A New England paper says:—" George Francis Train is understood to have been so powerfully affected by the wish of Canon Kingsley that some American might be buried in Westminster Abbey, that he has determined to abandon his prospects of the Presidency, never so flattering as now, and go over to London to furiosi the requisite corpse. Only a great soul cibuld be capable of such an act." In consequence of the increasing number of desertions from the English army and marines, the War office has offered a reward of ten shillings to soldiers for the apprehension and conviction of every deserter from her Majesty's service. Among the works disposed of at the recent sale of Sir William Tite's library was a copy of the first edition of Miles Coverdale's English translation of the Bible, printed in 1535. This work is so rare that no perfect copy of it is known. Sir William Tite's copy fetched £150. The Glasgow Herald publishes a list of legacies left by the late Mr William Ewing to educational, religious, and charitable institutions, amounting in the aggregate to £23,350. Holloway's Pills.—The Liver, the Stomach, and their Ailments.—Alternations of temperature, muggy weather, a troubled mind, sedentary habits, excesses of the table, and a gay, reckless mode of life exert the most deleterious influence over the liver and stomach. When once these organs are fairly out of order, great inroads are quickly made on the general state of the health ; the constitution, which has been deprived of two of its noblest organs, soon gives way, and diseases quiokly follow, from which, if neglected, the worst consequences wiil inevitably result. If a course of Holloway's celebrated Pills be persevered in, all will be well again, as they are the finest and noblest correctives of the blood ever known, and a certain cure for all disorders ofthe liver and stomach. — Advt. Maravilla Cocoa.—The Globe says, "Tay'or Brothers' Maravilla Cocoa has achieved a thorough success, and supersedes every other Cocoa in the market. Entire solubility, a delicate aroma, and a rare concentration of the purest elements of nutrition, distinguish the Maravilla Cocoa above all others. For Invalids and Dyspeptics we could not recommend a more agreeable or valuable beverage." For further favorable opinions vide Standard, Morning Post, British Medical Journal, &c, &c, Maravilla Cocoa-— Taylor Beothebs (the largest Manufacturers of Cocoa in Europe), having the exclusive supply of this unrivalled Cocoa, invite comparison with any other Cocoa for Purity—fine Aroma —Sanative, Nutritive and Sustaining Power— Easiness of Digestion—and especially, high delicious flavour. One trial will establish it as a favorite beverage for breakfast, luncheon, and a Soothing Refreshment after a late evening. N.B. Caution,— " Maeavilm" is a registered Trade Mark, '
