SCROFULA. Isle of Walney, near lerlverstone, June 11, 1821. SIR —I was dreadfully afflicted with a scorbutic running ulcer in my neck, for the space of nine months, which was most severe under the right side of my jaw. After baying tried various medicines, and seeking the advice of the most eminent of the faculty, I was brought to the most deplo. T;ble state, and saw no relief but in that dissolution which I verily believed to be near at hand; at length, being advised by a friend to try the efficacy of your ANTISCORBUTIC DROPS, I purchased a 4s. 6d. bottle, and before I had taken them a fortnight, I found great relief a short time after, all the inner part of the afflicted jaw bone came out, and then my cure w,,s completed by the ulcer gradually healing like a common rY~und. I, however, continued to take the Drops till I had I.lished the second b ottle, and now enjoy as perfect health as I ever had in my life. I am, Sir, your grateful and obedient servant, Witness S.

THE DEAD ALIVE! OR, THE TOPER RESUSCITATED. AToper, who yet in his dress found del i g h t , Array'd himself once in a pair of bright Boots, By Warren's Jet Blacking that seem'd the pursuits Of devils displaying; they shone on the sight The shades of resection, and skipp'd to and fro, Like frolicsome Imps in each Boot's jetty glow! Asleep in the Alehouse, this Toper, and snoring, The guests were alarm'd, for the Imps seem'd encoring, And joining in chorus, in mirthful pursuit, The strange serenade, as it sweli'd from each Boot A fellow now slipp'd o'er the Sleeper a sack, And raising him, devils and all, on his back, Away to a noted C,onyeyanner bore bim ! " A subject !" he said, on the floor as he laid him ; And just as the price of the body was paid him, It sprung from the sack, and cried out in terroreus " This man is alive ! (cried the dealer) by Gen I" " He is !" said the other—" 'tis cursedly odd!" And gaining the door—" in the Cellar then plant him, And there you can kill bliss, you know, when you w.mt him !" Enrag'd at tip hoax—" Should these devils appear— He said—but the sentence remain'd incompieted, For Devils appear !" now the Toper repeated : The Dealer then, lost in amazement and fear, His image descried in each Boot, and he thought The Toper's command these young devils had brought ! His speech underwent a quick paraly cation— ° No mo-nro-mo-ntore saran-a-a-aation !" Thus scared from live subjects, when dead ones attacking, He thinks of the visions in Warreres Jet Blacking ! This Easy Shining and Brilliant BLACKING Prepared by MODERN GALLANTRY.:- FROM THE LONDON MAGAZINE. In comparing modern with \ancient manners, we are pleased to compliment ourselves upon the point of gallantry, as upon a thing altogether nnknottn•to the old classic ages. This has been defined to consist in a certain obsequiousness, or deferential respect paid to females, as females. I shall believe that this principle actuates our cim-, duct, when I can forget, that in the nineteenth cen tury of the era, from which we date our civility, we are but just beginning to leave off the very frequent practice cif whipping females in public, in common with the coarsest male offenders. I shall believe it to be infinential, when I can shut my eyes to the fact, that in Elgiand women are still occasionally—banged. I shall believe in it, wheeactresses are no longer subject to be hissed off a stage by Gentlemen. I shall believe in it, when Dorimant hands a fish wife across the kennel ; or assists the apple-women to pick up her wandering fruit, which some unlucky dray has just dissipated. I shall believe in it, when the Dorimant in humbler life,who would be thought in their way notable adepts in this refinement, shall act upon it in, places where they are not known, or think themselves not ob served—when I shall see the traveller `for some rich tradesman part with his admired Emx-coat s to spread it over the defenceless shoulders of the poor woman, who is passing ts 3 her parish on the mot' of the same stagecoach with him, drenched ; in the rain—whea I shall no longer see a woman standing np in the pit of a London Theatre, till she is sick and faint with the exertion, with men about her, seated at theircase, and jeering atter distress; till one, that seems to have more manners or conscience than the rest, signifi cantly declares, ig she would be welcome ,to his seat, if she were a little younger and handsomer." Place this dapper warehouseman, or that rider, in a circle of their own female acquaintance, and you shall con- 1 fess you have not seen-a politer-bred man in Lothbury. Lastly, I shall begin to believe that there is some such principle, influencing our conduct, when more than one half of the drudgery and coarse servitude of the world shall cease to be perforrned'by Until that day comeo, I shall never believe - this boasted point to be any thing more than a conven tional fiction; a pageant got up between the sexes, in a certain rank, and at a certain time of life, in which both find their account equally. I shall be even disposed to rank it among the salutary fictions of life, when in polite circles I shall see the same attentions paid to age. as to youth, to homely features as to handsome, to coarse com plexions as to clear—to the woman, as she is a woman, not as she is a beauty, a fortune, or a title. I shall believe it to be something more than a name, when a well-dressed gentleman in a well-dressed com pany can advert to the topic of female old age without exciting, and intending to excite a sneer :—when the phrases if antiquated virginity," and such a one has overstaid her market, pronounced in good com pany, shall raise immediate offence, in man or woman that shall hear them spoken. Joseph Paice, of Bread-street-hill, merchant, and one of the Directors of the South Sea Company—the same to whom Edward:, the Shakspeare commenta tor, has addressed a fine sonnet—was the only pat tern of consistent gallantry I have met with. He took me under his shelter at an early , age, and be stowed some pains upon me. I owe to his precepts and example whatever there is of the man of business (and that is not much) in my compo.,ition. It was not his fault that I did not profit tnore. Though bred a Presbyterian, and brought up a merchant, he was the finest gentleman of his time. He had not one system of attention to females in the drawing-room, and another in the shop, or at the stall. Ido not mean that he made no distinction. But he never lost sight of sex, or overlooked it in the casualties of a dis advantazeous sititation. I have seen him stand bare- akd ftailArz.

I have seen him—nay, smile not—tenderly escorting a market-woman, whom he had encountered in a shoWer, exalting his umbrella over her poor basket Of fruit, that it might receive' no damage, with as much carefulness as if she had been a Countess. To the reverend form of Fernald Eld he would yield the wall (though it were tb an ancient beggar-woman) with more ceremony than we can afford to chew our grandams. He was the Preux Chevalier of Age ; the Sir Calidore, or Sir Tristan, to those who have no Calidores or Tristaqsao defend them. • The roses, that had long faded thence, still bloomed for him in those withered and.yelloW cheeks: He was never married, but in his youth he paid his addresses to the beautiful Susan Winstanley—old Winstanley's daughter of Clapton—who dying in the . early days of their courtship, confirmed in him the resolution of perpetual bachelorship. It tvai during their short courtship, he told me, that he had been one day treating his mistress with a profusion of civil. speeches—the common ga ll antr i es — to w hi c h ki n d o f thing she had hitherto manifested no repugnance—but in this instance with no effect. He could not obtain from her a decent acknowledgment in return. She rather seemed to resent his compliment". He could not set it down to caprice, for the lady had always shewn herself above that littleness. When he ven tured on the following day, finding her a little better humoured, to expostulate with her on the coldness of yesterday, she confessed, with her usual frankness, that she had no sort of dislike to his attentions ; that she could even endure some high-flown compliments; that a young woman placed in her situation had a right to expect all sort of civil things said to her; that she hoped, she inlaid digest a dose of adulation, short of insincerity, with as little injury to her humi lity as most young women:, but that , —a htfore he had commenced his compliments—she had over heard him by accident, in, rather rough language, 'rating a young woman, who had -not brought home 'his cravats quite to the appointed time, and she thought to herself, " As I am Miss Susan Winstan ley, and a young lady—a reputed b ea u t y, an d k nown to be a fortune—l can have my choice of the finest speeches from the mouth• of this very fine gentleman who is courting. me-,.bot if, I had been poor Mary Such-a-one.--(nanting-the nrilliner)—arid had failed of bringing home the Cravats to the appointed hour —though perhaps 1 had sat up half the night to for ward them.--what sort of compliments should I have received then ?—And my woman's pride came to my assistance ; and I thought, that if it were only to do ',re honour, a female, like myself, might have re ceived handsomer usage: and I was determined not to accept any fine speeches, to the compromise of that sex, the belonging to which was . after all my strongest claim and title to them." I think the lady,diseoveted birth generosity, and a just way of thinEinx, In this rebuke Which she gave her lover; and I' have sometimes imagined, that the - uncommon strain of courtesy, which throug h life re gulated the actions and behaviour of m y triend to wards all of womankind indiscriminately,, .owed Its happy origin to this seasonalsklition — frOm the lips of his lamented mistress. .; I wish the whole female worid would entertain the same notion of ',these . tiliagl,„4l4 Winstauley W shewed. Then e should . see som i etinpg'if the spirit of consistent gallantry ; and ,no itniger• Oeitness the anomaly of the same man,a pattern of true polite ness to a wife—of cold contempt; or rudeness, to a sister--)te idolater of his female mistre s s—the dis parager and despiser of his no less female aunt, or unfortunate—still female—maiden cousin. Just so much respect as a woman derogates from her own sex, in whatever condition placed—Kr handmaid, or dependant—she deserves to have dithinished from herself on that score; and probably will feel the di minution, when youth, and beauty, and advantages, not inseparable from sex, shall lose of their attrac tion. What a woman should demand of . a man in courtship, or after it, is first— s respect for her as she is a woman ;—and next to that—to be respected by trim above all other women. But let her stand upon her female character, as upon a foundation ; and let the attentions, incident to individual preference, be so many pretty additaments, and ornaments—as many, and as fanciful, as you please—to that main . 4.tructure. Let her first lesson be—with sweet Susan Winstanley—to reverence her sex! ELIA.

The Inquest, on examination, was of opinion that his death was occa sioned by the bite of a rattle-snake which appeared on his ancle. He was to have been married on the day following to Miss Catharine Chamber", of this Ai county, and W S n search of his horse to ride on the occasion, when he received the deadly blow. No in telligence being heard of him until the morning of the day in which he was to have been' united to Miss Ch a mbers, she made the necessary preparations ; the marriage pal ty was collected, and were waiting tat merry mood the approach of the expected bruit,- groom when they received the painful intelligence of his death. The scene was then changed, and the in tended bi ide, together with all who bad assembled to witness their happy nuptials, repaired to his burial.
