ANOTHER WONDERFUL CURE!

Last August a year, caught violent cold, in
consequence of getting wet in shower Of ram
circumstance so common gave me no immediate
concern, supposing that should soon get rid Of H.
On the contrary, however, daily grew worse;
violent cough set in, then pain in my breast and
between my shoulders. / now suffered great OPP
preston from the great secretion ofpuruent mat
ter in my lungs. became greatly alarmed ana
my friends considered my situation extremely
critical, the more so as loss OF aPPetite, heeuc
fever, and night sweats rendered me as weak as
child, and at night the sweat literally poured OIL
me! This was my condition when commenced
using "Thomson's Compound Syrup Of Tar and
Wood Naphtha." procured one bottle and ex-
psrienced so much benefit that resolved to con-
tinue It. II is now six months since ceased using
the medicine and the cure remains perfect i
firmly believe this medicine is far superior to
every other remedy for Consumption of the Lungs.

AUCTION OF LADiEs.-An suction of un- married ladies used to take place annually m Babyion.--''ln every district" says ihe his- ioIian, ''they assembled on certain day of every year, ali the yirgius of marriageable age.n The most beautiful were frs, put up, and the man who bid the largest sum of mon ey gained possession of her The second in personal appearance followed, and the bid- ders grati6ed themselves with handsome wives according to the depth of their pur- ses. But alas il seems there were in Baby lon some ladies for which no money was likely to be offered, yet these were also dis posed of, SO prevident were the Babyionians. .'w hen all the beautiful virgins" says the historian, 'swere sold, the crier ordered the most deformed to stand up, and after he had openly demanded who would marry her with small sam, she was a, length adiadged to the man who would be satisfied with the least; in this manner the money arising from the sale of the handsome, served ss a portion to those who were either of disagreeable looks, or that had any other imperieetion, This custom prevailed about five hundred years be- fore Christ"

JALArA, MEAlco, .May 20, ls47.

We are still without farther positive news from Gen. Worth, and it is now almost cer- tain that his despatches have been cut of. He would hardly enter so rich and populoas a city as is Puebla without sending an off, ciar account of it 10 Gen. Scott-at least such IS the impression.
 The Mexicans here have news from the city of Mexico which we cannot get hold of, their own couriers doubtless running regular ly. One of them told me last night that fif- teen bat,allions of the National Guard have been thoroughly organized a. the capital, that Notifications are already m process of construction al or near Rio Frio. that the beiis have been rui tip into cannon, and that the owners of an iron foundry at ,he city of Mexico, Englishmen, have been compelled to cast balls on the promise of remuneration hereafter. Understand, distinctly, that get all this from Mexican, and that it must be taken with allowances, but that there is now prospect ef another fight, and hard one, is considered certain by many. To my thinking it will depend much upon the re- suit of the election of President, news of which has not as yet reached the Americans here. If Herrera has been chosen, and there certainly was party in his favor, If may be put down as a guaranty that peace measures will prevail. On the other hand, if Santa Anna has been elected, or friend of his, the struggle may be protracied and another stand made this side of the capital Its now certain that Santa Anna was not al the city of Mexi co to control the late election in person, al though his approach with an armed force may have had some effect upon ,he States of Puebla and Mexico.
 The four individuals spoke of yesterday as having been guilty of robery, received a portion of their sentence last evening and the rest this morning, 4 most disgracsful figure did they cut, marching through the streets with their heads shaved, the word aro5ber'' pinned upon their backs, and a band of mu- sic playing the .'Rogue's Marchn immediate. ly in their rear Their names were Henry Reed, Hugh Duane and Benj. Potter, of the 4th Artillery, and D F. Revaiou., of the 2d Pennsylvania Volunieers. The latter was found guilty of horse-stealine; the three for mer of breaking twice into the house ofthe same Mexican. and with threats and violence robbing him of every thing he possessed. Hard and degrading as was their punishment, every one says 1t was deserved
