Wedn 'sday morning last, an exciting chase took
place among the shipping in the Wrapping Dock,
after a rng-tailcd baboon which had escaped

auima had been bought by naturalist in town,
who went on board the vesss) in the morning for
the purpose Of taking possession of his slippery
purchase but the baboon seemed to have taken
sudden dread to trusting itself again on terra
frma, for in irving to lead it on shore it man
aged TO escape, and at once darted up the briggs
rigging. The hue-and-cry was Immediately
raised, and an exciting chase commenced, to
the great amusement of the lockers on. The men
employed in different vessels in the dock at once
ascended in hot pursuit, but the cunning animal
managed 10 eude its pursuers for several hours,
for no sooner was i, too holly pressed on one
vessel than it took refuge in the rigging of
another.
One man who had assembled the mainyard,

was doomed to disappointment, for the baboon,
after allowing him to approach to within few
feet, made Sudden spring on to the stays of
an adjoining ship, where it hung for some time
in mid air, suspended by lis tall but at last, af-
ter going through number of antics and find

Jocko descended, and took refuge in the cabin
of another ship. As he entered quite unan

rushed on deck, excaiming that the devil had
got on board The animal was at last secured
by sack being thrown over it, end was carried

MEDICAL Use OF SALT.-In many cases
OF disordered stomach, teaspoonful of salt is
certain cure In the violent internal aching
termed collie, add teaspoonful of salt to pint
of cold water; drink it and 60 to bed it is one
of the speediest remedies known. The same will
revive person who seems almost dead from re-
ceving heavy fall, &c.
In an apopletic fit, no time should be lost in
pouring down salt and water, if sufficient SEN
sibilty rem sin To allow of swallowing if not
the head must be sponged with cold water until
the sense return, when salt will completely
restorethe patient from lethargy
In fit, the feet should be placed in warm
water, with mustard added, and the legs briskly
rubbed, all bandaees removed from the neck,
and cool apartment procured, if possible. In
many CASES of severe bleeding at the lungs, and
when other remedies fail, DR.. Rush found that
two teaspoons full of salt completely stayed the
blood
In case of bite from mad dog, wash the
part with strong brine for an hour, and then
bind on some salt, with a rag.
In toothachc, warm salt and water held to
the part, and removed two or three times, will
relieve it in most cases. IF the gums be atfec-
ted, wash the mouth with brine. IF the teeth
he covered with tartar, wash them twice day
with salt and water
In swelled neck, wash the part with brine,
and drink it, also, twice day, until cured.
Salt will expel worms if used in food in IL
moderate degree, and aids digestion, but salt
meat is injurious, if used much.
