i she only knew what people said Of her,
and they would say much more, if they
knew 'chat knotc! why, don't YOU be-
lieve-(here the voice sinks 10 the low
mysterious whisper denoting horrid dis
closures,I and not being anxious to be in.
uiated into these secret revelations, we
find ourselves absent in body just then,
so we cannot publish the Sequel" as yet.
The above description is specimen Of
SANDER only in its milder forms; but
there is kind of,Delirum Tremens con-
nected with the worst stages Of this dis
ease, to which no language can adequate
ly do justice. The patient is not apt TO
be attacked in this manner, unless she
has been thwarted in her object: for in
stance, ifshe has been at work for weeks
and months to ruin the reputation or
prospects Of some particular individual,
and has failed, mo words can then de-
scribe her unboundei rage and madness.
| never saw but one instance of this kind,
and trust never may another; inunendo.
powders, malicious reports, and poisoned
arrows had been hurled at the intended
victim, and all 10 no purpose, until the
medical compounds, and the whole artil-
lery stock Of Islander bank had we'll nigh
failed; indeed, | believe some one tod me,
from Tattletown Alley that they did sus-
pend payment for a while, aud suppose
This useless expenditure Of ways and
means, to no purpose, was what brought
on the Tremsns upon poor Mrs.
the President Of the "Tat!lctown SLAM
der Association. Poor, unfortunate la.
dy! never had one labored more assdu-
ously in the good cause of SANDER; and
now, 10 be defeated at last! never did one
afflicted with the hydrophobia, in its worst
form, present such 81 ght to mine eyes!
her eyes, swollen and bloodshot, fairly
starting from their sockets-tears Of dis
appointed malice coursing each other
down her cheeks, tongue protruding from
her mouth, yet, ,elegraph-like in its mo
tons, distilling poison at every breath,
hands clenched, visage pale with anger,
head Medusa-like, and in such fearful
plight was poor Mrs. -, rushing
from house to house, with the drawn day
ger Of Spite, ready to plunge into the
heart Of her victim.
Thus much for the disease Of SANDER,
and its fatal consequences. The question
next arises, Is there no remedy?
Physicians say none; but though mex
perienced in Patent Medicines, old re-
ceipts, and such-Iike, think | must pre-
scribe for once, and present to the public
the following receipt, said by the author
to De Il sure cure-l lighted upon it few
days since while searching an old cabinet
ef curiosilies, said to have belonged once
to wandering Jew.
A Sure Cure for Slander.-Take 3
grains Of common sense, one pound Of be-
ncvolence, 3 penny-weights Of good will,
half pint of charity,a proportionatc guam
tity Of kindly affection, 3 gills Of lotht to-
believe eril, and mix it we'll with large
portion of stay at-homeatireness, and SIM
mer 1t down over the slow fire Of 1omes-
tic duties, and let it be taken in the fol-
lowing proportion:-Those slightly dis
eased, half tea.sPoonful every morning
before breakfast, until perfect health IS
restored; but for those afflicted in the
highest degree, 3 table poonsful every
half hour will not be amiss.
