.H What With. rrer rf.,

1t appears that DIR. James, the 9re-
tired physician, whose sands of life
have nearly run out" has retired and
run out from the scenes of his labors,
leaving behind him a disconsolate
police aud an unhealed world. Not
even his famous Cannibis Indica, OF
East India Hemp, which had saved
his only daughter from the grave,
was able TO arrest the mysteri-
ous prowess by which his shadow
grew less and less, until Il entirely
disappeared His sands Of |ifap ho
has, however, converted into sands Of
gold, and the possession Of 100000
consoles him for his compulsory flight
from the gayeties of New York. The
"retired physician is not the only
masquerade in which the departed
BroWn-his real name-has figured.
lie was also II. Monsett, who taught
people to change mercury into gold;
he was Professor James I. Horne,
who advertises that he will show any,
body the way to make 81, 900 year,
if not more, upon the receipt Of GER
tain sum in postage stamps, which,
coming duly to hand, the applicants
are sent recipe for the manufacture
ofartifcial honey, and the ri9htto sell
| it in any county which the dupe may
select, the two costing SIS. The en-
terprising Brown is also Madame Ju-
liza Melville, who has lately received
from France some splendid cosmetics.
These facts have just been brought to-
light by the New York Police, who
are now in eager pursuit of the retir-
ed and retiring physician. ltappears
that there vas no Canibis lndica in
the medicine of Mr.. Brown, but mere
| ly a compound Of licorice, slippery
elm decoction and honey, costing
sixteen cents, bottle and all, and for
which he charged $2.. Ills "Regula-
ting and Purifying Pill" and Excel
sior Ointment Of India" were made on
the same principle, and sold for as
many dollars as they cost hm cents.
The most magnificent OF his cosmet-
les, "Ihe Milk of Roses and Extract
OF Elder Blossoms" turns out to have
been mixture of magnesia and alco-
hol, costing him about eight cents
price So per bottle. 1t remains to be
seen under what new disguise the "re-
tired physician" will make his next
appearance before the public.

A Heroic Maiden.

A few days ago a slide occurred at
a cut on the Pittsburgh and Connells-
vile railroad, at a point on the Yough-
ioghenY, above and opposite to Me-
Keesport, where there is a sharp curve
in the river, aud the track is laid
wholly on the cutting. A large rock
fell and remained directly on the track,
This was observed by a daughter Of
Mr., John Drave, who resides on the
opposite side of the river. The male
portion Of the family were absent at
tho time, and she, knowing that it
was about the hour when the cars
would pass That point. and that there
was no time to be lost, ran to the river
side, unloosed her fathers skiff, rowed
across with all possible haste, and ran
along the track in the direction of the
approaching train, waving red nand-
kerchief, and succeeded in attracting
the attention of the engineer, in the
very nick of time. The brakes were
applied, the train stopped, and the
danger pointed out. 1t was the opin-
ion of the officers aboard, that nothing
but the timely warning given by Miss
Drave, saved the lives of all on board
the cars. The curve in the road was
SO sharp that a collision would have
thrown the cars off the track down
the embankment into the river. The
company have shown proper appre-
citation Of tho heroic conduct of the
young lady, and the invaluable SER
vice rendered, by presenting her with
pass over the road for many years
to come, and ordered the train to stop
at that point where she can most
readily reach her residence, whenever
she happened to be on board the cars
"a compliment and convenience at
the same time, as it is considerable
distance from her fathers house to the

An Ancient Institution.

One CT the editors OF the Phila-
delphia North american took a trip
down to the city of Wilmington, in
the State Of Delaware. In his re-
port Of what he saw there, he thus
describes an ancient institution, which
we believe exists in no other State in
the Union:
We should have stopped here, but
it would be a gross neglect were we
to fail IN a need Of praise to one OF
the best institutions in the State OF
Delaware-the whipping-post. We
saw one Of these inventions behind
the City Kall at Wilmington, and an.
other at Newcastle, in the jail-yard.
The whippingpost is a blessing to
the State, and works with the most
satisfactory results. In Delaware,
petty crimes are almost unknown, and
all because of the peculiar mode OF
punishment there in vogue. We are
informed that but two cases we're ever
heard Of where a white man was fog
ged twice. One of these was a man
who had broken into a farmhouse on
the edge of the county. lie was
convicted, and received thirty-nine
lashes, payable in installments.
While receiving his first allowance
he Swore necessarily, not so much on
account of the pain he suffered, but,
to use his own language, "because he
had been such id fool as to cross
the Delaware line" When he CON-
lnitted the robbery. he supposed him
self still in the State of Pennsylvania.
1t is very much to be questioned
whether the institution of the whip
ping post would not be one of the
very best preventatives to crime if
practiceI universally. OF one thing,
however, We feel fully assured; and
that is, that the man who lives to see
the practice abolished in Delaware,
will reach an age not often attained
since the days Of the patriarchs.

Curious Originals Of Familiar
Things.


Many of our most common aud fa-
miliar phrases and terms have strange
and curious origins. The laws Of
England forbade q portion Of the no
bility from telling the trees upon
their estates, the object being to pre-
serve them for building the Royal Ma
Wy. The occupant was permitted to
take any tree which accidentally fell,
and, of course, a tornado which swept
everything before it was welcomed by
the owner of extensive forests as a
godsend, and was called by the Eng
lish acindtaU. A coup de grace
was originally the death-blow or
"stroke Of mercy by which the French
executioner ended the sufferings Of
the criminal condemned to be "broken
upon tho wheel" 1t was generally
administered with a bar of iron, and
only as an especial favor. The phrase
"old fogy" means, in Ireland, the dead
grass Of a former season, which pre-.
vents the growth of a young and Wig
orous crop. 1t was imported int
America, we believe, by poor Thomas
Devin Reilly, who, though a young
man of brilliant talents and education
starved out of this world, five remem

ment salary of 200 per annun,.--

Look Before You Kick.

A minister recently, while on his
way to preach a funeral sermonin the
country, called to see one ofhis mem
bers, an old widow lady, who lived
near the road he was travelling. The
old lady had just been making sausa-
ges and she felt proud of them, they
were so plump, round and sweet. Oh
course she insisted on the minister
taking some Of the links home to his
family. lie objected on account Of
not having his portmanteau along
This objection was soon overruled,
and the old lady, after wrapping them
ina rag, carefully placed a bundle in
either pocket Of the preachers capac-
ious coat. Thas equipped, he started
for the funeral. While attending to
the solemn ceremonies of the grave,
some hungry dogs scented the sauSag-
es, and were not lougin tracking them
to the pocket of the good mans over
coat. Of course this was a great an
noyance, and he was several times
under the necessity of kicking those
whelps away. The obsequies of thG
grave completed, the minister and
congregation repaired to the church
where the funeral discourse was to bC
preached, After the sermon was fin
ished the minister halted to make
some remarks to his congregation
when brother, who wished 20 have
an appointment given out, ascendet
the steps of the pulpit, and gave the
minister's coat hitch, to get his at
tention. The divine, thinking it a
dog having design upon his pocket,
raised his foot, gave a sudden kick,
and sent the good brother sprawling
down the steps.
"You will excuse me, brethren and
sisters!" said the minister, confusedly,
and without looking at the work he
had just done, "for could not avoid
it. have sausages in my pocket
and that dog has been trying to grail
them ever since | came upon the
premises!"

BRIGHAM AT PROVO CITY.
Brigham, with tho First Presiden-
cy and the Quorum of Twelve, are
now at the city of Provo, fifty-five
miles to the south of Salt Lake. Pro-

the Territory, and contains some four
thousand inhabitants. Captain Hunt
writes that Brigham will probably
make his headquarters at Parowan,
q settlement some three hundred miles
lthis side Of Salt Lake City. General
Rich writes that they will probably
not abandon Salt Lake City entirely,
unless compelled to do so, in which
event they will set fire to the city and
destroy everything. Brigham's cir

~ To cure corns, soak the foot in
warm water for quarter of an hour
every night; after each soaking, rub
on the corn, patiently with the finger,
half a dozen drops Of sweet oil; wear
around the toe during the day two
thicknesses of buckskin, withia hole
in it to receive the corn. Continue
this treatment until the corn falls out;
and by wearing moderately loose shoes
it will be months and even years before
the corn returns, when thesame treat.
ment will be efficient in a few days.

UEdwin was one day looking at
a large building which they were put
ting up just opposite his fathers
house. he watched the workmen
from day to LAY as they carried up the
brick aud mortar and then placed
them in their proper order. His
father said to him:
"Edwin, you seem to be very much
taken up with the bricklayer; pray
what might you be thinking about9-
Have you any notion Of learning the
trade9"
"No," said Edward, smiling, shut
| was just thinking what little thing
brick is, and yet that great house is
built by laying one brick upon anoth-
er."
every true, my boy; never forget
it. Just so it is with all great works.
All your learning is only one little
lesson added to another. If a man
could walk all around the world it
would be by putting one foot before
the other. Your whole life will be
made up of one little moment after
another. Drop added to drop, makes
the ocean,"
Learn from this not to despise little
things. Learn, also, not to be discour-
aged by great labor. The greatest Ia
Dor becomes easy ifdivided into parts.
You could notjump over a mountain
butstep by step takes you to the other
side. Do not fear, therefore, to at
tempt great things. Always remem'
Der that the whole of that great bail
ding is only one brick upon another.
