BROOKLYN IN EVENING STAR. was may good fortune to witness one of the most amusing scenes which I ever beheld, on last Thursday evening, at an Oyster Saloon on Chesnut Street. Tom Wilson, acknowledged the greatest wag of the city, to have some sport with certain knight of the bodkin and needle, who had, upon a certain occasion, somewhat ed our hero by dunning him for a suit of broad. cloth which graced the fine proportions of Tom. Having ascertained that the tailor was laboring under a depression of spirits, caused by the approaching epidemic, Tom had invited some of the choice spirits of his acquaintance, the tailor among the number, and had employed W--n, who bad taken a few lessons in ventriloquism, to accompany them to the Saloon as above stated.

Brandy having been recommended by some of the faculty, as a preventive, it hed become the almost universal spirit of the age, and the favor. ite beverage of the bloods of Philadelphia. Tom having called for the liquor, all the practioners at the bar walked up and portook of the preven tive, when, the tailor having smacked his lips and strongly eulogized the strengthener, and was in the act of placing his glass on the counter, there issued from it these prophetic words I am no specific- you are a doomed It is impossible for words to convey even a faint idea of the woe stricken countenance of the tailor, who stood leaning upon counter with face and lips as colorless as the bleached linen which he had so often cabbaged. Had the tailor'e limbs not refused to obey his will he would have left the room but it was impossible, for as soon 88 they were about to return to their wonted functions, again would issue from the glass the terrific you are a doomed man Tom and his party, with W-n, were enjoying the plight of the poor terror stricken tailor, when their sport was suddenly cut short and their countenances as suddenly elongatedW--n in particular, was heard to issue from the vault beneath, in deep sepulchral You are all doomed men. Beware Now comes the cream of the joke.

Had the handwriting appeared suddenly upon the wall, in the day of Belshazzar, there could not there could not have been more consternation. Tom looked at -n, and W. -n gazed upon Tom, as to seek a solution of the mystery; but in vain. Suddenly was heard again in the same deep tones, Depart, or ye shall not see the mor. row's sun 4 It is a judgment- judgment," shouted W--n, as he rushed forth into the street, followed by Tom and his party.

The readers may well conceive what relief and satisfaction lit up the countenance of the poor half-dead tailor, who had been unable to run, through fear, when Mr. Gester, the most perfect ventriloquist of the nge, stepped up to him and explained the mystery, and showed him how the "biter had been bitten." It is credibly reported that poor 1 W--n, like the cork leg, has not stopped yet, but keeps moving from place to place. He was last heard from in Canada. We are requested to state that should this meet his eye, Mr. Gester wishes him to be assured of his good wishes and hopes, as the mystery is now explained, he will again return to Philadelphia, and the bosom of his friend Tom, who is convalescent.

From the Oswego Times. the Ventriloquist--An Amusing tale. BY A TYPO, FAT following is taken from Mr. Giles lectures soon to be published in Boston. Mr.

Giles will be remembered as having delivered popular course of lectures on Don Quixotte. It really does take a deal of wrong to make one actually hate a fat man; and if we are not always so cordial to a thin man as we ought to be, Christian charity should take into account the force of prejudice which we have to overcome against his thinness. A tat man is the nearest to that most perfect of figures, a mathematical sphere, a thin man to that most limited of conceivable dimensions, a simple line. A fat man is a being of harmonious volume, and holds relations to the material universe in every direction; a thin man has nothing but length a thin man, in fact, is but the continuation of a point." CONVENTION OF DOMESTIC FOWL BREEDERS. -This body meete at Boston on the 15th and 16th inst.

The following statistics of eggs and chickens are worthy the attention of farmers. The breeding and rearing of poultry is not second in importance to scarce any other article of stock in New England. By referring to the Agricultural Statistics of the United States, published in 1840, will be seen that the value of Poultry in the State of New York, was two mil. lions three hundred and seventy-three thousand and twenty dollars! which was more than the value of all the swine in the same State; nearly equal to one half the value of its sheep the entire value of its neat cattle, and nearly five times the value of its horses and mules! The same amount sales of Poultry at the Quincy Market, for the year 1848, was six hundred and seventy-four thousand four hundred and twenty -three dollars; the average sales of one dealer alone amounting to twelve hundred dollars per week for the whole year.The amount of sales for the whole city of Boston for the same year, was over one million of dollars. The sales of eggs in and around the cy Market for 1848, was one million one hundred and -nine thousand seven hundred and thirty-five dozen, which, at 18 cents per dozen, makes the amount paid for eggs to be, two hundred and three thousand and fifty- two dollars and thirty cents; while the amount of sales of eggs for' the whole city of Boston for the same year, was a fraction short of one million of dollars; the daily consumption of eggs at one of its hotels being 75 dozen daily, and on Saturday, one hundred and fifty dozen.

One dealer in the egg trade at Philadelphia sends to the New York market daily, nearly one hundred barrels of eggs, while the value of eggs shipped from Dublin to Liverpool and London, was more than five millions of dollars for the year 1848.3 Report of a large sale of Bank Stocks, at auction, by Cole Chiton, yesterday, in the Merchants' Exchange, on account of the estate of the late David Clarkson. Very high prices were obtained, higher than those ruling at the board of brokers, and the result created considerable conversation in the street. 86000 New York 6's, 1862........ 2000 do, 1860. ......111 2000 do, 1121 2000 6s, 1084 8000 8 1667 1144 5000 do 5000 do 1144 44 she Manhattan Bank 1044 100 Bank of America 53 do 105 50 Fulton Bank 1194 50 do 1198 50 do 1198 do 1198 do 1198 do 1194 50 Mechanics Bank 1128 do do do do do 114 Bank State 961 de 991 do 984 Bank of New York 10 New Jersey Bank 107 do 120 do 1078 do Utica and Schenectady 1218 do do 1218 Syracuse and New York Gas 1284 40 New York Loan and Trust Company 20 New York Marine Company 854 100 she Peoples Bank Patterson, N.

164 N. Y. Herald, Nor. 9. BROOKLYN EVENING STAR WEDNESDAY EVENING.

NOV. 14th. EDWIN SPOONER, EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR. Honor to the Brave, We hope that all our citizens, will join patriotically, in the solemn ceremonies of tomorrow and Friday in honor of the gallant spirits of the heroic dead. The sentiment of respect to merit, sacrificed in the cause of our country, is one of the noblest we can cherish.

It is not an empty and hollow show that we are called upon to bestow, itis something more, it is a tribute to virtue and in its payment warms the germs of true no. bility in our own breasts. What a sad price we have paid for the golden sands of California, can these make a nation rich, a nation deploring the death as such men as the chivalrous Worth, 1 the sagacious Duncan and the brave Gates Our loss has been greater than our gain, as it always is in the dreadful game of war.What though fields of false glory were won, and miles of golden rocks, our country has lost thousands of her sons, and now we lament the untimely loss of the very. flower of her chil. dren.

If such reflections do not make us sick of the pomp and glitter of war, tired of the pursuit of such glory, and only ready to array an army in defence of our honor and our rights as a nation, the lessons of experience have no moral for us. All that is now left, is to do proper honor to those who obeyed the call of duty and risked their life and health on the field of battle, and in the more deadly regions of the pestilence.For our defence they lost their lives, and grati- tude and patriotism alike, demand that their memories should be kept eternally green, When spring with dewy fingers cold, Returns to deck their sacred mould; Her foot shall press. a brighter Than Fancy's have ever trod." THE latest returns show that the average whig majority on the State ticket exclusive of the split vote of the Anti-renters, will be about 2,000. The election of Washington Hunt, the Whig candidate for Comptroller, and Christopher Morgan, Secretary of State-the two most important State officers, is thus placed beyond a peradventure. The election of the four candidates not adopted by the Anti-renters, is extremely dubious.

It will be a pretty tight run. The Senate stands 17 whigs to 15 locos; and the Assembly, at the worst, gives the whigs a minority of two--making a tie on joint ballot. THE NEXT CONGRESS. -The vote in the next Congress, according to the classification in the Tribune, stands about equally divided. The irregulars and free-soilers will unquestionably hold the balance of power in that body.

Conutry Residences. The high rents charged in New York for ten- ements, and the narrow accommodations confined air of that great city, will drive away many mechanics and people of the middle class, who have families, to Brooklyn and its wide circle of suburbs. No man should confine his wife and children to a city residence, at the risk their health, when a salubrious place can be procured for less money, in the pure air of the country. We notice two advertisements, one of Mr. Shannon, offering lots of the usual dimensions, at Temperanceville, South Brooklyn, on reasonable terms, -the other of Wm.

Duryea of Fulton street near the ferry, offering small farming lots of from oue to ten acres near the Long Island Rail Road. Either of these two classes of situations are preferable to the disadvantages of city residences. To a vigorous mun with a large and growing family, the farming spot would have many attractions. The labor in a large garden is 1 to many mechanics in the villages of our land, esteemed a most agreeable relaxation, and the fruit of these extra hours is partaken of, with a keener relish, than that which is purchased by money. The time will come, when persons engaged in many kinds of city business, will be generally enabled to reside in the country during the entire year, and recreate themselves by occasionally delving in their garden, or at all events superintending its culture.

The profits of such a change in the life of those engaged in active pursuits, will be felt in more ways than one. The fresh and wholesome products of the garden, the fine milk and butter, the honey, all which can be easily raised, will soon produce a good effect on the health of the family, while the change of scene and exposure to the fresh air, will harden the constitution and nerve the head of the family, for the toils and trials of his daily life. We hope our city friends will think of the suggestion, and by combined efforts render the scheme of a line of suburban villages or rather a city of gardens practicable. DARIG ROBBERY. -Last evening about nine o'clock as Mrs.

Norton, keeper of a boarding house in this city was returning to her home, she was attacked by a ruffian in Washington street near Sands, who had emerged from a tree (under which he closely embraced the trunk) knocked down and robbed of $70 which she had collected during the day from her boarders. She laid insensible upon the side walk and was taken up by Mr. Cary and carried into his house, No. 153 Washington street. Dr.

Wade was called to attend her and rendered every nssistance. Mrs. Norton, very improperly carried her pocket book in her hand, which probably tempted the ruffian who was waiting for other spoil. A correspondent gives us quite a sketch of an agreeable entertainment, prepared by Mr. Frederick White, eating saloon, No.

31 James street, to a few select gentlemen of our city on Monday evening. He says Mr. White cannot be beat in the excellence of his entertainments, and begs that puilic notice may be given of the fact. C. son of George Hudson, painter, in Fulton street, received a severe wound on the side of his head by a fall from a ladder, while painting a house in Hicks street yesterday morning.

WHIG MEMBERS OF Whig member of Congress has been elected from the Wheeling district in Virginia in place of Alexander Newman deceased. What renders this peculiarly a victory, is the close state of parties in the present Congres, and the previous strong loco foco bias of the district.

Nov. 11, 1849. To the Editor of the Star A few evenings since, through an invitation tendered us, we had the pleasure of attending the exhibition exercises of the Public School New Lots. The gratification we experiencedthe satisfaction it produced, and the rich tainment it afforded, tempts us to intrude your grounds, and ask the favor of this insertion in your columns, believing it due to the ter of the school, and its excellent and teacher. This school is located in one of the most tiful sections of Long Island.

The street which it stands is about two miles in length, throughout its whole extent are seen handsome, elegant and tasteful farm houses. The scenery around is delightful, and the traveller, in passing along through the precincts of the village, struck with its prepossessing appearance, inspired with the prospect before him. To south, lies old ocean's vast domain and its blue and foaming waters, breezes spring on every wave, and are wafted along and commingling with the fragrant fields and enriched soil, form one genial atmosphere which stantly renovates the human frame, develops both physical and mental systems and into the tabrie of Nature's noblest work, health, vigor and animation. The School is under the direction and care Mr. H.

J. HAMILTON, a man whom (from short acquaintance with him,) we should judge well qualified for the station he occupies, well calculated to instruct those under his charge and to lay the foundation of useful knowledgeof good moral -whereby they be actuated hereafter. Of his system of teaching, and the method we do not at this time intend to dwell pursues, upon; but suffice it to say, the exercises which we listened were a model, they must of the highest order. Of the exhibition, must say, it was one of the most cheerful, piest and brightest gatherings we have seen a long time. We could say much in praise of the young ladies and gentlemen who had parts in the exercises could speak in high tones of commendation of their articulation, emphasis, and modulation of voice, which are so necessary in conversation as well as in reading and public speaking, and which can be acquired only constant and judicious training; we could speak of the beautiful and interesting appearance the young ladies--their uncommon the manly and intellectual deportment the young gentlemen, and of the very priate and excellent singing of the scholars, der the management of Mr.

L. F. PRATT, But we hope to be pardoned while refer to some who far excelled any thing of kind we have ever heard. For instance- -those little girls who came out and discoursed so mirably about 66 The Five Senses," The Thimble," The Killing of a Fly," and The Playof Fox and Geese at School." Those little boys, who gave us Rules and Maxims tor the Conduct of Life;" and that little boy who told about the Kite;" also those who spoke The Stream of "The New Year," Night;" And The Groom," and from The Constitution." we cannot refrain speaking prompt and forcible expression of him who, with the eagles, scanned the fields of "San cinto," or of' him who carried us back in glowing style to the scenes of the past, and told us The Indian as he was, and as he is;" nor can pass by without alluding to the solemn and appropriate tones of the 66 Sorrow for the Dead," amusing narration of Good Old Times," touching language of' Home," the loiterings among Field Honors," or the thrilling and riotic speeches of Patrick Henry. But we should injustice to the occasion if we left unnoticed humorous Tooth Drawing Expedition," the recital of the Bear Hunt in Vermont," in which 66 Down Easter" was delineated in true genuineness and richness or the extempore soliloof Milses Boy," in which wit and genius well developed in portraying the Trish character and peculiarities.

And we cannot pass unheeded the 66 Comic Dialogue of the Conju;" the lively farce entitled "Who's the without noticing the well sustainment the different characters, and especially the manners, the graceful appearances, and toned expressions of the Misses. No, we not pass them by unheeded nor forget them, the treat which they all presented why should we lengthen our comments? are unnecessary, for all did well; their performances were well executed; they had a effect, and reflected great credit upon scholars and teachers.

137 This is truly the most splendid prepararation for beautifying and preserving the HAIR, that has ever before been presented to the public, in this or any other country. It gives to the hair, when applied to the appearance of a polished surfacs! giving to hair, even the most harsh and dry, a soft and brilliant texture; causing the hair to CURL beautifully, and prevents its turning gray. Ladies may use it without the slightest fear of its soiling a hat of the most delicate colours or texture, as it always leaves the hair soft and clean. For the Nursery it is most invaluable. Let Mothers try it, and we guarantee they will never ter, 80 long as they may use it, have occasion to complain that their children's hair is "flying, in all directions," in consequence of being dry and harsh.

KELLINGER'S INFALLIBLE LINIMENT, Or Medicated Embrocation, continues to astonish all who use it, for the strengthening, filling up, and beautifying hair; it is equally efficacious in all nervous diseases, In tooth and nervous headache it acts like a charm every patient is delighted with its odor and very agreeable action. It will not miss once in thousand trials; it is certain to cure as the application is made. Put up in large bottles, and sold at only and 50 cents each; 81 and 84 124 per dozen.

Not a solitary complaint has ever been made in the sale 000 bottles and over in a few years. The of principal depots are 230 Pearl and 464 Broadway, one door above Grand st, and of the Druggists and Grocers generally throughout the city and country. It eradicates rheumatic and all other pains, heals old fever and mercurial sores, and all manner of scrofulous and glandular affections, together with akin diseases, it extracts fire and frost instantly, also the poison from the bites of insects and reptiles of every description; cuts, bruises and hard swellings. All Captains of steamers and masters of vessels, if there are any who have not given it a trial, if they will send us their address, we wil, give them a trial free of expense. As an internal remedy in all spasmodic complaints, cramps, bilious cholera, diarrhea, dysentery, piles, it has cholic, never failed.

As a diarcheatic, it cannot be surpassed; in difficul ties of the kidneys, and weaknesses of all kinds, in male or female, are immediately relieved, and a permanent 1 cure effected in a few days. Its action in coughs, colde, asthina, is to break up the matter and fountain-head, and produce an entire cure, and not simmer over for a few days, as the various nostrums generally do. We sat beside Mr. James Gordon Bennet on a certain occasion, and heard him cough almost incessantly. After some conversation in relation to the matter, we suggested a trial of our remedy, which, in a very short time, produced an agreeable change, and in a few weeks he considered himself entirely well, for which Mr.

B. has on several occasions alluded to the fact in his daily journal in the strongest possible terms. N. Druggists and merchants generally, who sell this great remedy say that they sell hundreds of this to one of any other in market, as 8 every bottle gives entire satisfaction in all circles of society.
