On this subject the great Captain Cook wrote I did not observe (smongst the natives) ony appearance of disease or bod.ly complaint or eruption of the skin. Very old men without hair and teeth showed no signs of decrepitude, and were full of vivacity There must be some reason for this, and Chas. Forde, armed with the moderate. implements of modern scientific research, sought for that reason amongst the rich profusion of Australian herbs which had been the sole medicines of the natives. Aftab years of research he found himself the happy discover of a vegetable sub stanco which acted on the liver and digestive ercans differently and in superior manner to any med cine know. The best labor.. tories, dictated as being hast for the pur pose, was requisitioned in the compounding of this substance into convenient medicinal form; and the result of it all was the production a few years back of Bila Beans -the most perfect medicine of modern times.

NOTICE.
THE TRUSTEES of BELILIOS FUND 13,555, awarded the following Prizes in respect of the Examinations held under the Trust in April last :-
The result of the election was that M. Louis Hemique, was re-elected for the third t 'me with 18,652 votes, »gainst 13,663 For M. Lemaire and 5 for M. Cempo.
The Madras Mail, commenting on the Pondicherry election riots, says its Indi- cherry correspondent has given some interesting details lately regarding the cleotion of a Deputy Tor French India and it was clear from what he said that the voting would be pretty close. So it was apparently, for M: Lemaire, ex-Governor, who came out to ludia especially to contest the seat, ublained
as many as votes, against 18,652 voten obtained by M. L. Henrique, who is now elected for the third time. Considering the former unchallonged preponderance of M. Hen. rique's party, M. Lemsire's performance is sufficiently remarkable and indicates that there is a numerous and powerful minority dissatisfied with the previously existing state of affair. M. Henriquo is a popular candidato relying on the native vote, the. local loader of the party being M. Shun. mugani Moudelliar. The influence of the French Deputy is such that he can make or unmake Colonial Governors by bringing pressure to bear on the Ministry in Paris, so that the position is one of considerable importance and the struggle of the party to have Deputy of its own way of thinking is necessarily soute.
