But it is generally fixed by astronomical ealcnlatioua. This dny is the uiinivetsury of the descent to the curtli of the Tha Ghya Menft, or the Kinjc of tlio Nuts, who is the guardian spirit of the world. The oitward and visible repreientatloa of this ucit.y is liis goldeufnoied mnjesty the I King ol Burmah, who on New Year's Day, receives homage on his account. During these fesliviiies Burmese children •consider themselves privileged lo squirt water at people. The Army and Navy (ittzette of the 14th inst Buys :—The close of the present financial year will see us with at least 100,000 breeclt-loailing rifles on ihe Snider plan, and iu thc com se t.f next year the whole of our Iroops will probably be equipped with them.

A Boston paper states that Mr. Pea- li'idy has iininiiiiiiTil that ho will bestow $50,000 each upon tlio colleges of Harvard, Amherst, and Williams, iu the Hiale qf. Massachusetts, and $1,000,000 upon Boston for homes for the poor. A thousand shoemakers in und around Newark, N. J., are idle, because their employers attempted to reduce their wuges 16 per cent. W. II. Russell, who witnessed the fight from the Tower of Kouiggraiz, had his head cut open in the retreat, and narrowly escaped capture by the Prussians. Victor Hugo, the author, thinks he has inismkcii his vocation. As a painter "he thinks we would have achieved greut fame. John Stuart Mill pronounces Mr. Gladstone iho greatest, Parliamentary leader «iuce the time of the Stuurts About seven thousand Scandinavians have passed through Chicago this season for Minnesota, and mor« are expected. FACTS vs- THEORIES. " Give mo a place to rest my lever on," lays Archimedes, " ami 1 will move the World." '' Give mo pure and unadulterated drugs," says Medicus, of the olden time, ''and I will cure disease." In 6he sense, linth of these learned pundits were the veriest charlatans. They knew tliere was 09 place to rest their lever on, either to move the world or cure disease. Mechanism was in a backward state, and the medical profession was but unothei nntne for sorcery, and nil the adjuncts of inugic filters nud ■chHrths ol tha " evil eye," kc But these latter days have borne unto us something more than even superstition and its crew ever dreamt of in tb«ir maddest philosophy. In these days of practical science, wbat was theory of yesterday ir fact to-day, and all the old time notions become as bubbles in the sun, and burst and break wilh every breath we draw. tict Archimedes shoulder his lever and we will fiuo. a restiug place for it to move the world. Let mine ancient Medicus pant and toil no more for the drugs he so sorely needs, tor we have them nt our hand, ever ready to *ervo thetaat his beck. Refined'ln ibe laboratory of Dr. Manuel, the finest material^ known ln the medical profession arc obtainable bj any one. His Millions, Dyspeptic, and Diarrhoea Pills stand unrivalled, and his Salvo operates with magical »ffect upon burns, scalds, and all sores and ulcus of tbe skin. In fact, we think Maggikl's Pills and Salv« »re the wonder of this centnry, and we are nappy in the thought that many others of our brethren of the craft agree with us. We would earnestly counsel that all families provide themselves with Dr. Maggiel's Prepaiations ai once, end kaep them ready at band, so as to «ieth«mat the most opportune time and as o«oasion serves.— Vettef, Sentinel.
