MISCELLANY. :; , , FORE1QN. ; ; THE -CZAJL'9 60AP FROM CAPTOltB ; LThe circuoistancei of Xhe Czar's" narrow escape from capture Tjjt a British-Reamer i t tbe Gulf of Finland, are thus stircA : 4 While the allied fleets were ljin before " Ctpnstadt, an English jyacht belonging to lotds Li chfleld and Eustan, with Lord Clarence Haget ou board, ventured some what too near the guns of the place. Sud lenljr a puff of steam was seen on the Rus sian side, and a small Russian steamer put out to sea. with 'the evident intention of cutting off ihe English yacht. Oa board of that steamer were the Czar Nicholas his oa the Archduke Constantine, the Arch duchess his wife, and the Russian Admi ralr who all went forth to enjoy the satis faction of an easy triumph over the poor little, yacht.- - . . An Englisli'war steamer seeing the dan ger to which; the yacht was exposed, ad vanced with ait speed to her relief. Short ly she obtained' such a position that the KngKsh yacht-was safe; and the', only question that-remained for discussion was one between the two small war steamers " the one under English and the other un der Russian colors. Could. the English but have known the valuable freight which that steamer contained could the captain bufhave known that by capturing her, or sending her to the bottom, peaee would have been restored to Europe, and proba bly a million human lives, first and last, be saved, no doubt he would have carried one or other of the alternatives into effect; even though bis own destruction,- that of 'his ; ship, md of every soul oa board of her had ' been the inevitable consequence. A it was, he .saw nothing before him but a little trumpery steamer he had car ried his purposb of. relieving the English yacht into effecfr and remembered orders, which certainly had beeir issued, to the ef fect that no English ship, upon the: mere heroic impulse of her commander, should he thrust into the lion's mouth. We have " no doubt that this. 'was so, and that v wbru' the English captain gave his orders for put . ting thfl head of hiysteamer around, he did jo with thu feeling that he had Very ' satis ttdrily discharged the duty 'with which be had been entrusted.'" - J Little did he suppose, at the moment, that be had lost probably the greatest opportu nity f- for obtaining personal distinction which had ever been thrown inthe way of a. single man. .The English nation vene rates the name of Lord Nelson for the sake of certain little affairs in which be was en gaged off Cape St, Vincent at the,"Nile, at Copenhagen, at Trafalgar, and; elsewhere, bat hot all of these '.wonderful, important and heroic achievements; combined would have had such an important influence on the history oftbe world as the capture., of , that little Russian ship. It was given to the captain of a small steamer to change the face of Europe in ten minutes well em ployed, but in pure innocence he missed the bcance. - , : t ' - f ' NEW" GUN.

IN this preparation all the restorative properties of the root are concentrated in their utmost strength, and efficacy; but while Sarsapariila Root forms an Important part of its combination, it is, at the same time, compounded with other vegeta ble remedies ol great power, and it Is In l lie pecu liar combination and scirn the manner or its prep. sration, that its remarkable success in the cure 'of disease depends. It acts simultaneously upon the stomach, Hlic circulation and the bowels; and thus three processes, which are ordinarily the result of three dliterent kinds ul r edtclne, are earned on at the same lime, through the instrumentality of this one remedial agenfwhlch gently stimulates while it disinfects and expels iroin the stomach and bowels all that is irritating, and at the same time esiores vigor and tone.

Hav ing witnessed the most beneficial effects from the use of your nrsnparillar' it' gives me pleasure to send you the following statement in regard to my son. In tbe spring of 1813 he took a severe cold, and after eight weeka of severe suffering the dis ease settled in his left leg and foot, .which soon swelled to the utmost. The swelling was lanced by his physician, and discharged most profusely; after that no leas than elevrn ulcers formed on the leg and foot at ono time. Wehad fivedifferent Phy sicians, but none relieved him much ; and the laat winter found him so emaciated and low that he was unable to leave bis led. suffering the most excrucia ting pain. During this time the bone bad become so much o fleeted that piece -elter piece came out, of which he has now more than twenty-five preserved in a bottle, varying from one half to one and a half inehea in length. We had given up all hopes of his recovery, butat this lime we were induced to try your Sarsaparilla, and with its use his health and appetite began Immediately to improve, and so rap id was the change that lesj than a dozen bottles ef fected a perfect cure.

J DR.SVVAYNEt Dear Sir Believing Itnduiy I owe to the public, and in justice to yon, 1 have thought proper to make known one of tbe most extraordinary cures, in my own case, that has ever been truly recorded. In the month of October last, I was afflicted with a severe gather ing in my breast, which formed a large abscess, and aifo communicated to my lungs and very much afflicted them, and discharged largo quan tities oP corruption, external and internal. My breath could also pass through my lungs and out through the cavity of mv breast with apparent ease, attended with a violent cough day and night, loss of appetite, and.cxtreme debility, so that my physicians thought- my caae. extremely hopeless snd oeyond tne power or medicine. ; 1 remained in this wretched condition for a long time, until 1 was wasted to a mere skeleton, and there seemed to be no hope for me, but, having read in the pub lic papers of the msny wonderful cures performed oy yonr ouaruu.iiiJ sykui ok wil.jj CHERRY, 1 immediately sent to Baltimore for five boitles'and commenced its use, and. lo my great satisfaction and that of my anxious family, the abscess or opening in my lungs began to heal, and .the cough subsided, snd on using ten bottles I was resUired to perfect health. 1 feel very grate ful, and firmly believe that in your .medicine, un der the blessings of Divine Providenee, I am in debted for this great change, and am happy lo say that 1 am now enjoying at good health as 1 ever haye.

And now has fallen- that affectionate, amiable and estimable daughter, to whom his heart dang with more tnan a T&tbets affection, and who loved him with more than. a, da nhter's love- She was to him as it were,- "the last rose of Buitmer,' left blooming alone," the light of his house, the presiding genius of his little, narrowed do mestic circle. , : ,j ' Truly. may it be said; .-, 'The paths of glory lead but to the grava.' " We may add that the wife of General Jackson died just before her husband was inducted into office, and the only 6on of Gen Pierce was accidentally killed by a j. railroad collision, between the period of the election of his father to the- Presidency, and his inauguration. ' . "GETTING UP A SMOKE." A .wagon freighted with gunpowder, tho wheels of which were tyred with leather, to prevent the possibility of igniting from sparks that might be produced by the con tact of an iron tire with the pavement, was seen passing over CragieV bridge a few days since, on. the top of which was seat ed the driver, apparently an Irishman, wi'h a pipe and some matches in his handd, which he was endeavoring to "get up a smoke." He was rubbing away quite lus tily upon-one of the explosive packages, without appearing to comprehend the fact that a single -unlucky spark -might send him to paradise or purgatory -in a twinkling besides endangering the lives of others. Boston Commonwealth. BOAT RACES. Q.uite an exciting boat race took place on Wednesday last, at Ilellgatc, for a stake of $50. - Some twenty sail boats were en tered and tbe contest was quite spirited, tils Cballe pje reached her goal ahead of all others, but for some reason she was de nied the stake. After the principal race a match took place between two row boats, in which a Mr. Decker won the purse. A very interesting and exciting race came off the the same afternoon, between the. boats & C. Foote, sailed by Watler Dixon, and the Rancbero, by J. M. (Jriffen. The former, is 18 feet long, and had 22 yards in her sail, the .latter 17 feet, and sported 33 yards. They went around Rob bin's Reef light, and back to Whitehall slip, a distance of Jen miles, the S. C Foote coming in a long distance ahead. . EARTIItY TniNGS FROM A BALLOON. - Things upon the surface of the earth look very strange from the car of tbe balloon at a great elevation. An seronaut named Brooks, who ascended last week from Worcester, Mass., to a height of one and a half miles,-describes the scene thus. The railway cars looked like baby wagons, and the whistle of the locomotive sounded quite melodious, dying away gently in a sound long drawn out. At one time he saw be low him what he took to be a largo pond, having at the side a school bouse, with chil dren tit play, but on a nearer approach it, proved to be a race course filled with spec tators. ... - PAT AND CUFF. f " An Cuff, will ye be a'fther tippingsa little bit of a song this cold mornin' ex claimed a son of the EmraJJ--fsie to a brother of. the sable race, a colaborer in the division and subdivision of wood.

The New York Tribune furnishes some singular1 and rather startling statistics con heeled with tbe criminal calendar in that city. From the 1st of January last to the 10th of the present month 35 murders were committed in the city, of which 21 are charged upon foreigners. " ' Of t he whole number 18 were committted under the di rect inspiration of rum. ' ON HAND FOR A TRADE. A gentleman was once negotiating with a New Hampshire horse-dealer for the purchase of a mare, but could not agree by" ten. dollars. Next morning, bowet er ma king tip his mind to tplit tbe difference, he posted off to the stable, when the first per son be met was the groom. .Master up, 'Joef he inquired. No,' master-be dead,' said Joe, 'but he left word for you to hare the mare. - Yankees never lose a trade. A little boy had a colt and a dog, and his generosity was often tried by visitors as king binv'just 10 see what he would say to give them one or both of his pets. Oae day he told a gentleman present he might have his colt reserving the dog, much to tbe surprise oi his mother,' who asked, Why, Jackey, why didn't you give him be dog!' .
