Family Medicines.
rnl HKE medicines are recommen!ed
and extensively nspd by the most intel
ligent persons in the United States, by nu
merous Professors and Presidents of Col
leges, Physician' of the Arm v and Navy,
and tif Hospitals and Almshouses, and S3
more than five hundred Clergymen of vari
ous denominations.

use, and have acquired an unprecedented
popularity throughout the United Stat.psrj

preserve health and cure disease, no
family should ever be without them. The
proprietor of these valuable preparations
received his education at one of the best
Medical Colleges in the United States, and
has had twenty years experience in an. ex
tensive and diversified practice, by which
he has had ample opportunity of acquiring
a practical knowledge of 'diseases;' & of the
remedies best calculated to remove them.

LAURA BRIDGMAN.
This remarkable case of one born blind &
deaf, has excited atttention throughout the
world. Dickens devoted to it. savs the
Picayune, one of the best chapters of his
work on the United States. Though de
prived of the, two most essential or
gans of sense," the humane efforts of
Dr. Howe, of Connecticut, have enabled
her to communicate with her fellow-beings
to an exteut most extraordinary. An ex
hibition of blind children fromsome benev
olent institution of Massachusetts was re
cently made before the New Hampshire
Legislature. The Statesman makes the
following mention of the progress of mind
indicated by the examination of Laura
Bridgman. The result shows a wonderful
triumph over deprivations which ' some
years since were deemed incurable; and af
fords much to encourage the institutions
for the deaf and blind wisely and humane-
Iv provided for by the last Legislature of
North Carolina:
The exercises by this young lady were
peculiarly interesting, showing the aston
ishing progress, which under modern dis
covery, a being upon whose eyes no light
has ever dawned, whose ears no sounds en
ter, and whose tongue has never aided in
speech, can make in the acquisiiion
of knowledge, even under such afflictive
circumstances as attended this individual.
She answered questions in geography, with
great readiness, rapidly plying-her fingers
over a map of the world, designed for the
blind; and read, with much apparent ease,
from the books of raised letters. An elder
female pupil, a subleacher, stood at the side
of Laara, the left hand of the latter resting
upon the right hand of the assistant pupil,
and as Laura read, by running her5 right
hand over the raised letters, with the rapid
motions of her left-she communicated the
words to her fellow pupil, who announced
them to the assembly. ?

, Outrageous Doings. A letter from
Hartford to the N. York Herald says, that
on the morning of' the 25th, a disgrace
ful disturbance occurred between, some "of
the students ,and the professors of Trin
ity College. That one Professor; had
his nose broken, c another ' had. ' ' his
shoulder dislocated; and, three or four
studentswere "badly injured by ' mis
siles thrown at the Professors. The win
dows of the Faculty were pelted and inju
red in various ways. It is added that one
Professor had recently obtained a splendid
pair of statues frorrr Europe these weie
taken in front of tHe College .and. smashed
to pieces., t Iength.the faclty vWith a
strong of police, appeared and a rested the
ringleader, which cooled the ardor jo' the
rest. The letter addsri . 1
. They have dispersed, u i Jsrumpred
that the students will attempt, a .rescue to
niffht., but the college is , tinder a .strong
guard, of police. The highest- degree of I
excitement prevails. 1 he students win
not acknowledge that they have had any
disturbance whatever, but affirm -that the
performances -went off quiet I v. But me
t hin ks,; (hat if one would visit the scene of
demolition, he would be convinced to
the contrary. , ' -
The origin of the trouble is thus alluded
to.. ! :'i:f' -- .C o ' vi-- --:' ;" "v.
In the morning there was a great distur
bance at Trinity. College which - is the
principal exciting topic Of conversation at
present; and as 1 vvaa spectator of tlte per
formance, 1 give you an account of it. 'lhe
students made extensive preparations for
laying the corner stone of a new; building,
(not! the new wing, but a large brick en ifice
in 1 lie rear of the college) and had provideH
masquerade dresses, banners, etc and their
preparations were on a very large scale,and
got up at considerable expense. The pro-
c edings were sanctioned,, by snme of the
faculty. -At 8 o'clock this morning th
students assembled en masse, and formed
their procession. ; They had proceeded but
a short distance, when they were stopped
by the faculty, who roughly laid hands on
tne marshal
who was riding, and pulled
his horse. Notwithstanding
him from
his the procession moved on, when the
faculty each seized hold of a student, and
endeavored to break up the' procession.
The student, indignant at these proceed
ings seized hold of whatever they could
reach, stones, brickbats, clubs, &c.

Restoring the Dead to Life. On the

A Oirl Strangled to Death by a
Snake. A little girl, about eight years ol
age, was strangled by a snake last week,
near JJainbridge, in Lancaster count', . Pa.
She had been sent to gather blackberries in
a field, a short distance from the house,
and being absent a longer time than usual,
her parents proceeded to look for her.
They found her quite dead, with a large
black snake coiled around her neck. ,
- A Perilous Descent. As a party of
young ladies and gentlemen were amusing
themselves with a rural walk, on
the
of July inst ,' one of the number, Miss
M o fiaU, at Varna, approached the bank of
Fall creek, at a point near the dam, about
a mile up the stream, to obtain a view of the
precipice. Seizing hold of a bush for sup
port, and fascinated by the beauty of the
scene, she incautiously leaned too forward
by which the bush giving way,' she was
precipitated over the hank, a perpendicular
fall ot eighiy-two feet? One would sup
pose that instant extinction of life must be
the necessary' consequence of such a de
scent; but fortunately she was received in
water three and half feet deep, from which
she scrambled upon dry land, considerably
(lightened, but not .seiiously injured, hot
hayirig even lost her presence ot mind, for
supposing alter smsing inenvater mat sne
might be carried down by the force of the
current she had drawn off a glove, to ena
able hetself to seize hold of any. thing that
she might be able to reach, to lurresl her
progress. - iica Chronicle.
