Holloway’s Ointment and Pills.—CniLdkln’s complaints. —While the weekly return of mortality shows a decrease of deaths from small-pox, it displays an alarming increase in fatal cases of measles and scarlatina. Such unfortunate issues would not result were mothers and nurses to rub Holloway’s Ointment upon the glands of the neck and upper part of the chest when symptoms of scarlet fever and measles first appear, or even after the eruption lias come out. The Ointment penetrating through the skin into the glands, always stimulates them to throw out a full eruption, which is the safety valve of both diseases. Holloway’s Pills also should be given to lessen the fever, to reduce the irritation of the throat, and to quiet the cough, which arc most distressing to all suffering from t hose complaints. — fAdvt.J By the arrival of the Brig Louis and Miriam from Sydney and the Brig liemarJc from Newcastle, wc have received Sydney papers to the sth inst.
