vent to his detestation of bad liquor, in
the following charge "Gentlemen of

a wholesome and pleasant beverage, and
as far as the experience of the court ex-
tends, conduces to health and longevity !;
but bad article of liquor, gentlemen, or,
what is worse, a drugged article, cannot
be tolerated; and if dealers from below
soiU send up to this beautiful country, so
blessed with the smile of a benignant
Creator, such a miserable quality of liquors,
as the proof shows this to be, in this
Court, gentlemen of the Jury, they can

Vieuxtemps' violinistic execution of
Yankee Doodle is thus described by
'Borax, droll Mobilian: 'He played it
low down, and then high up, with all four
parts at once; with the bow up against
the bridge, without any bow at all. He
played it backwards and forwards, side
ways and crossways, began at the end,
and left off at the beginning-began at
the middle and left off at both ends
then commenced at both ends and left off
IN the middle-twanged it like guitar,
growled it like base viol, squeaked it
like a fife, warbled tlike flute, and picked
it out like banjo. 1t was Yankee
Doodle all the time, like boy whistling !;
anon, like pair of harmonious cats !;
then again with all the variations which
displayed and set off the original air, as
an array of jewels adorns the beauty of

There is no malady of deeper Importance.
either in medical or moral point of view, to
which the human family is more liable, than
that arising from impure connections
AS medical man, it is the duty of every
physician to look at disease as it effects health
and life, and his sole object should be to miti-
gate, as far as lies in his power, the bodily
suffering. Human nature at best is bnt frail :;
all are liable to misfortune.
Of all the ills that affect man, none are more
terrible than those of a private nature Dread
ful as it is in the person who contracts it,
frightful as are its ravages upon his constitu-
ton, ending frequently in destruction and
loathsone grave, it becomes of still greater i'm
portance when it is transmitted to innocent
offspring. Such being the case, how necessary
1t becomes that every one having the least
reason to fear that they have contracted the
disease, should attend to it at once, by consult
ing some physician, whose respectability and
education enables him to warrant a safe, speedy
and permanent cure. In accordance with this
necessity, DR.. YOUNG feels called upon to
state that by long study and extensive prac-
tice, he has become perfect master of all those
diseases which come under the denomination
of venereal, and having paid more attention to
that branch than any other physician in the
United States, he feels himself better qualified
to treat them
Syphilis in all its forms, such as Swelling of
the Groins, Ulcers, Ulcers in the Throat, Sec
ondary Syphilis, Cutaneous, Eruptions, Ulcera-
tlons, Tertiary Syphilis in Children, Mercurial
Syphlitic Affections, Gonorrhea, elect, Stric-
lures, False Passages, Inflammation of the
Bladder and PROSTATE Glands, Excoriations,
Tumors, Pustules, etc, as familiar to him
as the most common things of daily observa-
ton.
The Doctor effects cure in receiving cases
in few days, and finds no difficulty in curing
those OF long duration, without submitting the
patient to such treatment as will draw upon
him the slightest suspicion or oblige him to
neglect his business, whether within doors or
without. The diet need not be changed ex-
cept in cases of severe inflammation. There
are in California, patients, amounting to owe,
two thousand in the past year, that could fur
Eish proof of this but these are matters that
require the incest secrecy, which he always
preserves.

Old Psalm Tunes.

Blackwood says Of old psalm tunes:
There is to us more of touching pathos
heart-tbriling expression, in some Of the
old psalm tunes, feelingly displayed, than
10 whole batch of modernisms. The
strains 60 home; the foundations Of the
great deep are broken up: the great deep
Of fathomable feeling, that lies far below

and as the unwonted. yet unchecked tears
start TO the eye, the softened spirit yields
to their influence, and shakes off the load
of earthly care, rising purified and spirit
ualized into clearer atmosphere. Strange
and inexplicable associations brood over
the mind, "like the far off Ireams of par
adise" mingling their chaste melancholy
with musihg Of still subdued though
more cheerful character. How many glad
hearts, in the olden time, have rejoiced in
these songs ofpraise-how many sorrow :
full ones have sighed out their complaints
in these plaintive notes that now, cold in
death, are laid to rest around that sacred
church, within whose walls they had SO
often swelled with emotion? - .,..,

A King in Mexico.

It has been suggested by those wei
posted in Mexican affairs, that Santa An
ma is returning for the purpose Of creating
Mexico into a kingdom for the seconc
daughter Of Ferdinand the Seventh, ii
which project he has the joint assistance
of France and Spain. 1t is said that the
higher ranks of the clergy are all inclined
to rally to the support Of a throne occu.
pied BY a scion Of the old race Of kings
The monarohial project also finds much
favor with the rich landholders, who
measure their estates by miles instead ol
acres, aid who sigh for royal court with
its glittering array Of titles and dignities,
which would all be theirs
The Washington States remarks r
"The navy and war force collecting at
Havana, the respectful tone of the Span
ish press towards Santa Anna, the pecu-
liar spirit of the late ecclesiastical rela.
tions between Rome and Mexico, from
the awful fate Of becoming a part Of this
poor unhappy Union, hint strongly at the
possibility of a grand coup d'etat in Mex

New Mode of Lighting.

New Mode of Lighting
The Washington correspondent of the
Charleston Mercury says:
have recently seen, at the great hall
Of the Patent Office, beautiful and won
derful piece of mechanism, consisting Of a
galvanic electric "pparatusf for lighting and
extinguishing gas. By means Of it all
the gas lights Of a great edifce may be
ignited or extinguished, or made to burn
brightly or dimly, at the will Of single
operator, within an instant OF time. BY
means Of it ciy-the largest city in the
world may be Illuminated or darkened in
like manner and in appreciable space of
time. By means Of it. ship, or fleet
of ships. beyond the reach Of rocket or
ball, may be destroyed, whether on the
seacoast or on the ocean. Mr.. Samuel
Gardner, jr,, Of New York, the inventor,
was present to exhibit and explain it. He
states that the expense Of lighting New
York by lamp.lghters is S5o0.o0o a
year, and that the expense of applying
this apparatus to all the lights Of the city
would be $500, ,OCO; and that after their
application one person at the mayors or
any other Office, could manipulate and
control the whole. Not only is the flame
excited at the mouth Of each tube, but the
valve ofeacb may be opened to any de-
sired extent, or closed at the discretion Of
the operator. This, indeed, was demon
strated to us. American, English and
French patents have all been secured, and
the fortune Of the inventor is doubtless
made. p s
