‘ WHAT NOT "
The Canary Binn saved from the Wreck
or the Central America. —Our readers will
recollect that amongst the survivors of the ter
rible disaster of the wreck of the Central Amer
ica. in September last, was Mrs, Birch, wife of
Billy Birch, of the minstrels, who was also sav
ed. As Mrs. B. was preparing to leave the
vessel for the brig that received the passengers,
she happened to observe her pet canary bird
*3 its cage, and instinctively opened the door
and nestled the little favorite in her bosom,—
On being lowered in the boat by ropes passed
tinder her arms, she was completely saturated
with the waves, baton looking for her bird, she
found it lying under the edge of her dress un
hurt. This little pet who passed through so
many perils, is now at the Walnut Street House, !
the favorite of all who see it, as it was of its j
mistress, who would not leave it to perish in j
its cage, with the hundreds of human beings
who found a watery grave on the fearful night
of the wreck. The little fellow sings as sweet
ly as though it had ever been free and happy
on the wing.—Cincinnati Gazette.
A Meteor Found.—Quite an excitement has
been caused in Marblehead. Mass., recently, by
the discovery upon River Head Beach of a sub
■tance supposed to be that of a meteor. It pro
bably fell some time in May last, and was seen
by different individuals, but was supposed at
the time to have descended on the waters of
the bay. When found, the substance of the :
meteor was in one solid mass, and covered a
space of eight or ten feet in diameter, weighing
from 600 to 800 pounds. It was probably fluid
when it struck the surface of the earth. It is 1
of a dark color, and resembles molten iron after
cooling. The surface is covered with globules
of different size, which had apparently been
forced upwards by the pressure of the vapor be
low. On being broken, it emits a strong sul- '
phurous smell. It is in no way affected by the '
magnet.
Low Necked Dresses.—ln the early days
of Pennsylvania there was a law, which stated
as follows:
“ That if any white female of ten years or
upward, should appear in any public street,
lane, highway, church, court house, tavern,
ball-room, or any other place of public resort,
with naked shoulders (i. e. low neck dresses,)
being able to purchase necessary clotlung, shall
forfeit and pay a tine not less than one, or more
than two hundred dollars.”
The closing paragraph of the law, however,
permitted women of questionable character to
bare their shoulders as a badge of distinction
between the chase and unchaste.
Lcscs Natub.c.—There was exhibited at the
Agricultural Fair at Montgomery, a child with
two heads, four arms, and four legs, (one body
of course.) of natural size and in good health.
The child is a negro, and we believe was born
in Sumter County, in this State. It lias been to
Europe, where it has excited the wonder of
the Nobility and Aristocracy of that country,
and now returns to its State, no doubt, quite a
noble, pompous 'nigger.'
Breach of Promise.—Miss Hester A. Bur
gess sued N. F. Wood, in Kanawka county,
Va., last week, for damages for breach of prom
ise. It was proved in evidence, says the Val
ley Star, that the young lady was a flirt, and
the jury accordingly awarded her One Cent
damages.
A Mint to Lono-Wixdkd Lawyers.—The
Supreme Court of Appeals adjourned on the
24thjnstant. till the sth of January. Previous
to the adjournment, the Court adopted a rule
to take effect on the latter day. that no counsel
should speak longer than 2 hours and 30 min
utes in any one case, unless by permission from
the Court, first granted before argument com
menced.—Riehinond Di»}«itch.
The Jenninoe Estate.—Mr. John Martin,
of London, has been put in possession of this
property, which for so very long a period has
been without a recognized heir. The cash he
inherits amounts to the gigantic sum of SBO,-
000,000. while his income will be $1.2'25,000
per annum. The lucky inheritor lias been
wretchedly poor all his preceding lite.
Dead. —The family of the lust king of the
French, resident in England, have sustained a
loss in the demise of the Dutchess de Nemours.
Wo have also to record the death of the Infan
ta Amelia, wife of Don Sebastian, ami sister of
tho Dutchess of Tuscany.
Raciiei..— A letter from Mlle. Sarah Felix
has reached Paris giving more satisfactory in
telligence of the health of Mlle. Rachel. Her
medical attendant, it states, considers her out
of danger.
There's many an empty cradle,
There's many a vacant bed,
There’s many a lonesome bosom,
Whose joy and light is tied ;
For thick in every graveyard
The little hillocks lie—
And every hillock represents
An angel in the sky.
BcMBLEBEE Cottos. —T. S. Glover of the
Patent Office, who is travelling through the
South to examine into diseases of the cotton
plant, was recently enlightened in regard to a
new species of cotton.
He was travelling a few days ago from Holly
Springs on the cars, through a section of coun
try where land was entirely sterile, the eotton
being only a few inches high. An overseer
was near him.
“Why, what do you call this?" asked Glov-
“ Why that's cotton.”
‘•Cotton!" he asked again in surprise.
“ Yes, a new kind of cotton sent here by the
Patent office."
“ What is the name of the cotton ?”
“The bumblebee," quietly remarked his com
panion.
" Why that name?”
“ Because it grows so small that a bumblebee
can sit on his tail and suck all the blossoms
without moving."
All hands broke into a loud laugh, and Glov
er acknowledged himself completely sold.
Abrogation of a Venerated Legal Pein- ‘
ciPLK, —That iJd principle of English law which
says that "no man shall be put twice in jeop
ardy for the same offence"—a principle that
dates beyond the days of Alfred—has been
abandoned. The Law Tinies, a periodical pub
lished in London, in noticing the verdict of a
recent criminal trial say ;
“ The courts have gradually restricted the
meaning of this once cherished maxim, until in
the case now under consideration, it has been
reduced to a nullity. We are not prepared to
say whether such a result is desirable, or if it
is not for the public advantage that persons
accused of crime should be subjected to contin
ual trials until a conviction is obtained. Our I
present purpose is merely to record the fact of
the annihilatioH of another of the famuos old
maxims of our jurisprudence, in the hope that
the spirit and letter of the law may he brought
into agreeu»ent. am! that one impartial rule may
be applied to all offenders.”
It was at a pic-nic: Charley had ju-t
turned of 19 years ; he wandered away ami got
lost with Kate Harcourt, a self-possessed beau
ty in high condition for flirting, for she had
three years of hard training. When they had
been away from their party about two hours,
she felt, or pretended to feel the aw kwardness
of their situation, and asked her cavalier, in a
charmingly helpless and confiding way, w hat
they were to.do. “ Well. 1 hardly know,” said
Charley, languidly, "but t don’t mind propo
sing to you, if that will do you any good.” A
fair performance far an untried colt war it not? ,

INHALATION IN CONSUMPTION.
Bronchitis, Laryngitis, and other of the
Chest and Throat, successful Iy treated by the Jnhala- i
tionof Medicated Vapors and Harden, by Absorp
tion and Constitutional Tnatment, as practiced at
the Stuyvesant Medical Institute, Netc York City.
E unprecedented success which has attended
1 this method of ti eating.diseascs of the Lungsand
Throat, has induced us to depart from our usual course
and avail ourselves of the columns of the Press, in
order to bring it to the knowledge of such as may be
laboring under, or predisposed to such affection*.
The dawn of a brighter day has at length arrived for I
the consumptive ; the doctrine of the incurability of
Consumption having passed uwav. We have indubi
table proofs in our possession that Consumption in ;
«Z7 stages can be cured ;in the first, by tubercular
absorption ; in the second, bv the transformation us ,
the tubercule into chalky and calcareous concretions;
in the third, by cicatrices, or scars. Those wedded
to the opinions <»f the past may assert that, even now, *
('onsumption is incurable, such ate behind the age.
To all, this great truth must be apparent, viz: that
the medicine inhaled in the form of Vapor or Powder •
directly into the Lungs must be much more effective !
than that taken into the stomach, wh»*re the diseases
do not exist. The advantage of inhalation in Con- '
sumption and Throat Diseases is, that medicines in- i
haled in the form of Vapor are applied directly to the I
Lungs, where the diseases exist ; the stomach is thus |
left free to aid in restoring health, by administering
to it healthy, life-giving food. There is no case so
I hopeless that Inhalation will not reach ! The means,
too, are brought within the reach of all; the manner
of administering the Vapors being so simple that the
invalid is never required to leave home, where the
hand of friendship and affection adds so much to aid |
the physician’s efforts.
The Inhaling method is soothing, safe and speedy,
and consists in the administration of medicine in such
a manner that they are conveyed into the Lungs in
the form of Vapor, and produce their action at the :
seat of the disease. Its practical success is destined
to revolutionize the opinions of the medical world,
: and establish the entire curability of Consumption. .
I earnestly appeal to the common sense of all as- •
flicted with Lung Diseases to embrace at once the ad
vantages of inliaiMtion, and no longer apply medi
cines to the unoffending stomach. I claim for inha
; lation a place among the priceless gifts that Nature
, and Art hath given us, “that our days may be long
in the land,’’ and as the only Ark of Refuge for the
Consumptive; a method not only rational, but sim- '■
pie and efficacious.
Such of the profession that have adopted Inhala
tion, have found it efficacious in the highest degree, ,
and working wonders in many desperate case>; in |
■ verity, a signal triumph of our art uver this fell de
stroyer of our species.
j Note.—Physicians wishing to make themselves ac-
quainted with this practice, are informed, that our
tune being valuable, we can only reply as to the in- ,
i gredients used, to such letters as contain a fee.
The fee in all cases of Pulmonary Affections will i

! and instrument will be forwarded. Applicants will

if any hereditary disease exists in the family, and
symptoms gem rally. Let the name, town and State
be plainly written. Postage for return answer must

master, will be at our Hsk.

TESTIMONIAL.
Boston, July 10th, 1857.
ALssrs. J. Burnett d' Co.: I cannot refuse to state
the salutary effect, m my own aggravated cane, of
your excellent Hair Oil—(Cocoaine.)
F’ar many months my hair had been falling off, an
til I w<> fearful us losing it entirely. The skin upon
nn head became gi aduallyjnore and inflamcd.so that I
could not touch it without pain. This irritated con
dition I attributed to the use us various advertised
hair washes which I have since been told contained
camphene spirit.
By the advice of my physician, to whom vou had
show’n your uroccsa ot'pmifying the Cocoa s»ut Oil,
I commenced its um* the last week in June. The
first application allayed tin? itching and irritation;
in three or fonr <lav s the redness and tenderness dis
appeared ; the hair ceased to tall, and I have now a
thick growth of new hair. 1 trust that others sim
ilarly afflicted will be induced to try the same reme
dy. Yours, verv truly, SUSAN R. POPE.

PROSPECTUS OF
THE STATE PRESS,
PUBLISHED, AT MACON, GA.
(PROPOSE publishing in the city of Macon a
newspaper bearing the above title, the first num
ber of w Inch w ill be issued as early as practicable in
October i 15.',7). For the present ft will be a weekly
paper, but will be converted into a daily or tri-week
ly as soon a* the encouragement warrants it.
( Believing that Macon, in view of its increasing bu
siness* and its central location with Railroads radia
ting in every direction, is u suitable point for estab
lishing a new paper, I embark in this enterprise with
every confidence of success, and will strive by mak
ing “ Th> State Press" worthy of patronage, to secure
for it both a local support and a general circulation.
And in order to accomplish this object no effort will
be spared to render it in all respects a valuable Fami
ly Journal—complete in its news, literary and politi
cal departments useful and interesting alike to the
Planter, the Merchant, the Mechanic and all other
f cla.-sesof our population —a paper thoroughly identi
fied with whatever concerns the weal or woe of Geor
gia, and one which I hope tu make acccptable to the
citizens of the Stale.
In politics 7’7/e State Press will belong to the South
. era Rights Democratic schhool. While I am iu f>‘
j vor of the preservation of the Union on the basis or
the Constitution, as a Southerner by birth andedu*
cation, I naturally considei the rights, the iuwre«»t>k
and the honor of the Souili *.s paramount to all other
considerations. Hence in the of the
I paper mv motto will be “ Egualify in, the Cniwi at
Indep udence out of it." But, in my humble jndg
ment, there is but one effectual means of preserving
the Union consistently with the uonsti»wtiuual rifcbta.
«>f the South, and therefore I will zealously advoeata
the policy and principles of that good old Democratic
party which has been our only anchor of safety during
the past, and now stamls our only hope fur the fa-
I ture.
The State Press w ill be printed ith new type
a large aheet It will be an aXMMMt nnnlinni fur ad
vertising, as iu rangenuuils have been made to gi' &
it a w ide vireulatiou.
Subscript ion— Two Dyjlar; i>vr annum in
