ST. ANTHoNY's NosE.-Some one is

proboscis on the North River, New York,
was recently in danger of damage because
of the brush on and above it taking fire.
He consoles himself, however, with the re-

thrown away Could the famous "Antho-
ny, the trumpeter," so faithfully remembered
in Knickerbocker's history of New York, as
one who made the shores Of old Hudson
river resound with the mighty blasts of his
instrument-could he but return to US, and
visit again the scenes Of his exploits, he
would go back to an unrest in the bosom of
mother earth, after having ascertained that
his favorite nose, the nose in which all

ity they held-a nose which has won q
world wide reputation wherever Fame has
been able to sound her trumpet-has been
ruthlessly cut of, defaced and removed by
the New York and Hudson Railroad Co.
The modern spirit Of improvement is no
respecter Of the venerable past, nor Of the
monuments which mark it. And so the

cars and as if to add insult to injury, the

@.The report that Ericsson, of calorc
celebrity, had become Il total bankrupt, was
unfounded. He has wealthy friends in
New York, whose faith in his invention is
still mistaken, and who are willing to adj
vance it with material aid.
In this view Of the case, we are rather of
the opinion that our disintcrested friend in
Michigan who sent us a circular, short
time since. proposing that a collection he
taken up for ERICssoN's benefit, throughout
the different States, next Fourth of July,
had the lining of his own pockets in COIL
temptation, at the expense Of those who
eomniserated the inventors unhappy con
dition, rs set forth in that circular.

PLEAsANy SIGnr.-It was a presage of
better things we trust, that yesterday, two
large RATS Aoated past the city, on their
way to some point below There are many
who hang anxious hopes upon the expected
Jnne rise, and whose worldly fortune, almost,
depends upon its coming. If but the half
of the immense number Of logs which lie
on the Upper Mississippi and its branches,
can be got down to market, there will be
universal rejoicing. Business will be pro-
