In the wildness of a glade,
Where the playful zephyrs reign,
One bright lovely eve I stray'd
O'er the dewy-spangled plain.
Deep the twilight sunk in night ;
Dreary darkness 'gan to lour ;
But I saw a distant light,
Beauteous as the noon-day's power.
See ! it approaches—nearer still
See ! the radiant object come ;
Anxious doubts my bosom thrill,—
Terror binds my soul in gloom.
See—myself—my form—is there •
Every feature's bright display'd;
Glorious vision ! why appear ?
Why in splendour thus array'd?
Nearer yet !—a gentle tongue
Calls my fluttering senses back ;
Then I found the vision sprung
Eut from Warren's Jetty Black ;
'Twas a stranger, whose bright shoes •
Warren's Blacking shone so bright,
Beam'd those superhuman glows,
Through the gloomy tint of night.
This Easy shining and Brilliant Blacking, prepared by ROBERT
WARREN, 30, Strand, London; and Sold in every Town in the
Kingdom.
Liquid, in Bottles, and Paste Blacking, in Pots, at 6d.-12d.,

BRITISH COLLEGE OF HEALTH,
HAMILTON-PLACE,
NEW ROAD, KING'S CROSS, LONDON.
EXTRACT FROM NORTHCROFT'S PARLIAMENTARY
CHRONICLE.

Mr. MORISON, the HYqE IST, and the BRITISH PUBLIC.

"We think it a duty which we owe to the public, to ex-
press our strongest disapprobation of the unmerited prejudice
which has been attempted against this reformer of medical
abuses. For a considerable period the fame of Mr. Morison has
been commensurate with the utility of his medicine; and not only
Europe, but America, has paid a just tribute to his skill and in-
tegrity. It had long been known that the medical profession was
deficient either in skill or honesty to afford relief, and the apo-
thecaries of England were almost becoming as nial-odorous as the
Mhysicians of France under the pen of Molire. At length Mr.
orison gave to the world a practical proof, that a Universal Me-
dicine, composed of Vegetable ingredients, could effect cures when
the most talented professors of the healing art had failed of success.
Of course, he was assailed, like every other reformer in science,
politics, or religion. A Galileo or a Hervey, a Russell or a Lu-
ther, could not have been attacked with more impetuosity and ran-
cour. But Mr. Morison has outlived the abuse, and proved how
forcible are facts and good intentions against wedded prejudices and
vested interests.

'• The foregoingremarks are called forth by the proceedings in the
King v. Webb, which have been trumpeted forth to the public
with an intention to prejndice the Hygeists.
" In the case alluded to, a young man, who was ill of a malignant
small-pox, took some of Mr. Morrison's pills. ,His friends preju-
,:f-es became excited. They applied to a medical man, who
adopted it mode of treatment altogether different. The result was
—the death of the patient. An inquest is taken, the stomach is
found inflamed, and a medical man gives his opinion that death
was caused by inflammation, and that the Pills of Mr. Morrison are
composed of a deleterious drug—to wit, Gamboge, and the vender
of the Pills, Mr. Webb, is convicted of manslaughter.
It is not our province to attack juries, judges, or apothecaries ;
but we cannot help observing, that a more strange verdict we never
heard of. What inference could be drawn unfavourable to Mr.
Morison's Pills, when it is evident the patient had taken other
medicine, at variauee with his former treatment? We forbear
going into further partieulara, lest we should be accused of lending
ourselves to support one individual at the expense of another. Our
remarks apply to the principle of the decision and its unfair deduc-
tion, as also the severity of the sentence. No human ingenuity
could fix exclusive blame on one person, when two had been co-
operative • and where uncertainty
.prevailed, surely the defendant
was entitled to a len'ent consideration. ' But then, Mr. Morison's
medicine is deleterious,' says the country surgeon, because it is
composed of gamboge.' This is monstrously absurd. Gamboge
is known to be one of the best aperient medicines in use, and is to
be found in some of the most valuable prescriptions. Besides it is
not the ingredient itself, but its proportions and admixture with
other medicines, that establish its value. ' Four or five ingredients
may be applied effectually to cure all diseases,' said an eminent
physician, ' but the question is, how are they to be concocted?'
" A pamphlet has been put forth, containing the proceedings of a
trial in the Court of Common Pleas, in July last (Purcell v.
Stephens and Moat), for a libel ; and much has been attempted to
the injury of the cause of Mr. Morison by it. Surely nothing can
be more blogrgd than such an attempt : for the facts, if they apply
at all, shew the efilaacy of Mr. Morison's medicine. The case was
this :—A boy, having bees, held over some offensive matter, be=
came ill in consequence. A respectable country practitioner was
called in ; but before a final cure was made, a lady of the name of
'Torokins recommended Morison's Pills. These were administered,
and the patient recovered, Now, this we call a good answer to the
case of King v. Webb ;* but ti statement, not strictly accu-
rate, appeared in the Christian Advocate' newspaper, regarding
the latter case, and a verdict of 500/. was, in consequence, obtained,
under an action for a libel brought by the country apothecary against
Messrs. Morison and Moat, Certain it was, however, that the boy
had taken the Pills of Mr. Monogr!, end was ultimately cured by
them, as Miss Tomkins believed.
" Now, the Americans have shewn a much better regard to
justice, notwithstanding all the prejudices imputed to them. In the
report of a trial in the interior state of New York, wherein James
plaintiffs, al* Mpses Jacques and
Morison and Thomas Moat were
Jonathan B. Marsh, were defendants, how did tht CeliTt dispose
of the case? The charge was for counterfeiting and selling a spu-
rious preparation, purporting to be the genuine Hvgeian Vegetable
Universal Medicine of the British College of Health, London. The
Jury, after several howl,' deliberation, returned a verdict for Messrs.
