They have been in operation in this city for but a few weeks, and • already the pro prietors exhibit certificates of cures effected in eases where every other course of treatment failed to give any relief. On inquiry, we were referred to two cases, one of the dropsy, the other a very aggravated cutaneous disease, in which the patients were restored to a healthy condition a few' days after they took the Baths. They have been in use in Europe and por tions of the United States for many years passed, and ' in almost every form of disease with which mankind is afflicted, they have effected cures.

When, in addition to these facts, the manufacturer or. fens to sell them one-third cheaper than the foreign ar ticle, we think the friends of home industry and true economy will not neglect to call on Mr Gwyn= for "more light" when they require it. A Neste Act.--Yesterday in the afternoon, :tree boys went out into the Allegheny River, in a skiff, to bathe. When some distance from the shore, one of them stripped and jumped in, but did not rise to the surface again. His companions became alarmed, but it was some moments before theircriea attracted atten tion. At ength , however, several persons collected oaths shore, but march looked ou without appearing to be able to du any thing to save the boy. While they thus stood in doubt and apathy, a man came running down, learnt what was the matter, and with admirable presence of mind, jumped into a skiff, and rowed out to where the boat from which the boy had leaped from was fastened. The two lads that were in it, pointed out as near as they could the place their companion had sunk, and then without waiting to take off his hat, the noble-hearted fellow plunged into the river,and after remaining ander water until fear were entertain ed for his safety, he came to the surface bringing the rescued boy with him. The boy was under water about 15 minutes, but was soon restored by the proper appliances. „, The name of theman who did this noble act deserves to be written in letters of gold; it is James CILDWSLL, Nailer of Allegheny city. His courage, promptness, and presence of mind, are worthy of all emulation.

They may be seen at the Looking Glass Store of W. C. WALL, in Fourth street, between Wood and Market.
