found a great ben IB by it But baring nothing
but my labour to depend on fora living, snd not
being able to work for a longtime, got so that I
was not able to pay for it. Some months after
this, I heard of a Mr. Shinn's having made s Pa.
nacea, stot.d to be the same as Mr Swaim’f. I
applied to him, and stater my case and circum
stances, and found him disposed to benefit me.
He gave me the medicine freely, and said I might
pay for it whenever I got able: and I found, by
taking th same quantity, as much benefit by it
as by Mr Swslm'v.
I have given this Certificate for the Vec fit of

Dr. Rush's answer to a similar enquiry.
I live so much like other people,' that 1
might refer to ordinary life as the history of
my own. Like my friend, the Doctor, I
have lived temperately eating little animal
food and that not as an aliment so much as
a condiment lor the vegetables, which coh*
stitute my principal diet. I double, how.
ever, the Ductor’s glass ant! a half of wine,
and even treble it with a-friend; but halve
itseflects ldrinking the weak wines only;
the ardent wines I cannot drink, nor do I
use ardent spirits of any kind; malt liquors
and cider are my table drinks, and my
breukfast. like that also of nvy friend, is of
tea and coffee. I have been blest with or
gans oi digestion which accept and concoct,
without ever murmuring, whatever the pa
late chunseb'tu consign to them, and I have
not yet lost a tooth by age,
I was a hard student until ! entered on
the business ol life; the duties of which leave
no idle time to those disposed to fulfil them:
and n nv, retired, and at the age of 76,1 am
again u hard student. Indeed my fondness
for reading and study revolts me from the
drudgery of letter writing, and a stiff wrist,
the consequences of an early dislocation,
makes writing both slow and painful. I am
not so tegular in my sleep as the Doctor
says he was,devoting to it ftom five tu eight
hours, according as my company, or the
book I am reading, interests we: ond I nev
er go to bed without an hour or half hour’i
previous reading of something moral,
whereon to ruminate in the intervals of
sleep i but whether I-retire to bed early or
la'e, I rise with the sun.—I use spectacles
at night, but not necessary in the day, un
less reading small prim. My hearing is
distinct in particular conversation, but con
fused, when several voices cross each other,
which unfits me Tor the society of the table.
I have been more fortunate titan my friend
in the article of health: so free from cata
i-rhs that I have not had one. (in the breast
I mean,) on an average oreight or ten years
through life. I ascribe this exemption
partly to the habit of bathing my feet in
cold water every morning for sixty years
past. A fever more than 24 hours I have
not had above two or three times in ‘ my
life. A periodical Lead ache has afflicted
me occasionally, once perhaps in six or
eight years, fur two or three weeks at a
time, which seems now to have left me t
and except on a late occasion of indisposi
tion, I enjoy good health—too feeble indeed
to walk much, but riding, without fatigue,
six or eight miles a day, and sometimes
thirty or forty. I may nd these egotisms,
therefore, as I began, by saying that my
life has been so much like that oi other peo
ple, that I might say, with Hcrace, to eve
ry one, “ Nomine mutato, naratur fabula,
de to.”
I must not end, however, ’without the
due thanks for the kind sentiments of re
gard you are so good as to express towards
myself, and, with my acknowledgments for
these, be pleased to accept the ussurance of
my respect and esteem.

of wine, and said, “Blessed art thou, O
Lord our God, King of the world, who has
created the fruit of the vine ” (The peo

Ire his name. Rabbi—"Biesscd- b j thou,
O Lord, who sanciifiest thy people by wed*,
ding and by marriage.” rcople—"Bles
sed be he, and blessed be hi# name.”
One of the Rabbies then took a ring and
put it on ttye finger of the bridegroom, and
then on the finger of his bride saying, “Ve
rily thou art espoused to me by this ring,
acc rding to the law of Moses ar.d of la-
reel ” A large shawl was then thrown o*
ver the new married couple, and tho Rabbi,
twice giving them wine to drink, said
’Blessed art thou O Lord qur God, King
of the world, who has created all things for
thy glory.” “Blessed art thou, O Lord
our' God, King of the world, who bus crea
ted man in thy likcnc&s, and hast prepared
for him andyrom him a house forever and
ever.” At the end of each sentence the
people responded, “Blessed bfc he and blcs
sed be his name.” Rabbi—“ Rejoice,
shout and be merry thou barren. Thou
wilt soon gather thy children about thee in
joy. Blessed art thou, O.Lord, thou that
makest jay tut Zion's children, l'hou
makest joylul with joy a lovely pair, as
thou didst make joyful thy crcalufe accord
ing to thy image in the garden of Eden of
old. Blessed art thou, O Lord, who re-
joiccst bridegroom arid bride l Ble&aed art
thou, O Lord our God, King of the world,
who hast created rejoicing arid, joy, and al
so bridegroom and bride. The voice of
love and affection, cordiality, peace. and
friendship, shall be speedily heard in the
cities of Judah and streets of Jerusalem—
the voice of rejoicing and the voice of joy
—the voice of the bridegroom, and the
voice of the bride—the voice of shouting
and of wedding days, and of marriage, and
of feasting days, and the voice of the mu
sic of youth. Blessed art thou, O Lord,
who makest joyful the bridegroom with the
bride, and makest them prosper.”
After this the bridegroom took the crp of
wine and tasted it and then gave to his
spouse. Both of them continued standing
during the whole service. Then the Rab-
bi said, “ Praise the Lord, for his mercy*
endureth forever. Joys shall increase in
Israel, & sorrow ?hall flee away,and it,‘shal!
be for a good sign.” As tbe Jews present
offered their congratulations to tbe bride
groom they said, “ A good sign ” Tho
nuptial torch was then extinguished, but
immediately lighted again, and the bride
was recon'ducted to her chamber by the
women with the soqr.d of cymbals.
While the Rabbies were performing the
service some of the people attended, to it
with great appearance of devotion, but oth
ers were talking, laughing, and walking
about the room. The Rabbies went through
the service in the hurried, indistinct man
ner, which seems to pervade all religious
services it) the East.

Account a J ewish Wedding at Cairo,
The gentlemen assembled in a large
apartment, in reality the court, but now
used as a parlor. We were seated on a
Divan at one end of the court, where tho
ceremony was to be, performed —Near us
stood a large wax candle, and from the
ceiling were suspended seven chandeliers.
Some of the candles were burning, though
it was not dark. All the Orientals have a
great fondness for burning of lamps and
candles in their places of worship, and on
all religious occasions. At the opposite
end of the court was a kind of gallery,
where tho bride was making preparation
for the ceremony, and in front of which
hung stripes of different colored paper,
red, pale red, and yellow, some of them co
vered with gold leaf. Now and then the
pride showed herself through the lattice or
wooden net work, which stood in front of
the gallery, it reminded us of Solomon's
So i g, 2, 9 —“ My beloved is like a roe, or
a young hart: behold he etandeth behind
our wall, he looked forth at the windows,
showing himself through the lattice.”
Abo t 5 o’clock the High priest^Rabbi
Mercado,) and five other Rabbies came iu
and took their seats on the Divan, and the
service soon commenced. First, the clerk
and the people repeated Hebrew the eigh
teen benedictions of the name ot God Then
the High Priest arose, and said, * Bicssed
are they who dwell in thy house: they shall
pra .se thee forever' The people responded
“ Blessed people whose G-xl is the L >rd.”
After this the evening prayer was said, in
which the name of G>.d occurs eighteen
timeB- Each time this name was repeated
tho Rabbies shsjok and trembled. After
this prayer the nuptial torch was iighud.
It was.a large wax candle, dividing it
self into nine branches, all of which were
burning. This was carried up to the gal
lery of the ladies, where the bride was wait
ir.g, the bridegroom'being ail the time a-
mong the geutlemen beloy. Boys then
began to beat bn cymbals, apd the bride
was conducted down stairs, covered with
a long white veil, preceded by ihree wo
men. with cymbals, and, led by two others.
Several, women also followed her, one oi
whom occasionally uttered a hideous shriek,
which we at first supposed a shriek o| dis-
-ires*, but were alterwarda told, if was an
wx^reasion of joy,

ought therefore always to ride t- v?gle anchor,
with their sails reefed, and slip buoy* on their
cables.
