the State.
The GAZETTE is now the Oldest
paper in the State, and with few
exceptions the Oldest in the coun-
try, and its usefulness has been de.
monstrated and appreciated during
the NINETY.oNE YEARS of its exist.
ence. In its columns has always
been found a mirror Of passing
events and the caseful chronicling
Of the history CT what is going on
in the world has ever been its aim.
1t is always welcomed in the house
hold, while in the counting room
and work shop it has become in.
valuable.
The GAZETTE, situated as it is SO
close to Washington, the great GEN.
ire of news, enjoys daily the bene-
fit of the ASSOCIATED PRESS DIS.
PATCHES from every part Of the
world F.; hence its patrons can read
from its columns in the evening
what has transpired that day in ev-
cry portion of the United States as
well as from every part of the hab.
table globe. Consequently it is
an every. day occurrence for the
GAZETTE to publish kilograms from
the various European capitals about
twelve or fifteen hours earlier than
the morning papers.
Correspondence from Washing
ton, Richmond and every section of
the State is published regularly,
and all events of interest occurring
within the bounds of the Common
wealth are to be found in the COL
umns Of the GAZETTE.
The local department furnishes
full and complete history of every
thing that occurs in and near the
city, and this feature will, as ever,
receive careful attention.
Another feature that serves to
make the GAZETTE a great desider-
alum with merchants is its after
noon market reports from all the
great centres of the country.
The GAzETTE's circulation in this
city is now larger than at any time
IN its history and is steadily increas-
ing, especially among those who
consult its advertising columns be-
fore purchasing.

These scientific paradoxes are grouped
together in Backwood's Magazine: The
water which browns us, a fluent stream,
can be walked upon as ice The bullet
Which, when fired from a musket, carries
death, will be harmless if ground to dust
before being fired. The crystallized part
of the oil of roses, so graceful in its fra
GRANGE, a solid at ordinary temperatures,
though really volatile, is a compound
substance containing exactly the same
elements, and in exactly the same pro-
portions, as the. gas with which we light
our streets. The tea which we daily
drink with benefit and pleasure produces
palpitations, nervous tremblings, and
even paralysis, if taken in excess; yet the
peculiar organic agent called theme, to
which tea owes its qualities, may be
taken by itself (as theme not as teal
without any appreciable effect.
The water which will allay our burn
ing thirst augments it when CONCEALED
into snow, SO that it is stated by ex-
plorers of the Arctic regions that the ma
tives prefer enduring the utmost ex-
tremity of thirst rather than attempt to
remove it by eating snow" Yet if the
snow be melted it becomes drinkable
water Nevertheless, although if melted
before entering the mouth it assuages
d&irst like other water, when melted in
the mouth it has the opposite effect To
render this paradox more striking, we
have only to remember that ice, which
melts. more slowly in the mouth. is very
efficient in allaying thirst.

Female Tobacco Chewers.

The most inveterate chewer of tobacco
would probably experience a revulsion Of
feeling were he to go to Paraguay, where
most of the ''munching of the weed" Is

not water and prsnensin.

Another hydriatic method, which acts
by removing the cause of disturbance, is
the slipping of hot water an hour before
meals, in dyspepsia, writes Dr. S.
Baruch, in Times and Register. The hot
water craze, which now has taken firm
hold upon the lay public, is but the legiti-
mate outcome of valuable therapeutic
application of water, whose simplicity
commends it at once to the Judgment Of
the intelligent physician. Brought into
prominence by DIR. Salisbury, who COM
mitted the error of most enthusiasts Of
regarding it as a panacea for most dis
eases, it has now been adopted by the
Profession as most valuable agent in
many gastric troubles. BY removing the
process of fermentation, by cleansing the
mucous membrane of mucous. it restores
tone and vigor to the gastric lining, and
enables the natural forces to come into
play. 1t is important to observe strict
compliance with the rule laid down by
the originator, viz: that the water should
be slipped as hot rs possible, and that an
hour should elapse before n meal is
taken. Examples of failure due to neg
lect of this rule are numerous in the ex-
perience of all medical men.

Female Detectives,

Several reasons are given by the police
of San francisco for the comparative
failure of women as detectives. First of
all it is said that they cannot visit certain
places without exciting suspicion. Then
they are claimed to be less persevering
than men unless actuated by motives of
jealousy or revenge. Besides they are not
good simulators and are too easily duped
by the Establishments of an innocent APP
pearing female criminal or the iattery Of
a handsome male evil doer. The San Fran
cisco police say that women are really
valuable in spying out evidence for divorce
eases, but it is almost impossible TO get
any respectable woman 10 take up that
class of work.

The Friday market in Tripoli, Barbary,
the town, is picturesque in the extreme.
On all sides the exasperating grating of
well pulleys produces a motif too Wag-

buzzing insects, grasshoppers whirring
shrilly, and the sun scorched palms
cracking their dry branches. In each
garden rise the two arms of a we'll, be-
tween which an enormous leathern bag
mounts and descends on rude wooden
pulley, the chief instrument of the above
mentioned music, discharging at each
trip flood of water.
