In consequence Of the pU'Ji, cation of an
incorrect report of war ha' ing been drclar-
ed between Russia and Tarkcy, a few days

the news, bought large quantity Of opium,
amounting to 10000, calculating that
should thc war continue, this article would
command fine market in Europe The
report being uDiounHcd, the opium remains
drug ON the hantIs ofthc purchaser, who

doubt will be good lesson against mlch
rash enterprise :.

aged about % yeas, IN which the laryH Of
81 eai. number ei insects Of the hectic and
ilyaG kind, were discharged alive from The

Tie kind, though discharged gvwards of

yolmg woman labored, at intervals, during
a long fine past, under vomiting of blood,
and tue most violent commissions, which
have been considerably alleyiatcd by the
discharge Of the insects. The probable
suppositon is that the ova, or eggs, were
taken IN by the mouth, aad deposited and
Matched in The stomach. The case we un-
derstand Will shortly appear in a detailed
form, in a distinguished medical publica-
