Other Tests

Finding this medicine usefut to myself at once
gave it to several invalid friends About this time
earnestly solicited to give advice in reference to
child some eight years of age. This child was se-
verely afflicted with Scrofula humor. of very
we're type, the humor showing itself all parts of
the surface and then suddenly disappearing. The
whether she would live. The humor resembed black
specks of mortified flesh. In addition to some other
remedies. gave the child this Syrup for about six
weeks when she had sufficient strength to go out to
school occasionally The swelling of ber limbs ceas
edand she restored to health The family feel that
they owe her life. with Gods blessing to remedies
This test satisfied me that the Rock Rose possessed
specific powers for Scrofuous humors. then tested
it in cases of Cutaneous Eruptons In Measles
Chicken Pox. Canker. Sore Mouth. Erysipelas. Salt
Rheum, Piles, &c. In all these with perfect
success. After testing this syrup for more than a
year, wrote Mr. Myers, (Oct I, lS50) enthusiastic
ally. not expecting my letter would be published,
that his Syrup was "a Pankorte." dH-hedling. and
gave him the result Of its operation in several in
stances stated in that letter that 1T was invalu
able IA remedy in Cutaneous Eruptions. Erysipeas
salt Rheum. and other disorders included in the va
ried family Of diseases known as Scrofula &c ; that
in Dyspepsia Is acted with wonderful efficacy.n My
opinion of its value for the above-Damed diseases.
remain unchanged. and the same as when wrote Mr.
Myers in Oct 1850 do not recommend il for all
the ills of our suffering humanity but unhestat-
ingly say. that remedy in Scrofulous affections.
believe il superior to any known curative agent.
1t has been sufficiently tested by domestic practice
to establish its adoption to extensive usefulness in
mitigating human suffering and removing disease.

fastened on trihing fellow in the neigh
borhood, with whom h. had a difficulty,
by the name Of Williams, as the perpe-
traitor of the deed, but who Indignantly
repe.led the " soft impeachment" The
Squire, from bis intimate acquaintance
with human nature, believed that he
could substantiate the charge, by fell
low of the name Of Smith, and accord
ingly had him summoned as a witness.
The trial was before Squire W, and
John S. Fale appeared for the plaintiff
The defence was conducted by Ceylon F
Brayster.

"And you know also that Williams

testimony is sufficiently clear and to the
point, l think, to justify his commit

"One moment, Mr.. Smith," says
Ceylon, "before you retire. You say that
my client, Williams, killed the bull"
+" do"
I" How far off were you when the bull
was killed ?"
About four hundred yards"
did you see Williams kill the bull ~
"No."
"Did you ever hear Williams, or any
one else, say that he killed the bull ?"
81 did not''
"Then, Mr. Smith, if you were four
hundred yards from where he was killed,
didn't see him, didn't hear the report
of the rife, Williams nor any one else
didn't tell you he did it, please inform
this court how you know that my client,
Williams, killed the bull z"

THESE Cases, now coming into general
use, are admitted by those who have wit
messed their merits, to be superior to any
other kind Of Coffns for depositing in vaults,
or for ordinary interments. The advant-
ages they possess are obvious to all. Being
enameled inside and out, they are impervi-
Gus to dampness; and the qualification sur
viving friends have in the reflection that the
body is deposited in an imperishable case,
where all that remains Of the deceased is
kept together, without danger of being
crushed by the weight Of earth upon it and
free from the irrupton Of water or depreda-
tions of vermn, as is the case where wood
Cofins are used, would alone suffice 10 re-
commend them. They are also superior to
any other Cotfins for Transporting Bodies /;
for, when properly cemented, they are per-
fectly AlR-TlGHT and free from exhalation

The last Fly Of Sum mcr.

The last Fly OF SUNNI
'Tis the last fly of summer
Left buzzing alone,
All its black-legg'd companions
Are dried and gone;
Not one Of its kindred,
No blue bottle nigh,
To sport mid the sugars,
Or in the milk die.
I'll not doom thee, thou lone one,
A victim to be;
Since the rest are all vanish'd,
Come dine thou with me.
Thus kindly l scatter
Some crumbs Of my bread,
Where thy mates on the table
Lie witherd and dead.
But soon thou wilt perish,
I'm sadly afraid,
For the glass is at sixty
Just now in the shade.
When wasps have all vanish'd,
And blue bottles flown,
No fly can inhabit
This blank world alone.
