You hare Front street .and the. railroad to cross, in the first place; but that is one of the draw-backs of your location, and you look to your footing and sec high accordingly. When you laud safely on the pavement, however, yeti may reasonably suppose that your road is clear, and no more than the ordinary care neces sary. What a mistake! 'You scarcely get fifty feet from the corner of Front in LocVst street, north side, before your plain sailing is over, and you are in the breakers. An abyss yawns before you, lined at the bottom with sand or mud, according to the weather, and a debris of brick-bats, chips, straw, shreds, patches, and the accumulated sweep ings of the streets. You have a narrow— very narrow—ledge of solid pavement on either side, ;old by careful navigation may get over unharmed, but grief awaits you it you lift your eyes from your path, This peril bllrllloUntod, comes the unfla,gged crossing of Locust street. With tho excep tion of the crossing at Front street, and sev• oral crossings laid down by private enter prise, there is not a single stone crossing until you reach the upper side of Third street You of course cross at Second street, in mud . in wet, and dust in dry weather. here you have a kat ful chasm in the pavement, just as you Teach the first alley south of Locust The bricks are uprooted from around the stump of a tree, and of a dark night. if your thoughts ate not nu your loot. steps you stand a fair clutuce of immersion ul—possibly a pool of water or 11 slough.

Used only fsir the convenience of a.t entrance from Second street, and not at all to pass water, every drop of which is conveyed by the gutter to the main alloy further on, there exists no necessity for this crossing t b be below the level of the adjoining, pa vent en ts, still less neces•ity that it should be paved with the execrable and happily superseded cobble stone, and least of all that it should descend Isom the four points of the compass towards the centre, forming a basin in which accu• mulates the abominations of all times and weathers; and through II 114:11, you, 0, my editor, aro compelled daily to vade.

MODERN INVENTIONS We know of no invention of modern times that deserves or is Destined to occupy a higher niche in the temple of fame, than the discovery or invention of the Vegetable Epiletic Pills fur curing Epilepsy, or Falling Fits, Spasms, C ra mps, and all the various modifications of Nervous Disease. Dr. Seth S. Hance, of 109 Baltimore street, Baltimore. Ald., the inven tor, is certainly entitled to the best wishes of all the benevolent portion of mankind, who experience a pleasure by the alleviation of hu man suffering. When Dr. Hance first pre pared these Pills, he intended them solely for Fits, Cramps arid Spasms; but subsequent eX parance satisfactorily ;moved to him that in addition to their remarkable sanative proper ties in ibis class of dis,ases, they exerted a perfect control over the entire nervous system He was then induced to try them in cases of Neuralgia, Tic-Doloreux, Nervous Headache, Palpitation of the Heart, Incipient Paralysis, Hysteria, Muscular Debility, and a host of minor diseases, springing from a lack of ner vous energy, in all of which his anticipations were crowned with the most sanguine success Persons at a distance, by writing, and sending a ',mutant* to Dr. Hance, can have the med icine forwerded by mail to their post office ad dress, he paying Inc postage. The prices are far a single bot, $l, two boxes; SA, or s2.lper dozen. We h ive given his address above. FARRF.L HERRING & Co's. PATENT CHAMPION SAFE.
