How TO PREVENT MosQuIToEs b.
TING.-As the hot weather has set in,
and mosquitoes are about becoming
troublesome, we, with our usual kind
ness towards our subscribers, give this
valuable recipe for the prevention of
mosquitoe bites.
Take house near the banks of some
river or stream-the size of the house
will of course depend upon your means
-divest yourself of your clothing. and
then walk up to your neck in the water;
when you see mosquitoe coming, bob
down, and it will pass harmlessly over
you. Care must be taken, however,
that you don't keep your head too long
under water. By paying attention to
the above, mosquitoes will never worry
you.

ALCoRAN.-The book which contains
the revelation and credenda of Mahom-
ct: 1t is confessedly the standard of the
Arabic tongue, and as the Mahometans
believe, inimiable by any human pen
hence they assume its divine origin 1t
is the common opinion of writer's that
Mahomet was assisted by Batiras, a J "a
Goblin, Sergius, HISTORIAN monk, and
by learned jew, in composing this
book, most of whose principles are the
same as those of Arius. Nestorus. Sabel-
Illus, and other heresiarchs. The Ma
hometans say that God sent it to their
prophet by the Angel Gabriel: it was
written ABBOTT A. D. Clio.

The CABLE FOR THE ADRIATIc.-The
strongest cable ever manufactured for
merchant vessel is now lying at one of
the railway stations in this town. The
makers of the cable are Messrs. Hing
ley & Sons, of Kradley and Netherton.
1t is intended for mooring the United
States Nail Steamship Adriatic in the
Sloyne when she arrives, and is consid-
cred capable of holding her, large as
she is, in the heaviest gale. The length
of the cable is forty yards, and its
weight per link fifty pounds. In the
process of proving, one of the weakest
links gave way at 81 tons pressure, with
a force that shook the building Anew
link was substituted, and the cable with
stood strain of 1O5 tons. NIessrs.
Hingley & Sons are making the cables
for the Great Casters each link of
which will weigh 20 pounds.--Licerpool

u AS specimen of the wit of the
red race, we give the retort of Shaw
nee Indian, who, having had drink of
fre-water of a Yankee tavern keeper,
was asked three coppers for it."
GLOW dat ?" said Shawnee, elast year
you asked but two coppers. Why now,
pale face, Mree2"
"Oh," said the landlord, sit costs me
a good deal to keep rum all the winter.
It's as expensive to keep a hogshead of
rum as horse"
81 can't see that" said the Indian.
"Hogsheads no eat hay. May be drink
as much aoater, though"
