But -he . will not gut hr himself "to *see ,the resemblance . between the essential elements of the two times, or to draw the unflattering inference . .which such a yeseMblance ,dictates. He -will not see the same type ,of national - character in the popuhice whiclislded with the privileged magi4racy of . France to extort- further concessions from Anne-of Austria. and the mob .whi6 forced the Stales- General to extort the abolition of all privileges from Leuis XVI. Nor will he see the same popular charac teristico, under different circumstances and different powers of confederation, in the nation which, after sub jecting the Revolution to the Mountain, merged it in a submission to a dictatorship, and the nation which, after clamouring against corvees, feudal imposts, and unequal - laws, coalesced with a greedy judicature and a profliate noblesse to sacrifice the advant ages w hi c h liberty 'had gained to the firmness of the Queen and the astuteness of Masada. How much of that antithetical mixture of tragedy and -farce—of extreme horrors and extreme levity—which so strangely colours either of these revo lotions, may be traced in the earliest and most familiar description of Gallic character the Duc de Eroglienatu gaily forbears to intimate. But a life so chequered as his has been cannot fail to suggest to so practised a statesman contemplations which find, perhaps, rather cons, lation than expression in the beautiful words which he delights to quote :- 1 ~......,......—5.,..

WAR DRPARTMENT, APRIL 10. Lord Pa.nmare has this day recaived a Despatch and its Enclosure, of yvoich the following pre copies, acliressed to his Lordship by Gen:Sir William Coftrington, K.C.B. (From the Times of this day.) Education, after having been long botched and bun gled-after the fashinn of most new subjects, having fallen into the hands of bitter .. intolerance-at one time and rash - etripirie*mat another, is-i 0 a fair way at- last of being _better .. understood, because men have undertaken to dia- CUSS it sitho. can bett.r :underitand it, -and vih6 are: also better able to explain it. It seems to have been assumed itlieTto, that the rfiethed of educating a nation must ,of eecessity be uniform, that what is true of- Austria acid Prussia must be true of England, and, that 13,scause- the*. --State, which is.ever~ thing and dues.everything in those. • countries, takes under its absolute control the education of the-people, just as it does everything else, therefore the State in Eogland should also take upon it-elf the entire management of Schools,' the entire direction 'of what is to be taught there; should compel the people to contribute for their sup Port, and firm the whole educa tional body into one compact and well-organised hier archy, full of system, discipline,. and subordination. Such is the plan of Lord John Russell, and such is the result of his five-and-thirty years' experience of the peo ple and Parliament of this country. The first, and perhaps the most conclusive objection to this scheme, though the one least susceptible of ac curate and logical-. statement, is' that- it is utterly ab. horrent to the genius of the nation. It is our pride, and probably a just pride, that we are pot goyerned, but that we govern ourselves—that the business of -our central authority consists much more in aiding than: in super-. 'ceding local effort, and that it is the duty of our Govern ment rather to co-operatis with than to control us. What we do for ourselves we generally do well ; ,avliat is dtrno for us by our, Government is as universally ill done. These considerations point clearly_ to a conclusion of practical statesmanship,—that the man who would com pass any great end in this country must make the people his coadjutors rather than his instruments, and enable thorn to work out his plans for themselve', instead of working out thoie plans for them. Lord John Russell, though so many years a ruler in Israel, knows not these things, and therefore Lord John Russell has propounded a scheme which has repelled all parties—Liberal, Tory, and Conservative. • Sebastopol, March 25, 1856. My Lora,.--I have the Itonour to transmit herewith, for your Lordship's information, the' weekly report cf the health of the Army. 4 -I . hafie, SLc ODDRINGTON, General -Commanding. The Lord Panmure, . • Enclosure. - Head-iquirters, Camp, Crimea, March 24. - Sir,-,-Lhava the honour to enclose VIE, weekly return of sick to the 22d-instint, and it is gratifying to state that, notwithstauling.the recent arrival of several drafts of-re cruits, and the cold-winds which have prevailed from the N. an I N.E. during the whole of the past week, the in crease of admissions into hospital has only been a small fraction higher than it was last week, and the mortality has fallen near:yone-third. - THE RAILWAY FORGERIES. Knightly, the clerk in tha Great Southern and Western Railway, was fully committed yesterday to take his trial on a charge of having forged trans fers of the company's shares to the amount, as far as can be ascertained, ofabout 2,0001. The magis. trates refused to take bail for his appearance at the next commission. THE MURDER OF MRS. KELLY. The Evening Post supplies the following parti culars of the enormous property of the late Mrs. Kelly : Even in the . : Land Transport Corps the health of the men has been more satisfactory ; rod although there has been no decrease in the number of admissions during the week, the mortality has fallen more than one-half. Taking the whole force in the Crimea, including Land Transport Corgi, Army, Works C orps, an d M e di ca l St a ff Corps, the admissions to strength have only been in the ratio of 2.41 per cant. ; deaths to strength, 01 per cent. ; and sick to well, 4'41 per cent, Last week they were re spectively, 2'15, o'ol, 4 . 29: Of the 16 deaths which occurred in the whole force servinq in the Crimea, seven took place in the Land Trans pelt alone; and out of the ifi, three, I am sorry to ob• serve, were from the direct effects,of drunkenness ; and in how many other cases that vice, may have been the exciting cause of disease, it is .49,sibl t e to say. Bat with all these defects, awl draw ictife - itealth of the earim-aecordingtollTe`ratioi given above, may be fairly said to b 3 in a very satisfactory state. Tne troops stationed at Kertoh are equally healthy, and no casualty had occurred there during the week ending 14th March, which is the latest date up to which I have received returns from the senior medic.l officer there. The cavalry division in the B isphorus is also very healthy, and only two deaths had, occurred in it during the week ending 11th March. Taking the sick of the whole British force in Turkey, both in general and regimental hospitals, the ratio of death to strength has only been o'o3 per cant., and the ratio of sick to well 6.09 per cent.—l have, &c., " The estate of Ballinderry, where the murdar took place, contains nearly 1,500 acres. Mrs. Kelly had been engaged in draining and improving it. There is little exaggeration as to the extent of the property obtained by the deceased under the will of her husband, Mr. Ed mond Kelly, of Rook wood, which had been the subject of such ln the cause of 'Kelly v. ar - tue - rrerogative Court 'and . the Court - a aslegates. Besides landed estates" to the Value of -be tween 7,000/. and 8,0001. a-year, Mrs. Kelly obtained nearly 250,000/. in funded property. In space in 'which she had been proseeutrix Sinneriahe was stated to have paid 30,000 j. kijanvestmeutiiiharettros peen- which siird'eventualli she lost. Bat her chattel property must still have been upwards of 200,0001. She had lent 134,0001. to the Midland Great Western Railway Company, for which she held a mortgage on the Royal Canal, the property of that company, for which she has been receiving nearly 7,000/. per annum. Mrs. Kelly, about a year since made a will, which was dept. sited for safe keeping at the bank of Messrs. Boyle, Low, and Co. where it now remains." M. Nisard takes a less hopeless view of humanity, but perhaps a not less just view of the nature and neces sities of Frenchmen. Not less patriotic than the ancient peer of France, he desires glory for - his country, glory in war_and in the triumphs of peace. But he wishes to see this attained under the directing control of a strong sovereign arm, one which can combat - the intrigues of the rebellious, and overcome the combina tions of the turbulent. In his view, France is a grand army marching on to warlike or pacific conquest, but requiring the ever-watchful eye of a vigilant and active commander, ready to stimulate the courage of his sol diers by his own energy, but not less ready to repress their disaffection by the severest discipline, or punish it with the severest castigation. The past teaches him as little faith in the organised constitution of. Parliaments as in the tumultuous aspirations of his countrymen after any political right or any political enjoyment. Each and all have failed of their ostensible objects ; but they have not failed in one thing. They have ended in obtaining for France the chieftainship of a dominant will, at once impersonating her energies and sympathising wth her wants. France fonnd this in Mazarin and Louis XIV. after the tracasseries of the Fronde. She found it in Napoleon I. after the massacres of the Terrorists. We leave it to M. Nisard to.supply the name which has ad naini;tered to her latest thirst for repose after her expe rience of the enteutes under Louis Philippe and the car nage under the Provisional Government. Nor will M. Nisard's oblique insinuation fail to strike the most heed lees minds either.in France or abroad. It is by pure accident. that the man who in the 17th century crushed the conspiracies of the Frondeurs and restored tran quillity to Franca was a foreigner—an Italian,—who earned by his benefactions the title of " anssi bien Fran cais que le meilleur de son temps ;"and that twice with in the last 60 year; France has owed the restoration of order, tranquillity, end glory to a family Italian by origin, and more than French by sympathy ? The discours of M. Nisard is highly suggestive—not so much by what it says as by what it omits to say. Nor 'rave we reason to suppose his opinions, delicately and ingeniously conveyed, are singular in France. How fir his or the Duo de Brogli e ' s jugment may be in the right it is not for us to pronounce. Speaking as friends, but also as strangers removed frOm the immediate scene of action, we should say that, although the latter has the advantage in hopefulness, the former is stronger in truth. The recorded past justifies M. Nisard's love of a Htrong government • but the Duke's sanguine t r u s t i n the virtues of his ki n d indicates the existence of that benevolence and that equity, without which statesman ship ultimately degenerates into a calculation of ants gonist vices, and public life becomes the market of com peting venatstie'. The Freeman correspondent, writes from Abate, last night, as follows : _ "Mns. Kelly's property of Ballinderry is situated about ono mile from the town of Moate, in the county of Westmeath. She held 200 acres in her possession, and the management of it was intrusted to her nephew, Mr. George Strevens. Mrs. Kelly had been residing in England since last November, and only returned to Ballinderry about a fortnight ago, accompanied by her solicitor, Mr. Campion. It is stated that three or four tenants had recently been served with ejectments on the part of the unfortunate lady, hut they were not pro cceeded with. Mr. Campion had brought down five or six stamped aqreements, which the tenants were to sign for an increase.' rent. This was to have been done in the course of a few days ; but it is said the tenants were satisfied with the arrangem, nt. However this may be, the police have taken two of them into custody, and also a blowing man named Owen Waters, who was in the employment of the deceased, and who had been absent from work drniag a part of the day pu which the Incr. dertookplace. - J.

One word in conclusion. In justice to M. Nisard, we cannot refrain from acknowledging with gratitude his manly and intelligent protest against that wretched ma terialism of which France has not yet, we fear, reaped the last or bitterest fruits and, in partingkzith these I two diitinguished ornaments of their country, let us hope that, whatever be the colour of their politics or her destiny, she and they may find many a worthy champion to follow their example in fighting against l'itrange doctrine qui fait de la personalite humaine un resultat des dispositions de la rnatiere, et de la pensh on pro duit des nerfs du cerveau." - 411.111111111011111111MMIMIll . . . -•- . .: • - .. . ~ ~ -.-. - - • 111 4. •-, •- - ' ' 455 '. - . • - - .. 040 1 140 SA.L 0 M O_N S, Mayor.-A C 0 M M .

We are invited to change the present system of edu cation, and have a right to ask from our would-be guide that he should show us something better. The theorist may look down upon an .educational system such as ours has grown into, but the man who knows his country men is aware that it is doing all that any Government system can effeet, that we Cave already reached the full amount of interference that public opinion will bear, and that to ' o•o beyond this critic a l poi n t i s on l y to provoke a recoil which may delay indefinitely further progress in the path of national instruction. Such legislators as Lord John Russell in their attempts to manage mankind are apt to overlook altogether the effects of the principle of association. In their anxiety to work out a particular formula they overlook feelings which they ought to re spect an prejudices which they are bound to conciliate. To them it is no matter whether the education of the people be accompanied with those notions of restraint aed corn pelsion, of State interference and dictation, so odious to an Englishman, even when necessary, or whe ther he shell be led imperceptibly to regard it as the work of his own hands, as the offspring of his own mind, as his pride, his amusement, his occupation. At first people grumbled much at that State inspection, which a moment's consideration must have shown them to be absolutely necessary to secure the proper application of State funds. Thee grumble still, but nevertheless the work advances. Nei one new disputes the necessity of -education ; very few seek to clog it with unreasonable trammels. To promote it is recopi ed by most peo ple as a duty, by the feet as a fasbicn ; for, short as our teaching comes of our wishes, it is nevertheless greater, we believe, than could be secures by any other means than those now employed ; and it is by its pro bable state under a c ha nge o f sys t em , rat h er t h an b y any ideal standard, that our progress ought to be measured. If we adopt a compulsory rate, we may be perfectly sure that its first effect will be to destroy ail schools sup ported by private funds, though we are by no means so sure that it would provide anything to replace them. We caa imagine no niachinery so calculated to disgust our people with education as that which first empowers ratepayers to tax themselves, and, upon their refusal to do so, authorises a body with which they have little sympathy and no connexion—the Court of Quarter Sessions—to impose a tax instead, unless, indeed, it be the plan of Sir John Pakington, which upon the refusal of the ratepayers to tax themselves, requires them to appoint a school committee to tax them, as if they would he willing to do that by an agent which they refuse to do as pricipals ; as if they would not take care to elect a body whose views on taxation exactly coincided with their own • as if powers of rating and election were not mere insults when they are only meant as a means of depriving the ratspayerseand eleatora.of e that control over their own concerns which those names imply. We have left out one consideration—the religious part of the question—though this presents difficulties of no ordinary magnitude. Whether the people of England can ever be brought to consent to a general education rate we do not know, but certain it is that they will never be brought to such consent till they are prepared to embrace 'a general system of secular education,—a conclusion from which they at this moment appear very far removed. It is to us perfectly inconceivable—we will not say how Lord John Russell, but how any man who witnesses the bitter conflict abdut every farthing that is paid out of the resources of the State for reli gious purposes, can suppose that he is forwarding the interests of education by involving-it in the-same class of difficulties which beset the question of Church rates, of Ministers' Money, rr of the Regium Donum. We are so heairily rated already that the addition of any new rate must be. of itself unpopular. How much more un popular will it be when it implies the violation of the vo luntary principle, and appropriates money taken under an actmf Parliament to rudimentary instruction in re - Strange, when we can now do almost all we deetirco-withotit Offence; we should 'find statesmen rash enough to attempt it in the most offensive manner, and for the Sake of a slight and problematical improvement to risk the whole of the Vsntage ground WQ have gained. The result of last night's division will be a salutary , leson to Ouse who imagine that the, people of this coun try are prepared to surrender their right of self-govern rnetitein educational matters into the hands of a set of ichoolinasters and doctrinaires. (Prom, the Times of this clay.) The condition of Journalism and the Legislature in Fraece enhances the iiiterest of the two great orations recently delivered in the " Academie." The nature and the genius of the place, the character and previous ca• reer of those who are admitted to a seat within its walls, attach to the speeches of the members and their sponsors an importance which is augmented by the silence of the Tiiliune and the docility of the press. Forbidden, not only by considerations of policy, but by the nature of their own peculiar topics, to touch professedly upon the topics of current politics, the Academicians are alnio:-.1 unconsciously led into allusions which are not least significant when they are at least premeditated. And no occasion could be rendered so suggestive either of contemporaneous allusion or retrospective analogy at the election of a senator of Louis Peilippe to replace, in the reign of Louis Napoleon, the distinguished anthor of the " History of the Fronde." It was natural that the Duc de Broglie should identify his views with these of his predecessor, and should re cognise in that tangled medley of purposeless conflict and resultless faction of which he was the historian all the laws of the historic epic—a beginning, a middle, and an end. It is consonant with the temper and the character of the literary statesman. Moderato in his views, doc trinaire in his politics, and not less patriotic than phi lanthropic in his affections, the Duc de Broglie would be equally reluctant to impute to any generation of his countrymen an unaccountable passion for an unmeaning strife, or to condemn as wholly reckless a struggle which at first probably was, and which he must ever regard to have been, an honest fight for ratienal liberty. And, doubtless, this patriotic criticism must have received un conscious but frequent confirmation from the parallel of motives and passions which "the Fronde" presents to some other passages in French history. Indeed, to a philosophic mind it would be difficult to probe the annals of the former movement, to anatomise the conduct of Cond6, Mazarin, and De Retz, to trace the progress of theii varied success, without falling almost involuntarily into an examination of the causes, the motives, and the conduct of that more notable revolution wherein figured Roland, Miraheau, Robespierre, St. Just, and one greater than all these; and the judgment which bad once been pronounced upon the moral phenomena of the former might in spirit, if not literally, be trasferred into a review of the second,—a prospect which would certainly deter so hopeful and patriotic a critic as M. de Broglie from pronouncing unfavourably on the first great organ ised popular uprising in the annals of modern France. The truth is—and it is a truth which must have been present to the candid minds not only of M. Nisard and the Due de Broglie, but also of many among their audience--the national characteristics which stirred the tempest of the Fronde roused also the greater tempest of the revolutions of 1789 and 1848, and the same characteristics intervened at either period to divert the direction of the political hurl beano in a cycle which their nuthorsfailed to foresee. There may have been great intermediate changes be tween the two periods. The masses may have become more numerous, More combined, more educated, but the moral impulse and moral peculiarities of the one move ment were the same as those of the others. That hitter, sneering, and remorseless logic, which ultimately be trayed the Constitutionalists of 1790 to a fate which no logic could foresee, had betrayed their predecessors in the Parliament of Paris into an alliance which no con sistency could justify aed no success consolidate. When M. de Broglie recognises with M. de St. Aulaire that golden age of the Fronde in which "on voyait pour la premiere fois lee principes de la monarcbie Francaise, lee maximes de notre droit public invoqu6e avec sagesee et resolution dans la Grande Chambre par les vieux magistrate, avec emportement dans lee enquetes par lee jeunes conseillers," &c., be exhibits the sanguine tem peratnent which, in another age, blinded the Girondistg to their coming ruin. When again, he dwells upon that worse period—"Cette epoque des ambitions effr4n6es et des prkentions sans limites que deehaine la guerre chile; 'vette epoque de rivalites acharnees d'lntrigues galantes IEAL9 .RKABLE CASE 01? FRAUD. Application was made a few weeks ago to Sir R. W. Carden, as a magistrate of the county of Surrey, by a clergyman, for advice and assistance in a case of exten sive fraud, and we have the satisfaction to state that the measures adopted by the energetic magistrate were com pletely successful. The information upon which the rev. gentleman grounded his application was as follows : —The brother of the gentleman who waited upon Sir R. W. Carden was, it appears, the sole surviving trustee in a trust account, and it was discovered that be Lad sold out from time to time the whole of the stock, am )r nting to about 9,000/. Consols. As soon as suspi cion was entertained that so important a trust was vio lated an investigation was commenced, and it was ascer tained that at as late a period as October last be had drawn from the Bank, in his character as trustee, the large sum of 5,800/., having acted at that time as Feilicitor and co-trustee of the property bequeathed by the father to the children. The depredstians had been commenced in the year 1850 by a small sale of ' 2001. Consols, and from the middle of that year till last October the person in whom such implicit re lianee had been paced had sold out gra lually upwards of 3,0001: of the stock, and appropriated it to his ov.n pur poseß. After s , me difficulty, bank-notes paid for the stock sold out to the amount of 5,600/. were traced from the Bank of Etigland through a variety of channels to the house of an agent at Boulogne, who, by the direc tion af his principal, invested the whole of the money in the French Rentes, payable to bearer. The moment the communication was made to Sir R. W. Carden an •able officer, who had been some years e'.l 1c to the English Consul at Ostend, and was well acquainted with the lan guage as well as the police regulations and mode of a• Bl mercial business of the French capital, was despatched to the continent, after having received particular directions and recommeldations from the magistrate. Tuffs officer on the day af er his arrival at Boulogne conferred with the police authorities on the subject, but could obtain no intelligence of the person he sought. Nobody could tell him whether any person of the name or description given was at the time or had been at all in the town. Armed with more full instryctions from Sir R. W. Car den' the officer pursued the inquiry in the most earnest I manner, and at last succeeded, not only in finding the address, but in becoming the constant and confidential companion of the person he sought, and thus became acquainted with all the transactions in which the man was concerned. The trustee remained at Boulogne for three days, and then proceeded to Paris for the purpose of selling the French stock in which he had invested the property of which he had deprived his relatives, calcu lating upon a considerable profit in consequence of the improved state of the market. Two days after the arrival of the officer at Paris the delinquent was arrested by the police at the instance of the I English constable, who had watched his steps, and there was quite information enough found in his pockets to justify his detention. An attempt was made by a solicitor, who was employed by the accused, to obtain his immediate discharge, upon the ground that "no offence had been committed ;" but those to whom the appeal was made refused to take any notice of it, and the officer employed by Sir R. W. Carden, after having astonished the delinquent by stating the exact natnrecf his calling and mission, had the gratification of receiv ing from his hands the whole of the securities, amount - ing to about 6,000/., of which the family badb e en plundered since the month of October. The sum trans ferred from the English to the French funds h ad been increased greatly by the political events which had recently taken place, so that the very act of robbery the energy of the magis trate, advantageous through the intelligence and activity of the officer, and the admirable manner in which the French polic e ac t e d throughout the whole business. There had been three trustees originally, in whose names the property of the family bad been invested ; but two having died—the one before, and the other in the year 1850—the surviving trustee had the sole control over the property, which in a few days would have been swept away far ever, as the plunderer had made preparations to leave Europe. The legatees would have had to encounter greater difficulties in obtaining satisfaction if the depredator had been de tected at home, for before anything could be done to wards the recovery of the money an application to the Lord Chancellor for an order would have been indispen sable, and the tardy operations in equity would have postponed anything like vigorous action for several weeks. In France the offence, which is here delicately called "breach of trust," is designated fiat robbery, and the delinquent i- not only heavily fined, but sentenced to undergo two years' imprisonment. THE BOOMERANG.—LIVERPOOL, April 11.—The fol. lowir, appears on the slate in the underwriters'-rooms : —" Further particulars have been received relative to the loss of the Boomerang. It appears that her masts were cut away, but it was of no u=e as she was settling down. All the crew were taken off by the Helen, except the mate and carpenter, and four men (belonging to the Helen) were drowned in endeavouring to save theme ' The Helen remained near the place two hours." "The inquest was opened on Wednesday. One witness only was examined—a girl, who was working in the field when the assassination occurred, and was actually in conversation with Mrs. Kelly when the murderers approached her. The witness said there were about 12 girls and two men in the fild picking stones. Mrs. Kelly came into the field about 4 o'clock, p m., with Mr. Campion and Mr. George Strevens, her nephew. Mr. Gimpion left the field by directions of Mrs. Kelly to settle some accounts, as he was to go Dublin next day. Mr. Strevens went to where the men were picking stones, and Mrs. Kelly came over to witness to ask if her mother had made up the clothes she had given her, as she (witness) was to be sent to a situation in Dublin, procured for her by Mrs. Kelly ? Just as they were talking, about five yards from the ditch, two men came into the field through the gate, 150 yards from where they stood. They had women's clothes on and black cloths over their faces with openinrs, through which she (a itness) coo d see one eye. When Mrs. Kelly saw them she appeared to be much alarmed and caught holi of the witness, who said 'Don't be afraid, Mrs. Kelly ; they are only coming to frighten the children' (meaning the girls, who were picking stones). Mrs. Kelly then ran over towards the ditch, and fell ; the murderers f :Bowed, and, while she was lying on the ground, one man stooped, and fired at Mrs. Kelly's head, what witness thought was a pistol, and then stepped aside, upon which his companion did the same. Mr. G. Strevens, who was about 10 yards off, began to shout. The two assassins then went over towards him. Reran away, and did not stop till he arrived at the house, where he informed Mr. Campion that Mrs. Kel'y had been shot dead. The two assassins went back through the gate by which they came in, and no one saw them'aiterwards., The inquest was then .silj - ,urieed until nextTuesday,- in order that Dr. Mathews might make a post mortent examination. The jury then proceeded to where the murder took place, which is fully half a mile from the house, on the top of a hill, from which there is a view for a mile all round. One of the gentlemen sent for a spade and dug underneath where the brains of the unfortunate 'aly lay, and there found a ballet eight inches deep in the ground. " The body of Mrs. Kelly was removed to Dublin by the first up-train this (Thursday) morning, in charge of Mr. Campion, but her nephew (Mr. Strevens) remains here in lodgings, in charge of two policemen. " I need not say that the dreadful event has created the most intense sensation in this neighbourhood." COURSE OF EXCHANGE.— YESTERDIY. Am5terdam............ 12 j Gibraltar ...... ••.•• • ..

[Anvzitexsemes-r.]---Revalent Arabica Food supersedes the abuses and miseries of the reateria medica, brings new life and cheerfulness to the invalid, and renders the process of cure both pleasant and certain. Fifty thousand well-known and recorded cases establish this ; and the number of wit nesses to its effects is daily increasing. Amongst the female sex its salutary effects aro as marked as amongst males. Miss Elizabeth Jacobs Writes, from Nazing Vicarage, near Wal tham Cross, Herts :—" I have been suffering at least 7 years, in the prime of life, from indigestion, nervousness, headaches, i n flammation, and gatherings, low spirits, general deblity, sleeplessness, and delusions; and, during all that time, I have required, every year, so much medical attendance that I have been almost ruined by doctors' bills," She then presents her heartfelt gratitude to Messrs. du Barry for the complete Cure effected by Dn Barry's Food. Mrs. Mary Godsmark, of Huuton, writes :—" Your excellent Food has released me from an incredible accumulation of suffering, for which, during the last 8 years, all kinds of medicines had been tried in vain. My feelings and sufferings previous to taking your Food were the following:—indigestion, nervousness, biliousness, affec tion of the liver and kidneys, costiveness, palpitation of the heart, noises in the ear, pains in almost all the body, low spirits, general debility, loss of memory, wretchedness, thoughts of self-destruction." James Porter, Esq., of Perth, returns thanks on behalf of a lady, who had been for 13 years afflicted with indigestion, prostration of strength, &c., accom panied by cough. Mr. Thos. Walker, King's-road, Chelsea, expresses his " gratitude and pleasure" for the good dose by the Food to his wife, who, previous to taking it, "bad been suffering for a long time from dyspepsia, producing alternately diarrhoea, and the apposite state' of the system ;and although medicine gave temporary relief, it proved of no lasting bene fit." Mary Gilbert, of Trevagler, near Penzance, says : " Eighteen years' nervous debility, violent palpitation of the heart, throbbing of the templ es , v iolent pains in the left s id e and back, shortness of breath, cough, numbness of th e extre mities, cramps, spasms, flatulency, retching, and such gene ral weakness that I was constantly fearful of falling, wh en on my legs; all these sympts= have been re move d b y D u Barry's excellent Food." It is impossible to make room in a newspaper paragraph for the varied but concurrent language of thankfulness in which the writers describe their escape from their sufferings. It is a proud a n d env i a bl e pos i t i on f or Messrs. Du Barry, to feel themselves thus the acknowledged benefactors of multitudes of their fellow-beings.— In canisters, 51bs. 11s.; 121b5., 225.
