Member Of the Royal College Of Surgeons, Licen-
tiate Of Apothecary's Company, Fellow Of Bolt
Court Society, Surgeon to the Royal Union PEN
sion Association, Lancaster Place, Waterloo
Bridge, and Perpetual Pupil Of Guy and St.Tho-
mass Hospitals, London.
This valuable Medicine, the result Of 20 years
experience and unparalleled success in the extern
sve and highly respectable practice of the propr-
etor, patronised by the faculty and nobility y,-is
now introduced to the notice Of the American
public, at the earnest solicitation Of Il number Of
gentlemen Of long and high standing in the pro-
iession. II is hoped, as a preliminary step, to
check the evils and fatal consequences arising
from the use Of the numerous and deleterous nos-
trums foisted upon the public by the aid Of fabri-
Gated proofs for miraculous cures, & other frauds,
by set Of mercenary, unprnclpled pretenders-
so totally ignorant of medical science, that it is
impossible the mons,rous deusion can any longer
60 down with the intelligent people Of this coun-
try. These pills, mild and agreeable in their ma
ture, should be kept in every family in case Of
sudden illness, for by their prompt administration
cholera, cramps, spasms, fevers, and other alarm
ing complaints which too often prove fatal, may
be speedily cured or prevented In fact, all those
who value good health should never be without
them. They sold in packets at so cents, 81

THE PHILOSOPHER TO Ills LOVE.

THE PHILOSOPHER TO Ills LOVE.
Dearest, a look is but ray
Reflected in certain way:
A word, whatever tone il wear,
j. but trembling wave Of air,
a touch, obedience to a clause
Ia natures pure material laws.
The very flowers that bend and meet,
IL sweetning others grow more sweet;
The clouds by day, the stars by night
Inweave their floating locks Of light:
The rainbow. Heavens own forehead's braid
l. but the embrace Of sun and shade
How few that love us havo we found
How wide the world that girds them round!
Like mountain streams we meet and part
Each living in he others heart,
Our course unknown, our hope to be
Yet minge in the distant sea!
But ocean coils and heaves in vain,
Bound in the woven moonbeam's chain;
And love and hope are but the play
OF somecapricious planets ray.
To Ign, to lead, to rouse, to CHARM
Till death shall hush in icy calm.
Alas one narrow line is drawn,
That links TIE sunset TO the dawn,
In mist and shade life's morning rose,
And clouds are round it at its close;

The more quietly and peaceably we get
on, the better for ourselves, and the better
for our neighbors. In nine cases out of ten,
the wsest policy is, if any body cheats you,
to quit his company-if he slander you, take
care so to live as that nobody will believe
him-no matter who he is, or how he misuses
you, the wisest way is, s,generaly, just let him
cool, calm, quiet way Of dealing with the
wrongs we meet.

themselves from liability, in case Of the

announcing that the company were not re.

notice that they refused to be responsible

ANECDOTE OF GEN. PUTNAM.

Among the worthless who figured during
the era of the American Revolution, per-
haps there was none possessing more orig
inalty of character than Gen. Putnam, who
was eccentric and fearless, blunt in his
manners, the daring soldier without the
polish Of the gentleman. He might we'll
be called the Marion Of the north, though
he disllked disguise, probably from the fact
of his lisping. which wds very apt 10 over

The following anecdote was related to US
by On elderly gentleman, who received it
from the mouth Of his father, who served
under the General.

possession of the British. Putnam, with
a few sturdy patriots was lurking in its vi.

Tired OF lying in ambush, the men became

questions as to whom they were going to
have bout with the foe. One morning
he made speech something TO the follow.

you know all the particulars, if I should not
let'em have it by the hokey!"
He shortly afterwards mounted his OF
cart dressed as one of the commonest or.
der Of yankee farmers, and was soon at
Bush's tavern, which was in possession of
the British troops. No sooner did the ofi.
GERS espy him than they began to question
him as to his whereabouts, and finding him
a complete simpleton las they thought they
began to quiz him and threatened 10 seize
the corn and fodder.
How much do you ask for your whole

For marcy sake gentlemen replied the
mock clod-hopper, with the most deplorable

WELL said they, well take them at
your word, leave the team and provender
with US, and we won't require any bail for
your appearance
Putnam gave up the team, sauntered
about an hour or so, gaining all the infor.
nation that he wished: he then returned to
to his men, and told of the disposition oiths
foe and his plan of attack.
The morning came, and with il sailed

the Academy Of Sciences chemist, named
Thilurier, exhibited some carbonic acid gas

This experiment has been performed on a
small scale already, but in this instance
several pounds were produced. The agents
employed to effect the result are cold and

half pound Of quicksilver placed in con-

into tho eriform state. By allowing a
small quantity to escape through a minute

form of snowy vapor; this vapor being
directed in a jet into box of tin unites,
