QUEER REMEDY FOR w HOPPING COCGH.-
The Springfield Republican says:
very great relief we are assured upon prac-
teal knowledge, is obtained by wearing about
the neck fresh tarrcd rope of the size of a bed
cord, covered with thin ribbon. The aroma OF
the tar has wonderful effect in quoting the
cough and preventing the spasms.

the auctioneer is trying to get bids from
dull crowd, he viii sometimes say. The
first man that opens his mouth to bid shall
have the goods This he does with the
intent on of creeping on. ofthe bargain if the
bid should be too insignificant. AS upon
receiving bid Of three cents, he replies,
oh, you amt man, you're a boy;' or,
Your mouth was open already An auc-
tioneer was headed on this at Pittsburgh,
not long since, as follows
Auctioneer-The first man who bids on
this shall havei it.

Arrival of the Pacific.

New York, Jan. 95.
The U. S. Mail Steamer Pacific, with Ii
verpool dates to the 10th. arrived this morn
ing, with SO passengers. On her outward
trip, in running up the Mersey, the Pacific
sunk a brig bound to Calcutta, with car
go valued at 100000. No lives lost
The loss of the packet ship Geo. Canning,
of this port, is confirmed. 1t is feared that
all on board, 100 in number, perished;--
some papers and luggage belonging to her
having washed ashore at Heligo.and, which
is all that is known of her fate. She was
bound to Hamburg.
The Eastern question has assumed an
entirely ne,c phase. Prince Gortschakoff
has announcedto the Austrian Government
that the Gar has accepted, not only the four
points of guarantee, but also the interpre-
tation given TO them by Austria, England
and France. But as no armistice is prov-
dcd for, hostilities continue while negotia-
tons are going on.
Sardinia has joined the Western Alliance.
The conduct of Prussia and the German
States continue equivocal. The sincerity
Of Russia is doubted, and consols which at
first advanced two per cent, fell back again.
The Allies will insist on reducing Russian
naval force in the Black sea, and to this, it is
said, Russia will not consent.
Heavy failures are reported in London.
Large amounts of the. new French Loan
have been taken in England at 2a3 per ct.

dcd tie Principalties, having crossed the
Danube, entered the Dobrudscha; and TAX

lava was to be finished at once. The fire
of the allies continues very feeble. Sick
