, THE SHITTAH WOOD PAVEMENT . —The Horse Guards " cannot go to and fro via Regent-street because the shoeing by the smiths and farriers ( who are all against this roadway to a man ) cannot be made to apply to granite and wood . " To prevent a total and utter defeat of the ' Guards , therefore , up must come the wood , and then the parishes must acknowledge themselves beaten by that gallant body ot soldiers , and the better part of valour is discretion . Government and other expresses are diverted in their routes ; , lhe press in general i 3 aaainst the Shittim wood , and Punch in particular . The whole race of human beings ia against it , except ' some few for particular purposes , but no one human being for all intents and purposes whatever . The public clearly have their remedies , for any contracts to be legal must be for the good behoof and advantage of the whole community . Numberless cases of broken backs and legs of horses occur . Fire insurance companies are with us , for the damages , from statistics , are much more excessive than before the Shittim wood pavement , and the parishes are and will continue to be liable to damages , and -the shareholders , therefore , should be up and stirring . The smiths ; and farriers will prove the several cases . Several members for the suppression of vice are firm adherents , for contracts to be legal must be moral , whether of an intramural nature ( see Walker v . Perkins , 3 Burr . 1568 ; Appleton v . Campbell , 2 Cam and Payne , 347 ; and Boury v . Bennet , 1 Carp . 345 ) , or whether extramural ; and no authorities think of -waiting until those intramural contracts between a certain class of parties be expired , before instituting proceedings . Any agitation against intramural knackery is useless until the wood pavement extramural knackery be utterly abolished , which too frequently of itself does the business en route to the slaughter-house . The travelling- public will please to observe the advertisements spread throughout this week in the morning papers , and also a very " telling letter" just put into our hands by Mr . Galloway , of No . 7 , John-street , New-road , and published in the Morning Advertiser of the SMst of December , 1850 , ' and which ought to be reprinted into every newspaper heany in the cause ; and we court a newspaper opposition—if any . These fxtramurarShittim wood contracts were of course expressly entered into by the parties thereto for their own personal benefit and advantage . The sanitary commissioners , proh pudor , what are they about ' / for the effluvia from the animal deposits ( especially on and in the vicinity of the cabriolet stands ) are , as can be verified on oath , most deleterious and deadly . More damages , therefore , to be detained from the several " authorities , " and then the damages , forsooth . " do not prevent the agonies of that noble animtl , the horse .

CURES 1 'Olt THE UNCURED ! HOLLOW AY'S OINTMENT . —An extraordinary Cure of Scrofula or King ' s Evil . Extract of a Letter from Mr . J . H . Alliday , 209 . High-street , Cheltenham , dated the 22 nd of January , 1850 . To Professor Holloway . • Sir , —My eldest son , when about three years of age , was afflicted with a Glandular Swelling in the neck , which , after a short time , broke out into an Ulcer . An eminent medical man pronounced it as a very bad case of Scrofula , and prescribed for a considerable time without effect . The disease then for four years went on gradually increasing in virulence , when , besides the ulcer in the neck , another formed below the left knee , and a third under the eye , besides seven others on the left arm , with a tumour between the eyes , which was expected to break . During- the whole of the time my suffering boy had received the constant advice of the most celebrated medical Gentlemen at

Cheltenham , besides being- for several months at the General Hospital , where one of the Surgeons said that he would amputate the left arm , but that the blood was so impure that , if that limb were taken off , it would be then even impossible to subdue the disease . In this desperate state I determined to give your Pills and Ointment a trial , and , after two months' perseverance in their use , the tumour gradually began to disappear , and the Jischarge from all the ulcers perceptibly decreased , and at the expiration of eight niontha they were perfectly healed , and thu boy thoroughly restored to the blessings of health , to the astonishment of a large circle of acquaintances , who could testify to the truth "of this miraculous case . Three years have now rlapsed without any recurrence to the malady , and the boy is now as healthy as heart can wiah . Under these circumstances 1 consider that 1 tdiould be truly ungrateful were I not to make you acquainted with thin wonderful cure , effected by your medicines , after every other means had failed .
