At a meeting of the Auckland French Literary Society, Mr C. de L'Eau read an originial story written by himself, and entitled "I Have No Time." It was based upon the loss of a wedding ring in the river Meuse, and its discovery many years afterwards in a Dutch potato field, whither it had been carried by an inundation. An English physician who was annoyed with the most distressing symptoms of hay feyer, plugged his nostrils with cotton. the effect was magical, at once the sneezing ceased. . A Scolding Woman. —The barbarities of the ducking-Btool for the cure ot scolding ■women, though abolished by law, are now oftentimes practised by a kind of social barbarity none the less reprehensible. Women ecold only when they are ill. Instead of blaming them we should prescribe Hop Bitters. The entire system will undergo a genial, pleasant change. The nerveß will be quieted and acerbity of word and thought will give place to'amiability and affection. Healthy women do not scold or fret. Bead. Oatabbh o_r the Bxaddeb.—Stinging irritation, inflammation, all Kidney and aimilar Complaints, cured by " Buchu-paiba." —Moses, Moss and Co. Sydney, General Apents.
