The death Of Major NOAH, of New York, will
sketch worthy of the truly amiable qualities of
one of the best men who illustrate the munich
pal history Of the great and patriotic city Of
New York. Major Noah was no ordinary man !;
for, to mind immensely elevated above the
stupid prejudices that becloud and bewilder so
many good men, he added the interesting sim
plicity of manners and kindness Of heart that
distinguished the golden age Of the human fam
lily. More than twenty-five years ago q friend
of mine, who was well acquainted with Major
Noah, stated to me, that once upon time this
worthy Jew was elected sheriff Of the city and
county of New York. In those days it was the
custom to put a fKan who owed four dollars,
and had not the means to pay it, in jail there
as one Of the judges beautifully expresses it, to
let him die. The Fourth of July came round,
and the Jail was filed with debtors, the victims
Of this blessed policy. Major Noah set all the
prison doors wide open, and allowed every man
to take up his bed and walk. He was plenti-
fully harassed by kind creditors for this act
of benevolence, but made out to survive the in
Fiction; and the whole proceeding so power
fully arrested the attention of the community,
that by general consent Imprisonment for debt,
and its delightful consequences and adjuncts,
were expunged from the statute book. For this
act alone his memory deserves the eternal mon
ument Of brass spoken of by Horace. Major
Noah was not exactly

SENSIBLE HoRsEs.--Laing, in his Travels in
Norway, says that the horses in that country
have very sensible way Of taking their food.
Instead of swilling themselves with pailful of
water at draught, no doubt from the fear of
not getting any again, and then over-gorging
themselves with dry food for the same reason,
they have bucket of water put down beside
their allowance Of hay. 1t is amusing to see
with what relish they take sip of the one and
a mouthful of the other, alternately, sometimes
only moistening their mouths as rational being
would do while eating q dinner Of such dry
food A broken-winded horse is scarcely ever
seen in Norway.

Boar ON NEW PRINCIPLE.-The Debats
states that there has been constructed at the
establishment of Creuzot a boat on new sys-
tenn, which realizes the great problem of sub
marine navigation. The size Of the boat and
the machines are such, that it will not be con-
fined to the execution of works under water,
such rs have taken place recently at Brest, and
in the Seine, at Paris. The new boat is to
come by the river from Creuzot to Paris, and is
to proceed to Calais by means of its own en-
gines, which are on the screw principle. At
Calais it is to be plunged under water, and is
to proceed under water) to Dover, where it is
to ascend the Thames TO London, to figure in
the great exhibition. Gaiignan's Messenger.

The DEATH or THE JUsT.-Glancing over an
old novel, the other day, we came upon the fol
lowing passage, which we think is true, musi-
cal, and beautiful:
Sublime are the words "Blessed are the
dead who die in the Lord" Would it be ire
igious to say, /" Happy are the dead who die
beloved?" Their fond and ardent hearts had
never been chilled by the whitening hand of in
fidelity and ingratitude. They died in an ec-
static dream ofperfect bliss on earth, and never
were awakened to the worlds mockmg reali-
ties They died when they felt and believed
in their heart of hearts that they were dearly
beloyed--could not be loved more deeply with
that conviction, death in worldly acceptation
can never be untimey. Probably they died
still sufficiently animated by latent, lingering
spark Of life, to press the hand that was 80
often linked in mutual pressure in happy days
to feel the burning tear of anguish drop on the
pale cheek--to hear the sad, the awful last
word adieu!--an expression that habit has rem
dered trivial but which bears with it in the
tenderest soictude the most hallowed meaning,
since in pronouncing it, we leave all that we
cherish under the protection and safeguard Of
God. esse - ..0...

PRINCIPAL CAUSES OF DEcAYED TEETH.-1st,
Uncleanliness. I'd, Taking food or drink into
the mouth of an unnatural temperature. Sd,
The abuse of acids. 4th, The use of pearlash
or saleratus in bread or other food. 9th, Fe-
vers and many kinds of medicine. 1t is useless
to travel the world over to find pure air, if the
breath is contaminated by diseased teeth and
gums. The loss of the teeth causes imperfect
masticati9n consequently, swallowing the food
in chunks causes dyspepsia or painful digestion.
The teeth should be cleansed by picking and
brushing, after eating most kinds of food now
used in civilized society Chewing tobacco
wears away or destroys the crowns of the teeth
Nature designed that the teeth should be per-
feet, like the fingers and doubtless they would
be- if they were cleansed as often. If people
would usually take as much pains to clean
the inside of their faces for their own health
and comfort as they do the outside, to crafty
the sight of others, they would have better
and less decayed teeth.
/ All kinds of washes advertised to dissolve or
remove the tartar of the teeth are either igno-
rant or base impositions upon the public. 1t
should be carefully removed by instruments de-
signed and suitable for the purpose and after
wards kept off by toothbrush and suitable
dentifrice. Filing teeth, or repairing them, is
of essential importance, and from which much
beneht Will be derived, IL properly done, anu at
a suitable time. When the natural teeth are
gone, artificial teeth are often useful in eating,
and very useful in speaking, and have ten
dency to lengthen life, as they relieve the lungs
of much unnatural e1ertion, which produces
irritation, and consequently languor. In gen.
eral people do not allow themselves time, to
clean their teeth, and it is lamentable that the
health and comfort of many are sacrificed to
their business, OF to acquire unnecessary wealth.
Most operations on the teeth, except extraction,
are not necessarily painful.

BoYAPARTE FAMILY.-Iti is said that this family
are preparing to prosecute claim Of IL, 000, 900
Of francs against France. The Emperor Ma
poleon, in the days Of his imperial supremacy,
appropriated TO his use twelve millions of pro-
perty, Of which he was despoiled by Louis 18th.
The President Of France has consulted eminent
counsel, and obtained favorable opinions.
Besides this claim, Prince Lucien Murat, cou-
sin of the French President, claims the Palace
of the Elysee, forest near Paris, and large
sum of money This real estate was present
to his father by the Emperor, and the money is
claimed rs an indemnity for estates at Naples,
taken from his father Eminent lawyers have
also given favorable opinions in this case.
