    Dreams. When a man dreams of fish in g, it
is a sign some scat; fellow is quietly nibbling
away his good character; ' . '
To dream of being in company with a chim
ney sweep, denotes Hack looks from rising
friends. ' ?
For a yonng lady to dream of blowing a can
dle out, signifies that she will be likely to take
to snuff.
For a yonng man to dream that ho is asleep
hi church, is a sign thai he is- net waking to
bis own good.
For a yonng lady to dream of lemons, is a
sign tha she ought to be squeezed.
Nearly all, if not all, the drinking saloons
In St. Louis, it is said, are furnished with
straws for sncking juleps, by one- roan, who
sells them for one and a half or two dollars a
thousand. From about two acres of land, on
which be grows rye annually, he sells about
twenty-four hundred dollars' worth of straws,
They are packed also in barrels, containing a-
bout 12,000 straws, and shipped to 5ew Or
leans, St. Paul, and the intermediate places,
and the demand is increasing.
The Kinderbook Rough Notes tells the fol
lowing about a shoemaker who plies his awl in
that Tillage : "Once upon a time ho promised
to hare a pair of boots finished at a specified
day for ex-Prcsident Van Buren, but failed to
hare tbem done when called for. In the
meantime the ex-President started for Europe
and was gone three years. Upon his return
he called for his boots, and was- told tbey were
finished, with the exception of treeing out .'"
Tbey have a juvenile prodigy at Boonville
a "wee bit of a bov" Who astonisned his mo
ther a few days since. She had occasion to
chastise him slightly for some offence he had
committed ; Charley sat very qnietly in his
chair for some tsme aftcrwards,no doubt think
ing very profoundly. At last he broke out
tftns-r "Muzzer, 1 wish pa'd get anuzzer house
keeper, and let you go." "Why so, my son V
"Cause, I've got tired secin' you round."
During the Revolutionary War, the Earl of
Dartmouth asked an American in London of
how many members the Congress consisted.
To which the reply was, "Fifty-two." "Why
that is tho number of cards in a pack," said
his lordship, "pray bow many knaces (jacks)
are there V "Not one," returned the repub
lican; "please to recollect that knaves are
ewrt eards."
Two country lawyers, overtakfng a wagoner
and thinking to crack a joke on him, asked
him with assumed gravity, "Pray, mister wag
oner, how is it that your lead horse is so fat
and the others so lean V The wagoner, with
sharp penetration, replied : "Well, you see the
reason is plain the lead horse is a lawyer,
and tho other two are his clients." The jo
kers vamosed inslantcr.
A windy Member of Parliament, in a tedi
ous oration, stopped to imbibe a glass of wa
ter. "I rise," said Sheridan, "to a point of
order." Everybody started in wonder of what
the point of order was. "What is it ?" asked
tho Speaker. "I think, sir," said Sheridan,
"it is out of order for a windmill to go by
water."
Arkansas is a queer country. If you go
there with a gold piece, they tar and feather
you for being a rich man. If you are poor,
they give you fever and ngue and let it kill
you. Curious country, altogether.
There is a place in Perry county, Indiana,
called Tell City, which was commenced a little
over a year ago, and now has a population of
about twelve hundred.
The following bill was lately presented to a
farmer in Sussex: "To hanging two barn
doors and myself seven hours, four shillings
and six-pence."
A Chinaman has made the discovery that a
donkey cannot hee-haw when a weight is tied
to its tail.
It is said that Spurgeon, the great revivalist,
Is coming to America.

INDIAN BOTANIC REMEDIES!
In treatment of diseases of the Lungs and Chest.
Liver, Stomach, Bowels, Heart, Nerves, Skin. Scrof
ula. Salt Rheum. Erysipelas. or any and all disea
ses arising from impure blood. Female Weakness
and Female diseases of all kinds; also all forms of
Chronic or long standing diseases, have given
Dr. Jackson a World-wuU reputation.
REflCLAP. VISITS'.
Dr. Jackson will make regular visits to a large
number of the principal Towns in Ohio, Pennsvl
vania and New York. Patients can thus have the
privilege of consulting regularly, once in from one
to tnrec months a matter in very many cases ln
dispcnsiblo in performing a cure. It is difficult
for any Ph ysician to prescribe a course of medi
cine by only once seeing tho patient, to affect a
permanent and lasting cure.
INVALIDS SHOrLD MARK WELL THE TIME!
And call as early as possible. Tho time is limi
ted and tho appointments will be punctually kept
as above. If sick with any Chronic d iseases. do
not delay, as time only tends to confirm and ren
der a cure more protracted and difficult.
Dr Jackson will make examinations of the
Lungs and Chest, by tho use of the Stethoscope,
l'ree of Charge.
Dr. Jackson, althongh paving xiiecia! attention
to Lung. Throat, Heart and FciuMc diseases, also
invites to consultations in all Chronic diseases in
cident to the human system. Seeing many thou
sand cases every year, he is well prepared "to give
an opinion as 10 me cnraoiuiv ot any case.
