Mr. Dent, our representative from the fourth Con gressional district, is very poor at pres ent. “ lie has not yet been able to take his seat in the House this Session, and it is quite doubtful whether bis health will permit him to visit Washington at all during the present Session of Congress.’’ The election at Parkersburg, Va.. for Councilmen, resulted in the entire suc cess of the Know Nothing ticket by a majority of 113 to 17. At Fairfax Court House, \ a., at the election of Commissioner of Revenue for that county, the Know Nothing candidate beat bis opponent more than four votes to one.

The only items of general interest are that Vienna negotiations are postponed for two weeks, thus affording another ohance for peace.

Stock, 540,000 bales, including 280,000 American. THE WAR. The London Time? advocates the immediate discharge of Lord Raglan incompetent, bitterly assails the Ministry, and says that Dalhousie, the present Governor of India, is the only proper person for the War Office. At the Vienna Conference, the repre sentatives of England, France and Austria, agreed upon and drew up an interpretation of the four points. The Austrian Minister carried the documents to GortchakofF. who was in company with the Prussian Embassador. V hen asked if he was prepared to accept the interpretation without reserve or modification, he replied, his instruc tions were only to treat on the basis of the four points, and ask two weeks delay to confer with the Czar, which was granted. The terras reported are neither hard nor humiliating to Russia. The Russian interpretation of the four points are said to differ but little from tlint of the Allies. The siege works of the Allies at Sevastopol are advancing, and reinforce ments arriving. Canrobert writes he is able to take the offensive and make good -his losses. The army is full of confidence. Scarce ly a night passes without an attack being made on the French lines. The French works extend to bottom Quaran tine bay, but the Russians contested every inch of the ground.

ISPMost persons boil ham. It is much better baked, if baked right. Soak it for an hour in clean water and wipe it dry, next spread it all over with thin hatter, and then put it into a deep dish with sticks under it, to keep it out of the gravy. When it is folly done, take off the skin and bolter crusted upon the flesh side, and set it away to cool. You will find it very delicious, but too rich for dyspepties. Naturalization Statistics. During the year 1854, the number of foreigners naturalized in New York city was 3163. Strange to say, there is in Ptnladelahiu no way of finding out how many persons are naturalized, A)ear ago we directed one of our reporters to make inquiries at the office of the proper Court, but lie was informed that no record was kept of the number.—Ex.

Medical Testimony cannot be controverted— One of the most startling cases is narrated of Dr. M‘ Lane's Vermifuge, by Dr. J< hn But ler, of Lowell, Trumbull county, Ohio. The case was that of a young lady who had been very sick for eight years, and had consulted . ,. number of physicians, who had treated it as | one of prolapsus uteri. Dr. Butler was then ” called in, and for a time believed with his pre decessors that it was a case of prolapsus. He was, however, soon forced to the conclusion that his patient was suffering from worms, and after much persuasion, prevailed upon her to take two doses of Dr. McLaue’s- Ver mifuge. This medicine had the effect of re moving from her a countless number of the largest size. After she passed them, her health immediately returned. She is since married, and continues to enjoy excellent health. Sold in Athens by Drs. Smith <t Hill.
