in every instance. I consider it the most decided and
(, fhcient remedy ir all cases of tumOur, be the cause
what it may, and l have found nothing 50 good FOX
wounds Of any description. II may be proper to aid
that the cure of q tumour called White Swelling, gwen

date notice, effected by the use of Judkins' Ointment,
and the patient is in fine health-IIis limb affected
by the tumour being restored to 4 perfect state o.
soundness. Also that the leg of an aged man Which

STORY OF A SHARK.

We were very much struck with the following story; put have forgotten where we heard it.J-.4asS Jouraat.
 ''i know a story oi a slarh-a fearful, bloody story--aild one tAat hauhts my memory nlgnt and day-dreamiIig or waking. when 1 was at gampeacny, ] formed a sort of pot friendship with q pearl fisher, who had served under Nina h the expedition to New-1rleans, and could tell oi long burnings and bush fighting and things that 1 had never heard ol before and used to sit in his wlgwam all night, aud swlll rum grog, whlle he went over his campaIgas and hls wanderings. lie was a merry iel- low--and knew how to Keep tue joke fresh: and l liked his grog, and was compelled to like his company, for the yellow fever had broke out iii our ship. and was thrown upon my shifts tlli she came oil her quarantine, so that i was co tented to sing my hammock in the pearl-diyer's nut as long as he would allow me. One night 1 was drunk perhaps he had made me so for partie- ular ends-but if he did, he was pun isbed for it. 1t was very dark and squally, and we were sitting alone in the hut over the sleepy light of man. grove fire. After looking at me for some time with 3 serious and steadfast eye, Jose said, Anderson, will put my life in your hands; 1 have need of a friend to advise with, and l think you will not betray me. You may have heard, for rumor is loud-lipped, that the Cathedral of Nuestra Sonora was plun- dered about two years ago, and that two black men, who were implicated in the saerilege, suffered publicly on the wheel. There was another man who eyaded detection. They died like men of honor, with the secret in their hearts and yet he lives unknown and unsus- pected. I om hbot man! Hush. The gold and silver vessels tempted my eye -and never ixneH at the altar without wishing to tear them down. The devil assisted me, and l did it. Madre de Dios. Such commotion as 1t made in the town; the people seemed to have made VOW to talk of nothing else, and the Padres yelled as if it was dooms- day. The poor blacks yelled loo, but my name was never mingled with their
