that it should be held on the 24th. On a
division the amendment was carried,whereupon Mr O'Conor moved that a committee
should be appointed to wait on those having the management of the horse-racing,
requesting them to adjourn their meeting
to the 25th, in consideration of the priority
to which the boatmen were entitled. He
desired to see both sports carried out; but
thought it undesirable that they should
clash in any way. The motion was seconded
by Mr Suisted, and, for the purpose stated,
as well as for the purpose of collecting
subscriptions, the following committee was
appointed: Messrs Walter Abernethy,
John Reid, Edmond Roche, Monahan,
Arnold, Tonks and Hughes Mr Hughes
to be treasurer.
In the Warden's Court, yesterday, the
Warden disposed of eight applications for
head-races and dams, one application for a
tunnel, and four applications for washing
stands and special sites. The tunnelling
application by Mullins was for protection
for a claim to which his party had been
driving for eight months, near Deadman's
creek. After driving 1050 feet through
very hard and rocky ground, tliey found
that they were too high for the lead. They
intended to drive another tunnelfor a distance of 1400 or 1500 feet. Protection for

These pills require no interruption
of business or pleasure, they act
mildly on the bowels, strengthen the
stomach, and promote a healthy action
of the liver, whereby they purify the
blood, cleanse the skin, brace the
nerves, and invigorate the whole system. They effect a truly wonderful
change in the debilitated constitution,
they create a healthy appetite,
correct indigestion, remove bile, giddiness, headaches, and palpitation of the

DEBILITY.
In eases of debility, languor, aad
nervousness generated by excess of
any kiud, whether mental or physical,
the effect of these pills is in the highest
degree bracing, renovating, and restorative. They drive from the system
the morbid cause of disease; re-establish the digestion, regulate all the
secretions, brace the nervous system,
raise the patient's spirits, and bring
back the frame to its pristine health
and vigour. They increase the appetite, while they secure perfect digestion to all ordinary food, and release
the invalid from restraint in diet.
A WOED
TO FEMALES.
There are two periods, especially in
woman's life, which require for safe
passage, judgment and attention. Irregularity is apt at those critical times
to take place, and to lay the foundation of future disease. These pills,
safe in action, and effective in result,
should be taken at certain periods, and
the issue will be marvellous both to the
young and middle aged. They pre-
be without them.
