Wit of Douglass Jeer old. — In one of
Douglass Jerrold’s plays,an old sailor, trying
10 snatch a kiasfrom a pretty girl, got a box
on the ear. “There,” exclaimed he, “Uke
my luck; always get wrecked on coral
reefs !” The manager not being able to see
the joke, it was cut out by the author.
The following saying was likewise sacri
ficed by Jerrold, on account of a captious re
mark by a friend to whom the manuscript
waa read. A cynic, wrangling with his bet
ter half, in one of his comedies, was repre
sented as saying to her: “My notion of a
wife of forty is, that a man should exchange
her, like a bank note for two twenties I l '
To Clean Silk.—Pare and slice thin
three washed Irish potatoes. Pour on them
a half-pint of boiling water, and let it stand
till cold. Strain the water, and add an equal
quantity of pure alcohol. Sponge the silk
on the right side and when half dry iron it
on Ihewrong aide. The lightest colored silk
may be cleansed and brightened by this pro
cess ; also, cloth, velvet, or crape.
Cold.—Abstain from all food for a day
or two and drink cold water freely, and your
told will be gone. This is the simplest and
most effectual remedy yet known.
Lightning. —Persons rendered insensible
a stroke of lightning, may he revived by
pouring cold water over the face and head.
Many a man has rashness enough to do
wrong, who has not courage enough to con
fess it.
Brave actions are the substance of life, and
good savings the ornament of it.
Vice slings even in our pleasures, but vir
lug consoles even our pains.

Report of the Committee appointed to superintend
the Burning of the Iron Safes, at Reading, Feb.
27,1857.
“The undersigned, members of the committee, do
respectfully report, that we saw the two Safes origi
nally agreed upon by Farrels Sc Herring and Evans
Sc Watson, placed side by side in a furnace, viz:
The Safe in use by the Paymaster of the Philadel
phia and Reading Railroad Company, in his office
at Reading, manufactured by Farrels Sc Herring,
and the safe in use by H. A. Lantz, in his store,
manufactured by Evans AAVatsoDjand pat in books
and papers precisely alike?; i
The fire was. started at o’clock, A. M-, and
kept up until four cords of green hickory, two cords
dry oak and half chestnut lop wood were entirely
consumed, the whole under the jsuperintendencc of
the subscribers, members of the Committee. The
Safes were then cooled off with! water, after which
they were opened and the books and papers taken
out by the Committee and sent to H. A. Lantz’s
store for public examination, after they were first
examined and marked by the Committee, The
books and papers taken from Safe mannfactored
by Evans & Watson were bat slightly affected by
the intense heat, while those taken from (he Safe
manufactured by Farrels Sc Herring, were in our
judgment, damaged fully fifteen per cent more than
those taken from Evans Sc Watson’s Safe.
We believe the above to havef been a fair and im.
partial trial of the respective qualities of bath Safes.
