The police of Vienna have purchased a considerable number ol these machines, with the view of bringing up drowned persons from the bottom ot the Danube ket ; at prrfent onn pied Ly Doctor Wil son. per is occupied with short pieces ofdelem said, “ However that might be, Prose and Poetry.

An Hibernian telling his friend that passing along the street he saw a person on the other side with whom he thought he was acquainted, said, I crossed to see him, I thought knew him, and he thought he knew, me ; but by—itw«5 neither one not t'other of us. A Gascon was vaunting one day that in his travels he had been caress ed every where he went, and had seen all the great men throughout Eu rope. Have you seen the Dardancl- ■s ? says one ol the company ; Par- bleu, says he, I must surely have seen them, when I dined with their, several times. An ignorant fellow seeing several persons reading with spectacles, went to buy a pair to enable him to read. He tried several, and told the maker, they would not answer—as he could not read with them. Can you read at all ? asked the other. No : sa\ s he—.if I could, do you think I would he such a fool as to buy spectacles t A Gascon received a very severe flogging with a cudgel, without dar ing to resist* A few days afterwards he met with a poet who had lam pooned him severely. Pardieu,says he, if you ever dare make free with me again, I shall give you a severe cudg elling. You can readily afford to give it now, replies the other, as you received so large a stock the other day. A gentleman called to see his friend, and was informed by the ser vant that his master was busy : hut I must speak with him, said the vi sitant. Indeed, Sir, you cannot at this moment, replied the footman, for my master is beating his lady, and will see no company. 24 tf JnllisL THE SURGEON OUTWITTED.

The kitchen maid informs the baker’s journey man, that she shall lie at home from six till nine in the evening, but be fore that time it will be impossible for her to see company. The coach man may give a most gracious invi tation to the stable-keeper, telling him that he shall expect to see him at a pity soopayhe intends to give his friends ; but that he will give him a few day’s notice, so that business may not prevent him from having the pleasure of his company. We notice with delight the en :reasing importance and resources of >ur country. Every day seems to hting forth some new discovery cal culated to promote the happiness of our people—among them the coal mine on the Susquehanna, apparently inexhaustible, is of the highest inte rest ; situate close on the margin of that noble liver, an easy mode of transporting it to all parts of the U- nion presents itself. Gentlemen con versant in the properties of thi mineral, pronounce the Susquehanna Coal far superior to any hitherto known. It has little or no smoke or smell, creates less dust than a ny other fuel, makes the hot test fire of any known substance while it seems almost incombustibh from its duration. A native of Eng land at whose house we saw a fire of this coal, states, that, one peck of the Susquehanna coal will cast out more heat, and endure longer, than three pecks of the best English coal he e ver saw used. The only possible objection to the Susquehanna coal is that it requires rather more trouble to kindle a fire with it than with the common coal—this disadvantage is, amply compensated, however, by th fact that one good fire will burn 24 hours, and need never be suffered to go out in a room where a fire is eve ry day wanted.—Balt.
