STEAM CARRIAGEs.-The use of
steam in place ofhorses, on common
roads, has been found practicable,
and in all respects economical, by ac-
tual experiment in England, and has
only been prevented hitherto by the
opposition (as is supposed ofthe ag-
ricultural interest. An effort is now
being made in this country, where
the prejudices of a single interest
are less formidable obstacles to a
public improvement to introduce
steam carriages for our roads. Mr..
J. X. Fisher, of New. Y ork, has in
vented several valuable improve
ments in the construction and ar
rangement of such carriages, and is
now raising a joint stock company,
with a capital of 100000, for the
manufacture of his machine. A
specimen, showing the working parts
of the steam carriage, is now on ex-
hibition at the Crystal Palace. Mr..
Fisher alleges that he can stop
his carriage, or turn it, in less time
than horse vehicle of equivalen
weight and power, and that it vii
also wear roads much less.

ODD FELLOWSHIP. little incident
revealing the benefit of odd fellow
ship came to our notice yesterday.
A widow lady, whose husband had
belonged to Montezuma Lodge, had
been benefited by the lodge, as their
bylaws directed, and had received
extra relief at their hands. A short
time since her little boy of seven
years broke his leg, the expense at
tending which she could poorly bear.
The lodge heard of the matter, and
by liberal donation relieved her
want. The act deserves recording.

An article founded upon Scientific Primer

stances being perfectly safe when taken, and
has nerer been known to fail in curing the
most obstinate case. Worms can ever exist
when this remedy is once used, from the fact
that it not only destroys them but removes all
the slime and mucus which may remain.
THE TAPE WORM.

consequently they do not use the proper medl-

ficted with this awful foe to health, recon-
mend the use Of my Worm Syrup and L'oer
Pills; the Syrup to be taken in doses of two
table spoonfuls three times day, then take
from FIVE to eight Of my Liver Pills,t dislodge
and pass the worm. By strictly following
these directions, the most obstinate cases OF
Tape worm can be speedily cured.
ROUND OR STOMACH WORM.
This worm is usually found in the small in
testines, and is the worm most common to
children, vet it is not entirely confined to them
as adults have frequently been known to suf-
fer with them. The Symptoms most prominent
while affected with this worm, are hardness
