The left upper eyelid was enormous

the upper eyelid, the posterior extre-

assistance having been procured,
bventy zagUe of the common bne bot

Lightning Comductors.

Ii is matter OF much regret. that regardless
OF physical laws and established principles in
electrical science. buildings are daily being
supplied with lightning conductors, which, so
far from afording protective influence, have
direct tendency 10 produce The very danger
that is their professed object 10 avert In The
majority of cases, the rod does not project the
requisite distance above the top of the building,
and in 100 many instances it has direct me-
tallc communication with the walls. Some
times il terminates abruptly at the bottom OF
the building and not unfrequently it is inef1i-
cienlly pointed al its upper extremity. We
mention these as general defects they are OBJ
serrable in some form in al least one half the
conductors now in use. The consequences
are TOO often fatal: buildings thus supplied are
subject to imminen, danger, from which, inde-
pendent OF any conductor, they would be COM
paraiyeIy free.

A Monster.

The Portland Tribune says =
Some time since we gave an account
of a man who had been confined in
our workhouse for nearly forty years.
He died short time since at the age
of about seventy. He was deaf,
dumb, and blind, and for more than
thirty-nine years had been confined in
the cells of the house, and during this
time no communication with a single
individual, and lived more like a beast
than a human being. He slept on
nothing but hard boards, and wore
only shirt and pantaloons. His food
was daily handed him, when he
would rise, take it and eat, and then
return to his board, where he lay
curled up till. another meal was
brought in. His name was Mayo.
In this manner he lived, occupying
but two cells, one in the cellar in
winter, and another in an outhouse in
summer, for this long period. Pre-
viously to his confinement in the
poorhouse, he was for five years a
tenant of the county Jail. 1t is said
that he was bright and active when a
child, but severe sickness destroyed
his speech and hearing. Possessing
violent temper, and depraved with
al, he committed various crimes,
which induced his friends to confne
him. He once set fire to his fathers
house. When taken to jail, his anger
was so intense, that he tore out his
eyes with his own hands, and thus
for forty years was deaf, dumb, and
blind.

is frequently the case that beans ale injurned
by wet before harvest; or, by being slowed
away damp, becoming mouidy and unfit for
use. In this condition they are often sold for
one half their value, which, we consider equal
TO the best Of corn in any state. The vines and
pods of beans are also an excellent food for the

Tobacco Crop fn Virginia.

The Richmond Compiler says the opinion is
very general, that The Tobacco crop must be a
short one in that State. The cool spring
brought down the insects upon the young
plants, and so destructive have they been, that
there is an almost unprecedented scarcity of
plants Over this cause there is no triumph

Gapes i'm Chickens.

A writer in the Farmers Cabinet, says pos
itiveIy that The gapes in chickens, which cause
so many to die, are occasioned by worms in
the windpipe; and that if The pOullerer is
pleased 10 take feather, strip the'sides all of
except small tuft at the end, dip this in spir-
its of turpenline, ca,ch the chicken, open It's
mouth and just touch this turpenline TO the
mouth of the windpipe, which may easily be
seen at the top of the tongue and near lis roots,
the worms will almost instantly die, and the
chicken as Instantly recover. He says there is
no danger TO the chicken from this course.

JOB PRINTING.

The following exquisite li,tle gem Of poetry
was written fOr a recent celebration in Boston
by NJ, II. Welherbee, hard-working stone
cutter:
Gods spirit smiles in fow'rs,
And in soft summer show'rs,
He sends his love.
Each dew-drop speaks His praise,
And bubbIing fount displays,
In all their lucid rays,
Light from above.
The Tiny vines that creep
Along the ravines steep
Obey His nod
The golden orb Of day,
And oceans created spray
To Him due homage pay
Creations God.
Thus Friendship wears its bloom,
And smiles beyond The tomb,
In lis own light.
o may that LOUe be ours,
Which gilds LIES darkest hours,
Cheering like smiling how'rs,
Hopes deepest night.

The Fisheries on Albermarle Sound,
have all stopped operations, or hung

fishermen, after a very successful
season. At one of the fisheries, we
understand 100000 of herring and
100000 shad have beentaken. There
are seven or eight others on the
Sound that do equally as good busi-
ness, besides some half dozen or more
River fisheries. The whole amount
of herring taken, probably will not be
short of ten millions. Sen.
