"Some few nights since was awakened
by scratching at the back door ofmy bed
room. Knowing at once it was tavorte
dog, which kept in the yard, and which,
as / thought, was anxious to take privi-
ledge seldom granted, gaining admittance,
bude him begone. The moment he heard
INV voice he commenced scratching louder
and stronger, and when spoke to him a
gain, began bowling. This being so unu-
sual, got up TO see if any thing was really
the matter; but before my intention was ex-
ecuted the dog had gnuwedla hole sufficient
ly large where the doors (summer doors)
came together, to admit his paw, when he
opened the door, which had not, as usual
been bolted on the inside. Upon his gain-
ing admttance he instantly, with his teeth,
pulled out the musquito bar, whichw was tuck
ed in, and jumped upon the bed. pushed
him off, but he Immediately came back,
caught me by the skirt of my nightgown,
and pulled me towards the door. pushed
it open and there preceived small blaze.
Upon examination and inquiry, found that,
in making up the coal fire for the night, the
ashes and lighted cinders had been thrown
upon the edge of the plank which had been
laid from the back part Of the kitchen. The
blaze was very small, and in all probability
would have gone out of itself; still there
was enough to occasion uneasiness in the
mind of the dog, and he could not rest un-
til lie had warned me of the danger"

RIVER OsAGE.-This river, which twen-
ty years ago was deemed to be in exclusive
possession of the snvages, is now boldered
by thriving settlements. 1t empties into
the Missouri some hundreds of miles from
the Mississippi, and is not remote from the
western boundry of the State of Missouri.
A steamboat plies regularly between the
Usage and the settlements near the mouths
of the Missouri, and the country is rapidly
filling with farmers. The current of emml-
grafton tends that way, and in the course OF
twenty years, the lands watered by the Os-
age will be as thickly settled, and as produc-
tive as any other portion Of the mighty
west. --Louisidnian.

Sage, which is vegetable production of
China, gathered by the natives and taken in
iunks or boats to Singapore, where it is made
into a shape fit for shipment, is beginning to
be used by the bakers of London and Edinbu'g
as an ingredient of bread. The article has
been long known to medical gentlemen as pos.
sessing nutricious qualities, and has in many
instances been prescribed in cases of ini;ges.
ton Of the bread which is made OF It, DR..
Andrew Combe, of Edinburgh states that it
is as light, digestible, and palatable as any
bread he ever tasted, and entirely free from
the least tendency to sourness, even at the end
of four days of mid weather, which would not
have been the case with the ordinary bread at
the end of forty.eight hours" He also observes
..it being easy Of digestion in the stomach,
affords a presumption that it will be well
auted to the bowels ALSO" 1t appears the
bread in question is composed of three fourths
of wheat -four and one fourth of fine sage,
which enables the baker to make much bet
ter loaf at cheaper rate. The person w:1o
first introduced it, after it's quality had born
the test of public opinion, had upwards of five
thousand applications in one day, and the
Edinburgh papers are now filed with adve',
