the concerted effort on the part or specula' ors TO

ket. The absence OF cGnsumptiye orders, which,
owing to high. prices here, have been sent to other
markets, has had q depressing effect. and IN some
Instances concessions have been mads. The

UNIVERSAL EXHIBITION OF 1859
FIRsr-cLAss MEDAL
ALF. LABARRAQUE AND Co
OUINIUM @LABARRAQUE

approved By the Imperial Academy
of Medicine
The Quinium Iabarraque is an eminently
tonic and febrifuge Wine, destined to replace
all the other preparations of Peruvian Bark.
The Bark Wines usually employed inme-
dicine are prepared from Banks which vary
considerably in The degree to which they
possess the desired properties. Besides,
owing to the manner in which they are pre-
pared, these Wines contain scarcely more
than the traces Of active principles, and
these always in variable proportions.
The Quinium L~abarraque; approved by
the Academy Of Medicine, constitutes, on The
contrary, a medicine Of determined compo-
sition, rich in active principles, and on witch
Physicians and Patients can always rely.
The Quinium Labarraque is prescribed
with great success for persons Of weak con-
t"ilulion, or for those debilitated by various
exhausling causes OF past sickness for youths
fatigued by too rapid growth; for young
girls whose development takes place with
difficulty; for women in childbirth; and for
aged persons enfeebled by years or illness.
1t is the best preseryatiye against Fevers.
In cases of Cillorosis, Anemia. orGreensik-
ness, This Wine is i powerful auxiliary of
The ferrusinous preparations In conjunction,
for example, with WALLETS Pulls, the rapid
Iy OF its action is really marvellous.

A French newspaper describes the progressive
journalism of Great Britain as follows The
Schot-man is printed on the road from Edin-
burgh 10 Glasgow in wagon belonging to the
paper, which contains printing machine, cases
of type, land quick compOSitorS. During the
journey the edition for the provinces is worked
off, with the addition of the news and kilograms
received on the road"
In Reading, Penn, lives a German, ninety
years of age, who keeps a tavern (Which is
known as Blind Hartman's), is expert in the
handling of money! and battles all attempts to
cheat him with spurious currency, He walks
out alone, can point TO any piece of real proper
ty in the town, and, to crown all, mends clocks
and repairs musical Instruments.
A number of wealthy Hebrews in New York
intend to start daily newspaper there, and say
they are prepared to risk half a million dollars
in such an enterprise, or more if it be required.
They have made an Intellectual effort to buy
several established journals in that city, offer
ing, it is understood, as much as million dol
lars for one of them.
Professor LANCER lately brought under the no.

three OF these, viz, an incisOr and two moars,
were situated in the lower jaw. By the arrange
ment Of those teeth, there are, in each row,
right and left, four large grinders instead of
three. Now, it is well known fact that the
monkeys of the new world have thirty-sN teeth
with four mOlars, just as they stood in Prof.
Langer's negro skull. This is considered strong
evidence by the humano-simian party.
The mystery enShrouding the murder of
Sharon Iyndale, eX-secretary of state of Illinois,
in public street in Springfield, H., over year
ago, is in a fair way Of solution. 1t appears
that one of the highwaymen who committed the
bloody deed is named James Canedy, who, a
short time subsequent to the tragedy was ar.
rested, tried and sentenced to one year in the
state penitentlary, as a confidence operator
The governor has pardoned him out of the pen
itentiary, his term being about to expire, and he
will at once be arrested, and taken TO Springfield
for trial. The case has been worked up under
the direction of Gov. Palmer and G. NJ. Morrison
of Chicago, who have given their personal at
tention TO the collecting of testimony Mr.
Charles L. Askins, a shrewd farmer living in st.

coin, Greeley, and Richmond were seated in this
handsome coach chatting in free and easy
manner. "This is something like, Dean" said
Greeley, "but why don't you have all your cars
made in this way? The common miserable old
things are nothing but a nuisance" 1--WE adopt
improvements as they are invented" was the re-
plv, "but the changes have TO be gradual; we
cannot afford to throw aside substantial cars
that have cost a great deal of money, and stock
the road with those that are more expensive
merely TOR the comfort of passengers. When
ever we build new ones, we incorporate all avail
able improvements"
"Oh, that's no excuse" was Greeley's re-
ioinder. "Thc people confer upon you corpora

ANCIENT AND MODERN CoMBs.-Combs are
an embl m of civilization almost as much as
knives and forks, or soap and towels The old
Greeks and Romans, and even the Egyptians,
made use of these articles, though the fashion
OF them was different from that of the present
day. Some of our readers may bave seen in
their grandmothers' garrets, specimens of the
0ld-tme comb, as much larger than ours as the
old-tme bonnets were larger than the modern
ones. The first horn combs manufactured in this
country were made IN West Newbury lust after
the revolutionary war. Hessan settled there
who was accustomed 10 the working of horns
into buttons and combs, and from him the art
IL the rude workmanship of that day was wor
tive population West Newbury has continued
TO lead in the business ever since, aud to-day is
one Of the largest comb-making towns in Mas
sachusetts. Besides West Newbury, Leomins-
ter, Clinton and NOrthboro' used to be noted as
comb towns, though all suffered more or less
from the competition Of the rubber manufacto-
ries. Forty years ago, ladies' combs, which
were larger than ladies' b0nnets are now, used
TO be made in Newburyport for the South Amer
lean market. They were often two or three feet
WIDE, encircling two-ihrds of the head, and from
9 inches TO a foot high ON the back, the top being
wrought in open work; and to these the Spanish
American ladies attached their wells. One comb
consumed three horns, or an equal quantity of
shell and as much Of the work was done by
hand aud with the saw aud the polishing was
entirely manual labor! the lprices were high
from Si6 TO $50.
