.07 111311 FIRM ANLEBIGAN FLAG EN MEICICO.
The honor of planting the first American flag
that ever floated in the city of Mexico, belongs
to General John A. Quitman, now Chairman of
the Military Committee of the 11. S. House of
Representatives. "/n hot pursuit," es General
Scott graphically remarks; Gen. Quitman
continued to press forward under flank and
direct fires,- carried an intermediate battery of
-two guns, and entered the gates before two
o'clock in the afternoon, but not without pro
portionate loss, increased by his steady main.
tenance of that position." After he got within
the city, he added several defenses to the position
he had won, to shelter his men, for he was now
41 under the guns of the formidable citadel yet
to be subdued !" Here he awaited until morning.
It was a perilous situation, but to the undaunt
ed hearts of the commander and men, nothing
was insurmountable. The next day, and after
the fighting had ceased, ho took his march for
the heart of the city of the Montezumas, and
reaching the great plaza, ho planted guards and
•' hoisted the colors of the United States on the
IVational plaza !"
The American flag was first unfo'dcd to the
breeze, in the city of Mexico, on that day, by
the gallantry of one among the illustrious men
of the South. It is a bright event in history.
From that time might well be dated the first
impulses of the American people, and of the
liberalists of Mexico to introduce American in- I
stitntions and the Anglo-Saxon race.
la - Two CIIILDILEI4 KILLED. —Two children
were killed at Tiltonsville, Ohio, last week, un
der painful circumstances. The day being
pleasant, the two children bad taken a babe
and gone out doors to play. Last winter some
trees had been felled and cut into saw-log
lengths,, and left lying on the hill side. The
thawing and washing of the dirt on the hill-side
bad so loosened one of the logs that of its own
weight it gave way, and rolled down the hill
at the particular time when, these little children
were at play, and rolling over the party, the
two eldest were instantly crushed to death ;
and, remarkable as it may appear, the little
babe was saved with scarely a scratch--a knot
on the log elevating it so as to pass over the
babe without hardly touching it.
tr:7-A I.IARRYI G MAN.-A few days ago
Judge Perrin, of this city, married a man for
the fifth time. A singular feature in the case
is that the fifth wife was also the third wife.
The third marriage •not proving a happy one,
the third parties were separated and were di
vorced. The man married again, and when
death claimed his fourth wife, the disconsolate
widower returned to No. 3, and wooed and
won her. Judge Perrin thinks he has tied
them up effectually this time. The lucky man
had the impudence to claim a reduction of the
marriage fee in consequence of the large busi-
ness he was doing is that line.—Covington

[I:7CLOSE CALCULATI9N.-A SD:Gut/in CASE.
—A man seventy-three years of age recently
died in the Indiana penitentiary, of an affection
of the heart. He was a miser, was incarcera
ted for a forgery of $25, and has left a fortune
of $lOO,OOO. He denied himself the smallest
luxury beyond the prison fare, and at the time
of his arrest he was tendered counsel, who
pledged themselves to clear him of the charge
for the fee of $5OO. To this the old man re
plied, that "if convicted the sentence would
only be for two years. and he didn't think he
could make his expenses and two hundred and
fifty dollars a year out of the penitentiary, and
it would cost him nothing to live there,"and he
would save that much anyhow'!"

ID-A TERRIBLE LEAP—CLEAR ORIT.—We
learn that one of the workmen fell from the
Rock Island Railroad Bridge last week, a dis
tance of fifty-two feet. A large stick of timber
fell at the same time, and from the same place.
Tho ice being rotten, both the stick of timber
and the man went through together, and the
men on the bridge stood aghast, expecting to
see their comrade no more. But in a twinkling
he scrambled out on the ice, and, with clenched
fists and significant gestures, commenced swear
ing terribly at some ono fur pushing him off the
bridge. Barring the cool bath he had received,
he was none the worse of his fearful adventure.

The notorious Nathan Brown, the most re•
markable bigamist ever known in America, was
brought by officer Ellett, the other day, from
near Jeffersonville, Indiana, under a requisition
from. Governor Chase. He is reputed to have
nine living wives ! His practice has been to
live with each about three months, get hold of
their property, and desert them: He is now
safe in Butler county . jail, at the instance of
his seventh wife, a resident of this city. The
old sinner is fifty-three years of age, and has
married three wives within two years.

EPILEPSY, OR FALLING FITS
We believe wo cannot do our readers a more import
ant service, than by again calling their attention to
that most remarkable preparation, discovered by Dr.
Seth S. Hance. of Baltimore, hid., which possesses
the power of alleviating and curing that horrid visi
tation of man--Epilepsy, or Fulling Fits. In recom
mending this preparation to our renders, wo do so
with a conviction that we are not degrading our I'ol
- to puff a common patent tnedicine, but are plac
ing before them a discovery, which, if fully known,
would probably . do more to alleviate human suffering,
than any invention of modern times. Dr. Hance, in
asking us to notice his preparation favorably in our
editorial department, has sent us for perusal a number
of letters front persons who have used his Pills, and
have been cured thereby. All of them speak iu the
most grateful and eulogistic terms. One great ad
vantage this medicine possesses is the fact, that it
can be transported through the mils, thereby afford
ing every one an opportunity of dealing directly
with the inventor, and also precluding all possibility
of being imposed on by n counterfeit or spurious imi
tation. Dr. Hance pays the postage on his Pills to
any part of the couutry,.nnd will forward them by re
turn of mail, on the receipt of a remittance. His
prices are as follows: One box, $3; two do., $.5. '
twelve
do., $24. All orders for the medicine should be ad

"Non To WITOM HONOR. is Dart."—The
great number of personk in all parts of the coun
try who have experienced the. health-restoring
and blood-purifying effects of Carter's Spanish
Mixture in curing many of the worst forms of
Scrofula, Rheumatism, and all diseases arising
from impurity of the blood, has created a de
mand for it which is alike gratifying to pro•
prietors and patients. Among the thousand
medicines which profess to cure all the diseas
es with which mankind is afflicted, Carter's
Spanish Mixture stands like a monument, a
" giant among pigmies," and all owing to the
simple fact that it does really possess properties
found in no other, and cures by its specific pow
er over the blood ; expelling from that a great scat
of life all impurities of lurking disease, opening
the secretions, acting gently on the Liver, and in
fact, adding and assisting nature to collect her
energies ; thus giving strength and vigor in•
stead of weakness and debility. The trial of a
single bottle will bear us out in all we say of this
valuable remedy.
