l. The PATENT PErTICoAT LIFTER.-The la.
test notion from the land of shoe-pegs and
wooden clocks says somebody, is an appa-
ratus whereby ladies can manage their
skirts while stepping into or out of a carri.
age, going up or down stairs, and in the
streets and all the while keeping their
hands in their pockets, The plan is per-
fcctly simple and the inventor exhibited
in the Crystal Palace clay figure with
the machine attached, to large and ad-
miring crowd of both sexes, the other eve
ming. There are four smallpulleys attach
cd to the waist, underneath the dress over
which are rove small cords, one end of
which is attached, with diaper pins, sever
ally to the front, rear and sides of the skirt,
at about the height Of the knee The 9th.
er ends terminate in loops, which arc led
into the pockets on the other side. If
lady wishes to go up stairs, she pulls No. l
in the right pocket, and instantly the
dress rises in front, so that the ascent is
made with perfect grace. No. 2 in the left
hand pocket elevates the rear in the same
manner, and oil pulled at once lifts all the
skirts knee high! This maneuvre is inten-
ded for very muddy crossing Buffalo Re
public.

BG- We like mischievous children, and
for this reason; they are apt to make old
men. Good boys generally die in their fifth
year; not because they are good, but be-
cause their quiet habits make them stran-
gers to mud puddles and oxygen, dirt pies
and out door exercise. When friend tells
US that he has little baby who never
"wants to leave his books" the knob Of the
front door Immediately becomes an object
of interest to us; we know, as if we were
blest with foreknowledge, that in less than
year strip Of black Grape will be throw
ing q shade across his path that time will
never eradicate.

SMUT IN WHEAr.-Smut in wheat may
be very eifectually prevented by soaking or
washing the seed in vitriol water. The
seed should not be allowed to remain very
long in the water II the solution is strong
one, as there is danger Of destroying the
germ. After pouring off the water, the
seed may be dried very speedily, and with
beneficial effect, by mixing or rolling it
in gypsum, or plaster, which will cause it
to sprout much quicker, and, by coating it,
prevent the effect Of the vitriol upon the
hands of the soEer. have seen this
method tried in q number of instances, and
never have known the crop, in a single in
stance, to contain smutheads. In one in
stance, eight bushels of seed-wheat were
taken from the same bin, separated into
two equal parcels, one parcel prepared in
the above manner, and the other left in its
natural state, and both sown in the same
field, side by side, the whole field having
been prepared alike for sowing, and the two
acres, grown from prepared seed, contained
no smut, while the other portion Of the field
was too smutty to be of any value.

D6- The fifth universalist church, Bos-
ton, for number of years past has been
visited on Sunday during the summer sea-
son, by swallows, who fly in at the windows
and often alight on some conspicuous place
and remain during the services. One Sun
day, six of these birds entered at one time,
and after flying around the church, took
their places over the choir seats. These
weekly visits have become so familiar to the
congregation that they produce no distur-
bance whatever.

The cash receipts for the quarter ending
September 80, 1855, are less than for the
same period last year, but the aggregate To-
cations are larger. The reason is that the
bounty land warrants were nearly exhaust
ed before the beginning of the last fiscal
year, while the market is now well supplied
with them under the recent act. Ten thou
sand patents have been issued under the
act Of 1855.

Lakeland, yesterday, rendered his de-
cision in the habeas corpus. case, which
has been pending the past week. The
particulars Of the case has been pre-
viously published, but we refer to them
in brief. Alphonsine Hickman, a
minor, had been indentured to her
uncle, with the consent of her mother
her father having died, and the uncle
by power of attorney, had delegated
his authority to the Lady Superior Of
the Convent of the Sisters of st
Joseph, at Carondelet. The Court
decided that the uncle had no right
to transfer his authority or custody t.
another, and that the indentures were
void, because they contained no cove,
nant or obligation on the part Of the
uncle. He accordingly ordered the
child to be delivered to the mother

A gentleman writes to the Hartford
(G.) Courant, that about a year ago,
while engaged in counting over money,
he ~carelessly put his name on the back
of a $50 bill. A son Of Erin came
into his Office a few days since with the
bill, and said he had come from East
Hartford to get gold from the endorser.
The gentleman examined the detector
and found the bank had suspended,
and on further examination found that
he hadmade himself liable as endorser
by placing his name on the back of
the bill-whereupOn he gracefully paid
