DURING a period of more than forty years this Jt_7 valuable medicine has triumphantly borne the severest test of public opinion, and upon that sound basis alone, it has gradually but surely won its way to pre-eminence, until it is now universally acknowledged to be the most effectual, safe, and speedy remedy ever offered to the world for that large class of disease which affects the Pul- monary orans. KEATING'S COUGH LOZENGES have been proved by long experience to be equally efficacious and powerful in those severer forms of Pulmonic Affections—Asthma, Inci- pient Consumption, Chronic Bronchitis, and Spasmodic Cough; as in the milder, but often not less troublesome dis- orders of the Throat and Chest, Winter Cough, Hoarseness, difficulty of Breathing, and Irritation of the Throat. KEAT- ING'S COUGH LOZENGES are held in the highest esteem by Public Speakers, Clergymen, and Professional Singers; but, perhaps, the high approval which is bestowed upon these Lozenges by some of the most eminent of the Faculty, is the best and most convincing guarantee of their safety, efficacy, and purity. Prepared and sold in Boxes, Is. lid. and Tins, 2s. 9d., 4s. 6d. and 10s. 6d. each, by THOMAS KEATING, Chemist, &c., No. 79, St. Paul's Churchyard, London. Sold retail by all Druggists, &c.,in the whole world. N.B.—To prevent spurious imitations, please to observe that the words" Keating's Cough Lozenges" are engraven on the Government Stamp of each Box, without which none are genuine. VALUABLE TESTIMONIALS. 34, Wine-street, Bristol, August 7, 1853. SIR,—It is with much pleasure I have to inform you of the benefit I received from your Lozenges. I was attacked with the typhus fever, during which time I had a violent cough, so that it kept me awake the greater part of the night. A friend persuaded me to try a box of your "COUGH LO- ZENGES," which I did, and am happy to say that with only one box of your valuable compound I was quite free from my cough. You can make what use of this you please, for I think such a valuable medicine ought not to go unnoticed. I remain, Sir, your obedient servant, War. T. TRUSCOTT. Mr. Keating, 79, St. Paul's Churchyard, London. CURE OF ASTHMA OF SEVERAL YEARS STANDING. Caiuscross, near Stroud, Gloucestershire, March 20. 1850. Sir,—Having been troubled with Asthma for several years, I could find no relief from any medicine whatever, until I was induced about two years ago to try a box of your valua- ble Lozenges, and found such relief from them that I am determined for the future never to be without a box of them in the house, and will do all in my power to recommend them to my friends. If you consider the above Testimonial of any advantage, you are quite at liberty to make-what use of it you please. I am, Sir, Your most obliged Servant, Thomas Keating, Esq. W. J. TRIGG. AGENTS.

Magdeburg, 16, Sep., 1853. My wtfe, havm suffered for years from a pulmonary com- plaint, became so ill at the beginning of this year, that I looked daily for her dissolution. The remedies which hither- to had relieved her remained now without effect and the ulcerations of the lungs and night sweats debilitated her fearfully. It was in this, evidently the last and hopeless stage of pulmonary consumption, when every medicine re- mained powerless in even affording temporary relief-that I was induced by a medical brother from Hanover, who makes pulmonary consumption his special study, and treats it with Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica, to try the strengthen- ig Lid restorative food, ad I am happy to be ,M„ .0 ex- press my astonishment at its effects. My poor wife is now in as perfect a state of health as ever she was, attending to her household affairs and quite happy. It is with pleasure and the most sincere gratitude to God for the restoration of my wife, that I fulfil my duty of making the extraordinary efficacy of Du Barry's Revalenta, in so fearful a complaint, known and to recommend it to all other sufferers. GRIES, M.D. CERTIFICATE FROM DR. GATTIKER. Zurich, 3 Sep., 1853. I have tried Du Parry's Revalenta Arabica for a com- plaint which had hitherto resisted all other remedies—viz. CANCER OF THE STOMACH and I am happy to say, with the most successful result. This soothing remedy has the effect, not only of arresting the vomiting, which is so fear- fully distressing in cancer of the stomach, but also of restor- ing perfect digestion and assimilation. The same satis- factory influence of this excellent remedy I have found in all complaints of the digestive organs it has also proved effectual in a most obstinate case of habitual flatulence and colic of many years standing. I look upon this delicious Food as the most excellent restorative gift of nature. DR. GATTIKER. Plymouth, May 9th, 1851. For the last ten years I have been suffering from dys- pepsia, headaches, nervousness, low spirits, sleeplesness, and delusions, and swallowed an incredible amount of me- dicine without relief. I am happy to say that your Food has cured me, and I am now enjoying better health than I have had for many years past. J. S. NEWTON. Devon Cottage, Bromley, Middlesex, March 31, 1849. GENTLEMEN,—The lady for whom I ordered your food was suffering severely from indigestion, constipation, throw- ing up her meals shortly after eating them, having a great deal of heartburn, and being constantly obliged to have recourse to physic. I am happy to inform you that your food produced immediate relief. She has never been sick since, had but little heartburn, and the functions are more regular, &c. You are at liberty to publish this letter, if you think it will tend to the benefit of any other sufferer. THOMAS WOODHOUSE. DR. WURZER'S TESTIMONIAL. Bonn, 19th July, 1853. This light and pleasant Farina is one of the most excel- lent, nourishing, and restorative remedies, and supersedes' in many cases, all kinds of medicines. It is particularly useful in confined habit of body, as also in diarrhoea, bowel complaints, affections of the kidneys, such as stone or gravel inflammatory irritation and cramp of the urethra, cramp of the kidneys and strictures, and hae- morrhoids. This really invaluable remedy is employed with the most satisfactory result, not only in bronchial and pulmonary complaints, where irritation and pain are to be removed, but also in pulmonary and bronchial consumption, in which it counteracts effectually the troublesome cough and I am enabled with perfect truth to express the convic- tion that Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica is adapted to the cure of incipient hectic complaints and consumption.

Curtis.—We agree with the Author that, o far from works of this class being objectionable in the hands so youth, or difficulties being opposed, every facility should be given to their circulation; and to strengthen our opinion we need but rfer to the recent distressing events at our Military and scholastic Academies at Carshaltonand Woolwich."—NAVAL AND MILITARY GAZETTE, 1ST FEB., 1851. We feel no hesitation in saying, that there is no member of society bv whom the book will not be found useful—whether such person hold the relation of a parent, preceptor, or a clergyman."— SUN, Evening Paper. Many of our most eminent Physicians testify that the practice of these delusive habits, so justly condemned by the author, is a greater source of derangement than all others, and, as is also observed by the truly intelligent superintendents of our Private Lunatic Asylums and Insane Hospitals ,is probably the chief cause of many patients being brought there, and almost an insuperable obstacle to their recovery."—MEDICAL REVIKW. Curtis on Manhood.—Fortunate for a country would it be, did its youth put into practice the philanthropic and scientific maxims here laid down-one caue of matrimonial misery might then be banished from our land, and the race of the enervate be succeeded by a re- newal of the hardy, vigorous spirits of the olden time."—CHRONICLE Published by the AUTHOR sold also in sealed envelopes by Sherwood, Piper & Co., 23, Paternoster-row HANNAY, 63 Oxford-St. MANN, 39, Cornhill, London; GUEST, Bull-St., Birmingham; HEYWOOD, Oldham-street, Manchester; How: ELL, 6, Church-street, Liverpool; CAMPBELL, 136, Argyle- street, Glasgow; ROBINSON, 11, Greenside-street, Edin- burgh BERRY and Co., 162, Great Britain-street, Dublin: Cambrian Office, Swansea; J.

SURPRISING CURE OF A CONFIRMED ASTHMA, AFTER FIYE YEARS' SUFFERING. The following testimonial has been sent to Professor Holloway, by a Gentleman named Middleton, of Scotland Road, Liver- pool. Sir.-Your Pills have been the means, under providence, of restoring me to sound health after five years of severe affliction. During the whole of that period, I suffered the most dreadful attacks of Asthma, frequently of several weeks' duration, attended with a violent cough, and continual spitting of phlegm intermixed with blood. This so shook my constitution that I was unfitted for any of the active duties of life. I was attended by some of the most eminent medical men of this town, but they failed to give me the slightest relief. As a last remedy I tried your Pills, and in about three months they effected a perfect cure of the disease, totally eradicated the cough, and restored tone and vigour to the chest and digestive organs. I am, Sir, your obedient Servant, Dated Jan. 1st, 1853. (Signed) H. MIDDLETON. A PERMANENT CURE OF A DISEASED LIYER, OF MANY YEARS' DURATION. Copy of a Letter from Mr. Ganis, Chemist, Yeovil, to Professor Holloway. Dear Sir.-In this district your Pills command a more extensive sale than any other proprietary medicine before the public. As a proof of their efficacy in Liver and Bilious Complaints I may mention the following case. A lady of this town with whom I am personally acquainted, for years was a severe sufferer from disease of the Liver and digestive organs: her medical attendant assured her that he could do nothing to relieve her sufferings, and it was not likely she could survive many months. This announcement naturally caused great alarm among her friends and relations, and they induced her to make a trial of your Pills, which so im- proved her general health that she was induced to continue them until she received a perfect cure. This is twelve months ago, and she has not experienced any symptoms of relapse, and often declares that your Pills have been the means, of saving her life. I remain, Dear Sir, yours truly, Nov. 23rd, 1852. (Signed) J. GAMIS. AN ASTONISHING CURE OF CHRONIC RHEUMATISM, AFTER BEING DISCHARGED FROM THE HOSPITAL INCURABLE. Copy of a Letter from Mr. W. Moon, of the Square, Winchester. To PROFESSOR HOLLOWAY, Sir,—I beg to inform you that for years I was a sufferer from Chronic Rheumatism, and was often laid up for weeks together by its severe and painful attacks. I tried every thing that was recommended, and was attended by one of the most eminent Surgeons in this town but obtained no relief whatever, and fearing that my health would be entirely broken up, I was induced to go into our County Hospital where I had the best medical treatment the Institution afforded, all of which proved of no avail, and I came out no better than I went in. I was then advised to try your Pills, and by persevering with them was perfectly cured, and enabled to resume my occupation, and although a consi- derable period has elapsed, I have felt no return whatever of the complaint. I am, Sir, your obliged Servant, Oct. 8th, 1852. (Signed) W. MOON. AN EXTRAORDINARY CURE OF DROPSY, AFTER SUFFERING FOR EIGHTEEN MONTHS. Copy of a lettet- from Mr. G. Briggs, Chemist, Goole, dated February 15th, 1853. To PROFESSOR HOLLOWAY. Sir-I have much pleasure in informing you of a most surprising cure of Dropsy, recently effected by your valuable medicines. Captain Jackson, of this place, was afflicted with Dropsy for upwards of eighteen months, to such an extent that it caused his body and limbs to be much swollen, and water oozed as it were from his skin, so that a daily change of apparel became necessary, notwithstanding the various remedies tried, and the different medical men con- sulted, all was of no avail, until he commenced using your Pills, by which, and a strict attention to the printed direc- tions, he was effectually cured, and his health perfectly re- established. If yon deem this worthy of publicity, you are at liberty to use it. I am, Sir, yours respectfully, (Signed) G. BRIGGS. These celebrated Pills are wonderfully efficacious in the following complaints. Ague Dropsy Inflammation Stone and Asthma Dysentery Jaundice Gravel Bilious ComplaintsErysipelas Liver Com- Tic Doloureux Blotches on the Female irregu- plaints Tumours fckin larities Lumbago Ulcers Bowel Complaints Fevers of all Piles Worms of all Colics kinds Rheumatism kinds Constipation of the Fits Scrofula, or Weakness, from Bowels Gout king's Evil whatever cause Consumption Head-ache Sore Throats &c. &c.

Smith Esq 13, St. Mark's-terrace, West Brompton, London, 10th May, 1852. "Sir,—Ten years ago I was induced to give you my opi- nion, founded on experience of the merits of Frampton's Pill of Health. I am pleased at your having published that plain statement, by which I hope others have been induced to try so effective a medicine. Anxious cares and the neglect of my old tried friend during the early part of this year had produced symptoms of uneasiness which I found it prudent no longer to neglect and I am delighted to say that a few doses of the pills, under the blessing ofMivine providence, has removed, and I am again as well as I ever was in my life. WM. SMITH." These Pills are particularly efficacious for Stomach Coughs, Colds, Agues, Shortness of Breath, and all Obstructions of the Urinary Passages and, if taken after too free an indul- gence at table, they quickly restore the system to its natural state of repose. Persons of a FULL HABIT, who are subject to Head- ache, Giddiness, Drowsiness, and Singing in the Ears, arising from too great a flow of Blood to the Head, should never be without them, as many dangerous symptoms will be entirely carried off by their immediate use. For FEMALES, these Pills are most truly excellent, re- moving all obstructions, the distressing Head-ache so very prevalent with the sex Depression of Spirits, Dulness of Sight, Nervous Affections, Blotches, Pimples, and Sallow- ness of the Skin, and give a healthy and juvenile bloom to the complexion. To MOTHERS they are confidently recommended as the best medicine that can be taken during pregnancy; and for children of all ages they are unequalled. As a pleasant, safe, and ray Aperient, they unite the recommendation of a mild operation with the most successful effect. By regulating the dose, according to the age and strength of the patient, they become suitable for every case, in either sex, that can be required. Sold by T. Prout, 229, Strand, London. Price Is.

I MISCELLANEOUS INTELLIGENCE. I Three important election petitions remain for decision- viz., Clitheroe, Sligo, and Chatham. It is probable that Sir Baldwin Leighton, Bart., will offpr himself as a candidate for the representation of South Shrop- shire. It is also said that intimations have been conveyed to Mr. Robert Clive, member for Ludlow, that he would meet the wishes of those most interested in the district, by offering himself as the successor of his father in the repre- sentation. A circular memorandum from the Horse Guards, dated 13th of January, directs that in the event of troops beinu cailed out in aid of the civil power, the officer commanding, shall immediately report the same by telegraph to the mi- litary secretary. A little girl named Harriet Chester, aged 15 years, was stealing coal from a truck at the Bootle station, on Friday last, when the train suddenly started, and she was caught on the neck by a buffer and killefi instantly. Mr. E. T. Smith, the lessee of Drury-lane, has purchased the extensive freehold estates on which Shadwell workhouse stands, for the purpose of erecting a large and commodious theatre, for the east-end of London. The Scientific American states on reliable authority, that if at two feet above the throat of the chimney you enlarge the opening to double the «iaef for the space of two feet, then carry up the rest as at first, your chimney will not smoke. Among the lecturers announced for the year at the Man- chester Athenaeum are the following members of Parlia- ment—Lord Stanley, Mr. Napier, Mr. Walter, Mr. Keogh, Lord Goderich, Mr. Isaac Butt, and Mr. Monckton Milnes. The Carlisle Patriot records the death, in the village of Gaitsgill, of Mrs. Dorothy Simpson, in her 104th year. She retained her faculties until the last moment of life. Mr. Collinson, a farmer of Teesdale, perished in the recent snow storm. His faithful dog remained by him, scraped the snow from his face, nestled on his breast, and never left his corpse till the searchers approached. It is stated that an engagement has been concluded with Madame Goldschmidt (Jenny Liml) to appear in concerts in London for six months, during the approaching season. The preliminary terms are stated at X25,000. The bank of England has given notice that after the 1st of March next, the hours of commencing public business in that establishment will be 10 o'clock, a. m., instead of nine, as heretofore. It may be assumed that a similar course will be adopted bp the private and joint-stock banks generally. It is stated that the late Marshal Beresford has bequeathed his estates in the county of Carlow, together with a sum of £ 15,000, to the eldest son of one of his gallant companions in many a hard fought field, the late General Sir Denis Pack, of the county of Kilkenny. The money is to be expended in building a suitable residence on the property. An eccentric character at Luton, Beds, named Adams, and who has earned considerable notoriety as a street lecturer against drunkenness, resolved to die by starvation. He fastened the doors of his house and nailed down the windows. After being thus shut up for a week, a constable forced an entrance, and found Adams in the last stage of starvation. He is likely to recover. A patent for the manufacture of paper from wood fibre has been taken out by Messrs. Watt and Burgess, to whom the public is indebted for many valuable discoveries in che- mistry. The paper produced from the wood fibre is declared to be equal to any sample of writing paper now selling at 7d. per lb.. The cost of production is stated to be somewhat under zC25 per ton, which is a saving of more than £ 12 upon the price per ton of the rag paper now in use. A communication has been addressed from the General Post Office to Railway Companies complaining of the serious and long-continued irregularity in the mail trains between London and the North. GOLD DIGGINGS—A letter was received last week by Mr. Slater, of Bassenthwaite, near Keswick, from his son, who has been for the last three years in Australia, which stated that a few days before the date of his letter he had got, in a few hours' work, in a quarry, part of which he was en- gaged in blasting, as much quartz as produced £2,235 worth of gold.— Westmoreland Gazette. FATAL ACCIDENT OX THE BRISTOL AND EXETER RAIL- WAY.- On Thursday an inquest was held at Biistol on the body of a man, named Maclenan, a portei on the Bristol and Exeter Railway, who was killed hy a goods train, the roaring of a high wind preventing hi* hearing the train until too late to get out of the way. Verdict, acci- dental death." ACCIDEXT ON BOARD A MAIL STF-k-,IFlt.-Tiic Evening PaeketofFriday nisrht says The niaii steamer which ar- rived this day from Holyhead was several hours behind time, owing to the force of the gales; and by a sea which dashed over the vessel, the third mate was thrown about with such violence as to be killed on the spot, his skull having been fractured. The steamer due last evening in Kingstown at half-past ten o'clock did not arrive until two o'clock in the monntMr. So violent was the gate in the Channel yes- terday morning, that the steamer which left Kingstown at nine o'clock A.m., lost her bulwarks on the passage to Holyhead. FATAL ACCIDENT AT PIMLICO.— A fatal accident took place on the 26th inst., on the premises of Messrs. Kelk and Co., at Eccleston-bridge, Pimlico. A number of men have for some time been engaged in erecting a massive machine at the wharf. Directions had been given to have some heavy stones, weighing several tons, unloaded. For this purpose three men were sent yesterday upon the scaffold to work the machinery, and others were engaged in the barges fixing the chains round the stones. While they were so oc- cupied, and when a stone weighing about six tons was being lifted, the frontage of the scaffold, and an iron box, contain- ing three men, came down. The men in the barges were not hurt, but those who fell from the scaffold were imbedded I among the mass of stone and the shattered ironwork, which fell upon them. A man named David Connor fell into the barge, and was crushed by the heavy machinery which fell upon him. A man iia?n?i Hatherway had his thighs broken, and was otherwise seriously Injured: and a third man was also much hurt. A long time elapsed before the body of Connor could be extricated from the mass of iron which had fallen upon him. Connor has left a wife and two children. THE ANTIQUITY OF BEER. The Ancient Britons had many vines, but they esteemed them only as ornaments to their gardens and they preferred, says Ceesar, the wine of grain to that of grapes. It is historically demonstrated that the English, at a very early epoch, applied themselves to the making of beer. It is mentioned by the laws of Ina, Chief or King of It essex and this liquor held a distinguished rank among those that appeared at a royal feast in the reign of Edward the Confessor. Under the Normans, ale ac- quired a reputation it has ever since maintained. Two gallons cost only one penny in the cities; in the country, four gallons might be obtained at the same price. Happy age happy ale drinkers At that period-the golden age for the aportles of the Britannic Bacchus the brewers rendered no account of the preparations of this beloved beverage. The English nation did not yet purchase the right of intoxicating themselves it was not till the year 1643 that this authorization was to be soughr. Soyer's Pantropheon. ACCIDENT ON THE MIDLAND RAILWAY.—A somewhat serious aceident occurred near the Cudworth (Barnsley) station of the Midland Railway on Wednesday night the 25th inst. It appears that on that evening James Price, the driver of a mail gig or cart, went from Barnsley to Cudworth with the letter-bags to meet the up mail from Leeds, due at Cudworth station at 24 minutes past 9. On arriving at the station, the horse and vehicle, as was the practice, were put into the goods shed. The company's watchman being there at the time pulled the door to, saying to Price, Now stop thee there, and I will do thy work for thee," meaning he would get his letters for him. Price says that shortly after this, on his opening the shed door, the horse got out before he was aware and galloped on the line, and while he was running after it the train came up and ran over both horse and vehicle. The concussion was such that the whole of the carriages were thrown off the line, and the rails for a considerable distance on both sides were torn up. Two second-class carriages were broken to pieces- Fortunately both carriages were without passengers, containing only some carcases of sheep for London. Other four or five car- riages were more or less injured but fortunately the chain of the engine (which kept on the line) broke, otherwise the loss of life must have been considerable, there being about 50 passengers in the train. Information of the accident was instantly telegraphed to Derby, when Mr. Bes»vick, inspector, and ajbody of labourers, soon arrived at the scene of demolition, and by five o'clock in the morning they were able to start the train for the south; and by 10 o clock in the forenoon the rails were made so far good that the trains could proceed in the usual way. The damage done is sup- posed to be upwards of LI,000 Mr. Smith's loss, in the mail-gig and horse, is £50. The gig was broken to atoms, and the horse cut to pieces. Price, for whom search was made, was found secreted in a hedge bottom, about 20 yards from where the accident occurred, and placed in the cus- tody of Mr. Green, superintendent-constable of the Barnsley Lock-up. He was taken before Mr. Taylor, one of the West Riding magistrates, on Thursday, and remanded. The intelligent portion of the public can no longer remain inattentive to the convincing personal evidence which has been given by FIFTY THOUSAND respectable individuals, as to the extraordidary cures effected by Messrs. DU BARRY'S REVALENTA ARABICA FOOD, in various stages of the undermentioned maladies, and after medicine had utterly failed, or had, in many cases, aggravated the original symptoms: dyspepsia (indigestion), constipation, functional irregularity, obstructions, acidity, cramps, spasms fits, heartburn, diarrhoea, nervousness, biliousness, affec- tions of the liver and kidneys, flatulency, distension, palpita- tion of the heart, nervous headache, deafness, noises in the head and ears, giddiness, pains between the shoulders, and in almost every part of the body, chronic inflammation and ulceration of the stomach, eruptions on the skin, scurvy fever, scrofula, impurities, poverty of blood, consumption (if not beyond human aid), dropsy, rheumatism, gout, influenza, grippe, nausea and vomiting after eating, or at sea, low spirits, spleen, general debility, paralysis, cough, asthma, tightness across the chest, phlegm, inquietude, sleeplessness, involuntary blushing, tremors, dislike to society, unfitness for study, delusions, loss of memory, vertigo, blood to the head, exhaustion, melan- choly, groundless fear, indecision, wretchedness, thoughts of self-destruction, &c. Amongst those who have joined in this magnificent testimonial of graltude are such men as the Right Hon. Lord Stuart de Decies, the Venerable Aley. Stuart, Archdeacon of lioss; Major-General King Captain Parker Bingham, R.N., &c., &c. The catalogue likewise includes the names of hundreds of ladies, who, with a noble resolution, overcoming for humanity's sake their natural repugnance to publicity, have come forward to describe their long-continued suttenngs under the anguish of disease, and the misery of fruitless medicine-taking, and their final deli- very from all this wretchedness by the use of the light and agreeable Revalenta Food. In numbers of instances it has been the salvation of delicate nurses and in- fants; and the duration of ch!onic diseases, which it has effectually overcome (after all other methods of cure had been used in vain) was, in some cases, upwards of sixty years.

Mr. George Roe, the Chairman of the Executive Committee, stated at the last general meeting of the Royal Dublin So- ciety, that Mr. Dargan's losses by the Exhibition amount to little short of £ 20,000. Loss OF ANOTHER SHIP.—On Thursday night the screw steamship PetereL which was recently engaged in the New "York and Bermuda trade, was totally destroyed by fire, out- side the dry dock, Glasgow. Her loss is covered by an insurance for £12,000. She had been taken off the Ber- muda station, owing to her lare size not being suitable for the trade, and had been only sold a few davs previously to Messrs. Burns and M' lver. of this port, for £ 20,000.' Luckily, however, for that firm, they h.i l not taken posses, sion of the vessel, nor had the neceBsurv engagements been completed. FATAL GUN ACCIDrlT.-Oi Fri,],tv afl<-rnoon an inquest was held at Sandpits-inn, near Worcester, before Mr \V. S. P. Hughes, county coroner, on the holy of Willi,.in Bonn a gamekeeper in the service of Mr. Pierpoint. of Crous- nest-house, who was shot on the previous day while out rab- bit shooting. The deceased had taken wit h him three I)er- sons to kill the rabbits, and it appears that one of them. named Charles Skinner, had a double barrelled gun. A ferret had been put into a rabbit hole, and had seized a rabbit which had got to the mouth of the hole, when Skinner ran up to seize it. This was on the edge of a and the dc- ceased was upon some higher ground, just above Skinner. In the excitement of seizing the rabbit, Skinner's gun got entangled among some thorns, which caught the trigger, and the gun exploded, shooting Bevan through the bnd 'so'tliat he immediately fell a corpse at Skinner's feet. A verdict of Accidental death" was recorded. PRINCE ALBERT.—On the subject of the Prince Consort's alleged interference in matters of State, The Times ob- servesWe must apologize to our readers for troubling them with another word upon the odious calumnies which have been lately set on foot with regard to the Prince Con- sort. One of these precious inventions—it was just as good as any of them—was, that Prince Albert was in intimate correspondence with our ambassador at Vienra, Lord West- morland. However the foreign-office might seem to manage the business of the nation in external matters, it was, in point of fact. the Prince Consort who really pulled the strings at Vienna—or elsewhere—and all for the interest of the House of Coburg. With regard to Vienna, the accusa- sation was a special one, and aia-; called forth a special reply from Lord Westmorland himself. One of our contempo- raries, which has earned an unenviable notoriety by dissem- inating this scandal, stated that if Lord Westmorland would speak out, he could a tale unfold. He has done so, and hero is the resiilt I have not had any communication, directly or indirectly, with the illustrious personage ailuded to since I came to Vienna. I never received a letter from the Prince containing one word upon politics, public men, or public affairs. The only letters with which his Royal Highness has honoured me have related to matters of art and bene- volence.' EXPENSE OF THE PROBABLE WAR.—A rumour has been circulated on the Paris Bourse that the expenses of the war against Russia are to be met by a joint loan of X 16,000,000 sterling to England and France. This loan, it is said, is to be issued at 78, as a medium between the prices of the French Threes and the English Consols. Such an arrangement would doubtless suit the various financial houses on both sides, eager for commissions, but, except in the wishes of those persons, it can certainly have no foundation. The chief cause of the calm confidence with which the people of England look upon the struggle on which they are about to enter is the conviction that the experience of the last war, and the subsequent spread of clear economical views, will prevent all attempt to provide the cost by unsound ex- pedients of any kind. If the amount wanted from time to time be raised in a rational manner, in the open market, and expended only by our own people, a few millions will, it is felt, go a long way towards the maintenance of an irresisti- ble force but if the idea were to prevail that the old system of raising money by the issue of large sums of stock at prices below par and of subsidizing foreign nations will be resorted to, there would at once be an end to this conviction. The rumour in question comprises as much of the two evils as could have been condensed into a single proposal, since it assumes that the governments are to receive only £ 78 for their liability to pay £ 100, and that England is to be content to raise her £S,OOO,OOO at a price 10 or 12 per cent, below what she could otherwise get, in order that France may contract her share 011 terms just as much above the rale that is available in her own market. This would simply be a subsidy, with the disadvantage of clumsincss, and flJP )1),111 mOI1!{er. whose instincts are developing themselves earlv, must devise something better if they expect their statements to find currencv even for 11 day. A far as England is con- cerned, moreover, it is not yet certain that an immediate sutplus of revenue, coupled with a determination on the part of the people to submit to any necessary increase of taxation for the future, may not be sufficient to carry its through without creating additional burdens for posterity. At all event. if none but legitimate loans are resorted to, the belief may fairly be entertained that such amounts as would otherwise have been absorbed from us by Austria and Russfa during the current year will be more than sufficient for every purpose.—Times. THE CZAR AND THE CITIZEN. The following extract from a private letter from St. Petersburg is given in the Xcw York Tribune.—"The last grand manoeuvres of the Impe- rial Guards and the corps of the Grenadiers in the plains of Krasnoe Solo (Red Village) were very brilliant, and at- tracted a great number of German princes, with some Eng- lish lords and other distinguished foreigners. During one of the final days of this gathering there appeared among the resplendent cortege of the Emperor, mounted on a horse from the Imperial stables, a short, thick-se; person in a black frock coat and black hat- in a woi d, dressed like a simple civilian or pckin-accompanied by a high official from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in the full embroidered uniform of a Councillor of State. Both came from the house kept there by the Emperor for distinguished visi- tors, and joined the numerous suite of the Czar. Every- body was puzzled at this unwonted spectacle. But what was the general astonishment when, towards the end of the parade, the Emperor, himself a giant, mounted on a gigantic horse, politely approached the black-coated little civilian, and, bending down to the neck of his steed, began a conver- sation in English, of which, having gathered several sen- tences, I am able to transmit them to you. Very happy to see you, Mr. Douglas,' began the Emperor. You come from the South, from Odessa, and have traversed Russia. What are your impressions?' 'Your Majesty,'answered the black man, whom we had now discovered to be an emi- nent American senator, I have seen your empire, and I have also seen the west of Europe. There I saw the past, and here I see the future. Not so bad for a Republicari. You come from Constantinople,' said the Czar. They speak badly of me there. Do you bring from there peace or war?' 'Both are in the hands of your Majesty.' The Emperor in the most amiable and enchanting manner, ex- cused himself for not receiving personally in St. Petersburg the distinguished senator from a country which he admired, but he several times said to his guet that if he wished any- thing specially, he (the Emperor) would be very happy to oblige him, and that orders had been given that every object which the senator might desire to visit or see, should be opened to him. The conversation lasted for 20 minutes; and seldom has the Czar been more gracious to any visitor, no matter what his rank. As I afterwards ascertained, this interview was specially arranged by Count Nesseirode, who also procured permission, asked of him by Mr. Douglas, to appear in a black suit before the Autocrat. This was not considered objectionable by either the Minister or the Sovereign, on the ground, at I learn, that the Americans, when visiting their President, wear no uniforms. It was by the order of the Emperor that rooms were prepared in Krasnoe Selo for the reception of this gentleman. I am told that he was very much pleased with his visit in our dear Russia, and among other things, found a great resem- blance between our plains and the west of America. A Mayor of one of the Communes in France lately made the following entry upon the register: 11 1, Mayor of found yesterday, in the forest of — ,t a man by the name of Rollin, committing an act against the laws. I commanded him to surrender, wheieupon he set upon me, heaped me with insult and contumely, calling me a raga- muffin, an ass, and a precious dolt and a scarecrow-all of which 1 certify to be true. ANOTHER ACCIDEXT ON THE MIDLAND RAILWAY.—The body of a man, shockingly mutilated, name unknown, was found on the Sheffield and Rothetham branch of the Mid- land Railway between three and four o'clock on the morning of the 24th inst by the driver of the morning mail. The obstruction had been noticed on the previous evening, but thinking it was merely a sheet that had been blown off some of the waggons, a thing of frequent occurrence in boisterous weather, none of the trains pulled up to ascertain what it was. The driver of the mail, however, having had his at- tention called to it by the stoker, as he was proceeding from Masbro' to Sheffield with a luggage train about two hours before, arranged with the guard before starting to stop at the place, which was situate near Blackburn bridge. On arriving at the spot, the body of a man was found, awfully mutilated. His legs were crushed to pieces above the knee, and hung merely by shreds of skin to the bleeding trunk. His head was also crushed to atoms, fragments of the skull and brains being scattered on the line. From the appear- ance, it seemed as if the body, after being decapitated, had been dragged fifteen or twenty yards, turned round, and the same wheel that had crushed the neati naa urOKen the legs also. The mutilated remains were gathered up and brought to Sheffield, where on Wednesday morning an inquest was held before Mr. Thomas Badger. It appeared from the evidence that John Randall, a servant in the employ of the company, saw the deceased on the line near to Jordam dam, about a quarter past five on Monday afternoon. He was in liquor, but capable of walking, Randall inquired his destina- tion, and finding he was going to Sheffield, took him off the line and placed him in the right direction. A short time afterwards Randall saw him on the banks of the Don, which flows near the railway. He led him away from the dangerous place and again set him off in the right direction The infatuated man must have made his way back to the line immediately, for the place where the accident occurred is but a short distance from the spot where Randall last saw him. The accident is supposed to have occurred about tea minutes to six, as one of the wheels of the engine which took atrain from Sheffield to Masbro' at that time was found to have marks of blood upon it, and also small portions of hair. The driver, however, felt nothing of the obstruction, though he was the first to perceive the body on his return to Sheffield shortly after. Every exertion has been made to discover the name of the individual, but hitherto without success. He had on a fustian jacket, corded breeches, a black waistcoat, and black coat, and appears to be about 50 years of age. He is said to have been drinking in the neighbourhood of Rotherham on Monday afternoon. A ver- dict of accidental death was recorded. BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PI"LLS.- Extract of a letter, written by John Molard Wheeler, Esq., Collector of Customs, Jamaica, having been handed by his brother, at Swindon, to Mr. Prout, for publication. I know you have never had occasion to take Blair's Pills, but let me empha- ticailv tell you, in mercy to any friend who may softer from gout, rheumatic gout, lumbago, sciatica, rheumatism, or any branch of that widely-allied family, to recommend their using them. In this country they are of wonderful efficacy not only am I personally aware of their powers, but I see my friends and acquaintances receiving unfailing benefit from their use. I would not be without them on any account. If taken in the early stage of disease they dissipate it altoge- ther; if in a later, they alleviate pain, and effect a much speedier cure than by any other means within my know- ledge."
