In such persons the appetite is generally defective, and the relish of life almost sub dued: they are wanting in that activity of mind and energy of conduct which their affairs require; and partly from conscious weakness, partly from excessive apprehensions, are liable to sink delondently into a premature grave. It was for these that the late Hector Solomon particularly designed his Cordial Balm of Gilead. The relief which great numbers have experienced from its renovating efficacy, warrants the strongest recommendation of a recourse to it to those who are similarly affected. It is prepared front the Original Receipt, by Trustees ap pointed ►y Will for that purpose; and is sold by Mr. Johnston, 6s, COMM; Mr. Sanger (late Bacon and Co•), 150, Oxford street ; Mr Ward, Holborn ; Mr. Stradling, !loyal Exchange, London ; and all Medicine Venders, in bottles, at 115. and Ns. each.

Alit —I will thank you to send me a supply of your valuable A NTISCORBUTIC DROPS. The sale of this stedicine, with me, at least, surpasses all cthers, which is a elm:instance of itself that speaks much in favaur of its merits, but is nothing compared with the t:stinionials of its efficacy which have conic to my knowledge : not to mention more than one instance : The wife of a most respectable person in this place, who had long been affected with the Scurvy in her face, to such a degree as quite to disk:tare her. was induced (from seeing your acher liscmcnts hi the 1.....ce5t0r Citron(*) to male trial: of a bottle or two of the Antiscorbutic Drops. This experiment she had no reason to complain of; on the contrary, she was highly g ratified to find their good effects even now strikingly manifest ; she therefore took two or three more 4s. 6d. bottles, and made use of the Lotion, till at length her face was quite free from those unpleasant eruptions, which had hitherto been productive of so mach pain, treuhle, and expense. Though she had occasionally experienced relief front Sea Bathing, yet the complaint soon after became as visible as.ever. It is now several months since year Medicine was last used, but there appears no probability of the return of the disease. Equal success has been manifested, where the parties had been recom mended to take the Drops by the Lady in question. I have been induced to say thus much of your Antiscorbutic Drops, at the request of the husband of the Lady alluded to, Who is anxious that those who may be similarly situated with herself, before she became acquainted with your Drops, may avail themselves of their use. _ _ It will give me pleasure to answer any inquiries, eitherper wally ur by letter (post-paid); and believe me, Sir, to remain, Ynur's, very respectfully, THOMAS THOMPSON, Chronicle Office, Leicester.

A NIONG the very numerous initances of the happy effects of the SOOTHING SYRUP, in cases of dentition, few are more worthy of attention than the following—The infant son of Mrs. Sibley, 18, hosier-lane,West Smithfield, commenced teething very early, but under the most distressing circumstances. The child, at nine months old, lost all the use of his limbs, and had no appearance of any teeth in the gums. He continued in' this state till three years old, without any use in his limbs, and so extremely emaciated that the mother could scarce move him in the cradle or in her lap. She was at last recommended to try the American Soothing Syrup, when, after using it only four days, the child was relieved by cutting four double teeth, and has been improving ever since.

Llou.her and Clip REPORT RELATIVE TO TILE SIOVING 800 OF KILMAa LEA DY, IN TIIE KING:S COUNTY ) MADE BY ORDER IttiYAL DUBLIN SOCIETY. Royal Dublin Society Home, July 16, 1821. Sot—Tn compliance with the request of the Royal Dublin o Soci y, conveyed to me by yirar letter of the 12t1 . 1 instant, I have visited the moving bog of Kilmaleady; and findino..,li my return to DulOin to-day, that very erroneous notions respecting its magnitude and destructive effects have been entertained, I think it my duty immediately to communicate to you, for the information of the Society, some account of the nature and extent of this once alarming phenomenon. The boe of Kilmaleady, from whence the eruption broke out, situated about two miles to the north of the village of Clem,. in the King's County, is of considerable extent ; it may probably contain about 500 acres; in many parts it is forty feet in depth, and it is considered to be the wettest bug in the country. It is bounded on all sides, except the south, by steep ridges of high land, which are composed, at the top, of limestone gravel, and beneath of cavernous limestone rock, containing subterranean streams; but the southern face of the bog is open to a moory valley, about a quarter of a mile in breadth, which, for nearly half a mile in length, takes a southern direction in the lands of Lisanisky, and then turns at right angles to the west, and conti nues gradually widening fur upwards of two miles. lrough the centre of this valley flows a stream about twelve feet in breadth, which serves as a discharge for the waters from the bug and the surrounding country, and finally joins the river Brusna, above the bridge of Ballycumber. The bog of Kilmaleady, like all ether deep and wet bogs, is composed, for the first eight or ten feet from the surface dawn. ward, of a reddish-brown spongy mass, formed of the still tin. decomposed fibres of *the bog moss, sphegnunt-i duster, which, by capillary attraction, absorbs water in great quantity. Beneath this fibrous mass, the bog gradually becomes pulpy, till at lengthy towards the bottom, it assumes the appearance, and when ere amined, the consistence of a black mud, rather he.:vier thm wa ter. The surface of the bog of Kilmaleady was elevated upwards of 20 feet above the level of the valley, front which it rise at a very steep angle, and its external face, owing to the uncommon dryness of the season, being. much firmer than usual, the inha bitants of the vOinity were enabled to sink their turf hides, and, cut turf at the depth of at least ten feet beneath the sur,ace of the valley, art l it: fact until they reached the blue clay, which forms the 3:llrstratnrn of the bog. Thus the faces of many of the turf banks reached the unusual height of thirty feet perpene circular; when a: length, on the 19th day of June, the lower pulpy and muddy part of the bog, which possessed little orate. sion, being utial,le to resist the great reisure of water from be hind, gave way, and being once set in motion, Seated the uppet part of the bog, and continued to•move with astooishing veto cito along the vel ey to the southward, forcing before it nut only the clamps of turf on the edge bo;, but even p .f the moory meadows, to the depth of several feet, the gr.se eurface of which heaved and turned over, almost like the waves of the ocean ; so that in a very short space of time the whole valley, for the breadth of about a quarter of a mile between the bug edge and the base of the hill of Li zanisky, was covered with nog to the depth of from eight to ten feet, and appeared everywhere studded with green patches of moory meadow. The hill of Lisanlaky retarded the progress of the bog for some time; but at length it began to flow at right angles, in its first course. along the valley, where it turns to the west, and con tinued with unabated rapidity till it reached the bog road of Kilbride (which runs directly across the valley, and is elevated five or six feet above it), and chuaked up the bridge through which the waters of the stream pass. This barrier retarded the progress of the bog for five days ; at the end of that time, the accumulation was such, from the still moving bog and the waters of the stream, that it flowed over the road, and covered the val ley to the south of it for about half a mile, Sowing with varied velocity till it was again stopped, for a few hours, as I under stand, by a second road across the valley, leading from Clara to Woodfield. (laving also overcome this obstacle, it proceeded slowly westward; and if its progress had not been checked by the very judicious means that have been employed, the whole extent of the valuable meadows, which compose the valley where it expands to the westward, must lung since have been covered. But, when the bog had passed over the road of Kilts and the conaternation in the country became general, at the de,ire of the Lords Justices, Mr. Gregory employed 31r. Ktlialy, Engi neer to the Directors General of Inland Navigation, to carry into execution any works that could be devised to arrest the pro gress of the bog. Mr. Kindly at once perceived, that the oniy feasible remedy was to draw oil the water that had hecurnu latest ; and to accomplish this end, lie employed a number of la bourers to open the course of the stream where it was choaked up ; also the drains through the valley that could be directed I into the stream. By this means the head of water was soon lowered, and in conseqLe:ice the bog ceased to flow—and all the loose masses which floated on the river were broken to pieces, by Labourers placed at iltervals throughout its course. Such was the situation of affairs on my arrival at the le.g early on Saturday morning. During the course of the day, I exerted myself to carry into execution the well-advised plan which had previously betel commenced by :air. Killaly. Towards evening the floating nooses which came down the river began to lessen considerably both in size and number; and, finding everything proceeded with regularity and certainty, I thought it useless to remain longer. At present I entertain no apprehension of further devastation from the bog, except in the event of a very great fall of rain during the present week. Slight rains would be of service to Increase the current of water, and facilitate the removal of a considerable deposit of heavy , bog mud, which at present fills the bottom of the stream. The general current has, how ever, been much increased by the breaking down of the weirs on the river Brusna, below the junction of the bog river. I shall now describe the present appearance and state of the bog and moory valley. In the centre of the bog, for the space of about a mile and a half in length, and a quarter of a mile in breadth, a valley has been formed, sloping at the bottont front the original surface of the bog, to the depth of ?AO feet, where the eruption first took. place. In this valley, or gulf, there are numberless concentric cuts, or fissures, filled with water nearly to the top. The valley between the edge of the bog and the road of Kil bride, for the length of half a mile, and an extent of between GO and 80 acres, may be considered as totally destroyed. It is covered by tolerably firm bog, from six to ten feet in depth, coo sisting at the surface of numberless green islands, composed of detached parts of the moory meadows, and of small rounded patches of the original heathy surface of the bog, varying front two to ten feet in diameter, which arc separated from each other by brown pulpy bog, and the bed of the original stream is ele vated to about eight ur ten feet above its former course, su as to Sow over the road. Beyond the road to Kilbride the bog has flowed for one mile westward, and covered from .0 to 70 acres; in this part the heathy patches of bog generally lessen in quantity; the green islands disappear, and nothing is observed but a thin deposit, consisting of a granulated black Log mud, varying fruit one to three feet in thickness. This, though destructive for the pre sent year, may, when dry, be burnt, and removed for manure to the neighbouring uplands, or left on the spot to fertilise the valley, Thus the whole distance which the bog has flowed is about three miles iu length, namely, one mile and a half in the bog. sod. the same distance over the re :wry valley; and the extent cover. 4 amounts to about 150 acres.—l have the honour to be, Sit, Your most obedient humble servant, RD .
