of the Central Chamber in May should lie devoted to the consideration of this subject, as being one of paramount necessity and importance. The committee would beg to call attention to a rtent return (No 437) issued by the Poor-law Hoard, which professes to com- pare rates levied in rural unions with those levied in urban unions. The committee consider it delusive and fadacious, that it is calculated to mislead and give false impressions, and if the Government measure be drawn up 0\1 the statements and figures therein contained, the com- mittee are of opinion that it will be founded on false pre- mises. In this return those rates which are p irely local and those which are nation?1 in their objects are confused together. Rates l;vied under local improvement acts for paving and li^ht- i 1 for burial hoards, baths, and washhouses are exclu- sively local requirements, and the substitutes for these in rural districts are provided from private sources. The r ites in the town unions are thus swelled to 4s. in the p .und, whilst in the rural unions they are shewn as 28 9fd. The chairman pointed out this error to the Secretary to the Poor Jaw Board, who has promised to furnish a separate and more correct return, from which it will appear that the rate in the pound levied for all purposes of the poor rate assessment for 1868 and 1869 is 2s. 4?d. in the rural unions, instea.d of 2. 9^1. 4 whilst in the town unions it is 2s. 6d., instead of 4s. the general average being 2s. 3d. instead of 3s. 4d. For relief of the poor only the rate is Is. 5Jd. in the pound for rural unions, and Is. 7 ide for town unions. Indepen- dently of this, the greater part of the high- way rate levied separately by poor rate assess- ment from rural districts amounts to £ 917,000, which would very materially increase the rates levied on the rural districts. The committee can hardly suppose that this return has been designedly rendered so delusive, but it seems to indicate a most unmistakeable anunus and bias, as the committee also have reason to believe that their representations have caused the withdrawal from the Coroners' Bill of the charge which provided that superannuation allowances should be paid out of the rates and they would direct attention to Clause 9 of the Pauper Inmates Discharge and Regulation Bill, which ordered that Boards of Guardians should provide proper casual wards, and should they fail to do so they would not not be entitled to repayment from Parliament- ary grants. In this way the committee intended to con- tinue strenuously to oppose both in th-e House of Com- mons and elsewhere any attemuts to throw increased bur- thens upon the rates. Professor Bunn moved the adoption of the report, which was seconded by Mr. Horlev, and carried. Several members expressed their dissatisfaction at the speech of Mr. Goschen on the character of the Local Tax- ation Bill. Mr. C. S. Read, M.P., moved, and Mr. H. G. Andrews seconded, that after the conclusion of the busi- ness that day, the meeting should adjourn to Saturday, April 20. The motion was carried, and Mr. H. Neild moved, and Mr. G. F. Muntz seconded, that the May Council Meeting shall extend over two days, and that the Government local taxation measure shall be the first subject then considered.—Carried. Mr. Russon proposed a resolution to the effect that this Chamber considers the present system of assessing the property and income-tax under schedules A and B, and the house duty, most arbitrary and unjust, inasmuch as it gave surveyors of taxes inducements to make excessive surcharges for which there were no reasonable grounds, and accordingly great inconvenience and annoyance by obliging parties to appeal against the assessment. Mr. Hodsall seconded the resolution. The resolution was carried with the adoption of the words of a resolution passed by the Warwickshire Cham- ber to this effect, that where persons were surcharged without just cause the expense should be borne by the parties making the assessment. j After the discussion of some minor matters, the meeting adjourned.

I am against the excessive preservation of game, believing it to be incompatible with justice to the occupier. I will also give my warm support to any measure which has for its object the adjustment of loc^ taxation, the pressure of which is so severely felt. shall also consider it my duty to support such vaeA sures as are calculated to place this country in. state of security against foreign invasion, and to main" tain that high position it has so long held among the nttiollg of the world. Mr. Gurdon. the Liberal candidate describe himself as a Liberal by birth, education, and donviction. Mr. Gurdon adds I am in favour of the establish- ment of Financial Boards and the repeal of the malt-t^ The simplest solution of the vexed question of tb? Game Laws appears to me to be the removal of hares a" rabbits from their protection, and I shall be ready to gi": support to any measure having this object. I have no sy1^' pathy with those who are periodically panicstricken WIt the idea that Lngland is going to be invaded by son1, foreign army, but I wish to see our defensive forces plaCt>s and kept 111 such a state of efficiency as to make such alar111 absurd.
