Bite ola Rattlesnke cared in five minutes.--Mes
srs. Perry Davis dfSon-Gents:-A merchant of
Linnoens, in this State, informs me that recently
one of his sons was severely bitten on the leg by .
rattlesnake, from the effects Of which he suffered
most dreadfully. The family CHANGING to have
some of Perry Davis Pain Killer in the house inn
mediately commenced bathing the bitten place,
without knowing whether itweuldsr not, afford the
least relief. but surprising as it may seem, the poi
son was soon observed to exude from the wound
and in6ye or ten minutes the young man fell asleep
entirely free from pain, or any effect from the bite,
except the flesh wound, which healed very soon. By
giving publicity to this fact in your pamph ct de-
signed for southern and western distribution, and
such countries as poisonous reptiles more or less
abound, it might serve the conse of humanity and
be the means Of supplying an article, the want of
which has long been experienced.
Yours respectfully.

LUCK FOR THE BALTIMORE BoNApARTEs-The
special commission, to which Louis Napoleon
referred several delicate family matters, has re
ported, we learn from the Paris correspondent
of LIE Nord, of Brussels, upon the important ques-
ton of the Prince Jerone's first marriage with
Miss Patterson in America. The commission
confirm the validity of his marriage, which was
always maintained by the Pope, to the great an
noyance of Napoleon l. In consequence of this
decision the grandson of Prince Jerome and Miss
Patterson, who is a young sub-lieutenant in the
French army, becomes Legitimate member of
the Napoleon family, while Prince Napoleon, the
issue of Jerome's second marriage, is excluded.
