The Use Of Opium.


nell) says the use Of opium rs IN e.hilera-
ting agent 10 much more frequent in the
community than many suppose. IL Is b.
lieycl that large number Of scdentary and
stadious men, and many clerymen, arc in
the habitual use Of this drug, and that
undcr its stimulus, many literary works
and sermons are written, and lawyers pleas
made. 1t is known that soma eminent di
vines, now deceased. impaired their intel
lsc;s by the uso Of opium. The drug, pro-
hlbly, is used Us much among ladies IN
fashionable life than in either Of the learned
professions. At meeting held in Boston,
ii was stated by one Of the Oldest and most
experienced physicians, that he knew lady
who took seventeen teaspooniuls Of lauda-
nun e'ory morning, 70 set her up for tho
day and it had to be made Of the best
opium, Us she would know in q minute il it
were in the least adultcrsted As 10 we'll
known, many eminent Enslish literary
Characters hayo boon addicted 70 the psrnic-
ipu, habit Of opium eating. Besides the
celebrated Do Quincy, may be mentioned
Wilbsrl6rce, the philanthropist. DR.. Isaac
Miner, Dean Of Carlisle, the frst Lord
Erskine. Samuel Taylor Coleridge, and
othes. Opium is powerful poison, and
although it creates temporary clysium in
tho deyOtec, its results are most disastrous.
Mr.. Tiffany, in u late work ON the Canton
