At a recent meeting Of the Board of
Health of New York, letter was received
from Dr. Harris concerning cholera in the
west. He says the disease has not become
epidemic this summer at any point west of
the Aleghenies or north of the Ohio, but is
spreading ia fearful manner west of the
Mississippi, upon the great routes of travel.
The Zingari Bitters will prevent and cure
cholera as well as all other affection of the

A MARRIAGE took place at Concord, Y.
H., the other day, in which the bride was
only sixteen years Of age, and widow at
that. She was married the first time
when she was only thirteen years old.
The bridegroom on this occasion was
twenty four years old. early and often
seems to be her motto.
A YOUNG English nobleman, resident
in Paris, possessed of considerably more
money than brains, lost $4,000 in gam
bling at one sitting, to a female; hired the
whole of a theater for himself and party
of friends, and would allow no one else 10
attend the performance; and has taken to
driving four donkeys in his carriage
The other day. says an exchange, a
young lady called at the house of a friend
and seeing couple of not large-sized pin
cushions lying upon table, which, upon
inquiry, she found had been in use for
five years, suggested to the lady of the
house that it would be good idea to rip
them open and get the needles. At this
the lady laughed and replied that she
thought it would hardly pay but upon
the other insisting that she would find as
many as 800, the experiment was finally
tried. when, to the astonishmcnt of all
|, 800 needles were counted out
