PULMONARY CONSUMPTION 3
Catarrlial and Ast.’miati'c Disordcrs!_ _
MORE than o.\'i; 'X‘El\'Tl{ of all the annual oeaths in this
country and Great Britain, are stated to be caused by
that insidious destroyer of human life, the
CONSUiTIP’I_‘l0N. _ _
Easily overcome in its infancy, it rapidly arrives, if neg-
lected, at an uriconquerable and terrific matu_rity._ An
obstinate, violent, and convulsive cough is the ine\'it.ablp
forerunner, when neglected, of the l’UL.\IONAltl_t COl\-
SUMPTION, and its attendant train of horrors; increased
heat and pulse; nausea; oppression of the breast ; greenish
and bloody spittle ; loss of appetite and increase of thirst;
ulcerated lungs; clammy sweats and hectic fever; general
emaciation of the body; slirivelled extremities; excessive
and weakening discharges; sinking of the eyes ; prostration
of strength; burning palms and flushed cheeks; swollen feet
and legs; and, at length, wh'il_e_ the wretched sufferer is still
sanguine of life, cold extremities and an agoiiiziiig uc_ai_h.
These evils may be nipped in the bud by the timely admmis
tration of that long tried and invaluable Medicine,
DR. REL!-‘E's AS'I‘Hl\lA'l‘IC Pii.i.s,
which have been known to cure persons siipposcd to be far
gone in a Consumption. and exhibiting all the appearance of
approaching dissolution.
The Pills also constitute an excellent PECTORAL MEDICINE.
Those therefore who are troubled with the common coughs
occasioned by acrid liumours, tickling in the throat, or de-
fluxions upon the lungs, depriving the patient of refreshing
sleep, and gradually introducing the train of Pulmonary affec-
tions, will receive from the use of the Pills, certain, and
frequently, the most sudden and cheering relief. They
appease the cough, promote easy expectoration, relieve and
often cure protracted, obstinate and most distressing cases.
Common Cold: are generally removed by the Pills in a few
hours.
These Pills also afford immediate relief in the liarrassing
and suffocating complaint of the ASTHMA. In attacks of this
disease cliaracterized by diflicultybf breathing; tightness
and stricture across the breast_ and iii the lungs; oppressive
flatulence; whee’/.ing; coughing and hoarscness; costive
ness, and other Asthmatic symptoms, the timely administra-
tion of Dr. Relfe’s Pills, invariably mitigates the attack, often
ensures permanent relief, and sometimes effects 8. radical
cure.
The Pills maybe taken with the most perfect safety, as
they require in ordinary cases, no confinement, and may be
administere with the utmost confidence to all ages and
classes of people. _ ,
These po ular Pills have been used by multitudes with
unexample success, in a vast variety of cases, from those
of the slightest, to others of the most confirmed character
Their powerful agency has been known to revive from the
bed of sickness, the palid, dejected and emaciated victi_m,
and send him back again to “ the busy hum of men,” an active
man of business in the full enjoyment of the blessings of
health.
[13 In proof ‘of which. _tlie following, from a multitude of’
testimonials, are respectfully submitted 2. , _
“ I have tried your Dr. Rclfc’s Asthmatic Pzlls, in Asthma,
difficulty of breathing, and Consumption, when all other Merli-
cim: hadfailcd, and have found them most excellent.” Another
Physician writes: “I have tried your Rel/'c’s Asthmatic Pill:
with a patient of mine, whose case had resisted every thing;
the cough has certainly left her.” A co_rre_spondent_writes:
“ The As'i'iiMA'ric PILLS give such astonishing relief in cases
of common colds, coughs, are. as no one can believe unless ‘my
make the trial.” _
An agent writes: “Your (Dr. IZclfe’s Asthmatic) Pills have
crformed a. miraculous cure in this town. A man about 50,
Iiad been confined some months, his feet and legs badly swollen .‘
a bad cough; respiration difficult, and was given over by his
physfcilln and fric-ruIs,,w..‘.io considered him in aconflmczl con-
sumption; after taking three boxes of these Pills all the
tlircatcninv symptoms are removed, and he is fast recovering.
A Gcnflcrnan of Plymouth, 70 years of age, was cured of
an Asthma, by three boxes, after having been afflicted up-
wards of thirty years.
A younv Lady of Boston, was severely afflicted for three
years with a violent cough, difliculty of breathing, spitting of
blood, pain in the side, deprived of sleep, and universally de-
oilitated. In this distressing state, after having tried other
Medicine in vain, and considered as past relief, on taking only
two boxes of these Pills, her cough and the whole of hei
symptoms left her, sleep was restored, and her health was
perfectly established.

Sept. 24. MIDDLEBROOK & MORRIS,
to his frieiitls and the public for past favors in r
A gentleman observed a few evenings
since, very much to our surprise, that
Shakespeare was not a correct delineator of
human character. VVe took up the ciidgel
in the defence of the Bard of Avon, who
had so frequently furnished us with an an-
tidotc to care, and vehemently insisted that
almost every variety of character was faith-
fully portrayed by Sbakespeare’s graphic
pen. \Ve even went so far its to offer to
prove it, although our titne is rather valua-
ble at present, and to furnish a sketch of
character from his dramatic works, for the.
name ofevery well-knownindividual, which
might be proposed. Accordingly the names
of more than fifty distinguished persons were
wrttcn on slips of paper, and deposited in a
hat. The same number of extracts from
Shakespeare was also written on separate
pieces of paper, and desposited in another
hat-—and the Lotte ry was drawn by disin-
terested persons. It will be preceived that
the blanlts and the prizeswere pretty equal-
ly distributed-—and there was as much fair-
ness iii the drawing as is probably usual on
such occasions. How for our conduct may
be deemed eeiisurablc, for aiding and abet-
ting in such a Lottery after the late legisla-
tive act it remains for others to decide.
It will be rceollected that we do not hold
ourselves responsible for the application of
certain passages to certain individuals. If
there should be in many instances a misap-
plication, it must be attributed to c/iam:o.——
Indecd the wonder is that so many sketches
of character, taken at i'andom,should apply
so /ia])1)ily to the master spirits of the age.
The following is the result .of this sigular
lottery. [Lowell Journal.

THE YOUNG IIEIR’S.DEATI‘I-BED.
BY MRS. NORTON.
There was a heavy silence in the mag-
nificent apartment, for the young heir of
tlieliouse of Rotliseaton lay panting in u fe-
ver and almost unconscious oftlie presence of
those around him. The fatal decision had
been pronounced ; the iuliei'itor of an Earl-
doni, of wealth, titles, and clistiiiction ; the
beautiful spoilt child ofpi'ospei'ity, was to
be snatched from his parents and hid in the
cold earth. Lord Rothseaton walked ini-
patiently up and down the room.; from the
large windows with their heavy ci'imsoii cur-
tains, which threw a mock glow on the
cheek ofliis child, I0 the oak door with its
ivory handles and curious carving. I-Ie
paused, and gazed into the faces of the
three physicians, whom vain care had as-
sembled around the bed——and a cold thrill
passed through his heart. He thought of
the joy and bell-ringriiig at the birth of
his beautiful and sickly boy——of his ambi-
tous hopes--ofhis hatred for his cousin,
who was the next lieir~and he threw him-
selfiiito a seat in sullen despontlt:iicy.——
The physicians continued to converse on
ditfereiit topics in and under tone; and
while apparently consulting on the state of
their patient, communicated to each other
the news of the day ; births, marriages, and
deaths ; family grievances, and political in-
trigues.——-From time to time there was a
puse-a glance at the bed—aiid then they
eoiiversed again.’ A little apart from the
rriedical group, sat the sick nurse, covered
with lace and ribbands, ind drowsily exam-
ining the curiously wrought linen belong-
ing to the dying child, whose warclrobe she
was prepared to prove should by right of
custom be hers as soon as the breath had
left his body. Close to the bed stood the
young heir’s attendant, a French lady who
had bceiiinducedby distress to accept the of-
fice of bonnc to the sickly&.waywai'd ofi‘.~pi'iiig
ofthe house ofliothseaton. ’ ‘lie quiet sorrow
of many years trial was written in her fiice.
Her relations had been butchered in the
streets of Paris, or murdered by the guillo-
tine; her husband liad perished of a broken
heart, without being able to bid her farewell.
Sorrow has one thing in common with
prosperity-it makes us selfish. The feel-
ings that have been wrungintensly, remain
numbed and incapable of deep sympathy
iii the afllictioiis of others. Standing as
she did by the death-bed of her little charge
she could not but grieve over him, for there
are few hearts in which a cliild’s faults will
inspire dislike. he could not but remem-
berilic death bed of her own little ones;
and the tears stole down her wasted cheek
as she watched ; but the predominant feel-
ing of her mind was a dread oftlie approach-
ing dcsolateness of her situation ;—a few
hours more, atid she would be again thrown
upon the world, without a lioine—without
friciids -a lonely being, to struggle for her
live.liliood—to endure the taunts ,of some,
and insulting compassion of others—and
this thought was the liitterestin her heart.
\Vas there, then, no one amid the gilded
poinps and crowded luxuries of this cham-
her of death, who cared for the individual
being of the beautiful boy, whose numbered
breatliiiigs still became shorter and shorter?
VVas the ambition of his father--the interest
of the physicians——tlie mercenary calcu-
lation of the hired \V:1tCIl.‘-Pl‘ of his feverish
uights—-tlie halfsellisli regret ofthe widow-
ed French woman—was this all that stood
between his soul and heavcn—all that rose
from mortal hearts to tempt God to spare
the frail life he had given so lately I VVas
there no wild prayer like that which David
breathed in the agony of his soul, when
the child of his sin was taken from him?
Was there no mother in whose gentle heart
all was nothing in comparison of his ex-
istence? There was.
Pale and exhausted—her dark and
eager eyes clouded and heavy with watcli-
iiig—satc that young mother, by the bed of
her dying child. Grandeiir, and power
and \vcaltli——tlie inheritance of'titles—the
possession of riches; what were they then
to hcr——to him? life, life was all she desi-
rcd—7tis life, which gold could not biiy—
which pride could not commaiid—liis life
and bread to give him, and her soul would
be satisfied !—She held his hand in hers,
alI“—tlLl to move——afraid to speak : his lan-
guid head rested heavily upon her bosom;
and cramped, and chilled, and aching as
she felt, she yet stiiiled bitterly when the
_cious burden. Relieve her’. it might be
the last. time his head would ever rest on
her breast; the last time his breath iniglit
be warm on her, check; and as the thought
passed tlirougli her mind, the wan smilc
quivered off her lip, and ti slight shudder
told that she had choked back the tears,
which shed, might have broken his slum-
ber. Day liglit faded away; the glciims
of parting suii-set ceased to shed in glory"
through the room: the rolling of carriages
through the square became less frequent
and the lamps shone through the foggy close
of a London autumn evening. Lord Roth-
seaton approached the bed ; his harsh tho’
.liatidsotne-features. ware dark with despair;
he set his teeth and folded‘ his arms as he
gazed on his 'son’s face for death had thrown
a deeper shadow there since be last looked
on him. “Ifyou had taken more care of
yourself, Lady Rnthseaton,” mtirinured he
with bitterness, “before your infant was
born, instead. of romping like a» child, "he
might not have been dying now; it, would
have been better iievcirto have had an heir
than to ivatclrtliis "poor boy through yegirs
ofill-liealth, and see him die at'.last." He
lifted his eyes as he spoke to the face of
his young wife, as if he feared: the impres-
sion of his own words. But she heard
them not. \Vorn out with watching, she
had yielded to a torpor between sleep" ‘aii_d‘
ifaiiitness 3 her pale check rested near that
sick nurse offered to relieve her of her pre- .-
glistened with tears. “Emily said Lord
Rothseaton in an altered tone, “this has
‘been too much for you; come away love
and rest.” She started wildly, and ex-
claimed, “ls he dead’! is be dead I” and
then flinging herself into her husband’s
arms, she wept long and bitterly. A low
moan of suffering recalled her to lierse1f.—
In vain the physicians advised ; in vain her
husband cntreated. “No,” said she, “it
will soon be over, and then, then indeed I
may rest."
The day had faded ; the night crept on ;
Lady Rotliseatoii rose and looked from the
wiiidnw on the dim square, and the lines of
lamps that lit the silent city. The confus-
ed niiirinur of the night fell upon her ear,
and involniitary she reflected how of;en in
the heated assembly, in the crowded ball,
she had sought a moment’s coolness on the
balcony, and never, as now, felt how many
sighs of pain, how many drunken sliotits;
how many sounds of revelry, joy, sorrow,
anguish and fear, had mingled in the con-
fused murmur which is termed the silence
of night. Awful silence! in which every
human passion mingled without power tn
convey itselfto the listening ear.
- Suddenly the sound of music, distinctly
audible, smote on Iicr heart; they were giv-
ing a ball within three doors of Rothseatou’s
house! “Alas, my dying _boy !” said the
mother, as she crept back to his bed side.
The music continued, but it was faintly
heard within the room; it would not dis-
turb him; that was a comfort. Through
the long and weary watches of the night,
the well known airs haunted her;
music and dancing within three doors of
her, and size sat waiting for the last gasp of
that failing breath.
The night passed away; the long, long
endless night! day-dawn came bright and
blue through the window; the last carriage
rolled from the door of the lighted house;
the last guest departed. Lady Rotliseaton
still sate by the sick lied, listless and weary
she turned her eyes to the dawning light, it
seemed to her then as if one day more were
a boon ; as if to watch aiiothe? sunset, in
an uncertainty which admitted of wild and
iinreasonable hope, were sometliing to be
thankful for; she knelt and prayed he
might not die that day.
The young heir woke, he called feebly
and mournfully for water; the cup of embos-
sed gold was lifted to his parched lips,but in
vain ; the lips parted, and a wild and bean-
tiful smile lit his brow; cvideiitlytliere was
a sudden cessation from pain. ‘Motlier,
motlrer,’ he whispered, ‘I am well now.’
Lady Rothseatoii bent over him : lower and
lower she bent, as he sank back, and then
a wild shriek told that hope and fear were
over.
W'lio cared, who knew when the young,
heir died I The evening of that dawning day
a large party were asssembled at another
house in the same square. ‘The Rothsea-
tons have lost their child,’ said the lady of
the house. ‘VVas he an only son,’ said the
guest. ‘Yes. ‘Indeed! pray, who does the
property go to '1’ ' .
PUNISHME-.Vr.=o_1;1. A NUN.
For /raving Broken Itcr Vows.
As soon as the Abbotts had reached their
respective stalls, and the priests their sta-
tions at the altar, Camilla was led to the
frontof it, by the men who had been em-
ployed to prepare her for the ceremony of
degradation.
A stool was placed at the distance of a
few yards from the lowest step of the altar,
and on this the unhappy Camilla was sea-
ted, in the full dress of her order, and with
her dress thrown completely over her. The
rules she was said to have transgressed was
written on Parchment, and held up before
her by an aged sister of the convent_._
The community lined the two sides of
the nave, leaving a wide space between
them, in the middle of which was a bier,
with a black pall thrown across it.
As soon as Camilla was seated, the two
the alternate verses ofthe Miserere, pausing
long between each verse. During these
pauses the stranger monks tock of the
uiiclothed, save bya long tunic of white
cloth which reached from the throat to the
feet. Her religious habit was torn asunder
into many fragments, and scattered on the
floor. _
The sentence recorded against her was
then read aloud in Latin,‘ aridgtlirce times
repeated. She was now coinrnanrled to
rise, and the procession began. It was
piecedcd by a priest ; who earriedva. la‘i',qe

two and two, each bearing in her hand an
extinguished torcli. IT-lien: came the pale
Camilla, in her white sliroud-like garment
supported on each side by a sable mute:——
Next followed tW0,,pl‘ICStS, one carrying iii-
cense, and the other holy water; and last
-the two mitred Abbots closed*tbe»I.ine.

In this order, they passed down. the side
ailcs, and up the center of the nave where
stood the bier. v The iiuins again divided iii-
.to two lines, taking tlieii; stationas before.
Camilla, pale, motionless, and seemingly
unconscious of what was passing, was raised
without a struggle in. the"-' arms oft_lie m_u_tes,
and placedupon the bier, whence she lay
still and unresisting while the assistant

were bound to see the final execution-,.qf-.

As soon as the doors of the chapel werefi
plosed, Isidore. gave a signal to the man.

borne through the iron door into the vault‘.-
