MURDERS. A most unnatural murder was
committed near Danbury, (Conn.) on Thursday
week, in the evening, about seven O'Clock
Mr.. Noah Barnam of Danbury was shot by
his own son, who had been offended at him,
previously. The gun was loaded with two
balls, one of which entered his abdomen the
other his head. He expired instantly The
murder was deliberate the son-only eighteen
years of age-having, during the day, cut the
lilac bushes from before the window, for the
purpose of aiming with more unerring certain
iy. No longer ago than last week, one man
was sentenced TO be hung, by Judge DAGeET,
at Litehfeid, in June next, and another mar
rowly escaped conviction. REMEMBRANCE was
at the bottom Of the crimes, in both instances.

INDIAN COMPOUND

DALSAMIC SYRUP OF HOREHOUND
I'D AND OTHER HERBS /; containing
nineteen different kinds of plants; TOR Cen.
sumptons, common Coughs, Hopping Cough,
Difficulty of Breathing, Asthmas, Influenza,
|. Quinsy, Phthisc, Splitting of Blood, Group,
Weakness in the Sioe, Want of Sleep, Soreness
in tho Chest, and the Tickling in the Throat
which provokes Coughing.
This palsamic Syrup is an elegant and COM
modous form of exhibiting the virtues of hore-
hound, and the other herbs which enter into its
composition. Never has medicine been efier-
ed to the public under circumstances so ausp
cious as this preparation, it being composed
principally of an herb with which almost every
man, woman and child is familiar, enables its
usefulness to be Immediately known.
Hundreds already have escaped premature
grave, by resorting 20 it Immediately at the
commencement of a cold or cough, which, If
neglected, iniallibly terminate IN consumption,
and proves fatal to the patient Every person
who has made use of this Balsam, concurs in
saying, that il is the most mild, pleasant, and
certain remedy they have ever taken for the
above complaint. Its effects have been truly
wonderful and astonishing, indeed it might be
said miraculous Emaciated forms have risen
snder its influence, as it would appear, almost
by enchantment, to healthy and ,robnst con-
dltion. In not a single instance has it failed,
and unlike all other remedies, it may be taken
by persons ofany condition, without the fear of
dangerous results.
For Splitting of Blood, there is no medicine in
the known world which can equal it. 1t has re-
celved the appreciation Of most scientific physi
clans, many of whom prescribe it for their pa
tents, in preference to other medicines A few
months since, physician me, the proprietor,
and with much apparent pleasure appauded the
effects of the discovery, and observed, that he
truly believed that a few months previous it
was the means of snatching one of his patients,
an interesting young lady, from premature
grave.
This Balsam excites expectoration, composes
the nerves, and gives energy and strength to
the tender lungs.
Among the many testimonials of its remark.

from distinguished gentleman merits atten.

exercises an influence over tho minds of some,
or at least one, of the inhabitants of this fair

hustle in a neighboring town, occasioRed by the

gave to another for safe keeping between nine

being obliged TO move her own effects shortly
after, concealed the money under some hay in
a barn near by where she imagined it would

was made by a number Of others, and the mon.

no evidence could be brought against him.
Just before night it struck the mind of one Of
the neghbors that if this person had it, he
might be so frightened as to give it up. Ac.

M.'Blandin, a French surgeon, has com
municated to the Academy Of Sciences the
details of an operation which he lately per-
formed upon an individual from whom he
cut away cancerous nose, and the same
day supplied him with new nose formed
of the skin of the forehead. In this latter
part of the operation, NJ. Blandin introduced
a modification, which appears to him to pre-
sent great advantages :-"In place of cut
ting the pedcle of slip taken from the
forehead, have doubled The says) the skin
which formed it; then, after having raised
on the root of the nose integuments which
still remained there, determined the adhe-

nose of my patient transplantcd from the
frontal region, still communicates with the
vessels and nerves which maintained life
in the first days of the operation. 1t is
