against the sale of impure and fraudulent liquors, with
the appointment of an Inspector in every town, would do

That's it. Protect us from flux vomica and rotten potato

°GRIM DISCOVELY.—A copper kettle has been found
seventeen feet below the surface, near Altana, 111., im
bedded in a vein of coal. It was found on Buffalo Rock,
on the Illinois river. Some think it was brought there
by some of the early French Missionaries, over 200 years
.ago; others give it a much earlier date. All ask, how it
could come into a solid bed of coal? None can answer.

An improvement, said to be of value, has been adopted
in the manufacture of candles, which has for its object the
hardening of the outside or surface. titearic acid is mixed
with; five per cent. of white wax, and then dissolved in
half their weight of methylated spirits of wine. By rapid

drawing them, they will be covered with a hard film, and
may be immediately handled.

A fellow having been "sworn to the truth" of a
Btatmenthelhad made, afterwards confessed that the major
part of it was false. "Did ye not swear to the truth of it?"
he was asked .—"Yes, "he replied; •but .1 did not swear to

M A largo portion of the swamps of Florida. is said to
be capable of producing 500 bushels of frogs to the acre,

Itra,. Some two weeks since, a stranger was seized with
an attack of -inaniapotu, while pausing along one of the
streets in Middletown, Pa., only two months having elapsed
since he commenced the career of a drunkard. The opin-
ion is that the strychnine and other deadly poison which
the liquor dealers of the present (lay aro using so freely,
will effect a revolution in the detestable traffic one way or
the ether, it will either kill all who drink it, or scare them
into reformation.

ABOUT TOWN LAST WEEK—A number of "poor, innocent
boatmen, 'who never harm anybody," if they are to ho be
lieved. They are "blessings in disguise," we suppose.
A SMART OLD MAN.—Mr. George Prough, of Trough Creek,
aged 83 years, gathered and shocked 72 dozen of wheat
and rye in one day, week before last. That beats us a few
dozen.
"FORTUNE TELLING.—In the advance copy of the "Penn
sylvania Magazine," received by us, there is a most excel
lent article upon the subject of Fortune Telling, by our
fellow-citizen, A. W. BENrancr, Esq. We have ever held
a mortal hatred against all fortune tellers, or at least that
foolish and pernicious practice, but the article in question,
has wrought a complete revolution in our mind. We are
a convert—a believer in fortune telling, and have full and
entire confidence in Mr. B. as a studied and scientific prac
titioner. Consult the article, and maybe you will find
yourself described, and your future told with unerring
certainty.

on the road another new and handsome Car, for passen

A SOLIS' RIPE.--We had a "jolly ride" on Saturday last,
from Broad Top City to Saxton, a distance of nine or ten
miles, in a passenger car in charge of Alr."Sam" Graybill,
the gentlemanly conductor on that branch of the road,
without the aid of steam or other power. Broad Top is
a great country—all who have not been there, should make
it convenient to enjoy a pleasure trip to the City Hotel
the present month.
A "rem" Pie isac.—On Saturday last, we had an invita
tion to a pie nic on Broad Top, after the party had appro
priated to their own use all the eatables they could beg in
the neighborhood. But having previously taken in a sup
ply of "wood and water" at the City Hotel, we did not at
all feel uncomfortable by being disappointed in partaking
of their supply, which consisted of one loaf of bread, six
cakes, butter, four pickles and creek water. Not hard to
take on an empty stomach on too mountain, if out of
hearing of the Broad Top City Hotel dinner bell.

THS CROPS IN Oruo.—Ohio appears to have done well
this season. In addition to the fine crops of wheat, and a
good promise of corn, the minor crops also give a large
yield. The barley is harvested, the oats promises very well
and the potatoes are quite large. The Cincinnati Gazette
estimates the yield as follows: Oats, 20,000,000 bushels;
Rye, 1,000,000 dot Barley, 500,000 do.; Potatoes, 6,500,000

English Wealth and Luxuriousness.
Some of our New York Fifth avenue swells
make very respectable attempts to do the
" palatial" in their houses, and style of liv
ing, and put forth ambitious efforts to imi
tate English country seats, in the possession
of what English would call a "snug box"on
the Hudson River, and ten, twenty, or a hun
dred acres. An account, before us, of the
luxurious style of living among the English
aristocracy, throws our parvenu pretenders
considerably into the shade:
About sixty miles from London, is the
estate of the Earl of Spencer, which compri
ses ten thousand acres, divided into parks,
meadows, pastures, woods, and gardens.—
His library contains fifty thousand volumes,
and is said to be the finest private library in
the world. The Duke of Richmond's home
farm consists of twenty-three thousand acres,
or over thirty-five square miles, and this in
crowded England, which has in all, an area
of only 50,000 square miles, or just 32 mil
lions of acres, giving, were the land divided,
but two acres to each inhabitant. The resi
dence of the Duke is fitted up with oriental
magnificence. Twenty-five race horses stand
in his stables, each under the care of a spe
cial groom. The dishes and plate upon the
table, are all of porcelain, silver and gold.—
His aviary is supplied with almost every va
riety of rare and elegant birds, and large
herds of cattle, sheep and deer, are spread
over the immense lawns.
The same authority from which we gather
these facts, says that the Duke of Devon
shire's palace, at Chatsworth, excels in mag
nificence, any other of the kingdom. Ile
spends the whole of his enormous _income,—
In the grounds about the house, are kept four
hundred head . of cattle, and fourteen hun
dred deer. The kitchen garden contains
twelve acres, and is filled with almost every
species of fruit and vegetables. A vast ar
16r.siv »i connected with his establishment, is
designed to contain a sample of every tree
that grows. There is also a glass conserva
tory, 387 feet in length, 112 feet in breadth,
67 feet in height, covered with 76,000 square
feet of glass, and warmed by several miles of
pipe, conveying hot water. One plant was
obtained from India, by a special messenger,
and is valued at $lO,OOO. One of the foun
tains, near the house, plays 267 feet high,
said to be the highest jet in the world.—
Chatsworth contains 3,500 acres, but the
Duke owns ninety-six thousand acres in the
county of Derbyshire. Within, the entire is
one vast scene cf paintings, sculpture, mosaic
work, carved wainscotting, and all the die
gancies and luxuries within the reach of al
most boundless wealth and highly refined
taste.
Five-sixths of the soil in England is divided
among scarcely thirty thousand proprietors.
There are twenty-nine bankers in London,
whose transactions yearly embrace six or sev
en hundred millions sterling. This is one
side of the picture. The struggles between
capitol and labor are fearful—the rich al
ways becoming richer, and the poor poorer.
Three hundred thousand persons die of fam
ine in a year, (?) and three hundred thous
and voluntarily emigrate, to escape the same
dismal doom.—Dichmond Dispatch.

Late Decisions of the State Superinten-
School Architecture: New districts will be
furnished with a copy of the Architecture;
but not old districts which have already been
supplied, unless for satisfactory reasons.—
When the retiring Secretary of the Board has
appropriated the Architecture to his own use,
and refuses to return it, the Board should
bring suit against him to recover it, or its val
ue. He would also be liable to indictment
for larceny. The book is the property of the
district, and not of the Secretary, or any oth
er member of the Board.
Occupation Tax: The increase in the
amount of the tax on trades, occupations and
professions, and on single freemen, was oc
casioned by the almost entire escape of this
tax heretoibre, by large numbers of persons
whose children were enjoying the advantages
of the public schools, and were fully able to
bear a fair share of the expense. in all cas
es of hardship on account of the indigence of
the taxpayer, the proper course for the direc
tors will be to exonerate the tax in meritori
ous bonafide cases, of which they must be the
judge, under the 31st section of the law of
1854.
School Law and Decisions: A new edi
tion of the pamphlet copy of the "School law
and decisions," is in press, containing all the
recent enactments, and the decisions made
since the last edition was printed, and will
be issued and distributed in the course of the
summer.
State Report: Boxes containing a limited
number of the State Superintendent's last an
nual report and appendix have been sent to
County Superintendents, for miscellaneous
distribution. Teachers and others, desiring
copies, should apply in person, or send for
them, in order to relieve Superintendents as
much as possible from the transportation of
such bulky documents. Three copies were
sent by mail to each board of directors, dur
ing the winter, by members of the Legisla
ture. Leading friends of education, and in
telligent, public spirited teachers who feel
an interest in their profession, have the first
claim upon those now sent out.

CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GLOBE.
BROAD TOP, August 1, 1857.
MR. EDITOR :—Allow me to make a remark
about miners and mining operations on Broad
Top. Since the coal works started there have
been not a few adventurous speculators who
have represented themselves as Practical Mi
ners, Engineers and Geologists. But out of
charity, I would excuse their presumption,
and say that they came here to speculate, and
maybe to learn. Aman may be smart enough
in the business in which he has been educa
ted, but it does not follow that every Tom,
Dick and Harry, who can readily distinguish
between an Act of Assembly and a pile of
coal, is a Practical Miner, Engineer and Ge
ologist ; and it would be well for such pre
tenders to desist in their criticisms, and con
demnations of the work and mining opera
tions of those who have devoted their lives to
the business and understand it well, or else
they may run again a rock and further expose
their ignorance!
It would be well for all proprietors of coal
mines to consult their interests and secure
the services of practical miners. Perhaps
science is better than speculation; and will
produce a larger yield of coal with less ex
pense.
My life has been devoted to the mining bu
siness, and I am sure there will be no "spec
ulation" by certain ones as to the reason why
I say that there is not a more correct Miner
or Geologist on Broad Top than LESLIE of
Philadelphia. J. A. IL
A GIRL GONE MAD Pox LOVE,—A. beautiful
German girl named Hannah Rootker, was
taken to the Commercial Hospital, yesterday
morning, a raving maniac—her reason com
pletely overthrown by disappointment in
love. - It seems that she had been engaged
to one of her countrymen for some months,
and had fully expected to become his wife,
when her father informed her last Saturday
that she should not marry.
Upon this announcement she fell, as if
struck by lightning, to the floor, and it was
with much difficulty she was restored to con
sciousness. She then began raving fright
fully, and with cries and screams and tears
and lamentations, startled the entire neigh
borhood of Bremen street, where she resided.
Nothing could be done to appease her—she
grew worse and worse, until it was deter
mined to remove her to the Hospital.
When there, she continued to rave, and
would have died from exhaustion before this,
had not chloroform been administered to
keep her quiet. It was found necessary, too,
to bind her to the floor, else she would have
her own life, leaped out of the window, or
done anything desperate. The physicians
who saw her say they never before beheld so
violent a maniac.
It is pitiable to observe this young and
beautiful woman, just in the spring of life,
suffering--and how intensely she must suffer
all the horrors of madness, because of a
generous and absorbing passion which might
and should have made her happiness on
earth.
She will be sent to-day to the Lick Run
Lunatic Asylum.—Cincinnati Gazette, 27th
inst.
PREVENTION' OF HYDROPHOBIA. A Saxon
ranger, now 82 years old, and not willing to
take the secret to his grave, publishes the
following remedy for the bite of mad dogs,
which be successfully applied to man and
beast during 25 years. The wound must
immediately be washed out with warm vin
egar or lukewarm water, and wiped dry ;
after which pour a few drops of mineral nm
riatic acid into the wound, mineral acid dis
solving the poisonous foam, and so prevent
ing the sad effect. Where no muriatic acid
can be had, the wound in the meantime must
be washed out with a strong solution of salt
water, and the acid procured directly.

of Warrior's Mark Seminary, NVO find the following pa
thetic lines to the memory of Ileum M. NEFF, son of Dr.
11. li. & Mary M. Neff, and by request publish the same:
LITTLE HARRY.
LITTLE Maar was one of nature's noblemen in minia
ture. His sparkling, deeply penetrating eye, his elastic
step, his peculiar neeVous temperament, his tenacious
memory, his extraordinary analytical powers, his ability
to trace cause to effect, and to attribute effect to cause, his
profound and apposite questions when investigating any
subject. all proclaimed him an intellectual prodigy.
His versatility of genius and suavity of manners, made
him a universal favorite. Had he lived to maturity. his
energy of character and intellectual worth, would have in
sured him a conspicuous part in the great drama of life.—
lint Little Harry was not permitted to appear upon the
stage of mortal strife. A wise and benevolent Father saw
lit to take him home to the skies.
His rising sun melted away into the mellow light of
Heaven, like a star hiding itself in the resplendent glories
of the eye of day.
"Ile died in beauty! like a rose
Blown from its parent stem;
Ile died in beauty! like a pearl
Dropped from a diadem"
Ile was a plant too pure and too lovely for earth's poison
ous vale. lie was a bud ton feeder for earth's shady dell.
Ile was a flower too exquisite fiir the grosser light of the
material sun : therefore ho was transplanted into the richer
soil of Paradise, there to be nurtured by the fostering care
of a blessed Redeemer.
..pgro will ho bud and blossom,
and bloom as the rose, under the genial rays of the " Sun
of Righteousness." We mourn the loss of our dear little
school-mate; his innocent laugh and musical voice aro no
more heard in our midst; his seat in the family circle is
vacant, and his toys have passed into the hands of another.
Though he lives not on earth, yet wo rejoice to know that
"lie lives in glory! like night's gems
Set round the silver moon ;
Ile lives in glory! like the sun
Amid the blue of June."

Death has claimed our little Willie—
Set his seal upon his brow,
And his cheeks that were liko roses,
Are as pale as marble now.
We have closed his eye-lids gently,
On the dim and glassy eyes,
For the soul that gave them brightness,
.Now has Red beyond the bkies.
A light is from our household gone;
A voice we loved is stilled ;
A place is vacant at our hearth,
Which never can be filled.
Death has been his early lot,
To ease him of his pain,
Yet ne'er by us shall be forgot,
That sweet and loving name.
Yes, he's gone to dwell in Heaven—
Little Willie, loved and dear,
And we shall not behold him,
Till we go to meet him there.
Weep not for him, mother, aunts and uncles dear,
For ho is not dead, hut sleeping here;
Prepare for death, for die you must,
And with your Willie, sleep in dust.

Dr. Hardman treats Consumption, Bronchitis, Asthma,
Larryngittis and all diseases of the throat and liings,,,by
Medical Inhalation, lately used in the Bromton Hospila
London. The great point in the treatment of all human
maladies, is to get at the disease in the direct manner.—
All medicines are estimated by their action upon the organ
requiring relief. This is the important fact upon which
Inhalation is based. If the stomach is diseased we take
medicine directly into the stomach. if the lungs are dis
eased, breathe or inhale medicated vapors directly into
the lungs. Medicines arc antidotes to disease and should
be applied to the very scat of disease. Inhalation is the
application of this principle to the treatment of the lungs,,
for it gives us direct access to those intricate air cells, and
tubes which lie out of reach of every other means of ad
ministering medicines. The reason that Consumption,
and other diseases of the lungs, have heretofore resiste.l
all treatment has been because they have never been ap
proached in a direct manner by medicine. They were in
tended to act upon the lungs, and yet were applied to the
stomach. Their action was intended to be local, and yet;
they were so administered that they should only act con
stitutionally, expending their immediate and principal ac
tion upon the unoffending stomach, whilst the foul ulcers
within the lungs were unmolested. Inhalation brings
the medicine in direct contact with the disease without
the disadvantage of any violent action. Its application is
so simple, that it can be employed by the youngest infant
or feeblest invalid. It does not derange the stomach, or in
terfere in the least degree with the strength, comfort, or
business of the patient.
Other Diseases Treated.—Tn relation to the following dis
eases, either when complicated with lung Affections or cr. ,
:
isting alone, I also invite consultation, I usually find them
promptly curable.
Prolapsns and all other forms of Female Complidnfs,
regularities and Weaknesg.
Palpitation and all other forms of Heart Disease. Liver
Complaints, Dyspepsia, and all other diseases of stomach
and bowels, &e.
All diseases of the eye and ear. Neuralgia, Epilepsy,
and all forms of nervous disease.
