" . To those who boast a honest name , } onr censure ' s praise , your praise is blame . " WE respectfully request the attention of the Public to the real question between the Tea Hawkers and ourselves , which Hawkers , instead of meeting the question boldly and fairlv , have descended to tbe most wretched abuse and abominable personalitie ? , ( as witness their last rejoinder . " unexampled in its kind ) ending with a mo ? t flimsy challenge of no interest whatever to vou , viz .. "Whether thev sell more than One Chest of Tea to our Twenty . . j > Not one of our principal statements have yet merwith a reply or satisfactory answer . Are they other than we have described them ? "Do they sell Cheap ? " If this has not been satisfactorily proved , we repeat what we said m the original Advertisement— " Do not buy our Teas , and ours alone purchase of others , and see who supply the best . Buy the Black and Green separately . Do this for three months ; and if you find no saving m price or quality , continue to . patronise the Hawker and his Pack to the end of your days . . Now , is this the language of the Hawkers ? Are not their statements calculated , by their gross personality , to lead you from your interest in the question of Hawking Cheap or Dear Tea P ' The second sight of the wily Scot who penned the rejoinders , must either " have gone " bock again" or ^ lewitehef him . when he attributed " The Northern Locust and hi ? Dupes" to George Thompson as he never saw it until in pr int . We glory in that " exposure" of Tea Hawking , for which they say " are to blame ; ' for we did keep within the bounds oitruth as wel ! as reason , in exposing the unprincipled arts of the craft on their dupes .

That great and exalted medical character . Abemethy , hesitated not to declare , that all diseases were to be cured , or greatly alleviated , by an observance of diet alone ; and none more than himself pronounced , as ignorant and absurd , the condnc-t of mnst of his medical brethren ; he treated with contempt their ridiculous notions of health and disease —? aid they were mist of them ro < rae ? and fools ; and the world is well acquainted to tbe extent he went , when he did prescribe a medicine ; £ nd the simplicity of his injunctions upon all occasions when disease presented itself under anv form'Bead mv book "—' Blue Pill at nisht '—' Dranehi
