C. DUCREUx'S PATENT
For Instantaneous Detachment Of Horses
from Carriages. aa7 ~

THIS INGENIOUS AND VERY USls-
L full invention, which has been patented in the
United States, France and England. is now offered
by the subscriber to the pu 'lic. feeling assured
they will find it, upon examination, one OF the
greatest inventions of the age.
Prominent among its advantages are:
FIRsc-The facility with which horses may be
,rnessed to or embarrassed from Ca riaye; also,
rendering it unnecessary for tt person uuDarness
ing to pass between behind the horses as is GUS
tomary, thus avoiding any liability of being kicked
SEcOND-In case of horse falling. he may be
loosed from tho carriage in second, without the
DR. yer leaving his seat. 1t is simple in its opcr-
alton that a child can work it.
THIRD AND GREArEsT-In case of horses tasins
fright, becoming unmanag able or running away.
the terrib consequences which so frequently fol-
low may all be avoided by this simple application
to arriages, as the horses be toosed from the
Carriage I'm t,oinksing." and the Carriage as
quickly and SAT ly stopped.
Mr. g. DUCREUX gave several PUBLIC exhibit
tions. The great favor and praise manifested by
the public on these occasions. is one OF the evil
dences Of a popular appreciation of its merits.
Terms may be known and orders received for ap-
ply ing the patent to Carriages purchase of State

ed again in the likeness OF Miss North
am, arrayed as to her person in the cool
est and freshest of morning-dresses, and
as to her spirit in the calm consciousness
of her last victory over Dewitt, whom
she had reduced the night before to a
state bordering on idiocy.
She listened to Nettie's triumphal re-
lation with the quiet dignity of recog-
nized superiority, and advised her to
continue in the same course. And that
Nettie might have every advantage of
position, she invited her to tea, the low
ers to come in during the evening, after
they had been sufficiently talked over by
their respective owners.
Whether Miss Sophy's interest in this
little affair arose from the fact that her
genius for hirsatian was so great that her
own province was too small for her am
bition and she sighed for new worlds to
conquer, or whether she had "that sort
of itch for settling other peoples desti-
HES" which Charles Reade-say is one
of the commonest forms of sanctioned
lunacy, or whether she had really work
ed herself up into the belief that she
was female missionary and doing a
vast deal of good, l cannot undertake to
say leave it to the readers of the
STATESMAN to determine.
But Sophy Northam, clever as she
was, had made one little mistake. She
had prescribed one of Morton De Wits
doses for the inner system of John Mar
shall. To be sure, as this brilliant STRAIT.
egist argued, all men are alike, especial.
ly when they are in love; but still, in
every human machine, like every patent
lock, there are sundry out-of-the-way
twists and turns which make it little
different from every other machine, and
make it rather more complicated and
difficult to manage.
