A NOVEL LUXURY. -The latest novelty
fom Germany is a musical bed, which receives
the weary body, and Immediately Flaps il

air of Aubcr to be played, which continues
to lull the most wakefal to sleep. At the
head is a clock, the hand of which being
placed at the hour the sleeper wishes to rise,
when the time arrives the bed plays a march
OF Sponton, with drums and cymbals, and,
in short, with noise enough to rouse the seven
secpcrs.

SAN FRANCISCO, January 10, 1866
CAPT. Il. RRowN-Sir. L take this opportunity to inform
you that we used thos~ Bomb Iances W e bought Of you, and
found them to be of great Deceft in capturing whales amongst
the ice.
The first whal, tst we n-cd the Bomb Lance o N was killed
in the following manner The boat went alongside of the whale
and the boat-steerer fired a Bomb into him AID then fastened to
him with a gig iron the Bomb was heard To explode, and the
whale did not blow after the Bomb exploded. The above-men-
tioned whale was in the ice, and it is our opinion that We should
not have got that whale and many others that we did get. If it
hd not been for your Bomb Lances, and We fully recommend
them to the attention of those fitting out whale ships.
Respectfully yours.
THOMAS WALL, Master bark George.

CAPT. ROBERT BRowS-My dear Sir / used your Bomb
Lances in taking a whale, north, the past season, which made
$50 bbls. of OIL We never could have taken him without said
Lances, as our boats could not get near enough to use the com
