rlMoRE.--Th scene al the subscription
to Tho irst city passenger ra'iroa1 y
Baltimore Wal more amusing. and ext$
ting than that at Pittsburg. There was
no fight, it is tue, but some one stole
he book of subscription, and there was
quite a hunt for it before it was obta'ned.
The mount subscribed was one hundred
and fifty millions of dollars, a sum large
enough, I 0 carry on the war against Aus.
tria, and drive her out of Lombardy and
Venice. One individual subscribed sixty
five millions Of dollars ; one subscribed
fifty millions, and another ten millions.
TIE amount really needed tor the work
is probably five hundred thousand dol
lars.
Much like the famous subscriptions Of
the renowned RoBr. J. WALKER, and the
equally celebrated JOEL G. SEWER, to
the great Southern Pacific R'I!road.-
The story runs that JOEL and ROBERT
meeting accidentally at the office Of the
Company in New York, and fully be
|ieviny eacn other to be miIliona'res, de-
terlnined to astonish the world with tie
magnitude Of their wealth, subscribed
five millions. Of dollars. each. JOEL
thought This an excellent opportunity TO
cultivate the acquaintance Of ROBERT,
and invited him 70 dinner. They, Of
course, Jared s~umptuous;,, upon the best
chee the land supplied, i" which Screen

Over their "spark'ing bumpers" the!
unanimously resolved to subscribe each
five millions alditio.al, Which was i'm

slightest oPpos'uo" being raised by eli
lher patty. An extra -b"tt|e Of "Cli-
quot" is said to have induced these no.
b|e and patriotic; gentlemen to make
further sacrifices for their coun,ry's
yuod, and fifteen millions more were
added to their already extensive sub
scriptions. A few glasses Of Coguac az
Ter dinner, vastly increased the impor.
lance Of The great undertaking, IN their
opinion, and they concluded that just
twenty millions more each, would DOT IN
the slightest degree interfere with their
" little pocket change" History fails to
inform US whether Tie subscriptions wore
paid, but a strong supposition exists
they were!

upon to bear testimony in favor of the skill Of

justice demands that we should not pass DR..
Czapkay by, without something more than o
mere mention. Unlike the greater portion of
those who thrust themselves and their nostrums
before the public, whose practices are empirical.
Dr. Czapkay is gentleman of rare medical and

OF chief surgeon of the lberating army during
the late Hungarian Revolution, and is possessed
of all the requisite experience and skill for the
successful practice of his profession 1t is to the

such complaints, whether arising from infection,
indiscretion, selfabuse, or loss of vrity, he can
guarantee, from his extensive practice, speedy
and permanent cure. To those suffering from
the effects of physical and mental debility, We

you from an untimely grave, and lead you back

the theatre of more rioting and bloodshed than

less than hundred yards Of Main street, and

Supreme Court annulling the prohibitory act Of
the Legislature, has set the ball again in motion.
