Jack listened with much. interest, .-and at once proposed to Richard to help him to pick the - pocket of an old gentlemen, who was staring intoa window on the opposite side of the street.

It was customary some years ago in many of the inland towns of New England, to cele kate the Anniversary of American Indepen dence; by, a sham fight, intended to represent some of the-Revolutionary battles, and of - course—victories ; one portion of the town people representing the* Red Coats, and an. other.the Federal forces. Below, we give-the rich end of an aceount; which we find in an exchange, of one celebration. A little town had resolved to perform the surrender of Corn wallis. Deacon Moses Jones, a wealthy, proud farmer, was chosen to enact Washing ton. and Squire Bigler. Wood, au aristocratic - Lawyer, to represent Cornwallis. but let the writer tell his own story r - The two-companies wpre to meet in front of the tavein oti the common, exchange shots ; skirmish a little.,in which Cornwallis was to be most essentially whipped, and then most ingloriously surrender. * At nine o'clock the two companies march; ed into the village and arrayed themselves in to fighting positions, reminding the spectator • f the time when • Maio Wolf drew Trio his Men In style most pretty, On the plaini of Abraham, Before theeity. The-two commanders were greatly excited andAVaskington, I regret {o say, was in any thing but a- fit condition to sok out, the great part he-was to peiforrn. He had been drinking treely all the morn ing, and now, when the interesting ceremony was . about to commence, was so tight, or .ra ther loose, that it was with great difficulty that he could sit on his saddle ; he, however, did not know but what he was all right, nor did his men. • Cornwallis was not infoxtcated, but he was a little agitated, or rather elated. Everything being ready, the companies ex changed shots. Bang ! whang I bang ! went the guns while the two commanders yelled like stuck pigs: . That's it, (hie) my brave boys ; give it to them, the o7dacibus Red Coats r--bellosted Washington. • ' On Romans-!''yelled the excited Cornwal lis who had seen a theatrical exhibition Once' and remembered the heroic appeals of the Thespian belligerants—' breathes there .a man, so dead that wont fight like thunder I' Go it Continentals! Down with taxation on tear bellowed Washington in a very pa triotic voice, - and narrowly escaping cutting. the horses ear off with the flourish• of his sword. The frghtinp now ceased,.. the companies were drawn up in a etraight line, and Corn wallis dismounted and presented his siecird to Washington. ' Well old boy nadir the imihortal, as lie culled : his horse's ears with hisleocked - hat, what in thunderdo you want *ith me i General Washington' replied Cornwal lis, I surrender to you myself, sw.ot.d and men' " • 'Yon do, do yota I' sneeringly replied the General. f Yes, General; the British Lion prostrates himself at the foot of the American Eagle.' ' Eagle !

So the day that commenced so glorious, ended in. gloriously.' e" • For many years after there was a coolness between the Deacon and the Squire-; but as the time rolled on, and their locks became frosted pith white, they leapi , ed to call it -a joke., • Both are now living, and ` • whenever they meet, they smoke and talk about ' that ar, ' like a couple, of good jolly old men, u they STrntiouriass.—On the Reading turnpike, just this side of St George's Brewery,, within the corporate 'limits, there is a very bad spo in the road.' FOr some distance there is just room enough for a wagon to pass over. Go either side of that and you plunge into holes. -Abiut six, o'clock a few evenings since, a stone wagon and a buggy going in opposite directions, meet is this part of the road. "Turn off," said the owner of the buggy. "I won't do it," replied the stone hauler. "My wagon is heavily loaded, and if I was to get the vehicle in those holes I could nevei gat it out.!" • "Your wagon is stout arid can stand the rubs," -said the Than in' the buggy. -"Drive out of the way, and let me pass." "I won't do it," responded the' teamster; "I shall wait until you go by.l-. • "So shall I," said the man in the buggy. The dispute by this time had arrested quite a crowd, who were much amased at the stub borners ot the two. The teamster was invited to the beer house to take a drink, and accep ted the invitation; the owner of the buggy was befriended with a newspaper, and throw ing himself back, endeavored to beguile away the boars pleasantly — as_ possible. Both de clared their determination not to drive off the smooth part of the ioa4. Seven o'clock came and both vehicles were still there. The teamster had , drank several glasses cf beer, and the 'occupant of the buggy had devoured the contents of two or three newspapers. Eight o'clock came, and they were in .the same position, as 'stubborn as ever. The teamster, however, grew impatient; his homes were,tired and hungry, yet he not wish to knock under. Ile proceded . to the road, unhitched his horses, and rode home, leaving his wagon in the road. The owner of,the buggy Was completely outg,enernled ; he had to give way or remain in the road all night.. Giving the, teamster a good hearty curse, he drove his buggy over the hazardous part of the road and started homward, a very made individuil.—Cin. Com. 'GETTING OVER 411. DIFFICULTTA clasa which graduated not - over a thousand years ago embraced among its members one Tom Elliott, an incorrigible wag,- whe was not no ted for any particular and marked attention to his studies.

CONSUMPTION, and all diseases of tthe LUNGS &TIIROAT are positively curable by INHALATION, which conveys thu remedies to the cavities In the lungs throughthe air passe ges, and corning indirect contact with the disease' neutralizes the tubercularoatter,allays the cough ! causes a free and easy expectoration, heals the lungs, purifies the blood,impartarenewed vitality to the nervous system, giving that energy so . indispensable for the restoration of the health. To be able-to state confidently that Consumption: is curable_by Inhalation, is to me a source of nn alloyed-pleasure. It is as much under the control of medical treatment as any other formidable dis ease; 90 out of 100 cases can be cured in the Ist stages, and 50 pr et. in the 2nd: but in the 3rd stage it is impossible to sav6more than 5 pr at., for the lungs are so cut up by-the disease as to bid defiance to medical skill. Even, however, in the ImA - stages, INHALATION affords relief to the suffering attending this fearfe I scourge, which annually destroys 95,000 persons in theU.S.alone and a correct calculation shows that of the present population of the earth, 80,000,000 are destined to fill the consumptive's graves. • Truly the quiver of death has no arrow so fa tal as Consumption. In- all ages it has been the great enemy of life, for it spares neither ago-nor sex, but sweeps off alike the brave the beautiful, graceful and gifted. By the help of the So: preme Being from whom comettr,every good and perfect gift, I am enabled to offer to the afflicted a permanent and speedy cure in Consumption. The first cause of tubercles is from impure blood , and the immediate effect produced by their dep osition in the lungs is to prevent the free admis sion of air into the air cells,which causes a weaki ened vitality thro' the entire_system. Then sure ly it is more rational to expect greater good from medicines entering the cavities of the lungs than from those administered through the stomach; the patient will always find the lungs free and the breathing easy, after inhalik„ ,, , the remedies. Thus, Inhalation is a local remedy, nevertheless it acts constitutionally,and with more power and certainty than remediesadministered through the ° stomach. To prove the powerful and direct influence of this ¢rode of administration, chloro form inhaled will entirely destroy sensibility in a few minutes, paralyzing the entire nArvnus-sys tim, so that a limb may be amputated - without the sfightescpain; inhaling the ordinary burning gas will destroy life in a few hours. The inhalation of ammonia will arouse the sys, tern when fainting or apparently dead. The od or of many of the medicines is perceptible in the skin a few minutes after being inhaled, and may be immediately detected in the blood, A convin cing proof of the constitutional effects of inhala Lion, is the fact that sickness is always produced by breathing foul air—is not this positive evidence that proper remedies, carefully prepared and ju diciously administered through the lungs should produce the happiest result? During 18 years practice, many thousands suffering, from diseases or the lungs and throat, have been under my care and I have effected many-remarkable cures, even after the sufferers had been pronounced in_ the last stages, which fully satisfies me that Con swiription itt no longer a fatal disease. My treat merit of consumption is original, and founded' on long experience and a thorough investigation. My perfect acquaintance with the nature of tu bercles, etc., enables me to distinguish, readily, the various forms of disease that simulate Con so,reption, and apply the proper remedies, rarely being mistaken oven hi a single case. This fam ifiarity, in connection with certain Patholefdeal and microscopic discoveries, enables me to relieve the lungs from the effects of contracted chests, to enlarge the chest, purify the blood, impart to it renewed vitality, giving energy and lone t e a the entire system. Medicines with full direkions sent to any part of the United Statesand Canadas, by patients communicating their symytoms by letter. , But the cure would be 'tore certain if the patient should pay me a visit, which would give me an opportunity to examine the hings and enable me to prescribe with Dinah greater certainty, and then the cure could be effected without my see. ing the patient again.

It matters not from what cause the disease originated, how ever long standing or obstinate the case, ny.cov- ERY iS CERTAIN, and in A shorter tie° than a permanent cure can be effected by any other treatment, even after the disease has baffled the skill of eminent physicians and resisted all their means of cure. The mdicinos are pleasant with out odor, causing no sickness, and free froth mercury or balsam. During 20 years of practice I havorescued fromthe jaws of Death many then sands, who in BO last stages of the abote men tioned diseases had been given up to die by their physicians, which warrants me in promising to the afflicted, 'who place_ themselves under my care, a perfect and most speedy cure. Secret dis eases aro the greatest- °flanks to health, _as they are the first -cause of Consumption,Scrofula, and - many othetdiseases, and ought to be a terror to the human family. As a permanent cure is scarcely ever effec ed, a majority of the cases fal ling into the hands of incompetent persons, who not only fail to cure, the diseases, but, ruin the constitution", filling the system with mercury, which,with the disease, hastens the sufferer into a rapid consumption. But should the disease and the; treatment not cause death speedily, and the victim marries, the disease is entailed upon the children, who .aro born with feeble constitutions, and the current of life corrupted by a virus which betrays itself in Scrofula, Totter, Ulcers, Eruptions, and other of fections of the skin, Eyes, Throat and Lungs, en tailing upon them a brief existence of suffering and consigning them to an early grave. SELF ABUSE, is another formidable_ene my to health, for nothing else in the dread cata logno of human diseases causes so destructit;e a drain upon the system,draing its thousands of victims through a few years of suffering down,to an untimely grave. It destroys the Nervous sys tem, rapidly-wastes away the energies of life, causes mental derangement, prevents' the proper developementof the system, disqualifies for mar riage, society, business, and all earthly happiness, and leaves the sufferer wrecked in body and mind, predisposed to' consumption and a train of Oils more to-be dreaded than death itself. With the fullest confidence I assure -the unfortunate vic tims of Self A base that a permanent and speedy Cure can be effected, and witibthe ahan donment of ruinous practices my patients can be restored to robust, vigorous health. The afflicted are cautioned against the use of Patent Medicines, for there are so many ingen= ions snares in the columns of #le public prints to catch and rob the unwary s i nfrerers, that millons have their constitutions raped by the vile com pounds of quack doctors, or the-equally poison ons.nostromsvended as "Patent Medicines."
