DYES DELrsrAToR.-We are in receipt
of copy OF this work from the publishers
h is quite large volume, and processes to
contain fac.similes of all the bank bills now
Issued in the U. States and British North
America. Mr.. Dye says that "ntter three
years Of incessant toll this work has at
length been completed. Perhaps no book,
in this or any other language, has been got
up at such expense, and we can safely say
tha, none can surpass it in value for com
mercial purposes - "All that Reporters
and Detectors can do is to cry stop thlei
after the goods have been stolen, but the
Delineator detects them at once" Every
business man, for his own protection, should
be in possession of copy OF the above
work.

MAD DoGs.--Illinois papers state that
several mad dogs have been recently killed
at Freeport in that State. 1t used TO be the
opinion that dogs only went mad when
Sirius was in the ascendant, but now it ap-
pears that whether the dog star RACES or not,
the canin. species is as likely to get mad in
the short month OF February as in the long
hot days OF August. But great many
changes are going on in the world, snd
great many facts have been developed by
the light of these latter days, which were
never dreamed of by the wisdom of our an
cestors.

FowLER's LEcrunEs.-on Tuesday even.

FowLER's LEcrunEs.-On Tuesday even :.
ing We attended one of O. S. FowLER's lee.
lures at LIE Claire Hall. His subject was the
laws Of health, particularly as they refer to
the rearing OF children. He gave very many
'home truths for home consumption"
which, we doubt not, were fully appreciated
by his audience. His manner of lecturing
is peculiar and so interspersed with illustra-
tons, or anecdotes as he terms them, as
continuously to elicit the attention OF his
audience. There is no doubt that we would
all be healthier did we regard more strictly
our diet, exercise and general mode of liv.
ing; but there are very many things that
mankind ought to do, which they do not,
especially as relate to the laws of health.
At the close OF his lecture Mr.. Fowler ey-
amined the heads of a couple Of our citizens
and was generally correct in his delineation
oil their characters. Before Diminishing his
audience, which was respectable for char.
acter more than for numbers. he requested
them in Yankee Parlance, "to talk up
the matter among their friends that in fs-
ture he might have larger audiences! We
presume that Mr.. Fowler has not yet learned
that there are three daily newspapers pub
lished in Davenport, whose mission it is to
acquaint citizens with the events transpi.
ring around them, and to the columns OF
which our people are accustomed to look
for such information ind not to the gossip
Of their friends.
