ban any one fcMhow it is that a man
Didkny of our'ieaders 'ever hear" of
I the Gairsoppa Falls, near Horiore? If
41 iM. lx.- 1 iVi -' l.J-l.l -.1
uui iiiev wnt proDaoiy reaa iwiuisome
pleasure a description which has just ap
pearea in ine uaicutta papers, it is
curious that a fall six times the depth of
.Niagara should remain almost unknown.
From the village ef Gairsoppa,- reached
by a river of the same name, the writer
was carried for twelve miles up the Mali
munch Pass and reached the Bungalo
about three hours and a halt alter leav
ing the top of the pass. Ah amphitheater
oi woods, and a river about five hundred
yirds wide, rushing and boiling to a cer
tain point, where it is lost in a perpetual
mist and in an unceasing deafening roar,
must hrst be imagined.
Leaving the Bungalo on the Madras
side of the river, and descending to
position below the river level, you work
your way up carefully and tediously
over slippery rocks until you reach
point where a rock about twice the size
of a man's body juts out over a preci
pice. Resting flat upon this rock, and
looking over it, you see directly before
you two out of the four principal falls;
these two are called the "Great Falls'
and "The Rocket. The one contains a
large bodv of water, the main body of
the river, perhaps fifty yards across,
which falls massively and apparently
sluggishly into 'the chasm below, and the
other contains a smaller body ot water,
which shoots out in successive sprays
over successive points of rocks, till it
falls into the same chasm. This chasm
is at least nine hundred feet fu depth
six times the depth of the Niagara falls,
which are about one hundred and fifty
feet, arid perhaps a quarter to half a
mile in width. These are the first two
fulls to be visited. , v
Then move a little below your first
position, and you will observe first a tur
bid boiling body of water of greater vol
ume than the Rocket Fall, rushing and
streaming down into the same chasm;
this is the third fall, the "Roarer."
mi . . . i-,,, r ,i
ft Parryinyour eye.. w w
I n nii'n vnn will r heprvo nnnrnpi T-ill the
down, you will observe another fall, the
loveliest, softest,- and most graceful of
all, being a broad expanse of shallow
water falling like transparent silver lace
over a smooth' surface of polished rock
into this same chasm; this is "La Dame
Blanche," and the White Lady of Avenel
could not. have been more graceful and
ethereal .j But do not confine yourself to
any one place in order-to view these
falls; scramble everywhere you can, and
get as many views as yon" can- of them,
and you will be unable to decide upon
which is the most beautiful.
And do you want to have a faint idea
of the depth the chasm into which these
glorious waters fall? Take out your
watch and drop as large a peice of rock
as you can hold, from yourjicwing place;
it will be several seconds before you even
lose sight of the piece oflrock, and then
even it wilt not have 'reached the water
at the foot of the chasm it will only
have been lost to human sight; or wateh
the blue pigeons, wheeling and circling
in and out the Great Fall within the
chasmy and looking like sparrows in size
in the depths . beneath you. But you
have yet only seen ; one, and that not
perhaps the , loveliest, and at least not
the most comprehensive, view of the
falls, j1 You must proceed two miles up
the river above the falls, and cross over
at a ferry, where the waters are still and
smooth as glass and sluggish as a Hollan
der and proceed to the Mysore-side of
the falls, walking first to a point where
you will see them all at a glance, and
then descending as near as you can to the
foot of these, to be drenched by the sprays
deafened by the noise and awe-struck by
the grandeur of the scene, and by the
presence of the Creator of it, in the per
petual rainbow jof many and brilliant
hues; tnlioh spansJ:he foot of the chasm.

THE DRAGOOWS WIFE.
The grief of the dragoon's wife for
her husband was of rather an intense
kind. The Boston Timet contains an
affecting? story 'of a Massachusetts wife
to her husbaud, a civic soldier, ordered
on perilous duty. It was during the
time of the Charleston nunnery riots,
and the soldiery were summoned for the
protection of life and property from an
infuriated mob. TJic soldier, appointed
for duty found his wife in tears; but we
let the Times tell the rest of the story:
He clasped the partner of his bosom in
a cordial embrace, and with a voice al
most too choked for utterance, he said:
"Weep not, weep not, dearest Ange
lina. These Charleston muffs can't
stand before us , rackers. Cheer up,
cheer up, my dear it will be a long time
before you see my dead body on such a
"Oh, I do not weep on that account,
dear Ephraini!"
1 "Ah! then tell me the cause of your
sorrow. Hasn't that blasted mutton
butcher sent that leg of South down?"
"He has, and a beauty it is; but oh!"
here another torrent of tears flowed like
a brook glistening with gems, through
those flames of a woman's soul, her eyes.
-"What Is -it,-Angelina?" said the cor
poral, moved by turns from the pathetic
to the severely natural. 'Trust me, my
dear; you need hot be alarmed on my ac
count. I shall not loseanarmora leg."
"'Tisn't that (boo-00-00.") -
"Speak out; tell me,, for God's s sake,
what makes you take on so!" -"Well,
you know"
"Yes." " '
" Boo-oo-op!" ,' i ; ) ? i j
"Go ahead. Becalm. I 'shall soon
return Aside Poor thing! I had no
idea she thought so much of me."
"You know I went into the parlor
just after you left?" ;
' "Yes."- . i v. ' .;.:
"I saw your pocket-book on the table."
"Yes."
"Boo-00-00!" - y. i ---" ; ' :
"G on; go on. (Aside Kind, af

"I took up the pocket -book" - . c

"And"

"Boo-00-00!"
"And did what?"

BLOOD FOOD.
Dr. B ron son, having been so far reduced by con
sfitnptioojL4p be considered beyond all hope of. re
covery b ipost eminent of the medical profes
sion,onu Jby himself a regular physician of
twenty yearffiractlce as a last resort, conceived
the idea of ANALYZING THE BLOOD, and apply
ing the subject of physiology to the more Immedi
ate connection, and effect of the state of the blood
upon the health and system. The result has been
the production of this "BLOOD FOOD." from the
tiseof which Dr. Bronson was rcstorod to perfect
health. Within six months after Its introduction,
over two thousand consumptives were effectually
cured by it. if jou have any complaints of a con
sumptive tendency, Congh, Cold, Head-ache, Pal
pitation of the Heart, Less of Appetite or Pain in
the side, lose no time in procuring a bottle of the
BLOOD FOOD." If you are suffering from Ner
vons Debility, or your sleep is broken and dis
turbed, if your spirits are depressed or your organs
relaxed, yon will find in this an unfailing remedy, by
commencing with ten drops. If your Liver Is tor
pid or diseased in any manner whatever, one or two
bottles will be sure to invigorate, and bring it into
lively and healthful action. In the most inveterate
cases of Dyspepsia the patient can here find the
most efficient and grateful relief. A benefft is al
ways experienced after taking one bottle. In Male
or Female Complaints and Weaknesses, the suf
ferer, after trying other remedies in vain, may rest
assured, that a certain cure will result from the use
of two or three bottles. The "BLOOD FOOD" is
effectual in all cases of Eruptions, Salt Rheum.

THE GREAT WONDER
OF THE NINETEENTH CENTURY,
Prof. Wood's Hair Restorative
Says the St. Louis, (Mo.) "Democrat:" Below, we
publish a letter to Dr. Wood, of this city, from a
gentleman in Maine, which speaks glowingly of the
superior merits of his hair tonic. Such evidence must
have its effect, when coming from a reliable source.
If certificates are guarantees or truth, the Dr. needs
no encomiums, nor useles puffery from the press:
'- Bvrn, Maim, Jan. 20, 1850.
Professor O. J. Wood & Co.:
Gentlemen: Having mv attention called a few
months since to the highly beneficial effects of your
hair restorative, I was induced to make application
of it upon my own hair,which bad become quite gray,
probably one-third white; my whiskers were of the
same character. Some three months since I procured
a bottle of your hair restorative, and used it. I soon
round it was proving what I had wished. . 1 .used it
about twice a week. I have since procured another
bo'.tle, of which I have used some. I can now cer
tify to the world that the gray or white hair has to
tally disappeared, both on my head and face, and my
hair has resumed its natural color,and I belisve more
soft and glossy than it has been before fortwenty-flre
years. 1 nm now sixty years old; my good wife at
the age of fifty-two, has used it with same effect.
The above notice 1 deem due to yon for your val
uable discovery. I am assured that whoever will
rightly use, as per directions, will not have occasion
to contradict my statements. ,1 am a citizen, of .this
city and a resident hero for the last fifteen years, and
am known to nearly every one here and adjoining
towns. Any nse you may make of the above, with
my name attached, is at your service, as I wish to
preserve the beauties of nature in others as well as
myself. I am, truly, yours, ,

THE HOWARD ASSOCIATION, in view or the
awful destruction of human life, caused by Sex

nnfprtunate victims of such diseases by Quacks,
several years ago directed their Consulting Surgeon,
as a CHARITABLE ACT worthy of theinmame, to
open a Dispensary for the treatment f this class or
diseases, in ail their forms, and to give MEDICAL
ADVICE GRATIS to all who apply Ty letter, with a
description of their condition , (age, occupation, habits
of life, &c) and in cases of extreme poverty, to
FURNISH MEDICINES FREE OF CHARGE. It is
needless to add thntio Association commands the
highest Medical skill of the age, and will furnish the
most approved modern treatment.
The Directors of the Association, in their Annual
Report upon the treatment of Sexual Diseases, for the
year ending January 1st, 1858, express the highest
satisfaction with the success which has attended the
labors of the Consulting Surgeon in the cure of Sper
