So says J and'though Shakespeare, in ^■^^■•nt of more modern times, changes that rustic covering for the Royal tapestry, yet it was even as Saws Grammaticus relates it. In those ve ages, straw, hay, or rushes, stiawed on the floor, were the usual carpets in the ohktabeie of the great. One of our Henrys, in making a progress to the north of England, previously sent for ward a courier to order clean straw at ev ery boose where he was to take his lod gings. But to return to the subject: The l’rince, suspecting there might be a concealed listener, and that it was the King, pursued his wild and frantic.acts, hoping that by some lucky chanoe, he might discover his hiding-place. Watch ful of all that passed in the loom, as he dashed from side to side, he descried a little movement of the nneasy courtier’s cover ing. Suddenly Hamlet sprung on his feet like a cock, and flockering his arms against his sides, leaped upon the straw ; feeling something under him, he snatch ed out his sword and thrust it through the unfortunate lord. The barbarism of the times is most shockingly displayed in the brutal manner he treats the dead body; but for the honor of the Danish l’rince, we must suppose it was not merely a wan ton act, but done the more deoidcdly to convince the King, when the strange situation of the corpse was seen, how ab solutely he must be divested of reason.— Being assured he was now alone with his mother, in a most awful manner he turns upon her, and avows his madness to be assumed ; he reproaches her with her wicked deeds and incestuous marriage and threatens a mighty vengeance upon the instigator of her orime. In the historian, wc find that the ad monitions of Ilamlet awakened the con science of the Queen, and recalled her to penitenee and virtuo. The King, ob serving the ohange, became doubly sus picious of the Prince; and baffling some preliminary steps, he took to vengeance. Hamlet was entrapped by him into an embassy to England. He sent along with him two courtiers, who bore private letters to the English monarch, request ing him, as the greatest favor he could oonfer on Denmark, to compass, by se cret and by sure means, the death of the Prince as he landed. Hamlet, during the voyage, had reason to suspect the mission of his companions; and, by a stratagem, obtaining their credentials, he found the treaeheroua mandate, and, changing it for one where he had ordered the execution of the two lords, he quiet ly proceeded with them both. On land ing, the papers were delivered, and the King, without further parley, obeyed what he believed to be the request of his royal allay; and thus did treason meet the punishment due its crime. The daughter of the King being charmed with the person and manners of the foreign Prince, evineed such marks of tenderness that Hamlet could but perocivo the depth of the conquest. He was not insensible to her attractions, and receiv ing the King’e assent in the oourse of a few days, lad her to ths nuptial altar.— Amid all the joya, he wae, however, like a perturbed ghost that oouid not rest; and before many suns had risen and set, once more Mt-sail, ead appeared at Elsi nore just in time to be a witness of the splendid rites which Fengo (supposing (r AT E-CITY' (J-r A R D I'AN > him to tic murdered) had ptepared for his funeral. On the proclamation of his arrived, he was welcomed with eenthuiasm by the people, whoseidol he wai and who had been overwhelmed with grief when Fengo announced to them nil sudden death is England. gjt The King, inflamed with ho ruinous a disappointment, and becoming doubly jealous of his growing popularity, now af fected no conciliation, hut openly mani fested his hatred and hostility. Hamlet again had recourse to his pretended mad ness, and committed so many alarming aots, that Fengo, fearing their direction, ordered his sword to be locked in its seal- hard, under the plea of guarding the lunatic from personal harm. Alter va rious adventures the Prince ace»mpli«hed the death of his uncle’s adherents and vengeance on the fratricide himself, by setting fire to the palace during the be- bauch of a midnight banquet. Rushing in amid the flames, he kills Fengo with his own hand, reproaching him at the moment with his murder, adultery and incest. Immediately on this act of re tribution he was proclaimed lawful suc cessor to the throne, and crownedjwith all due solemnity. Thus far Shakespeare treads in the steps of the annalist. The only difference is in the fate of the hero; in the one he finds a kingdom, in the other a grave. Suxo- Qrammaticus carries the history further; and, after the crowning of Hamlet as King, brings him again into Britian, where, in compliment to that land of beauty, he marries a second wife, the daughter of a Scottish King. Hamlet brought both liis wive* hack to Denmark, and prepared for a long life of prosperity and peace. But the sword hung over his head ; war burst around him, and he fell in combat by the band of Vigelotes, son of Ruric Saxa- Grammaticus sums up his character in a few words: “ He was a wise prince and a great warrior.” Hike Achilles, he had the principal actions of his life wrought on his shield. The daughter of the King, of Scotland, casting her eye on it, loved him for the batth s lie had won, and became his bride. Removal. M BA. A.

P. SKELTON, Oet. «, IMO—Soi Ordinary. MISCELLANEOUS. Taa Amalgamation or Lasouaobs.—There is e growing tendency in this age to appropriate the uioet expressive words of other languages, end altar awhile to incorporate them into ourl own j thus the word Cephalic, which is from the Greek, signifying "for ths head," is now becoming popularised in connection with Mr. 8paldiug"a great Headache remedy, but it will soon be used in a more general way, and the word Cephalic will become as common as Elec trotype and many others whose distinction as foreign words has been worn sway by common usage until they seein "nativeand to the manor J horu." ^ 'ardly Realized. Hi 'ad ’n 'orrihle ’eadache this ha Iter noon, baud I stepped into the hapothecaries, band 8>iy$ hi to the man, "Can you hcase me of an ’eadache ?" "Does it bacbe ’ard/'says ’e. "Ilex oeedingly," says hi, hand upon that ’e gave me a Cephalic Pill, hand ’pon me ’onor it cur- a ed me so quick that I ’ardly realised I ’ad an s ’eadache. ^ fcvJT IIsadachb is the favorite sign by which nature makes known any deviation, whatever, from the natural state of the brain, and view ed iu this light, it D'ay he looked on as a safe guard intended to give notice of disease which might otherwise escape attention, till too late to be remedied; and its indications should never be neglected. Headaches may be classi fied under two names, viz: Symptomatic and Idiopathic. Symptomatic Headache is exceed-l ingly common, and is the precursor of a great variety of diseases, among which are Apoplexy,! Gout, Rheumatism, and all febrile diseases.— Iu its nervous form it is sympathetic of dis ease of the stomach constituting sick headache, of htpatic disease constituting bilious headache, of worms, constipation and other disorders oi the bowels, as well as renal and uterine affec tions. Diseases of tha heart are very frequent ly attended with Headaches; Anemia and Plethora are also affections which frequently occasion headache. Idiopathic Headache is also very common, beiug usually distinguished by the name of nervous headache, sometimes coming on suddeuiy in a slate of apparently sound health, and prostrating at once the men la I and physical energies, and in other in stances it comes on slowly, heralded by depres tion of spirits or acerbity of temper. Inmost instances the pain is iu the frout of the head, over one or both eyes, aud sometimes provok ing Vomitiug; under this class may also be named Neuralgia. For the treutment of either class of Headache the Cephalic Pills have been found a sure and safe remedy, relieving the most acute pains in a few minutes, and by its subtle power eradic ating the diseases of which Headache is the unerring index. Bridget.—Missus wants you to send her a hex of Cephalic Glue, no, a bottle of Prepared Pills—but I'm thinkiuc that’s not just it uai- ther ; but perhaps ye'll be after knowing what it is. Ye see she’s nigh dead and gone with the Sick Headache, and wants some more of that same as relaived her before. Druggist —You must mean Spalding’s Ceph alic Pills. Bridget.—Och ! sure now and you’ve sed it, here’s the quarther and give me the Pills and dont be all <iay about it aither. Constipation or Costiveness. No one of the “many ills flesh it heir to’’ is so prevalent, so little understood, and so much neglected as CostiveDess. Often originating in carelessness, or sedentary habits, it is regarded as a slight disorder of too little consequence to excite anxiety, while in reality it is the pre cursor aud companion of many of thet most fatal and dangerous diseases, and. unless ear'y eradicated, it will bring the sufferer to an un timely grave. Among the lighter evils of which coetiveness is the usual attendant, are Head ache, Colic, Rheumatism, Foul Breath, Piles and others of like nature, while • long train of frightful diseases, such as Malignant Fevora, Abcesses, Dysentery, Diarrhoea, Dyspepsia Apoplexy, Epilepsy, Paralysia, Hysteria, Hy-I pochondriaais, Melancholy and Icsanity, first indicate their presence iu tin system by this alarming symptom. Not unfrequcntly the dis eases named originate in Constipation, but take on an independent existence, unless the cause is eradicated in an early stags. From all theae considerations itfollows that the disorder should receive immediate attention whenever it occurs, and no person should neglect to get a box of Cephalic Pills on the first appearance of the complaint, aa their timely use will expel the insiduous approaches of disease and destroy this dangerous foe to human life. Grkat Discovert.—Among the most impor tant of all ths great medical discoveries of thii age may be considered the system of vaccina tiwu for protection from Small Pox, the Cepha lie Pill lor relief of Headache, and the use of Quinine for the prevention of Fevers, either of which is a sure specific, whose benefits will be experienced by suffering humanity long af ter their discoverers are forgotten. NervousHeadache By the use of these Pills the periodic attacks of Nirvous or Sick Headache may be prevented; and if taken at the commencement of an at tack immediate relief from pain and sickness will be obtained. They seldom fail in removing the Nausea and Headache to which females are so subjeet. They act gently upon the bowels,—removing Oestiveness. For Literary Men,Students, Delicate Females, and all persons of sedentary habits, they are valuable as a Laxative, improving the appetite, giving tone and vigor tc the digestive organs, and restoring the natural elasticity and strength of the whole system. The CEPHALIC TILLS are the reeult of Ions investigation and earefully conducted ex periments, having been in use many years, during which time they have prevented and relieved a vast amount of pain and suffering from Headache, whether originating in the nervous system or from a deranged state of the stomach. They are entirely vegetable in their compo sition, and may be taken at all times with per fect safety without making any change of diet, and the absence of eny disagreeable taste renders it easy to administer them to children.
