(Scittrnl Ctlrrtir. [From the London Chronicle.] CONFESSIONS OF \ SWORD SWAL LOWER. 1 have been connected with the con juring and tumbling professions, and every branch of them, for forty-six years. I lost my mother when a child, a id my lather was a carpenter, and al lowed me to go with the tumblers. 1 continued tumbling until my feet were knocked up. 1 tumbled twenty-three or twenty four years. It was never what you call a good business, only a living. 1 got £3 a week certainly, at one time, and sometimes £4; but you had to live up to it, or you were no thing thought of; that is to say, if you kept ‘’good company.” Now there is not a living to be made at the trade. — Six and twenty years ago 1 began to practise sword swallowing against the celebrated Kamo Samee, who was then getting £25 or £3O a week. 1 first practised with a cane, and found it diffi cult to get the cane down. When I first did it with the cane 1 thought I was a dead man. There's an aperture in the chest which opens and shuts ; and it •keeps opening and shutting, as I under stand it; but I know nothing about what they call anatomy, and never thought about such things. Well, if the cane or sword goes down upon this aperture when it is shut, it can go no further, and the pain is dreadful. If it’s open, the weapon can go through, the aperture closing on the weapon.— Ihe first time I put down the cane 1 got it back easily, but put my head on the table and was very sick, vomiting dreadfully. 1 tried again the same af ternoon, however, three or four hours afterwards, and did it without pain. 1 d.d it two or three times more, and the next day boldly tried it with a sword, and succeeded. The sword was blunt, and was thirty six inches long, an inch wide, and perhaps a sixth of an inch thick. I felt frightened with the cane, but not with the sword. Before the sword was used, it was rubbed with a handkerchief, and made warm by fric tion. 1 swallowed swords for fourteen years. At one time 1 used to swallow three swords, a knife, and two forks, of course keeping the handles in my mouth, and h iving all the blades in my stomach together. I felt no pain. No doubt many of the audience felt more pain in seeing it than lin doing it. I wore a Turkish dress both in the streets and the theatres. I never saw ladies faint at my performance—no, there was no nonsense of that kind. Gentlemen often pulled the sword and knives by their handles out of my mouth, to con vince themselves that it was real, and they found it was real, though the peo ple to this day generally believe it is not. Iv’e sometimes seen people shud der at my performance, but I general ly had loud applause. 1 used to hold my head back with the swords in my stomach for two or three minutes. I’ve had a guinea a day for sword swallow ing. 1 his guinea a day was only for a few days at fair times. I was with old “ salt-box” Brown, too, and swal lowed swords and conjured with him. 1 swallowed swords with him thirty times a day—more than one each time, some times three or four. I had a third ot the profits; Brown had two-thirds. We divided after all the expenses were paid. My third might have been thir ty shillings a week, hut it wouldn’t be half as much now if I could swallow swords still. If 1 could swallow a tea kettle now the people would hardly look at me. Sometimes—indeed, a great many times—say twenty —I have brought up oysters out of my stomach after eating them, just as 1 swallowrd them, on the end of the sword. At other times there was blood on the end of the blade. I always felt faint after the blood, and used to take gin or any thing I could get at hand to relieve me, which it did for a time. At last I in jured my health so much that I was obliged to go to the doctor’s. I used to eat well, and drink too. , hen 1 felt myself injured by the shallowing 1 had iost my appetite, and e octor advised me to take honey and liquids, tea, beer, and sometimes f ,o° gro . s * At three months’ end, 16 ? A . me I swallowed swords it would be my death; but for all that I was forced to swallow swords to get a meal to swallow. 1 kept swa i lo * ; swords three or four years after this not feeling any great suffering. I then tnought 1 would swallow a live snake. I’d never heard of any one, Indian or any body, swallowing a live snake. It came into my head once by catching a grass snake in the fields in Norfolk. I said to myself, as 1 held it by the neck, “ There seems no harm ia this fellow ; I’ll try if I can swallow him.” I tried then and there, and 1 did swallow him. It felt cold and slimy as it went down. 1 didn’t feel afraid, for 1 kept tight hold of him by the tail; and no one has any right to be afraid of a grass snake.— When I brought the snake up again, in about three minutes, it seemed dead. After that i introduced snake swallow ing into my public performances, and did so for about four years. 1 have taken five shillings, and as low as one shilling, when 1 have swallowed snakes in the streets of London. I catehed my own snakes a few miles from Lon don, and killed very few through swal lowing on ’em. Six snakes, properly fed on milk, lasted me a year. The snakes never injured me ; and 1 shouldn’t have given it up, but tbe per formance grew stale, and the people would give me anything for it. 1 have swallowed swords in the streets thirty to forty times a day, and snakes as often, both in town or country. 1 thought once I couldn’t have followed any other sort of life; you see I’d been so long accustomed to public life; besides 1 may have liked it far better than labour, as most young men do, but no labour can be harder than mine has been. If my father had been what he ought, he might have checked my childish do ings and wishes. 1 have tried other things, though, in the hope of bettering myseif. 1 have tried shoemaking for five or six years, but couldn't get a liv ing at it. 1 wasn’t competent for it— that’s two years ago—so now I’m mu sician to a school of acrobats. Very many like me remain in the street busi ness, because they can’t get out of ir; that’s the fact. Whilst 1 swallowed swords and snakes I played the fire eater. I did it once or twice last week. 1 eat red-hot cinders from the grate; at least I put them in my mouth real ly red-hot cinders. 1 have had melted lead in my mouth. 1 only use a bit of chalk. I chalk my palate, tongue, and fingers; it hardens the skin of the tongue and palate, but that’s all. Fire eating affects the taste for a time, or rather it prevents one tasting any thing particularly. I’ve eaten fire for twen ty years in the streets and in public places. It hadn't brought any money of late years. I wasn t afraid when 1 first tried it by eating a lighted link— a small flambeau. 1 felt no inconve nience. The chalk did every thing that was right. You may stroke a red hot poker with chalked hands and not be burnt. I make the same as the acro bats; perhaps I average 12 s. a week, and have a wife and six children, the oldest under eleven, to maintain out of that. Sometimes we’re obliged to live upon nothing. When I was slipper making 1 had from 3s. 6d. to 4s. a dozen, the grindery costing me Is. 6d., leaving me 2s. for a dozen. I eou!d only clear 6s. a week by it; that’s all I could get out of the slop-shops.— There’s one thin” coming from sword swallowing that I ought to mention. — I'm satisfied that llamo Samee and 1 gave the doctors their notions about a stomach-pump. llwiiimjri nt Ilnniumt. ‘l’ll put you through a course of sprouts,’ as the man said when he plant ed his potatoes. A woman that does not love a flower —particularly a so/i-flower—deserves not to be loved. If a man were to set out calling everything by its right name, he would be knocked down before he got to the corner of the street. Never be angry with your neighbour because his religious views differ from yours; for all the branches of a tree do not lean the same way. When Simpkin’s wife kicked him out of bed, says he—“ Bee here, now! you'd better not do that again! If you do, it will cause a coolness!” There is a young Miss in this city, who, when her parents refuse to allow’ her to attend a ball, will set to and have a bawl at home. Interesting child, that, ———— It is full fifteen years ago that we asked an acquaintance how he felt while a prisoner in Egypt; but we re member the reply : “l felt like a book— bound in Morocco.” A Western editor requests those of his subscribers who owe him for more than six years’ subscription, to send him a lock of their hair, so that he may know they are living. “Is them there Bibles?” asked a verdant specimen, of the clerk of the superior court, as he pointed to a pile of blank records of wills. “ No,” an swered the clerk, “ those are testa ments.” A Western paper informs us that “a lady, w hile stepping into one of the cars with a pair of spectables on, missed her footing, and came near losing her life.” A car with a pair of spectacles on must be a curiosity. “ How is your son to-day ?” asked a friend of a stock-brother. “Very bad,” replied the old gentleman, striving to compose his agitated features; “very bad indeed ! 1 would not give ten per cent, for his chance of life.” “Julius, do you know de halls ob de Mon tezu mars ?” “Os course I does, nigga; he’s de brother of Gen. Taylor, and was nurs ed by Sarah Gordon.” “Why, how de darky talks; by and by coloured men will know as much as the militia.” “ What are you writing there, mv boy?” asked a fond parent the other day of his hopeful son and heir, a shaver of ten years. “My compesition, thir.” “ What is the subject?” “ International law, thir,” replied the youthful Grotius. “But really, 1 shall be unable to con thentrate my ideas, and give them a logical relation, if I am conthantly in terrupted in tliith manner by irrelevant inquiries.” SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE. far tilt THE ALLINE TUNNEL. Modern utilitarianism is rapidly de stroying the romance of travel, and the wonders of nature will soon be en tirely eclipsed by the triumphs of art. The Britannia tubular bridge is a great er marvel than the Meuai straits, and the Suspension bridge at Niagara shares the popular applause with the cataract. We can go by steam through the Orient, and will, ere long, cross the Isthmus of Suez in a railroad car. Ruins are be ing demolished to make way for mo dem improvements; brigands, and other romantic incidents of travel, fly before the car of progress —the locomotive— and travellers now-a-days can as little count upon a “sentimental journey,” as they can count upon a journey to the moon. Even the Alps are to be abol ished from the catalogue of travellers’ wonders, and instead of scaling the heights and wondering at the magnifi cence of mountain, valley, glacier and cataract, we are to slide through the interior of Mt. Cenis and emerge on the opposite side, leading nature and all her marvels far over head, while art drags us through a pitchy tunnel. To give an idea of the nature of the great seven mile tunnel through the Alps, we are enabled to inform our readers, from descriptions given in Ei - glish journals, that in its progress th ■ tunnel must pass under some of the most elevated Crests of Mount Cenis —one, in particular, where there will be 4850 feet of mountain, capped with eternal glaciers, over head, at the mid dle of the tunnel; so that not only will tlfe workmen and machinery in con struction, and the passengers and trains in transit, be buried to that depth in the heart of the mountain, but all idea of shafts, either to facilitate excavation, or to promote ventilation, must be out of the question. The breath of life it self must be respired, from either ex tremity, with artificial aid, in the shape of currents of fresh air transmitted, and of foul withdrawn, by mechanical ap paratus ever at work, at least during excavation, which is also itself to be ef fected by machinery of anew and sim pie nature, worked by water power of mountain streams, whereby the trains are also to be run through the tunnel, which ascends, from the northern or Sa voy side, at Modane, all the way to its exit at Bardonneche, with a gradient equal to 19 in 1,000. The machine, once presented to the rock, projects in to it simultaneously four horizontal se ries of sixteen scalpels, working back wards and forwards by means of springs cased in, and put in motion by the same water power. W hile these are at work, one vertical series on each side works simultaneously up and down, so that altogether they cut four blocks, or rather insulate four blocks on all sides, except on the rock behind, from which they are afterwards detached by hand. It has been already ascertained, that each of the two machines, at the oppo site side of the tunnel, will excavate to the extent of twenty-two feet a day ; and it is estimated that the whole exca vation will be completed in four years. The gallery to be perforated by the ma chines will be thirteen feet wide by seven feet high; and this once cut through, the bore will be enlarged by ordinary means to twenty-five feet in width and nineteen feet in height, and a double line of rails laid. The esti mated cost of this great tunnel is only 13.804,9421’ or about $2,700,000. It is to be immediately commenced at the north entrance. Hannibal and Napoleon little imagin ed that the perils of the passage of the Alps were to be abolished in this sum. mary manner, by science in 1850. No after hero can ever boast of the gigan tic task which the Carthagenian and French generals accomplished, for sub sequent armies will be sure to pass through the tunnel, comfortably seated in railroad cars, rather than drag artil lery over the mountain roads, with fin gers and toes freezing in the bitter air, and enduring privations that are to car ry their names, or their General’s name, down to posterity as models of endu rance and courage. Travellers —all ex cept poets and romantic ladies—will pre ferthe journey through the bowels of the mountains, to the labour and delay of the journey over their summits, and hereafter crossing the Alps will be looked upon as a traditionary absurdi ty, abolished by the common sense views of the nineteenth century. [ Bulletin. GLASS WATER PIPES. We are glad to know that glass tubes are now coining into a very general use for conveying water. Mr. Win., T. Ue Golyer, of Schenectady, N. Y., has a patent for making tubes of such a form as to couple different lengths together, and form glass conductors for water, of any length. About 1000 rods of glass pipes of different diame ters have already been laid down, and Mr. John Matthews, of First Avenue, this city, has tested the strength of a pipe 1 1-4 inch in diameter, made at the Albany Glass Works, (Mr. Mayer, 139 Front st., N. Y., is agent,) and found it capable of standing a pressure of 200 lbs. to the square inch, or a column of water 450 feet high. Mr. Wilson, of Hastings, a few miles out of the city, has connected these glass tubes with a hydraulic ram to stand a pres sure of 80 feet high. After the joints were cemented only four days the wa ter was let on, and the joints were found perfectly tight. It is well known that glass is anti-corrosive, and resists all action of the elements of air and every kind of water: it is therefore in destructible, and when kept from the action of frost, it may be considered as enduring as the everlasting hills.— By them water is conveyed in all its purity from the fountain, as the interior is too smooth to allow any weeds or vegetable formation to adhere to it. — We do not know the price for laying down different sizes of pipe, (although they are very cheap), but Mr. De Gol year or Mr. Mayer will no doubt promptly furnish all necessary infor mation on the subject, if letters are ad dressed to them, post-paid. [Scientific American. Paper Folding Machine. —We have seen several descriptions of the newly invented machine for the folding of sheets from the press, but until yester day never saw it in operation. One of the inventions lias been temporarily at tached to the printing press of the Tran script, and the sheet as worked off ful ly printed, passes through a succession of four sets of cylinders, placed at right angles, one above the other, which deliver the paper upon a platform, com pletely folded as fast as it is printed. — We have a young man in our office who thinks that he can beat steam in fold ing papers, but the machine beats him.

Near Pittsburg there lives an aged Dutchman, named Jacob Heinman, who has by his industry accumulated a large property. The old man is at all times ready to yield up his sub stance liberally, for the support of schools. He deems it his duty to do this feeling the want of early education in his own case. A gentleman called upon Jacob not long ago, to ask his aid in establishing an academy in the adjoining county, and in the course of his appeal to the old man’s philanthropy, he casually ob served that there were many words in the English language which signify the same thing, and that it was neces sary that boys should learn them from books. “ Schtop—schtop—l know dat,” said Jacob. “ Now 1 dells you how I knows dat.

Here ish de mo ney.— Cineinnati Gazette. £3pln New England, many years ago, it was absolutely indispensable that the cellar of every famby, who laid claim to any respectability , should boast of a barrel of pork. Consequent ly, as it is a Kingly prerogative to pos sess the power of conferring the “hon our of Knighthood” upon a “ common mortal,” so was t his “vile stuff”—which Jews regard with such an intense de gree of loathing—invested with the mi raculous faculty of elevating to a grade of comparative distinction or depress ing to a point which “ argues yourself unknown,” any individual in society. The unfortunate Mr. Hogsf esh , in Lamb’s farce of “ Beware of a Bad Name,” notwithstanding the high esti mation in which pigs ought to be held, would have lost both a beautiful mis treas and a tempting fortune, had not a generous and witty parliament mag nanimously changed his name t<> Bacon. A gentleman, in a certain little town where an aristocratic feeling prevailed to an alarming extent, was blessed with two daughters, who had long ambitious ly panted after wealthy husbands, and the entree into fashionable society, and whose claim to that latter enviable pri vilege was not quite firmly enough es tablished. This gentleman, to his hor ror, one day, met a villainous looking rascal rapidly ascending his cellar stairs, laden with “ stolen sweets.” — With a dauntless courage he rushed upon him, and, in thundering tones, roared forth, “ You young desperado, what are you doing in my cellar?— Stealing my pork , I suppose ! You shall rue it, sir!” The unblushing bur glar, with an effrontery worthy of all admiration, his keen eves twinkling with Yankee shrewdness, avowed the premeditated theft of pork, “ but,” con tinued he, “I didn't find any, and if you will let me off, I won't expose you.” [Drawing Room Journal. Smart.—A little boy was sent up stairs by his mother to get a satchel that hung behind a wardrobe. The boy returned without the required article, upon which his mother asked : 1 Couldn’t you find it’!’ ‘ Yes; I saw it there, but— ’ ‘Why didn’t you get it then V ‘ Because the old musket stood close by it,’ said the boy shaking his head knowingly, \md I was afraid it would snap.’ Linden is the heading to a very amusing parody on Campbell’s famous ode on the Battle of Hohenlin den, which we find in a Boston news paper : “ On Lind, when Barnum’s sun was low, And bootless was the Mermaid's show, The lessee counted for a flow Os rhino to his treasury. “ And Jenny Lind, whose ready sight Saw Barnum in his golden light, Said, for a ‘ thousand ’ every night, She’d sing to all Ameriky.” from the argument of a young lawyer before a Mississippi Jus tice : ‘ May it please the Court—l had rather live for thirteen hundred centu ries on the small end of a thunderbolt —chew the ragged end of a flash of lightning—swallow the corners of a \ irginia worm fence and have my bow els torn out by a green brier, than to be thus bamboozled by the gentleman.

Philadelphia, June, 1850. ts JOSEPH GILLOTT’S STEEL PENS. MANUFACTURERS WAREHOUSE, 91 JOHN-STREET, NEW YORK. ALARGEstock of these well known PENS constantly on Hand, lor sale as above. CAUTION. —Certain PRETENDED MANUFAC TURERS ol Steel Pens, having adopted Joseph Gil lott’s style of Label, his mode of putting up his Pens, and also Designating Numbers, he desires to give the following NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC. That all genuine packages or boxes of Joseph Gil lott’s Pens have a sac simile ol his signature on the reverse side. None other are genuine. This caution espe cially refers to his original No. 303, the great popularity of wiiieh lias caused it to be imitated, and the uumberadopt ed by a host of PRETENDED MAKERS. Joseph Gillott would further advise the public that, in all cases where his Numbers and the phraseology of his Labels are adopted by the parties above alluded to, the Pens are not made by him, although asserted to be. An experience of tliirtv years has enabled Mr. Gillott to bring hi* Steel Pens to the highest state of perfec tion, and the liberal patronage which he haa long enjoyed at the hands of theAmeriean public, will incite him to con tinued exertion to maintain the favor which lie has ac quired.
