SOMETHING WORTH KNowiNo.--It has been ascertained that small piece OF rosin, dipped in vessel of warm water on the stove, will impart to the atmos- phere peculiarly pleasant and ag eea- able odor, exceedingly beneficial to per- sons who are afflicted with coughs and colds, as it gives them speedy relief, or at least eases the severity OF their coughs. The heat Of the water throws off the ar oma Of the rosin, and supplies the same desideratum as that afforded by COM bustion Of the rosin. We are strongly of the opinion that this method will be preferable to the combustion, because the evaporation is more durable. The same rosin may be used for number weeks.

The Tuscaloosa Observer says: We were shown last week some samples of cotton ades, ginghams, checks and osnaburgs, colored and plain, made at the factory in Huntsville, which for quality and durability would compare with similar goods made in the manufacturing towns of the North. The colored goods were excellent, and were we not assured to the contrary, we should have pronounced them Eastern goods.- The factory at Florence is doing a thrifty business. It works 46 looms, turning 600 splndles, and producing SO,OOO yards of cloth per week. Besides this large amount of cloth, it manufactures also 6,O0O dozen of thread per week. The weekly consumption of cotton is about 6,OOO pounds, averaging 75O bales of cotton per year. As an instance of the prosperity of factories in this region, new one is about being established on the same stream, on the opposite side, which it IS calculated will consume 40 bales of cot. ton per week. The factory in this city is about increasing the number of looms. At this time it works only 40, which are chiefly employed in manufacturing four qualities o goods. In few weeks the present number will be increased to p. The cloths made at this factory are in high repute, and meet with ready sales. THE PRESIDENTS FAMILY-The Detroit Tribune says that Mir.

The PrussianS Driven from St Cloud back on Versailles. Tours, Oct 12.-The Ministry has just received the following news of an impor- tant French victory. The courier who brought the intelligence was permitted to pass through the Prussian lines. The battle occurred Friday the 7th:s Just between Fort Valerien and st. Cloud, on the west side of Paris, the French, under Gen. Ducrot, having made sortie in force, the Prussians were com pletely defeated and were forced to retreat to Versailles, entirely surrendeTing the position they had lately occupied, from which they could have shelled the west ern part of Paris. The War of determination. Advices from various parts of France repeat the statements that the Prussians are committing the greatest atrocities upon helpless towns where the Francs Tireurs gain advantages. The Prussians have not only seized the authorities of towns and demanded restitution for the captured Prussians on pain of death of the authorities and the burning of towns, but have also exscted that the Francs Tireurs shall be delivered up for execu- ton. In view of this frghtful state of affairs the Government is reported to have brought the subject to the attention of the Prussian military authorities as well as TO the foreign ambassadors in France.

The following account of the latent nitro-glyeerine accident is too funny to be withheld: This horrible tale was related to me by Archibald Haggerty, the young gentleman who blacks boots: "Mr. Quill, you see Joe McGinnis and me, and lot of US fellers, was a playin' marvels down to Pine street wharf one day, and Joe McGinnis had no luck. He blowed on his alley, and said cOnjurin' over it, and spit on it, and said fen everythings, but 'twan't no use, for us fellers won his common ers, and his bull's-eye, and his glass agate, and his white alleys, until Joe Just burst out cyyin', and went and set down on board, and rubbed his fists into his eyes like he was tryin' to gOuge 'em.
