He has said that the winter of that yeqp-was the coldest he ever experienced. Our troops, he has told us, shot squirrels and drew their skins over their feet for shoos. He was in the battle of Monmouth, June 28, 1774, under Wayne, and was with Wayne at the taking of Stouy Point, where the watchword was, “ Remember Paoli, brave boys.” He was With Lafayetie at the surrender of Corn wallis at Yoiktown, on the 19th of October, 1781, and, in bis own words, “in many more scrimmages that' be could not remember the particulars of.” This warrior left descendants to the fourth generation, and to the number of nearly three hundred. * He was a gunsmith by trade, and made a perfect gun when he was one hundred and seven years of age. During the last,summer be could read without spectacles.— When lie was over ninety he walked to Clear field and back, & distance of neaily thirty miles —and then back again, a distance jn all of nearly sixty miles, before dark, on one and the same day. We arc assured that be did not feel any the worse of this walk. He never missed a Presidential or Gubernatorial election since the very first. He always enjoyed good health until a short time previous to his death, when he begau to have weak spells, and was only bedfast 'from the Sabbath before he died. oeattb: of a S»i? 1 ; ' ,di«r.' - ; of the most singular wagers wo ever heard of, says the Buffalo Courier , was made in Chicago oa the day before the munici- | pal election in that city. The bet was between a Water street merchant and Ned Osborne of the j Tretnont House, the largest c gnr and tobacco ! dealer in the city, and was to the effect that if | Wentworth was not elected, Osborne should ■ have the privilege of kicking the Water street merchant aforesaid, from the Tremout House to Springer street. The day after the election, the merchant haring lost, came to Osborne’s store, hud presented his person to him fur the contemplate! kicks, and demanded that Osborne should take the stakes. Osborne had been training bis right leg all the previous dayj, and bad armed his foot with a heavy cowhide boot, with soles as thick as two clapboards. The merchant started up by the Tremont, Osborn delivering a heavy kick as be started, but drew back his foot with a spasmodic action and par oxysm of,countenance absolutely pitiful He tried another one, bat the looser flinched not, and he ke|pt on his way undisturbed by the vol ley he had received. The result of this was worse than the first, and he fairly curled up on the ground and howled with pain. The mer chant .stooped and calmly inquired: “Why don’t you take the stakes?” *• What have you got in ‘the basement of your pants cried Med.. •I Milwaukie bricks,” shouted the merchant. 11 and we ain't within a mile of Springer street yet.” Osborne subsided, paid the champagne, and has been wearing a list slipper ever since. Wiu, this Coal Fields Hold Got?— Some of the, scientific journals hare been discussing at various periods the question whether (he coal fields will hold out, considering the enor mous quantity consumed. Professor Rogers, after showing the areas and solid contents of thd vari ms known coal fields, estimates that, at the present rate of consumption, 100.0u0.000 per annum, the coni fields of Pennsylva nia alone would meet the demand for 3,164 years If the consumption were doubled, viz: 200.00i3.0b0 of tons, the great Appalachian field would meet the strain for 6.937 J years.— If it were quadrupled, viz: 400 OUO.OOO the productive coal fields of North America would suffice for the world’s supply for 10,000 years to come. It is mentioned as a fact that a panic was once created in Philadelphia, by the an nouncement that the workman had reached the bottom of the Mauch Chuuk coal Dine. The stock of the Lehigh Coal and Navigation Com pnjny-fjell twenty percent, and gloomy present ments filled the general mind. These appre hensions ware caused by ignorance of the nature of the coni formations, which, unlike other tninds, occur in strata or seams, and the hope of abundant supply lies in the extent rather than the thickness of these seams. Sacsiliuiocs Fun — On Saturday an adver tisement appeared in the Baltimore Sun, stating that oh Sabbath morning the administration of the ordinance pf Baptism would take plaice near the Belvidcro bridge, in that city. The hour (let forth was eleven o'clock, previous to wliicbi large numbers of men and women of all ages and conditions in life, were seen wending their 1 way to the designated spot. Several thousand persons had congregated, all waiting in nniioua expectation that the minister and the subjects would mak* their appearance.— Soon a whisper seemed to be given from ear to ear, that this was the first day ofWpril, or “ all fojois day.” It quickly, like an electric shock, pervaded the entire multitude, when carriages and-bprsenien, and those on foot, were seen, ip double quick time, departing for their homes.

Our 1 readers may remember We have on several occasions spoken in very eulogistic terms of a preparation which Dr. Seth 3. llancx, of IOS Baltimore street, Ud„ has discovered for the cure of Epileptic Fits.-, Now, in doing so, we have been actuated by tbp very best motives, viz:— tiio alleviation of human'suffering.! From circumstances which have lately come to our knowledge, wo fear there is a certain class of persons .who are not disposed to try this remedy in a common sense manner. We allude to the feet of selecting a particular case in a town where perhaps there are six or eigiil cases, and frying it one case.
