EVENING STAR. {@rM. Landelfi, surgeon in chief of the Neapolitan army, ia asserted to have seeming- ly cured cancer, the tapica! application of the chlorides, of bromine, in combination with several other chlorides, according to the fol- lowing formula; cb le of bromine, three parts ; ebloride zine, two parts; chloride anti- mony, one part; chloride gold one part; pow- dered liquorice, sufficient to make & \! The surrounding are protected by an ointment of one drachm of form to an ounce of lard. M. Landolfi has been allowed six beds at La Salpetriere, Paris, to test the effiency of his iy- Ereetees Hosprep ayp Frerr-Five.—By a Strange coincidence. which will not again occur for a long time, the new year of 1855 commenced on the same day as in 1849, and consequently, all through the year the date will be on sue, same day. But what is more singular is, that all the moveable holidsys, from Septuagosima to Advent. fall onthe same dates and the same days. The almanacs of 1849 aight; therefore, serve for the present year: Pr The ing of granite at the Quincy ledges in M usetts, employs 1,000 men, and the value of the stone quarried this. year amounts to ha/fa million of dollars. Tt will be remembered that the first railway te a ted in the Wnited States was the Granite Rail- way, three miles in length, finished in 1826, and constructed for the purpose of transport- ing the Quincy granite from the quarries to the Neponset landing. ia The following is supposed to be the num- vert semper in tae ona: 10 in Austria; 14 in Afric: 5 2tin Spain; 26 in Portugal; 30 in Asia; 65 in Belgium; &5 in Denmark; 50 in Russia and Poland; 350 in other Germanic States; 500 in Great Britain and Lreland; and 2,000 in the United States, or nearly twice as many a3 in all other nations.
