The brethren within the Liverpool Masonic circle , and many besides who are beyond it , will learn with regrtt that Bro . Joseph Wood , who for so many years has occupied a working position in Masonry , has recently sustained a severe loss in the death of his wife , who for the long period of forty-five years had been his sharer of every-day joys and sorrows . The sad event took

place on tlie 9 H 1 111 st . at Monument-place , after a long and painful illness , wdich was borne by the sufferer wilh the greatest resignation and patience . Mrs . Wood , who had reached her seventy-second year , was universally respected and esteemed ; and now that Bro . Wood , by the dispensation of T . G . A . O . T . U ., has be-en bereft of her who was for nearly half a century his kindly helpmeet , he may fall

back for some consolation on the heartfelt and universal sympathy of all who know him , both in and out of Masonry . The interment of Mrs . Wood took place on Monday afternoon at Smithdovm-lane Cemetery , Liverpool , where there were gathered a number of Bro . Wood ' s personal frie nds . The funeral service was read by the Rev . Dr . Harrison , of St . Silas ' s Chuich , Liverpool .

HOLLUWAY ' S OINTMENT AND PILLS . —Autumn is proverbially the season if sickness ; then thc blouil requires ymritication , the digestion dernauili thorough anil attentive regulation , and all the secretions call fur correction , llollovvay's remedies supply all the necessaries for securing health ; the one overcomes cutaneous discuses , sole ? , ulcerations , abscesses , carbunclees , anil all visible imperfections , the other acts most potently in cleansing the

circulation , strengthening the stomach , governing the liver , regulating the bowels , and reeincim * the entire system to order . Thus these twin mcclicaineiils fnrnivh the most eilicient medicine chest available lor family use . It is easier , through Holloway ' s discover ) -, to point out tire remedy than to describe the disease ; into the former no fallacy can inirue ' e ; into the lalter prejudice may unwillingly creep . —[ Ami . ]

It will interest many of our readers to know that a complimentary benefit is in preparation at the Gaiety Theatre , to Mr . William Bedford . Few actors on the stage have more claims on thc sympathy of the public than Mr . Bclford . The World says the household at Camden Place is broken up , and Dr . Conneau and M . Pietri have viitually taken their leave of the Empress , with whose family they have been so long associated .
