As some of our readers who might feel disposed to enter the lists may not have an opportunity of seeing the North Otago Times, we extract the following from its columns : “ A lady, who evidently feels that it is not good for woman to be alone, advertises in our columns this morning for a husband. The advertisement is a genuine one, and, although we are quite inexperienced in match-making matters, we will have no hesitation in giving further particulars to any eligible person of the male sex, should any such inquire at our office and succeed iu satisfying us that there is ‘ no nonsense’ about him, and that he is as much bent upon business as the fair advertiser herself. To paraphrase the poetic language of our excellent friends the auctioneers, this is a splendid opportunity for those desirous of investing in matrimonial bliss, in dual blessedness, aud the bachelor who allows it to pass unutilised will, in our opinion, be false to himself, his friends, and his country.” With regard to tile brutal assault on a scholar at the Ebeuezer Baptist Sunday School, the Sydney Evening News says :—“ The accused is a man named James, otherwise called John Allen, and the victim a boy of twelve years old, named William Orookford. On the afternoon of the above date the boy Crockford behaved rather rudely in school by walking into the pulpit, aud turning over the leaves of a book there. This behavior excited Allen’s temper, and after chasing the boy over the school, he threw him on the floor and kicked him several times violently in the lower part of the abdomen, and subsequently on the back. He finished up by throwing him out of the school. How the injured lad reached his home in Campbell-stroet, or to what extent the other teachers interfered in his behalf, has not yet transpired. The injuries, though severe and painful, were concealed by the boy from his parents ; but, after the lapse of several days, the effects became so serious than he was forced to tell his parents of the occurrence. Upon examination, his body presented a num- ■ her of large bruises and discolorations. The boy was medically attended and examined by Drs. McKellar, Marshall, Egan, and Renwick, upon whose advice the lad’s depositions have been taken. Allen was brought up, on the 4th instant, aud remanded for a week, as the condition of the boy is so critical.” t Holloway's Ointment and Pills.— Ever Useful.—The afflicted by illness should look their diseases fully in the face, and at once seek a remedy for them.
