incrustations are massive and splendid

EFFECTS OF THE PASSIONS.

Every one knows the influence of the
depressing passions on the human frame.
A beaten army has always more sick lex
clusively of the wounded) than a victori-
Gus one; and in civil life, the effect of
losses and disappointments in destroying
the digestion and wasting the strongest
constitution, are but too familiar to the
commonest observer. But the picture has
a brighter side.
Hope and success are finer tonics than
any to be found in the apothecaries' shops,
and even fear may boast its cures. A
German physician, so runs the tale, sue
ceeded in curing an epidemic convulsion
among the children of poor house by the
fear of red-hot poker. The fits had
spread by sympathy and imitation and
this great physician, mistrusting the ordi-
nary remedies IN SO grave case, heated
his instrument, and threatened to burn
the first who should fall into fit The
conyulsions did not return.
4 celebrated scholar was once attacked
with fever at a country inn. He was Wis
tied by two physicians; and one of them
supposing, from the poverty of his ap-
pearaDce, that be would not understand
Latin Let's try an experiment on this
poor fellow" AS soon-as they were gone,
the patient got out of bed. hurried on his
clothes, scampered off as fast as he could,
and was cured of his fever by his fright.
In England, quite recently, girl. be-
ing attacked with typhus fever, was sent
to the hospital. A week afterwards, her
brother was seized with the same disease,
and was sent to the same institution The
nurses were helping him up the stairs at
the hospital On his way he was met by
some persons who were descending with a
coffin on their shoulders The sick man
inquired whose body they were removing,
when one of the bearers Inadvertently
mentioned the girls name. 1t acas has
sister The brother, horror struck, spraug
from his conductors dashed down stairs,
out of the hospital gate, and never stopped
running until he had reached home-a
distance of twelve mile He flung him
self on the bed Immediately, fell into a
sound sleep, and awoke next morning, en-
tirely cured of bis illness.
The most beautiful instance, however,
that we have met with, is one in which
the cure depended on the combination OF
the pleasures of hope and memory DR..

Loves sweetest emblems are the flowers.
The blushing flowers of SPRING
Then bring me- dear, to charm my hours.
Sweet leaves and blossoms bring.
I ask not gems or costly toys
Their brightest ray is cold,
And ours are simpler, purer joys
Than can be won by gold
The gems endure, the roses fade
Yet something in the heart
Still tells that Love is best portrayed
By Nature, not by Art
The dews, that tremble on the leaf,
But make its tints appear
More beautiful than aught so breaf,
Except Loves smile and tear.
Their odors, too, a sweeter bliss
To sense and soul convey,
Then aught beside the early kiss
OF Loves unclouded day.
Then bring me, dear to charm my hours,
Sweet leaves and blossoms bring;
Loves meekest emblems are the flowers,
The blushing flowers of spring.
