CuREFoR NEURALGIA. Some time
since we published, at the request OF
a friend, a recipe to cure neuralgia.
Half drachm OF sal ammonia, i'll an
ounce of camphor water, to be taken
a teaspoonfull at dose, and the dose
repeated several times, at intervals
of five minutes, if the pain be not
relieved at once. Half n dozen diff
fercnt persons have since tried the
recipe, and in every case an immedi.
ate cure was effected. In one, the
sufferer. lady, had been affected for
more than a week. and her physician
was unable to alleviate her suiierings
when a solution of sal ammonia in
camphor water relieved her in sew

DECIDED AND TRUE.-Deforc much
benefit is derived from tho Atlantic
Gable, as a medium for the trans
mission of intelligence, remarks the
Cincinnati Commercial, it will be
necessary to have some persons in
Europe, to send reports, who know
what hews is. Just now the ocean
telegraph seems to be in the hands
OF spectators and fools. The first
message through it, that peace was
actually declared in Europe, was a
talsehood. The second sensation,
that there had been another gunpow-
der plot in London, was scarcely
founded on fact. The incident of
finding a small bag of gunpowdcr
which had been thrown over q
fence near the Parliament House,
was hardly worth recording in a
London newspaper. The story tha,
war is about to be resumed between
Austria aud Prussia is untrue. A

EcoNoMY.-A slight knowledge of
human nature will show that when
man gets on little in the world,
he is dcsirous of getting on little
further. Such is the growth of
providcnt habits that it has been
said that if a journeyman lays by the
first dollar, he is on the high road to
fortune. 1t has been remarked by
one who has paid great attention to
the state of the !aboring poor, that
he never knew an instance of a man
who had saved money having after
wards to depend on public bounty.
We may add that those individuals
who saved money are, III the long
run, the most reliable workmen ;
If they do not perform the work
better, they behave better and are
more respectable. 81 would SOON
er," says man of experience on
this subject, "havc in my trade Il
hundred men who save money, than
two hundred men who would spend
every shilling they earn" In pro-
portion as individuals save little
there is a SUI erior tone gi,en 10
their morals; they behave better for
knowing that they have alittle stake
in society.

A FIRE ExTINGUIsnINa CART
RIDGE.-The latest invention in
France is sort of cartridge, con-
tanning Ingredients which are capa-
bic of extinguishing fire. This is
effected by the sudden developement
of large quantity of hydrochloric
acid gas, The scientific principle
has long been known, but it has
never been put into practical form.
The cartridge resembles brown pa.
per parcels, and are Of two sizes.
No. 1 is about eight inches long and
two and half inches wide, and is
intended to be thrown by the hand
into the heart of the fire. A string
is also attached By which it may be
projected as from sling. The cars
fridge is slightly explosive, SO as to
scatter tho substance producing the
extinguishing gas. No. 2, or the
second-size cartridges, are simply
thrown (the covering being torn off)
into the water of the engines, which
they saturate substance producing
hydrochloric acid gas as soon as the
water touches the fire. Experiments
have proved that one-tenth Of the
water that would have been neces-
sary to extinguish a fire is only requi.
cite when the cartridges are mixed
with it, and that the saving of time
is in the same ratio. They are very
expensive. a F

AN EARTHLY ANoEL.-The New
York Sm relates the following,inci-
dent:
AS train of cars was last week
approaching the Suspension bridge,
near Niagara, the conductor found n
young man that could not pay his
fare. The pooc fellow was evident
ly III the last stage of consumption,
and emaciatcd to skeleton proper
ions. lie sat by himself, and his
eyes were red, as though from weep
ing; but the laws of the company
could not be transgressed, and he
must leave the train. Not a person
moved or spoke as the conductor led
him from his seat, all shivering
with cold; but just as he reached
the door beautiful girl arose from
her seat, and, with bright, spark
ling eyes demanded the amount
charged for the poor invalid. The
conductor said eight dollars, and the
young and noble girl took that sum
from her pocket book and kindly
led the sick youth back to his scat.
The action put to shame several
men who had witnessed it, and
they offered to "pay half" but the
whole souled woman Indignantly re-
fused the assistance. When the
train arrived in Albany tho young
protectress gave the poor invalid
money enough to keep him over
night and send him to his friends
next morning.

such an ingenious, saucy, fascinating
little beggar. Miss Agatha, who
had quick. native perception of
what was truly good, prophesied
great success Tor her. The following
year hcrprophesy was fulfilled. The
same young girl, Jenny Lind, ap-
reared in the character of Agatha,
in the "Huntcr's Bride" and won
such immense admiration that the
orchestra, forgetting themselves,
paused to listen to her heavenly

enchanting vocal powers, but her
thorough womanliness, her Christian

make Madame Goldschmidt so be-

There is very general impression
