I. Whatever success the faculty meet with in bodily infirmities,
they are generally bathed by disorders of the mind."—Thornton.
The successful 'refitment of a few prevalent complaint
is the best proof of superiority.
Dr. K. J. and Co., after a practice of 22 years in every
part of Europe. invite the youth who has wooed debility
by that strangely fascinating sin, that he may be taught to
renovate his abused constitution, and regain his lost place
in the scale of creation. The disappointed married femalf
will also receive that relief she may reasonably appreciate.
Persons Ilbouring under sores of whatever description, or
scorbutic eruptions proceeding Irons the impure state of
the blood, will be spe, di;y rel eyed and permanently cured.
And finally, the man of pleasure, suffering with or from
Lure Venerea, whether from diffidence or the malpractice
of the Quack, we promise a speedy restoration to perfect
health, as our practice for upwards of twenty years has
been confined to the above and the like complaints ; and,
as we give ad•ice from the man of rank to the meanest
subj-ct, our motto is secrecy. To he consulted personally,
or by letttr, post paid, enclosing a bank note fur advice and

GAME.—We are happy in being able to state
that there is every prospect of abundant sport on the
moors in Inverness and Koss.shires this season. The
young birds are well grown and the coveys are large and
numerous. The weather was favourable while the birds
were hatching; and the bite rains have, so far as we can
learn, done no injury either on the high or low grounds.
In some of tie Perthshire moms the rains hive been pro-
ductive of much loss, and on the Breadalbane estate we
understand the grouse are very scarce. The number of
strangers, sportsmen. will be unusually large this year, as
the applications for shooting wounds and premises have
been greater than was ever before experienced in tbis
quarter.—lneerness Carrier.

BISHOPS AND CAULIFLOWERS.—Doctor
PARIS somewhere observes that the originals of the
rahbage and cauliflower are not to be reeoenised in uncul
treated nature. A bishop of the present age hiss no mire
likeness to a bishop of the New Testament arid the priaii-
the church, than a cauliflower or a red eabb .ge is like any
spontaneous producti,m of the field. It has taken 1.800
years to bring bishops to their present figure. The hurti-
culturis's con show nothing like it in the aggruid zement
of gooseberries. The cultivation is simple enough too—
hut housing and the manure of mammon.—Examiner.

VICTIM/CO:EA MORAL MILLENNIUM.-By
the purely mental interchange of these affections, there is
generated a prodigious amount of happiness ; and that,
altogether independent of the gratifications which are
yielded by the mverial gifts of liberality on the one hand,
or by the material services of gratitude on the other. In-
somuch, that we have only to imagine a reign of perfect
virtue ; arid then, in spite of the physical ills which es-
sentially and inevitably attach to our condition, we should
feel ca, if we had approximated very nearly to a state of
perfect. enjoyment among men—or, in other words, that
the bliss of Paradise would be ahno‘t fully realized upon
earth, were brit the mor.l graces and chanties of Paradise
fir mly established there, and in full operation. Let there
be honest and universal good-will in every bosom, and
this be responded to from all who are the objects of it by
an honest gratitude back again ; let kindne-a, in all it,
varirou, effects and manifestations, pass and repass from
one heat and countenance to another; let there he a
universal courteousneas in our streets, and let fidelity and
affection, and all the dotreatic virtues, take up their secure
and lasting abode in every firefly ; let the succour. and
mpathy of a willing neighbourhood be ever in readiness
to no-et arid to overpass alt the want and wretchedness to
which humanity is li,ble; let truth, and honour, and in-
violable iriendahip between man and man banish all
treachery and injustice from the world ; in the walks of
rnerchandi,e, let an un.ading integrity on the one side,
have the homage done to it of unbounded connilence on the
other, insottrueh the each man reposing with conscious
safety on the uprightness and attachment of hi, fellow, and
withal rejoicing as touch in the prosperity of an acquaint-
ance, as he should in I is own, there wand I come to be no
place for the harassments and the heart-burningsof mutual
suspiciOn or resentment or envy; who does not see, in the
state of a society thus constituted and thus harmonised,
the palpable evidence r.f a nature so framed, that the
happiness of the world and the righteousness of the world
kept puce the one with the othern-aDr. Chalmers'

THREE GENERATIONS OF JOCKEYS.—
There are more EDWARDSES at Newmarket titan there
were CASARS at Rome, and they all ride as it were by
instinct. Jame-, or Tiny Eimaens. as he is called--
par excellence of course—is father of all the jockeys that
bear that name, and also of WILLIAM, formerly a jockey,
who trained for his late MAJESTY, and has a pension and
part of the palace and stables at Newm .rket, as his reward.
JAMES trans for the Earl of JERSEY and is considered
first rite, and particularly so in his preparation for the
Derby course. The cleverest of the jockeys is HARRY
(the one-eyed man, who lived with the late Earl FITZ
WILLIAM), a very elegant hor'eman. GEORGE is like-
wise very good, as are CHARLES and EDWARD, young
ones, not forgetting FREDERICK, little better than a child,
but with tie seat of an old man. W hen his late MAJESTY
saw his own horses mixed with L,,ld JERSEY'S at Ascot,
and the answer to every question of " Who is that ?" was
" Elwards,"—a Bless me," exclaimed the King, " what
lots of j•ickeya that woman breeds!" It happens, how-
ever, that they are the produce of three different marriages,
so the glories come, as GARTER would say, from the
Baron, not the Femme.— Quarterly Review.
AN UNCOMMON WEDDING.—About a fort-
night ago a wedding took place at the Collegiate Church,
Manchester, tinder circumstances which we should sup-
pose are without a parallel in the annals of matrimony.
Some weeks since the wife of the bridegroom declared to
a company of female acquaintances that she would give
any woman Si. who would marry her husband, and take
him off her hands. " Will you?" cried one of the com-
pany; " I'll do it," and without any further ceremony the
bargain was concluded. When the husband was consulted
he expressed himself quite willing to make the transfer
of his " troth" to the adventornus damsel, and on
the 19th ult. they proceeded to the Collegiate Church in
a body, the wife officiating as bridesmaid, and her uncle
as groomsman to the happy pair. At the altar the self-
discarded wife took the ting from her finger, and presented
it to the bridegroom, to pl ice on that of his new bride ; and
when the nuptial ceremony was ended, she duly paid over
to her successor the three pounds which had been agreed
upon as the price of her liberty, presenting the new
mart ied couple also with a cart load of furniture towirds
the formation of a new domestic estabishment ! Of course
the peculiar circumstances of the case were not made
known to the clergyman who performed the ceremony,—
Macclesfield Herald.

NAE PIER.--LORD NAPIER,OI IVIERCHIS•
TON.—This family descends from the ancient Thanes of
Latimox; but took the name of NAPIER from the fol-
lowing event:—One of the ancient E ads of LENNOX hail
three sons; the eldest succeeded him in the Earitloi,i,
the second was named DONALD, and the third GILCHRIST.
The then King of SCOTS being engaged in war, and
having convocated his subjects to battle, the Earl of LEN.
NOX was called on, amongst others, to send such force as he
could collect to the KING's assistance, which he accurd-
inly did, keeping his eldest son at home with him,
but putting his men under the command of his two
younger sons. The battle went hard with the Scots, who
were not only forced to lase ground, but were actually
running away, when DONALD snatched his father's
standard from Vie bearer, charged the enemy with the
Lennox-men, changed the fortune of the day, and obtained
a victory. After the battle, as the custom was, every one
reported his acts, when the KING said, "Ye have all
done valiantly ; but there is one amongst you who had
NAE PIER'" (that is. no equ ; and, calling DONALD
to him, commanded him to change his name from LENarox
to NAPIER, and bestowed upon him the land+ of Gostord
and lands in life, as a reward for his service. Captain
NAPIER descends nirectly from DONALD.

VALUE OF WEASELS.—Some time ago a
weasel was observed very frequently to visit the ptetnises
of Mr. ALLAN, of Redheugh, parish of Kilburnie, in
search of rase, and in the course of a few we. ks runty of
that hated tribe were destroyed by the heroic weasel, which
had become a great favourite with every one of Mr. AL-
LAN'S family. A few weeks ago, Mr. ALLAN had a tailor
at work in the house, who was brandishing his needle
with much dexterity when a I rge rat came running in and
leapt up on the tible, before the astonished knight of the
thimble, who started back with horror, and bestowed a
few weighty epithets on the impudent rat. It was soon
discovere.d that the p tor rat was flying for his life, as the
weasel folowed him into the very centre of the house, and
observing him trembling on the table, the pursuer stood
erect on his hind legs, as if about to spring up and seize
him—when, alas ! a cat, which happened to be in the
kitchen, unexpectedly seised the weasel and killed him on
the spot. Mr. Rat, no doubt, thought this a favourable
opportunity for making his escape ; in en instant, he
sprung front before the dumfoundered tailor, and mule off,
but was met at the door by the house dog, which instantly
killed him.—Scots Times.

ANECDOTE OF GOETHE,—It happened that
the reigning Duke, who was returning from the chase
took his way through Thfurth. He came in after the
reading was begun. The evenings were chill, and thee
was a fire in the room. The Duke, who came out of the
fresh air, found it too hot, and opened one of the windows.
S cue ladies, whose thinly covered shoulders were ill
defended against the cold, sat close to the window.
GOETHE, observing that they suffered from the draught,
instantly rose, approached the window with cautious tip-
toe steps, that he might not disturb the reader, and softly
shut it. The Duke, meantime, had passed to the
ether side of the room, and his face was suddenly
over-clouded when he turned round and saw how contu-
maciously his commands had been resisted. " Who has
shut the window that I opened ?" said he to the servants
of the house; not one of whom dared to cast so couch as
a glance at the culprit. GOETHE, however, with that
arch, reverential gravity which is peculiar to him, and at
the bottom of which often lies the most tefitied irony,
stepped forward before his master and friend, and said,
" Your Highness has the power of l.fe and death over all
your subjects. Upon ate let judgment and sentence be
pronounced." The Duke laughed, and the window was
opened no more.—Characteristics of Goethe.

CURIOUS CLoCIE.—The most curious thing
in the cathedral of Lubeck, is a clock of singular con-
struction and very high antiquity. It is calculated to
answer astronomical purposes, representing the places
of the sun and moon in the ecliptic, the moon's age,
a perpetual almanack, and many other contrivances.
The clock, as an inscription, sets forth, was placed in
the church upon Candiemas day in 1405. Over the face
of it appears an image of our Saviour, and on either side of
the image are folding isoors, so constructed as to fly open
every day when the clock strikes twelve. At this hour, a
set of figures representing the twe,ve apostles, come out
from the doer on the left hind of the image, end pass by
in review before it, each figure making its obeisance by
bowing as it passes that of our SAVIOUR, and afterwards
entering the door on the right hand. Worn the proces-
sion terminates, the doors close.— Clarke's Travels in
Scandinavia.
