FOISONING BY COLOURED SOOKS The Iritish for a chro reparts that hi tite monthly meeting of the Bombay Medien and Physical Society, hold February Lat, 1873 The particulars of a case of puiconing by colour od sechs has read. In this nec, Dr. Cutes rusatianed that he was applied by an officer in respect of an obstinate eczematone eruption na thi lags. On impúry. Dr. Dates found that Abo-oliver la question hud Intely taken to worrź ing Bucks of a bright red colour, which he (the officer) bad received from England in 1860. Suspecting the use of the case, Dr. Caton commended simple treatment and the difuso of the souls. Aenre was soon offected, and the socke in question" were sent to Mesare. Kemp and Co. of Bonday, for analysis. The nocks were referred by Mubara.

THE REVOLT OF THE EQUITY BAR

The Time saya: We are very glad to think that the House of Lords consented by a decisive majority to, renonce the shred of authority still in appearang oppervening to it; we ac cept the net with the greatest satisfaction, because it shows that whenever the Scotch and Irish larger lirive Jeurut to see what the tribunal of appol under the Lord "Churcellor's bill is, and are prepared to accept its judgments as of equal weight with thous of the law Lords, there will be no hesitation on the part of the Lord to allow the Scatol and Irish appeals to follow the appeal from the English courts, A present the pride, we may say the vico, of pationality is too strong to allow a perfect system to be instituted, bat we do not doubt that the working of the new tribunal will speedily ore coice this ancient prejudice. The Spectator rage—A 'demonstration of acuazal oud imposing pretensions has threatened the Lord Chancellor's Judicature Bil Not teed that the measure, opposed or ya. opposed, bas now-whch chances of surviving the criticism and, above all, the delays that are soil in store for it. It has yet to reooivo its, final touches fro the Pears, and then it will be mont déwn to the House of Commons, to be wranglud'urer by the lawyers. To be sure, the latter are not at present very influential in the Lower Hause, probably less so thun at any time within the last twenty years. They are namnar sus, however, and loquaciona, and every one of them may be sidered to held a brief either For Lord Selborne's Bill of against it." It is get their attacks, but the time lost in weeting chen, that the menstre, bus west to fear; and of courage the lawyers, if they choose to let the Bill pass may agree to accept it in the form it has received from the select committee of the Jords. But this is very unlikely, and it has been rendered less likely than ever by the protest of the Equity Bar to, which we have weferred.
