BIC WONDER" THERMoMETER.-Mr M.
A. Finnell of New York, has produced a
Thermometer which is truly big wonder of
an instrument. The instrument is itself a
wonder in size, and more of a wonder for its
cheapness. The wonder is, that an instru-
ment heretofore costing some fifteen dollars,
can be afforded for the very moderate price
charged for this. The Thermometer is mount
ed on wood from thirty to forty inches in
length, painted white, and vanished, with
black walnut trimmings, and with very tasty
colored vignette. The lettering, figures and
degree marks, are black and plain; the fluid
being rich solfarino it may be read with ease
across large sized room. The bulb is pro-
tected by freight guard. The whole is at
tractive and ornamental, and its accuracy we
are assured, can be depended upon. sE
The price is only $500. d. B. Russell &
Co., IS Cornhill, Boston, are the manufacture
er's agents for the United States. The instru-
ments are for sale in this city, by J. Hanker-
son G. Co., 100 Middle Street.

LEvEE OF CHESTNUT STREET SOCIETY,"
This exhibition at City Hall last evening
drew crowded audience. The tableaux were
very fine and got up in good taste. The oc-
casion was enlivened by music from the Port

furnished, and some excellent viands were to
be had for little currency. We have seldom
witnessed more gratifying exhibition. Those
who have had the management of this affair
are entitled to much credit for preparing such
pleasant treat. All were highly pleased and
the occasion passed off to the satisfaction of
the crowded audience. The Monk" drew
