Ode to the TOOthIeSS.

Come all who toothless, let us reason together
Let wisdom now prompt you to ask yourself Wheeler
To do without teeth new and good found at Stevens
Just think of days gone when your teeth all good
When you ate with such relish the coarsest of f,od
But now staryngye mulchng. from morning TIL even
When you might eat with pleasure just by calling at
Stevensi
Then that ugly lsphth with that bad broken TOOTH
My friend you are guilty of most shameful sloth-
Thus to pain all about you not excepting self even.
While new teeth can be had just by calling at Stevens
And then what pity you're so young and SO fair.
Eyes bright new buttons. and killing pretty hair,
That you're called the ''old maid of some seventy
times seven,
When you might be the 'bell," just by calling at
Stevens
And you too "od bach.,' good enough is the name.
You've business thus toothless, it's really shame,
When you might be admired by both sexes even
If you'd show your good sense just by calling at
Stevens!
And husbands. and wives. warn you take heed
The loss OF a tooth a enforcement may lead.
It's age of upheavas, and the best families eyen
Better keep the teeth good by calling at Stevens!

THE PROBLEM OF AIR NAyIaATroN :


Prot. ). A. King, the aeronaut, was in
Buffalo week before last, and was inter-
viewed on balloon matters. Prof. King
intends soon to build mammoth bal
loon Of Sea Island cotton in which he
will ascend from Buffalo about the last
of August or the lst of September. It's
capacity will be 10000 cubic feet of
gas. "Prof. King" the Courier says,
.'does not take much stock in the enter
prise OF Prof. Wise to cross the ocean by
air ship. His experience demonstrates
that a current of air from West to East
does not exist at any height. While
under certain circumstances an aeronaut
might sail over the Atlantic and land
safely in Europe, he scouts the idea that
such mode of transit is reliable over a
large body of water. Yet in the propos-
ed ascension Prof. King will rise as high
and travel as far as possible, and ado
all that lies in his power to scientific
knowledge of aerial navigation.

SPANISH AFFAIRs.-The news from
Spain is certainly not very encouraging
for the new Republic. Cabinet Minis
tiers are changed more rapidly than our
Government changed comanders Of the
Potomac Army during the darkest days
of the late war. The Carlists are gain
ing ground, while several States have
declared their independence. The off,
GERS Of the new Republic are not idle,
but misfortunes seem to have inspired
them with stronger resolutions and in
duced the Inauguration of more string
ent measures. 1t now looks as though
the decisive struggle must soon take
place. 1t promises to be bloody, but we
have hope that victory may finally perch
upon the standard of the Republic. Men
who fight for a free government are in
vincible. They cannot be whipped and
conquered by the minions of despotism.
Spain has not got as much genuine Re-
publican sentiment as she should have,
and it may be that the new Government
will fail, yet We feel disposed to believe
that success will finally be on the side
of the Republic. Journal
