FROM NEW YORK.

New YoRK, April 5.-Vsra Cruz is in
a state of siege. Sixteen thousand men
with FIVE pieces of artillery are inside.
Provisions are high, and there is nc
blockade from the sea side. Outside oil
the city there are 5000 men with four
small Napoleon field pieces, but more
men and guns are expected daily.
Mejia is in Querataro with 10000
men and no money or provisions. Out
side there are $4,000 liberals. Mesida
and Yucatan are also in state Of siege.
At meeting of the New York Metho-
dist conference to-day, Bishop James, in
ptopounding questions to the candidates
for membership, advised them that the
changes of public sentiment must be
noted or you cannot reach the people,
he says, by sermons preached ten years
ago; he would make his ministry sue
cessful in society; and called attention
to the periodicals, literature and news
papers of the day, to substantiate his re-
mark.
Prof McClintock, of the Drew theo-
logical seminary, in the course of some
remarks thereon, recommended the send
ing ofintelligent colored as well as white
men there, which sentiment was ap.
plauded.

Drinking Water.

Three weeks ago we published an account
Of Peter Lykc, Of Anes, vomiting up a snake.
Since that time there has been and is Low
qlite a controversy in the newspapers. and
amone medical men, az to whether amphibi-
ous reptiles can live in the human stomach---
We copy the following from the Utica Herald
Lizards are said to abound In the water at
Detroit. 4 person who drank from O '.pen-
stock believed he swallowed lizard, which
he found unpleasant. The fact was stated in
the Adceyti5sr when raightway 1T was asser-
ted that if he had swallowed q lizard it would
do him no harm, for it could not live in such
quarters as the human stomach. The opinion
OF DR.. Dalton was cited 10 prove the assertion;
tic opinion being based upon experiments
with dogs. Between the believers in lizards
living in the stomach and those believing in
their dying, if swallowed, a lively controversy
arose.
There seem to be facts proving that snakes
and lizards may be swallowed and live in the
stomach for long time. We find the state
ment IN the papers that Peter Lyke OF Ames,
Montgomery county, swallowed small water
snake three years ago, while in the army, and
since his return home has been unwell and
unable TO sleep except after drinking quart
OF water. His rhy y-ician finally gave him
some medicine and told him TO abstain from
food twenty-tour hours. He obeyed the dis
reci ous, aud Was taken with vomiting, which
lie ended by pulling from his mouth a snake,
copper colored and over foot IN length The
raptile was placed in a bottle of water, alive
and ravenous for potatoes. We have heard of
a case al sanqeit Springs, where snake was

ing vessel Of new milk before her. so that
she could inhale The vapor from it. His snake
ship came out to eat, and did not 90 back
Several years ago, John Cooksen, of Montpei-
ier. Vermont, swallowed a lizard while drink
ing from spring in the hay field, not know
ing il 10 be lizard at the time. 1t gave him
no trouble immediately. But in a few months
he began TO have spells Of great distress and
WAS compelled to quit work, losing flesh and
strength. In one OF these turns he summoned
physician, who gave him powerful emetie.
Thus assisted, Mr.. Loosson yomited creature

food with good appetite. Cookson regained
his l.ealth soon atter the tenant was elected
from his stomach, where lie had been resi-
dent for two years. The facts appear to be
conclusive as to the healthness Of the stomach
as resident for these creatures. They can
sand it beiter than person can. With tho
possibiliics before them, it behoyes persons
drinking water from springs, pumps, or pen.

The Bewitching New Fashions.


ssMark Twain admires the present fashion
of women's walking dresses, and he thus elo-
quenily sings their praise:
.Who shall describe the exquisite taste and
beauty of the new style of ladies' walking
dresses. Taken as a class, women can con-
triye more oatlandish and ugly costumes than
one woald think possible without the gift Of
inspiration. But this time they have been
i.ito9s in Invention, The wreiehed water
fall still remains, OF course, but in modified
form; every change it has undergone was for
the better. First, it represented bladder OF
Scotch snuff; next it hung down the women's
back like a cansass-eoyered ham; afterward
it contracted and counterfe,ed turnip ON
the back Of the head; now, it sticks straight
out behind, and looks like wire muzzle on
gray -hound. Nesting in the midst of this
long stretch of head and hair reposes the little
batter cake Of a bonnet, like a jockey saddle
on race horse. You will readily perceive
that looks very unique, and pretty and co.
quettish.
sBut the glory Of the costume is the robe
the dress. No furbelows, no founces, no BIZ
ases, no ruffics, cores, no iutterwheeis, no
hoops to speak OF f-nothing but rich plain,
narrow black dress, terminating just below
the knees with long saw teeth lpoinis down.
ward), and under it a flaming red skirt,
enough to put your eyes out. that reaches
down only to the ankle bone and exposes the
restless little feet. Fascinating, charming,
seductive, bcwitching! To see lovely girl
of seventeen, with her saddle on her head and
her muzzle on behind, and her vail just cov>
ering her nose, come tripping along in her
hoopless, rcd-botomed dress, like churn on
fre, it is enough to set a man Wild. I must
