NEw- YoRK, Thursday, Aug. 20.
 The Board of Health have very properly adopted the only remaining measure ne- cessary to restore the economy of our city to its wonted state, by adopting the fol- lowing resolution, which was presented by Alderman Cobra:
 Resotued, That in future all reports of deaths be reported in the usual manner by the city inspector once in each week and that the reports made by this Board cease.

DEAR SIR-There is a rnnor in circula tion, that, on authority derived from me, the death of my much respected and la- mented friend, John Redmon, was an- nounced in the Gazette two days previous to his departure. In justice to myself, and the respect due to the memory of Mir. Red mon, most positively deny ever writing to any one going 10 or whilst at the Rock or sending any word whatsoever The whole story, so far as regards myself, is a malicious fabrication, and rests, with those who know me, where il should

GREAT NATURAL CURIOSITY.

On board the brig Charles, Capt. Dever- eux, of Boston, which arrived at New York last Sunday, from Buenos Ayres, was brought great natural curiosity, be- ing an amphibious male animal of the size of young heifer, and in appearance par taking ofthree species of animals, the el- ephant, the hog, and the Jack-ass. He was taken on one of the large rivers about one thousand miles north h-west of the city of Buenos Ayres, by some of the inhabi- tants of the country. Having been seen to leave the river and go upon land some distance, twenty meE on horseback diyi- ded themselves into four parties, to inter- cept him on his return. One party foll in with and succeeded in capturing him with the stlasso,o Ia moose of hide) with which those countryfnen are very expert. The animal IS remarkably swift and powerful. but quite docie. A letter from a gentle
 man many years resident in Buenos Ay- res and Brazil, represents this animal as very curious and rare, an inhabitant of the interior of South America. The own CT, who intends the animal for exhibition, IS man of large landed property, but at present unacquinted with the English lan- guage. The merchant to whom he is con signed, intends to have him brought in the brig to this city, where he will first be ex. hihted. The denomination given by the naturaiists to this animal. is the "Tapir.'

Jennings IS now on his way to meet his old comrades, and to fulfil his solemn vow sssiiiat thrilling moment Ii ii he, afterffty years separation. to meet a bro ther pioneer. who had fought, toiled and suffered together! Under such circum- stances, at such meeting, what crowd Of emotions must rush upon the memory what motley association of feelings must pass through tho mind To witness such a meeting, what pulse conid fail to beat. what heart to throb, what tongue to falter with unutterable joy It will be like the soldiers of MiItiades meeting upon the plains of Marathon 10 revisit the field of their glory.
 Capt. Jennings is now upwards of ninety years ofage, quite active and unimpaired III intellect. He was a soldier in the [ rench and Indian war before the Ameri- can revolution, and was in the battle of the Great Canawa, commanded on the American side by Col. Lewis. Few men III our land have lived to see their country triumph in three successive and important wars over the lawless soldiery of foreign enemy.

Jackson maJority on Joint ballot, ' Antmasonic 2 1he above statement includes old and new members, and 1t will be recollected that only ten Senators are annually elect ed. Of these ten, the returns show six JacksoniaDs. Last year the Senate stood , Clay 21, Jackson 9. The House of Re- personalities was nearly balanced, or possibly majority of one or two for Clay, leaving the majority for Clay on joint bal lot at least B votes. The tables are now turned, and show, compared with last year, joss of Clay strength on joint bai- lot equal to twenty votes. Add this to the election of Breathitt in Kentucky, and Mir. CIay's gain in the west will show but poor prospect for his friends elsewhere.

 The Plague ef Fiery serpents.-The fol loving is an extract of a letter, dated Bassorah, the 24th August, 1881, and re- ceived in Calcutta by an American gentle man :-ss almost every country in these regions of the globe has been visited by a dreadful visitation of Providence. You must have been long before this, informed of the many calamities that have befailen the devoted city of Bagdad, and the pla- ces adjacent to 1t. News have also been received from the adjacent city of Hama dan, CT the ancient Echantana, ofthc oc- eurrence of another natural calamity in .hat place. The city is described to be literally infested with a species of fiery serpents, tho bite of which is followed by immediate madness, which in the course of a very short timelte rminates in the death of the sufferer. The streets of the town are said to be choaked with dead bodies, which are fed upon by dogs and jackals The inhabitants areseized with conster- nation and trepidation, not knowing where to fly from the Angel of the Almighty.

 Dr. tsElbel Smith, of Paris, says, have myself made many antopsies. In the body, which was cold as marble while animated by the immortal spirit, there is. after death, a disengagement of heat that diffuses a genial warmth l2 Or l5 hours after the extinction of life. Dissection discovers many of the effects of the disease, but as usual leaves great deal unknown. The es- sential and invariable symptom IS of a draining of the system Of it's fluids, by means of the mucus membrane of the alimentary eanai-wthou some of the usual and important phenomena of in- fammation. In many of the severest cases, there is pain from great pres sure in the abdomen. AIvine dischar- ges are usually attended with TO pain sohatever-also tenesmus-often with no sensation. Seemingly, this does not arise from a want of sensbiiity, for in other respects, that of coldness of his limbs for example, the patient is sen- sble of it in the same manner as when in health. The tormenting thirst, how ever, while the mouth is cool and moist, has. doubtless an important come ..ion with the pathological state of the sto- mach.

STATE OF EURopE.-The Editor of the Albany Daily Advertiserthusg graph ically groups the shadows of coming events: Austria has an immense army in the field. Russia an immense force ready 10 march upon the Rhine, and d fleet of42 sail ready forsea. Belgium and Holland are both armed for battle. England has large squadron, for pruc- tice, in the North Seas. A large num- Der of National Guard has been called out in France, to form new army The Emperor of Russia says, "Christ- mas dinners will be eaten by some peo- pie with long faces" A NapoIeonite has said, "there will be another march to Paris.'' Lord Durham has gone to Copenhagen, to gain the alliance of the Danes. The Dutch ambassador has very unexpectedly left England, and Joseph Bonaparte as suddenly departed for that country. The Grey ministry arc evidently out of favor with the Court; and the French ministry are about adopting Souit's project of mo- ving the French army towards the iron tiers. Truly, Mr. Canning's war of opinion seems to be near at hand.

 1he Pirates.--1t will be recollected by our readers, that few days since, we published an extract fromthc Frank lin Republican, stating that supicions were entertained, ofpiracy having been committed on the sea, near the Atta- kapas coast. Itnow appears from the same paper, that four individuals have been arrested on Brushy Island, and S240O Mexican coin found in their pos session. One of the men stated on ex- animation, that the money was brought to the Island by Frencilman, who spoke English so imperfectly as scarce ly to be understood, and who said he had been employed to carry family from Mobile 10 the Spanish country, where he remained, and continued tra- ding untilh had amassed the money he had with him. He brought to the Isl and seven sacks, one of which, says the Republican, appears to be marked TIT with the figures 452. It is supposed this money was taken from the schooner Ajax. The seven sacks, says the edit or, must have originally contained a. bout S20,000. The parties were to be examined the next dai.
