A Smart Dog.

The Richmond (Va.) Enquirer re-
lates the following instance Of a dog
testifying in his own behalf in police
court in that city; a
Wednesday, it will be remembered,
Mr. Spears was before the police court,
charged with keeping vicious dog,
and the animal was ordered to be killed.
Subsequently, however, the execution
of the sentence was suspended, as the
evidence upon which he was convicted
was erparte, and a new trial was grant
ed. The case came up yesterday morn
ing, and large number of persons tes-
titled as to the good character of tie
dog, and the whole matter resolved it.
self into the fact that he had scared the
gentleman who complained of his at
lacking MIN by rough play. Neverthe
less, to make assurance doubly sure,
at the request of his master, he was put
upon the stand to testify in his own
case. On being asked if he would bite
any one, he uttered peculiar noise and
shook his head. He was then asked if
he would bite any one if his master sci
him on, and replied in the affirmative
by nodding his head and barking.
When asked if he would bite the court,
he replied in the negative. Severa.
other questions were asked him, anc
his answers and actions exhibited the
greatest intelligence. It is needless tc
say he was honorably acquitted"

Prescription for the Cure of Drunken
ness.

There is curious prescription in En-
gland for the cure of drunkenness, by
which thousands are said to have been
assisted in recovering themselves. The
recipe came into notoriety through the
efforts OF John Vine Hall, father of Rev.
Newman Hall and Capt. Vine Hall,
commander of the Great Eastern steam
ship. He had fallen into such habitual
drunkenness that his utmost efforts to
regain himself proved unavailing. At
length he sought the advice of an emf
nent physician, who gave him a pre-
scrlption which he followed faithfully
for several months, and at the end Of
that time he had lost all desire for
liquors, although he had for many years
been led captive by most debasing APP
petite. The recipe, which he after
wards published, and by which so
many have been assisted to reform, is
as follows: "Sulphate of iron, 5
grains magnesia, 10 grains pepper
mint water, II grains; spirit of nut
meg, / drachm to be taken twice a
day." This preparation acts as tonic
and stimulant, and SO partly supplies
the place of the accustomed liquor, and
prevents that absolute physical and

MexicO's Liberal Inducements to lmmi-
grants

lie person desires to go to Mexico to
live, now is the time to start. For a
plan to encourage immigration, the
law recently passed by the Mexican
Congress surpasses anything in the way
of iberality that we have yet heard Of.
In the first place, according to the Alta
California, it appropriates $500, 900 to
assist immigrants this. year. They are
to be. carried at the expense of the re-
public :" from the place.of their resi-
dence,;" provisions willr-be, furnished
them during the voyage; they will re-
celve, $50 for their support in the first
year, and if they are dissatisfied at the
end of the second year, the republic
will pay their way back to their native
country When fifty families Or more
settle in one colony, they may constitute
a municipal corporation, elect their own
officials and adopt ordinances for their
local government, not inconsistent with
the state and federal laws. Their lands
are to be free from tax Except munich
pal taxes) for five years, and all their
PROVISIONS, tools and material for
houses, shall be imported free of
duty, and any vessel E bringing
more than ten immigrants shall be tree
from tonnage, lighthouse, anchorage
and pilotage duties. All Immigrants
are declared citizens from the moment
of their arrival, and they enjoy all the
political and civil rights of native citi-
zens. Public lands will be set apart for
them, and each man who desires to till
the soil will receive not less than lilo or
more than 1,100 acres, which he can
cultivate without charge for ten years,
and at the expiration of that period may
purchase, either paying the full price
down or one-tenth annually for ten
years more. Sites suitable for towns
will be surveyed, and lot will be offered
to every immigrant, who, however, is not
restricted to lands now wild, but may
settle in any of the towns, cities or
agricultural districts. The law implies
that the immigrant may follow any
mechanical or laboring occupation, and
we presume it intends to give the same
liberty to professions, but these are not
mentioned. @@ 49, /

I CAN 1T BE TRUE ? Within the last
few months a considerable number of
persons have called upon DIR. Walker,
the proprietor of the popular medicine
known as VINEGAR BTrTRRs, and assured
him that. in their belief, his prepare
tion is an infalliDle antidote for rum
and tobacco. The minute details which
have been furnished him forbid him to
doubt the accuracy Of the statements.
This new claim of great remedy to the
confidence of the public will give vast
and well-deserved impulse to it's popu-
larity. Heretofore the BITTERs have
been recognized as pure vegetable
/ tonic and corrective, devoid of alcohol,
and thoroughly adapted to the cure Of
stomach and bowel complaints, nervous
disorders, bilious affections, muscular
diseases, and, indeed, a majority of the
ailments within the reach of medicine
but if it will also cure the craving for
liquor and tobacco, philosophers,
statesmen aRd theologians ought to
unite their voices IN it's praise. Can
the good news be true? 1T is easy to
test the question. aha oAa 81 1oF@a9
