heard some young ladies outside the

THE LAST OF THE VEsPUOOI.
The Fair Descendant Of tho Man Who
Gave His Name to America.

A decided sensation was created al
Washington during the Van Buren ad.
ministration by the appearance there Of
handsome and we'll educated Italian
lady who called herself America Ves-
pucci and claimed descent from the
navigator who gave his name to this
continent. Ex-President Adams and
Daniel Webster became her special
friends and she was soon q welcome
guest in the best society. In few
weeks after her arrival she presented q
petition to Congress asking, first, to be
admitted to the rights of citizenship,
and secondly, to be given Q "coruer of
land' out of the public domain of the
country which bore the name of her
ancestor. An adverse report, which was
soon made, is one Of the curiosities of
Congressional literature. It eulogized
the petitioner as "a young, dignifed
and graceful! lady, with mind of the
highest intellectual culture and a heart
beating with all our own enthusiasm in
the cause of America and human liber.
ty." The reasons why the prayer of the
petition could not be granted were
given, but she was commended to the
generosity Of the American people.
"The name Of America-our country's
be honored, respected
aud cherished in the person Of the in
teresting exile from whose ancestor we
derive the great and glorious title" A
subscription was Immediately opened
by Mr.. Haight, the Sergeant-at-Arms of
the Senate, and Judges, congressman
and citizens We'd with one another in
their contributions. Just then it was
whispered that Nine. Vespucci had
borne al unenviable reputation at Flor
once and at Paris, and had been induced
by pecuniary consideration to break
off an intimacy with the Duke Of Or
eans, Louis Phillippe's Oldest son, and
come to Washington. Soon aficrwsrd
;he Dukes younger brother, tho Prince !
10 Joinville, came to this country and |
'efused to recognize her, which virtu-
lily excluded her from reputable So
'iety. For some years subsequently she
e5ided in luxurious seclusion with a
wealthy citizen of New York, in the in
erior of that State, and after his death,
he returned to Paris.

ANTID0TE FOR SNAKE POISON,

Tread in the papers accounts of people
dying from the bites of rattlesnakes
During long residence in tropical coun.
tries, where ven0m0us snakes abound,
l learned by actual practice that am.
monia given inwardly "a few drops mixed
with water) aud applied outwardly, is
the sure antidote Of suake poison. Since
my return to the United States | have
seen it applied, on my recommendation,
IN two instances, with complete success.
In bo.l eases many hours had elapsed
from the time of receiving the bite until
the ammonia was taken. Applied ard a
dose taken Immediately after the bite, of
course is more e'tectual. AS large a dose
as the patient car stand, without taking
the skin off bis mouth and throat, will
be the guide as to quantity.
On the Amazon river and it's tributaries
l passed many years, aud each one OF our
party carried ammonia in his pocket
when going to the woods and through
the thick underground. 1t is necessary
when l'vIngin i'll that country to look under
