Royal Patent Noiseless Wheels.

This invention which has now been in practica al
use for some years, bids fair to become one of
those discoveries which mast ultimately become
universal the luxury Of riding in carriage
without noise is enhanced by the reflection that
the horse which is dragging us along has his
labor very materially lessened and that neither
wheel nor carriage is undergoing injury by the
Jolting and vibration co incident with Journey
over the stones of London; the only wear and
tear of the vehicle being the cutting to pieces
of the India rubber tire, and it has been fully
ascertained that it takes twice as long to de-
stroy this tire, as it does to render an iron tire
useless. ...t..
Her Majesty has some of her pony carriages
and park chairs fitted with the noiseIess wheel !;
and amongst the sovereigns of Europe the EN-.
peror Of Russia, the King of Wurtemburge,
and Said Paeha have adopted them. The advan-
tage Of these wheels are not confined to luxury,
butthe comfort to invalids cannot be questioned
nor can the pedestrian do other than hail with
gratitude an invention which will enable him to
walk in the city OF London without that ever
lasting din which now accompanies him where
ever he goes and last, though not least in their
favor, is the saving OF the roads, which are un-
injured by the rol Of the wheels We UNDER
stand that an establishment is 10 course of cem.
pleton, to let carriages thus fitted, at the same
charges as the other kinda boon indeed for the
ladies in their shopping excursions. A company
is also in process of formation in this city, to be
called the "Noiseless Conveyance Company"
for omnibusses and cabs at the present fares.-

The GREATEST LIVING Curiosity.
yesterday visited the Carolina Twius, who are
paying a short visit to our city. freak Of ma
ture SO extraordinary must be seen before it can
be fully credited. These children, born in Co.
lumbus county, North Carolina, are OF negro
origin, TO a remarkable degree lively and intel
lgent are beginning to utter anc repeat words
quite distinctly though only abou, sixteen months
old. This connection is much more intimate
than that Of the Siamese Twins, being joined
togetherin the back by the union of two spines
in one. Physicians who have examined them
pronounce them to be the greatest curiosity ev.
er heard of. Some of their organs are coamon
whilst Others are perfectly distinct. Often while
one is sound asleep the other is wide awake and
playful, and the connection such that whilst one
sits erect the other can lie down. Baltimore

A SENSITIVE CAPTAIN.

The captain that is to say, him of the sail
ing vessel-when he learned the name Of the
lady passenger who wished to sail in his vessel,
refused to receive her on board and whom Mar
Gus insisted upon knowing his reasons why, he
replied that he did not wish to have any authors
on board his ship, who would laugh to scorn his
accommodations, and who would put him in
book. Marcus laughed, and wanted TO pursuade
him to run the risk, assuring him that was not
dangerous, and so on. But the man was unmov
able. He would not take me on board; and
have now to wait till the next steamer goes
which is eight days later, and for this have to
thank Mrs. Trolope and Dickens.

WE ARE SEVEN.
: A GIMPLE chi!d

- SIMPLE cnl'd,
That lightly draws its breath,
And feels its life in every limb,
What should it know CT DEATH
met little cottage girl;
She was eight years old, she said;
Her hair was thick with many curl,
That clustered round her head.
She had rustic, woodland air,
And she was wildly clad;
Her eyes were fair, and very fair;
Her beauty made me glad.
"Sisters and brothers, little maid,
How many may you be?"
How many! Seven in ALL" she said,
And, wondering, looked at me.
"And where arc thsy' I pray you tell.'
She answered, Seven are we;
And two of US at Conway dwell,
And two are gone to seq.
"Two of MS in the churchyard lie,
My sister and my brother;
And, in the churchyard cottage,
Dwell near them, with my mother"
'You say that two at Conway dwell,
And two are gone to sea,
Yet ye are seven: pray you tell,
Sweet maid, how this may be.''
Then did the little maid reply,
Seven boys and girls are we;
Two of us in the chnrchyard lie,
Beneath the churchyard tree"
You run about. my little maid;
Yeur limbs they are alive:
II two are in the churchyard laid,
Then ye are only ive.''
"Their graves are green they may be ssen,"
The little maid replied,
"1'welye steps or more from mothers door,
And they are slde By side.
My stockings the,e often knit,
My 'kerchief there hem;
And there upon the ground sit;
sit aud sing to them.
"And often, after sunset, sir,
When it ls light and fair,
take my little porlinger,
And eat my supper there.
The first that died was little Jane;
In bed she moaning lay,
Till God released her from her pain,
And then she went away.
$50 in the churchynrd she was laid;
And when the grass was dry,
Together round the grave we played,
My brother John and l.
" And when the ground was white with snow,
And could run and slide,
My brother John was forced ts 60;
And he lies by her side"
How many are you then," said 1,
"If they two are In heavon?"
The little maiden did reply,
son master, we are seven!"
But they are dead-those two are dead;
Their spirits are in heaven"
Twas throwing words away; for still
The little maid would have her will,
And said, "Nay, we are seven"

WEATHER AND Crops IN ALABAmA.-The

WEATHER AND Crops IN ALABAMA.-The
Selma Sentinel, ofsSaurday last, says:
In consequence of the extreme Indictment
and wet weather in the early part of the
spring, farmers have been quite backward in
getting their crops planted, and many of
those who were sufficiently ahead to get any
planted have been compelled to replant. For
the last ten days fine spring weather has been
experienced, and most of the planters in The
surrounding country are through planting
their entire crops. The crop this year will
necessarily be backward, and Unless the fall
season should be quite favorable, the cotton
crop in this part of the country mus, be quite
Indifferent.
