Reader! have you a.Cough, which you are
iueglectingjto cure, under the idea that it is only
'a."cjdinlllon cold, add that it will soon wear" ii-
self out? Let a friend tell you, in all kindness-
what wi_ll soon be the result..
In "as‘ho‘l‘t‘tilne if you continue to neglect
\
\
~
‘yo'u‘rs’e‘lf, you will begin to feel a sense of tight- ’
1iess'aml oppression-across the ohest. accompa-
‘u*i'ed§\'v‘i1:h_ 'fl'e"quen’t‘_s'ha‘rp darting pains. Then
"11. dry,hackiug Cough will set in,and when you
raise anything it will be a thick and yellowish,
or white "frothy matter streaked perhaps with
blood. Ifr.‘you still ‘take no ‘medicine, these un-
pleasant symp"toms will increase, and you will
soouihave hectic‘ fever, "co chills, nigl1t sweats
copious expectoration, and then great prostra-
tion. " If you still neglect "yourself, a few
weeks or months will see you consigned to the
grave. leaving your friend's to mourn how rap-
idly CONSUMPTION did its work, and hur-
ried you away. Friend ! have you no cause
to be alarmed ? In the above sketch. you may
see as in a glass, how every case of Consump-
tion progresses, with more or less rapidity,to a
ibtal termination. ‘hf all the tliousauds and
m’il,lious whom this greatdestroyer has gather-
-ed tothe tomb, every single case began with "a
Cold! "If this had been attendedto, all ‘might
have been well; but,being neglected, underthe
fatal delusion that it would ‘.‘ wear itself off,” it
transferred its deadly action to the substance
of the Lungs, exciting there the torlnation of
tubercles.‘ ‘Another, and another cold added
fuel to the flame, until these tubercles began to
soften and suppurate, leaving by their ulcera-
-tion great cavities in the lungs. At this crisis,
‘the disease is very difiicult of cure, and of-
tentimes sets at defiance all human means.
. In the latter or worst stage, this medicine
will oftentimes arrest the disease, or check its
‘progress, and will always make the patient
more comfortable, and prolong his life, and is
therefore worthy of a trial ;—but in ils _ incipi-
'ent or formtng periods, Consumption is as cu-
-rable as any other disease,and Dr Rogers’ Syr-
upof Liv1~:awoa'r, TAR AND CANCHALAGUA,
i_f- taken attbis time, will cure it [$338 surm-
»x.r AS rr I8 TAR]-ZN ! :g‘ This is strong lan-
guage, but we ca-n -referyou to numberless liv-
ing witnesses ‘to 'p’r'o've that it is True! And
‘therefore. we earnestly exhort every man, wo-
man -and. child,~who hasa Cough, or is subject
"to Golds, to keep tIlls,t"l1é_(Iit:_lt)e by you in the
‘house, and whenever you take ‘cold, do not letit
nlone to work mischief in your system, but
‘bradiczite it thoroughly, and at. once, by this
powerfully healing compound, and leave your
Lungs uninjured, to carry you in full vigor to a
‘good old age! — _
. MOTHERS;
Have you delicate, weakly children, who are
always taking cold, and subject to Croup ?—
Remember! there never was a case of Croup,
which did not originate in a Cold .’ And when
your child goes to bed wheezing and coughing,
, you-know not that. before motning, Croup may
not set" in,and ere you can get a Physiciau,pour
dear child m:l’y‘be beyond the reach of hnlp.—
VVe, beseech you, therefore, as you value the
lives of your children, keep this medicine by
you in the house, and when your little ones
take cold and commence coughing, give it to
them at once,_and rest not until the cough is en-
tirely subdued. We couscientiously aver, af-
ter the mostextended experience, that if this
advice were followed, no child need ever
DIE OF CROUP.
for the cold wouldbe cured, before it could at
rive at this aggravated nud fatal stage. Let
every Mother, especially, heed well these re-
marks that she may not hereafter, when mnur-
niug- over the early blight of some cherished
blossom, have occasion bitterly to reproach her-
self for her crinftual neglect. A It is an old adage
thatto be foI'ewarned, is to be foreurined.—
Purents ! sojlet it be in your case. '
' L7?‘ Be sure to ask for Dr A. Roger's Syr-‘
up-of LIVERWORT. TAR and CANCHA-
LAGUA, and let no other be ‘ palmed -on to

MISCELLANY.
.11 Nizw Feat.— Walki7Lg_ on an 1.7'zi'crlcd'
Pl'h.nlI’-.—By itlvitalioh of Mr. W'ood, we
yesterday had ' the pleasure of witnessing
Mr. McCormick’s experiment of whlking
on an inverted plank. The experiment was
a private one, only a few persons being pres-
ent, and was made under disadvantageous
circumstances, the preparations beitlg incom-
plete, and the health of Mr. I\/IcC.. being
somewhat feeble. The experiment, howev-
er, passed off to the entire satisfaction, of all
present. A heavy frame was erected; with
a slab of marble ninefeet long at the top,-
the under surfacebeing polis,hed.likc' a mir-
tor. . » 1
' We saw the experimenter mount his plat-
placing both feet against the surface of the
marble, be swung himself off with his head
downwards. Disconnecling one boot from
the slab, and placing it firmly several feet in
advance of the other, he "continued, the alter-
nate movement, till he had _tak'en’ "ten"steps
and arrived at"_the ‘other end-of the slab. We
held our breath, during the experiment, éii"-
pecting,momentarily, that hewouldcfall, but
he appeared to walk as safely as a fly runs
along the ceiling. After his descent, how-
ever, we noticed that he was much exhaus-
ted, owing to the excitement and exertion. "

His ‘daughter, however, "who knew less ofthe

when he denied her what she thought neces-

She answered, therefore, unconvinced 2

My child, said the father, such l.-mguag-e
is not lady-like; where did you learn it?
Besides. it is exceedingly presumptuous in}.
l. ‘ young person to speak so positive, especi'al‘l.y
j when you speak to the injury of another.
He spoke "severely, and Mary for a mo-
ment, was abashed. She "was mortified to
bereproved "lrefore her young companions,
and poutedher pretty lips-"accordingly___
But in a few moments returned to" her wouted
vivacity, i “ " _" "" "' ‘" '-
I am, sure, she said", addressing her father,
I'don’t mean to be unjust to ‘Mr. Thornton.
But Helen has always "been" a'c':’customed to a
'<‘-- =. ,
‘ carriage, large rooms and a good deal of
‘ company. ' '
Yes, Mr. Bowlby ’is'"rich. ~
‘Well, then, pa, cried Nlary, bl"ighteni‘né;-
up. where things have become necessary tb
her, it Iscruel in her husband to deprive her
of them. Everybody‘ n'otic'es" how she has
lost h‘e"r color. And it all‘ comes they say
from her sedentary life, in the close rooms of
that little box ofa hohse, wh'ei‘e her miser of
a husband has buried "her.
I have no_ doubt butlfileien would enjoy
.beIi"BI_‘ health iislre ’c"o'1ild live as she did in
h91'.f3lbeI"S house, quietly said Mr. Johnson,
much. to his daughter’s surprise. But if h‘e'r
husbajnd cannot" afford to live in that costly
style, it would be criminal in him to do ll, to
put roses in his wife’s cheeks. Helen,wheu
she married him, kne_w ‘how he intended to
II“) I0!‘ he Was Very frank with her, as I had
It from Mr. Bowlby’s own lips. She loved’
him, however, and consented to make sacri-
fice to be his." H_er own words were, that
she would rather live humbly with a hus-
band who possessed’ the afI"ection,"th"an roll"
in luxury as the bride ‘ofa man she despised.
And though I am too old to "be romantic,
and am Considered by all you young, ladies,
and here he smiled arcbly at Mary.’s3cortl-
pzmious, as dreadfully matter. of fact,.yet I
must say I think Helen made a "ln"or‘e sensi-
ble speech than you did awhile ago.
The girls all laughed at this home thrust
at Mary, who was herself second time
abaasbéd. 9 Bill she soon recovered her cour-
age again,havin'g a habit of being rather te-
nacious in argument. , _
But pa, she said, you take it for granted
that Mr". Thornton ‘canhot afford to live any
better than he does. Now this is the whole
question. I assert that he can, for he makes
more money than Mr. Mayberryz, who lives
twice as well. _Aud as she spoke, she‘gla"rl-
ced triumphantly "around the circle. " .
« My dear, said her father,-» with another
quiet smile, I think "you will hdmit that I
ought to lzhoilr something of the expenses of
living, for I have kept house ever since I
was married, and thatwas thirty years,-ago.
glow I do" not hesitate to say, tliat,Mr. May-
erty cannot live as he does on the salary of
a bank clerk; and that Mr. Thornton spends
quite as much as a, prudent man, beginning
in business, should spend. ,
But Mr. Mayberty does not fun in debt.
_,,At least no one says that of him said Ma-
ry. Confess now, papa, that he may, if a

Spanish Courtship.
A" young man had entered the diligence
which was going to Sagova. A place had
been alotted to him lnjthe interior-, where on
starting" he found only on‘:-. ‘companion, ‘a
Young lfid$',s:rangely traveling alone; her
figure was all that it should be, but a manti-
lia covered her face. Consequently, to use
the Words Of a novelist, “ a strange sensation
suddenly took possession of hirri—love en-
teredlhis solll.” After some small civilitfes-,
he proceeded to take her hand, which she
withdre\v~,_ while she ga"2:ed athim with two
dark eyes, through‘ the lace that enveloped
her. Again he took her hand; he kissed it
and feeling perfectly safe from intrusion, he
insisted on removing her veil. Wllh this
request, aflei some resistance she complied‘,
and her features fully answering all his ex-
pectations, he might have assured her of his
approval‘: but as Sagova is appro'aclainig, "big.
is compelled to leave her; before doing so
however, the youth pressed her to tell where
she lives, and, as she leaves the diligence she
gives him her name and address.
An hour had scarcely elapsed when he
hastens to the house, which stands alone;
evidenilfy but one family occupies it. He
asks for Donna Eugenia, and is usht-‘red into
a room furnished with unusual comfort.—
The lady he seeks is sitting alone. She beck-
ons him wlth a hughty gesture to be seated
Withindoors his impatience has quite de-
serted him, and having humbly obeyed her,
she thus addressed him: 4
“ Senor Caballero,” she said, “ this m‘o"ril-
ing awoman, a widow, and unprotected,.was
forced by affairs to leave Madrid. Her
duena "at the last moment was taken ill ; _her
affairs at Sagova could not bear’ postpone-
ment; she trusted to the galantry of Span-
iards to protect her on her _road; and how
her hopes were realized you can inform her.
But. think not she who could not defend het-
self from insult, cannot take vengeance,”
and drawing a pistol she presented it to his
forehead, and 'contirlued :—-“ Make your
peace with heaven for the earth you see no
more.”
He dubs "niil. tremble though he sees it is
no jest; his brow quails not, and the emotion
that causeth his voice "to quiver, is not of fear.
He looks the lady in the face and says:
“ Wonldstthou kill me because Ilove thee
so much ?” _
His 'eye, his ‘voice and his courage achiev-
ed the conquest he had commenced in the
coach, and .casti-ng aside the weapon, she
told him she had but tried his love, which
she was ,no"W convinced was, equal to his
'p‘1ut2!':. It appeared that slllé" had been the
young wife ofa Cuban merchant, old, cross,
ugly and cowardly; her married life had
been very short; and; In espousing the young
lieutenant,she endowed him with the wealth
shehad gained from her first husband.
The couple are new high in the estima-
tion ofMadrid the husband. is,a Senator, the
wife a leader of fashiou.——‘But wether the
