McN AIR'S ACOUSTIC OIL The deaf from infancy, often receive in a most miraculous manner their hen ring when they least expect it, by the use of this Oil, which shows theni liow easily they might tntuli sooner have had their hearing and saved themselves and their friends the pain ot conversing in a loud tone, without pleasure, or of being neglected and shunned, to avoid that distress which is felt mutually by the deaf person and hie hearers. How sacred a duty therefor it is, that we use all necessary means to remove such an affliction, and enjoy the social qualities implant ed in our natures ! This Ear Oil Ims the effect so to relieve the tension, and bring int use the natural action of the parts, as to restore the hear ing when lost or iinp iireJ. This is proved by so i mm- well known cases, that where known, il needs no praise. The gr at wish of the proprie tor is, that each may speak to others of its un common vjrtu s, till suff. rcrs may know and be relieved and restored by its use 1 Known by my signature on the Mask.

MrStanbrouh having great con fidence in his Wheel, not only that it would ob viate the difficulty with back water, but he was willing io jruarantee that it would drive all the machinery and save one-third the water then used; nnj having executed to the company a bond in SflO'l for that purpose, it was determined to lit him make the trial, which I am happy to say has resulted very satisfactorily, and that he has fairly and fullv fill Tiled his contract, and I would recom mend his wheel to public notice.

The drivet jumped off his box, and found that he bad drove into a car iole, demolished it, and split an Irishman and two womeu. The driver somewhat en raged that the gallant Hibernian should keep the middle of the road, gave him a pretty se vere lecture, and concluded by asking him il he did not see "be light on the stage. "Ye-, and to be sure and I did, and I drove tight bet waoe them.' . Bob, is that dog of yours a pointer ?" " No, he is half-hunter and half-setter.

L Volume 8 Number 438 AN INDIAN MASSACRE OF THIRTY AMERICAN TEAMSTERS. s The apprehensions entertained in the, Arkansas county of serious difficulties v?ith the Indians of that region, of which we have before made mention, appear-to have been but too well founded. Information has been received at St. Louis of a wholesale murder of teamsters by a combined force of Pawnees, Cauisnches, and Arapahoes about 1 .000 atroti;j. The information was brought to St. Louis by 'a son of a Delaware chief v.horn they took prisoner, bnt after wards liberated. He states that thisformi T. w,nn, Hr-ivnh .nH nnmninL ed only by the drivers and eight or ten horse men. The Indians surrounded them and charging suddenly dro'e the teamsters from their saddles, and massacred every man of the party ! The wagons were loaded with government stores, which, wilh the mules the Indians appropriated to their own use. The day succeeding this massacre, young N3cotna was permitted to depart, having been p'eseuted with a fine large Ameri can mule. This animal bears the maik U. S.," and has been recognized as one of those belonging to a government train which left Fort Leavenworth a few weeka since. When Nacoma left Westport, Major John Doug-herty, who recently started for Santy Fe with 550 head of cattle, was there lor the purpose of employing more men Near Council Grove, his herd made a stam pederami 150 escaped. It was to go in search of these that the additional aid would be required. Council Grove is 140 miles) distant from Westport. The Delawares were preparing to send a war party against the Osages. The latter tribe have recently taken three Dataware scalps. In addition to the above, Mr Barclay-, who had arrived at Weston, reported that two of the men attached to the return gov ernment tram which be was conducting were murdered by Indhns nearWalnut Creeks They were one an American, the other a Spauiard a little in advance of the train when they were attacked. The American was killed on the spot ; the other was still alive, and was being brought in, wilh the loss of his scalp. The Indians took the guns and mules of the men. A COMEDY IN HEAL LIFE. The residents on the Sixth avenue, New York, were uti Vednesday treated to a very effective comedy by a couple of amateur performers, who went through their parts so well that it is generally believed they have had considerable practice in the same line. The main incidents of the piece were as follows : A gentleman went to his dinner, and hav ing suffered a trifling loss from a fall in stocks, was disposed to make up for It by venting his disappointment upon the unof fending members of his family. This is a very old practice among married gentlemen and wives ought by this time to be used to it, as lobsters are to being boilded alive But the wife of this gentleman did'nt exact ly understand her mission; and when he remarked that there was too much pepper in the pot-pie, and that the dinner generally was not fit for a ho, she replied that if she had known it was to be eaten by a hog she would have made it fit for him. This of course led to a spirited reply; and the lady, at last, forgetting the humility so becoming; in a wife, jumped up in a passion and dashed her plate on the floor. Oho!' exclaimed the husband, ifyou are going to play that game 1 will be up with you I" So he seized a tureen and smashed it against the crimson sola. The lady, uot to be outdone, upsets the table, and so smashes all the crockery at one blow and then dares her husband to go on. To show that he was full of spirit as his wife, the gentleman fling a water goblet at the rrencn clock on tne mantle piece overturns his wife upon the floor, and darts the chair in which she was sitting- through the window into the street then tosses the mirror which hung in the room after it. Having finished the work of destruction inside, he rushed into the street and began Io demolish the chair and the remains of the mirror While engaged in this, a body of M. P.'e who had been sent for, made their appear ance, and took the spirited gentleman into custody. He asserted his right to destroy his own property, and remonstated with the M. P.'s on their impertinent interference The officers of the law admiiiedhia right to destroy his property, but denied the lawful ness of doing it in the striet ; and for that offence they took him otTto the station-house. where we lost sight of him, and remain in profound ignorance of the winding-up of the comedy. From the turbulent and nnhaDDv conduct of thi piece, we see th wisdom of the old dramatists in ending their comedies with a marriagef instead of berinnin? with their , dramatic personages in that blessed condi tion.
