The friends of the Author have been very
solicitous that he should offer them to the
Public, which has induced him to do it.-He
has concluded TO put them at the low price OF
so cents per box, leach box containing "a

them, and that every Family may be induced
to keep them 10 take, in all cases of Colds,

great utility, and the high estimation in which
they are held, by reason of their salutary er-

FROM THE MONTHLY MAGAZINE,
is THERE A GOD?
.4nswered By an appeal to Morning, Moo
and Night.
Now breathes the ruddy Morn around
His health restoring gales,
And from the chambers of the East.
A food Of light prevails.
Is there God? Yon rising sun
An answer meet supplies
Writes it in flame upon the earth,
Proclaims It round the skies.
The pendant clouds that curtain round
This sublunary ball,
And armament on high reveal
A God that governs all.
The warbling lark, in realms of air,
Has thrill'd her matin lay;
The balmy breeze of morn is fed,
tits the Noon Of day.
Is there God? Hark. from on high
His thunder shakes the poles:
hear his voice in every wind
In every wave that rolls.
] read record of his love,
His wisdom and his power,
inscribed on all created things,
Man, beast, herb, and flower.
The sultry sun has left the skies,
And days delights are flown;
The owlet screams amid the shade,
And Night resumes the throne.
Is there God? With sacred fear
upward turn mine eyes:
There S! each glttering lamp Of light
There is! my soui-replies.
If such convictions to my mind
His works aloud impart;
Q let the wisdom of his Word
lnscribe them on my heart:
That while ponder on his deeds,
And read his truth divine,
Nature may point me to God,
And grace may make him mine.
EVENING STAR.
1cli US, tIOu SAoI1ous star Vi eve:
What sees thine eye?
Wherever human hearts can heave,
Mans misery
Life, but a heightened chain;
Youth, weary, wild, and vain;
Age on bed ofpain,
Longing to die!
Yet there's rest
Where earthly agonies
Awake no signs
In the cold breast.
Tell Us, thou glorious Star ofeYe!
Sees not thine eye
! Some spot, where hearts no longer heave,
In thine own sky?
Where all life's wrongs are DER,
Where Anguish weeps no more,
Where injured spirits soar,
Never to die

hardly have been anticipated from the
confident manner in which the popularity

French ministers have been beaten IN

ticipated. The number IS varIousiy sta
ted; some accounts making 1t $50
theirs "a and others again only 10. The
loss of the measure, however, is certain,
and the consequence was an immaculate
fall in the rentes OF above two per cent.
Various reports were, OF course, IN CIR
culation, and among other things, 1t was
said that change of ministers would
be the consequence OF this defeat. We
believe, however, that the best informed
parties do not calculate fully upon this
result

which may be expected from tue dis
position which Congress his lately

prosecution of such objects Of Internal
Improvement as are national in their
scope and character. Few, probably,
even OF the most observing of our rea-

legislation of Congress. on this object,
at their last Session. The amount d.

for this purpose, was a hundred and
sixty three thousand dollars--a consi'
derable sum for beginning, particu-

surveys in the nature of experiments,

presents that view, beginning with the

involved in it,

THE GREEKS.

The following is an extract OF a letter from an
American gentleman in Smyrna, to his friend
in Philadelphia. 1t is dated April "a. 1924
Il have not failed to view, with
great interest, the eXertlon which is
making in the United States in favor
of the Greeks. The first thing th,t
struck me was, that it appeared got up,
and the next, that we should expose
at least 100000 dollars of amount of
property, to get clare ofperhaps 10000
dollars more, and W hich would reflect
honor upon either our generosity nor
prudence. TIE Greeks will be much
disappointed in the amount. if under IA
million. 1.-THE Turks please, they can
any day, take 900 900 dollars. and then
our government must either abandon the
interest of their citizens, or seek re-
dress from the Turks, and they be.

II do not expo ct either the Turks
or Greeks will take any notice of the
money you send, or the speeches made
on the occasion "In my opiorion, the
Turks are not likely to reduce the
Greeks to their former situation, an.

to see the Greeks an Independent ma

An English paper gives the following
explanation of the fact that intempe-
rance abrdges life. 1t is fanciful e.
nough; but b lief in its truth, and a
correspondent practice, could do no
harm.
IN ingenious author asserts, that the
length of mans life may be estimated
by the number of pulsations he has
strength TO perform; that allowing seven
years for the common age of man, and
sixty pulses in minute for the com
mon measure of pulses in a tempera
person, the number of pulsations in hi
whole life would amount to S,2s7.520,-
600 but if by intemperance he forces
has blood into a more rapid motion, So
as to give seventy five pulse in minute.
the same number of pulses would b.
completed in ffiy-sIx years; conse
quently lis life would be reduced four
teen years.
