A REMARKABLE CASE.

The' New York Herald' publishes the following received from Bridgeport, August 23" A wonderful case of calcareous formation, in which the medical fraternity is highly interested, came to light to-day in West Haven. A little eight-year-old niece of Mr Courtwright removed from under her jaw a decayed tooth which hung only by a shred of skin, The child held up the tooth for her mother's inspection. The mother examined the child's mouth and discovered what looked like a new tooth, TJ pon being touched it fell out. It was about the size of a small kernel of corn, white, and too hard to be eut with, a knife. Another new tooth instantly filled the freshly, opened cavity, and that in turn with eighteen others, were romoved by the mother, At this juncture she became alarmed and sent for a physician, He shortly arrived and removed twentyfour more, making a total of fortytwo. Doctors say that there have been cases of three or four teeth following each other in quick succession, but noror has such a wonderful case as this come within their knowledge. Dickens' Bob Sawyer speaks of a boy swallowing a bead necklace, and rattling like a hailstorm when punished j but there has been no unusual noise in this case, provivg conclusively that the forty-two teeth were firmly fastened."

THE BAD AND WORTHLESS are never imitated or counterfeited This is especially true of a family medicine, and it is positive proof that the remedy imitated is of the highest value. As soon as it had been tested and proved by the whole world that flop Bitters was the purest, best and most valuable family medicine on earth, many imitations sprung up and bean to steal the notices in which the press and the people of the country had expressed the merits of H. 8,, and in every way trying to induce suffering invalids to use their stuff instead, expecting to make monby on the credit and good name of H. B, Many others started nostrums put up in similar style to H. 8., with variously devised names in which the word "Hop" or " Hops" were used in a way to induce people to believe they were the same as Hop Bittors. All such pretended remedies or cures, no matter what their style or name is, and especially those with tbe word "Hop" or "Hops" in their name or in any way connected with them or their name, are imitations or counterfeits. Beware of them. Touch none of them, Use nothing but genuine American Hop Bitters, with a bunch or cluster of Green Hops on tbe white label, and Dr Soule's name blown in the glass. Trust nothing else. Druggists and Chemists are warned against dealing in imitations or counterfeits.

Cured or Dbinkino.-"A young friend of mine was cured of an insatiable thirst for iquor, that had so prostrated his system that he was unable to do any business. He was entirely cured by hopbitters. It allaved all that burning thirst, took away the appetite for liquor, made his nerves steady and ha has remained a sober and steady man for two years, and he has no desire to return to liib cupa, '-From a leading E,R. Official, met

HOUND THE WORLD, The other day three young men named Maley, Ward, and Oldroyd, were riding on bicycles on the Battery Pier, Douglas, Isle of Man, when Oldroyd, in a spirit of fun, tried how close he could ride to the edge of the

pier. Suddenly becoming dizzy, he fell headlong'on the rooks below, a height of 30ft. He was picked up senseless and died in less than half an hour. A scheme for the sanitration and reconstruction of Central London has' been submitted to the Government by Mr William Vestgartb, the well known colonial stock-broker. He proposes to constitute a Trust Board of 21 members, to entrust them, with the control of a capital of not less than £10,000,000 and with extensive power to compel the compulsory improvement of the most crowded, inconvenient, and and unhealthy parts of London, He believes that the : work can be m„ade self-supporting, .if the necessary appropriations can be held over for a term of years sufficient to secure the natural, or so-called "unearned," incre. ment of site value. He proposes to call up only one-tenth of the capital, leaving the rest as shareholding liability. Any fund required in addition to the available capital wonld be raised by loan secured upon the assets of the Trust. Yerdi (remarks a. London paper) is one of most retiring of the artistic lions of the day. He shrinks from those occasions ot making a public appearance which his brother celebrities so generally court. He visited the Turin Exhibition the other day—in strict' incognito,' as lie flattered himself—and made his way at once to the gallery in which the musical instruments are exhibited. An amateur who happened to be trying a new organ recognized the visitor, however, and immediately began an improvisation on a theme from "Aida." Yerdi rose in a rage from the seat which he had taken at the further end of the gallery, and put on his hat intending to beat a hasty retreat. But it was too latethe news of his presence had spread; every piano and liacmoninni in the section struck up an air of Verdi's no two playing the same one, and even the piano-organs themselves joined in the discordant chorus, - To get to the door he had to tun the guantlet of his own melodies j but the comio element in the situation proving too much for his gravity, he threw himself into a chair to have a hearty laugh. He was interrupted in the midst of it by an attendant, who thrust a card into his from a glance at which the astonished composer learnd that his "correct weight" was lOst 21b. He had taken his seat on the chair of a weighing-machine. Thinking he had had surprises enough for one day Yerdi hastily left the building, and has not been seen there since.

Another step has been decided upon by the Austrian Government in pursuance oi that policy of colonial and commercial expansion which the two allied empires of Austria and Germany have agreed to carry out in common, Austria is going to send out four or five war vessels round the world with the avowed object of pushing Austrian trade beyond the seas. The most important of the ships selected for this novel duty is the corvette Saida, and it is officially announced that the Austrian Consul at Smyrna, Her Jeniezek, has been selected by the Vienna Foreign Office, after consultation with the Austrian and Hungariau Boards of Trade, to go out in that vessel, in order to conduct her in her first attempts as a commercial pioneer. Australians will be interested to learn that the object which this particular vessel of the Austrian war navy has in view is " to investigate the import and export trade and commercial capabilities of the ports of Australasia." The Saida will touch at the following ports; Gibraltar, Balm, Cape Town, Adelaide! Melbourne, Sydney, and Auckland. She will also visit the Samoa Islands, and some ports of Java, Borneo, and the Philippines, and finally Singapore Ceylon, and Aden, '

"Out on Pemberton's lines, and near the place where he surrendered Vicbsburg to Grant," writes a traveller, I came to a spot on the highway where the roads narrowed to about ten feet, and just here was an old mule hitched to-a" waggon loaded with wood. The mule was up to his knees in mud', and the waggon was stuck. Reining my horse off to. the left I took a circuit through the thick woods, and suddenly came upon a colored man seated on a log half asleep, "What are you doing here ?" I asked, " Waitin'," was his prompt reply, " For what 1" « Say, boss, did you turn in from de road " Yes." " Saw a big mud hole out dar,l reckon?" "I did." "Saw an ole rat-cull'd, mewl stuck fast in de mud?" "Yes." "Well, sah, dat stablishment b longs to dis individual." " Then why on earth don't you get the waggon out and move on to town f "Bekasede ole mewl won't pull and bekase I'se dun tired of liftin.' But its all right boss—l isn't worried." Just then we heard the sound of wheels coming up,. and a team with two men in the carriage had to halt. They called "Nigger !" three or four times, and the man on the log winked for me to keep quiet. Receiving no response, the men got down, and while the one plied the whip over the old beast, the other raised the wheel, and the waggon Was dragged out on to solid ground so that tho_carriage could pass, When'it was out of hearing the negro started for the road/in a leisurely manner, and chuckled back over his' shoulder, " Dat's what 1 was waitiu' ; fur—yaw, yaw, yaw h Tell you what, boss dar's riuffin like makin' de white folks take hold an' help dis land of de, kentry 1 Whoa, dar,, Napoleon! Now ■you walk ou wid dat waggin'."
