THE CORDIAL BALM of SYRIACUM
is intended to relieve those persons who, by an immo-
derate indulgence of their passions, have ruined their constitu-
tion, or, on their way to the consummation of that deplorable
state, are affected with any of those previous symptoms that
betray its approach, as the various affections of the nervous sys-
tem, obstinate gleets, involuntary emissions, excesses, irregu-
arity, obstructions of certain evacuations, weakness, total im-
potencs, barrenness, &c. But the relief administered is not
coefined to these alone. The valetudinarian by birth, who has
received hem his parent: the inheritance of a diseased and no-
prolific frame; the delicate female, whom an immured and in-
active life, together with the immoderate use of tea and other
weak and watery aliments, has, without any fault of hers,
brought on all the calamitous symptoms of a consumptive
habit, and is, without timely assistance, sinking into sin un-
timely grave. Constitutions relaxed, weak, or decayed, in men
or women, are under the immediate influence of this restorative.
Ohl coughs, a.nhmas, and consumptive habits are soon relieved,
and speedily cured. Poverty of blood and emaciated limbs will,
ere long, meet the happiest change . the chill, watery fluid will
eecome rich and balsamic, and the limbs be covered with flesh,
firm and beautiful, It is remarkable for its efficacy in all dis-
orders of the digestive organs, and is especially recommended
to those who, from the irregularities of youthful age, habits of
studious application, or a life of pleasure, have fallen into a
d:spondent state of mind, and that distressing train of symp-
toms commonly denominated the nervous. In such persons the
mental are not less enfeebled than the corporeal powers, and to
them a remedy that acts with efficacy, without interfering with
domestic habits, is rsuliarly desirable.

The Work which is new presented to the public is the result
of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec-
tnu.s, which for some unaccountable reason have Leer either
altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in.
difference, by the 6 dinary practitioner. To enter into the
details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to
mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical,
which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habits,
would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We leave
no hesitation, however, in saving that there is no member of
society, by whom the book will not be foutul interesting, whe-
ther we consider such person to hold the relation el a PA-
RENT, a PRECEPTOR, era CLERGYMAN.
Messrs. CURTIS and CO: are to be consulted daily at their

quested to be as minnte as possible in the detail of their cases,

neral habits of living, and occupation in life of the party ; the
communication must be accompanied by the " tsual Consulta-
tion Fee of U.," without which no notice whatever can be
taken of their application ; and in all cases, the most inviolable
secrecy may be relied on.

THE DUhE OF WELLINGTON.

(From our Evening Edition of Saturday.)
The fullowirg arc some further particulars of the sud-
den indisposition of the Illuitrious Duke, in addition to
those which we gave last evening in the sc cond edition of
7'he Sun:--
iiis
~ytace was, as usual, occupying his seat prior to
public business being commenced. Notwithstanding the
intense cold of the day he went there in an open carriage,
which lie has been accustomed to use for some time past
While Lord Brougham was ad4ressing the House, abut
half-past five o'clock, the Duke suddenly left his seat, Ps if
with the intention of quitting the House by the door near the
throne. This circumstance, of course, did not attract any pe-
culiar attention ; but he had not proceeded far before his
Grace dropped his hat,which he Licked before him, appearing
desirous to get it out of the way, so that he ►night pick it
up at the further end of the House, and thus escape oh.
servation. As the bat did not go far, he kicked it a second
time, when it rolled near Lord Redesdale, who was
sitting on the seats occupied by the Judges when they
attend the Parliament. His Lords Lip rose to assist the
Duke in getting the hat, but as his Grace was by this
time staggering, and not stooping for the hat, Lord
Brougham called across the table to support him, lest he
should fall, and added with considerable feeling,
" Send for a surgeon, send for a surgeon."
In a moment the Duke was surraunded by se-
veral Noble Lords, and lett the House supported plod-
pally by the Earl bf Aberdeen. The Duke was able to
walk, but with difficulty, and it was found that be was
self...ring from an attack of swimming in the head,
but his Grace maintained complete self-possession,
and convened with those around. He was offered the
carriage nearest the House; but he said his own was in
attendance, and he should prefer that. It was not,
however, immediately forthcoming, and ho ultimately
proceeded in Lord Brougham's close-bodied carriage
towards his own residence, attended by the Earl of
Aberdeen, &c. Even when in the carriage, the extraor-
dinary action of the head continued; and it was imagined
by those acquainted with the Duke's mode of life, that the
attack resulted from his remarkable abstemiousness in re-
gard to food, and which too frequently characterises his
mode of living. It is needless to state that his ill-
Pass created great agitation. Lord Ellenborough drove
off to obtain medical aid ; and, immediately after the
Duke's arrival at Apsley House. Dr. Hume and Dr.
Chambers were in attendance. The inquiries at Apsley
House were most numerous. Her Majesty, Prince Albert,
the Duke of Cambridge, and the Duchess of Gloucester,
all sent messengers to make inquiry after the Noble Duke's
health. He had been out in the course of the day, and
made several visits, apparently in his usual health.

your most obedient hurr.ble servant—WELLINGTON.—
, R. H. Jeultiason, Esq."— Litentisk Alercury.

Sir—ln forwarding to you, according to your re-
quest, for the information of the Governors of bethlern
Hospital, the report of the medical gentlemen ap-
pointed by me to inquire into the condition of the luna-
tics in the criminal wing of that hospital, I think it
right to accompany that document with a few observa-
tions which have occurred to me. on a very attentive
perusal of all the evidence taken in the course of the
inquiry.
It must no doubt bo satisfactory to the Governors
that the two physicians charged with this inquiry, who
have had so much experience, should express them-
selves in terms of so decided approbation of the greater
part of the general arrangements of the establishment.
It does not appear, from the examination of Mr.
Da-by Shelley by the physicians, that ke had felt the
change of room at all as a hardship, having merely
complained to them of necessary restraint, of quite a
different description.
As, however, this investigation originated in a letter
from the Governors to me, complaining in strong lan-
guage of a statement made by Mr. Sergeant Adams, I
cannot quit this part of the subject without stating can-
didly my impression, that if Mr. Sergeant Adaa.s was
led into error (as it now appears that he was), this wa
en'irely owing to the conduct of one of the servants of
the establishment ; and that it was most natural that he
should leave the hospital on that day with the impres-
sion that a state of things existed which demanded in-
quiry, and, if proved, correction.
It is impossible, I think, to read the evidence of
Joseph Fellows, and believe it to be founded upon an
accurate recollection of what actually passed between
him and Mr. Sergeant Adams. It seems rather as if,
having no very distinct impression on the subject, he
had adapted it to what he afterwards thought he ought
to have said. He states, for instance, that in " conclu-
sion,' and "as a second cause of confinement," he had
mentioned " his attempt to strike one of the ollicers."
Can any one doubt that Mr. Sergeant Adams' recollec-
tion is correct, and that he then named the officer
threatened? How, otherwise, should Mr. Sergeant
Adams have known who it was? The same keeper's
action in applying his key would have naturally led to
the conclusion that the door was locked ; and the fair
inference from his direct, though somewhat ambiguous,
answer to the Sergeant's question would be, that the
patient had been in that department or cell for the time
he stated.

The Governors will rejoice that the result cf :hit in-
quiry must he, to impress upon the servants a more
universal knowledge of the very proper distinction taken
by the medical men, confirmed by themselves, and, I
believe, acted upon generally by the officers, between
necessary control or restraint, and arbitrary punishment.
I cannot omit this opportunity of impressing upo❑
the Governors the want of sufficient means of em-
ployment which appears to be felt in the criminal wing,
particularly among the female patients, who, by the
matron's account, seem sometimes to have very little
to do. It would be desirable that they should have a
regular supply of work suitable to their sex.
The construction of the apartments in which Shel-
ley was placed seems very objectionable, inasmuch as
it was in utter darkness, or without any protection from
the weather.

WhEe approving much of the new rule of nightly
reports of restraint, I certainly feel sonic surprise that
it should not have been earlier in practice in so well-
es'ii.blished an asylum ; as, from my personal inspection
of many similar institutions in this country and Irc-
laid, I believe it to be in very general use as a most
salutary check upon abuses, to which all authority over
those whose want of reason deprives them of the power
of eppral must be peculiarly subject.
I quite feel, at the same time, that the violent dUs•
position (as shown by their offences) of those confined
in the criminal wing makes it absolutely necessary to
take every precautio❑ for the safety of those in whose
charge they are.
I do not think it necessary in this stage of the busi-
ness to enter into the question between the Governors
and Mr. Sergeant Adams, as to the mode of conducting
the inquiry ; but I should strongly recommend that
that gentleman should be especially invited to attend at
the meeting at which the physicians' report is made.—
I have the honour to be, Sir, your most obedient
bundle servant,
