A breeze full of balm from the west, O'er the face of a sleepy lake blowing; It ruffled a wave on the shore, And the stilftress to billows was broken; The gale left it calm as before; It slept as if never awoken.

Notwithstanding the great improvement made in the healing art, within the last few vears, this prottus disease, when excision and exterpation are neglected in the incipient stage, for the most part, baflles the skill of the ablest and most experienced of the medical faculty when treated in the usual manner with arsenical preparations. Respecting the composition of this invaluable medicine, it might be proper to state it is prepared from a vegitable in a very condensed form; yet so mild when found in its native situation, as to he eaten by graminivorous animals, with impunity, as

From its action beirg confined almost entirely to the diseased surface, it is incapable of producing those disagreeable effects on the constitution consequent to the use of arsenical applications; which from the action of this mineral on the sound as well as diseased part together with its general operation on the whole system, through the medium of the absorbents, must not unfrequently produce serious objections to its ue, admitting it to be a certain cure.

La Mott's Cougli Drops. Important Medicine for COUGHS AXD CONSUMPTIONS. rillHlS Elixir is not otferud to the public as in.gj fallible, and a rital to all others, but as pos

sessing virtues peculiarly adapted to the present pre-

vailing disorders of the breast and lungs, leading to consumption. A timely use of these Drops may be considered a certain cure in most cases of Common Colds, Cowgii, Influenza, Whooping-Cough. Pam in the Side, Difficulty cf Breathing Want of Sleep arising from debility; and in Spasmodic Asthma it is singularly clficacious. A particular attention to the

directions accompanying each bottle is necessary. The following certificates from respectable gentlemen, physicians and surgeons, are subjoined, to show that this composition is one which enlightened men are disposed to regard as etlicacious and worthy of public patronage. Having exfrnined the composition of Mr. Crosby's improvement upon La MuWs Cough Drops, we have no rr-sitatitm in recommending them to the public, as being well adapted to those cases of disease for which he recommends it.

For ten years I was afflicted with a pulmonary complaint my cough was severe, my appetite weak, and my strength falling I used many popular medicines, but only found temporary relief, until by a continued use of your aluable drops, I have been blessed with such perfect health as to render further means unnecesssafy. liev.

Directing her to remain retired, firm, and motionless, he siezed his gun with both hands at the muzzle and calmly waited the onset. The animal rushed fiercely upon him, and received, without noticiug it. a well directed blow from
