concealed mechanism, the pressure of the
body on the bed Immediately produces some
of the most delicious notes of AubeI,s which

mead OF the bed is dial plate, on which they
can indicate, by hand, the hour at which

'ne appointed hour this marvellous bed will
play a march or quickstep by Spotiui,, with
an accompaniment of drums and cymbals,
which make noise loud enough to awaken
even the sleeping beauty in the wood. This
bed must prove an invaluable.iuyen,ion. alike
for those who sleep too little and those who

nine years Mr.. o. had mastered several

oped an extraordinary mathematical genius,
when his attention was turned TO the natural
sciences. Although only % years OF age

THIS Pen received the highest premium
at The last Fair OF the American Institute,

Of Pemmansbip in the country, to be infinitely
superior TO any Gold Pen ever before intro
enced to the American public. These pens
are indestructible except by actual violence
no ink will injure them-retain their elasici-
ty, and the peculiar shape ofthe nibs, (which
was first introduced by Bagley) makes it
more pleasant TO use, renders it less liable TO
