HYPOCIIONDRIA.

Of the dimmers, chess& or wile, there is nose to be
compares to this. Envy ems will t 4 coarse insist that his
own peculiar malady is the most heinous, sod he the moot
exemplary of sufferers. I have heard mainiabred as worse—.
the head.nets, 'railheads, fever, dislocation, rheumatism,
asthma—l have had them all, sad deny the assertions.
Taken with its huge train of evils, which besiege and van-
quish the body and mind at puce, there is 'albite (that I
know of) which ■t all approaches the terrible Palma Hypo-
rhondriaca." It is the curse of the poet—of the wit ; it i■
the great tea °pots intelleet—the bar to prosperity and re-
nown. Other ills come and pass sway; they have their pa.
microns, their minutes or boars of tyranny, and vanish like
shadows or empty dreams. But this is with you for ere,.
The phantom of fear is always shunt you. You feel it in
the day at every turn ; and at night you see it, illuminated
and made terrible, in a million fantastic 'hopes. Like the
lag of the merchant Absidalt, it mimes fur ever with the
night, in use shape or another—devil, or giant, or hideous
chimera; ur it is an earthquake, or a fiery fisisl—ur a per-
pent twining you in its loathsome folds—or it site is your
heart Ike au Incubus, and presses you down to min.—

Letters from Barbsdoes, of the middle of July,

So long at period has elapsed since any informa-
tion was received from our enterittiaiug countryman,
Captain PARRY, that considerable anxiety has been
felt respecting the Northern Expedition. It is
therefore with great pleasure we state, that a letter
has been received by a Clergyman from his son, on
hostel one of the vessels of the expedition, by one
of the Davis Straits *hips, stating that the crews
of both the Discovery Ships were in good health
and spirits—they hid plenty of rain, and hid caught
a great number of rein deer. The letter further
acids, that an opening previewed itself, and great
hopes were entertained that they would make their
passage through. They had made a number of
pies of the rein deer they had caught, which would
laid them for some time.
