nut, Fiat OF THURSDAY NIGHT.—We are pleas
ed tiolearn that we ragter exaggerated the extent of
the fito of Thursday evening. Neither the rolling mill
nor the steel manufactory were injured, and the only
hiss sustained was that of the nail factory, with its con
tents.
HAT'S THE PRICE OF SASSENGERsI—Tho dog
killers are busy knocking in the head all of the canine
race that they find running at large, contrary to the city
lordinauces. The citizens in the neighborhood of the
Alutal don't want them buried there, if any, other place
"can be found that would answer as a cemetery for these
victims of our city laws.

Itconner.—The Spirit of the Age states that the
Allegheny and Eagle are not in service. This is only
partly true. The Engines themselves are not in service,
but the hose of each of the companies still arc, and done
very efficient service at the fire in the sth %Vard.
TVe, too, committed an error in stating that a fight
occurred between the inembors of the Allegheny, Nia

black mail—the Chronicle is ahead of them!—Age.
The Age, with its usual unfairness, misrepresents us;
we were not out on 31r. Gwynne's Factory, we merely
..stated a fact gathered from 31r- G-'s own communica

RABBIT'S ANTI-ATTRITION METAL.—This
excellent invention for the reduction of friction in
machinery has at length been introdUcedin our city.—
It consists of a lintxl box, suitable for all revolving and
sliding motions in the various kinds of machinery,where
great weight or speed are applied; these boxes reduce
friction in a remarkable degree, requiring but little oil,
and are warranted entirely free from the objections
found with those now in use.
These lined boxes have been introducedin many of
the Eastern Rail Roads, and in various manufacturing
establishments in that section of country, to which the ,
limits °fan advertisement will not allow us to rrfer,and
nearly thirty well known superintendents,engineers,ma
chinists aria engine builders in the east certify that, "in
the use of these boxes, friction is reduced M a remark
able degree; oil is required onty in small quantities, and
the wear is hardly perceptible, during a period in which
a hard metal box of the same thickness would be worn
out; journals running in these boxes attain a smoother
surface than they have seen on those which have been
run in any other bdx." They also certify "that the pa
tentee of this improvement has received the highest a
' Ward of the Massachusetts Charitable Mechanic's AiS(F
ein Lion, for specimens of these Loxes, (some of which
had been run on the crank of u locomotive engine more
than tlu'rty thousand miles,) at the fair of the Institu
tion, held in Boston in September and October,lB 41."
The Franklin Institute, Philadelphia, also awarded
Mr. Babbitt the premium for the improvement in box-
I es, under the Scott Legacy, which confines such awards
to new and useful impnwements.
Tho Committee on naval affairs reported strongly in
its favor, in consequence of whiAt the right to use it was

Remedy for the Influenza.
T HE Influenza, which is now in almost a universal
epidemic, is exciting the inventors of patent
medicines to increased exertions in the puffing Has,
but owing to the general distrust entertained for the
generality of such drugs, people fear taking theft—.
The following, however, from a distingui s h e d phy s i.
cian in New York, nr. Nelsen, we think may be re*
lied on:
"The object of the present communication is to red
ommend a single remedy, cheap and of easy access la
the poor, and to caution them against an injurious
in this disease, namely, bleeding, either general or )13
leeches. In all those cases in which the first class
symptoms prevail, let the patient smell frequently at
a common salts bottle. (Sims' Aromatic VoLatat
Salts are preferred) and by putting the vial to d
mouth to draw a lew deep inspirations of volatile matt
ter into the lungs. Let this process be repeated two
or three times in nu hour, and it will give more speedy
and greater relief, in all slight cases of the first class
than any other remedy, and will be sufficient for
cure. It will also be essentially useful in the severe
cases; and thaco of the class of prostration, a few
drops or amonia, or hartshorn, ought to taken inter
nally. A neat way of doing •;n is to take an old &air
ioned mixture rolled lac anirnoniari. However, it is ,
as a local remedy, to art on the disordered surface,
th at i ts use advised. The principles will be recog•
nized by all physicians versed in molecular organiza.
Lion, and those who are deficient in that knowledge
may do in that instance as they do in all others act
upon the faith they imbibe." Tile,- :tilts are for sale
and within the reach of all classes, at Wit. THORN'S,
