OLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS . —Sore Throat ,. Quinsy ., Ulcerated Throat , and Diptherite . —The sore throat , with more or less hoarseness , prevailing at this season of the year , has for twenty years been treated with the above remedies with a degree of success far surpassing that of any other mode of treatment . The cures have been so remarkable , speedy , and numerous , that . it was predicted the new disease , diptherito , consisting of small ash-coloured ulcers in tho interior of tho throat , attended by fever often fatal , might be arrested by the same means , and such has been the case . This disease , in its first stage , seems even more amenable to Holloway ' s Ointment and Pills than the simpler forms of imflammatory sore throat .

¦ Novei . Method of Connecting and Filing Papkks &c Mr . A . F . Walden , of 2 , Stratford-place , Cam . 4 en-square , a gentleman well known among the principal Assurance Societies for his inquiries into doubtful , and his successful detection of fraudulent , claims , has just brought out a small and very neat machine , ' % means of-which and metal eyelets ( similar to those used for making th . e brass holes in stays and boots ) every description of papers and documents , &c , can be neatly and firmly connected i » a quick and easy manner . This machine will prove a great acquisition to the office and the counting-house , and from its manifold uses , as well as its cheapness , will ere long get into general requisition . We particularly recommend it to managers of Assurance Societies and lawyers , arid it will be
-especially serviceable to public offices . The Hop Duty . —The Excise Hop Duty Repeal Association have called a meeting of the planters and others , to be held at Tunbridge Wells , on November 5 . The Sussex Advertiser says that the necessity of an early appeal to the Chancellor of the Exchequer is painfully apparent . The low price realised for any but hops of the choicest growths , and from the most favoured districts , and the accumulated pressure of the heavy duties of the last few years , are rapidly bringing on a crisis in the affairs of a large section of the planters . The duties of a year and a half have to be paid in the next few months , and the utter inability of a numerous tody of growers to raise the sum due to the excise is a matter of universal assertion .
The "Western Bank . —The Scottish Press says : — We understand that an influential section of the shareholders have had repeated consultations during the past ¦ week with eminent counsel . The result is , that they have resolved to take immediate steps to apply to the Court of Session , for a suspension of the recent call of 100 £ per share made by the liquidators . Meanwhile , the liquidators have resolved to avail themselves of the recent amendment of the Joint-Stock Companies Act ,
a nd have instructed their lawyers to institute an action against the directors of the Western Bank for the last ten years - — a period which embraces the names of Messrs . Baird , and other gentlemen of great wealth and influence . " . The Glasgow Morning Journal says : — " We understand that a summons of reduction , repetition , and damages has been raised arid executed by one of the shareholders , a lady resident in the east cbuntry , against the directors of the Western Bank . This will practically test the question of their liability . "
Gold im Canada . —Reports of the discovery of gold are again prevalent . The ore , , it is said , has been found in small quantities upon the Eagle River , about 100 miles ' from Ottawa city , up the Gatineau River . The report adds that some Indians made the discovery . How much reliance is to be placed on these rumours it is impossible to say at present . It is also said that lead in a pure state , with zinc , have been found in the same districts . —Canadian News . Spanish Finances . —The Madrid Gazette of the 23 rd contains an order of the Minister of Finance to the effect that whenever a supplementary or extraordinary credit
is granted , the decree making the grant shall set forth by what means the credit is to be paid ; also , if the credit be required at a time at which the Cortes are not Bitting , the Council of State shall report on the urgency and necessity of it . Another order of the same Minister directs that the . payment of the coupons of the public debt , both Consols and Deferred , also the dividends on road and railway shares , and on all kinds of public scrip , shall be made in the provincial chief towns at the provincial treasuries . This measure , by encouraging the investment of provincial capital in the public funds , Will , it is said , probably increase the upward tendency which has been lately manifested in the money-market .
The Suez Canal . —At Marseilles , on Wednesday night , at the banquet given to M . de Lesseps , that gentleman stated : — - " That the works of the Suez Canal will commence in three months , and that the canal shall be opened in three years /' Telegraph Communication along the Liverpool Docks . —At the weekly meeting of the Mersey Dock Board , a letter was reported to have been received from a " Mr . Belcher , lion , secretary of the Liverpool Docks Telegraph Company , " in which the writer asked if the board would bo inclined to afford any assistance to the company in constructing a line of telegraphs along the docks . Tho chairman said that thoro would bo no need of any public company , as tho board themselves would of courso liavo telegraphic communication along tho docks and quay as soon as their line to Holy * bead was completed .
6 aoTTisK Australian Investment Company . — -A special mceeting of the Company was hold yesterday . Mr . Diokson in the chair ; the object being to confirm the conversion of the shares into stock , agreed to at a previous mooting , whioh having been passed , the meet * ing adjourned . The prospectus lias also boon issued of the Scottish Australian Mining Company , with a capital of 8 O , o 6 oj . in XU shares . Tho object Is to work certain mineral proportios in Now South Wales aaquirod by tho Scottish Investment Company , and of which very favourable reports have been received .
