@The celebrated DR.. Sanderson, the
blind mathematical professor of Cam
bridge, being in avery large company, OBJ
served, without any hesitation or inquiry,
that a lady who had just left the room,
and whom he did 10 know, had very fine
teeth. As this was really the case, he was
questioned as to what means he employed
in making the discovery. II have no rea-
son to think the lady a fool" said the
doctor, "and have given the only reason
she could have for keeping herself in a
continual laugh for an hour"

The DEVICE OF A SwrNDLER.-New
York has been blessed with "confdence
man." a fellow genteely dressed, who
stopped unsophisticated people in the
street, and playful!y put the question:
care you really disposed to put any con-
fidence in me!" The person thus ac>
costcd would sometimes answer eyes,"
through the impudence of the thing would
seem to call for a most energetic negetive
given by the toe of the boot. "Well thcn,'
continues the! ':confdence man, "just
lend me your watch till to-morrow."
Strange as it may seem, the fellow has
found no less than five verdant individuals
from whom he has gotten a gold WATCH
He has been arrested, and was found to
be an old convict, Wm. Thompson, alais
Williams, and will oe sent to prison.

~How pleasant it must be says, the
Boston Post, for Cassius M: Clay to read
the eulogies, &C., published in the Wes-
tern papers, which have supposed the
first news, reporting his death to be true.
One lonrishing paper says he was a
'wholesouled generous fellow-of fine
talents, but exceedingly head|ong and
reckless when excited. Poor fellow! he
deserved a better end!'

IA @ssThis rebuttering testimony that
we read of in the COURTS" said Mrs. Par
tington, .:must be to make it 60 down
easier; the same way that they embezzle
bibles with picturs and make sugar plums
of rhubarb: How much better it would
be if we could receive the truth without
rebuttering it. Don't you think so, sir3'
continued she, accosting a counsellor pre-
sent :sCertainly, madam, replied he
with dignity, "and consider the high price
of butter, too" This was a remark that
fired a train to a magazine of eloquence
on domestic economy, and the old lady
warmly espoused the doctrine Of lo~
ffare.

~Mr: Emerson says that no man has
an original idea after he is thirty. Rather
a discouraging idea this in these days Of
progress. Maria Edgeworth, with a
fuller measure of gratitude to Heaven for
its intellectual as we'll as its other bounties,
wrote a few weeks since, shortly before
her death, "Our pleasures in literature do
not, l think, decrease with age. Last first
of January was my eighty.second births
day, and l think that from books l had
as much enjoyment last year as I ever
had in any year in my life"

@The Washington Union, noticing
the removal of some of its friends from
office, says that "the places which know
them shall know them no MORE"
This very pathetic remark appears to
be a pretty full admission that the Union
has no expectation of its party to power,
for, in that case it is very naturally to be
SUPP osed that the places which have
known the poor fellows in question nigh,
knew them again.-LouisviM Journal.

San Francisco, dated March 9th, which
states that the latter had amassed $4,000

Not Guihy.--A lawyer in a neighbour

Not Guiity.-A lawyer in a neighbour
ing parish, says the Pic, celebrated for
his talent and shrewdness, was applied to
by a criminal to defend him for the COM
mission of a fragrant offence, punishable
with Imprisonment for life. The lawyer
told his client that he feared his ingenuity
could not save him; that the facts were too
Main. "But," said he, "as a last resort,
get your friends tolhave a horse ready near
the courthouse door-and if the jury fine
you guilty, you must break for it."
The trial came on, the case was argued
and the prisoner; getting as far from the
seat of justice as he could, anxiously
awaited his fate. The jury came in: and
the prisoner prepared to hear his DOOM
The verdict was "not guilty,"bu the FORE
mar of the jury pronouncing the word not
almost in a whisper, the word guilty only
reached the prisoners ear. With one
bound he cleared the bar, rushed out of
the court house, mounted the horse, which
he put for the best of his speed, and has
never since been heard of-leaving the
lawyer to whistle for his fee, and 'doing''
his friends out of a first rate saddle nag.

Walter Savage Landor, whose STYLE
has lost nothing by age OF its old select
ness and vigor, keeps up a running fire
through the press on the politics and
politicians of Europe: One of his last
letters is addressed to the new Hunga-
liam leader, Kossuth. In it he thus chas
racterizes his own countrymen. 1t
opens:
"To General Kossuth: General, there
are few who have the privilege to adj
dress you but | am of the number; for be-
fore you were born I was an advocate,
however feeble, of that sacred cause which
you are now the foremost in defending.
Imminent was the peril of fine and inns
prisonment, and certain the loss of friends
and fortune. I disregarded and defied the
worst. Do not trample on this paper
for being written by an Englishman. We
are not all of us %jugglers and dupes,
though we are most of US the legitimate
children of those who crowded to see a
conjuror leap into a quart-bottle. If we
have had our Wilkeses and Burdetts, our
Wilson's aud Broughans, we have also
had our Romifiies and our Bontmas. In
one house we have still a Clarendon, in
the other a Wordsworth. Be amused but
never indignant, at the spectacle of our
public men; a restlessness without activity,
at strides without progress, pelted from
below by petulence without wit. A wi
der and fairer scene is lying now before
you; a scene of your own creation, under
the guidance and influence of Almighty
God. Merciful and just by nature, and
enlightened, as the powerful of intellect
always are, by the continuous lamps deli
vered in succession from past and passing
ages, you will find them shine clearer by
contraction of space and adaptation to cir
cumstances. You have swept away the
rotten house of Hapsburg."

THE best remedy ever yet discovered
Il for all kinds of WORMS. 1t mo-. only destroys
Worms and invigorates the whole system. bat it
dlssolves and carries of the superabundant slime of
mucus, so prevalent in the stomach and bowels of
children, more especially of those in bad health
The mucus forms the bed or nest in which Worms
produce their young, and by removing it, it is inn
possible for worms to remain in the body. 1t is
harmless in its effects on the system and the health
of the patient is always improved by its use, even
when no worms are discovered; the medicine being
palatable, no child will refuse to take it, not even
the most delicate. .
