, A.R‘u”.l'tiIscnirca—t-i: Ono 'I‘iuns.—The Itlt hell in Haverhill, Mass, was purcha-

sed, in, 1131; before our time there was

a angular substitute, as appeared by a vote passed in lG80—“That Abraham Tyler blow his horn half an hour before meeting time oirLord’s Day, and on lec- ture days, and received one pound of pork annually for his services from each family.

luisir Susan.-—The first annual meet- ing of the Irish Beet-root Sugar Com- pany was held recently in London, when a very satisfactory report from the Direc- tors was read and unanimously adopted. The works have all been erected, and operations have commended. The sugar produced has been pronounced extreme- ly good; and the prices obtained in London, Dublin, and Belfast, “ have proved beyond question that the sugar obtained from beets can compete success- fully with the colonial produce of the colic.”

MISAPPLICATION or Wonns av Funnies- nas.-—The misapplication of English words by foreigners is often very ludic- rous. A German friend saluted us once with, ‘Oh, good bye, good bye‘—mean- ing, of course, ' How d’ye do?’ It is said that Dr. Chalmers once entertained a dis- tinguished guest from Switzerland, whom he asked if he would be helped to kipper- ed salmon. The foreign divine asked the meaning of the uncouth ivord kipper- ed, and was told that it meant preserved. The poor man, in a public prayer, soon after offered a petition that the distin- guished divine might long be “ Kippered to the Free Church of Scotland.

The advertising columns of the Aus- tralian newspapers contain several such notices as the following :—“ Wanted, by three respectable, able-bodied men from Canada, employment at clearing, fencing, or splitting firewood, by contract or week- lly wages; apply to Robert Clarke, next

luck’s Stables, Collingwood."

Bennet, Marshall, do Co., of Pittsburgh, have bought a quantity of large iron can- nons in Canada, which they will convert into railroad iron. The cannon were used against the United States through- out the war of l8l2. and, it is said. made if havoc among our troops at Malden nd Lundy,s Lane. Converting cannons nto railroad iron is a near approach to ting swords into plough-shnres.——Alb. Kriick.

PUNCTUATION.

An ingenious expedient was once devised to save a prisoner char ed with robbery, in the Criminal Court at IJublin. The prin- cipal thing that appeared in evidence against him, was a confession, alleged to have been made by him at the police office, and take do an in writing by a police oflicer, ‘and the following passage was read from " a

"Magnum said he never robbed but twice said it was Crawfo ."

This, it will be observed, has no mark of the writer's havin any notion of punctua- tion, but the meaning be attached to it was t is.’-

“ Magnum said he never robbed but twice:—said if was Crawford."

Mr. O’Gorman, the council for the pri- soner, begged to look at the aper. He perused it, and rather astonished the peace oflicer by asserting that, so far from prov- ing the guilt of the prisoner, it clearly proved his innocence.

" This," said the learned gentleman, "is the fair and obvious reading of the sen- tcnc .

" Magnum said he said it was Crawford.

This interpretation had its effect upon the jury, and the man was acquitted.

CUIING Hssis.—In the last Patent Of- dee Report, James Cam bell, of Weston, New Jersey, gives the fol owing as a supe- rior rocess for curin hams:—' ‘ The best methodl have found for curing hams is, after the bums have been cut, let them lie out on a shelf, where they can have plenty of cool air, so that the animal heat is en- tirely out of them before you attempt to put them down in salt ; then corn them down for two or three days ; after which drain ofl' any bloody water which may oarne out ; and then make the following pickle, suf- ficient to cover them:--Take 9 pounds of salt, 3 ounces of saltpetre, I ounce of salm- rstus, 4 pounds of brown sugar or molas- ses, and six gallons of water, let them lie in the above pickle f'rom three to six weeks, sec g to the size of the hams, when

oumny take them out and smoke them with good hickory or apple-wood until suf- fiefent to suit your taste. They should then be taken down and hung up in a dry, cool

less. in bags to protect them from the flies. Ihave lisms~eured after the above method, which were almost as fine when eighteen months old as when taken from the sinoke- house. while upon 'the subject of heme, they should be boiled until done, in

The following teslirnoniarl has been sent to Professor Holloway, by It gsntienian named Middlslowi, of Scotland Road, I.ir:¢rpool. Sir,—-Your Pills lisve been the means. under Pro- videncs. of restoring me to sound health. after five years of severe iililiction. During the whole of that period, I have suffered the most dreadful attacks of Asthma, frequently of several weeks’ duratioa,nttend- ed with a violent cough, and continual I itting of phlegm intermixed with blood. This so a 00k my constitution that I was urifitted for any of the active duties oflife. I was ntteiided by some of the most eminent medical men of this town, but they failed to give me the slightest rt.-lief. As a last remcdy,l tried your Pills, and in about three months they efl'eeted a perfect cure of the disease. totally eradicated the cough. and restored tone and vigor to the client and digestive organs. am, Sir. your obedient Servant,

Dear Sir,—In this district your Pills command a more extensive anle their tiny other proprietary medi- cine before the public. As a preofof their etlicacy in Liver and Bilious complaints, I may mention the fol- lowing case: A lady of this town, with whom I am

rsoually acquainted for years, was a severe sufl'en-r from disease of the Liver and digestive organs; her medical attendant assured her that he could do no- thing to relieve her sufferings, and it was not likely she could survive many months. ‘ii announce- ment naturnlly caused great riliirm among her friends and relations. and they induced her to make a trial of your Pills, which so improved her general health that

she was induced to continue them until she received a perfect cure. This is twelve months ago, and she has not experienced an symptoms of relapse, and often declares that your Pills have been the means of saving her life.

I remain, Dear _Sir,“yonrs truly.

To Professor Honnowav, Si — to inform you that for years I was a safl'erer from Chronic Rlieuniatisni. and was often laid up for weeks together by its severe and painful attacks [tried everything that was recommended. and was uttetided by one of the most eminent sur- geons in this town. but obtained no relief whatever; and fearing that III health would be entirely broken up, I was indu to go into our County Hospital, where d the best medical treatment the Institu- tion sdbrded, all of which proved of no avail, and I came out no better than I went in. I was then ad- vised to try your Pills, and b persevering with them was perfectly cured. and ens led to resume my occu- pation, snd although a considerable riod has elaps- ed, I have felt no return whatever u the complaint. I am, Sir, your obgred Servant. (Sign ) W. MOON. Oct. 8th. 1852.

Copy of a Letter from Mr. G. Briggs, Chemist, Goals, dated February Ibfli. I858. To Professor Honnowliv.

Sir.--I have much lsasure in informing on of a most surprising cure o Dropsy, recently a scted by your valuable medicines. captain Jackson, of this place, was sflicted with Dropsy for upwards of eigh- teen mouths, to such an extent that it caused his bod and limbs to be much swollen, and water oozed as it were from his skin, so that a daily change of apparel became canary; notwithstanding the various reme- dies trisd. and the diflerent medical men consulted, all was of no avail, until be commenced using your Pills, by which, and a strict attention to the printed directions, he was efeeturilly cured, and his health perfectly re-established. If you deem this worthy of publicity, you are at liberty to use it.
