Tile Pluez Canal—What Is lit
The ;progress of the great work of - the
uez 1 Canal under the charge of M. de

public attention; and an intere sting
irvey of the enterprise, by E. Hepple
all, has just beenpnblisbed • the,illus

cts:
The Canal itself is a vast! ditch, one
,indred miles in length, three hundred
et, wide at the top, from one hundred to
aebundred and fifty feet wide at the
ittom,viith an average depth of twenty
ur feet, connecting,four natural flakes,
hich are situated at distances from ten
fifteen miles from escitother, and die,
lamina at either end into a great 'lila - ld

Stupendous \ difficulties attended the
ninstruction of the work, and threatened
make it, when finished, of no perms,-
I tett utility. I , Prominent among these
ere the sand storms of the desert, which
ould fill up the ditch, and deposits of the
ile, which would obstruct the entrance
ith bars. To \ avoid damage from the
.nd storms, grt barriers of sand fifty
et high have b6ettraised - on either side.

No locks are required along the line

Tan water of a cistern neat Nashville
;miring acquired a singular• flavor, some
of it was analyzed by two Young physi
clans 'who gave it as flies opinion that a
stream of pute chalybeite water had burst
through the' wills of the cistern, and
changed the taste of its contents. All the
satisfiedn that neighborhood were well
as to the decision, and continued
using it. Recently the cistern was
cleaned out, and the chalybeate was found
to come from dead, cats. The people have
not now as much' confidence as they had

ACCORDIRG•to the Paris Tamps, oa the
day when Victor Hago's new novel,
"L'Homme qui Rit," 'was published in
Paris, the following translations appeared:
Three, in English, viz : one in London,
one in Lepsic and the other in New York ;
one in German, at Berlin ; four in Span
ish, viz.: two in Madrid, one at Havana,
and one in Paris ; two in Portuguese,
viz.: one in Lisbon and the other at Rto
Janeiro ; one in Russian, at St. Peters
burgh ; one in Polish, at Warsaw ; one
in Dutch, at Rotterdam ; two in Greek,
viz.: one at Athens and the other at Con
stantinople :one in Hungarian, at Path;
one in Swedish, at Stockholm, and one
in the Czech language at Prague.
A 'nw test of the diamond, which may
be considered somewhat in the light of a
"kill-or-cure," consists in plied - lig the
stone to be tested in a platinum crucible,
with pulverized flour.sper, and :scarring
upon it concentrated sulphuric acid. it
is then to be heated for a time, until all
the fames evolved pass off, and the cruci4
ble is then allowed to cool; should the
stone be a real diamond it will be found
unaffected, whereas an imitation will dis
appear.entirely, or else be so corroded as
tote materially reduced in size. A better
test than thl4- however, consists in the
use at hydrofluoric acid itself, which,
when applied in the fbrm of a single drop
to the surface of the stone, will almost
immediately act upon an imitation, but
I will leave a true diamond untouched.
A eON, of William Collier, of Crab
Orchard, Kentucky, aged sixteen years,
was mowing a meadow with a common
t wo-horse mowing-machine, and on reach
ing a rather ragged point the , machine
came near turning over,' when, to save
hirnself,•the young man jumped, and un
fortunately: became entangled in ,the
sickle. The horses became frightened
and ran, horribly cutting and mangling
both the legs of he youth, and literally
s3vering both heela from the other portion
of the feet, leaving Wem in the shoes.
Several physicians were ; summoned, but
aMputation was not performed until over
&gilt hours after the injury was received.
Tee great loss of blood before amputation,
added to the shock of the injury and ope
ration, caused his death the same evening.
True is the way the big
. brick six story
hotel at Pelham in Bestows being moved,
to widen Boylston street. Eighteen trayerses have been constructed under the
building, each forming a tramway. • All
are equal to the best , foundation
Each of them is thus built: A trench is
dug from the foundation's-westward four
teen feet in length. The trench is filled
in its whole length with: immense blocks
of granite. On these a brick wall
is built of the strongest 'cement, two feet
wide, one or two feet high and fourteen
feet long. Along the top of this wall run
several rails an inch or two apart. 'These
rails are made of flat, thick iron. , From
under every one of the six walls that run
from Boylston street to" the back of the
building these taverns of stone, brick
and iron go fourteen feet westward in We
direction that the building is to go. The
building will roll on small iron rollers or
I round bars, which roll - on the flat iron
rails along the traverses.

;Tuesday, two miles south-east of West

SCHENCK'S ‘ POILMONIC
AND
MA..wriiiiVlEußas EA ZII cl 6 re' Consumption,
Liver Complaint and Dyspepala,,i th f taken accord
ing to directions . They are all ree to be taken
at the same time. They cleanse the stomacb, re
lax the liver and put it to work; then the appetite
becomes good; the fowl digests end makes good
blood; the patient begins to grow in flesh; the
diseased matter ripens into the lungs, and the
patient outgrows toe disease and gets well. This
is the only way to cure consumption. • •
To these three medicines Dr. J. IL Schenck, of
Philadelphia. owes his unrivaled success in the
treatment of pulmonary Consumption. - The Pal.
=onto Syrup ripens the morbid' matter in the
lungs, nature throws it off by au easy expectora
tion, for when the phieem, or matter IS ripe a
slight cough will throw it rig. and the patient has
rest and the lungs begin to heal. _
T., do this, the Seaweed 'Joule. and Mandrake,
Pills must be ireely used to cleanse the stomach
and liver. so that the Pulmonte Syrup and the
food will make good blood.
Schenck's Mandrake Pills set upon the liver, '
removing all obstructions. relax the ducts of the
gall bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver
Is soon relieved; the stools will show what the
Pills can do; nothing has ever been invented ex
cept calomel (a deadly poison wtich Is very dan
gerous to use unless with great care,) that will
unlock the gall bla dder and start the secretions
of the liver like tebenck"s Mandrake Pills.
Liver Complain is one of the most prominent
causes of Consumption.
Schenck's Seaweed Tonle is a gentle stimulant
and alterative. and the alkali In the Seaweed,
which this preparation is made 01. assists the
stomach to Pirow out the gastric juice to dissolve
the food with the Putmonle Syrup, and it is made
into good hood without fermentation or souring
in the stomach. ..
the great reason why physiclises do not cure
1 Consumption is, they try to do too much: they
give medicine to step the cough. to stop chills,to
stop night sweats, hectic fever and by so doing
they derange the whole digestive powers. lock
lug np thesecret.ons. and eventually the patient
sinks and dies. „ . , , , • . •
Dr. Schenek, in lets trestment, does not try
stopstop a cough, night sweats, chills or fever.• Ne
move the cause, and taey will all Mop - of . their
owe accord, No one can be cured of_Consump.,
tion, Liver CoMplaint,' DrPepsia, extant,

• If a person 'has consum p tion , of coarse me
nags in some way
_are diseased; Muter tubercles,
abcesses, bronchial Irritation. pleura adhesion.
or the lungs are a mass of Inflammation and fest
decaying. In such cases what must be done?' It
is not only the lungs ;nu are wasting: but it is
the whole body.,Tbe stomach and liver have lost
their power topake blood out of fo d. Now the
only chance is to tate Dr. ftehencr's three medi.
eines, which will bring op a tone to the stomach,
' the patient will begin to want food, itwill digest
easily and make good blood; then the patienCbe.
gins to gain in flesh. and as soon as the body be
gins to grow. the lungs commence to heal up.
and the patient gets fleshy and well. This is tne
only way to cure Consumption.
When there is no lung mutae and only Liver
Complaint and Dyspepsia, iicitienck's Seaweed
Tonle and Mandrake Pllig are sufficient, without
the •Pulmonle Syrup. Take the Manci rake Pills
freely in ad billions complaints. as they are Der
fectly harmless.
Dr. Schenck. who has enjoyed uninterrupted
health for many years past, and now weighs Slais
pounds. was wasted away to a mere skeleton, in
the very last stage of Pulmonary ConsumpUoo
hi. pbit, ideas having prouonneed his case hope
