the said contract; the said Strong agreeing and
promising to pay to aaid complainant the sum of
lour thousand dollars.
Tne bill further states that the said Strong, on
or about the 2d day of February, A. D. 1852, as

The noble Earl is wall and favorably known in
thia country, having travelled here while he bore

read with great interest by all who have devoted
any attention to the mighty events which are now
taking place in the Eastern World. The period
embraced in his journal is one of deep signifi
cance, beiag at the very commencement of hos

euing postage stamps, envelopes, sheets in a
copying book, couuting bank bills, Atc?, The
common way of mo'Stening stamps with the
tongue is very disagreeable aud inconvenient;
also the usual way of wetting sheets in a copying
book, by using a brush which has to be dipped in
water, is inconvenient and very difficult to give
paper an even moisture, which is very desirable
for copying letters. This article obviates these
difficulties, besides being useful for various other
purposes. It is also perfectly simple and cheap,
and must come into general use.?[Boston Pott,
