She had came to the house of her mother, who 1 haddied shortly previous, and feeling un welly sought something in the way of med icine to rdleive her. Finding a bottle, she placed it to her nose and found it. smelled of .ether, and this was what she wanted. Without investigating, she swallowed a spoonful of the liquid, but instantly dis covering her mistake she turned the bottle and found it labelled “ Bug Poison.” A physician was immediately called in, who administered powerful emetics and at|ti dotes Which dislodged the poison in about fifteen minutes and thus saved her life.

The great- beieler, here tofore, to the introduction of these works, has been the high price at which they have been held, but this objection is being awr wswona by' the publication of the works of Soott in such a form and at sueh a low as to bring them withintfae means of all persons whatever.

Editors: — l notice in jour last number another communication from “ Mr. Tax Payer” referring to the Poor House account.— In the former communication of “Mr Tax Payer,” I was at a loss to know what he meant, but in bis last, it is plainly to be seen, that it is a personal attack on me. He says that be re ferred to my report and found the admitted du ring the year 1868, were 72, dismissed 52, eloped 4, and deaths 13. He inf ers from that, that there were rory few in the house, and that 1 charged for the support of the dismissed, eloped and the dead. H e says if this statement is true how many would remain, ic. From these references it appears does not understand the monthly report. He has forgotten that there were 65 paupers in the poor house on the first day of January, 1858. He appears to be very anxious to know how I get the 611 paupers. By referring to the monthly report, it will be seen that the total number is carried out each month, and by dividing it at x the end of the year makes 611, and by dividing by 12, we get the average number per month. He also states that 1 have omitted the profits of the Ten Thou sand Dollar Farm. We feed ourselves, the Poor of Blair county, and the farm stock from the products the farm, and if there is anything left it ijs sold for'the best price that we can get for it, and' the money is applied foi the use of the institution. As to the many articles traded off, whatever exchanges were made are justly set forth in my report. If Mr. “ Tax Payer” has any morq to say I request him to give his real name. . E. McGEAW. Isdiahs Livixo ox tub Sap or Pike. —Daring » hard winter in Northern California, the mis erable Indians are frequently driven to the most terrible straits for food; and in order to keep from starving, they sometimes partake of unsa vory dishes. Late in the winter, or rather ear ly in the spring, their article of subsistence is the sap of the white pine, (the sugar pine.) To obtain this they strip the bark from the body of the tree, scrape the inner surface with sharp stones, and in this they gather a sort of mucil age or sap, (pipe sugar,) which they devour with great relish. By this means thousands of splendid trees are annually destroyed iu the dense forests of Siskiyou and Shaska.. Tlie bark is usually stripped entirely off to the bight of twenty or thirty feet.. Upon the naked sur face of the trunk, .immense quantities of pitch will‘exude, and whenever the woods are set on fire—which is not an unfrequent occurrence— these pitch covered trees make the grandest bonfire ever witnessed. i *4- Ihsocekce or Billiaeds,— On Saturday ev ening last, .Mr. Phelan and bis friends gave an exhibition of their: skill to. the ladies of'Detroit, who attended in large numbers. ; Phelan, and Tiemann were the principal players Before opening the game it was stated by Mayor Terry, on behalf of Mr. Phelan, that the players'did not intend to) try 'what long runs they could maJw.or anything of that kind, but that the exhibition was given, more to satisfy the women of Detroit, that in the game/ofbiUiards itself there was nothing to affect .the most fastidious, but on. the contrary, that it wae'yti game fully scientific as chess, requiring nn.acCurate know ledge bf.the angles of the table," delicacy of touch, good judgement as to the place to strike the balls, and the particular degree of force by which they should be ipropelled. The exercise was not only excellent for the mental, but also for the physical powers. The audience were much pleased .with the performance. £itptreA»Cß of llousss —Some carious expo* riments hare been made at the vetinary school. (just outside Paris), by order of the- Mimster of War, to ascertain the endurance of horses, as in a beseiged town, for example. It appears a horse will lire on water alone five and-twenty days; seventeen days without eat ing or drinking; only five days if fed but un- ten days if fed and sufficiently wateVed. A horse kept without water for three days drank one hundred and four pounds of water in three minutes. It was found, too, that a horse taken immediately from “feed” and kept in the active exercise of the *• sqoadroon school,” com pletely digested its “ feed” in three ’ hours, in the some time in the, “conscript’s school” its' food was-two-thirds'digested; and if kept per fectly quiet in the stable, Its digestion was scarcely commenced jp three hours.

To : enclose one in a newspaper, paying only newspaper postage, is a violation of the law, and subjects the offender to a penalty of $5. The General Post Office, the other day, received a return package marked and postpaid “ newspaper/’ to a town in Illinois, containing the Wavorly Magazine of Match 26tb,igHrinted in Boston. enclosing an amprotype, Wn a very pretty note, of a beau tiful young girl, directed to ft Mr. jE.

A Sermon of Moderation. —A Scotch parson once preached a long sermon against dram-drink ing.a vice prevalent in his perish, and from which, report said he was not free bims.-lf, “ Whatever yodo, brethren, do it with moderation, aud abovc all be moderate in dram-drinking. When you got up, indeed, ye may take A dram, and anither before breakfast, and perhaps another after; but dinna be always dram-drink vug. If ye are out in the moru, ye may just brace yourself up with anither dram, and perhaps take anither before luncheon, and some, I fear, take one after which is not so very blamablo; but dinna be always dram dramming away, Naebody can scruple for one just before dinner, and when the desert is brought)-in. an’ after it’s ta’en away; and per haps ane, 6r it may be twa, |n the course of the afternoon, just to keep you ifra drowsylng and snozzliug; but dinna ;be always dram-dram dcamming. Afore tea; and after tea, and be tween tea and supper, and before and afjer sup per, is no more than right and good; but let me caution ye, brethren, not to be always dram dramming. Just when' ye start fpr bed, and when ye’re ready to pop in|o’t. and perhaps, when ye wake in the night,; to take a dram or twa is no more than a Christian maiy lawfully do; but, brethren, let me ■ caution you not to drink more than I’ve mentioned, or maybe we may palas the bounds of moderation.” Almost a. Fatal Baptism. —On Sunday, the 19th ult, a young lady. MiSs Salliefcummfngs, was baptised in the Susquehanna river, at Se linsgrove. The Times says:—A great many persons had gathered upon,the bank of the riv er to witness the ceremony, which, very unfor tunately, almost proved fatal to the lady and the gentleman, who performed the ceremony.— The river being high, in consequence of the rains, the water at this point was vefy deep and rapid; and owing to an inexcusable degree of imprudence or ignorance oh .the part of the per son administering the ordinance, both were car ried away by the force of the current. There was & great excitement for a ihoment and the preacher called for a boat, when Mri Holmes a very tall and stout man, rushed into the river and seized Mr. Bay, | thh minister, by the arm, thus, ho doubt, sating them from a watery grave; for had the current been allowed to car ry them one yard further dqwm they would have reached a point in the river too deep to touch bottom, and we would not' have given one fig for the life of either; for' Miss Cummings, all this while, was certainly unconscious of what was transpiring and bow db*p she was in the Jordan of death.” if }t -i : i 1- Embarrassing lNcit>ENT,-k-Tbe tribe of Win nebago Indians who .passed) through Wheeling recently, stopped at we Juhiata House, Wash-, Ington city.

TheßotbscbuH} Bridal Dihser. —The Paris correspondent of Guttle says ~i great evenVln the-ieew monde of this place has been the Rothschild marriage. The mag nificence was beyond all description, audit would appear that spendorrs, vicing with those recounted in the Arabian Nights, were ed upon an entertainment to which ad body, waa admitted. I mean the dinner given after the nuptial ceremony, and afr which come sixty or ■ seventy Botbscbilds alone Were present. As no one but the family were present at this /ouaoa —-asthe Spaniards entitled their bull fights and other amusements—-of course the feminine pub lic curiosity has been immeasurably excited by : it, and every young male Rothschild has been cross-examined by the fair ladies of Paris, ever since, in order that they may arrive at an ap proximate knowledge of the “festevejscene.” — It seems- that all the plate o!' all wo houses of Rothschilds nearly, was forthcoming for this; banquet—at least the Kondon chief sent bis, dinner service eve? to his cousin of Paris, and the entire changes of the more than three store gupsta were made in silver arid silver-gilt; plates, dishes, evervthing, were of the precious metals, as at the royal tables, only at desserts was per ceived the priceless service of old Sevres, belong ing to the Paris pater familiat, and whereof each plate represents somewhere about a king’s ran som. As to the vivands on the table, they came from every country and every clime; they were swallows’ nests from China, sterlets (a fish of excessive high price in Rusia, of the size of salmon, and of fat, orange-colored ■flesh) from Russia, reed birds and canvass black ducks from America, buzzards from Spain, pheasants from Bohemia, entrees of Peacocks’ brains, fillets of buffalo bump, and—one of my lady informants declares—salmis of Brazilian parrots ! Every salt or fresh water has yielded up its fish; every moor, marsh and forest its fowl; every hotbed beuted by fire or'the sun its fruit; aud every grape that ovec hung anywhere its wine As to the flowers with which the table and di ning room weie ornamented, it is affirmed that there were 1,600 pounds worth. (I mean JEI,- 600 English!) All the windows were covered with trellis work, over which were framed the ch icest creeping plants of the tropics, shedding their luscious perfumes sil around.r If the re past was worthy of an Emperor of a century ago, the tribe of Rothschild seems to have been worthy of it, and to have done it due honor. — In the first place, it is affirmed that the ladies present wore upon their persons between twen ty and thirty millions of francs’ worth of jewels, and iu the way of doing honor to the banquet, those who partook ef it sat at the table from 6 to midnight. In Cincinnati, on Thursday evening last, a boy named Thomas .Welsh, about ten years of age, was shot in' the fofehead by a companion, and instantly killed. It appears that several boys were at play, when one of them drew a pistol and playfully pointed it at young Welsh, who dodged about a little, when the pistol went off and the ball entered his forehead. The wounded boy staggered for an instant, fell to the ground, and expired in a few minutes. The dead body of the lad was carried home to bis parents,' and when the police arrived, another, lad named Cady was pointed out by some of the other boys as tbe one who fired the pistol, and he was taken into custody and locked up in tbe station-house. The boy told a very frank, art less story about the accident—for an accident it undoubtedly was—but denied emphatically that he fired the pistol or had it in bis hands, lie named the lad, however, who did commit the fatal act, which young Cady attributed entirely to carelessness, and not design. Subsequently James Smith, who actually fired the pistol, gave himself up to the officers, and frankly confes sed the act,, exonerating young Cady. As soon us the wounded boy fell to tbe ground, he knelt by his side, and said “Don’t cry Tommy, 1 didn’t mean to hurt you;” but seeing the blood flow freely, became frightened, and started off on tho run. He crossed the river, and went immediately to the house of an uncle in New port, where he fell down exhausted, and fainted. When he recovered, he related what had taken place, and was advised oy Lis aunt to return aud have the unfortunSite affair investigated.— Ho concluded to do so, and was on his way back when met by the officers. He was over whelmed with grief when be learned that his little playfellow was dead, and protested that he was only playing with him when the fatal shot was given. <• Ths Beecher Family.— The family of Rev. Dr. Lyman Beecher, residing in different parts of the country, came together during the early part of this week, at the house of Rev. Henry W. Beecher, in Brooklyn, for a family reunion and visit to their father, who has now reached the 84th year of his age. All the children were present except Janies, who is now in Hong Kong Their names, in the order of their ages, are as follows: Miss Catharine Beecher, of Hartford; Rev. William Henry Beecher, of North Brook field, Mass.; Rev. Dr. Edward Beecher, of Galesburg, 111.: Mrs. Mary F. Perkins, of Hart ford, Ct.; Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe, of An dover, Mass.; Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, of Brooklyn; Rev. Charles Beecher, of Georgetown, Muss.; Mrs. Isabella Hooker, of Hartford, Ct.; Rev. Thomas K. Beecher, of Elmira, N. x. — The absent eon, Rev. James C. Beecher, is the youngest of the children. So largo a .family gathering, occurring at a period after the young est has reached the prime cf life, the original circle at the same time remaining so unbroken, is seldom witnessed in any family. The health of Dr. Beecher is'still good.— lndependent. A New “ Hoop” Disease.— A new disease has made its appearance sjnee. the introduction of hoops. It exhibits itself only in cold weather, ..and then is only discoverable in cities where the buildings are warmed with furnaces. Twro ltdies were standing over a register the other day, talk ing and laughing, when one endeavored to sit, was suddenly attacked and- screamed violently. The other soon also tried to sit, and was-attack ed 5a the same manner. The explanation is that standing so long over the register, their metalio hoops )>cci»m9 heated to such a degree that when they attempted to be seated, it was like sitting on a hot gridiron. Of course they were not a great length of time in getting up again, and naturally uttered screams—all of which would be very mysterious to a looker on, unacquainted ?rith the mysteries of hpojpt. Distressing Accident.t— On Tuesday night last, we are informed, the house of Ur. Epoch Beese, of Cambria county, some six miles on &is side of Ebensburg, on the' turnpike, was horned to the' ground, and a young man in it. We did not learn his name, but were Informed tbat was a stranger, who was moring, and bed stopped there for the night. The fire originated from some ashes, which had been placed in a barrel outside of thehouse, and having fire in them caused the accident. The house: was a fiwna one and everything was lost; the inmates that did escape haying barely Urn# to do so. " v '’• A young nran named George W.
