Disease Of tie Brain.-Dr. Junod, of Paris,
is anxious to visit England, to introduce into
practice his invention Of the exhausted ar-boot
for diseases of the brain. He places large
metallic tube upon the leg, which is, says the
Columbia Banner, exactly in the shape of a
boot, and by an apparatus connected with it he
gradually and completely exhausts it of air, the
consequence of which is, the limb swells enor-
mously, becoming three times the ordinary size;
there is an immense quantity of blood thus de-
termined to the lower extremity, whose capilla-
ry vessels become much distended, and relief is
thus given to the overloaded sangueous system
elsewhere, which is oftentimes permanent; as
the limb only unlOads itself from the humors
driven into it; there is no reaction to be feared
the objection that first presents itself is the
probability of its giving rise to varicose veins,
but, continues the Banner, from the numerous
experiments that have been tried it would APP
pear to offer resource where there was great
determination of arterial blood to the head, or
where there is no venous retardation.

There is truth, and there is poetry, too, in the
following paragraph, written by some one who
know more than little of human heart, and
of the differences between the dreams and the
realities of life:
THE DREAM OF LIFE.-How few of US at the
close of life can say, 81 have filed and occupied
the position to which l looked forward VIXEN a
boy!" In the onward progress of life, how Of
ten, in some stray moment of thought and re
Election, do we find ourselves inquiring, "ls
this as | hoped, d,-have l enacted my dream?
And the answer is invarbly-No! We look
forward in childhood-and only look forward
without reflection. We build gorgeous pal
aces, we sketch a career Of life all gold and
sunshine,-what are they, where are they when
years sober US?

The New Orleans papers speak highly OF
specimens of hemp made from the fibers of the
okra, or "gumbo" plant. They state that the
merit of this hemp consits in the cheapness of
its culture, the abundance of the raw materi-
al, the quickness with which it grows, giving,
they understand, three crops a year, its supe-
rior yield to the acre, of five times as much as
the Kentucky hemp, its more durable quail
ties in water or damp than any other hemp,
and its easy manufacture into bagging. It's sta
ted that the article can be produced at the
North as we'll as the South, though not so pro-
fusely and that it will supersede all other sorts
of hemp in the manufacture of bagging.

SMALL HORSEs.-The arguments may all
be in favor of great SIZE but the facts are all the
other way. Large horses are more liable to STUN
bic, and to be lame, than those of middle size.
They are clumsy, and cannot fill themselves SO
quick.
Overgrown animals, of all descriptions are
less useful in most kinds of business, and less
hardy than those of smaller size. If theory is
so restored to in order to determine such ques-
tions, we suggest to the lovers of overgrown
animals, the following: The largest of any
class is an unnatural growth. They have risen
above the usual mark, and il coasts more to
keep them in that position, that it would were
they more on a level with their species.
Follow nature" is rule not to be forgot
ten Dy farmers. Large men are not the best
for business. Large cows are not the best for
milk. Large oxen are not the best for tavel-
ling. Large hogs are not the best to fatteh
and large hens are not the best TO lay eggs.
Extremes are to be avoided. We want well
formed animals, rather than such as have large
bones. Odd as it may seem to the theoriSt,
short legged animals invariably prove to be
better travellers than any. Short legged sol
diers are better on march, and the officers say
they endure hardships longer than those of lon
ger limbs.
On choosing a horse take care by all means
that his hind legs are short. II they are long,
and split apart like a pairo of dividers, never
inquire the price of the horse dealer; run for
your life, and make ne offer lest you be taken
up.
Horses that are snug built are not always
tLSt trayeers Il Is 10 cas-; mater To select
tough horses are not fast on the road. The
fastest trotters are not always made for very hard
seryice.-Nc3r York Farmer

lRIsHMES IF THE REvOLUTToE.--It is an IN
teresting fact to notice the extent of the partic
/ ipation of Irishmen in the revolutionary strug-
| gle, and the assistance they rendered in that
great contest for civil liberty. Irishmen are
natural enemies of oppression, and the natural
/ friends and allies of freedom. Their own beau
tful islands lies in sad and sorrowiul subsection,
but thousands of gallant hearts have ceased to
beat, in earnest and Intellectual struggles to re-
deem it from the thrald0m Of monarchical
power.
The Declaration of American independence
was signed by ffty-six persons, nine of whom
(ncluding Charles Thompson, Secretary Of Con-
gress,) were of Irish origin.
Mathew Thornton, born in ireland in TIA,
signed it for New Hampshire. He was after
wards Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, and
died June 24th 1903.
James Smith, who signed for Pennsylvania
was born in Ireland, in l7l3, and died in 1906.
George Taylor a sgner from the same State
was born in Ireland. in l7lG, so poor that his
services were sold on his arrival to pay the ex-
penses of his passage out. He died at Ea5tOn
Penn, Febuarv 23d, 1857.
George Read, of Delaware, was the son of
Irish parents, one of the authors of the Const-
tuition of Deleware, and afterwards of the Fed
the British tempters-'I an poor man, but
poor as | am, the King Of England is not rich
enough TO buy me. He died in 1898.
Charles Carol, of Carrolton, was of Irish de-
scent and very wealthy. He affixed his address
after his name, that the pledge of his "fortune"
might be beyond doubt. He was the last sir
vivor of the signers, and died November l4th,
1852.
Thomas Lynch, jr., of South Carolina, sue
ceeded his father, who died viii at Congress
in l716, and signed the Declaration.
Thomas Mexican, a signer of Pennsylvania,
was also of Irish parentage. He was success
lively, Senator, Governor of PENNSYLVANIA, and
President of Congress. After fifty years Of
public life, he died on the 9th OF June, 1871.
Edward RGtledge, of South Carolina was
also a sgner, fought in the Southern Campaign,
ar a. - g .v;csOr o. SoIT'-
1899, and died in 1890.
1t has been said that "of these illustrious
names, destined to live forever on the new
Charter of Human Freedom, Ireland should be
wisely Jealous, for the worlds revolutions viii
never presents such another tablet OF glory to
the children of men,"

DANGEROUS MOVEMENT IN TEXAS.
The following brief article, which is taken
from the Washington "Cotton Plant" is well
calcuatedt to arrest the startled attention Of the
whole country:
HIGHLY IMPORTANT Ttras and tile Barings
Tile Pacific Ralroad.-"By reference to the
following hasty letter from our special cores
pondent at San Antonio, it will be seen that an
important step has been taken in regard 70 the
Pacific Railroad.
SAN ANTONIO, March /, 1858.
Editor "Cctton Plant:"-I have Just learned
that very important bill has been put through
the Texas Legislature. The bill grants to the
Barings, of London, the right of way from
Houston, Texas, to FL Paso. They ask for no
land-nothing but the right of way. Their
agent, Mr.. Chastworth, has pledged the faith of
the Barings, and forty millions of dollars, to
carry out the matter at once. They intend car
rying the road to the Pacific, and it is under
stood that the Mexican government is prepared
to grant the right of way over their territory
If Congress docs not favor the road, the Pacific
terminus will be made more to the Southward,
and on Mexican soil. The mail is closing.

A SMART APRIL FooL.-Ihe Charleston
'Standard of the Sd inst says.
Among the many attempts to play off practi-
cal jokes upon the 'green" ones of the first of
April, that of lady at one of the boarding
houses of our city, is the best we have ever heard
of 1t was this: She procured from a marble
yard several pieces of beautiful white marble,
and breaking them into nice Jumps, put them
into the sugar bowls. The counterfeit was
complete-no unsuspecting person could have
detected the fraud. Soon supper was ready
the tea was poured, and the sugar bowls were
passed around the table. Everybody took one,
two, Or three Jumps according to their liking.
Then following a general tasting and string all
around the table-nobody's tea was sweet e.
nough, and the sugar refused positively to melt.
They ground their spoons against it and stirred
again, but it was no go. The sugar proved to
be marble, and they, for once, proved to be
April tools."

The yellow SHowER.-Within a few days
it mas been noticed that yellowish dust resem-
bling Sulphur, has been deposited during show
ers of rain, il parts Of New York, Ohio, Ken
tucky and Louisiana. Much speculation has
been exciteq as to the nature of the phenome-
non. A scientific correspondent of the Zanes-
yiIle(O.) Courier volunteers the tollowing:-'I
found the yell8w dust composed of vegetable
cells, conta ming several nucles and granules,
each evide1ty the pollen or flower dust of some
early blooRing tree, perhaps in some more
Southern l.kitude. Among the vegetable mass
es animalcake were seen to move when 1t was
first collected but they apparently died soon af-
ter being placed under the microscope, before
their Character could be well ascertalned.'
