I Mysteries of the Army.
I \(>find this ill the St. lends Republican,
| . correspondent yesterday alluded to the circum
| ee (li e female having been diacyverd in the ehnrac-
I , soldier at Fort Mann, tile headquarters of the
I ["pstia battalion under Col. Gilpin. Another letter in-
I us that this woman was regularly mustered into
ndceas a member ol Capt. Hollzscheizter’s com pa
[ . Irani St I,,'UIS, at Fort Leavenworth, Theeompa
| jo whicit she was attached, left Fort Leavenworth
I ~h the SthofOctober, and she remained with it until
I ~ dtnoutmrnt took place, lute in Nov. It is said that
„ he was enrolled as a private under the patronage of
o-io of the Lieutenants of thecomjiany and that she was
r wards detailed as a cook to the Lieutenant's mess,
a,u remained in that situation until the 24th of Novem
[a,r .when she was discharged from the army, nnd took
up her march home ina return train,still in her male at
tre li was afterwards discovered that her discharge
whs irregular, and that some difficulty might grow
Oil of it. Lieut O’Hara was thereupon ordered to go
in pursuit of the girl and bring her hack, The train was
four or five miles ahead,hut were overtaken next day.
Some resistance was oik-red by the teamsters to a sup
puration from the soldier— as she still pretended to be—
and it was only on the confession of hi-r sex nnd the de
termination of tile lieutenant to take her back us a reg
ular enlisted soldier, that they yielded. On her return,
she stated the facts connected with her induction into
the army as a soldier and the part which the alledged
Lieut. Schnabel had acted in it. Thereupon the broth
era Sehnaliel were put under arrest, and were waiting
the return of Col. Gilpin, when they will have to an
swer the charge of making a false muster roll, without a
surgeon's examination. Meanwhile, the, girl was go
ing at large about the fort as lively as possible. She
continued to dress in her uniform, of which she had
drawn every necessary; and it is added that she stood the
fatigues of the campaign as well or better than most of
the able bodied men of the battallion— N. O. Delta.
•Santa Anna’s Leg.
It is universally known, says the New Orleans Della,
that Santa Anna lost his leg at Vera Crux, at the time |
the French took that town ; hut about the manner in ! ,
which he lost it, we have heard several different stories, j
A gentleman who was an eye-witness to the whole af- \
fair gives the following account:
After the French had taken the city and spiked all
the gnus, they commenced the re-emharkation of the
troops Santa Anna had his spies out, who gave hun
notice of the progress they were making ; st last he was
informed that Admiral Baudin and about 25 men only
were left on the wharf. He at once advanced with a
bout 400 men, and running up to the gate, he placed
himself behind a pillar,and holding up his sword, cried
out,” Go ahead,tny brave fellows ; long live the Re
public I” The admiral had placed himself in front of a
captured piece ol artillery, which was standing on the
wharf, loaded with canister. As the Mexicans were
rushing in, he step|ied aside and ordered the piece to be
discharged. A number were killed—one ball struck !
Santa Anna's leg,and another his hand, the only parts i
of hia body that were at all exposed. The Mexicans re- 1
treated in confusion ; the leg was amputated, was buri- j
ed with many honors and a great deal of pomp, its loser
made a General ol Division, and afterwards President, 1
and at a subsequent revolution against his Government, 1
when he was obliged to leave the country, the leg was ‘
dug up and burnt, under the loud cheers of an exasper- j
ated mob. .
Pins.
The following statistics of Pin making in the U.
States are given in the New York Journal of Corn
mere :
A dozen years since, all the pins used in this country i
were imported. Now, none are imported, except a few 1 1
German pins for the supply of the German population !
ot Pennsylvania. 1 his wonderful change has been pro- ‘
duced by a concurrence of circumstances, —the most j
prominent of which was the invention, by Mr. S. Slo
cum, now of Providence, of a pm-making machine tar
superior to any tliem in use in England. This led to the
establishment of a pin-manufactory at Poughkeepsie by 1
Messrs. Slocum, Jtltoon &, Cos., which, contrary to gen- ‘
era! expectation, was entirely successful, and soon dis.
tanced foreign competition. Thus things went on un
td the passage of the Tariff of 1842, which,by increas
ing the duty on foreign pins, encouraged other parties in
this country to engage in the business. Foreseeing
tins, the above mentioned Company,—winch was suc
ceeded by the Am. Pm Company,—at once reduced j
their prices 20 per cent., and have since reduced them
10 per cent. more. Os all the Pm Companies wluch j
have been established or attempted in the U. States, I
only three are known to exist at present, viz : Am. Pm ‘
Company, (which has works both at Poughkeepsie nnd
at Wnterbury, Conn.) the Howe Company at Derby
Conn., and Messrs. Pelton, Fairchild &. Cos., of Pough
keepsie.
The quantity of pins turned out by these establish
ments, especially the two first, is enormous. The sta
tistics of one of them, we have ascertained, are about
as follows. Per week, 70 cases, averaging 170 packs,
each, each pack containing 12 papers, and each paper
28(1 pins 1 making anaggr. gate of 10,984,000 per week,
or 2,079,168,000 per annum. If die products of the oth
er two establishments, and the small amount imported’
are together equal to die above, we should have a grand
total of 4,158,336,000 pins for consumption in die Lim
ed States, equal to 200 on an average, for every man,
woman and child in the country. A pretty liberal al
lowance, we are thinking. The number of pin-mak
ing machines employed by said Company is about 30
and of working people about 60. It would be difficult
to describe these machines so as to make their opera
tions intelligible to those who have not seen them in
motion. We will only say that the wire which wto be
wrought into pins, runs front a reel like yarn,
into one end of the machine, and comes out
at the other, not wire, hut pins, cut pointed and
headed, in the most perlect manner, at die rate
ol 150 a minute. This is about the usual speed, !
hut the machinery is capable of being so adjusted as to j
produce 300 a minute. Being now of a yellowish color I
tltey are thrown, by the bushel, into kettles containing !
a certain liquid, by which they are whitened, and pre- J
pared lor sticking, i. e. for being n'.uck into papers, tit
rows, as they are bought at the stores. This process o, |
sucking is also performed by a machine invented by Mr ;
Slocum. The narrow paper in which the pins are
•tuck, ia wound from a reel, of any imaginable length
and then cut ofl at uniform intervals. One sticking i
machine will stick as many pin* an three put-machines i
can make ; and three of the former can be attended by 1
one girl.
A part of the pins ofihe Am. Pin Company arc mad**
ol Ain. copper, obtained on the borders of Lake Su
perior.
Going to l*nw.
(•"ing to law is another word for going to ruin ; as few
get into the courts without gelling into debt. In rare
cns# a persons go to law from necessity ; but usuully an
ger.or pride, or some other passion has a hand in it |
Men qua riel about a claim, or get vexed at not prompt
ly receiving a debt, nnd without waiting till their exns- |
peraiion cools, plunge into a lawsuit. We do not know |
where we have seen a better illustration of this than in
the following little story, which U so true to human us* i
ture, that moat persons can tee themselves in it as in a
mirror.
1 here was a certain lawyer to whom,one day,a client
came in a violent rage.
L>ok a here, Squire,” said he, “that Vre shoemaker
down to Pigeon Cove has gone and sued me for the nioi.-
*y kr a pair of hoota I owed him ”
” Did the boots suit you ?”
Oh yes—l've got ‘em on—fust rate boots ”
M Pa u; pi ict l M
” Oh yes ‘*
I hen you owe him the money honestly
” Court*.”
’ VV ell, why don’t you pay him 1”
hy. *emic the blunted enob went and eued me.
•ml / i rant to keep him nut of the money if I km.”
” It will cost you something.”
J loot keer (or that. How much money do you
to begin with I”
” Oh, ten dollar* will do “
U that all? Well, here's X, so go ahead,” and the
rlirnt went otT very well satisfied with the beginning.
Oar lawyer next called on the shoemaker, and asked
him what he meant by commencing -ega* proceedings
against M—,
“ w,, y” he,” I kept on sendin’ and aendin’ to
him t or money till I got tired. I know’d he wae able to
pay—/ was ’ termined to make him. That's the long
and short of it.”
Well, said the lawyer, “he’s always been a good
customer to you, and 1 think you acted too hastily.—
1 here s n trifle to pay on account of your proceeding—
hut I think you hid batter take this five dollars and cal 1
it square.’*
” Certain, Squire, if you say so, and glad to get it/*
was the answer.
So the lawyer paid over one V nnd kept the other.—
In n few days his client came along and asked him how
he got on with his case.
” Rapidly,” cried the lawyer—” we’ve nonsuited
him ! he’ll never trouble you.”
“ Jerusalem ! that's great,” cried the client: Vdralh
er a gin fifty dollars than had him got the money for
them boots.'*
DOMESTIC DEPAPTMENT.
fiakt'd Apple J’tidtlinq.
Pare and quarter four large apples ; boil them tender
with the rind of a lemon, in so little water that, when
done, none may remain ; beat them quite fine in a mortar-,
crutnh in a small roll, four ounces of butter melted, four
eggs, the juice of a lemon, and sugar to your taste,
beut all together, and lay it in a dish, with paste to turn
out. Bake it an hour.
To Prepare |Mince-Ofeat for Pies.
*1 ake stoned raisins, currants, sugar and suet, of
e tch 2 lbs ; Sultana raisins boiled heel (lean and tender
of each 1 lb: souror tart apples 4 lbs.; the juice of two
lemons ; the rind of one lemon chopped very fine ; mix
ed spice 1-4 lb; candied citron and lemon-peel, of each,
20z.; brandy one gill; and chop the whole very fine.—
The preparation may be varied by adding other spice
or flavoring, and the addition of eggs, or the substitu
tion of chopped fowl or veal, for beef, according to fan
cy or convenience.
Preserving Pork.
It is generally the practice of farmers, I believe, to
scald their old brine, before putting it on their p,>rk ; and
so absolutely necessary is it supposed to be by most peo
ple, that nothing short of the price ol their pork
would induce them to use their old brine without first
scalding it. Now, allow me confidently to say that the
idea is erroneous, and the practice entirely useless. If
your old brine is sweet and good, and has kept your pork
well, depend upon it will keep the new. For what pos
sible reason is there to suppose that brine will not keep
new also ? It may be said that the brine is full of mat
ter which it has received from the old pork. True it is
and thereiore it cannot extract the heat juices of the new!
For eight successive years 1 assisted in putting down
pork, and ponring upon it the same brine, without be
ing once scalded ; and older the brine, the sweeter ami
better was the pork. The brine was always sweet, and
had plenty of salt at the bottom. The pork was laid
down in the usual maimer, with salt, and the old brine
poured back upon it. The advantages are, having bet
ter pork, besides a saving of labor and trouble Gen.
Farmer.

SANDS’ SAKSAPAICILU.
It is a truth which should lie impressed on the young
and reckless, that every digestive process of the stom
ach, every respiratory action of the lungs, every con
traction of the heart draws something from the unreplcn
ishable resources of organic vitality. It is important
then, for those wno desire long life, to husband tluw
n sources nnd suffer disease to make as lew and as short
drafts upon them ns possible. The great thing is to
check any derangement of the secretions at the outset
and when the fluids which form the basis of blood be
come impure to restore them as s|eedily ns possible to
their natural condition. For this purpose Sands’ Sarsa
parilla will be found a potent agent—strengthening the
digestive organization, purifying the secretions and re-?
laving the bowels by its gentle aperient openttion, from*
all obstructions. In cases of general debility, and ml
ulcerous and eruptive this preparation bus produced
most extroidinary and happy results.
Prepared and sold by A B 6l D SANDS, Druggists,
100 Fulton street, New York, nnd sold bv BRUNO &
VIRGINS, Agents, Macon, On. and by Druggists gen
erally throughout the United Suites.

IN evHry town, village, or neighborhood of the South
individuaU may be luund, who, it ia beUvved are
afflicted with I.iver complaint; btit who really tabor
under a very different diaeaae. The common aymp
toma ol Liver aiiectiona are pain and tenderin'* in tne
right aide, rough skin with a yeiiow or bihoua hue, painn
in the shoulders and frequently in the collar bones, to
gether witli more or leas disorder of the digestive organa.
Out of tins number, not more than nine-tentha have any
of these disturbances, except those of indigestion,
which may and do exist with a healthy state of the Li
ver The error of the age is then, that it is Dyspepsia
or indigestion that constitutes thia numerous clans and
not Liyernffections, as iscomuionly termed. Toprove
that this is a correct view, let any Physician of experi
ence investigate well, nnd he will find not more than
one in every dozen cases have really any disease of the
Liver at ail. Besides this, nearly every case will at
once begin to improve, by the use of the proper reme
dies, or those combined upon scientific principles for the
cure of indigestion.
In conformity to these views, and strictly within the
limits of scientific medicines, have the Tonic Bitters,
Vegetable Pills and Antacid been prepared, for the
cure of Dyspepsia in all its complicated forms. The
Bitters are quite pleasant and gently stimulating, that
nre to be taken two or three times a day, the Antacid
at meal times, and the Pills, (which are tonic and lax
ative,) at night. By thus using the medicine* daily,
the moat wretched cascoi Dyspepsia in all tlie country
will at once begin to improve; not only of that tight
ness und oppression after eating or the eructation of
food, but the powers of digestion strengthened,and a le
gulur action of the bowels maintained Noth withstand
ing the languor und wretchedness of feeling during the
hours of digestion is removed—yet the medicines must
be continued regularly with proper attention to diet, un
til every vestige of the disease is eradicated Invalids
however feeble or delicate can use them with the ut
most advantage, as they never nauseate the stomach
or disturb the bowels more than a mild aperient.
‘These medicines have been much used—a single
package of them will convince any one who may taae
them, of their great utility, to say nothing of the many
cases that might be referred to.
The VEGETABLE PILLS are a most excellent
remedy to obviate costiveness, requiring no attention
afterwards.
