A curious mode of fish hatching comes to us from China. Having collected the necessary spawn from the water’s edge, the fisherman places a certain quantity in an empty hen’s egg, which is sealed up with wax, and put under a sitting hen. After some days they break the egg, and empty the fry into water well warmed with the sun, and there nurse them until sufficiently strong to be turned in the lake or river. The other day a country magistrate appeared in a London Police Court with a pitiful tale of how he had been treated at the Bishopsgate Railway Station. Having fallen asleep in the waiting room, ho was robbed of his money', and Ins boots were stuffed full of orange peel. Besides this he was hustled and laughed at, and the police refused to interfere. The stipendiary advised the applicant to report the policemen for refusing to take the charge. Holloway’s Ointment.— Gout and Rheumatism.—The essence of these diseases liosfin the blood, which has, floating through each vessel, the pain-giving poison, which irritates and inflames every tissue it comes in contact with, and produces that hot, swollen, elastic enlargement about the joints, so characteristic of gouty diseases. The philosophy of cure consists in overcoming this depravity in the blood, which is rapidly purified by the use of the Pills. The Ointment, when rubbed upon the skin, penetrates the system through the pores, acts in unison with the pills, and soon effects a cure.
