TELEeRAPH1NG.-Amusing mistakes
sometimes take place in telegraph des-
patches. A few days since, gentleman
telegraphed to one of our western cities
to gain intelligence of his daughter,
who was i'll. In return he received a
laconic reply from her attending physi-
clan which purported that he was a
grandfather.
"Heavensl" he exclaimed, throwing
down the missive as if it had been no;
cinder. ''My daughter ctildi"
Then striding to his closet, he grab
bed his coat and hat and struck bee
line for the cars, muttering: ga pretty
muss indeed-a child-my daughter in
such a predicament-and unmarried,
too? Oh, such disgracer'
In few hours he was at the sick
room of his daughter. The physician
was surprised to see him so soon, but
politely told him that ''the girl was get
ting along quite finely"
$50 it's girl?" gasped the father.
"of course" said the doctor; "don't
you call your daughter glrl?
"Ah--hem--yes-but, th--the childi"
"Child!" wondered the doctor, "what
child?"
"Why, sir, did you not send that
despatch?" pettishly exclaimed our
friend as he handed to the doctor the
despatch which he had hastily picked
up from the floor before he came from
home. The doctor looked at it, and a
broad smile was visible upon his fea-
lures

knows it never contained such news as

in and done for, undesignedly, and Of

is quickly and rapidly cured, by simply
wearing the Chains for a few hours
each day. ~ r.e
The Chains were first introduced in
the City Of New York, where they
were exhibited to Profs. Valentine Mott
Van Buren, Post, and Carnochan, who
readily discovered that they possessed
strnnge and singular Power Of InstnntIy
rE Relieving Pains, --H1-.
whenever applied, and by thoir recon-
mendation, and influence, they were in-
troduced into the different Hospitals ol
New York, and are now in daily use in
those institutions, in the treatment and
cure Of the above named diseases.
No other Medical Agent,
in the world, can produce so many well
authenticated Certificates Of cure, from
Scientific Physicians and Intelligent
Patients as may be found in each
Pamphlet, which may be obtained
(gratis) at the Drug Store of THO. A.
PECK, who is the sole Agent for Burling-
ton, and who will explain the manner
Of use, to any one who may apply.
In the City of New York, at the
General Office. 5i8 Broadway, there
are daily being sold, from forty to sixty
Chains, ard the sale and demand in
Boston are as great in proportion to the
population. although they have been in.
troduced three months.
The CHAINS are easily worn, and are
equally applicable TO all classes Of per.
sons. the child as well as the adult, and
are always ready for use--never get out
Of repair, and are as much an article
of ornament, as a valuable means of
cure.
CAPTION TO LADIEs.-Laiies who are
ensiente are requested not to continue
their use but for a few moments, at
each time, for by the long use, miscar-
riage is frequently produced.

DEATH OF TlLFouRD.-On the 18th
of March, Justice Talfourd, while char
ging the Grsnd Jury at Stafford, was at
tackled with st of apoplexy, of which
he died. ~ ia
= He fell just as this beautiful senti-
nent had left his lips:
"But how painful is the thought that
there are men and women growing up
around us, ministering to our comforts
and necessities, continual inmates OF our
dwellings,, with whose affections and ma
ture we are as much unacquainted as if
they were inhabitants Of some other
sphere. This feeling, arising from that
kind of reserve peculiar to the English
character, does, l think, greatly tend to
prevent that mingling of class with
class, that reciprocation of kind words
and gentle affections, gracious admoni-
tons and kind inquiries, which often,
more than any book education, tend to
the culture Of the affections of the
heart, refinement, and elevation of the
character of those to whom they are
addressed. And if 1 were to be asked
what is the great want of English socie-
ty-to mingle class with class-I would
say, in one word, the want is the want OF
sympathy"
At this point his head dropped on
one side. Itwas apparent that apoplexy
had seized him. He was taken to his
lodging as quickly as possible. He
died the moment he was laid upon the
bed. l-Itf -LLIIGktt
Thomas Noon Talfourd was born at
Reading, January 26, 1895. His faith
er was a brewer; his mother the daugh-
ter of dissenting minister. He COM
menced his education at the grammar
school of his native town, under DIR.
Valpy, and while a lad wrote small
volume of poetry. He went to London
at the age of eighteen, and was placed
as a student of law under Chitty, the
celebrated pleader, in 1918. He was
admitted to the bar in 1891, and was
married the next year.
He was successful as lawyer, reach
ed a high prominence at the bar, was
appointed sers rseant-at-law, and final
ly elevated to the bench.
Talfourd successfully cultivated liter
ature as a refreshing relief from the du-
ties of his profession. He was among
the first to appreciate Wordsworth as a
poet, and some of his earliest attempts
in literature were criticisms on that
bard, who was pronounced by him to be
the poet of the age. Ion was his great
est literary success. and his subsequent
dramas, the Athenian Captive and Glen
coe, were but inferior copies of the same
school. The Vacation Ran5zes and the
Memoirs of Charles Lamb are his best
known prose works.
Talfourd was a member of Parliament,
and has won the lasting gratitude of
the literary world by his uniform de-
fence of the claims of literature, and
rights Of authorship. To Talfourd's
services may be mainly attributed the
present International English copyright
law.
The name of Talfourd has reflected
interest with the brighter stars of Cole
ridge, Wordsworth and Lamb, with
whom in his youth he had the glory of
being associated, and of whose compan-
ionship he was always proud.

The present critical state of European af

flying rumors of the daily Journal, and the
ponderOus tome of the future historian, writ
ten after the living interest and excitement of
the great political events Of the time shall have
passed away. 1t is to these Periodicals that
readers must look for the only really intelligi-
bic and reliable history of current events, and
as such, in addition to their well-established
literary, scientific, and theological character,
we urge them upon the consideration of the
reading public

of early sheets from the British Publishers, BY
