Interesting Incident.
A few evenings ago an ;mpromtu musical
entertainment was gotten up in the Third
ward school under the direction of Mr.
Edward Sherritt, a well known teacher of
vocal I:IIU3iC in this city. During the en
tertainment ti blind boy named Doake was
introduced, who had just returned to this
city from Philadelphia, where he had been
receiving instruction in the Asylum for
the Blind. Ile sang a few simple melo
dies in a manner that gave evidence that he
not only possessed a talent for music, but
that much care had been bestowed on him
by those in charge of the Asylum. At the
suggestion of a gentleman present, young
Doake addressed the scholars, and in the
course of his remarks related the follow.
ing touching incident : A few years ago
he was feeling his way along Fifth street
—always crowded—and was at times rude.
ly jostled by the hurried pedestrians. Be
ing wearied, the sightless boy sat down to
rest. Soon alter a gentleman approach
ed, and observing that he was blind,
kindly inquired into his pecuniary coodi
Lion. Being informed that he was poor,
and without friends to assist him, he re
solved to become his benefactor. Acting
upon this good reeolve, he sent him to
Philadelphia to the Asylum for the Blind,
where he will remain until he receives a
thorough education. The simple recital
of this incident by young Doake was very
affecting, but language is too poor to por
tray the feelings of those present towards
his generous patron, wh en he gave his name
as FroskscE KRAMER, of the banking
firm of Kramer & Rahm. We could not.
resist the temptation of publishing the
above incident, although fully aware that
the liberal gentleman, whose name we
give, would rather it had not found its
way, in this connection, into the pulp i t
papers. In conclusion, we may add t at
the scholars made up a purse containing a
snug little sum,and presented it to Doake.
He thanked them kindly, while copious
tears gushed from hie sightless eyes.
RECIPE F 01: SCAttLET Fe VEN.
odiet preacher., who keep their eyes open
as they go through the w: rld, have very
fine opportunities to become 'acquainted
with the nature and treatment of human
disease in its various forma. They are
ranch in sick rooms, and in the society of
physicians. They are good observers.
And not unfrequently do their oppor
tunities furnish them with information of
great importance to invalids. These re
flections are suggested by a note from
Rev. W. F, %ilson, of Painesville, Ohio,
containing a receipt for the cure of scarlet
fever. Take our country through one
year with another, no disease is so fatal
as this among children. Sometimes it
baffka the ski!l of the most eminent
physicians, and bids defiance to the most
potent medicines. List year it appeared
In ma'ignaut farm in Painesville. Its vic
tims were numerous, and many hearth
atones ware shadowed and hearts made
desolate. After some time the recipe
given below was highly recommended by
some who had seen its virtues tested. It
was tried 'and prove d a great success.
This was the case in many tsmiles. The
malady at length appeared in the family
of Bro. Wilson, and his cbaervation con
firms the above testimony to the efficacy
of the remedy. He sends us the recipe
for insertion. It runs as follows: "Take
one tablespoonful of spirits turpentine,
half a spoonful of oil of juniper, and one
tea spoonful oil of cloves ; mix half a
pint of West India molasses with one pint
of best quality of West India rum ; sim
mer It together until all is mixed, in a
-ew tin or bright pewter basin, covered
over with a tin or pewter plate, so 1113 to
keep the B :".7`am from catching fire. Give
to an adult table spoonful once an
hour, (children in prz,•rortiou) until the
canker comes off the throat---and that
will not be long. Then dilute it with tea
made of saffron and catnip, equal quan
tities. with half the amount of snake root
added. This tea should be taken freely
by the patient from tne first. The above
recipe is from Elder Bider."—Pittsburgh
Christian Advocate.
CORRECTION.—In noticing the forth•
coming entertainment of Madam Uzzie
Bell, at Concert Hall, in aid of the "Bell
Institute. a Home for the Orphans of
soldiers," at Concert Hall, we inadvertent
ly stated that it would come off on Tnes
day evening, February 2d. We should
have written Friday evening January
29th. We are sorry the mi.take should
have occurred, but trust it will not serious
ly interfere with the lady's success, and
hope she may have a full house, for if a
tithe of the testimonials she brings with
her are true, she amply deserves it.
Bcaws CLUB.—The Burns Club of Cin
cinnati, hold their tenth anniversary thib
evening. These re unions of the country
men and admirers of the favorite Scotch
poet are always most delightful. We be-
Love there are one or two such clubs in
this city. Scotias sons may well be prcnd
of "Robby Barns," the noblest bard
amcng them all.
LEAP YEAR.—A disconsolate bachelor
writes: "The privileges of Leap Year are
not practiced now.a d;ye, and the ladies
seem to have forgotten that they exist."
With all due deference to our ancestors,
who originated the privileges of Leap
Year, we think the custom of soliciting a
end Lu marriage is more honored in tilt.

PEENSYLVANIA CENTRAL R. R.—Now,
that the New Castle and Beaver Valley
141 road, through the energies of Messrs.
Orawford i and Blanchard, is completed
and in operation, giving our Merchants
direct communication with Philadelphia,
the Commercial Metropolis of the State,
our attention is drawn particularly to the
PeralSylvanis Central Railroad, whose
time table for 1864, we publish in this
number of the Courant.
The Pennsylvania Central, from some
cause or other, enjoys the enviable die -
tmotion of being the appointed and safest
Railroad in the country. Its conductors
are gentlemanly in 'heir conduct, and the
unprotected lady, if committed to their
care, is sure to be treated with that
courteous attention which is character
istic of Americans all the world over.
"Carefulness and dispatch" seem to be
the motto of the Pennsylvania Central,
and no one can wonder, therefore, at the
amount of travel and trade which natural.
lv seeks this grand route between the
East and the West.—New Castle Courant.
THEATRE.—Mrs. Waller, the great tragic
actress, commences an engagement this
evening in the character of Lady Macbeth,
in which her reputation stands deservedly
high. The Journal, of Indianapolis,
where she has just terminated en engage•
ment, has the following: "The sterling
merit of the plays she produced during the
past week, and the incomparable art with
which she portrayed human passion as
exemplified in the characters and desti
nies of her heroines, produced a profound
and unusual sensation among the patrons
of our well conducted theatre. The andi
torium was nightly packed, and even the
standing room thronged with admirers of
this fine artiste ; and we are gratified to
record, on unexceptional authority, that
the receipts of Mrs. Waller's first six
nights were larger than ever before played
to in the same period by any star who has
shone in the Metropolitan.
GRAND PROMENADE CONCERT AND BALL.
—There will be a grand promenade con

tence Committee, under the auspices of
the Young Men's Terneichorean Society,
at Concert Hall, on Wednesday evening
next. Promenade at eight o'clock ; den
cing to commence at ten o'clock. It is
the determination of those having the
matter in Charge to make it one of the
grandest affairs of the kind that ever came
off in this city, and as the tickets have
been fixed at tue low price of $1 00, there
should be thousands of them disposed of.
A number of our most influential citizens
have consented to the use of their names
as honorary members, and the enterprise
will doubtless be a successful and pleasant
one.
ARTIFICIAL Lim ss.—Our government in
its generosity towards those who have lost
a limb in its service, has made arrange
ments whereby such persons may procure
an artificial leg or arm without charge.
Many, however, do not know through
whom to apply to Government for the re
quired article: and on such we feel we will
be conferring a lavor by stating that the
proper mode of application for all within
the jurisdiction of Gen. Brooks depart
ment is through Dr. L. H. Holden, As

at all limes a; Gen. Brook's Headquarters,

ed yesterday upon authority which we deem
reliable, that the difficulty between the
Pittsburgh, Ft. Wayne and Chicago Rail
way Company and its employees has been
amicably adjusted, and that all the trains
will commence running as heretofore to••
day. The basis of settlement with the
engineers we learn is that the engineers
are to receive four cents per mile for every
trip they make, By this arrangement
both the company and its employees will
be benetitted ; the latter in the increased
wages they will receive, and the former by
the care and attention the engineers will
bestow upon their locomotives so as to
have them at all times in readiness to per
form any duty assigned them.

Scott House on Friday even, we did not

we can learn the deceased bore an un
blemished character, and why she com•
mitted the rash act of suicide will perhaps
forever remain a mystery.

The King of Denmark has issued a
spirited and warlike address to his army,
calling on them to uphold the honor of

A Copenhagen telegram says about
14,000 men of the reserve have been call

The official Government correspondence
*of Vienna cautions the minor German
States against precipitated action against

the excitement is increased throughout
Germany, and in Vienna it is the general
belief that war will ensue in the spring.
The reports that the new king of Greece

confusion there existing, is not confirmed.
A report has gained currency that pro•

The Times is suspicions of the ultra
pacific tone of Napoleon, and says that
each a line of conduct is worse than any

Frenchman, formerly of the rebel army,
to a friend here, dated Richmond, Jan.
l7.—He reports the arrival of another
agent of the French Emperor named
Martigny, who came via Nassau, and who
has had several mysterious conferences
with Jett' Pavia. It is known he says
that Jeff has prop:m:43U to recegnize the
empire in Mexico, and has also promised
France all the advantages of the Southern
confederacy if Napoleon will only recog
nize and support the Southern cause. All
our principal men he says think therefore
that a war between France and the United
States is near at band. The writer has no
doelt that the plan proposed of making
Gen. Lee a dictator will be adopted as the
only means of counteracting the strength
of the North. Gen. Lee has expressed
his unwillingness to accept the dictator
whip. He and Jeff Davis are on bad terms
and the latter would in such a case have
to retreat. Davis has been latterly very
unpopular in consequence cf having kept
Bragg so long in command ; be has even
contemplated since dismissing that Gen.
of giving him command of the Army of
Virginia, and of sending Lee to Dalton,
but he had to abandon the plan.un ac
count of the groit influence brought to
bear against it. Gen, Johnson who took
command of Bragg's demoralized army
thooght of retreating to Atlanta, but was
kept at ['Alton that he might take advan
tage of the probable weakening of the
northern army by furloughs and expired
terms of service.
Jeffs plan is to keep hie armies on the
offensive though Lee has given the opin
ion that with the miserable condition of
his army with regard to clothing and pro
visions, it will be impossible to do so.

THE GREATEST NERVINE EVER
DISCOVERED—THE GREATEST 'BO.
NIC EVER DISCOVERED—THE
GREATEST ALTERATIVE EVER
DHICOVERED
A CURE FOR INTEMPERANCE.
AA NERVINE, IT ALLAYS THE
chronic inflammation of the stomach, in air
persons addicted to the use of stimulants and
narcotics, such as Alcoholic and Malt Liquors,
opium, Morphia, Arsenio Tobacco, eta, etc. It
removes the morbid appetite or craving of the
stomach for stimulants, &o. In Headache, Neu
ralgia and all nervous diseases, it has no equal
as a Nervine.
A 3 A TONIC. it gives a healthy tone to the
stomach. Improves the appetite, corrects liver
derangements, regulates the bowels, removes Lan
guor and drowsiness, and brings perfect health to
the Dyspeptic:
AS Ar 4 ALTERATIVE. The blood, the life of
the body. is derived from the food we digest.
How important. then, that the duties of the stom
ach are perfectly performed. If its duties are
imperfectly executed, disease instead of health is
mattered through the system. When our food is
properly digested, pure blood is tru_pplied the
body, and blotches, Pittiplea Tatter, Erysipelas,
Old notes, hierourial and Venetia' Taints, and
otheudiseases arising from impure blood, disap
pear. Use Dr. Cutter's English Bitters and you
will have perfect digestion and pure blood.
For particulars of this celebrated Medicine,
procure Dr. Cutter's circular from any of our
Agents.
