land bar, p. p. 426; Frederick Maryland 1916. Z
This is the only systematic development Of the
Baconlan philosophy ever attempted. The author
has anticipated Mr.. Nell in the most important OF
his logical views, set forth in his system Of logic
just reprinted in this country. Mr.. Tyler had pub
shed these views in the Princeton Review long be-
fore Mr.. Mills's book appeared in England. Mr..
Tyler and not Mr. Mills, is entitled to the credit Of
first promulgating these views. The scope, however,
of Mr.. Tyler's book is entirely different from that Of
Mr. Mills's, and embraces a much larger field An

WHITE SULPHUR WATER, from
w the White sulphur Springs, Green

"HITE SULPHUR WATER, from
w the White sulphur Springs, Green
brier county, Virginia.-The reputation of
the White Sulphur water is now so general, and its
virtues in the cure of various diseases 80 well
known throughout this country, that it is deemed
unnecessary to enter into general detail of its pc
cuar properties or Of its special application TO dis
ease, but 1t is deemed proper to state here for the
Information of those who yet may have had no
opportunity Of testing the virtues of the White Sui
phur water, when removed from the fountain, that
the propreors have been engaged for several years
in transporting the water to all parts of the country
In barrels and half barrels, which have undergone
careful and thorough preparation, and that il has
been satisfactorily asceIaned that the medical prop
critics of the water reside mainly in iis solid con-
tents; and as these are not deposited or otherwise
lost by expectation, the transported water must
tain as much strength as that used fresh from the
fountain. Numerous comparative trials made with
the water thus transported and the water fresh at
the spring, by intelligent and observant persons
from all parts Of the Union, with view Of nscer-
tanning its strength in either case, have abundanty
proved the truth of this position Various letters
substantiang these facts are in the possession Of
the pfoprietors, copies of some Of which may be
found in the pamphlets containing general direc-
tons for the of the water, which are furnished
to the vendors for gratutous distribution among their
customers.

Thomas BEHLEr and ANN, his vile, In Queen
AIMS county
Us. court, sitting
as court Of
JAMES L. BEwLEY. term, 1886.
THE object Of this suit is TO procure decree for
Il sale Of certain premises in Queen AIMS
county, conveyed by a certain James Roe to James
l.. Bewey, nonresident, in fee, that your orators
may receive the difference between the sum paid
therefor by said James L. Bewley, and the amount
Of such sale, in the event that said James L. Bew'
ley shall not pay unto your orators the sum Of hf-
hundred dollars, with interest from the date Of
the aforesaid conveyance.
The bill states that, some years ago. your orators
conveyed certain premises TO certain James Roe,
in fee, for the Of two thousand dollars but thai
said conveyance intended TO operate as a mort,
gage, for that said Roe passed his bond to Thomas
Bewley, binding himself TO reconyey on the pay
ment TO said Roe Of said two thousand dollars aud
further that said Roe gave bond to Ann, wife Of
Thomas Bewley, providing for her annuity Of
seyenty-two dollars during her natural life in case
said Ann should survive said Thomas Bewley.
The bill further states that said Roe offered to your
orators the sum of fifteen hundred dollars for the
delivery Of the aforesaid bonds but that your ora
tors, believing the said premises to be worth more
money, and being unwilling the title should pass
out of the family Of your orators, prevailed upon
James l.. Bewey, the defendant, TO discharge the
debt due and owing to said Roe, who thereupon
conveyed said premises said defendant in fee; but
your orators that it was understood and agreed
between them and said defendant, that the defend
ant should have only the estate and interest therein
which said Roe had held; and that, trusting to the
6lal affections of said defendant did not require
such obligations from him as said Roe passed, and
now said defendant hath elected them from said
premises to the great injury OF your orators, and
they without remedy except by the interference
of this court; and that the said James l.. Bewley
resides out of the State of Maryland.
1t is thereupon adjudged and ordered, that the
complainant, by causing copy Of this order to be
inserted in newspaper published in the city of
Washington, District Of Columbia, once in each Of
three successive weeks, before the first day Of July
next give notice to the said absent defendant of the
object and substance of this bill, and warn him 10
appear in this court in person, by solicitor,
before the second day of November next, to answer
the premises and show cause, if any he has, why a
decree ought not to pass as prayed.
