uu ft V1 I I; :!:! M 1 11 i GO IT, BOB-TAIL. "A specimen of the genus "Hoosier" was found by the Captain or a Eteamer, in the en gine room of bis boat, while lying at Louis ville, one fine morning in June. The captain inquired to know "What he was doing there 1" "Dave you seen Captain Perry V was the interrogative response. . 1 don't know him ; and can't tell what that has to do with your being in my engine room," replied the captain angrily. - - Hold on ! That's just what I was getting at. Ton see, Captain Ferry and I walked down street together. Captain Ferry asked me to drink, and so I did. I knew I wanted to drink, or I wouldn't have been so cussed dry. So, Captain Perry and I drank two or three times. Captain Perry and I then went to a ball. Captain Ferry was putting on some extras on one toe. I sung out 'Go it Captain .Terry, if you bust yonr biler !' With that a man steps up to me and says be, " 'See here, stranger, you must leave.' "Says I, 'what must I leave lur V 'Sayshe, 'you're niakinsr too much noise.' "Says I, sI've been in a bigger crowd than this, and made more noise, and didn't leave nuther.' "With that he tuk me by the nap of the neck and the seat of the breeches, and I left ! As 1 was shovin' down street, I met a lady. I knew she was a lady by the remark she made. She says, " 'Young man, I reckon you'll go home with me ?' "And I went! "I'd been in ber house but a short time wben I heard a d-1 of a knockin' on the door. I knew the chap wanted to get in, whoever he was, or he wouldn't have kept np sicb a tbun derin' racket. By and by said a voice, " 'If you don't open, I'll bust in the door !' "And so be did ! "I pnt on a bold face, and says I, 'Stranger, Goes tnis woman belong to you V "Says be, 'she does.' "Then, says I, 'she's virtuous, I think, lrom all that I've seen of ber !' "With that, he come at me with a pistol in ore hand, and a bowie knife in the other; and bem' a leetle pressed for time, I jumped thru the windur, a leavin' the bigger portion of my coat tail. As I was streakin' it down town, with the fragments flutterin' to the breeze, I passed a friend. I knew be was a friend, by -a remark be made. Says be, 'Go it, Bob-tail ! Ae's gainta on yoa ' "And that's the way I happened in your en gine room. I'm a good swimmer, captain do excuse me, if yon please, lrom takin' wattr!" Thi.vk. The number of languages spoken are 4,064. The number of men is about equal the number of women. The average of human life is 33 years. One quarter die before the age of 7. One half before the age of seven teen. To every 1,000 persons, one only reach es 100 years. To every 100 only six reach 75 years ; and not more than one in 500 will reach 80 years. There are on the earth 1.000,000,000 of inhabitants. Of these 33,333,333 die every year; 91,824 die every day ; 7,780 every hour, and 60 per minute, or 1 every second. These losses are about balanced by an equal noruber of births. The married are longer lived than the single ; and above all, those who observe a sober and industrious conduct. Tall men live longer than short ones. Women have more chances of life previous to the age of 50 years than men, but fewer after. The number of marriages is in the proportion of 76 to 100. Marriages are more frequent after the equi noxes, that is, during the months of Juno and December. Those born in Spring are gener ally more robust than others. Births and deaths are more frequent by nigh than by day. Number of men capable of bearing arms is one fourth of the population. Got Cheated. Under this caption, the Kanawha (Virginia) Valley Star tells the fol lowing hard story : A colporteur, quite re cently, in an adjoining county, approached a man whose name we will not make public, and solicited him to purchase a Bible. The man refused, and gave as his reason for so doing that he had no money, and that he could not read. The colporteur, ascertaining that be was a married man, and that he had no Bible, became anxious to leave one with him, and not being able to sell it to him, offered lo give the book to his fellow creature. The man hung down his head awhile, and seemed to ponder on the proposition, but finally agreed to take one, provided it was given to him. The colporteur gave the Bible; the man took it home and presented it to his wife, who could read a little. She examined the volume very carefully, and gave it back, saying that only about one half of it was the Bible, that the other half was something else, called the New Testament. The bright husband became enraged, and went in search of the colporteur, declaring that be had got '-cheated," because the book was only halt "Bible." An Immense Windfall. According to the Cumberland (Md,) jJlleganian, an old man named John Brobst, living in the Glades, in that county, recently discovered that be was the rightful owner of a large tract of land in the richest mineral region of Pennsylvania, underlaid with immense seams of coal and' iron, and valued at $3,000,000. Brobst, it is said, lived on the farm fifty years ago, became involved through his brother, mortgaged his property to its then full value, and came to Maryland, where he bas ever since lived in in digent circumstances. The property subse quently passed into the hands of his nephews, who afterwards sold it to a wealthy company. The difficulty of giving a good title to the property led to the fact that Brobst was still -live. He was searched out, found, and taken on to Pennsylvania, and according to the Jllle- c'nlia0lli OUt aU hU r'Sht for th OI ,600,009. New Yorkr city pays $800,000 annually In support of Alms Ilonses, or about $2 200 per day; $250,000 annually for cleaning streets or about $080 per day ; $400,000 for lamps and gas. or about $1,105 per day ; $959,000 for po lice, or $2,600 per day ; $480,000 annually for talaries, or $1,300 per day ; $1,400,000 tor pub lic scbools annually, or about $3,800 per day. Total expenses per day, 511,680. A gentleman, who bad a very blundering servant, put down in writing, everything he wished turn to do. Going to the country, one day, the masterfell into a ditch. lie called the lad, who, instead of hastening to his assis tance, exclaimed, "Stop, let me see if it's down in my memorandum book." A voter deficient in personal beauty, said to Sheridan, I mean to withdraw my counte nance from you." "Many thanks for the fa vor, ' replied Sheridan, "for it is the ugliest rung I ever saw." A Traveler, relating his adventures, told the company that h and his servant bad made fif ty wild Arabs run ; which startling them, he observed that there was no great matter in it for, said he, "we ran, and they ran after us." The Western papers say that the muskrats have built their winter bouses 'high and thin ' as If contemplating a mild time coming. .

My connection for the past eight years with the above Institution, as Chief Physi cian, and atwelve years course of steady devotion to the Cure of Pulmonary Consumption and its kindred diseases, together with my unrivalled op portunities aad advantage of pathological research aided not a little by a perfect system of Medical JnJialation has enabled me to arrive at a deci sive, direct, and successful Cuur.se of treatment for the positive and radical cure of all diseases of the Throat, Lung, ami Air-passages. By Inhalation the vapor and curative properties of medicines are directly addressed to the diseased organs of the in tegument. I do not advise the uso of Medical In halation of any kind, to the exclusion of general treatmeiU ; and although I consider it a useful ad juvant in the proper management of those fearful and often fatal diseases, vet I deem it iprv nw.. sary that each patient should have the benefit of oom general and local treatment. The success of my treatment in the abovo diseases, and the high character of tho Institution over"which I havo so long had the honor to preside, are too well known to need any eulogy or comment from me. ' At the solicitation of many privato and professional friends, through whose puilanthropio aid the above charity has been long and liberally supported and after due consideration, 1 have eoneluded to make such arrangements as will bring the benefits of my experience and treatment within the reach of all, and not confine myself, as heretofore, to those on ly who entered the Infirmary, or who were able to visit me at my office.

It is a wU known and incontrovertible fact that the use of Tobacco is the promoting cause of many of tku most severe MENTAL AND PHYSICAL disorders to which the race of man is subject, as oureful an alasis and long and painful experience have elear ly proven that it contains certain narcotic and poi sonous properties most dangerous in their effMU which by entering into the blood derange the functions and operations of the Heart causing ma ny to suppose that organ to be seriously diseased. TOBACCO affects also she eu tire nervous system, manifesting itself as all who have ever nsed the noxious weed will bear testimony in Lassitude, Nervous Irritability, Water Brash, Dyspepsia, and many other disorders of a similar character. The "Taste Restorative Troches' are designed to 00a a teract these baneful influences, and have proved completely successful in a multitude of eases, and wherever nsed. Being harmless in themselves they exert a beneficial effect upon the entire sys tem, restoring the Taste which has become vitia ted or destroyed by great indulgence, complete ly removing the irritation and accompanying tick ling sensation of the Throat which are always consequent upon abstaining from the use of Te bacco, and by giving a healthy tone to the S teni ae h. invigorate the whole system. Persons who are irretrievably undermining their constitutions and shortening their lives, should use these Troches immediately and threw off the injurious and unpleasant habit of Tvbaoe Chewing.
