and healthy tone ; whatever is calculated to produce in a
considerable degree, all or any of these effects, must be,
under certain modifications and restrictions, equally adapted
to every species of decay. Hence, though the Cordial Balm
of Syriacum makes a direct attack upon the many-headed
hydra in one quarter only, it will be found to apply indirectly
or collaterally, to almost every other; in short, the debility
of nature can be completely reinstated by this excellent me-
dicine, for its reanimating powers exceed almost credibility ;
its fine, rich, stimulating balsamic stomachic qualities—its
purification of the blood—and, above all, the complete invi-
gorator of the nervous system, whereby the whole faculties
become restored to their proper power and functions, and
the fallen fabric of life is raised up to beauty, consistency,
and duration, upon the ruins of an emaciated and premature
decay, to sound and pristine health.
As nothing can be better adapted to help and nourish the
constitution, so there is nothing more generally acknow-
ledged to be peculiarly
efficacious in all inward wastings,
loss of appetite, indigestion, depression of spirits, trembling
or shaking of the hands or limbs, obstinate cough, shortness
of breath, or consumptive habits. It possesses wonderful
efficacy in all cases of syphilis, fits, head-ache, weakness,
heaviness and to
wanderiwnesss of the

mind, vapours, and melancholy ;
thougng
and all kinds of hysteric complaints are gradually removed
by its use.
Constitutions relaxed, weak, or decayed, in men or women,
habits are soon relieved, and speedily
are under its immediate influence. Old coughs, asthmas,

long, meet the happiest
change ; the chill, watery fluid will

UNITARIAN DOCTRINE.—Last Sunday evening the Rev
G. W. Philps openly renounced Unitarianism from his pul-
pit in Blackwater-street, Rochdale, and we understand that
several members of different families attending there have
also declared their conviction that their religious views
hitherto have been erroneous.—Leeds Mercur.y.

On Saturday week, an old man at Chillington, Sussex, 82
years of age, hanged himself in a hovel near his house,
having previously declared to his wife that " he could not be
saved ; his sins would not be forgiven him," and on Mon-
day evening, an old woman of 70, in St. Luke's, cut her
throat in despondency, brought on by distressed circum-
stances.
