I Juhuman Laic.—Soon after the conquest ot ; Constantinople by Mahomet II., a law was pro- I mulgated declaring that all male children born ; into any of the Imperial families should be put to i death immediately after birth, the object being to i secure the nation from trouble touching the suc- I cession to the throne. This law has lately been carried into effect in the case of a male child born : to the wife of Mahmond Baja, daughter of Abdul- j Mejid, the present Sultan of Turkey. The child was strangled a few hours after its birth, despite the tears and supplications of its mother, and the ’ protestations of its father. The inhumanity of the affair has been a good deal discussed in Tur key, and hopes are entertained that a repeal of the law will be the ultimate result.

Coasumplion of Ice in Xew York.—The quan tity of ice consumed in the cities of New Vork and Brooklyn, amounts to the enormous aggregate of 200,000 tons yearly. To insure this supply requires the gro.ss bulk of nearly 300,000 tjn3, as in transportation and delivery one-third liquefies. To obtain this immense mass, nearly 300,000 men are employed during the greater part of the win ter months to cut and store ice. WAATKD, Two young men well acjuainted with business.

The ‘Blood Food,’ is one of the great est medicines of the age, and is rapidly driving out of the market all the quack nostrums of modern times. Its efficacy is so great, and its superiority so justly acknow ledged, that it is found difficult to supply the immense and increasing demand for the article. Dr. Eaton’s celebrated ‘Infantile Cordial.’ is a medicine prepared by a regular physician of eminence in his profession, and one who has devoted his life to the peculiar phases of Infantile diseases. It is no humbujt. but a modicine which commends itself to those only who can appreciate it. ’—Apalachicola, t’lor. Tim»t.
