"'loan, must confess themselves out-Jone by t h e fellow
s' tug choice morsel of invention:
A Singular Adienture.—Last week a young man,
while hu:iting on St. Vincent's Lando. lay down upon
his blanket in the 'shade of a tree, and being very tired,
— "loon fell into a sound sleep, which continued about
— two hours. Upon waking, he dinconerrsi that he had
'been carried abont twenty yards fromthe tree, and that
In wan still moving along without any visible iznpeilant
lids first thou;hts were of snakes and a Iliratorn, which
*bound in thisisland. Horrified by the idea of such
bed fellows, he leaped from his blanket, and seizing a
slick boldly veniumtl back to ferret out hisunweketne
companion. But the blanket, relieved of his weight,
was now marching off in double_ quek-time, and did
not stop until it had arrived at the foot of an enormous
^ant hill. nearly eight fuut high. It appears that a
"myriad ..f these insects, about a size larger than the
Non suit, had surrounded, captured. and were quietly
conducting him home kw winter stares.
Artful Tricks.—An exchange paper gives en se
count of the artful tricks of a past - titer confined in jail,
to induce the appearance of disease, end obtain a re
lease from his punishment. He began to spit blood,
bad a violent cough and fever. and gradually wasted
au ay, so that those who visited him supposed that his
"'death was rapidly approarhin,g. This continued for a
Instnight, and his werckness vsns sn great that he had
to bo lifted up to lake medicine or nutriment. A
timakry, unfoitunstely. however, left the door of the
prism open for n few minute., in order to Warm bricks
for his cold extremities; on his return Smith had dis-
appeared. On b'•ing again put into prison, he feign
ed cactencin btemoptysis 'rid epilepsy, but without suc
teens. He-confessed that he preter.ded to raise blood
try pounding bricks into powder, putting it into a small
sag, and chewing it in Isis month. He contrived to
'ear" his pulse by striking his elbows, and said he had
taken his fie b off his body in ten dnys by sucking a
et pper-cent in his mouth all the night, and sw allow
ing -the saliva. It is a very common I ractice among
the inmates of prisons to counterfeit diseases, and all
tbs. skill, sazacity arid vigilanCie of the physieian are
accessary, many cases, to detect the imposition.

Reining 4. Blade:
fIENTTANEN:--I have made trial of your Vapor
Bath. The benefit thereof has much exceeded
my expectatio s. I had not anticipated the degree of
pleasure produced by the medicated vapor during
the whole process of its operation. I could scarcely
bile spent fifteen minutes more pleasantly; while
my longs were inhaling an odoriferous perfumed at
nioephere, and every pore of my system was exuding,
in copious perspiration; noxious humors, injurious to
the healthy state. I left the Bath greatly refreshed,
arid evenexhilerated. I bad been troubled much with
rheumatic pains, and worn down with fatigue cf busi
ness; the pains were completely removed, and I re
ceived fresh animation. It cannot, it is true, cure
broken bones, or reduce luxations of joints; to such
things it makes no pretensions. But it can and does,
expel from the body, such peccant matter as may, by
its presence, be incompatible with a perfectly healthy
condition of the human frame. IVithout hesitation, I
can recommend the Vapor Bath to ail afflicted by
languoiof constitution, nr laboring under su c h di seas .
. es as itprofesses to alleviate or cure.

La! what makes your teeth so unusually which?
Quoth Josh's dulciniu tohim Cother night,
To make yourn louk so, with a grin, replied Josh,
l',e bought you a bottle of Thorn% Tooth Wash,
'Tisthe best now in use, so the gentlefolks say,
And since they have tried this, cast all others away.
But to prove it the best to make the teeth shine,
Look again, my dear Sal, at tke lustre 4111410.
Then try this great toc,th wash,
The Teaherry tooth wash.
And see if this tooth wash of Thorn's is not fine.
Having tried Dr. "Thorn's Tea Berry Tooth Wash,"
and become acquaintedwith theingredients of its com
position, f cheerfully say, J consider it one of the safest,
as it is•one of the most pleasant tooth washes now
.in
DAVID HUNT, Dentist.
Pittsburgh, Sept. 15, 1842.
I take 'Pleasure in stating, having made use of.
"Thom's Tea Berry Tooth Wash," that it is one of the
best dentrifices in use. Being. in a liquid form I t com
bines neatness with convenience. While it cleanses
the enamel and removes the tartar from the teeth, its
perfume yields a fragrance peculiarly desirable.
J. I'. TIBBETTS. 10. D.
The undersigned have used "Thorn's Compound
Ten Berry Tooth Wash," and have found it to be an
extremely pleasant deutrilce, exercising a most salu
tary influence over the Teeth and Gums; preserving
those indispensable members from premature decay,
preventing the accumulation of Tartar, and purifying
the Breath. Having thoroughly tested its virtues, we
take plensure in recommending it to the public, believ
ing it 'o be the best article ofthe kind now in use.
