ought to annex Brazil, as she is making a fuss about our taking a peep at the Amazon river, its tributaries and resources. lie think*, with our occurrence, that the annexation of Brazil should be in the wake of the annexation of the ••principalities." It is true Brazil might want a lew hundred millions of dollars for so great a ruflte country, but Tommy thinks coftVe will then bo at nothing per pound, and that's a great point gnin «d.

As waa aaid before, Tommy is great at figuring and mapping, and se soon as he gets through with the "principal!.ties" and "Brazil/' and make*his re port to tlio Democratic Congress, he will take up ond study the map of the hole world, and if ho should sea any other country worth annexing, he will make another suggestive report before a

A SNAKR STORT.—A Trxan lells a good story of a snake in that country who was caught ono night stealing eggs. The writer and his wife were aroused in the middle of the nigiu by tbe crash occasioned hy the falling of their cups and plates from the dresser. Springing up to see the author of this "attack upon China,*' the correspondent found a targ* «nak», attracted by a number of eggs, Itad crawled upon the shelf and swallowed an egg, and in order to get at thci next he had put his head and a portion: of his body throogh the handle of a jug which happened to stand between him and the coveted delicacies. The handle was large enough to let his body, in its natural state, slip throogh* but not sufficiently Urge to let it pass through wh«n puffed up bv the egg. White in this position he swallowed the second egg. His makeshift unable to advanee or retreat, began a general floundering, and of course made much mischief.

From tbe National Intelligencer. P"2 PROGRESS OF ANNEXATION.5 In continuaiiun of the annexing sub j?cts, it is now proposed that we annex the "principalities." or the territory in dispute between Russia and Turkey.— We are not familiar with the localities. names, &c., but our son Tommy, who is acute at figures and drawing maps, is busy preparing documents to enlighten Congress, which, being so decidedly Democrsiic, he has no doubt the "principalities" will be annexed before Christmas. I regard this a splendid scheme, because it will prevent a bloody war in F.urope, and at the same time elevate us in the estimation of "the rest of mankind." So soon as the Bear hears that "Uncle Sam" has annexed the land in dispute, he will of course evacuate the premises, knowing perfectly well that we not only have on hand in "the hard" tbe sinews of war, but we can extend them ad infinitum, and send over in sixty days good hard-fisted fighting soldiers and sailor* enough to give his army of three hundred thousand men a sound gf out with stores for the Arctic Searchlicking It is true Turkey might want ir,g Expeditions, ond that Copt.

We were at that time made fast to the land ice, about a mile off the land the ship was alongside of the ice. The floe or sea ice, which might be twenty or thirty milea in extent, was closing upon the land ice, and unless the ship was protected in some way the probability was that it would crush her.

PERILS OF THE ARCTIC SEAS. A complimentary dinner was given on the 30th ultimo by the people of Lynn, England, to Lieut. Cresswell, R. N., who has just returned home with despatches from Commodore McCiure. an* nouncing the discovery of the Northwest Passage. In response to the toast com plimemnry to the guest of the evening, Lieut. Cresswell made a speech, goi at some length into detail upon matters touching the'perilous adventure from which he had just returned. Some of the incidents he narrated were of much interest, the following, for example, telling how the ship "Breadalbane" was lost: "There are, perhaps, very few here who are aware or have read an account of the wonderful power the ice has upon a vessel, or bow easily a vessel may be sunk by it. I will just give you a short account of the Breadalbane going down, if I am not trespassing on your time. 1 must tell you that the Breadalbane was a transport ertgaged by Government to

heard the ship's timbers creaking nnd groaning and making a most unpleasant noise but we had experienced a great denl of noise in the Investigator, and I had thought nothing of it. I jumped on deck, and then saw the ice had passed us, and was going on to the Breadalbane. (t took the Breadalbane ond nipped her. It is generally considered that if a ship Is nipped and she rises, the ice getting under her, she is safe but if she does not rise, then it is very probable she will be destroyed. In this case the ship rose. I thought, therefore, nothing more about it, and went down to my bed again The Breadalbane w»ts only about

June 9th, I85*A Dr. Swayne Dear Sir: Believing it a duty I owe to the*public, and in justice to you, have thought proper to make known one of tho most •extraordinary cures in my own case, that has ever been truly recorded. In the month of October last, 1 was afllictcd with a severe gathering iu mv breast, which formed a large abscess, and almost communicated to my lungs, and very much afflicted them, and discharged large quantities of corruption, extertal and internal. My breath could also pass through my lungs and out through the cavity of my breast with apparent ease, attettdtd with a violent cotiah, day and night, loss •f appetite, and extreme debility,«o that my phy ictait thought my case entirely hopeless, ami be

yond the power of medicine. "I remained in this wretched condition lor a long time, until was wasted to a mere skeleton, and there seemed to be no hope for me but bavins read in the public pap ers of the many wonderfu Icurest performed bv vout COMPOUND'SYRUP OF WILD CHEll'RY I immediately sent to Baltimore ibr five bortles. and commenced its use, and to my great satisfaction and the joy of my anxious family, the abscess or opening in my lungs began to heal, and the cough lo subside, and on utting ten bottles, 1 was restored to perfect health. 1 feel very grateful, and firmly believe that to your valuable medicine, un der the Blessing of Divine Providence, 1 am in debted for this great changc, and atu hippy to say that I am now enjoying as good health as 1 ever have.

Yours, very "respectfully, THOMAS DIXCN.
