A SCOTCH SHIP CANAL.

One of the Scotch Members of Parlia ́inent, Mr James Caldwell, has been pres- sing on the House of Commons the ad

vantages of Boutland from a Naval point of view, and the desirability of a ship canal between the Clyde and the Forth. Scot- land has excellent harbour accommodation both on the East and on the West counts, and the Clyde, with its shipbuilding, its eupply of workmen, and its proximity to the coal and iron fields, is pro-entinont'y suitable for a Government Dockyard. It was true, he admitted, that the new Naval 380 at. St. Margaret's Hope on the Forth. would to a large extent, if not entirely, mitigate the grievance so far as the East coast of Scotland was concerned. It would provide a Government Dockyard' in proximity to the eastern coal and iron industrics, and an excellent harbour for a fleet of any size watching and protecting the harbours and ports and shipping on the East coast, but under existing circumsturcos it would not help the harbour and shipping interests on the West of Scotland in the event of war. The whole complexion of the matter would ho changed by the formin. tion of a canal between the Forth and the Clydo, which would enable ships of war to pass freely from one coast to the other. Such a canal would be only thirty miles in length, and capable of being traversed in from five to six hours. By its means the Naval Base at St. Mar- garet's Hapo on the East coast would be in direct water communication with a fleet

In Amoy in the ficos the thermometor has ranged from 85 to well above 9), while even on Kulangau it has crept up to 90 in many houses. Tho prevailing winds have been West and South West, and of no great strength, so life is made a heavy burden to many people, who are not yet acclimatized to such great hust.

For Amoy, Mr Pratt made 68, and Mr Lacklan 28: for the Ocean, Mr Bissot made 31 not out, Messrs Holt and Jellicoe 14 each, and Mr Dalrymple 11. The day was frightfully hot, almost too hot for cricket, but the

THERAPION

MARK

· This successful and highly popular remody, as employed in the Continental ttospitals by Ricord, Rostan, Jobert, Velpeau, and others, combines all the desiderata to be sought in a medicine of the kind and surpasses everything hitherto employed. THERAPION No. 1

in a remarkably short tigne, often a few days only, removes all discharges from the urinary organs, superseding injections, the use of which does irro parable harm by laying the foundation of strictura and other serious diseases.

THERAPION NË 2

for impurity of the blood, scurvy, pimples, spots, blotches, pains and swelling of the joints, secon dary symptoms, gout, rheumatism, and all diseases for which it has been too much a fashion to em- ploy mercury, sarsaparilla, &c., to the destruction of sufferers' teeth and ruin of health. This pre- paration purifies the whole system through the роновона blood, and thoroughly eliminates every matter from the body.

THERAPION No. 3

for nervous exhaustion, impaired vitality, aleepless- ness, and all the distressing consequences of early error, excess, residence in hot, unhealthy climates, &c. It possesses surprising power in restoring strength and vigour to the debilitated.

Is sold by all

THERAPION the principal
