In THE MIDST OF LIFE WE ARE IN
DEATH"-What great results some
times flow from minute causes. The
splashing of a stocking caused the ter
riblc revolution in France, and led to
the reign Of terror An incautious word
may provoke murder, or a silly remark
destroy the brightest hopes of-ambitisa-
A wet foot, or sitting in draught, may
produce cold, which, if neglected, may
lead to that bourne from whose undis-
covered country no traveller returns.n
A slight cold may lead to consump.
ton, that most insidious, that Judas of
diseases that syren who paints the
cheek with glow like that of health,
and, while tugging at the very citadel
OF life, is continually whispering hope
and recovery to the unhappy victim,
who, by neglect of a slight cold, has al
lowed the monster to fasten the fangs
in the heart, and poison the blood, till
no poppy or mandragora, or all the me-
dicinal plants that ever grew, can medi-
cine them again to health. In view of
these things, how necessary it is that
we should be upon our guard how anx-
iously we should watch the first approach
of the spoiler, and take means TO com
bat his cruel designs. 10 do this a
remedy must be found f; and in the
whole list Of those that the science or
ingenuity of man has contrived, none
have met with so much success as DR..
Rogers Syrup of Liverwort, Tar and
Canchalagua, 1t is, in fact, almost in
fallible it operates with soothing,
beneficial effect upon the lungs it heals
them, if they are liberated; it removes
inflammation, if they are infamed /; if they
are choked and stopped by phlegm,
it relieves saem of the burden if they
are fevcrish, it cools them and restores
them to strength and healthy action.
Hundreds and thousands have testified
to the efficiency Of this medicine and
we consider that We are only doing our
duty to the proprietor and the public
when we vouch for the immense amour,
of suffering it has relieved, the number
OF persons rescued from a premature
grave, and families saved from misery
and mourning. in fact, Rogers Syrup
of Liverwort, Tar and Chanchalagua is
the "Balm Of fGilead. .-New York Cour-

s@- According to the decree of the
British Goyerhment, on the 3lst of last
mopth, Sir John Franklin and the crews
ofboth ships we're to be considered dead
In speaking Of this fact, the United
States Gazette relates the case of Lit.
Bonneville, who, upon returning from a
long visit to the Rocky Mountains, found
himself dead on the books of the Adjp-
tant Generals Office at Washington,
and others promoted over him. The
officials were ingreat trouble, and didn't
know how-to get over the record, when
President Jackson, who was a man Of
some Civil courage, drew his pen through
the lying obituary, and restored the gal
liant lieutenant to life, to his rights, and
to his back pay. - ~. ,,

Times mentions the following remark
rble discovery
A very remarkable discovery was an
nounced at the Academy of sciences by
M. Dumas in its last sitting. He stated
that NJ. Saint Clair De Vile had sue
oeeded in obtaining from clay metal
as white and brilliant as silver, as NAL
leable as gold, and as light as glass.
1t is fusiblc at a moderate temperature
Air and damp do not affect this metal
which is called aluminium; it retains
its brilliancy and is not affected by nit
rc acid. Several specimens of this
metal were exhibited 70 the Academy,
and on the proposition of Baron The
nard, it was voted unanimously that a
sufficient sum should be placed at the
disposal of NJ. Saint Clair De Vile to
enable him to make experiments on o
larger scale. ....

deceive the unwary has made its ap-
pearancc in Boston. 1t purports to be
a one dollar bill on tho Producers Bank,

1t is, we should judge, an alteration
from some broken bank. %

INTERESTING TO ADvERTIsERs.-A
case of much interest to advertisers and
publishers of newspapers was decided in
one of the South Carolina courts on the
18th ult., Suit was brought by Messrs.
Johnston & Davis against j. G. JAN
ney, for recovery of payment for pub
fishing an advertisement ffty-one time.
At the bottom of the advertisement was
a notice to papers in the State to publish
to the amount Of dollars. The defend
ant took ground that this supplementary
notice embraced the paper in which it
first appeared. 1t was shown, however,
that no special order was given as re-
garded this paper, and a verdict was
rendered in favor of the plaintiffs for
the full amount of the account, thus
settling the principle that advertisers
must either distinctly specify the mum
Der Of insertions, or be liable for pay
ment until the advertisement is order
cd out. '"'.rrl .".d r..lu.

tome of having the ceremony performed
in church is becoming more frequent

Putnam's to American literature. While
thc.lofty tone and energetic, go-a-head-

the graver class Of readers, there is a
quaint raciness about it that equally
commends it to those fond of lighter

extreme low price at which it is pub
