The Southern Review holds the following Ian
guage with reference to the poem of Bulwer, en-
titled " The Siamese TWINS"
ct is inconceivabIe how so clever writer as
the author Of Pelham should so completely
have mistaken his walk, or have failed so utterly
to accomplish what he had in view. He has pub
lished two hundred pages of satire without point,
bufoonery without gaIety, and doegerel without
drollery or quaintness-the stupidest, without
exception, and most vulgar variety, of what is so
e pressively called in French, piatitude. Weary,
fiat, Improbable three words are the sum
ming up of what we have to say of this satirica
tale of the times-consldered as SATIRE"
This. it will be recoIected. comedies with the
opinion expressed by the Editor of the National
Gazette, and agrees with the remarks in the Ame-
rican Quarterly.
The Cincinnati Chronicle relates recent case
Of Hydrophobia in that place. which may carry
an admonitory caution to persons in this neigh
borhood. 1t appears that young man named
Morehead was seized with the usual symptoms
of this horrid disease. which terminated fatally
on the second day of the attack. and an exami-
nation of the body was made on the succeeding
day, and the diseased appearances, which most
constantly characterize hydrophobia, were pre-
sent; and no others. The case was therefore re-
garded by four respectable medical gentlemen
who attended him, as nothing more nor less,
than that which is produced by the bite of mad
dog. Still the patient had not been bitten by
such an animal, nor indeed had he ever been bit
ten but once, and that was nine years before, and
the animal not mad.
The only explanation of this curious and me-
lancholy event, which has been suggested, is the
following. The deceased was by trade tanner,
and it is supposed, as several domestic animals
are said to have died Of hydrophobia during the
past winter, that one of them, which had besmear-
ed its own hair with saliva, had been skinned,
and its hide sent to the lanyard, where the poi
son might have been inoculated into those who
handled it In the opinion of the profession, the
poison applied to the sound skin cannot excite
the disease, but the deceased, few weeks since,
had burn on one of his fingers, and the sore yet
had scab on it the time Of his death
