THE remarkable properties of Medicines have engaged the attention of mankind in all ages , and to the sagacity , industry , aad good fortune of inquirers , the world is indebted for many valuable discoveries . Among these are some which have maintained their claim to distinction for a long period of time , and have commanded approbation as real additions to the general stock . - * The CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM lays claim to this distinction , as no remedy has hitherto been discovered which proves so generally beneficial
in disorders of the nervous system and of the digestvr « 4 rgan 8 . In trembling of the limbs , pal p i t a t ion of th « heart , vertigo , fl . autulen . ee , lownesa of spirits , and general debility , and in the symptoms of a cold , biliou s , and consumptive habit , its efficacy is very frea t . Whether used to give relief to those who ave reason to repent an excessive indulgence of t he p a s s io n s or t he habi ts of f as hion a ble lif e , too great attention to business , or juvenile indiscretions that strike at the root of health and vigour , it will -be found an invaluable bracer and invigoraut . the so
riothin ^ perhaps weakens mind much as pernicious practices , which tak « possession of the whole miad and attention , and prevent its votaries from following their respective vocations , by engrossiag thei | ideas , even when they should be employed in devotion or business ; rendering them stupid , dull , and thoughtful , and destroying their vivacity , c heerfulness , and heal t h , by bringing on consumption , and ail that dreadful train of complaints which make them iimid , whimsical , and ridiculous . Such as these , under Divine Influence , the Cordux Balm of Stbiacum will restore to the enjoyment of all th « comfort 3 of life . It is universally admired , being pleasant to the taste and smell , gently asiringes the fibres of the stomach , and gives that
proper tensity which a good digestion requires . As nothing can be better adapted to help and nourish the constitution , eo there is nothing more generally acknowled ged to be peculiarly efficacious in all inward wasting * , loss of appetite , indigestion , depression of spirits , trembling or shaking of the hands or limb s , obstinaU coughs , shortness of breatb ; « r consumptive habits . It possesses wonderful efficacy in all nervous disorders , fits , bead-aches , weaknesses , heaviness and lowness of spirits , dimnes 3 of sight , confused thought , wandering of the mind , va p ou rs and melanchol y , and all kinds of h y steric c o mp laints are gradually removed by its use . In sicknes of the stomach , fiautulencies , or obstructions , it is safe and powerful ; and as a purifier of the blo o d , it has not its equal in the world ! This
Balsamic Cordial may be justly enumerated aajoDgst the for jmost of those happy discoveries which medical research has procured as the blessings of the human race , and greatest counteractive k > human misery : thousands at this moment in the United Kingdom , live to praise the day they first made trial of this Restorative , This Cordial is highly esteemed in the East and W est Indies , far nourishing and invigorating the nervous system , and acting as a general restorative on debilitated constitutions , arising from bilious complaint * contracted in not climates .

Sir , —Considering that the public would be . greatly ben e fi tt ed b y the publication of the extraordinary bciuent which I have derived by taking Blair ' i Gout and Rheumatic Pills , I herewith send the particulars of my case , and the Medical Certificate , by whioh 1 was invalided . I was first attacked with Rheumatio Gout in ] 826 , from which period to 18331 was under the treatment of the late Drs . Rod , Homer and Jacobs , as well as by the present Dr . Davis , a ll of Hampstead . From 1833 to 18381 was at Sfc John ' s N e w f oundland , doing duty as a Subaltern in the Royal V eteran Com p anies , where I suffered most severely * and was under the care of Surgeon He wston , R . V . C . I AssiBwas
own -ourgeon Ferguson , and Mr . Shea , private practitioner there , wilhwrt being ablest prevent th « most violent fits of the gout three or four times annuall y , which becoming so bad caused the Garrison Order for the Medical Board , as before named . About the middle of hut February and thl whole oi March my suftwrings were dreadful ; in fart , I was unable to move without being carried ; when Major Birch , of Crondale , near Farnbam , a Magistrate of this county , kindl y commiserating my siuia"on * called oa me for the purpose of taking my afiiaavit , that I might receive my half-pay ; and seeing me in so miserable a state , advised me to tr y Blair s tout and Rheumatic Pills , savinr . althon » h
no t g outy him s e l f , he knew several who had derived ; benefit from them . I had previously been advised by a then neig hb o ur Mr . Fedgent , of Alderlhot , to try them , but 1 declined uutil the Major neom * monded them . I commenced by taking them according to the directions ; and , alter taking six pills , found a oessatioQ of all pain , and the remainder of the box effectually settled that fit . I have since had several attacks , but as soon as I feel the least sensation ot the disease I take the pills , which have at once removed all symptoms . I may also mention that the chalk which had formed on my ears has disappeared , and where it formed in my finger * is aecreasiuic . i t » ve ceased to have those" vory weakening perspirations to which I was snbiMt lJfV » M ,

During her performance , while she was at an elevation of twenty feet from the stage , dome of the tackling gave way , and the charming Mrs . Gibbs came plumii upon the stage , just as if a chair had been pulled from under her while sitting . As soon as she struck the stage , she bounded up like a niece
ot Indian rubber , so high that the persons above almost caugh t her again , but did not . The audience was m terror for a few seconds , fearing she was hurt . No such thing . After she had bounded up and down a few times Bhe settled , and turning quietly round , gave the audience one of her sweetest smiles . Ta ' qngitforapartbf the play , they almost burst oft the roof of the little Chatham in thunders of applause . Since , this singular exhibition of elasticity , Mrs .

Modification of the New Poor Law . —Abandonment of the Sep aration System . —Renewal of Outdoor Relief . —On Saturday morning , pursuant to notice , a public meeting of the rate-payers and owners of property in the parish of St . Matthew , BethnalNOreen , met in the board-room of the workhouse , for , the purpose of declaring the names of the Guardians of the poor for the ensuing year . John Tidd Pratt , Esq ., of the Inner Temple , In the chair . In consequence of the excellent arrangements of Mr Pratt , who is returning ofilcer for this extensive pansli , which consists of upwards of 70 , 000 inhabitants , the expense consequent on a controverted election for Guardians was avoided , and the following gentlemen were unanimously elected : —Messrs .
ir £ r !? £ ne fr , f * iY Bowver > ^ nner , Coles , Kildy , Atkins , Till y , Mar 8 bafl , Norria , Unwin , Batchelor , Voundestrew , L a n t hers , Graves , Harford , Wire , and Bawl y . From statements submitted by Mr . Bestow , the relieving-ofiicer , it appears that the ¦ m vt Poor , Law is working well In this pariah . The inmates of the workhouse are allowed every indulgence that their several cases demand , and tne comforts of the very deserving poor are closely attended JS ^ i f . fpW * » . ™ gar , and every other nutriment ; neither are the women separated from their husbands , or the children from their parents , while all the terrors which , in other places are inflicted on . p overt y by confinement ! are m ibis parish , avoided , the paupers beins all < n ™ i
to go out on all reasonable occasions . Beside those inmates , there are 1 , 300 externals who are recipients of the parish to several amounts , from 16 a . to 1 b . 8 d . a week , according to the expenses of each applicant ' s cas ^ -one sick pauper is at this moment receiving 2 s . fid . a day . Several loans of £ ihave been granted to persons , on a p roper representation being made by th * m , that such loans would bo beneficial to them . It is qnita evident that there exists an honourable emulation amongst the rate-payers of the parish to do all in their power to mitigate the miseries of their less fortuu ate fellow-beinga , and that the latter feeir it , a s no t a s in g l e com p laint escapes the lips either of-the inmates of the workhouse , or of those who receive out-door relief . There is a curious fact connected with the introduction of lhe ^ SJf oorLaw ^ the parish . On the first week 4 , 000 paupers -anDlied for reliof . tk * no « = » .
ing Officors iustituted a frigid inquiry into the merits o , ! - the applicants . Thd | undeserviiig poor and idle , aware that they could not impose upon the officer *! did not repeat thoir claims , and on the following week only 2 , 000 demanded parochial relief . After the business of yesterday terminated , thanks were voted to the Chairmau , who , in acknowledging it . ^ JonMratulated th * parish _ on the successfut efforts that had been made in assisting the poor , and stated that during the past year the several Guardians had attended upwards of fifty-two meetings of the Board . It is but just to mention , that the Relieving Officer very kindly offered the parochial books ibr the inspection of our Reporter to prove that his statements were perfectly accurate . The humane and benevolent example of this parish should be a pattern for the Relieving Officers of certain other parishe 3 , towhom it may toe said , Gothou and do likewise . "—D ' upalch .
Skeleton op the Notorious Jonathan Wilds . —The skeleton of this notorions thief , as well as thief-taker , is now in the " possession of Mr . Fowler surgeon , of Sheet-street , Windsor . Dr . Thotaas , I highly-respectable medical practioner , ( whd posse s sod the skeleton at the time of his decease , in thistowa which took place thirty-two , years ago , in the 72 hcf years of his age ) studied under a surgeon named Brand , in London , the latter of whom , it is stated was onterms of intimacy with the Ordinary of Newaate ; at the time of Wilde ' s execution . Upon the ^ r ^ ffi- Th 0 . » Wa , son , Mr . Rendall , sucoe ^ ded to the business , and the skeleton , amongst Other thmgs , eanie into his posseesion . Mr . Fowler , upon the retirement of Mr . Rendall succeded to his
, business , and came into possession of thi skeleton in t . Blmilar manner . If there were any doubts as to I'JWmJ ?" *!? 9 u ^ on Veing the undouBted remains L i ^'^ f ^ * cflflia-plate , which is now 'affixed to the oaken-caw , in which the skeleton has been for upwards of a century . would set all ques-. tions on that subject at rest . The coffin-plate is of shin sheet iron , very mnch corroded with rust , nin e inches wide , and twelve and a half in length . The following inscription upon it , executed in the usual way , by means of a punch , is as clear and as legible ?? - £ wa h fi 8 t da 7 Jt was d « ne :- « Mr . Jonathan Wilde , Died May 24 th , 1725 , in ye 42 d year of his age , " The height of the skeleton , as it stands in case , is five feet five iuches : and several medical mm
who have seen it , have pronounced that Wilde Whin living , must have stood about five feet eight or nine inches . The skeleton is in a perfect state , with theexctpVion pfthe thumb of tho left hand , and pastor the foro ; fin « er of the right hand , which are missing . There are three teeth in the head , which are quite sound . Mr . Fowler , anxious to ascertain if the general character of Wilde , while living , was borne out by the phrenological development of the head , sent the skull , a few days since , to Mr . Devili e , the well-known Phrenologist , in the btwnd ; but , without giving the most remote hiai as to iho name and character of the party " whose shoulders it once fitted . " It has just been returned to Mr . Fowler , with , a " certificate" from Mr .
i ) evgle , of which the following is a copy : — " This is the ' skull of an individual possessing some useful tacume 8 for mechanical operations , going about and comprehending things readily ; but he is a singular duster , with a large portion of brain in the regioft Of the propensities . Aad under disappointment > f his own importance , pecuniary difficulties , or intoxication , he would be very likely to commit crime . He would he fond of offspring or children , but not > kind parent , as the mandatemustbe obeyed . He would be theassociato of female , and probably be a married man , but liable to jealousy , being a doubter df the integrity of others towards himself : and white in this state of feetiog , if aroused , he would be Lable to do injury to those 6 O offending mm , and if opposed , murder mi ght be the resuf from Bach an organization . He would be conceited , self-willed , and obstinate : and , if opposed in his own views , his Daemons
would run very high . He would , without much hesitation , appropriate to his own use the property of others ; but , in bo doing , show some ingenuity an ( cunning , it being difficult of detection . He would , at times , manifest Borne feeling for religion , ant mi ght follow some sect , and at times hold forth , upon the subject } but I doubt much the integrity upon it , being more to cover and screen the animal propensities . He wonld tea talker In his own societyr-a knowing and concerted individual . Hehashadsome notions of liiusic , and having some command of words , would be likely to become the songster of his society- « u <| h an . organization , preferring society wherehe _ could bebome the hero of a publio-house party . From the character of the bones , it appears to be tiie skull of an elderly man , whom I comider as having had the power . of becoming useful , bnt from the preponderancd of the animal , I consider him an aged Binner . " It will thus be perceived , by those who have read the life of Wilde , t hat the phrenological exhibitions are in perfect Jkeeping with the Bcoundrebsma of the man .

J / OOR-LAW DOCTRINB OF STARVATION . -A long document has been put forth under the authority of the Poor-law Commissioners , and sighed by the loo notorious "Edwin Chadwick , " apparently with a d e si gn to prove that there is no such thine as " starvation' m the land . It profe ? tea to be a reply to a letter from Mr . Farr , who had commented on the horrible fact of sixty-thjree deaths being asoribed to starvation alone in one half-year ; aud is chiefly remarkable for the ingenuity with which the Commissioners stave off the odium of starvation , whe t her chargeable on the working of the N « w Poor Law or on accidental causes . In i ' act , there is no convincing a commissioner that a man may be starved in this
happy country . Having made up their minds as to the impossibility of the fact , it i s not wonde r f u l that they should throw all the contempt they can on the evidence . Even partial starvation they deny , because , though a man may get but "half a loaf , " it cannot be said he gets " no bread . " A man may he hungry , but since union-houses are scattered all over the countr y , where he may get dry bread , if he wait long enough , he cannot be said to be starved outright . They forget that people may starve by degrees , that they may die by inches upon a toqC $ Hely graduated dietary scale , as well as in the streets or on the highways . It is wholly against the Poor-law creed to admit that any bod y can starv e , unless upon a totally empty stomach .
Distributing Socialist Publications at the Dooks of Churches . —A young man named John Frierson , appeared at the New Bailey yesterday , having been summoned under the 29 th George III . ' c . 79 , 8 . 35 , for distributing a printed publication without the printer ' s name attached to i t , b y which he rendered himself liable to a penalty of £ 5 . The Rev . H . Fielden stated that on Sunday last , a s he was going from St . Mary ' s Chur c h to t h e C o lle g iate Church , the defendant offered to put into his haad a printed paper : in , the first instance he refused to take it , but afterwards turned round and took it . Mr . Fielden produced the paper , which was an exposition of Mr . Owen ' s views on marriage . Mr . R . 8 . B . Cobbett , solici t or , who appeared for the
defendant , quoted a clause in an Act which , had passed last Session , requiring that no person -shall institute a prosecution for any penalty under the Aot unless he were deputed by the Attorney-General ; and the last clause in tho Act provided that the two Acts should be construed as ono . Mr . Maude said there must be a nonsuit : he was not previously aware that the Astpaaaed last Session extended to cases of this kind . Mr . Maude said , whether any r e asonable man could ap p rove of t he sen t iments in the paper , he was not going to say ; but it was an indecent thing to distribute a paper of that kind at church d oo rs , among parties whose opinions are the very opposite . The defendant said , he did it in answer to a misrepresentation whioh had been made
in a sermon by the Rev . Mr . Parkinson . Mr . . /> obett said , he trusted the case would not only be dismissed there , but that no further proceedings would be taken , Mr . Maude said , he should only decide for that day . The matter then dropped . —Manchester Guardian . A Modern Man of God . — . Amongst the many instances of priestly intolerance which have been played off before the public in different parts of the country we think few will exceed in effrontery some of the eats of a sectarian parson at present lesiding in Bingley . This gentleman , who has now been employed gome years in the capacity of a Christian minister in that town , has discharged the sacred duties of his office in such a manner as to render his
conduct the , theme of general conversation , as the following facts may well lead the reader to suppose : —A short time ago , one of his flock , a poor woolcomber , who had been a long time out of work , and had his wife at down-lying , went . to a prayer meeting , and , being what is called a leader in such assemblies , gave out part of a hvma , aud waa About « pray ,, wheto the reverend gentleman interrupted him by asking him if he did not owe a certain woman 3 s . On the man acknowledging that he did , t h e p ars o n told him , that he could not allow lim to proceed under such circumstances , and gave him to understand , that if there was no paying there would be no further praying . The man , who is a respectable honest person , and had been memiv
preven te d fr o m disch a r ging the debt through want of work , went home in consequence , and retired to bed , but could not sleep . Determined , at all events to place himself out of the charge of a debt so trifling , and to prevent the mind of the pious minister from being again shocked with the sin of owing 3 s ., merely through want of employment he carried something out of the house on the following day , and pled g ed it for as much as paid the debt . On hw return home , the wife asked him if the parson in his turn md paid him the shilling for the trout that he had sold him . On finding that he had not she advised him to go and get it . On making his appearance before the parson , and asking for the shilling
he appeared quite surprised , and wanted to know what it was for . The man said " for the trout I sold you some time ago . " " Oh ! said tho upright man , I understood you had made me a Dresent of it . " " How could that be " sa id the man , * whenyonasked me how much it was to bo , and I told you . " After a good deal of quibbling , t he p arson at last pulled out a shilling aud gave him i t , at the same time offering him twopence of interest , which the man refused to take . The parson then asked him if he had any other charge to make , when the man told him that although he had lost many a day ' s work to oblige him , in going with him to the houses of the rich , while his wife and family were starving at home , he would charge him nothing for itbut take
, care in future and bestow his time and services on a more grateful employer . He further informed the Rev . Gentleman that in all his travels with him to the houses o f the rich , he had invariably found him to bo the advocate of the rich , and the accuser of the poor . hia conversation running chiefly upon the extravagance of the poor in laying out their wages , and t heir proneness to complain of their superiors , who are kindly appointed by Providence to rule over them . Another feat performed noflong ago by this minister of the gospel deserves to be recorded . A poor girl came about selling some kind of tracts , and happened accidentally to call at his house . The servant girl was preparing dinner at the time , and , taking pity on her , said she would venture to giver her a putatoe
u sue went witnoue lessherself for it . The minister ' s daughter happened to be in the kitchen when , the potatoe ^ as given , and went and told her father of the deed . The reader might be led to suppose that a minister who taught a doctrine commanding its followers to deal their bread to the hungry , would hate commended her forgiving a houseless wanderer even a warm potatoe ; but such was not the case So far from following the example of his Great Master , whose countenance beamed with delight at the op p ortunity of doing good , this Christian shepherd came into the kitchen , with his face darkened with wrath , and asked the servant if she had had the audacity to give his property away without asking his consent . On the servant sayiBg that she had
^ onl y given a poor girl a potatoe , he called her an impudent girl , and said she '"" L ? 0 more " , * $ ' t ? . * ™ ? potatoe than anything else , and for doing so he Insisted upon her packing op her things and leaving his house immediately . This he compelled her to do , although he had promised to give her a month ' s notiee when he intended to part with her . He even went so far as to terrify the poor girl by threatening to send her to the ^ ock up , for giving away his property ; and w » believe he still oweB her some little matter of her wages . The attention of this liberal gentleman is now turned to another object , which appears tote giving him a great deal of unMSiness . This ^ is nothinfr less than the establishment of a bunday School by a number of young and middle aged per s ons , for teaching reading and writing none of the religionists of Bingley daring to teach the latter branch of learning on Sundays . The
school is constructed on the same plan as all the others belonging to the different sects . It is opened and closed with singing and prayer , and the instruction is reading from tho Bible and Testamentbut so scrupulous is the Rev . Gentleman in matters ' of education , as well as reli gion , that he boldly asserts that writing itself on a Sunday is rank infidelity , and its teachers real infidels . The school is , however , thriving surprisingly , in epite of all opposition , while the Rev . Gentleman has preached himself almost out of a congregation . In making the above statement of the conduct of this ffiffividuar there _ is no wish to wound the feelings of tWrespeotable body with which he is conneksted , but merely a desito to dieok an individual who is doing that body an injury , by his ungospel-like conduct . —Cor respondent .

The victim of the prisoner ' s brutality had been often beaten by the old harridan for not bringing home money enough , and had been ? twice confined in the hospital for her ill . usage . On - Friday night the prisoner went into a room where ' the girl was , with ftsalior who had lost his jacket . ' On demanding his property the prisoner began to abuse him , and accused the girl of stealing it . She then struck the girl with her clenched fist , and knocked her down three or four times . She then kicked her in various Darts of the body , stamped upon her , and lastly fe » l upon her body and corn * menced , biting her . She seized her ear with

Alleged Outrage by Soldiers at Blackburn . —An occurrence which has excited a good deal of conversation took place in Church-street en the evening of Monday last . It appears that some soldiers belonging to the tenth regiment of infantry now stationed in our barracks , had been drinking together until a quarrel arose among them , and o ne of them , an Englishman , was , we understand , rather sev e rely handled b y five or six of his companions , who belong to the sister kingdom . After a good deal of scuffling this man escaped from his fellow brawler s , and rushed into the shop of Mr . King , shoemaker , in Church-street . Mn . King was the onl y person in the shop at the time , and the man having appealed to her for protection , she permitted
him to pass through the shop into the house . Hardly had he disappeared when his pursuers entered the shop , and in very brutal language demanded that their comrade should be given up , threatening that if Mrs . King did not comply with their demand they would stab her , and one of them , we are told , p ull e d out a knife 'for the purpose of adding weight to his threat . Mrs . King became alarmed , and escaped through the door into the house , locking it after her . The soldiers attempted to break dowuthe door , and the noise made by them roused the attention of Mr . King , who was in a workshop at the back of the premises . He came round to the front door , and on attempting to enter his shop was refused admittance by the soldiers , who had now comolete possession of the place . Upon seeing the state of matters Mr . King hastened to the police-office ; and Mr . Burke , the superintendent , in iMT / tinu niiii
the instructions given for his directions in such cases , sent immediately to the barracks , whence a plcquefc was despatched , and the offenders were arrested and . placed in a dungeon , but not until they had come in , contact with the crowd collected before Mr . King ' s ^ remises , and inflicted sundry broken heads and orqises , with the sticks , &c , wherewith they were armed . An enquiry into the affair took place yesterday at tiie barracks , when Mrs . King identified three of the men very clearly as parties concerned ia the outrage . It was thought best to hand them over to the civil power , and they are now lying ironed in the dungeon , to be given op to Mr . Burke this morn * in g , and brought up b y him before the magistrates assembled in petty session . The names of the three men are Thomas Kerrigan , Timothy Connell , and Patriok Dowd . —Blackburn Standard .

BJ ^ mt ~ Ziuriaert' -wS < X ~ rfCtor Simard , appeared a few days bacj : before the Jum de Pair , under the following circumstances : —The former claimed from the latter eighty francs , and the Judge desired himto state the case . ' Lambert— -About three months ago I met Mr . Victor Simard at a place of fashionable resort— - Simard—A place of fashionable resort ! M y g ood fellow , it was at the Chaumiere . Lambert—None of your familiarity , I beseech you . I am no longer your friend . Simard—Uh , if you are going to get on your high horse
, we shall have some fun . Lambert—I again request you to cease your familiarity . Simard ( affectedly)—I beg your Grace ' s pardonj I meant no offence . I thought that a little familiarity would be excused between two young mea who had slept to ge ther , during three moathft , on the same truckl e bedstead , and who , during that space of time , had been devoured by the « a . n w fleas , and be e n fed b y the same economical broth . Lambert—You should blush in speaking of the past ! Simard—Blush ! and for what ! Is it because while we were living under the same roof I . made use of your purse with the laUser oiler which distinguishes the French student . Blush at doin *
that ! no , i n deed , I do not . It is you , on the contrary , who should blush at your present behaviour . You . are a downright dishonour to the mtartier Latin , and you will most probably be sent to Coven t ry by those studious , generous , and non-prudish youths who are { he principal ornaments of our hospitals , of Boluko ' s theatre , and the Prado ball-room . When I entered into this association , a joint-stock ; company with you , I own I did not possess wherewith to purchase a pinch of snuff , whereas your kind Parents supplied you with money Uberallj enough . Well , we put all this together ; nothing couldte fairer ; and now , after having had , during three whole months , the benefit of mv Aharminff
conversation and valuable company , yon have the meanness to bring in a long apothecary ' s bill . It is * scurvy action , and I disown and despise you . Come , let us go and drink a glass of bitters . The Judge ( to Lambert)—How do yon proye tne debt I Lambert—Very easily , Sir . In theCOUrseof thwe moiituB my father sent me 160 francs * This money was spent in housekeeping ; consequently , M . Simard owes me eighty francs . Simard—What a precise fellow you are I you calculate to a very farthing . But jit seems that you are in earnest ; so you wish to punish me for having bad better success with Fanny than you . Well , be it » . You'have made your bill ; it is my turn to make out mine . ¦
Lambert—But you never brought a farthing int * the concern . Simard—Trne ; with respect to : moriey-matterii you are usually correct . My father has a way of his own in paying his son ' s expenses in Paris ; but although I put no money into the concern- ' since I must speak the truth—I advanced my share in kind . The Judge—What do you meant Simard : Afewwordswill make the afikirquiteclear . My father is an honeBt farmer in the environs of Abbeville . When we had sDwut oar money ( Lambert grunted)—I beg your Grace ' s pardon—when we ha 4 spent hit money , I thought it would be no bad plan to have recourse to the auUior of my being , and con-Moovumu ntr

I agreed , and ! tookhi&mantle to my uncle * i . Before the week was ended the mantle was « aten . A mantle if digested wonderfully soon , I can assure yon .

By return of post an answer came—* Shall I send you any potatoes ! " I
consulted my mend , who advised me to accept . We accepted , and soon received two enormous sacks of this nutritive production . For five whole weeks we feasted on this vegetable , and eat them in every foriD and dressed them in every way , but principally plain boiled .: Bnt to terminate . After having allowed my companion to fill his belly for five weeks with my potatoes , I think it a very Btrange proceeding on his patt to reproach me for having made use of his purse He fed me , and I have fed him .
