How PUBLISHER WAS NOT TAKEN lN.-Mr.
Fields, the Boston publisher has wonderful
memory 4; and his knowledge of English litera-
ture is so valuable, that, when a friend wishes
to know where particular passage may be
found, he steers at once for the corner, and con-
suits the man who is likely to give the desired
information. .pompous, woul !-he wit, not
long ago, thinking to puzzle him and make
sport for company at dinner, informed them,
prior to Mr.. F.'s arrival, thet he Dad himself
that morning written some poetry, and he in
tended to submit to Mr.. F., as Southey's. and
inquire in which of his poems the lines occurred.
At the proper moment, therefore, after the
guests were seated, he began:-"Friend Field
/ have been much exercised of late, irving to
find out in Southey's poems his well-known
lines, running thus"-Gepeating the lines he
had composed -"can you tell us about what
time he wrote them?" 81 do not remember TO
have met with them BEFORE" replied Mr.. f.,
"and there were only two periods in the South
ey's life when such lines could possibly have
been written by him." "When were those?"
Where" said Mr.. f., "about that early period Of
existence when he was having the measles and
cutting his first teeth; or near the close of his
life. when his brain had softened, and he had
fallen into idiocy. The versfcation belongs to
the measles period, but the expression clearly
betrays the idotic one" The funny questioner
smiled family, but the company roared.
A good anecdote is told of Mrs. Patterson,
of Baltimore, the lady connected with the Bo-
naparte family by marriage. Being in Italy, at
an evening party, it Tell to her lot to be handed
in to the supper table by young English noble
man, who had good share of the puppy in his
composition. Thinking to quiz the old lady, he
said: "You are acquainted with the Americans,
belieyeP" HVery WE'LL" "a monstrously
vulgar people, aren't theyP" ayes, but what
could you expect when you consider that they
are descended from the Englishp Had their
progenitors, now, been Italians or Spanisrds,
we might look for some good breeding among
them" The nobleman did not venture to adj
dress Mrs. Patterson again that evening.

ScrOfula. or Kings Evil,

is constitutional disease, 4 corruption Of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes yitiated
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, il
pcrvades the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which it ma,
not destroy. The scrofuous faint is variouslt
caused by mercurial disease. low living, dis.
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, fltl
and filthy habits, the depressing vices and
above all, by the vencreal infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con
stitution, descending " from parents to childrei
unto the third and fourth generation !" indeed
it seems to be the rod Of Him who say, Al
will visit the iniquities of the fathers upoi
their children"
Its effects commence by deposition from tho
blood OF corrupt or ulccrous matter, which, il
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is tcrmet
tubercles; i'll the glands, swellings; and OF
the surface, cruptions or sores. This foul cor.
ruption, which gcndcrs in the blood, dcprcssc.
the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu.
tons not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have far less power to with.
stand the attacks Of other diseases; conse.
quently vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous III their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this faint in the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofulous contamination; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, Of all the organs. arise from or
arc aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter Of all our people are scrofulous;
their persons arc invaded by this lurking in
lection. and their health is undermined by it.
10 cleanse it from the system we must renovate
the blood by an Alternative medicine. and in
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.
such . medicine we supply in
