BY CHARLES LESTER. There is no time in any clime, That should be unemployed ' * An active mind will ever find’ There’s nothing dull and void, . All things that live, some charms will give, If sought without delay ; . From year to year I seem to hear This truthful voice of wisdom say Waste not a moment ! - The singing birds, in simple words, An ever truthful lesson tell, That indolence by no pretence, Can fill our earthly mission well. Go, watch them work, they never lurk In indolence about, Throughout the day, you’ll find that they While the light of day is out, Waste not a moment! If at your ease, your mind would please, » Let not the time be wasted, But take a book, and through it look, • And when its sweets you’ve tasted, Peruse it well, and on it dwell, And find some truthful lay To feed your mind, and then you’ll find The voice of Holy Truth to say 1 Waste not a moment! Heed not mankind, who are so blind To look but at the covers ; Like maiden’s fair, who only care For the appearance of their lovers; But search for truth, aspiring youth, . “’Tis always worth your finding,” j My plain advice is small »n price— You’ll find it ’neath the binding— Waste not a moment! In every hour we have the power To do some Utile good; : If we a neighbor help to labor, ’Tis only doing what we should ; For we were sent with the intent, Upon this fertile land ; Man and brother, help one another, i For’tis (by God’s command, Waste not a moment ! > r Curiosities of Medical Literature. — We find in the Washington Republic of the 26th ult. the following chirographic portraits, illustrating the literary attainments of some of the sons of Escalapius in New York. It is an extract from a letter dated July 24. from the latter city: In one sense an amusing, but in another and , more important pointof view, a significant and alarming illustration of the state of medical i science in this great metrupolis has just been given by some industrious reporter for one of the city papers—the ‘ Sun.” A certificate stating the cause of death, with other par ticulars, such as the age and birth-place of the deceased, is required before the remains of persons dying here can he interred. This re porter has taken the pains to inspect a number of these documents on file in the office .of the City Inspector, and publishes some of the most original. 1 annex a few for the benefit of your readers, copied verbatim et literatim. Mr. John Louch, twenty two years old son of Mr. Philip Louch grocer in the 16th street East died yesterday 13th of this month by five y o’clock in the afternoon and was aitended by me on the cholera. L. Lambert. This may certify that Dick Ryan died this day at No. 96—East 11th street of Cholera born in Ireland aged 45 D. D. Marios. Citty of New York July 20th 1849.

Given under my hand. Jacob S. Miller, M. D. I hereby certify that Thomas McDermott, aged forty five years native of Ireland died at 3 A. M. while under my professional charge with cholera. John C. M. Van Boren, M. D. Now. this is really a melancholy ezpose. It affords abundant evidence that the health of large masses of the people of this city is in the hands of physicians of very singular literary attainments, and it is not a hard or unreasona ble thing to infer that the professional man who cannot exoress himself with some degree of precision approaching that of a boy at one of the public schools, cannot have been sub jected to that degree of menial discipline which warrants ary confidence in their medical ca pacity. This is no trifling matter. In all our large Atlantic cities there are large numbers of quacks, chiefly foreigners, German and Irish, who set up as medical practitioners, and doubt less contribute largely to swell the bills of mor tality at such seasons as the present. Then, again, there is an immense quantity of spuri ous and adulterated medicines sold in the drug shops At this moment the epidemic now pre vailing is most violent all along the East River above Grande street —a quarter of the city densely populated by the working classes, and in which there is hardly a dozen safe apothe caries.
