Singular Tragedy.
BosToN, Nav 2

BOSTON, Ray 70.
We have the particulars of a singular
tragedy which occurred at the Insane
Hospital at Someryille, yesterday noon,
at about which hour Mrs. Strong. of
Vermont, an aged and very feeble wo.
man was missing.
The alarm was immediately given, and
search instituted for her in all direc-
lions. In the course of few minutes
she was found in the room of Mrs. Jam
ieson, another lunatic, lying on the floor
at the foot of the bed. Mrs. Jameson
was kneeling on the bed in the attitude
of prayer, and looking directly down
upon the body, which was covered by a
sheet. There was apparently q slight
bruise near the right temple, and anoth-
er on the throat, but no indication of any
struggle having occurred between them,
and there was no discoloration of the
face of Mrs. Strong, whose body when
found retained much of the natural
warmth of life, except that the feet were
cold. Immediate and active restorative
means were used, nut without effect.
She was dead.
Mrs. Jameson was asked how Mrs.
Strong happened to be in her room. and
what had taken place TO occasion her
death! Amid many evidences of entire
delusion, she yet gave natural and con-
sisienf account, which was several times
repeated, to this efect:-I heard Mrs.
Strong ask for light-this was her con.
slant habit occurred to me that the
Lord had delivered her into my hands,
and that if there was any more light IN
the other world she should see ii; she
had been plaguing me for many months
with this inquiry, and now one of the
attendants being gone out, and the other
preparing dinner, determined to be rid
of the annoyance. | accordingly slip
ped out into the gallery and invited Mrs.
Strong into my room. She came with
me willingly, She had on two caps. l.
took them off and tied them round her
neck. The strings broke. She stood
still close TO me. making no resistance.
So knew the Lord had given her to
me. then put my hands around her
neck and choked her. | then laid her
down on the floor safely, so as to make
no noise. and took off one of my stock
ings and put it round her neck, pulling
il as hard as | could; but il was no use
she was already dead. | felt her
pulse, and KNEW il. Whilst | was do
ing this ! said my prayers, and thanked
the Lord tina; he had permitted me thus
TO glorify his name."
The trustees of the Institution ere in
vestigating the matter. The deceased,
Mrs. Strong, and also Mrs. Jameson, are
connected, but for some
time have been hopelessly insane.

HoRENsACK's WORM SYRUP

H0RENsACK'S WORM SYRUP.
An article founded upon Scientific Princi-
Piles, compounded with purely vegetable
substances, being perfectly safe when TAX
en-, and has NEVER been known to fail in
curing the most obstinate case. WORMS
can never exist when this remedy is once
used, from the fact that it not only des-
tloys them but removes all the slime and
mucus which may remain.
The Tape Worm.
This worm is the most difficult one to
destroy of all that inhabit the human BODY.
1t grows to an almost indefinite length,
and becoming SO coiled and fastened in
the intestines and stomach as to produce
Fits, st. Vitus' Dance, &C., which is the
cause of many going to the grave, not be-
ieving that these complaints have their
origin from the tape worm; consequently
they do not use the proper medicines for
their disease. To those who are afflicted
with this awful foe to health, | recommend
the use of my Worm Syrup, and Liver
Pills; the syrup to be taken in doses of two
tablespoons full three times day, then
take from five to eight of my Liver Pills,
to dislodge and pass the worm. BY strictly
following these directions, the most OBJ
stinate cases of Tape Worm can be speed
lily cured.
Round or stomach Worm.
This worm is usually found in the small
intestines, and is the worm most common
to children, yet il is not entirely confined
to them, as adults have frequently been
known 10 suffer with them. The symp-
toms most prominent while affected with
this worm, are hardness and fullness of the
belly slimy stools, looseness of the bowels,
picking at ;he nose, blueish streak under
the eyes, &c. If you, or any of your chill
dren have any of the above symptoms,
HOBENSACk'S WORM SYRUP can be
safely depended upon--by using it you
have certain, safe, and speedy cure; and ii
after using it according to the directions
the patient is not restored to health, and
the worms thoroughly eradicated from the
system, you can rest assured there is no
remedy beyond the grave, as for fail. there
is no such word as tail with those who use
my WoRA SYRUP.
