ANAWAY 7 from the subscriber, about the 7th July last, a hired negro fellow by the name of DAVE, who belongs to Thomas Price. As this is not the first time said fellow has runa way after being hired out, it is believed he has been furnished with a ticket, authorising him to go off to a distance and hire out his own time. For the apprehensiou of the negro, aud proof of this fact, sufficient to conviction, I will give one hundred dollars, or twenty dollars for the boy a- lone. Said Dave is a tall black fellow-, about 30 years of age. It is probable he is up at the gold mines. DAVID RALSTON. Aug. 24 372 Caring a Hypochondriac.—A gentleman who bad for a long time fancied himself dying of a liv er complaint, was advised by Dl\ Crawford, of Baltimore, to make an excursion into tho State of Ohio. After travelling three mouths, he re turned home, apparently in good health; but, up on receiving information of the death of o. tw in brother, who had actually died of schirrbous liv er, he immediately staggered, and falling down, cried cut lie w-as dead, and had, as be always ex pected," died of a liver complaint. Dr. Crawford being sent for, immediately attended; and, on be ing informed of the notion which had seized the hypochondriac, immediately exclaimed, “O yei, the gentleman is certainly dead, and it is more than probable his liver was the death of him.— However; to ascertain the fact, I will hasten u» cut him open before putrefaction takes place.” He called for a carving knife, and w betting it as a butcher would to open a dead calf, he step ped up to him, and began to open his waistcoat. The hypochondriac became sc.horribly frighten ed, that ho leaped up with the agility of a rabbit, aud'crying out ‘‘Murder! Murder! Murder!” ran off with a speed that would have defied a score of doctors to catch him. After running a consider- able distance, until he was almost exhausted, he halted; and not finding the doctor at his heels, soon became composed. From that period this gentleman was never known to complain of his liver; nor had he, for more than twenty years af terwards, ar.ysyrnptoms of this disease. •Some queer fellow in Philadelphia inquires of Mr. Chandler of the Gazette, the tneaning of dry wine. Wine being liquid; it "strikes the inquiring gentleman as a little out of order to cali it dry.— The Editor’^ answer is very satisfactory. H« says dry wine, means wine imported in empty bottles.

A Snake's nest.—Whilst fallowing a field, one of my ploughers turned up a nest of eggs the co lor of turtle’s eggs aud about the size (uot larger.); On breaking them I found in every egg a live snake between six and seven inches long, and nearly as large as a man’s little fiuger. When the snake r. as out of the egg, from its size you would have thought it impossible: it could have been enclosed iu so small a compass. There were thirty-two eggs. Several gentlemen aud myself examined them together, and were of o- pinion they were the kind of snake called Moca- sin. On examining Nicholson’s American edi tion of the British Encyclopedia, I find it stated, “some serpents are viviparous, as the rattlesnake, the viper, &c., whilst the innoxious species ar* oviparous.” It is well known that we have u« serpent, amongst us (just above tide-water in Vir ginia) that is more noxious than the Mocasin. If you think this communication is worth its room in your paper you are at liberty to insert it. Richmond Enquirer. Cholera Anecdote.—-The following anecdote i« in circulation and saiu to be authentic:—An indi vidual of fortune being awoke by a severe cholic, fancied himself attacked by the cholera and sent off immediately for physicians, desiring his ser vant iri tho mean time to rub him with a flesh brush. When the medical gentlemen arrived, they found their patient of the most terrific ap pearance, having turned quite black from head t@ foot; but on a closer examination they found that the color was not that of the skin, aa it cam* off on being touched, and at length it was dis covered that the poor servant in his flight had laid hold of the blacking brush, and thus varnish ed the body of his suffering master, who. after the administration of some usual remedies, and the application of a warm bath, soon recovered his health and fair complexion.—French Paper. Cholera among flies.—It is a singular fact that wherever the cholera prevails, the flies die. Ne ver before were there seen so few flies in Liver pool as at present. Butchers, grocers, and pro vision shops are quite free.—Liverpool Journal. We hare observed that flies are less abundant this summer in New York than usual, though by no.means so scarce as they appear to bo in Liv- . erpool. Some other species of insects flourish re markably well in a Cholera atmosphere; particu larly a worm three quarters of an inch to an inch in length encased iu a sheath except its head. This, however, is an essential part of the insect, as it answers the purpose of legs, hands, anti mouth. With it the insect walks, lets itself down by means of a thread manufactured for the occa- . sion, from whatever object it wishes to descend, and devours an immense quantity of foliage. There are 12 or 20 larch trees in Prince end / Greene sts. so completely possessed by these in sects, that mo3t of the leaves have entirely disap peared and what few remain, look a» if they had passed through the fire.—Joto of Com.
