SUDDEN INTERRUPTION OF LADY's TOILET
A day or two since, lady living on Biddle
street, between Tenth and Eleventh, was en-
gagged before her mirror in going through her
toilet exercises, when the glass suddenly receded
from her, as the entire front wall Of the build
ing parted company with its neighbors, and
with a tremendous crash fell into the street.
The lady, in utter astonishment at the sudden
ness Of the motion, was left standing in disha-
billie, though, singularly enough, entirely unin-
jured. In consequence of the recent grading of
the street, the earth beneath the wall had been
partially removed, and its sudden giving way
was the cause Of the accident.-.S, Louis Int,

SCHOOLS AND AGRICULTURAL SOCIETIES
MRssRs. EDIToRs: Charles b. Calvert, esq,
President of the Maryland Agricultural Society,
authorizes me to say that premiums will be
offered for school products exhibited at the next
annual Fair. of the Society. An officer of the
State Agricultural Society of Virginia also
stated that he should call attention to the same
subject for their exhibitions. The juvenile spe-
cimens proposed to be exhibited are drawings,
mechanism, minerals and other productions,
both of nature and art. The proposal is no
less interesting to families than to schools No
schools or families are more Interested in this
proposal than at the heart of the nation. Once
let this kind of light go out from this grand
concentrating and rndiating point, not to Mary
land and Virginia merely, but to the whole
country-indeed to all countries--and by the
rays OF intellectual and moral light, both re-
fected and radiated back, this central point Of
our nation would indeed be the great centre of
light for the whole world-.iust as it should be.
