MARAVILLA COCOA. -No breakfast table is complete without this delicious beverage. — Tse Globe sajs, "Various importers and manufacturers have attempted to attain a reputation for their prepared Cocoas, but we doubt whether any thorough success had been achieved until Messrs Taylor Brothers discovered the extraordinary qualities of ' Maravilla' Cocoa. Adapting their perfect system of preparation to this finest of all species of the Theobroma, they have produced an article which supersedes every other Cocoa in the market. Entire solubility, a delicate aroma, and a rare concentration of the purest elements of nutrition, distinguished the Maravilla Cocoa above all others. For homoeopaths and invalids we could not recommend a more agreeable or valuable beverage." Sold in packets only by all Grocers, of whom also may be had Taylor Brothers' Original Homoeopathic Cocoa and Soluble Chocolate. Steam Mills — Brick Lane, London. Export Chicory Mills, Bruges, Belgium.

A New England minister lately astonished his congregation by telling them that " some theologians write books that would knock Moses into pie." " Mr Jones, what makes the canary sleep on one leg ?" — " I don't think anybody makes him, my dear ; I think he does it of his own accord." This motto ought to be placed on the bills of fare of some restaurants — " No customer can go farther and fare worse." Don't bother editors when they are busy. Quilp stepped in to the Imperial sanctum this morning to ask what he'd better write about. " Write about?" growled the disgusted chief; " I think you had better right-about-face !" — and he did.
