    Yankee Doodle in Austria.
We clip the following from a letter in the New
York Herald, dated Vienna, Feb. 5, 1846 :
".Vieux Temps has been performing for
some time in the Imperial Opera House,
and his popularity in the city where mu
sic of every kind is so closely criticised,
must be highly flattering to him.—lle is
decidedly a great favorite, and is always
warmly received. A few evenings ago I
was present at one of his performances,
and witnessed an occurrence well calcu
lated to excite the eutiogiasm of an
American heart. Vieux Temps had fin
ished a series of pieces with the Carnival
of Venice—he was called out again, when
he struck up Yankee Doodle with varia
tion. This set the whole audience into a
perfect uproar.—" Americancr I" cried
out one of the Austrians; "Bravo!" a
linndreil others; and you may well ima
gine that we Americans, three or four in
number, found it rather difficult to sit still
during this enthusiastic expression of feel
ing for our beloved country. At the close
of the piece the applause was unbouniled.
Vieux Temps was called out three times
before the curtain fell, and twice after
wards : the audience each time receiving
him standing, and greeting him with
rounds of applause, while nearly all the
ladies in the house were clapping their
hands to the best of their ability. There
is one box in this house known as the En
glish box. I cast my eyes towards it,
and found its occupiers silent observers of
the scene, probably reflecting on Bunker
Hill, Lexington. &c."
GREAT MEN OF OUR. COUNTRY.-Tho
New.Bueryport Herald states that Daniel
Webster, alter his return from Europe,
asked a friend to guess whose were the
AmeriCan names better and more univer
sally known and admired in England than
all other American names put together.—
His friend answered, Washington and
Chief . Justice Marshall. No, said Mr.
Webster, I mean living persons, and they
are Judge Story and Peter Parley; for
while the former is known to every law
yer in England, and generally among the
educated classes, the latter has entire
possession of the young hearts of old Eng
land--that wherever he went into an
English family, and the chilhren were
brought in and presented to him as Mr.
Webster, an American gentleman, they
wonld be sure, with scarcely a single ex
ception, to approach him, and looking him
in the face, with the ntmost anxiety ex
pressed in theirs, would say, do you
know "Peter Parley ?"
ESCAPE OF A CONICT.-A most daring
escape from the Mississippi Penitentiary,
on the 10th ult, was effected by a convict,
the particulars of which we find in the
Mississippian of the 15th. Five convicts
were sent out into a woodland belonging
to the prison, for the purpose of procur
ing some wood for the brick yard, and the
patty were accompanied by an armed
guard, Mr. J. H. Weaver. As he was
stooping to give some instructions to one
of the prisoners one of the convicts struck
him with the head of an axe and felled him
to the earth, and his gun fell from his
hands. The convict immediately seized
the gun and a pistol and bowie knife be
longing to him and fled. One of the con
victs immediately started in persuit, but
the fleeing miscreant threatened to shoot
him if he proceeded farther, and he re
turned to the guard, who was then assisted
back to the prison by the remaining four
convicts. The assistant keeper immedi
ately prccured some dogs from a distance
of about thirteen miles, and five hours
alter, put them upon the icovict's trail.
A few miles off it was discovered that he
had seized a negro and forced him to ex
char,ge clothes with him, stole a horse and
started for Columbus. He was eventually
overtaken about forty miles from Jackson.
A reward of $5O was given to a Mr. Hall,
the owner of the dogs. The name of the
convict was not given.
B ,
A DREADFUL TRAGEDY.—The
more Clipper says that considerable ex
citement was created at Kingston, Ja., on
the 22t1 ult, in consequence of a young
man named Nicholas, having deliLerately
murdered his brother at a card table,
The Kingston Journal says,—"The de
tails are briefly that two brothers had been
gambling; the younger had won the week's
earnings of the elder—the latter demand,
ed the return of the money—it was re
fused, and infuriated by opposition' and
loss, he stabbed his unfortunate younger
brother to the heart."
DIGNIFIED LzotsLexrostl—T-On Monday
a motion was made in the House of Rep
resentatives at Washington, that when
the House adjourns on Thursday, it ad
journ to meet again on Monday next.
The ostensible reason for this was, to have
the House ventilated and to have the sum
liner matting put down on the floor.
Mr. George W. Jones inquired if the
Races came on at the time specified in the
Resolution, and moved to strike out
"Thursday," and insert: "at the tune the
Spring Races shall come oft on the Wash
ington Jockey Club Course." Mr. Jones's
amendment was lost, and the original mo.
Lion was carried. Mr. Jones was for ma.
king known the true reason for adjourn
ment.
LOCUIT fisED—must be prepared by pouring
scalding water over it, and letting it stand submerged
from twelve to thirty-six hours, according to the
age and the character of the seed.
Tim &ism—A man said ale was excellent,
though when taken in large quantities it always
made him fat. "'I have seen it make you lean,"
said a bystander.

Hathaway's
Patent Conklin.: Stove.
RIGEIT SIDE UP!!
Tr WOULD respectfully inform the pub
lic, that I shall continue as heretofore,
to act as Agent for the sale and delivery of
the justly celebrated Hathaway Cooking
Stove, manufacturnd by A. B. Long & Co.,
who have at a heavy expense secured the
exclusive right of Patentee of Huntingdon
and other counties.
No bombastic eulogy is deemed essential
to add to the already acquired celebrity of
this stove. It is necessary, however, to ob
serve that the high reputation this stove has
gained by practical use, has induced the man
ulccturers of other and inferior articles, to
borrow (nut to use a harsher term) the name
Of HATHAWAY, and prefix it to an
proved," in order to make their inferior
trash go off as genuine, and thereby impose
upon the public. 1, myself, sell the only
REAL HA IHAWAY stove that is or can
be sold in this county, and would therefore
admonish the public against the imposition
above alluded to. lam happy in being able
to say, confidently, that during the last three
or four years, in which I have been con
stantly dealing in and putting up these stoves,
1 have found them to give universal and
unbounded satisfaction. Any communica
tion in relation to stoves addressed to me at
Lewistown, Mifflin county, (my . place of
residence) will meet with the earliest posi
ble attention.
V" A few good sound horses wilt be taken

I'ESTIMONIALS
Messrs. SANFORD & PARK--Dear Sirs:—
With regard to Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild
Cherry, for which you are wholesale agents,
we have sold, since last October, eighty
two bottles at retail, and have heard from
a great portion of them as producing the
dgsired effect.'
Several important cases in this vicinity,
which came under our personal knowledge
have been cured!—where other remedies
have been tried for years without effect.
In fact, we think it one of the most inval
uable remedies for consumption of the lungs
I land all other complaints for which it is re
commended; and do think, that the suffer
ing of the afflicted demand that you should
give it a general circulation, and make its
virtues known. Yours, truly,
WEAGLY & KNEPPER, Druggists.
Wooster, 0., May 20, 1843.
[From the Cineinnatti Daily Time 3 of
May SOth 1843.
"Whaar's Balsam of Wild Cherry.—We
should judge front Messrs. Weagely &
Knepper's letter, published this day among
our advertisements, that this . popular rem
edy for coughs, lung complaints, and dis
eases of the breast generally, was really a
valuable medicine, .and wcrthy of serious
attention trom the public. We are infored
by the wholesale agents, that they are al
most daily receiving similar letters from all
parts of the West.
We would advise our readers who are
laboring under an affection of the lungs, to
make immediate trial of this truly excel
lent medicine. The most intelligent and
respectable families of our city have adopt
ed it as a favorite family medicine ; and
persons:predisposed to consumption who
have used it, speak in the highest terms of
its efficacy."

Hoffman, a physician of extensive practice
in Huntingdon county
Dear Sir:-1 procured one bottle of Dr.
Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, from
Thomas Read, Esq. , of this place, and tried
it in a case of obstinate Asthma on a child
of Paul Schweble, in which many other
remedies had been tried without any relief.
The Balsam gave sudden relief, and in my
opinion the child is effectually cured by its
use. Yours, &c
