PENALTIES.
The Penalty of buying cheap clothes., is
the same as that of going to law—the cer•
tainty of losing your suit and having to pay
for it.
The penalty of marrying is a mother-in
law.
The penalty of remaining single, is hay.
ing no one " who cares a button" for you,
as is abundantly proved by the state of your
shirt.
The penalty of thin shoes, is a cold.
The penalty of a pretty cook, is an empty
larder.
The penalty of stopping in Paris, is being
shot.
The penalty'of tight boots is corns
The penalty of having a haunch of veni
son,sent to you, is inviting a dozen friends
to come and eat it.
The penalty of popularity, is envy.
The penalty of a baby, is sleepless nights.
The penalty of interfering bettireen man
wife, is abuse, frequently accompitnied with
blows horn both.
The penalty of a godfather, is a silver
knife, fork and spoon.
The penalty of kissing a baby, is hafra
crown (five shillings, it you are liberal,) to
the nurse._
The penalty of a public, dinner, is bad
Wine.
- The penalty of a legacy, of a fortune, is
the sudden discovery 'of a host of-poor rela
tions you never dreamt ot, a number of
debts you had quite forgotten.
The penalty of lending, is—with a book
or an umbrella, the certain loss of it ; with
your name to a bill, the sure payment of it;
and with a horse, the lamest chance of ever
seeing him back again sound.—Punch.
A CHARACTER.
Old " Bumblebee ".Was the cognomen of
Mr. T., of Newburyport ; i he gained the title
from the fact of his catching a bumblebee,
one day, as he was shingling his barn, and
in attempting
,to decapitate the insect with
his hatchetv cut off the end of his thumb and
fore-finger, letting the bee go unharmed.—
Other mishaps happened to the old codger
upon that same old barn. In one of . his ab
atractions he shingled over his spare hatchet ;
and cutting an aperture in the building to
let in a little daylight, this man actually in
serted a wooden pane, as being economical
and not liable to be broken !
Uncle T., in one of his obvious freaks,
4, ailed his left arm so firmly between two
rds of a fence he was putting up, that he
had to call for help to get extricated from
his self-imprisonment. lie once put a but
ton on the gate instead of the post. But the
rarest freak of all was When he ran through
the streets with his hands about three feet
asunder, held-up before him, begging the
passers-by not to disturb him, as he had got
the measure of, a dtior-way with him!
PRECOCIOUS.
In one of our city.schools, not many year;
ago,.a member of the committee asked the
members of a class that was under mini-
nation—
"What was the : eause of the saltness of
the ocean ?"
Soon one little girl raised herland, flushed
with the discovery which had flashed :upon
her mind.
"You may tell," said the committee man.
"Salt fish, air!" said the pupil. '
The committee matt immediately proceed
ed to the next class.
0 7. TRUTH VERIFIED.----A gentleman from
an Eastern city, was relating with "great
gusto" to a gaping crowd in a„country• bar
room,some of the wonderful Wills perform
ed "in town." The people were greatly
surprised, and rather inclined fo skepticism,
when he spoke of a brick building being ac
tually moved without injury, .from one
"foundation to another." A Yankee wit,
who had been " eyeing" the stranger rather
'suspiciously, replied—"lt is so! for I came
by the next day, and they Were moping the
cellar !"
USA POOR ENDORSER.-" A worthy but
. poor . minister," writes a friend from the
country, " requested a loan of fifty dollars
from the cashier of our bank ; and in the note
requesting the favor, he said that if thecashr
ier would oblige him he would pay him in
ten days on the faith of Abraham.' The
cashier returned word that by the
. rules of
the bank, the endorser of a note must reside
in the State." -
V' THE FOLLOWING inteiesting conversa
tion occurred a short time since between two
candidates for academic honors:
"Bill, spell cat, rat, hat, bat, fat, with
only one letter for each word." , _
"It can't be did," said Bill.
What ! you just ready to report verba
tim, phonetically, and can't do that ! Just
look here !—c 80 cat, r SO rat, h 811 bat, b 80
bat, f 80 Tat."
07 PROFESSOR HANNIBAL, in his last lec
ture published in ttie N. V. Picayune, in dis
counting on the cat fish, says :—" I don't noe
why he am called de cat fish,. unless it ani
bekase he am such a pusylanamous feller,
purrplonamous am catamount •to beitt' called
a ramtomas. One reason dey call him so
may be 'kase he am so sportive* an' kitten
like when he am out ob de water."
11:7Sur was asked what he thought of
the effects of hot drinks on the system?-1
" Rot dunks, sir," said he, " are decidedly
had. Tea and coffee, sir, are hurtful. "And
even hot punch, when it is very hot—very
hot indeed, and - taken often, and in , large
quantities, I suppose is slightly deleterious!"

`CORE FOR CANCER.
CV The Franklin (Tenn.) hemescsays that Mr.
George Bennett, of Williamson county, cured him
self of a cancer on the nose, with which - he had
suffered intensely for years, by the following sim
ple , process : -
He procured about , a peck of clean red oak bark,
y first cutting oft the rough outside, and put it into a
'teasel containing about two gallons of water which
he boiled over a slow fire till the ooze beaunequite
strong, when he strained it through a cloth to re
move all the particles of the bark. Then lie again
put it into a clean vessel and simmered it over a
Slow fire , till it came to the consistency of molasses,
when it is fit for use. It is then spread :upon a
piece of silk, or other soft rag, and applied to the
diseased part. He used about two fresh Vasters
every week until the Cancerwas removed-and the
.wound healed., He. says it is not painful; but be
lieves it an infallible remedy.
CORNS ON THE FEET.
Corns are one of the greatest torments in civil.
zation. We would advise all to abjure com!pla_sters
and shields, which may give momentary ease, bat
add to the evil in the end. Pare the corns as closely
as you can with safety, and then ruh.in sweet oil ;
if between the toes introduce a small piece of cot.
ton. By this simple means they will, in „time, be,
completely eradicated. They are caused by friction
and the oil .16ftens the part, and eventually 'removes
them. We have known several pefsons to try this
plan with perfeet success. Loose boots or shoes
will rarely produce corns.
VALUABLE RECEIPT,

we have been the Salem agents, and also at one time
the county agents. for the sale of your valuable medi

tiware that, in any one instance, have the pills which
we have sold been complained sires causing injury, or
not accomplishing their proper mission. it is doubly
gratifying when we receive voluntary testimony from
a source where the medicine which is sold has been
the means ofiloing great good and ofeaving many lives.
Last year We sold three dozen bezel to go ton for

wonderful effbcts .which they did in curing a large
number of persons who were attacked with a prevail.

The following Is the letter alluded to above:—
, Cartscit, March 22, 1851.
Messrs. W; A. B. B. Ives. Merchants, Salem 7.
Genitemen—Por some years past I have adopted in
my family, sea purgative, Dr. Wright's Indian Vege
table Pill. (for whom you are his agents in Salem)
and have forted that medicine of great worth.
Last Noverither we were visited by a kind of inflam
matory fever' (the same I presume which greatly af
flicted our neighbor., the Basilian', for nearly a year)
the symptonli of which had an analogy to the yellow
fever, and neatly three hundred persons fell victims to
the epidemic ;fa great number fora population a, small
as (asa Chtf doctors named It the true yellow fever,
but their skill was inefficient to stop its progress, con
fining their triode of treatment to the use of quinine,
and the application of leeches, forbidding the use of
purgatives, etid of course all the soldiers and sailors,
who were obliged to be sent to the Hospitals, as also
the Governed. several Magistrates, several officers,
and In feet ail those who were really afflicted with the
disease, fell victims under their mode of treatment.
A month ptevious.l had received there dozen KG, es
of Dr. Wrfgbt's Pills, which I presume were boeight
at your stare by Messrs. CoMiimith, Newcomb &
Parless,meribants In your city, and with whom I em
doing bumble... I had the opportunity to ;administer
these Pill. to several under my roof, who were afflict
ed with the same fever, and two doses of eight Pills
each completely eared them of the complaint. I then
gave away nearly all my Pills to some twenty lir thir
ty pause, and all were relieved as It were by en
chantment.
I have. In consequence, remitted to Messrs. Gold
smith, Newcomb sod Fatless, the senior forty dollar
em the outdate °Mal quantity Of this Needle ine, an
foreg of yore to deliver the Pills as fresh as possible.
I request you also to desire Dr. Wright to have his
directions translated in French.whiab will tend great
