F vgJ weii aw-tmniy.- . 00 extensively has it been used, and so often proved successful, even in difficult and apparently almost hopeless cases, that the proprietor feels no hesitancy in recommending it to any and all who unfortunately may h ive occasion to resort to some means of recovery. Physicians familiar with its effects prescribe it in their practice, and with the medical faculty geneially it has met with uncommon approbation. The following- remarks were taken from a recent number of the Medical Magazine : "The surprising rfTeet produced by the genuine Dr. Taylor's Balsam of Liverwort, made at 375, Bowery, in consumptive cases, cannot fail exciting a deep and thrilling interest throughout the world. We have so long believed this disease incurable, that it is difficult to credit our senses when we se persons, evident! v consumptive, restored to health. Yet it is a fact of daily occurrence." -The following certificate was given us lately by Capi. Scott, of Elizabeth city, N. C: "Being con stitutionally predisposed to consumption (a number ofrnj family having died of this disease) and hav ing suffered severely from irritation of the lungs, accompanied by couhs and raising matter and blood, together with a pain in my side and breast, till I was supposed to be beyond recovery, I was in duced by ad vice of Dr. Jerkins, as a last resort, to try Taylor's Balf am of Li verwo-t; I have taken 5 bottles in all. I began to improve after the Mist bottle, and while taking the third, was so far recov ered as lo be abie to get about since which time I am quite restored, and able to atUnd to my busi ness.

Snow, might have been seen leisurely pursu ing their homeward course. 1 hey truer been to Camden, uud were returning by what id now called ihe Lancaster road1. The after noon was picfty far advanced, so intrvh so that ihe rays of ihe netting strn could only he indistinctly seen on the tops of the tallest trees lhat skilled their way. The war being at a close, it was not con sidered necessary lo carry nrms, for it was time lhat " man should forget his brother mau lo slay;" hot there still icmained a few, who under ihe dark cur fa hi of crime, luirtcd about Ihe dwellings of the lories, either to pilfer or take their lives. lfeishing like a pack of greedy wolves upon a defenceless herd, armed with swords and pistols, came upon our heroes, who having nothing of tho kind, were compelled' lo seek delivetatice in the speed of their horses, and accordingly set off, urging their aniniaU to their utmost strength; but with poor Snow it availed nothing, for a ball from the pistol of one of the asassitis, told lhat it had done its wotk of death, followed by several blows from the Tarlelon-like Williams, who with fiendish exultation strikes the fatal blow which irshers a soul into the presence of II hn who gave it. Having despatched Snow, they now set off in hot pursuit of Ilickaon, whose horse became so much alarmed by the repot t of the pistol, that he soon left his pursuers some distance For a long time they are left behind, Inifslill persevering, they are gaining upon him, and evidently must oi'etlake him, which will re sult in his death ; but the strong arm of Hick son reius his horse iuto a thick pait of the woods, and night coming on, us if by Provid enco to save the life of a human being, he I lav- escapes the hand of a lawless Briton. ing urri.-cd where he considered hitnseW out of danger, he dismounted in order to test him self aud Wait till ail danger was over. Just at this moment of breathless auxicty, he heard the sound of their horses' feet, returning by tho road he had just left ; they found that he had giveu 'hem the dodge, and were reluming. When they were passing bv wbeie Ilickson was concealed, tho least noise would have discovered his hiding place, and sileuce was his only hope ; just here, his horse, hearing the sound of other horses, became very restive, made every indication, and would have ueigh ed, had not lhat presence of mind which is often atlbrded man in the hour of peril, led Ilickson to grasp firmly his horse's nostrils. Thus in a few minutes, John Ilickson was snatched, as if by supcihuman power, out of the faugs of sudden death. Ihe space ot an hour passed, ete he ventured forth from his hiding place. A little while and be was in the arms of his friends and relatious, ho had been kept in a state of anxious suspense, for it was later than he usually came home. But how can Hickson break the truth to a devoted sister? Alas, his couuteuauce but too truly tnlA that thfere waa something wrong.

I he result of this daring impudence, had such apoweifuJ effect upon Mrs. S4 - (for well she knew him to be William, the very wretch who rob- bed her of a kiud and affectionate broker), that it almost threw her into convulsions. Mr.' 6. happening to be iu at the time, and seeing this demon in -his house felt the ifsings of re venge kindle in his bosom: in an instant his" ruie was at nis snouicier anu aooui to oe di rected towards, the guihy murderer. But a voice rang ?n his ears,' saying "vengeance' is mine. I' wiU repay satlh the 1010." This5 brought him' to n pause, and a moment's re-, flection pictured to him the remorse he had escaped. . . ,. Sitting down beside Williams, he calmed his troubled" feeltbgs fo sucfr an : extent, as to' be able to pity htm, and persuade him to-"flce from the wrath to come." In repty, Williams only said, that he was sorry for having taken Snow's life, that he was a line fellow; but that he thought as a national animosity had exist ed between the two nations, that be wai jus tified rn the act. Mr. S. prayed for him in his he,rrt, and 110 doubt in this way ''heaped coals of fire upon his head." Would it not be well for us, cuen j, when' we see those who have injured us, to com mand our feertugs, in order to give them se riotr talking, aufT not cu'dgel them without consideration inethinks. if would bo far bet ter fbarr to' indulge in those angry passions which' God never intended wo should! Mr. S. has ever been since, to the dy of his death, thankful to that God who stayed his hand from shedding bloody for he well knew' "that conscience, which' rnalies cowards of us all," would have risen ftp in condemnation against him, and he would have been a vic- hhn 10' bitter remorse, which would' constantly hay'e sapj)cd trp all tho springs of peace anil happiiress,'nud he ap unhappy iriuu dwelling upou eatlit, whose charms,' like tho early dew aud' tho morning fiowc, would have disap pea'ted'aud withered ere he could have felt atiy earthly peace at alK Wo will hereafter ferret out and conclude the notice of William's caieer, iu the employ ment,' as Constable, at Camden, in attempting to take a rnati by viofent nioans, he was stab bed, and laid a bleeding corpse at! CV feet, and his soul hurried from time 16 eternity. Our incident must close we have said all, and have hewn that -'tho way of transgressors is hard." A conscroustiess of hs being lhr' truth' from a source undoubted, has flattered us thaf at least some wiM give it a reading, soino will give our hirinble incidtiul a hearing. No' white marble or regular burial ground marks the spot wtiere this youiig man' lies', nor little will ho care -'It they'll let hirri sleep on ill tho grave where His friends have laid hinf." A Quandary. Many a poof devil whoso character hat unjustly suffered, can bear testi mony to the following : " To' acquiesce uu dera report in silence," sailh Ti islam Shan dy, " is to acknowledge it openly at least in the opiniou oflialf the wbfld and' to make it bustle m donrradictln'f h, is tb'donfirrh it ai -strongly irr the opinion of the other half." The fact" is that society is as unreasonable as the Irish drummer conceived the soldier whbrrr he was flogging to be. " Strike higher," said' tbo floggee," as he fell the cat'-o'-nine-tails applied to the lower region of the backY " Sti ike lower," he cried, wlien ihe bloWs felf between the shoulders'. " O, 'pon, my sol," said the Itishinaii you' aro tho most unrea sonable man I ever saw ; let me strike wliero I will I cau'tplase you." Grumbm-?g: Three sailors were ' prepar ing for a' short excursion, when it appeared lhat one of the trio coold not spoil appropriate shoes and stockings for such a party.- Out ot the abundance of the others ho was' supplied, one furnishing shoes, the other' stockings.

"Come, blast you' critd he, "don't you kick my shoes all out on this sandy floor?" "Ob, come' Jack," satd the owner of ih9 stockings, iuterposing, " what did you waut to kick up a bloody rOw nod expose him for? Never yoirmind what he says Kilt kick bis -hoes to Madras, and dance in my stockings as long as you like !"
