To that capacity at Clerkezi well, Brixton, Newgate, and elsewhere he has soon ja years' continuous, sarvico.
This week Mr. Cook retires into private life at Norbury, with the unusual distinction of having had a wider acquaintance with crimi- nats of all kinds that any other man, And, mainly, this acquaintanceship has been of a resi friendly nature.

MEMORIES OF CHARLES PEACE,
At Olerkenwell be first met Charles Peace, the prince of cracksmen. "A quite little chap, with a bulgy, brainy head and very cunsing eyes," is Mr. Cook's recollection of him.
We were introduced politely - Mr. Charles Peace-Mr. Cook. We bowed."
"Woll," said I, "you are a queer-looking old
#tick,"
*Well," said ha," permit me to say that you are a queer-looking young twig also, What are you staring at?".
"To remember your face in case you wriggle out of this business" said 1, taking careful stock
of the little man. "I fancy I shall be able to

Yet cod liver, ail is one of the most valuable drugs in the world, and it is the greatest pity that we have not thus far been able to free it from those peculiarities which so seriously interfere with its usefulness."
