The "Old Dominion" Tea Potts made on the
same plan as the Old Dominion" Coffee Pot, and
is esigned for boiling black tea, Only one half
the usual quantity of tea required, and a beveer
age obtained as much sudeTor to the ordinary
infusion of tea, as the coffee made in the ''Old
Dominion" Coffee Pot is superior to coffee made
in the common boiler. This is not mere assertion
but fact, as any housekeeper may prove for her

Logan, the commedian, once lent his

on returning to him, it was found to have
stopped from the moment she took charge
of it, whereupon he presented her with the
following neat impromptu:

SpLINTERS AND FAG-ENnS,
A yellow Fever Joke.
eArnERED rRoMTnE PIoKINos OF EVERYDAY LIZ

A yellow Fever Joke.
The Mobile Advertiser tells the follow
ing good story Of notorious practical
joker of that city, yclopt "Straight-back
Dick" Dick was at the wharf, one day
last week, when one of the up-rivel boats
arrived. lie watched closely The coun-
tenance of each passenger as he stepped
from the plank upon the wharf, and at
length fastened his gaze upon an individ-
ual, who from his appearance and man
ners, was considerably nearer Mobile than
he had ever been before. He was evil
IDENTIFY ill at ease and had probably heard
the reports which were rife in the country
relative to the hundreds dying in Mobile
every hour from yellow fever. The man
started toward Damphin street, carpet
sack in hand but had not proceeded far,
when heavy hand was laid upon his
shoulder, and he suddenly stopped. Upon
turning round, he met the cold, serious
countenance of Dick, and it seemed to
send thrill ofhorror throughout his whole
frame. After looking at him steadily for
about minute, Dick slowly circulated
"Yes, you are the man, Stand up
straight !"
With fear visible in his countcnance,
the poor fellow essayed to do as he was
commanded.
"Straighter yeti" said Dick. "There,
that will do" and taking from his pocket
a small tape measure, he stopped down
and measured from the sole Of his boot to
the crown of his hat, took pencil and
carefully noted the hight in his pocket
book, to the utter amazement of the stran-
ger after which he measured him across
the shoulders, and again noted the dimen-
sions. He then looked the stranger firmly
in the face and said
Sir, l am very sorry that it is SO, but
| really will not be able to finish it for
you before morning"
"Finish what ~ asked the stranger, en-
deavoring in vain to appear calm.
Why, your coffin, to be sure You
see, l am the city undertaken, and the
people are dying hero so fast, that | can
hardly supply the demand for collins. You
will have to wait until your turn comes,
which will be tomorrow morning say
about 9 o'clock"
But what do | want with coffin ? |
have no idea of dying2"
"You haven't, eh J.? Sir, you will not
live two hours and half. | see it in
your countenance. Why, even now, you
have pain-a slight pain in your back. b"
Eyes, l believe have" replied the
trembling hoosier,
Exactly" said Dick, "and in your
limbs TOO!
"Yes, stranger, you're right, and be-
gin to feel it in the back of my neck and
head"
"Of course you do, and unless you do
something for it, you'll be dead in a short
time l assure you. Take my advice, now
20 back aboard the boat, swallow down a
gill of brandy, get into your state-room
and cover up with blankets. Stay there
till you perspire freely, then leave here
like lightning"
Hoosier hurried on board the boat
and followed Dicks instructions to the
letter. He says he never will forget the
kindness of the tall man in Mobile who
gave him such good advice,

Out in Vermont, during the cold
circle an invalid procured junk bottle
of new rum" from an agent, carried it
home, tied string round the nozzle, and
hung it up near the stove, to keep it safe.
In the morning he found the bottle on the
floor, and on looking up, saw the frozen
rum still hanging by the neck.

ton, and for the relief of Consumptive
Patients in advanced stages of the
disease.
So wide is the field of its usefulness and so nu-
merous are the cases of its cures, that almost
every section Of country abounds in persons pub
licly known, who have been restored from alarming
and even desperate diseases of the lungs by its
use. When once tried, its superiority over every
other medicine of its kind is too apparent to escape
observation, and where its virtues are known, the
public no longer hesitate what antidote to employ
for the distressing and dangerous affections Of the
pulmonary organs that are incident to our climate.
While many inferior remedies thrust upon the
community have failed and been discarded, this
has gained friends by every trial, conferred benefits
on the afflicted they can never forget, and pro-
duced cures too numerous and too remarkable to
be forgotten.

HAYTI SINKING INTO BARBARlsM.-Mr.
James Redpath, renownei as Kansas free
dom shrieker and firm believer in negro
equality, has recently made visit 10 Hayti,
and is writing series Of articles for the n.
Y. Tribune, which give most uniavorable
account of the morals and the condition of
the people OF that country Mr.. Redpath' 3
account of the low state of morals is truly
deplorable. He says marriage is almost un-
known. The woman who lives in the
house with the man is regarded as his wife,
but each man who can afford it is expected
to support several concubines. And this
promiscous intercourse degrades neither the
man nor woman in the estimation of soci-
ETY.. Indeed, the mother first gives her con-
sent before the daughter assumes the rela-
ton of concubine Mr. Redpath says the
doctrine of free love, as applicable to the
present condition of society, has had free
scope there for many years and a more ut
terly demoralizing system, or one better
adapted TO drive ont all purity there is from
the earth, can scarcely be conceived of
