Singular Disc overt. —Fr’*m the Baltimore
Clipper we learn the following -urfous fact, rela
ted by Wise, the aeronaut. It well known that
almost every one. on looking d iwn from a great
height feels aflected hy vertigo i-giddiness of the
head—and a sensation or sick ming insecurity.
But he avers, from repeated ex jerience, that this
only o curs when the iodivitlua .is sitting or stan
ding upon something connects -oUh the ground.
even if it he o.ilv by rope, nr any other slight
rornmiinicauen with the earth. But that entire
ly isolated from the earth, no si (di feeling or sen
sation can be experienced. -

HAMILTON’S ELIXER OF OPIUM,
A new and important Discovery.
IT has long been a great desideratum in Medtca l
Science, and has been the subject of a vas.
amountot Chemical experiment, to obtain theme
dicinal qualities of Opium to the ox lusion of it s
noxious principles and useless combinations. No
article in the whole range of the Pliarmacopaeia is
perhaps ot greater importance to mankind ; and
ivone which has engaged a greater share of chemi
cal attention. Every preparation hitherto made
from this drug, whether in the form of Extract,
Morphia, Black Drop, Para gone, or Laudanum,
contains in close combination a poison with the an
tid te, end lienee we find the administration of
them attended with a numerous train of evils,
among which are headache, lassitude, tremors,
nausea, vomiting, constipation,der. ngement of the
nei vous sy stem—and a quality wonderfully predis
posing the system 1 1 its habitual use: to obtain
therefore the Soothing Opiate and Anti-Spasmodic
Anodyne in all its virtues, separate from the dele
terious principles of the drug, lias for a series of
years engaged the profound attention of the author;
it presented itsell to his mind as a subject of great
magnitude; the acquisition to the medical faculty
oi so important a remedial agent, and the incalcu
lable amount of human misery that would be alle
viated by lire discovery, have been to him a sure
guarantee that he would reap a rich reward for his
labors,at. least in self-gratuiation. Having satis
factorily tested Hie Elixer in several hundreds of
instances, he lias now the happiness of saying to
the public that his labors have been crowned with
triumphant success. J. HAMILTON,M. D.

. ma. &c. This invaluable Medicine the
extraordinary property of immediately relieving
Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness, difhcu.ty of Liieat.iing,
and Huskiness in the Throat. It operates by dis
solving the congealed phlegm, consequently cans- ;
ing a free expectoration.
Those who are troubled with that unpleasant
tickling in the Throat, which deprives iliem of rest
night alter night, by the incessant cough which it
provokes, will, by taking one dwse,iiiij immedi
ate relief; and one bottle in most cases will elfct a
cure.
in Asthmas, Chronic Coughs, difficulty of Breath
ing, &.c., no pen cim describe the wonders that
have been performed by this invaluable Medicine ;
many, who fory ears have been unable to lay down
in their beds without a danger of being choked by
an accumulation ol phlegm, (wuich invariably
causes a dreadful cough), others, who with diffi
culty coul 1 breathe ai ail in a recumbent posture,
have, by taking one dose of this excellent Balsam,
been enabled to lay down comfortably in their beds.
But the testimonials of those who have experienced
its wonderful effects, will do more to recommend
and insure it the support of toe public than any
tiling the proprietor can say in its lavor, and by
particular request he has published the following
extraordinary case.

“THE MATERNAL FRIEND ”
IS one of those invaluable remedies that stands

pleasant, safe, and efficacious remedy for all the
sympathetic affections attendant on Pregnancy,
and all those periodical disorders to which both
married and unmarried females aic lia.de. Delicacy
forbids giving the details of its merits in a news
paper advertisement, but it may be stated that it
has been in use under various names —(The Philo
token, Mother's Relief, $c..J for some ten years
past, and wherever introduced, the demand for it,
(without the aid of “ putting,”) has been constant
ly on. the increase. This fact in evidence of its
real virtues, together with the belief tnal hundreds
of females are suffering from want of the know
ledge of a remedy adapted to their cases, induce;
the proprietors respectfully to call the attentioi
of sufferers to their pamphlets, which accompany
each bottle, and which may be had gratis of anj
