out shrgooas that Philadelphia ovor bad,*nnd she
can• boost of many of great oininouco, told a story
illustrating Mr. Brown’s strong faith in this medi
cine. Thb Doctor wasquUsing him on It, nmj went

inquiring in each oaso how ho (Mr. Brown) thought
thoy phould bo treated. In every case Mr. B. con
tended that his gingor frhs applicable, either taken
ns a medicinu, or applied externally.
! It is well for each one to bo fully persuaded in
bis own mind, atlc&st in a ease of tills kind, whore
tho tendency is' to;do no' harm mid much good.
While ppoaking -of Dr. 'Mutter, perhaps you will
allow a slight digression. Tho Doctor Imd a smart 1
littlo darkoy waltor, who cither caught a fondness
forjoking from him, orporhaps it was inborn; at
any rato; ho iron always ready to play a trick on
any one. A lady oneo wont to• th’o Doctor’s with a
violent toothache to. inquire what to do. Tho Doc
tor-was not in his office, but tlio boy went out of
tho room as if toonll him, and returning told tho
lady thattho Doctor was trory tired, and asked to
bo exposed from coming' down to sco her, but ad
yised her to tako a doso of magnesia, apply a mus
tard plaster, bathe her feet in warm water and go
to bed.’* With implicit confidence tho direction
wasohoyod. A. few days after, tho lady meeting
tho Doctor in tho street, thiinkod him for his'advico
which, though eho thought Very strange, had proved
Tory effectual. :
OeOASIOXAL.
It was now the Doctor’s turn to be surprised. 110
had never heard of the caso before, and, on inquiry,
ho fottud tho boy had boon trying an experiment on
tho lady’s.credulity. No harm resulted. Was thiß
an accidental' dtsedvery ? Who'-Wlehcß to' try tho
remody ?; Mr. Brown has hod A drug etoro at this
corner for-many,.years,-and it is, perhaps,, tho
largostrotail establishment of tho kind in the city.
We Uarp fpom Hazard's Register, of Pennsyl

details concerning the interview of tho tqro Em

though ho ilurd person heard a word of what passed
at this interview, F ean etnto that they conversed

tionapf wliat it conceives to bo tho mci?t probable

“A comparison of tho despatch by which tho

adopted nt Villa Franca with that by which the Em
wuror of Austria commumeatql tho snmo event to

probable that sho. is not included, in iho gOnoral
of nil tho sovoroigns restored, tho

Lastly, tho Austrian despatch 'does not represent
