A Remarkable Man.
 This city is now the home of one of
the most remarkable men of the age——a
men who has traversed the civilized
-globe, and established ' in almost every
country which he has visited, the sale of
his medicines for the relief of humor:
“Dt3f¢1*ii1i%s,"and which are a certain cure
 diee'a”Ie in‘ all its forms. We allude to
afitotaisoit THOMAS lior.r.owAr, of Lon-
idbni ‘ It is now several years since this
‘benefactor of the human race first pro-'
5-claimed to the world, through the Brit-
iehpress, that he ‘had, after deep research »

‘-‘prepared a remedy that was sure to erad:
»‘icate disease. Years of patient investii
, ngatioiii into the laws of human physiolo.

gy which control our bodies in health
and when diseased, led to the invention
and preparation of the world renowned
Holloway’: Pills and Ointment. Near:
iy, if not quite one half of the human
ra‘ce‘”have. taken his medicines! His
"name is as universally known over the

lobe as that of Alexander, Napoleon or

‘ = aehington, when in the height of their

ambitious career. If they conquered na:
tione on the field of battle, Professor Hal;
lovvay has, with no weapon but that of
science, conquered disease in all its
forms. His meritorious career is boun:
ded by no imaginary lines of latitude and
longitude short of those marking the con:
fines of civilization itself. No isolated
country or nation was sufficiently exten:
sive for the operation of his enterprising
and gigantic intellect. Wherever dis:
..-his a residence, there he has pane‘

tratod with his medicines, and left an en!

viable and enduring reputation. After

-:‘- enlightening Europe, his fame‘ spread

over--Asia and the civilized portions of
Africa, and finally appeared in America

, He has translated the cures he has per-

formed and the virtues of his medicines
into as many languages as the missions-

ries have the Bible Governments other- .

wise the most despotic, have been forced
by the great value of his medicines, and
their popularity with the people, to re-
move antiquated and time honored res-
trictions upou the introduction of foreign
medicines, and open their custom houses
to a free introduction to the pills and
oI'ntrr_s_e_nr.‘ of this distinguished man.~—
Empires and kingdoms removed the bar-
riers of ages against the introduction of
proprietary or patent medicines, and per-
mitted flolloway’s medicines to become
thephysician of the masses.

Ezatraordmary Scene at ca Ba.lci- A

more Hote£——An Unfaithful Wife.—
' An incident occurred at one of the prin-
cipal hotels of our city on Thursday
night, in which a husband and wife sus-
tained the principal parts, although a
"young man, from the peculiarly of his

' position, necessarily formed a‘part there-

‘ of. From what we have learned of the
case, it appears that a gentleman arri-
ved at the hotel and took rooms await-
ing the arrival of his lady. She did not

‘ make her appearance at the appointed

‘ time’, and the husband thought that some
‘unavoidable incident had detained her.
Du’ Thursday evening however, an ac-
quaintance rriet him, and after congratu-

. latlng him, mentioned that he had seen

‘his wife at the same hotel where he was
' stopping. The husband, much astonish-
“'£d’,"i_nsistcd that he must be mistaken,
I bill on making inquiries, ascertained that
a lady answering the description, was
indeed stopping there, but had retired
' with her husband. He proceeded to

ciug himself by her, he entered the
room, and found a young gentleman
snugly ensconced beneath the eheets.—-
He begged piteously not to be murder-
ed. as did the faithless wife; and the in.
jured husband, like a sensible man, in.
stead of spilling blood, drove them both
down the stairs, and into the street, half
‘raised, telling them as they seemed so

Taxation of Savings Bonita.

The subject of taxing deposits
different Institutions for S«- '
State seems about tr

tion of the T
of 2 " '. go
' ' J * ’~.-red to
‘ ’ ~ ‘ .nis subject,
-‘ .: .--enlb" "jislature should
bear in . ‘e are two_ v ry
dist‘? . these Institutions—-

S.-. . - properly so called---and
‘ are denominated Savings
Building Associations. These
sees are very dissimilar in their
.-s of doing-business, and are made
' . by the express provisions of their
charters. They are alike in -only one
particular, that of receiving deposits.
The old chartered Institutions, or Sa-
vings Banks, properly so called, loan
their funds, for the most part, on real es-
tate, at half its value or less, at six per
cent. The same real estate is set in the
list to the owner at its value, notwith-
standing its incutnbrance, so that the se-
curity on which deposits are loaned is
fully taxed and the tax paid by the bor-
rower. In addition the Savings Banks
themselves ppy a tax to the Sate of one
eighth of one per cent on the amount of
their deposits. It will thus be seen
that this money is doubly representedin
the tax list-——once through its" securities
and once directly. Were it not fo_r.the
facilities ._with which loans can be obtai-
ned from such Institutions,’ there would
not be such a demand for real estate,‘
and its price would be lowered a_nd'the
grand list suffer in consequence. '
In the management of these Institu-
tions, the utmost care is taken that the
interestof. the depositors should be se-
cured by loaning, not on personal secu-
rity, but on real estate, and by forbidding
any trustee or director from borrowing
or becoming surety for a borrower, or in
any way having any personal or private
interest in the loans. The object__ of
these restrictions is to assist the deposit-
or-—to render everything secure forfhim
—-and to fortify the confidence he. may
have in the Instition. This step is ‘nec-
essary because the depositors generally
are poor and belong to the laboring
class, need some safe place where they
may preserve thesmall pittance leftgof
their hard earnings. Taxes on such
deposits would therefore press heavily
upon a class who hear burdens enough
already in these difficult times. Besides,
this description of property is taxed. al-
ready by ‘the one eighth of one per cent
paid to the State from the profits of the
Institution, and in the full tax,on._ the
real estate of the borrower. . '
In the other class of Savings Banks--V
that of the Building Associations-—-the
stockholders are the borrowers, and tune
become personally interested.0 The
loansthus obtained yield more than six
per cent. to the Institution. and often
become a source of great profit to those
who own stock and are not borrowers.
These organizations are allowed to loan
money at any rate they can agree upon,
and thus become profitable banks of dis-
count. Taxes therefore, laid upon the
stockholders of such institutions, will be
a very different thing from taxes laid on
the depositors of the old lashioned Sa-
viiigs Banks.
ence we argue that these two clas-
ses of our public Institutions should not
be confounded together in any reason-
inge on the subject of taxation, or in any
plans for adding to the public burdens.
he Legislature ought to clearly‘ and
distinctly recognize the difference be-
tween these two classes, as having been
organized for different purposes, and
governed bvdiiferent regulations. Each
class has its own merits, and each may
be of benefit in its own way, but they
have different ends in victv.——C’ourrmt.

The TW1r.+TI1@ news -is -of the most

the Allies. First by the last arrival we

position of defence, or place d’armze.' be-
for'e.Sevastopol. This occurred during
the nightsnof the 22d and 23d, and was
a most sanguinary afl"air, the place being
defended by nearly the whole garrison.
The total losses on both sides in killed
and wounded, are set down at 8000.-—
Gen. Pelissier says the Russian loss was
ériormous and that of his own troops cou-
eiderale though much less. The.Freiich
refain-ed their position. Prince Gortsclia-
kofie account of the affair is this : "Yester-

the Bridge, where after parading our stror-t,q_

they will partake of a collation provided bv
our citizens under the Mammoth Tent ti, 
erected for the exhibition of the California

out for Lemonading during the day, and Sere-

Steamboat Excursion back to the City accom-

George Law. on Friday Morning.

Our Firemen are also to make a turn but

Baby Show.

Some of the premiums at Barnum’: great
and foolish Baby Show were ‘bestowed upon
Cannecticut children. From one family in
Danbury by the name of Sprague, there were
exhibited one triplet of children and one set of
twins. The triplet by name of Harrison Tay-
lor, Hannah Jane and Harriet Eliza, had 820
preiniuiufand the twins had the first premium
among those interesting specimens of humani-
ty amounting to 350. They werecalled Wil-
lis Francis and Willard Franklin Sprague.——
The triplet was aged five years. and the twins
three. If the parents go on thus, and give
double names to their children, they will soon
exhaust the ordinary stock of appelaticns.

The first premium of $70 for rrins, (if we
may be allowed to coin a word,) was given to
Delia, Cornelia, and Julia Bullrley of New
Milford. None of the fat children belonged
to this Stm:c.—- Courant.
