THE alarming increase in the num,ber of fright ful accidents, resuliiiig in terrible deaths and destruction of valuable property, caused by the in discriminate use of oils, known under the name of Petroleum, prompts us to call your speetal)attention to an article which will, wherever used, remove the cause of such accidents. We allude to CARSON'S STELLAR OIL for ILLUMINATING PURPOSES The proprietor of this oil has for several years felt the necessity of providing for, end presenting to the public, as a substitute for the dangerous com pounds which are sent broadcast over the country, as an oil that is safe, brilliant, and entirely reliable. After a long series of laborious and costly experi ments, he.hoe succeeded in providing, and now of fers to the public, such a substitute, in "CA R S S STELLAR OIL.! It.ehould be used by every family because it is safe beyond a question. The primary purpose in the preparation of STELLAR OIL has been to make it Perfectly Safe, thus insuring the lives and prop erty of those who use it. Its present standard of SAFETYand BRILLIANCY will always be main Mined, for upon this the proprietor depends for sus taining the high reputation the STELLAR OIL new enjoys. To prevent the adulteration of this oil with the explosive compounds now,know under the name of kerosene, &c., &c.. it is put up for family use in five-gallon cans, each can being sealed and stamped with the trade-mark of the proprietor it cannot, therefore, be tampered with between the manufac turer and consumer. None is genuine without this trade-mark. • It is the duty and interest of all dealers and coh sumers of illuminating oil to use the STELLAR 'OIL only, because it alone id known to be safe and . reliable.

TEE MUSICIAN'S MARRIAGE After baying passed the summer in visi- ting the principal towns in Germany, the celebrated pianist. Liszt, arrived in Prague in October, 1846 The next day atter he came, this apartment was entered by a stranger—an old man whose appearance indicated misery and suffering.— The great musician reeeiced him with a.cor diality which he would no:, perhaps, have shown to a nobleman E ncouraged by his kindness, his visitor said: 'I come to see you, sir, as a brother. Ex cuse me if I take this title, notwithstanding the distance that separated us; but formerly 1 could boast some skill io playing on a pia no, and by giving instructions 1 gained a comfortable livelihood. Now lam old, fee ble, burdned with a large family, and desti• Lute of pupils. I live at Nuremburg, but I came to Prague to sleek "to recover the rem nant of a small property which belonged to my ancestors. Although nominally success ful, the expellee of a long litigation has more than swallowed up the trifling sum I recov ered To day I set out for home—penniless' 'And you have come to me? You have done well, and I thank you fothhis proof, of your esteem. To assist a brother professor is tome more than a dutp—it is a pleasure. Artiste should have their purse in common; and if fortune neglect south, in older to treat others better than they deserve, it only malos it more necessary 'to preserve the equilibrium by fraternal kindness. That's my system;. so don't speak of gratitude, for I feel that I only discharge a (100 As be uttered these generous words Liszt opened a drawer in his writing case, and started when be saw that his usual deposi tory-for his money contained but two ducates. Re summoned his servant. 1W here is the money?' he asked. 'There, air' replied the man, pointing to the open drawer. • 'There! Why there's scarcely anything.' 'I know it, au. If you please to remove. ber, I told you yesterday that the cash was nearly exhausted' . 'You see, my dear brother,' said Liszt, smiling, 'that for a moment I am DO rieher than you; but that does not trouble me. I have credit, and I can make ready money start from he keys of my piano. However, as you are in haste to leav,e Prague and re turn home, you shall not be delayed by my present want 'of -funds sayin ..he opened another drawer, and taking out a splendid medallion, gave it to the old man. ~There,' said he 'that will do. It was. a present to tneby the Etiiperer of Austria hie own 'portrait sat its diamonds. The paint ing is nothing ,:rmairkable, but the stones, ate tee. Take theta and dispose of them, and whatever they bring shalt be rare' The old man tried in vain to deolioe et aae alon we: goe!4 rich a gift. Liszt would not hear of a re fusel, and the poor man at length withdrew, after evoking "the choicest blessing of heaven on his generous benefactor. He then repaired to the shop of the .prin oipal jeweler in the.city, in order to sell the diamonds. Seeing- a miserly dressed man anxious to dispose of magnificent jewels, with whose value he was not acquainted, the snap. ter of the shop very naturally suspected his honesty; and while appearing to examine the diamonds with close attention, be whispered a few words in the oar of one of his assistants.' The latter went eat and speedly returned, accompanied by several soldiers of police, Who arrested the unhappy artist in spite of his earnest protestations of innocence. 'You must kit come to prison,' they said; 'afterwards you can give an explanation to the magistrate' The Kisoner wrote a few lines to his bene factor, Imploring assistance. Liszt hastened to the jeweler. 'Sir,' said he, 'you have caused the arrest of an innocent mac. Come with me inns°- , . _ ee-us-traverithn — reitsts - RIBe is the lawful owner of the jewels in question, for I gave them to him.' 'But, sir,' asked the merchant, 'who are yen?' . • 'My name is Liszt.' don't know any rich Man of that name. .'That may be; yet I'm tolerably well known.' 'Are you aware, sir, that those dialsonds re-worth-si-x-the:usaod flogius—t say, aboat five hundred guineas, or twe thousand trawled' • , 'So much the better Waite on whom I have bestowed them.' 'But in order to n - ttirsuch a present you must he very wealthy.' • • 'My sandal fortune consists of two ducats.' 'Then you are a magician. 'By no means; and yet, by just moving l i my fingers, I can obtain as much money as I wish! - - "'You must be a magician.' 'lf you choose, I'll disclose to you the magic 1 employ. Liszt had seen a pilule in the parlor be hind the shop. He opened it and ran his fingers over the keys,_then_seized_by_sudden_ inspiration, he improvised one of those soul touching symphonies peculiar to himself. As he sounded the first chord, a beautiful young girl entered the room. While the melody-continued-she -remained-speechless and immovable; - then, - as the last notedi-a away, she cried, with irrepressible eethnsi. asm Bravo, Liszt I 'tie wondrous!' 'Doss thou know him, then, my daughter? asked the jeweler. 'That is the filet time that I have had the pleasure of •seeiiing him or bearing him,' replied she; 'but I do know that none living save Liszt could draw such sounds from the piano.' Expressed with grace and modesty, by a young person of remarkable beauty, this ad miration could not fail to be more than fiat tering to the artist. • However, after. mak-, iog his acknowledgements, Liszt withdrew,' in order to deliver the prisoner, and was ate companied by the jeweler. Grieved at his mistake, the • wealthy mer. chant sought to repair it by inviting the musicians to supper. The honors of the ta ble were done by his amiable .daughter, who appeared no less touching at the generosity of Liszt then astonished at his talent. That night the musicians of the city sere naded their illustrious brother. The next day the nobles and moat distinguished inhab itants of Prague presented themselves at his door. • They entreated him to give concerts; leaving it to himself to fix any sum he pleas ed as a remuneration. Then the jeweler per ceived that talent, even in a pecuniary light, may be more precious than diamonds. Liszt continued to go to his house, and to the mer chant's great joy, he soon perceived that his daughter was the cause of these visits.— He began to love the company of the musi cian, and the girl, his only child, certainly did not hate it. .One morning, the jeweler, coming to the print' with German frankness said to Liszt : 'How do you like my daughter 'She is an angle: 'What do you think of marriage?' think so well of it that I have the great est inclination to try it.' 'What would yon say to a fortune of three million francs?' 'I would willingly accept it.' 'Well, we understaud. each daughter pleases you; yon please my daugh ter • her fortune is ready—be my son-in law.' 'With all my heart.' The marriage was celebrated the following week. And this, according to the chronicles of Prague, is a true account of the marriage 'of the great and great and good pianist, Liszt.. Was it a Glimpse of Heaven. From the Pittsburg Leader we copy the following extraordinary account of trance ex perience, the circumstances of which are so well attested that we feel warranted in thus placing it before the reader. 'On the 7th of November the Rev. Joseph Pershing, of the &Libor.; circuit,] began a series of meetings at Kelly's Station, on the West Pennsylvania Railroad, where the Me thodiete have a small unfinished church anti a leebltinociety. ‘During the second Sabbath evening of the meeting Mies Enteline.Tsylor, a. daugh- ter of Mr. John Taylor, of White's Station, a young lady of quiet and amiable disposi .tion, came forward for prayer. She remain ed at the altar for quite a length of time, ap peering to be calm re mind, atO : yet earnest ly and devoutly, looking for tbs_ mercy of God. About eine o'clock her prayer, seemed to be answered. . Her face wore en ,sxpres !ion of unusual . brightness as she, looking upward, repeated several times with distinct t emphasis, 'Oh that beautiful place over there. She heeame entirely uneonsoions, aitd carri ed to a home near by, it being thought in advisable be remove her to her father's, house which was about three miles distant. in this condition she remained for seven days, in the mean time taking no nourishment whatever. 'Oa. Tuesday site began to speak in a low voice, and for half an hour told of the scenes of another world, after which she remained silent for several hears. 'The first of whom she spoke were •two ministers; one was the Rev. A. H.' Thomas, of the Pittsburg Conference, the other wee. the Rev. Mr. White, of the Presbeterian Church. once the pastor of the church at Saltsburg. 'Many.expedients were used to restore , her to conscionsnesi kniong which were sing ling, and animated religious services, but all without the desired effect. On Friday her friends became very much alarmed ; owing to the opinions expressed by the physicians, that having been so long without food she would never be reetored. The effort was made to give her some nourishment but in vain. She was asked whether he Would ev er be able to rise, when she replied, "My Saviour has not yet told me.' At 'different times she had spoken of her Saviour as pres ent_with her as her guide and instructor.—• Shortly after this she told. them tha't her Sa• vimar bad just informed her that she might return'to 'earth again on Sibbath evening at nine o'olock. This statement occasioned a - joyful surpristrlo her anxious friends. The father said that should it thus come to . 08118, he would believe all she would say concern ing the future state. • 'On Saturday evening a large 'tempo) , of the neighbors had gathered to learn .the sequel. There was so clock in her room, nor•any way in which she could mark the flight of the hours, for her eyes bad remain ed closed from the first. At three minutes before nine o'clock she raised her right hand and waved — i .as t o give arewe to persons vanishing in the distance, sod then raising her left hand in like manner; and at precise ly nine o'clock she opened her eyes, spoke a griitituto her friends, began praising the Lord, and called upon those around to join in praise for His great mercy. When ask ed if she was hungry, she replied that she was not so in the least_;_that_she_had_been -fed with milk and honey , and, in deed, her strength had been so wonderfully renewed that it scorned that she bad been fed by an unknown hand. 'The original paper on which these state ments were written as they fell from her lips is in the hands of the Rev. J. Pershing. It is a most remarkable narration of events, artd a description of scenes that she—still avers were as real to her as any other in her whole life.' Little Things and Great Results. "A gnat choked rope Adrian to death, which caused wonderful ebanges in the nation and history of the whole world. A. counsellor of Rome was strangled by 'a . hair in the milk which he drank.

A destructive war between France and England was oceasioned by a quarrel between two boy•pricoes, The 'Grasshopper War e which took place about the time the Pilgrims came to New England in the flay flower, between two In dian tribes was brought about in this way,: An Indian wawa% with her little son, went to visit a friend belonging to another tribe. The little fellow caught a large grasshopper on the road and carried it with him. A lad from the other tribe wanted it, but he refus ed to give• it up. A quarrel ensued which soon drew the mothers and fathers into dO pute and ere long,the chiefs were engaged in a war which nearly exterminated one tribe. Several centuries ago, some soldiers of Modena carried away a bucket from a public well at Bologna, which was the cause of a long war, and the Kiag of Sardinia was im prisoned for twenty•two years, where he died. An English and French vessel had a quar rel about who should be supplied first from a certain well of water, which induced a war that cost one thousand lives.

Tin SORROW OF OTHERB.—There is so question that habitual cheerfulness is a great blessing. But when cheerful people are laud. ed, let it be remembered as a general thing that - they are no more to be commended for it than a person fer the possession of a pair of beautiful eyes, Cheerfulness is a matter of health and constitution. Au invalid or a nervous person—a very sensitive person, easily, affected by atmospheric and other in• finances—moot be uniformly oheorfal.— fle may do much towards endeavoring to be so, it is true, but it must be a thing of effort. Many people are cheerful because they are apathetic. The sorrows of others, net being their owe, are easy to bear, Wo do not wish to decry this social sunshine; but let us not forget that there are very sweet flow ers that flourish and give out perfume in the shade and at intervals.
