misfortunes. Who* is lie that has walked forth at early dawn amid the stillness of the country, but has felt a mental and physical renovation ? He inhales the freshest air of heaven—treads his mother earth in its pure and healthful condition—scents the gale breathing odours, and looks abroad over the vast field of earth, sprinkled with the beauti ful emblems of its maker’s love! While he pauses upon some green hillock, to survey surrounding loveliness, he finds himself lost in the sweet, delicious stillness, which reigns universal: it is not the stillness of the grave, for that is clothed in melancholy: it is not the stillness which precedes llie storm, lor that foretells destruction: it is not the stillness of grief, lor that is full of agony: but it is the stillness of nature, which is music itself; it is the hushed silence of a world, whose eves are just opening from a long and sweet repose : there is a stillness, vet every object a round, ani mate and inanimate, seems to speak audibly! In such an hour, and on such a spot, stands mortal man as he should ever he, the thought ful, fearful student of himself! For a while he forgets the world and communes with his own spirit; if he moves his step is timid and noiseless; and lie startles at the sound of his own voice! hut the music of birds, the low ing of the herd, and the merry whistle of the plough-boy, awaken him from bis reverie, and he finds that he had but fallen asleep up on the innocent lap of his mother earth, whilst tier lullaby had charmed him from the lollies of life. Delicious Spring, how salutary thine influence upon the human mind! The phys ical advantages, too, are equally delightful. See yonder sportsman, as he spurs his fleet charger over hill and dale, and “winds his mellow horn’—the inspiration of the chase flushes his cheek, an occasional glance of the bounding deer enkindles the fire of his eye, his blood is stirred anew, and courses with a fresh impulse through his veins, and he re- turns to the avocations of busy life with re newed energies ; his step is quicker, his head clearer, and il he be a lover of nature, his heart is purer. All hail, then, pure, gentle* delicious Spring! thine hand doth smooth the wrinkled brow of care, Iby voice of sweet mu sic doth cheer the heart, and thy presence is the elixir of renovated life. Winter hath ab dicated his throne, cast aside his gloomy man tle, an l bowed his head to the beauteous queen of flowers, as she comes dancing over the verdant fields of the opening season. Who has not felt, who does not feel, the most pleasurable sensations, on leaping from the icy arms of winter, into the luxuriant lap of Spring! The rude blasts of December have died away, and the soft, seductive whis per of an April zephyr salutes the ear. As the bird just freed from its cage, soars with a new fledged wing to its native element, so leaps the spirit of man at the dissolution of winter and the birth of Spring: the grave and solemn is exchanged for the gay and live ly, gloom yields to sunshine, and the fire of youth burns brightly on the altar, of age. The lieaveo is soft and mellow—the sun hath not yet gathered his fire and strength—the ■ - moon looks modest and pure as maiden inno cence, and the stars, beaming mildly as the eye of woman -when infant love attracts her gaze, twinkle modestly but bewitchingly on the clear, chaste curtain of night. How love ly, how charming the season of Spring ! For the Sentinel and Herald. TO THE VOTERS OF TALBOT COUNTY. Flli.ow Citizens : In ilcclining to yield to your solicitations to be a candidate for the Legislature tire present year, I feel assured you will not ascribe it to a want of zeal in the cause I have sup|rorted for the last twenty years of my life. Indeed all (he political oc currences of ‘.lie day tend more and more to strengthen my faith, and increase my devo tion to those glorious principles of democracy laid down hv the apostle of liberty, and suc cessfully practised upon and carried out hv our late venerable Chief Magistrate} and his patriotic successor, the present Chief Magis trate of this nation, will sustain those princi ples, and triumph over the combined powers of that unholy alliance, Bank Aristocracy, Whigisru, Abolitionism, &c. if the virtuous, patriotic yeomanry of the country stand firm, and maintain the republican doctrines of (heir sires. The time has come when no half-way men Should enter the councils of the country- We recognize no half tv at house, but take it for granted that those who are not for us are against us, and We had best have no com munion with them. We have those among us Who are good and true, and si ch a ticket will be offered you, as will, I trust, be accept able to all the Democratic Republican Party* The frequent evidences afforded me of your confidence and friendship, fellow-citizens, inspire me with a deep sense of gratitude, and I shall cherish these feelings to the last day of my life, and though n:y domestic duties and oilier considerations urge me to abandon pub lic. life, I shall ever be found aiding and abet ting in the cause of our beloved country. Your Fellow Citizen, JAMES L. Blinks. For the Sentinel amt Herald.- M Essne. Eimtors : We perceive from an Editorial : in the last Columbus Enquirer, that the Editor of that i paper has taken tire at certain Resolutions, passed al | a Republican Meeting lately held in Harris county, i and without mercy or measure has hurled his thunder- 1 bolts upon all who participated in said meeting. Now i either the Editor of the Enquirer or ourselves have ; been exceedingly unfortunate til translating the Resolu- 1 tions in question ; for according to ortr understanding \ of them, they contain nd such charge and wi 1 admit of; .no such construction as that placed upon them by those ,who seem to have been oll'ended by them. Hut junce a wrong interpretation, as we think, has been gi ven them by some, we feel it our duty, to state, so as t'obc iindersUtod. what tros not and what ti ns the mean ing of thegn, in the opinion of those who acted upon We say thep that it never e Meted the blind of any one', neither the drawer of the Resolutions, nor those who voted for them, to make the charge, which some have inferred, ?ga,’pst the State Rights Party cither in Georgia or any where e sc. And w ictl the object of •the Resolutions is once understood, no such inference, we believe, can be drawn from them. Where is the charge against th* State Rights Party? There is none. They have m reference to the long established and well known partv distinctions in Georgia. The first Resolution, which seems to have given offence, defines mlern whiz ism ; and where, we would ask, has the term whiz generally obtained, awl to what party has it been applied ? Certainly no party in Geor gia has gene ally tv’en designated by the term whig. ft refers then to that parly at the north every where known and designat'd as the IVliiz Party ; and ** hich party, if we. do no; greatly err, is such a combination as the Resolution in question contemplates. It will be observed also that the Resolutions have reference to the coming Presi len’ial Election, and to the great ques tion which must ere long come before the people. Bank or no Bank, a question, as we think, which will decide who arc Federalists and who Republicans. It is well knrwn too that this Northern A\ hig Party is already in the field and rallying its forces for the next Presidential Campaign. a* t! that they have two prominent candidates now before the people, upon one of whom they will finally settle down as a fit person to wield the sceptre of Chief Magtstr te. It is well known toot Vat thes: candidates, Cfni/ and H’VVffr,are in favor of what ice call Federal doctrines, a Tsuhnna’ Bank and a protective Tariff; and it is also well known they will be the favo ite candidates of the Abolitionists, and whatever may be their feelings towards that party, it ii sufficient to create a tuxpicion when we see the Fanatics almost to a man rallying around them. And those who support the oamr candidate with them, will, in our opinion, at least, like poor Tray, be found in bad company. The Bank party of this State has not as yet general ly committed itself for any candidate for the Presiden cy ; yet the signs of the times seem to indicate that Clay will be their man.—He is the candidate of the IVhi* party. Are we correct then, in supposing that those who oppose the present Administration, are en couraging the claims of Mr. Clay? and are we c rrecl then, in supposing, that those who support JHr. Clay , would in any wav, aid and suppor whigism ? “To a man up a tree” it would look very muen like it. Su di was the issue contemplated by the Resolutions. Nothing more, nor less. The Editor of the Enquirer seems to be ignorant of what part of the Union Party was represented in the Harris meeting. We can perhaps give him some light upon that subject; and would inform him that a large and respectable portion of that party was present and voted for the Resolutions, and saw no treason in them, as they undersood them. They are not responsible for the misconstructions of others. ’ And we would further inform the Editor that “school bovs” in Harris, boys of the old Jeffersonian school, know that a great portion of the State Rights Party of Georgia “ ill subscribe to the principles contained in those resolutions, not as dis torted from their true meaning, but when taken accor ding to their import when rightly understood. We are not so much surprised, however, that the redoubtable Editor, who, on a former occasion, could charge the Harris boys with cowardice, would by this time be pre pared to call them by other hard names, and even brand them as “ traitors!” We know that, since the last fall elections, the gentleman has been peculia'ly crabbed and ‘‘awful xpiteful” towards Republicans on a ! l sides. But we were not a little surprised to find that a por tion of ihe State Rights Parly <>f Harris had also so far miscons rued our Resolutions as to give occasion for a respect ab'c number of that party to hold a meeting at XV hifesville, at which Resolution were passed and or dered to be published in the Columbus Enquirer. We think, however, that they went tort far rtut oftheir way, in making, as we believe, an ungenerous and uncalled for a’taek upon the “ Author*’ of the Resolutions of the Harris Meeting. Though not a native of Georgia, yet we know that his feelings and interests are identi fied with those of his adopted state, and that in defence of its institutions, he is ready to “do battle” even unto death. We know too that his talents natural and ac quired, are such as to entitle him to an enviable rank in any eominitni ▼ ; and we cordially welcome him a mong us as one capable of doing good service in a good cause. We think that these remarks sufficient to sat isfy all, that our Resolutions were misconstructcd and that no offensive charge was intended to be made up on any party or upon anv indiv'duals. MANY REPUBLICANS. THE TEMPLE, ■AND THE DARKNESS AFTER THE CRUCIFIXION. Os all the labors of human wealth and power devoted to worship, the temple within whose courts I then stood was the most mighty. In my after years, the years of mv unhappy wanderings, far from the graves of my kindred, I have seen all the most famous shrines of the great kingdoms of idolatry.— Constrained by cruel circumstances, and the stili sterner cruelty of man, I have stood be fore the altar of the Ephesian Diana, the master piece of lonian splendor; I have stray ed through the woods of Delphi, and been a reluctant witness of the superb mysteries of that chief of the oracles of imposture.— Dragged in chains I have been forced to join the procession around the Minerva of Acropolis, and almost forgot mv chains in wonder at that monument of genius which ought to have been consecrated only to the true God bv whom it was given. The tem ple of the Capitoline love, the Santa Sophia of ‘he Rome of Constantine, the still more stu pendous and costly fabric in which the third Rome still bows before the fisherman of Gal lilee; nil have been known to my step, that known all things but rest; but all were dreams and shadows to the grandeur, the dazzling beauty, the almost unearthly glory of that temple which once covered the “ Mount of Vision” of the city of the Lord. At the distance of almost two thousajsd years, I have its image on my mind’s eye with living and painful fullness. > I see the court of the Genillea hireling the whole ; a fortress of the whitest marble, with its walls rising six hunered feet from the valley; it* kingly entrance worthy of the fame of Solo mon ; its innumerable and stately dwellings for the priests and officers of the temple, and above them, glittering like a succession of di adems, those alabaster porticoes and collo mdes, in which the chiefs and sages of Jeru salem sat leaching the people, or walking, breathing the pure air, and gazing on the grandeur of a landscape which swept the whole amphitheatre of the mountains. I see rising above the stupendous boundary, the court of the Jewish women, separated hv its porphyry pillars and richly sculptured wall; above this, the separated court of the men; Still higher the court of the priests; and high est, the crowning splendor of all, the central temple, the place of the Sanctuary and one of the Holy of Holies, covered with plates of gold its roofs planted with lofty spear-heads of gold, the most precious marbles and metals every where (lashing hack the day, till Mount Moriah stood firth to the eye of the stranger approaching Jerusalem, what it had so often been described by its hards and people, b “ mountain of snow studded with jewels.” The arrandeur of the worship was worthy of this glory of architecture. Four and twen ty thousand Levites ministered by turns —a thousand at a time. Four thousand singers and minslrels, with the harp, the trumpet, and all the richest instruments of the land, whose native genius was music, and climate and land scape led men instinctively to delight in the charm ofsonnd.chatinted the inspired songs of our Warrior king, and filled up the pauses of prayer with harmonies that transported the spirii beyond the cares and passions of troubled world. I was standing before the altar of burnt of ferings, with the Levite at niv side holding the lamb; the cup was in my hand, and I was ahout to pour the wine on the victim, when I was startled by the sound of Shortly after the veil of the porch was thrown back, anti a figure rushed in ; it was the high priest, hut not in the robes of ceremony, which it was customary for him to wear in the seasons of the greatest festivals. He was covered in the common vesture of priesthood ; and was anxious to use it for total conceal ment. His face was buried in the fold of his cloak, and he walked with blind precipitation toward the subterranean passage which led from the sanctuary to the cloister. But he had scarcely reached it, when anew feeling stopped him, and he turned to the altar where I was standing with mute surprise. The I cloak fell from his visage} it was pale ns | death; habitual sternness of feature which j rendered him a terror to the people, had col lapsed into feebleness; while he waxed on the fire it accidentally blazed up, and I thought I! | saw the glistening of a tear on his cheek that had never exhibited human emotion before. But no time was left for question, if reverence j had not restrained me. He suddenly grasped | ‘he heard of the lamb, as was customary for those who offered up an expiation for their own sin ; his lip, ashy pale, quivered with broken prayer; then snatching the knife from the hand of the Levite, he plunged it into the I animal’s throat, and with his hands covered with blood, and with a groan that echoed i ! despair, again rushed destracted away. ; The v ictim still burned oh ihc altar, and lj was offering up the incense, when the increa* | | sing sound abroad told me that the deserted j courts were filled once more. But the sounds j j grew with an extraordinary rapidity. They l i were soon all hut tumultuous. The sanctu- j | arv in which I stood was almost wholly light- : led by the lamps that burned round the and the fitlul blaze of the altar whose firesi ; were never suffered to be extinguished. But i when at length, unable to suppress mv alarm | at the growing uproar, I went to the porch I left comparatively day behind me, a gloom sicklier than that of tempest and thicker than that of smoke overspread the skv. The sun j which I had seen like a fierv buckler nver | spreading the city, was utterly gone. While I looked, the darkness deepened, and the blackness of night, without a star fell far and wide upon the horizon. ***#•* Without impediment or error, I made my way over and among the crowds that strew ed ihecoirtofi the Gentiles. I heard many a prayer and many a groan; but I had no more to do with man ; and I forced my way steadily to the great portal. Tims far, if I had been stricken with utter blindness, I could not have been less guided by the eye. But on passing into the sireets of the lower city, a scattered torch from time to time, struggling through the darkness, like a lamp in the sep ulchre, gave me giiinses of the scene. The broad avenues were encumbered with the living in the semblance of the dead. All was prostration, or those attitudes into which men are thrown by terror beyond the strength and spirit of man to resist. The cloud that from my melancholy bed above the valley of Hinom, I had seen rolling up the hills, was this multitude. A spectacle whose name shall never pass my lips, had drawn them all by a cruei, frantic curiosity out of Jerusalem, and left it in the solitude that Iwtd surprised nie.—Preternatural eclipses and horror fell on them and their thousands madly lushed back, to perish, if perish they must, within the Walls of the City of Holiness. Still the , multitude came pouring in; their distant ■ trampling had the sound of a cateract: and ’ their outcries of rage, and pain, and terror, 1 were like what I have since heard, but more . feebly, and sent up from the field of battle. I struggled on, avoiding the living torrent by the ear, and slowly treading my way wherever I heard the voices least numerous; but my task was one of extreme toil; and but for those more than all the treasures of the earth to me whose life depended on my efforts, I should have willingly laid down, and suffered the multitude to trample me into the grave. How long I thus suffered I know not. But a yell of peculiar and universal ter ror that burst round me turn my reluctant eyes toward Jerusalem. The cause of this new alarm was seen at once. A large sphere of fire fiercely shot through the heavens, lighting its tract down the murkv air, and casting a disastrous and pallid illumination on the myriads of gazers below. It stopped above the city, and exploded in thunder, flashing over the whole horizon, but covering the temple with a blaze which gave it the as pect of a huge mass ol metal glowing in a fur nace. Every line of architecture, every pillar, ev ery pinnacle, was seen with a livid and ter rible distinctness. Again all vanished. I heard the hollow roar of an earthquake ; the ground rose and heaved under our feet. I heard the crash of buildings, the fall of frag ments of the hills, and louder than both the groan of the multitude. I caught my wife and child closer to my bosom. In the next moment I felt the ground give way beneath me, a sulphurious vapor took away my breath and I was caught up in a whirlwind of dust and ashes.— Salathiel. REM ARK ABLE TRIAL. Mr. Keene, manager of a Metropolitan Theatre, was indicted lor the murder of Mr. Jones, manager of a rival thealre in the same town. It appeared there had been a violent dispute raging between the two managers for some time. One night Mr. K. suddenly entered among a party of young men at a hotel, and rubbing his hands with joy, ex claimed, “ Well, Mr. Jones has given up the ghost!” Before another word was said, a man came into the room, and announced that Mr. J. had been murdered, just without the city. Every eye fell upon Keene. Hard words that had been said by him of Ihe deceased were re membered, and the joyful manner in which he brought the first tidings of his death. He was arrested. It was thought the jury would have agreed on a verdict of guilty, but for the examination of the last witness, which put a new gloss upon the whole affair. It was con ducted on this wise: Counsel for def. Do you know the prisoner at the bar ? Witness. Yes, sir. Counsel. Do you know whether any dis pute has heretofore existed between the de fendant and ihe deceased ? Witness. Yes. Counsel. Can you say in what the alterca tion originated ? Witness. Yes. I had left the theatre under the management of Mr. Keene, and had gone to Mr. Jones. I acted the ghost in Hamlet. Mr. Keene wanted me to come back to him. I could not do it without offending Mr. Jones, and here arose the quarrel between the two managers. But on the day of Jones’s de cease, he had consented to give me up, and I saw Mr. Keene in the evening and announced to him the fact. He was much delighted to have carried his point, and said would hurrv over to his companions at the hotel, and tell them that Jones had given up his ghost, and that peace was now restored between them. The jury Consulted together a few moments and pronounced defendant “not guilty.” It was subsequently discovered that the deceased had been killed and robbed by a highwayman called Bob Traverse. From the Albany Argus. The Independent Treasury Bill, from the Senate, it ivilT lie seen, was laid on the table in the House, oft Tuesday, by a vote of 106 to 98. The friends of the hill were taken hy sur prise, whilst undoubtedly the effort was well understood hy the opposition. The coup de main may serve the present purpose of the latter, and may seem to indicate an adverse result, but we do not regard it in that light. Notwithstanding the obvious advantages under which the vote was carried on this oc casion, the opposition majority was only B.—- Transfer the vote o( Mr. Gray, which was in the affirmative only lor the purpose of mo ving a reconsideration, to the other side, and add the Speaker, and the actual majority of the members in the house was four. Besides the above, and the four vacancies, there were ! 34 absentees, of whom we are assured 22 or j 23 are the friends of the Administration and the friends of the hill. Os these, three are from this state, viz. Messrs. Noble, Edwards, and Loomis, who are now on a visit to their respective districts. W e see nothing in this vote that affords j ground for exultation on the part of the fede- I ral opponents of the administration, unless it be the temporary success of an artifice. Nor any good reason, on the part of its friends, to fear that the measure may not vet be carried i through. But whence the exultation of the old and inveterate enemies of the democracy ; and of a democratic administration at the sup posed prospect oftlie defeat of the bill? Can any republican in or out of Congress, doubt that they can count upon a party advantage from its defeat, arid that they know that par ty prostration will follow its success? Can it | he doubted that they see in the adoption off this great measure the overthrow of their i j hopes of a National Bank, and of the control ; of the government revenues and the money ; power of the country through its vast influ- j | enre—that thev fear a return to a sound and I stable course of things, and the termination ; I of their hopes of agitation, pecuniary embnr ; rassmert and bank fluctuations? Are they! not perfectly conscious, that this question dis-! ! posed of—settled upon the sound basis of this bill—the prosperous days of the republic would j i speedily return, and that federalism would he, I shorn ofils political capital? Is it surprising, j I therefore, that they exult at the hope ofils de- ; 1 feat; that thev strive to defeat it by every species of artifice, and clamor and misrepre sentation ; and that they court and applaud ; the representative, who recreant to those ’ whose suffrages gave him the power to pa!y their will by his vote, aud’to the great inter ests of the country, ministers to their designs • Surely there is nothing singular in all this- But that fatuity will be astonishing which,with the slightest attachment to the administration, i the C3use or the democracy, or the welfare | and tranquility of the people, shall give to the enemies of each a vote on this question that shall contribute to increase such exultation | or to swell the triumph of Federalism and the Bank. But whatever may be the fate in Congress of this great measure of the administration— the more essential, let every republican feel assured, as it is assailed and denounced by its enemies, and by that combination of par tisans, under the command of such leaders as your Webb, your Graves and your Wise— the instruments of the Great Bank and its moneyed ramifications —it will go the people and will be sustained there, we venture to pre dict, by a voice as potential as any contested public measure has ever drawn out. The sale of lots at tola, which took place on the 2d insl., amounted, we understand, to upwards of SBO,OOO. These purchases, we are likewise informed, have been made by in dividuals who intend improving immediately. This for the present situation of business is very creditable to the new town.— Floridian.

MR. ARNOLD, who last August boarded with Mrs. Ward, near the corner of Tchapitolas and Girod streets, was attacked with Yellow Fever, and immediately swallowed 15 Pills, and then took 10 Pills every hour for 7 hours afterwards. During the seven hours they appeared to produce no effect, but at the end of that time a feeling of faintness came over him, and he thought the last hour of his existence was at hand. He then blamed himself for putting faith in Brandreth’s Pills. He told his nurse if he was deliri ous, to continue to give more, as he had begun he made up his mind to continue them, even in the state he was. Scarcely had he given these orders when he raised his hand to his face, and, to use his own expres sion, there were upon it drops of perspiration as Large as buck shot. He found that he had bro ken out into the most profuse perspiration. Almost immediately the Pills began to take effect, and he de scribes the evacuations as of the most dreadful kind, black and putrid to suffocation. The doors and win dows were obliged to be thrown open. He was out of danger within 24 hours of the commencement of the attack, and by taking 15 Pills night and morning, on the 4th day he was out, and in 10 days entirely reco vered. This I (Dr. Brandreth) would guarantee would be the case in ninety cases of 1 eliow Fever out of a hun dred, was the above method adopted on the commence ment. Dr. Franklin never spoke more truly than when he said “ a stitch in time,” &c. Wouid the people were wise—time may convince. All fevers are occasioned by the disordered motion of the blood, produced by the humoral serosity harden ing the valves of the vessels. The blood circulates with greatly increased velocity, and is still increased by the friction of the globules, or particles which com pose the mass of fluids. Then it is that the excessive heat is experienced throughout the whole system ; and accompanied with great thirst, pains in the head, back, kidneys, and in fact a complete prostration of all the faculties of the mind as well as body. Bleeding, calomel and barks are the usual remedies employed by physicians. What is the consequence ? Two thirds die and the other third recovers from the fever—but—yes, mind that but—but with their htood overcharged with the very remedies themselves which have been swallowed to dispel the fever. These gen’ - rally depo-dte in the cavities of the veins and arteries, producing most horrid paius—especially in the night, when the cured patient is warm in bed—often obliging him to rise and apply cold water or some other cold ap plication to ease the excessive pain, ofieniimes coughs, most obstinate ones, dropsy, consumption, by the re medies obstructing the lungs, and other debilitating af fections lead the poor patient to the tomb after long and crttel sufferings. This may be prevented— can always be prevented, if purgation i.s at once resorted to —and after the pa tient is reduced ever so low there is hope—provided he perseveres. Hundreds have been prevented from fill ing an untimely grave by following the advice contain ed in the following SHORT SENTENCE: On the first attack of fever, or any disease, immedi ately take a large dose of Brafutreth’s Vegetable Universal Pills , And continue to keep up a powerful effect on the bowels until the fever or pain has entirely ceased. I •ZT? These Pills are an assistant or nature, and afford perfect r lief whenever any organs of the body are unhealthy, restoring health and strength by removing accumulated impurities—otherwise, in simple language, yitiated humors. This is following 1 ature— this Staking disease out of the body—and no other way can cure disease but taking it out. It must be carried away from the body, not merely changed, as is the case when blue pill or calomel is given, or any of thp numerous mineral medicines. It is hr consequence of the perspiration which arises from the Thompsonian practice that has brought it into notice—hut sweating is nothing, ompared to purging with Brandreth’s Pills, in the good effects on the body. One dose of 10 Pills will remove more bad humors, by the stomach and bowels, than a dozen vapor baths, on Thompsonian or other principles could remove. Purging and sweating is all that is required to cure disease, no matter w hat kind— it can he cured in no other wav. BRAN DRETH’S PILLS arc both sudorific and cathartic —that is, produce both sweating and purging. In some cases they produce vomiting ; that is only when the stomach is in such state of foulness that it cannot cleanse itself by any other moans. They always pro duce health, because they invariably excite every or gan to healthy actiod—in other words, THEY AS SIST nature to bring about such a state of things si* 1 necessarily causes fins desirable result. No method rs so sensible as following Nature.— Mankind have been long enough out of be- path, and unfortunately after any thing but common sense, ami guided by any whim birt reason. Let 11s abandon, then, false notions and falserprac.tices--'et us endeavor to resume the path of nature, and be guided bv the light of reason—let us cerfsp to ruin our eves hr gas or can- ! die light, and wc shall need no opticians—let us cease, s doing those things which are crtntrav to the. nature of i our bodies, and we shall need no physicians—let us j endeavor to find out what is na (ire. rvhat a e the laws • that govern her. In this work experience must be our ■ teacher, and prejudice must be forever di cardtd as ’ our companion. BRANDRETH’S VEGETABLE UNITE R- j SAT. PILLS.
