IT has been too fatally obseetect-shat the drastic .L operation of the usual AnthelMinitics net unoften leaves the constitution of a Worm-Patient more debilitated and irri. table than before their exhibition; thus exemplifying the homely truth, that " the remedy is worse than the disease ;"—but the cure is seldom effected—and in the list of the " epprobria memo. runs," diseases arising from worms display an awful predominance. In early infancy, convulsions, fever, watery-head, and other fearful maladies are often orly the effects of worms, the re moval of which would so mitigate the symptoms as to ensure a mild treatment of an otherwise doubtful case. To a Mother's anxiety this assurance will impart no small consolation—and to the adult patient, whose hopes have been long necked and at length desolated by delay and disappointment, this prospect of certain relief will cheer him to the trial of an inestimable remedy. Mr. CHAIMBIKLAINZ'S Preparations of COW HA GE are mild and innocuous, have an operation purely mechanical, are sanctioned' I by the most eminent of the Faculty, and his Treatise on the subject contains testimonials highly honourable to his practice.

MONTREAL, JUNE is. 1110 X THE CANADIAN TAMA On the morning of the l Bth i ost. three boys, the eldest about 17 years of age, having been to the mill of Mr. P. Wright, of Hull, were returning to the eastern side of the Ottaway in a canoe, containing about 600 weight of flour. Unfortunately, from want of knowledge of the danger which they must incur in crossing so near the Chene Rapids, they did not go far enough up the river. After having pad dled nearly half the width of the river, the canoe was observed by several on the shore to be irresistibly drawn by the force of the current towards the vortex which this tremendous rapid presents. She was going down by oadside, in which case immediate death must have been the event. But with presence of mind, although death seemed to stare them in the face, the boy at the helm righted her, and headed down the stream. Scarcely bad he done this, when, with the velocity of lightning, the canoe dashed among the terrific breakers. A moment, and she was lost to the petrified spectators on the banks, who stood in full view of the scene, with dreadful consciousness that they could render no assistance to the sufferers. Again the canoe appeared, and the largest boy was seen to throw overboard some bags of flour. Instantaneously they disappeared amongst the waves, and the spec tators gave them up as lost. Although the can )e was forced through a swell, which is said to rise above 20 feet high, yet the boys adhered to the boat, vthich was upset three times in succession. Messrs. M‘Gilli vray and Monier, of Hull, who had been witnesses to this scene, ran to the lower landing, where by chatsce they found a canoe, sprang into it, and pulled for the other side, to save the boys if possible. Another, how ever, had rowed towards them from the other side, and found them clinging around their canoe, which was upset. The swell.was still so great that those who came to assist could not reach them. They were, therefore, obliged to let them float down still further, before they could take them out of their perilous con dition, still keeping within call of them. The largest boy had, with admirable presence oLmind, as soon as they emerged from the heaviest part of the swell; directed the smaller two to approach each other, and lock their arms across the bottom of the canoe. This was done, and he placed himself at the stern, and grasping with his hands the gunwale on both sides, gave her direction down the stream. They were per ceived in this situation by the canoe from the eastern . side. After they had gone down about a mile, they were taken off, previous to which, the smaller boys complained grievously that their bands were cramped. A fire was kindled on shore; warm clothes procured for the sufferers, and they, who but a few moments before seemed to have passed the harri.r between life and death, were rescued from the dreadful fate which threatened then]. Execurrons IRELAND.SattIrd2, week, the Un fortunate man named Gleeson, who was tried and found guilty of a murder, in the county of Tipperary, twelve years ago, was hanged at Clonmel. About one o'clock the wretched culprit appeared on 'the platform, :hewing every symptom of penitence, and never was there a man more sensibly alive to his si tuation. Ills countenance was flashed, and exhibited the contrition of his heart. He was absorbed in prayer. He addressed the crowd in a few words, hut in so low a tone as scarcely to be heArd, unless by those immediately near him. fleconfessed the crime for which he was about to suffer, and the justness of his sentence, and stated that the wicked deed arose from intoxication, and previous grudge. After hang ing the usual time, he was cuf down, and his body sent to the County Infirmary (Cashel) for dissection. Monday, the 4th inst. Daniel O'Connell, convicted of the murder of D. Morissy, of Cappanahane, on the 22d of February,lB22, underwent the awful sentence of the law, by being hanged in ft ont of the county jail of Limerick. He acknowledged that he was con cerned in breaking open Morissy's house, but declared he did not fire the shot which deprived him of ex istence. He appeared to be a well-looking fellow, be tween 50 and 60 years of age, and lived for some time as postillion in respectable families. After hang ing the usual time, his body was conveyed to the In firmary for dissection. His associates in crime being convicted for breaking into Morissy's house, via. Jeremiah Nunan, James O'Connell, and John Dundon, are to be executed on the 22d inst. FRaNCH LANGUAGE.—To parody a famoos expres. sion of MIIIABEAU, it may be said that ‘i the French language is making th e tour o f t h e world. " A French Journal is now printed at Smyrna, under the tide of The Speciateur Orient a l ; and another at Odessa two French Papers appear at Madrid, the one entitled The Rekulateur a and the other The Bou.ssole. England has its Courier de Londres ; and several French Journals appear in vari ous parts of Germany and Switzerland. Such are the accounts of the French themselves of their language. Let ui compare them with the Eng lish, destined perhaps one day to exceed all other languages in universality :—ln Paris i .one Paper; in Br ussels ; one ; in Canada, several ; in Atherica, be. tween three and four hundred ; in the different West India Islands, seven or eight at least ; in New South Wales, twn and a Magazine; in India, five or six, and also one or two periodical works ;at the Cape of Good Hope, and in our other Colonies, one Paper at least. While 15,000,000 of persons in the . West In dies and America, 20,000,000 at home, and half s million or more in the different Colonies of the East and in Europe, making a total of 35,500,000 inha biting every climate, speak the English tongue from childhood ; besides all those foreigners whom litera ture or trade induce to study it. The increase of the English language in America,, in the East, and in New South Wales, will only be limited by a territory which far exceeds one rarter of the globe, when its population shall be at a stand.
