‘ 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? , Gm< Llrinatten BAZAAR OF FASHION ’ $50,000 WORTH ~)F the most elegant, rich and varied assortment .

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 . be 810, on receipt of which the necessray medicines' ! and instrument will be forwarded.
