'1 her announcement turns out to be.a com plete hoax, one which fairly humbugged the pr.ucu of Humbuggers, Barnum. A crowd of people, men, women and children, numbering about 10,000, were at an early hour in the vicinity, anxious to see the "show," but after waiting several hours they began gradually to find out that they were still "green" cnough'to. be de cidedly "sold." Barnum, it appeal.", wni among Ihqse who were hoaxed, and has published a card gating that he had no idea there was any trick ijbout it until Tuesday evening. It appears that oij Friday last a man called upon his agents at the Mosuem, and represented himself to be the agent ol tlit- trustees of a large lemale academy, and desired to bargain forthe admittance on Tuesiliy afternoon of a body of young ladies in military costume, called the P<.iry Guard. He represented them to be pupils of an academy in Elizabeth, N. J., he said they would number 100, and would be accompanied by a band of music. On account of the number he wished to obtain a small deduction from the regu lar price of tickets. A bargain was made. Two lours a per, the man returned, and mentioned that the ladies proposed to presei.t a banner lo some juvenile society, and that a distinguished gentle man hail contented to make the necessarr address, il not objectionable to the manager of the Museum, lie was informed that no exception could betaken to such a proceeding, when he departed. The event was even mentioned oil the bills of the Mu seum for Tuesday aflermon. Subsequently tht fellow waited on Horace Gree ley, and engaged him lo deliver the audress. lie also went to the Asior House, and engaged dinner .for 9F l.idies, all t'? be in uniform, ami accompa nied by Lafayette Band of Harrsbutg, Fa. Alter this, he disappeared, but no one inspected a hoax until tl.e "distinguished visitors" failed to make Iheir appearance. This was tatber a cruel joke, but is n'together one of the best satirrs yet perpetrated on Greely and his hobby of "Woman's Rights." The Express thus discourses on the matter: The F.iiky Cimrd, an unfaib-Tiiino.?We sup pose we may safely say that tenj of thousand of our citizens, women and children being in majori ty?were yesterday drawn from tlieir homes by a recent paragraph in n morning paper to the effect that two companies of female hincers, mounted and uniformed, would visit this city yesterday.? Crowds assembled logrest them, and?went buck to rheir homes disappointed, as reflecting people foresaw. Many of our contemporaries make mer.-y over the practical joke, and have no pity for those who were so egregicusly cheated. Suppose we look on the other side. \\ e do not think these hoaxes by the newspapers, or through llie newspapers, as llie c.ise may be.atequile respectful lo the communi ty or credilalde to journalism. For this reason.;? -Many persons read tiienewspapers who are accus tomed to regard their conten1 s as a matter of fact. They rely, as they should be entitled lo do, upon a statement as truthful which they see there made iu apparent good faith. There are mechanics, their wives and families, and even persons of a more wealthy class, who have no such acquaint-, nice with the artificial, trick-playing world as would lead them to suspect a hoax iu an apparent ly bum fide newtpaptr paragraph. It does not seem lair lo delude those into Uie waste of a whole day, in the broiling sun and amid clouds of dust, waiting the appearance of what had an existence onlyinthe brains- af a praclicul juker. We can relish a good joke as well as any one, but we do not believe it is right to take advantage of the i^no ranee, or ?;Vcn of the raoibid curiosity of ten thou sand people lo rob each other of the day's time. There is another point which deprives the Uick of it?"mirtb provoking character. Confidence in feminine delicacy and propriety must have souk to a low ebb, when so many thousand ol people could so readilv believe that "some of the best educated and most estimable of (American) youiig ladies" would appear is soldiers, "officered by ladies^ including cuptains on horseback," peHotni military evolutions in the Park, &c.( &c. I bis view of Hie matter is worth grave thought, and it .is relevant to inquire how far the speeches and proceedings at certain women's conventions have tended to this deterioration of the public senti ments respecting lemale - propriety.?New Yorp Expres*. Cask or tiik Explosion or the Rkindekr.? The Louisville Journal stoles that (he local steam boat inspect.(is of that port have investigated the cause of the explos'on of the steamer Reindeer, anil have made a lengthy report thereon. They ascribe it to neglect of the second engineer, Freil. Ludwi?, and have revoked his license. The evi dence aduitced show him to have been heretoftre a very careful oflicer,v but in this instance he did not exercise usual caution. The cause of the ex plosion, they stute, was that the boat was out of trim, having a much larger quantity of fuel on one side than on the other, and thus the water ran from one side of the boilers to the other. They also censure her other officers f-r not clearing the timber-holes. They wind up their report with reading a homily to steamboat officers generally for ;tl|eir carelessness. Ludwig is besides subject to indictment. - A New organization, which promises complete ly 'o overshadow the "Know Nothing*," has re cently been effected in New York.

The Speaker overruled the point on the ground that there had been no adjournment, and this was a Continuation of Legislative day com menced yesterday, and he had no authority to ad journ the House. The Chaplain came in as usual to perform his duty, if necessary. Mr Hanks quo* ltd an ordi r of the House adopted on llie first day of the session, that 12 o'clock shall be fixed as the hour to which the House 9hnll stand adjourn ed each day, till otherwise ordered, therefore the House stands adjourned mainly bylts own order, and because the Legislative day still continued Ihete could not be a meeting to-day without an alj urnment Mr Banksappealed, and wanted to make a brief explanation to show that there was precedent for his point of order, but numerous ob jections were made.

The result has heretofore beeu uuiform. These nostrums have indeed imitaiied a momentary vivacity to the nervous system, a tiansieut and delusive vigor to the muscles; but this, flash of teller lias beeu succeeded by a deprosiou aud prostiation greater than before, and tne end has t oo otteu beeu utterly to paralyze tbe recuperative power or the nerves and the vital organization, aud finally to destroy tbe unhappy patient. Hut in MORSE'S INVIGORATING ELIXIR is presented as a phenomena in tbe materia medica hither to unheard ol?a stimulant without a reaction. The herb which lor ins its nta'u iugiedieut, has been ad mitted by all the great medical and pliarmaceuticalinstiut tious or Europe to be iu this respect sui generis. Dr .Morse, whose name is an undisputed authority iu' science discovered the production in Arabia, wbere his attention was excited by the wonderfully invigorating ejects it pro duced upon the natives. In fret t'.e wonderful power of endurance, tbe exhaustless vi^or exhibited by the Arab, of both sexes, iu their desert pilgrimages, is attributable Id tbe use of this vitalizing herb. An anneal is made to EVERY WO.MAN OF SENSE, who suffers ft oni weakness, derangement, nervousness, tieuiors, pains tn tUe back, or any otbei disorder, wheth ei peculiar to her sex, or common to both sexss?to give tbe Invigorating Coidiala trial.

PERSONS OF PALE COMPLEXION or consumptive habits are restored by the use of a bottle or two to blootn and vigor, and changing tbe skin from & l*ale yellow, sickly cotor, toabeauliluifiorid complexion. TO THE MISGUIDED. These are some or tbe sad and metaucholy effects pro duced by early habits uf youth, viz: weakness Of the back and limb*, pains in tlie head, dimue&s of sight,-loss of mus cular power, palpitation ol the heart, dyspepsia, nervous irritability, derangement of the digestive inactions, gene ral debility, symptoms of consumption, etc. Mentally, tlie tearful eflects on tbe miudare much to be dreaded. Loss ol memory, confusion of ideas, depression or spirits, evil forebodings, aversion to society, selfdfv. trust, love ol solitude, timidity, etc. are some of the evils produced. All thus afflicted BEFORE CONTEMPLATING MARRIAGE should reflect that s sound**mind and body are the most necessary requisites to promote counubial happiness; in deed, without tl.cse, the journey through life becomes weary pilgrimage, tbe prospect houily darkens tbe vlewj the miud becomes shadowed with despair, and filled with the melancholy reflection that the happin s or another be co.nes blighted with your own. PARENTS AND GUARDIANS Are often misled with respect to the causes and sources o. diseases in their sons and wards. How often do they as cribe to other causes of wasting of the rrame, idiocy, madf ness, palpitttion of the heart, indigestion, derangement of the uervous system, cough aud symptoms indicating con sumption, when the truth is, that they have been indulg ing in a pernicious though alluring practice, destructive to miud and body.
