DATES FROM THE EAST TO SEPT. Is!

By the Pony Express and Overland Mail
we have dates from st. Louis to Sept. Is,
and from Europe to Sept. lst.
FIRE IN New YoRK.-On the night of
the 18th September, fire broke out in the
Catholic Orphan ASYLUM, on the corner Of
Eighty-ninth street and Avenue A. The
fire was soon extinguished, but in the rush
Of the children in the upper stories to get
out, one of them was precipitated over the
balconies, and so badly injured by the fall
that he died in about an hour.
GEN. HARNEY.-Recent advices from
Washington inform us that Gen. Harney
had presented to the War Department an
elaborate statement upon the San Juan
imbrogliO. We also have the gratifying
intelligence that there will be no court
martial held for the purpose of trumping
up charges against this gallant officer.
Letters from Paris announce the, death
of Mrs. Harney.
Considerable excitement exists in Han
cock county, Illinois, relative to a rumor
that the Mormons intend returning and
settling at Nauvoo, under the lead Of Joe
Smith, jr. A mass meeting Of the citizens
was held at Carthage on the 2lst August,
who protested against their returning, and
declared they would not allow them to do
so.
VIM. ]. Redpath, formerly " shrieking "
Kansas correspondent of the New York
Tribune, has recently arrived at Port-au-
Prince, and presented to the Paytiau gov
ernment plan for the overthrow of slavery
in the United States. He is said to have
promised to provide 1000 men, if the Hay
tian government would furnish sufficient
money to equip them and keep them in the
field for six months and he declared that
this number would be sufficient, with the
accession Of which they are sure in their
progress through the Southern States, to
liberate every slave within the period mem
toned. tPhe Haytian government conclu-
ded It had enough to do to look out for
Hayti, and did not care to be swallowed
up by Uncle sam. This statement is said
to emanate from government officials at
Hayti. =

TRADE WITH JAPAN.-The first fruit of the
treaty with Japan has ripened in the shape
of large expectations of an excellent quail
ty Of tea and of an amount of raw silk,
estimated to be worth 100000. The
whole amount Of the purchases from this
country of Japan productions is estimated
to exceed FIVE millions of dollars. This,
for six months, is pretty heavy business.
OF course Japan will need something that
this country can furnish, to counterbalance
this outlay.

RIPENING ToMAToEs IN WINTER-At a
meeting of the Rockpert (Illinois) Horti-
cuitural Society last winter, Mr.. Ordway
brought q specimen Of tomatoes, red and
yellow, small and large, but all perfect,
which had been ripened in his cellar, accor-
ding to the following method:
!" Plant late in the season, and pull up
the vines in the fall before they are injured
BY the frost; fasten bag about the stock,
two inches above the root, then hang them
up in o cellar by cord tied around the
vine above the bag, and Gil the bag With
moist dirt. When the bag is tied over the
root, leave q small hole at the top for the
admission of water, which should be used
occasionally to prevent the roots becoming
dry. The more light in the cellar the bet.
ter They should be hung clear from the
wall on every side, and where the sun will
strike them from o window, if possible,
and swing the vines up, with the roots up
permost."

TIE LAST OF THE ATLANTIC CABLE.--
Capt. Kell and Mr.. Varley, who went out
for the purpose Of endeavoring to raise the
American end of the Atlantic cable, report
that, although they have on many occa-
sions been able to raise the blight, and 50
get on board at different times pieces II
cable, in all amounting 10 about seven miles,
they have invariably found it broken again
few miles of" Attempts were made at
various points, but all were unsuccessful,
the rope in almost every instance giving
way. 1t was, therefore, found necessary
to abandon It. Speaking Of the state Of
the rope between Tickle point and Copper
island, Capt. Kell and Mr.. Varley say;-
Although mud Is shown on the charts,
there are uuquestionably rocks also, weed
aud sea animalcule adhering to and sur,
rounding it in many places, showing that e
had been suspended clear Of the bottom.
The cable was invariably hauled in BY hand
to avoid unnecessary strain. The recovered
cable varied in condition very much, and
what Is most important Is, that even those
portions which came out Of the black mud
were SO perished in numerous patches that
the outer covering parted on board during
the process Of hauling in, and but for The
dexterity and courage Of the men in seizing
hold oft beyond the break. where The IRON
wires stuck out like bunches Of highly;
sharpened needle points, We should not have
known 50 much Of its condition. In
word, It was evidently sometimes imbedded
in mud, sometimes on small stones, some
times half imbedded, and sometimes wholly
exposed over rocks. as was apparent from
the condition Of the outer covering. Tho
iron wires in many places often appeared
sound; but, on minute inspection, were found
eaten away and rotten. The sewing was
also decayed. In some places the iron
wires were coated with metallic wires, and
much eaten, they having most probably
rested upon copper ore for there are veins
Of It 10 Trinity Bay. The gutta-percha
and copper wire are, however. in as good
condition as when laid down. These por-
tiOus Of the cable recovered at Break
Heart Point, that were wrapped with tar

The Office of Prescrptonist is as properly sepa-
rated from that of Physician, the part of the
mechanic who puts work together from that of the
Architect, who plans it. The art Of prescribing aud
the art Of compromising medicines are two different
professions, requiring different training for prof.
cheney in either. But the latter is OF equal respon-
sibility with the "Jrmer, demanding as safe qualif-
cations, thorough Pharmaceutical education and
long practical experience in the manipulation of
drugs To meet these important requirements, |
