CURIOUS COINCIDENCE.—It is curious coincidence that
three men who have each in turn held the helm of affairs
in France, and exercised no small influence over her
destinies, now inhabit the same street in Paris. Guizot,
Mole, and Lamartine have each town residences in the
Rue de la Ville l'llveque. The latter of these celebri-
ties has just quitted the tumult of the capiial for the
quietude of his chateau of St. Point, near Macon,
where he intends staying until he has completed hi.

CURE FOR SEA SIORNESS.—A correspondent of a
contemporary writes :—" Having noticed in the public
journals a recent instance of death from sea sickness, un-
der very melancholy circumstances, I am induced to
hope that the mention of a remedy, which was entirely
successful in a case which came under my own observa-
tion, may be useful to other sufferers from this distressing
malady., A lady of my acquaintance was landed at
the Cape of Good Hope, on her voyage home from
India, in such a deplorable state of debility and ex-
haustion from sea sickness, that she was obliged to be
carried into the house by men, and would certainly have
died if the ship had been a week longer at sea. The
danger in renewing the voyage in such circumstances was
great, but a simple misfortune enabled her to continue it,
and to reach England in perfect health. A swinging
cot was constructed, with a top or frame over it,
with curtains, so ms effectually to screen the deck
overhead, and other parts of the vessel, from the view
of the recumbent invalid. The motion of the ship was
thus rendered imperceptible, a,ndthe invalid being relieved
from the dizzying efirect of the vessel appearing to roll
me way and the cot the other, no longer felt any nausea
or inconvenience. billie soon gained sufficient strength
to leave her cot for /holt periods, except in bad weather,
and the confinement,, such as it was, was a trifle com-
pared to that which] iersons who have lost, or dislocated,
limbs are compelled •to endure, in pain, for months. At
all events, life was i saved, and health restored, by this
simple means.
