Sir,—-I desire to add my testimony to the value of your Pills. in cases of dropsy. For nine months I sutl'ered the gnizltest torture with this distressing corn- plaint; was tapped three times, and linally given up by the doctors; having; become in appearance as a skeleton, and with no more strength in me than a child just born. It was then, that I thought of trying your I'ills, and iiriiiiediately sent for a quantity, and coinruenced using lIlt‘tll. The result I can scarcely cu-dit even now. although true it is. After using tliein tor four weeks, I felt iriucli better, and bv persevr-ring with tlieiii, at the expiration of two iiionths, I was completely cured. I have since en- joyed the best of health. ani, . ir,

Sir,——l am happy to any, that your Pills have re- stored me to health after suﬂiering for nine years from tlieinost intense general debility and laiigour, my liver and bowels were also muc deranged for the whole of that time.

I shall ever feel

ratelul to you for this astonishing restoration to iealth, and will recommend your Pills to allsutferers, feeling it my duty to do so. remain, Sir, your humble servant, (Signed) VI ILLIAM REEVES.

l\lImsi:ns.—l make it a point of morality never to find fault with another for his manners: they mriv be awku-rir-I or graceful, lilnut or polite. lmfighc,-d or rustic, I care not what they are, if the man means well and acts from honest intentions, without eccentricity or atlcctntiuii. All men have not the iirlrantago of “good sut'i('ty," as it is called. to school themselves in all its farrtastic rules and ceremonies, and if there is any standard of manners, it is only founded in reason and good sense, and hot upon the arliliciul rr-gulalimis. lllanuers. like conversation, should he c.\.'tempo- inner.-us, and not studied. I alwziys suspect a man, who meets me willi the same perpetual sinilc upon his face, the same congeeing oftlio body, andlhe same premeditated shake of the hand. Give me the (it may be rough) gripe of the hand. the careless nod of recognition. and when occasion requires, the hoznely welcoiue salulalion, “ lin\v are you. my old friend l”

The Su|tan’s favorite dwarf, a little man about forty years old, and three feet high, a few years ago, took a notion to marry, and appliul to the Sultan for a wife. The latter gave him Pl.IlIti5' siun to go into his harem and take the mic whom he could I.-iss. The dwarf. like all other short men, was ambitious to have a long wife. While the Sultan's ﬁve hundri-d women, vrliu knew the ieruis on which the dwarf was permitted to cliousc were I:rn,r;liing at the maiiriikin, he wt-nt up to one of the tallest and handsomcst of ll3(‘lll, and struck her a sudden blow on the stomach. She t‘ull'.ips('(l with the pain, and before she could recover, he caught her by the neck and gave lift the dreadvrl kiss. The Sultan kept his word ,aiid the tall beauty is now the mother of the dwarf‘s children.

Cu‘ AS!) Doc Liri:.—James I"cr;znson and his wife led neat and dog life. and she is nu alluded to once in the plrilosoplier’:-i .'itilol~io;_-rapli_v- In 1750, while he was one C\'8IllIl:1 (lt‘ll\'lliIl_‘_: to :r l..ondon audience a Lecture on Astioonrn}, ll s wife enrerr-rl the mom in a passion, and rn:rli:-ious- l_\‘ overtiirned several pieces of the up;-:iialus; when all the Ii('ll(‘0 Ferguson took of the t'.'|lnS‘ tiophe \\ as the observation to his airrlience: “ l.:nlirs and gentlemen, I have the niisfnrlnnc to he in.-iiricd to this \\ oniaii.”

Au ant-cdotc has been told by Croker as one of ilre happiest things he ever heard. Fcirelzvn, who had rrfren teased llichclieu (arid Il|t'lIi‘Clually it would seem) for subscriptions to clinritzible uri- derlakiirgs, was one day telling him that he had just seen his picture. “ And did you ask it for a subscription l" said Richelieu sneerinizly. “ No, lsaw there was no chance,” replied the other, “ it was so like you."

Somebody says, a wife should be like roasted lsmb—iender and nicely dressed. Soinelrody also adds, " and without sauce.”

“ Keep your dog away from me,” said a dandy to a butcher ho_v. “ Darn the dog,” said the boy,“ he always will be after puppies.”

ADVANCE or THE Siscr. VVonirs.—No ﬁring ofthe Russians, be it good or bad, slight or heavy, is able to impede the pro- gress of the works. The surface of ground in the neighbourhood oi the Maln- koﬂ' works, and the Rednii is presenting every day a more checkered appearance. It is one maze, oftrenches, traverses, riﬂe pits, and bntterics—a perfect maze, so that it requires nstrongly developed organ of locality , or else many days oftrcncli duties, to ﬁnd one’s way. The railway is perhaps the best test of the gigantic activity which is prevailing: numbers of mortars and lar e quantities of ammunition come u dni y by it and vanish again silently, to be replaced next day by others. It is as ifthe trenches were an unfathomable abyss, so incredible a mass of mortars, guns, shells, and shot do they seem to swallow up. When they will be satisﬁed and when the word “ enough" will be said, seems as un- certain as Crimean weather. I heard a. few days ago from a French oﬂicer of ar- tillery, that Pelissier, being asked when offensive operations would be again resum- ed, ssid, “ VVell. I don't know; the Rus- sians are losing every day 300 or 400 men by sickness. f we wait a week they will have lost a brigade; if we wait a month they will have lost a car)» 1!’ owner.” But if the Russians loss in men by sickness, they seem to bo carsfii to replace them"

THE Dirrr:naivcs.—At the battle of Waterloo, two French oﬂicers were advan- cing to charge a much superior force. The danger was imminent, and one of them betrayed evident signs of fear. The other ohsei-ving it, said to him:—‘‘ Sir, I believe you are friglitcned.” Yes,” returned the other, “ I am, and ifyon were hnlfitfmuch l'i-iglrtencd, you would run away.” This anecdote exhibits, in ii happy light the dii‘. fti-ciice hctivecn moral and physical cou. rage.

Vii.i.me l§Un.\'r:r>.—-A conﬂagration at Breedsvillc, California, recently destroyed the whole oftliat flourishing town. The inhabitants were at the last accounts living in canvass tents, preparatory to re-erecting their houses.

S'l‘l-IAN.-—Al ti. railway station, an old lady said to a very pompous looking gentleman, who was talking about stcuni coinrnunica— tion, “ l’ray, sir, what is stcain?” “Steriin, ina’uin, is oh! steam is—ch! nli—str-am is —stcum!” “ I knew that chap couldn't tell ye," said it rough looking fellow stand- ing by, “ but steam is ii bucket of water in a trcinciidous pcrspii-atioii. ”

'l'iri-2 Oi.ni:.\' Tl!-tE.—SlX ofthe ivcriltliicst and llmt~‘l i'c.~‘.pcclnble citizcirs of Boston, seventy ‘ears ago, were baker-s. Tliev kiicaded, until they had no longer need. I

A NEW Conasi:.——The ship Harvey Birch has sailed from San Fr-niicisco for Liverpool with 2000 tons of bi-eztdstiiffs.

Census or New Your: Ci'rv.—The census ufNcw York city is at last coinplcte, and slioivs a total population ol'ti'.‘3,(i'.‘li, being an increase of l0B,‘.!37.! in the last live your-s. During the previous ﬁve, the increase was l-t»1,l7l.

I*‘.:.rir.ir.\'i‘ioN T0 Mi.\'.vi:so'i'A.—'I'lic \\'cs- torn lCl'l‘ll(Il'leS of the United States, are being settled with hardy pioi-noes ivitli ti. rapidity liardly credible. Ainong others, Miiiiresota is fast being covered with intelli- gent and eritcrprisiiig citizens. Large numbers, says the C,lIt'(IgO I)uil_Iy Press, are c.\'ploi-ing Southern Miiiriesota, and up the vitllcy ot that lieaiitifiil river. Most of the country bctwccii Lacross and Maiiluito is very liire, well watered, with timber at con- venient distances. The soil oftlic prairies is excellent, and every thing irzvitcs thc industrious and eutci-prising to sock it home in that fertile and licnltliliil region. Land can be had at Government price, of the very best quality The settlers are princi- pally from Northern New York, Ohio, and Canada V\'est. A year ago a pioneer by the name of John Robinson, settled in “High Forest,” in Southern Minnesota, and at that time his nearest neighbour was thirty miles distant, in the direction ofu. town called Lacrosse. There are now seventy-tivo houses on the same road. Mills and stores also have been erected, and improvement is the order ofthe day.

Anoriiizn Aacric Exi-i:niriort.—Tlic Montreal Herald states that the Arctic ex- pedition, ﬁtted out by the Hudson Bay Company, was to have started from Great Slave Lake some time since. The object of this expedition is to visit the locality where, according to the information furnish- ed by l)r. Rae, Sir John Franklin and his unfortunate companions perished, and to ascertain more full particulars, if possible, respecting their sad fate.

DEATH Si-itiNG.—A late California paper mentions the discovery of a spring in El Dorado county in that State, whose waters flow from a bed of arsenic. The mineral deposit is thirty feet thick, and crops out of the surface of the earth. Veins in it abound with gold, and specimens of this surifei-ous ore have been shown to the editor of the Placervillc Jlmcrican. The name of “ Death Spring” has been given to the stream. The existence of it is sup oscd to account for the mortalit among t 0 gold miners at the early perio of the California epidemic.

Arioriisa RAILROAD Accinas-r.--'I'ho N cw York steamboat train via Stonington for Bostoii, on the 4th, was thrown from the track at Kin ston, R. I. by which several of the sooo lass passengers were scri- oualy injured. The at-st-class passengers escaped unliurt.
