and fairness at the pit of the stomach, accompanying
Dypepsia and Liner Complaint. In Thematic, or pain

will be found to give immediate and permanent relief.
Persons who from sedentary habits, orother causes, an
predisposed to affections of the lungs, will find these
r.’-sters an effectual security against those pulmonary
attacks which prove but two frequently, (when lieglec'

an almost unfailing consequence of the sudden changes
to wnieh all are subject, every one at all liable to suffer
from the influence of these causes would find the great

To children suffering from lVhooping Cough, or
Colds affecting the ehesftor lungs, the sedative and ano

OPE —BY PR. JOHNSON.
O rhenbus! d.wn the western sky.
Far hence diffuse thy burning ray,
Thy liulit to distant worlds supply;
And wake them to the cares of day,
Come, gentle Eve, the friend of care,
C imr, Cvnth’a, 1 >ve!y queen of night!
Refresh me w i h a cooling air.
And cheer me with a lambent light:
Lav tne where o’er 'he verdant cro.-.nd
Her living carpet Nature spreads:
Where the green bower, with roses crown'd,
In showers its fragrant foliage sheds;
Improve the pearefitl hour with wine,
Xet music die along the grove;
Around the bowl let myrtles twine,
And every strain be tuned to love.
Come, Stella, queen of all my heart
Come, born to fill its vast desires!
Thy looks perpetuul joys impart,
Thy voi e perpetual loves inspiresi
Whilst all my wish and thine complete.
By turns we languish and we burn,
Let sighing gales our sighs repeat,
Our murmurs—murmuring brooks return.
Let me when nature calls to rest.
And blushing skies the morn fore'cll,
Sink on the down of Stella's brens',
And hid the waiting world farewell.

A VISIT TO GARRICK.
A letter from Sturz, now first translated from the
German.
London, August 24tb, 17G3.
I loft litis city early _\esturdny morning, uc
comjiauicil try Mr. Murphy, the draniat .st, on
u visit to the country scat of Mr. Garrick,
where I have past one of the most happy days,
of my life.
It was a most voluptuous summer morning.
A light, transparent vapor, such as we see .n
tho landscapes of Claud., trembled over the
fields, afid the face ctf nature was improved
by the veil. 1 felt as if I were born upon
ether. Every tiling around me was smiling
m delight. Such joyful feelings of existence
are enough to banish .:l the sophisms touching
the piedominance of ill in this good world.
T,a; dwelling of Gan iek is u little palace,
of beautiful proportions. It stands upon the
bank of the Tunnies, which here winds through
richly settled and elaborately orotmented gar
d ns. Ills garden, a- it is called, is hut a pint
of clean and verdant turf, scattered about
which, without regard to symmetry, is a vari
ety of shrubbery and trees. Near the water,
.stands the British Sanctuary, the Temple ol
Soukspearc. The siatuc of the Immoital is
of white marble, in life size. In tho expres
sion which the artist has given him, he stems
transported among the scenes lie has himself
created, and to be listening to the song of
Ariel.
Ttmi'c is little style or pretension in the in
terior of G.imck’s dwelling; but a serene, j
noble .simplicity pervades the apartments.—
Hero anil tlicre arc to-be seen objects which
mark the peculiar genius, and sometimes the
humor, of the possessor. The tapestry is nil
of light, soft ami agreeable colors, hung with j
excellent pictures of the most renowned actors
arid actresses, taken en role. Here are tire
four celebrated originals, by Hogarth, entitled
•* Tne Ejection.” A fifth, by tlie same mas.
ter, is yet more remarkable, h Was intended
as tlie first of a series of four paintings, to re
present the “Happy Marriage,” which was to
have becna counterpart to Ins renowned “Mar
riage a (urMode;” hut whether nature was
deficient in models for this subject, or tiie ar-j
tist in invention, Ido not know Only ois.'
of the p etures is commence I, and In this, the
head of the bride is alone completed. Ho
garth here shows himself to be a skilful paint
e of beauty. A more soft, lovely, and alto
gether attractive countenance, has seldom
lieen produced. I also saw Garrick’s portrait,
by our country-woman, Angelico K i ilmaun,
painted in gray ; and another on china, copied
fiom Reynolds, in which Garrick appears as
a distinguished Ciiincse. While amo :g the
pioductions of art, I must not neglect to speak
of a small box, made from tbe sacred mulber
ry tree, it) the shade of which Sbakspeare
was want to repose. This relic is exhibited
with the most devout emotion.
But you desire to hear something of the
man and of the actor. 1 shall not speak to
day, and perhaps never; for Professo* Licit
tenberg lias said all that can lie said on this
subject. You are already aware that Garrick
is a handsome man. It is true, he is not a
demi-go J in person, being a little below medi
um size; and he wants about a pied du Rot,
to realize the ideal forms of tho Greek nnd
Roman heroes, or what the French term, the
“ high tragic stature.” Yet bis figure is neat
and comely : full, without lieing fat; firm nnd
nervous. When he speaks, his whole body
is animated, and every play of his muscles,
every external movement, accords admirably
with his inward emotions. I think I have
never seen so expressive a face, or limbs which
waned more fullv nnd gracefully to participate
in his theme. While Previllon was once en
acting the part of a drunkard, to an a< miring
audience, Garrick cried out to Mm, “ Your
feet me sober.”
You observe, at fi.st sight, that gaiety,
tig jy ji| ftifeitv* ur;(!&<) with EH-itt hii uitv es
may imagine what entire control, and what
creative power, he must possess over iiis phy.
slogi uutv. to hide so completely such origin(h
stamps of iniiijtc, w'«n in his great tragic
characters; and still you must fail short in
your conceptions, unless yon know tlte mast
aud then see him as Lear, in the storm sect*',
or Ins fell.visage in U.e battle scene of Rich,
ani.
Garrick associate* with the first of toe land,
and is much Lonoicd nnd beloved by them.
Fortumitely for his friends, lie has not contract
ed that tone of tlie haul societe which fetters,
by conventional laws, tiie freedom and tbe glad
impulses of nature. This noble tree could
not Lo trail-formed intoa clipped garden hedge.
I le allows free play to his humor, and believes
that mirth and heartfelt laughter form the
grand elixer of life. The character of this
wit is shown in his epilogues and prologues,
wnieh abound in facetious contrasts, pleasing
equivoques, jeudemots and apt quotations from
t. e ancient and modern dramatists, or from
i his favorite poet, Horace. The qualities of
S his heart you may best learn from Ins epistola
ry eonCspondetico with Mi':; friends, where a
| i;oht, flowing style is the vehicle of tlie most
f noble fe< lings. He is prolific in anecdotes,
j nnd acts what he relates ; frequently convert-
I ing mere bagatelles into dramas. The sea
! turns ami voice of others are accurately reflect
led in his own. Here, too, we see something
lof that language of action, winch is so true
jto nature, mid so effective, in his great tragic
personations. I recently beheld ihe power of
j this silent language, in tlie dagger-sc-ena oT
.Macbeth. A gentleman who vvasin'thy com.
[may at the theatre, wholly unacquainted with
the English language, fell horror stricken and
sensek-ss upon the floor, while Garrick was
clutching the “ air drawn dagger of the mind-”
TEN.UPON ELEVEN.
We some time since related astory of a jock
red Fieuchman. As an ofF.et, we now give
one of a jock v trig Fienchman. This like tho
former, turns upon the scale of a. horse, and
also, hke that, has its scene away South. .(
Mon. Jarvais the Frenceman, had a steed
for sale, winch he recommended as ‘ one vet
fh;e hanimafe—one horse elegant extiaordin-

are.’ , ,
‘ How old do you call him 7—asked itie
purchaser.
‘flow old? said tlie Yy',
sate, he is someso i like ten upon elevef*,’
‘Not older?’
‘ No, sail', lie is no oldair vat I tell you.’
* On your honor!’
‘ Oui, sum, on lr.c Very scarce honor, vat
me telly you is the trute—he is no bide us ten
upon eleven : Me no cheaty you avee de nzgho
de horse. He is no more as vat I tell you.’
The hOrs:; was purchased, under the full
belief that he was no in tire than ten or eleven
years old. But tlie new owner was a short
time afterwards told, by a judge of horse fleslf,
that In: had got monstrously biittjn by tho
Frenchman in regard to the age of the steed,
which was at least twice as old as he had
purchased him for.
Upon ti ts he wont in a greut fury to tliu
Fo'iicliinaii, and exclaimed:
‘Confound your lying French tongiic! that
ior-c is twice as old as you said.’
•S,uc.’ exclaimed Mons. Jarvais, with well
feigned astonishment.
•Sure! IV! 85re yoh, you lying, smooth
loiigut and scoundrel.’
*Mehe ! Me one scundraft ! Vn't, tor you
accuse me, sare? ha ? You is one lie your*,
self—you is one grand'impudence. Be gar!
you come here to curse me for lie ! be gar!’
‘You nccd’nt bristle up to me,’ Monster, I
can eat up two Frenchmen just like you at one
meal.’
‘ D ahft’! Vat you eaty me—you one Dia
b!o ! dim ! You one savage—one vild animal'
brute—Le gar!’ ,
‘Them's no use in all that, Mottseer. You’re
a King viliian—\bu told me acock and a bull
story about the age of that horse which is all
no such tiling.’
Be gar! so’tis no such thing —’tis no bull
and cock, vat for me selle yon de horse. Sate*,
you Ip— .
‘What?’ | | *
‘ Under one mistake, sure—one grand mis’-
take.—l say nothing at all vat about a bull and
cock. I sell him you one horse for one horse.
Mon Dieu.’
* But you cheated me in his age, The horse,
as I am credibly informed, is at least twenty,
if not twenty-one years old.’
‘ Oui! oui—dat is de azghe —yes sare dat
is vat I call him ?
‘The devil it is ! You told me he was ttett
or eleven.’
* No; sure, I not tell you he ten or eleven;
Out is one grand mistake, sare. Dat leetle
void you |iut in, me no put him dere. Me say
dc horse ten upon eleven f
‘ Well, what’s tiie difference ?’
‘ D tference ! Be gar ! you one Anglisho
Americaiie, and you not know the difference
tell betwish one Anglish vord ? Or —he no'
upon—upon he no or. Me no Anglishe —but,
sare, dare one grand difference betwise de two
k etle void.’
* I know there’s a difference,’ replied the
purchaser, hut you meant to cheat me in the
age of the horse—you meant, ! should under
stand you, that lie was ten or eleven;’
‘Sare,’ returned the Frenchman coolly.
Mere is vcic you make de giand mistake. I
telly you de hot so he was ten upon eleven—
dat is vat n e understand ter. more eleven—vat
von call one ana de twenty. 5
‘But you meant to deceive me,’ Said tlie
nurehnsrr, doggedly.
* Peceivy you! Mon Dieu! Me dcceiry you
one Amenoaoio Yankee, vat client de diahle.
Be gar. Me sell honest heirse for vat you call
ion and do twenty : me no can pbssehle cheat y
iou. Bo car; s t's no de carl vat you but de
iior-e afore; de honest nzgl.e of de horse j<
vot I telly you ; ten on eleven ! nnd, begat !
