WE'RE ALL COWARDS In THE
DARK.

bAhhs
A medical friend Of ours who, som,
wears since, visited Paris under circum
stances most favorable 10 an eniree 10 :
most interesting circle---lhal OF The sur
yiyors aud Ell dev0at supporters Of The
'Empire,' tells capital story as he
heard it related by the celebrated Cen
etsl Excelmsns, one Of Napcleou's pat
uaipS. 1t was at dinner party, com
posed Of some of survivors Of Waterloo,
few OF their younger relatives, and The
scion Of an exhi0g, on visit ifom his
home in Amelics, and 10 whom ouI
friend owed his introduction 10 the cir
Gle. Some question arose about bravery
when the younger members OF the com
pany were electrified to hear The vener-
able and heroic Excelmsns gravely and
seriously declare, that all were cOaCard'
an tie durk! The General smiled 81
their expressions Of dissent, remarked
that it was very like youth, and pro-
ceeded TO tel! the following anecdote in
support Of his strange declatalon.
There was a young hot-head in the
Emperor's service, who, burning for ac'
,ori, and his duties at the time afford
ing no opportunity, at last he resolved
10 fight a duel, and accordingly, choos-
ing 10 conslrue some remark or other
of an older and superior officer into an
insult, challenged him. The old SOL
dier, waving all considerations of rank,
agreed 10 meet the young man, but on
the following unusual terms. The time
should be night, The place a room in
opposite corners Of which they were to
stand. The seconds, having placed
their men, were TO withdraw outside Of
The door, taking The candleSwith them.
The word should be given from with
out, when he who had the fire should
discharge his weapon, and the seconds
bearing The lights should Immediately
rush III!
These strange conditions were ac'
copied, The time arrived, and the sec
onds placed The parties as agreed uponj
Withdrawing Immediately aud leaving
their men 10 The dalk. The word was
given, The fire was heard, The door was
re-opened. and there stood the elder OF
the two, bolt upright in the corner, his
adversarJ's ball having entered the
wall SO close 10 his head that the escape
see med little less than miraculous
1t was now The old soldiers turn TO-
fire; they were again left in The dark,
the word was again gwen from The out
side, and, ins,snlaneouSly with the dis
charge, the seconds rushed in 10 find
the challenger PROSTATE upon the floor
moi gel having recovered himself
.jr0m his trick TO avoid The ball, which
on examination, it was found must have
killed him.
The young man was covered with
confusion, and The seconds were over
wheIming him with the expression Of
their scorn, when the veteran stopped
them.
'Not SO fsst' my young friends said
he, you will grow wiser. Where dc
you suppose was al the first fre3 On
my hands and knees in the corner, but,
ma Joi! was up quicker than he!
Par dieu, MeSSiemS sOe are eOtOaras
in The darkn
Ii was afterwards whispered TO ou
friend, that the story was an actual fact
and that the elder of the parties, wa
no other than the br ave warrior Excel
mans, himself.

II D FAD and understand The time will come
Il q, when the medicine, Brandreh Pills, will he
appreciated as they ought and deserve; it will he
understood that Dr. Brlndreth has the strongest
claims upon the public 1t is true that every in.
diydual who makes trial Of the Blandreth Pills
concede them to be the best medicine they ever
used They indeed medicine about which
there is no mistake. Their value in climate so
changeable as ours cannot be sufficiently approca-
ed free perspiraion is at once restored thus
they cure colds, and consumption is prevented.-
Those who have a redundancy of bile find them of
the most essential service, and should there be de-
lciency of that important fluid the Brandreth Pills
have an equally beneficial effect. Often has this
important medicine saved valuable lives in those re-
gions where the dreadful yellow fever was prevail
ing, few doses taken Immediately upon the in
iecton being received into the system, will b. al,
most certain to prevent any material inconvenience
And at no stage of this dreadful epidemic is there
so proper medicine as the Brendreth Pills. Let
this medicine be universally used in this
disease, and no loss of blood allowed and few,
very few, would be its victims. So it is with other
diseases. Assist nature with this all imporra mt
medicine to remove morbid humors from the blood
and do not resort to bleeding or mercury, and we
shall have very great scarcity Of persons afflicted
with Cronic maladies. The feahered tribe--the an
imal kingdom. over which we are the lords are
not afflicted with chronic malades; neither should
we be if it were not for our price which occasions
them. Follow nature. Use the medicine whi h
harmonizes with her, which mildly but surely re.
moves all the impurities of the blood, which strength
ems the eebe,and yet reduces those of too full habit
to healthy standard. Let me again say that every
department of the manufacture of Brandreth Pills
is personally superintended y me, and that every
box with my three labels upon it may lie relied up
on to have the beneficial effect described if used
according to the directions accompanying.
