A New and Wonderful Aiti.ica tion ok tub Powers of tiie Electric Wires.?Washington, June 9.?A patent has juttt been granted to Ijoring Pickering, nno of ilio ovlitoro nnd ictuta K)C did Morning Call newspaper of San Francisco, for a method of rapid telegraphing ol fac similes of stereotyped plates. It is claimed that by this process an entire page of a newspaper can be transmitted by telegraph in from Gftecn to thirty minutes, delivering the copy directly from the instrument iu such form that it can bo handed immediately to the printers. In other words, the copy will be a substantial reproduction of thoorigiual. except thai it may be given in a larger sized lcitor, if so desired. The stcretype plate requires no preparation for the purpose of telegraphic transmission other than the filling of all dopi-cssions or spaces bct.Tcen the faces of the letters with a nonconducting substuuee, which may be quickly applied, the faces of the type being left clean by means ol an equally simple process. The plate thus prepared is placed upon a cylinder arranged to rerolvo rapidly so as to present each successive letter to Cngcra attached to a travelling frame. As the cylinder bearing the plates revolve, the frame gradually advances by the opcratiou of a screw, aud thus each and every lino is successfully presented to tlio fingers or magnetic points already mentioned. Necessarily the circuit is open when the poiuts orn nnuci urv awa?? ^-?1 Hiv wivi tuu uun'cunuui'iin^ surface, but aa often as the metal type presents itself to the lingers, the circuit is closed, and the corresponding magnetic points or pens at the receiving 6tation make the record there iu the same letter as the original, delineated iu a series of line lines, either upon chemically prepared or ordiuary paper fixed upon a corresponding eyliudcr at the receiving statiou. Pigs and Snakes.?A farmer living on the west side of the Ohio river, iu waiting about his farm, d:scovereu a nest of rattlesnakes iu the hollow bark of an old tree, about which several large p'eccsof rock lay scattered. Having heard thai pigs were hostile to snakes of all kinds, and not caring to attack the nest himself, he thought he would try the experiment aud see a light, lie drove several pigs Iu the vicinity of the nest, aud watched the result. The pigs 600D seemed to scent the reptiles, and commeuced rooting eagerly about the spot. In an instant half a dozou of the vicious serpents emerged from their hiding-places to attack the iutrudeis, who manifested a zealous disposition to give battle. A snake would rear himself to the height of the hack of the pig, slia"kc his rattle, aud plunge his fangs iuto the animal with lightning-like celerity, and then dart away, pursued by the pig, who dexterously received the sting upon the fleshy part of the jaw. Over and over again this would be repeated, until the pig got his forefoot upon the snake, when he would deliberately rip tiie reptile iu twain aud devour him. This slaughter continued uuii! all the snakes were disposed of, wlieu the pigs grunted contentedly, and without anr sIi'iim nf lu>intr <llui nvK/??l mn/l.llA.1 ..ir J --o O -'" " '"'"I IIUUUHIU UU iU search of other proveuder. The eye-witness to (.his singular contest, which was uot without its exciting features, declares himself couviocca that a pig is impervious to the poisouous Lite of any kiinl of serpcut. A Fkvv Items kou Mothers to Head. ?A corrcsiKtudeut, in writing to the Mitldlctown L'rets, oilers tiie following seasonable suggestions to mothers of alllicted children : We hope that mothers will remember that good brandy is a cure for summer complaint; iu bad cases a teaspooui'ul iu milk three or four times a day. A flannel cioth, wot iu hot brandy, or better, camphor and brandy mixed and heated, will relieve the pain of the bowels, if frequently laid over the stomach and bowels. Bits of scraped ice are better on the toDgue than drinks of water. For stings and poisons, a strong solution ot suierntus and water immediately anil thon frequently applied, gives reliefand sure cure. For buriiH, an immediate application of flour covering the burn and wrapped so as to exclude the air; then burn lard till it is quite brown and apply, and relief and ourj will soon oomo. Do not wash off the flour ^ if it clings, but put the lard over it. At night, in extremo warm weather, a lemon squeezed in tepid water, to sponge off the tired-out little body, will give rest to both the mother and child. Saleratus is good, but the lemon is best. I'lven washing off the little feet, neck and palms of the hands in tepid, nover very eolu, water, will induce n healthful sloop. SOMETHING NEW UNDlCIt THE S(0)TV. NEW STORE AT THE OLD STAND. ?
