mos, remarkable coincidence were scroiul-
ously inclined, the eleest, iJane) more par
ticularly SO, and the mother finding such to
BE- the case, cid all in her power 10 relieve
the sufferer, but in vain; she became worse,
the blood OF the others was equally impure,
and they all three were 50 bad at last, as to
become quite an object of horror to their
friends. The mother, about eight weeks
ago, put them through a course Of tlollo-
ways Pills and Ointment, and strange, yet
true il is, that their blood became thoroughly
purified, and the scrofulous symptoms dis
appeared. They are now all three in excel
lent health, TO the astnnishment and delight
of their afiectionate parents.

the following means Of collecting a
bad debt from an enemy; which, as
it is altogether novel pan Of forcing

approaching the house Of the Hon:

neighbor, standing by him, "there

he owes every body" The debtor
approached, ever and anon, stroking
down the left side Of his cheek. as
though with the pain Of tooth-ache,
sub was the fact, and as the Hon
said he had done the same
thing before, he preferred to pull it.
The pullicans were not very good,
and for sake Of making sure Of the
tooth, the debtor consented to lay fa'
with his back to the floor. The Hon.
-, got astride of him. and after.
wards succeeded in getting hold Of the
tooth, which ever and anon he would
wrench, and then ask to how it felt.
In this manner he made the PROSTATE

! Great excitement has prevailed y
Pompeii, the past week. On hearing
of the forcible arrestof Mr.. Mathew
Koszta BY Turkey" meeting Of the
citizens Of Pompeiis was Immediately
called at Liberty Hall, were the most
eloquent and patriotic speeches were
made. Indeed so high did feelings Of
Indignation run, that they boiled over
into row. After order was restored
tue Hon. John Hancock Brown Jones,
introduced the following Preamble
and Resolutions M
| Preamble, That in the arrest Of
Mathew Koszta-a citizen Of the U.
States--invested as he was, with all
the rights, titles and immunities OF
amy other citizen: to 60 and do, any,
thing anywhere, with impugnity with
in the bounds Of great creation; that
we recognize violation ofinternation-
al law and insult to liberty; and a
stain on the banner Of the Union
Therefore be it
Resolred, That our delegates in
Congress be instructed to spread them
selves on this subject-offering as it.
does, such fair field for the display
of the burning and whitening elo
quence OF Democratic republicallism
And be it further
Rcsolaea, That in our opinion the
whole Navy Of the United States
should be put to sea, to see into the
matter, and demand of the Grand
Turk, why he threw Mathew Koszta
into the Dead Sea? (By way of pa
renthasis, may say here, that the
citizens Of Pompeii, are all right on
the subject Of Kossuth Kuba, and
koszta.) The following resolution
from the same patriotic meeting will
convince you:
RESOLVED, That we regard the
principle of non-interyention, as a
great principle, that any attempt on
the part OF either "Buil' or the Rus.
sian Bear, to do any thing, with the
naked barbarians Of the Island, must
be resisted and will be resisted, at the
dagger's point"
BY telegraph last night the citizens
Of Pompeii, have learned to their great
surprise, Of the revolutionary move
ments in the State General Assembly.
Does the last Constitution want mend
ing already? 1fso lay it aside with
the Acts; ana, let us have new one.
1t costs little and gives employment to
our unproductive capital.
Talking Of Capital, l am authorized
to say n behalf of the citizens of Pom
pei, they will give square of ground
to the State near the site where the
Pompeii Athnntum is to be erected
where the railroad from Port Hudson
comes in; will you please to present
this matter in "a BILL In reference
