'The fourth anniversary of the Brides . burg Orphans' Home was celebrated on Tuesday (yesterday), on the grounds of the institution, in a very agreeable and enthusi astic spirit. The weather being cool and tine, from the heavy rain that fell the day before, and the occasion being one connected with the good of those poor orphan children, quite a large number of influential ladies and gentlemen from the city and at a distance, interested in the advancement of the interest of the Ilome, availed themselves of the oppor tunity of visiting it upon the occasion. Though only four years have elapsed since the organi zation of this truly benevolent institution, it 'is in a flourishing condition, and contains nearly one hundred boys and girls, - the majority of whom are the offsprings of . cessed soldiers. - . Underneath the shade of a beautiful grove of trees in the play-grounds, was erected a large stage, tastefully decorated and hand-, comely ornamented, where were held the •exercises of the day, which consisted in - addresses by the President of the Board of .Managers, Rev. M. Bausman, of Reading, and.. Rev. Mr. Heisler, the efficient Superintendent, .and speaking and singing by the children, under the tuition of their kind and estimable .teacher, Mr. Lyttle, who spared no labor in perfecting them,to z perform their part with credit, and it was truly pleasing to see and hear how well these little ones acquitted •themselves, and how contented and happy they appeared to be in their home, so kindly provided for them by a generous and appre ciating public. • The Board of Managers (of whom, I be lieve, a majority are Philadelphians) are gen tlemen of influence and wealth, and are doing 'all in their power to forward' the interest and usefulness of the institution. As an evidence of this they have recently purchased, at a cost of $35,000, a new Home, in a healthy and beautiful location,a few miles from Read ing, where they intend removing early in the fall. • Yours, respectfully, LARCENY oF_lzox.- - Two boys, named Charles Murphy and Wm.

"A Painter's Camp" is the title of a fascinating book just published by Roberts Brothers, Boston, It' Is written by Philip Gilbert Hamorton, aii English artist, and narrates his adventures and experiences„in the pursuit of his art, particularly among the mountain and lake country of the Highlands., Mr. ifamerton contrived a hut, with plate-glass windows,in which he lived and painted, in defiance' of storm, and cold, and ivet, and an iron boat in which he navigated the Scotch inland waters with; the utmost security and success. lib tells the story of his roving gypsy-life, with great sprightliness, and intersperses it with many art criticisms which will be of ,value to the devo tees of the canvas and the brush. The latter part • of the volume transfers the reader to Burgundy, and is filled with charming pictures of the people and the landscves of that romantic region. The book Is one orthe most attractive publications of the season. T. Elwood Zen has lately published a "Reply" to the Bev. Dr. Junkin's treatise, entitled " Sab batismos." The anonymous author has brought together quite a large number of authorities for the purpose of breaking down the sacredness of the Sabbath, and, in a historical point of view, has made an Interesting book. But, like all writers in this direction, he finds it easier to tear, down than to build up, and he offers no satisfac tory substitute for the sacred institution which he seeks to -discredit and destroy. We punot lee any good end to be attained for the American 'topic by this sort of controversy. The tendency of the age is not towards an excessive severity of religious belief or observance. but rather the re verse, and it is not wise to add fresh impulses to a tendency which all classes of Tight-minded people may desire to check when it becomes too late. ' a Poem for the Times," is the title of a little volume, very prettily printed, lately pub lished b Carleton & Co., New York. It• is the production of some one who believes supremely in the Highfalutin.'

It was a grand gala day. the weather being most propitious. The gentlemen having the matter in charge did their utmost to add to the comfort and measure of the large and fash ionable company present. The ditiner hour having passed. found the various roads leading to Town Bank. or rather Diamond Beach, black with vehicles of every conceivable desciiption. from the handsomely caparisoned team of the millionaire, down to the meanest vehicle that the sands of Jersey can produce. A few minutes before five o'clock the lio ses, at the call of the bugle, were brought upl'to the score. Lizzie Littlefield, driven by Mr. John Turner, winning the pole: the grey hors Bill, driven by Mr. AM. Goodwin, the middle, at the black mare Maggie, driven by Mr. Wm. D ble, the outside. . - George F. Bochius v Esq.. was the Starting Judge, assisted bY tbk President of the Park. Francis Mellvalu,Esq., a'hd M. Bierne, Esq., one of the Directors of the Association. At this time the sight, as viewed froth the broad porticoes of the hotel, was truly grand. Ilassler s band was pouring forth some of its choicest notes, whilst every eye was turned to the horses, which were ambling up and dov - n the track preparatory to the grand start. In the firstireat, after two attempts, the horses got off in-beautiful style, the grey leading to the first quarter pole. Before they reached the halt mile, all three lapped and showed some fine trot ting, creating a sensation among the assemblage. At the three-quarter pole Maggie shot ahead,with Lillie's nose nt the wheel,land the grey about two or three lengths behind, Iu this way they came down the home stretch in _elegant style, Maggie passing the score about twenty or thirty feet ahead, add winning the heat in 2.35. In the second heat, the grey, though evidently not in good condition, led . off, but broke on the first quarter, giving Maggie the lead on the second quarter, closely followed by Littlefield. At the third quarter Littlefield made a skip, giving the advantage to the grey horse, who was closely following up Maggie. Maggie won the heat by three lengths in 2.3910. The third heat was a remarkably even start, the grey leading by about half a neck. Maggie soon covered him and led:to the first quarter, keeping ahead all the way to the Judges' stand. The struggle on the home stretch was very exciting, Littlefield disputing every inch of ground. Maggie made the score by a neck, leaving the grey about two lengths behind. Time, 2.39 g. The trot in every way appeared to give entire satisfaction, Col. West and Sheriff Sillier were unremitting' in their attentions to their guests.— Cape May Daily Wave. —There were fully three hundred men engaged in the work of digging for the foundation of., a 'new Catholic house of worship in Fair Haven, Ct., last Friday afternoon. The enthusiasm was perfectly boundless. Carts were filled in fifteen seconds by the watch, and six men only at a cart. All the adjoining ground was black' with people looking on or eagerly_ waiting to take a turn handling the shovels. That realizes the old story of the farmer who used. to call out about sundown, 'Tome, boys, let's knock off and go play dig-vatic!" G. W. PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, AUGUST 1, 1867. EUROPEAN AFFAIRS. LATEST ADVICES BY STEAIgER ENGLAND. The Emperor In the House of Lords on the 19th, Lord Strat ford Do BedeMe gave notice of his intention to move an humble address to Her Majesty, ex pressing the condolence of the House on the affecting death of Her Majesty's near relation, the Emperor Maximilian, and their deep indignant sense of the violence done to humanity and the usage of civilized nations by the bar barous execution of that most unfortunate and heroic Prince. On his rising to make the mo tion, ' The Earl of Derbyappealed to him not to pro ceed with it. If the address was simply one of condolence to Her Majesty on the death of a near relation by marriage, it ought to proceed from the responsible Ministers ot the Crown, and its being brought forward by an independent peer would seem to Involve a slui upon the Govern ment, as if they had neglected their duty. Her Majesty needed no formal assurance from the House to convince her that they share her feel ings of sorrow and regret at the death of a prince 01 the most enlightened character, and one who had only been influenced by the highest and most patri.itic motives. Nor was it necessary for them 'to express the sentiments 'of extreme horror and ' regret with which which they, in common with all the civilized world. had witnessed the cruel system of vindic tive retaliation which has characterized the pro= ceedinge of all parties in Mexico, and has culmi nated in the judicial murder of this unfortunate prince. He doubted, however, whether it would be consistent with the usual course of procedure in that House, or indeed expedient, to express their opinion of the conduct, not of a foreign Government, but of one of the parties in a civil war. If any Government with Sluctiller Majesty is in alliance had sanctioned the proceeding In question. it might have' been right to address Her Majesty. asking her to make a representa tion to that Government. But there is now no Gore] men t in Mexico with' which we Kaye rela [lolls, or to which we can make any representa tions, and it would therefore be quite unprece dented for the House of Lords-to express any opinion on the subject. • It would moreover be very undesirable that a motion should be broutslit forward which must lead to a discussion of the whoic Mexican' question. And under these cir cumstances he trutledThat the noble lord would allow the matter to drop. Earl Russell also apj.ealed to the noble•lord not to press the motion.. It would be impossible to do so without entering into the whole question of the civil war in Mexico, and this it was most undesirable to do. The noble earl was under stood to conclude by expressing his high admira tion for the character of the late Emperor Maxi tailisr Lord Stratford do Redcliffe said that, appealed to as he had been by the leaders of both sides of 'the House' to abandon the motion, he could have no hesitation In doing so. From what had fallen from both noble earls, it appealed that fu 'us -431 tice has been done to the character of th - peror Maximilian, and to the nature of his e. mu tion: and, under these circumstances, he would withdraw his Motion. The motion was accordingly withdrawn. The Spanish Difficulty—Ship Tornado. The Earl of Derby, in reply to Lord Clanri-, .carte, who had asked whether the Tornado had been restored to the owners or the legality of her detention submitted to a proper tribunal. said that the action which her Majesty's Government has taken in respect to the matter of the Ternado did not involve any expression of opinion on the merits of the case on the one side or the other. All that they have done 18 to remonstrate against the mode in which the trial was originally con ducted, so as to deprive the owners of , the Tor nado of any opportunity,of bringing forward their' case. The result of the remonstrances addressed to the Spanish Government was that the 'original proceedings have been declared null and vol ;,on account of informality. No new trial has yet 1 4 en commenced: but the subject has not been lost siht of by Her Majesty's Government. The Spanish -courts are not remarkable for the quickness of their proceedings, and although the owners of the Tornado are very anxious to get their vessel baek, they have not shown much anxiety to press for an investigation. In fact, so far as Le could discern, neither party seemed de hiTOUti to push forward a trial. "The Duke of Ar gyle and Earl Rusell entirely approved of the coinse pursued by the Government. FRANCE. Uneasiness about War. The Parts correspondent of the /'all Mall Get :Me affirms that a .`great want of confidence is still felt here. and the slightest movement in a military aray.increases alarm. The Emperor's Proposed visit to the camp of Chalons is con strued into a desire to examine the state of the troops. and determine whether war shall' be made before winter comes on. or in the spring." On the day following. July i.t, the same cor ret-Fondent writes : Time is no political news of much importance beyond the report that M. de Moustier has ad dressed a note to the Prussian Foreign Office. The sending of this note is contradicted in some cuarters. Where it is said that M. de Moustier has Merety - sent a despatch to M. Benedetti for verbal communication to the Prussian Government, and that this deipateh coincides with a similar one emanating from Austria, the subject, of course, being the retrocession of SchlesWig to Denmark. It is said that Prince Napoleon, who is afloat, will go to Copenhagen. and that he - -has been charged with a mission having for its object to paralyze the efforts being made by the Cabinet of Berlin to obtain a treaty of affiance in exchange for a strict observance of the treaty of Prague, as concerns Denmark. The idea that war must :ensue between this country and Prussia rather gains than loses grohnd. Letterh from Berlin credit Prussia with pushing forward her preparations for another campaign, and there is no doubt that armaments are being continued on this side of the Rhine. M. Allred commences an article in the' Preese of this evening on the Russian loan with these words: "The Prusso- Russian alliance so long contested is no longer a mystery." M. Mires then reminds his readers of what Russia did with the money she borrowed after the Crimean war—she understood that her weak point was want of rapid communication, and she expended the money she raised in France in constructing a railway running from St. Pe tersburg to Odessa.. M. Mires appeals to the patriotism of France not to aid Russia in her evil designs. Purchasing Cavalry Horses. A note in the Journal de Palle says that the agents, who, a short while ago. wereAent into Hungary to purchase horses for the French Go vernment, have received directions to remain for a few weeks ut Pesth: it is also said that the cavalry horses, lent to the French furthers, are all well-trained chargers, and have been merely lent to make room in the military stables for un trained animals. Military Planers in the Corps Leglalittlf There was a debate in the Corps Legislatif, on the 16th, on military questions. Marshal Niel, Minister of War, defended the Government in a conciliatory manner, and the sitting passed off without any of those tempests , now so usual in the Chamber. Even M. Gials Bizoin managed not to provoke the President, but he excited gen eral hilarity when comparing the appointments of a marshal to those of a private. A marshal, he remarked, receives . 30,000 francs as Marshal, 30,000 as Senator, 40,000 as commanding a dis trict, 48,000 for entertaining, 1.2,001) for aka ex penses, 8,000 for Legion of Honor—ln all 163,008 francs; while a: private soldier (M. Glals Bizoin pnoted a soldier's own words), "receives a half penny a day for bis menus plai.sirsi for tobaCßo, soap, needle and thread." . . Personal. Tbc , Viceroy of Egyp arrived ba Paris July OUR WHOLE COUNTRY. The betrothal of the Grand Duchess Olga Con stantinovna with George 1., King of Greece, was celebrated on July 8, at the Palace of Tsarskoe- Seio. The Emperor and the King wore the uni form of Russian general officers; the former with the grand cordon of the Order of the Saviour, and the latter with that of St. Andrew, The bride had , on a white dress, laced with silver and sprinkled with roses; two long tresses of her hair, interwoven with strings of pearls, escaped from the rose-colored band that decorated , her forehead, and fell over her shoul ders. The Grand Duchess Alexandra-Joseph ovna. her mother, wore a robe of bide and white, sparkling with precious stones. All the foreign Ambassadors and heads of missions were present. After the ceremony the Diplomatic Body break fasted at the palace, and in the evening St. Pe tersburg, Tsarskoe-Selo, and Pavlowski were brilliantly illuminated. Prince Humbert, or Italy, who was une2Fpeetedly delayed in Berlin,. ,arrived at Tsarskoe in tittle to be present at tl e. marriage repast. The Porie, Oyes a denial to the disquieting ru mors which are current respecting the fate of M. Dano. the French Minister In Mexico. The Queen of Prussia left Paris July 18 for Coblentz, after taking a very affectionate leave of the Empress., and warmly thanking her for her at tentions. 'Their Majesiles )otarted with mutual assurances that they would endeavor to bring about a good understanding between France and Prussia, and it Is supposed that the active coope ration of (he Queen of England is to be sought by the French Empress while at Osborne. if. Victorien Bardou, author of "Nos Intimes," "La Famille Benoiton," and several other suc cessful comedies, has now written a new piece en titled "La. Feunne du Monde," in Which the Cyn thins of the day are severely handled. Nroltaire is to have his national shave at Paris, and M. Hausmann has decided that it shall stand on the stepsof the.lnstitute, where it will have a lion on either side. Admiral Farragut has arrived in Paris. and after a few days' stay will.go on to St. Petersburg. Gen. Dix went down to Boulogne to meet him. The King and Queen of Portugal are to stop at the Tuileries.,! The Emperor Napoleon and the Sultan of Turkey In Conference. (From the Memorial Diplomat-blue.] "The Emperor NapoleOn remained in conference With the Sultan on the day of his departure for London for, three-quarters of an hour. On the previous Sunday. Napolconell. also had held a private conversation with his august guest at St. Cloud, which lasted several hours, Djemil Pacha acting as interreter. We have reason to be lieve that the Emperor took advantage of the Sultan's stay at Paris to again urge the friendly counsels which M. Bourree, on his no mination as Ambassador, had been charged to carry to Constantinople, and, to which he made allusion in presenting his credentials. The Sultan, through both Fuad Paella and Djetuil Pacha, expressed the most sincere gratitude for the friendship shown by the Emperor of the Eicuch ;ts to the integrity and stability of the Ottormal Empire. and has promised to devote all his efforts to the amelioration of the position of his Christian subjects, as France has continttally advised him, as the only eflicaciouS means of avoiding a new crisis in the East. We may, ther'efoic, expect that on his return Abdul Aziz will inaugurate a series of salutary reforms.. The Sentence of the Assassin Here zowsk.y. • [From the Brur , e)l4 N.c.rd.] 1 The perpetrator of the attempt in the Bois de Boulogne has been found guilty of murder with extenuating circumstances. and sentenced to hard labor for life. The mitigated expiation of a crime which has caused Russia to quiver in her inmost fibre. will, we fear, produce a disagreea ble impression in that country. For %trash. looking at the matter from a westertr" point of view, we should be alinost tempted to congratu late ourselves on a result which, refusing to the assassin of the Czar the pre4ige of the scaffold, clothes him and his crime in the vulgar and , ignominious livery -of the convicted felon ; hut we scarcely expect this view to be taken in Russia. The people of that country—still primitive in their ideas, no doubt—do not imagine that the gallows or the guillotine can ever serve as a pedestal to fame, or that a criminal is less guilty'ferhaving fired upon a man because that man happens to be an Empe ror with taiWons of existences attacked to his. The French jury decided according to its con science, wad it is not for us to discuss its verdict, standing is It does on this inviolable ground; but if ever a reason of state ought to prevail, it is certainly in a case like this, in which one of the greatest principles: of --social -conservation • and mutual guarantee between people was at stake. ITALY. The Cholera Raging in Sicily. The official accounts of the cholera in Sicily, dated Palermo, the 29th of June and the 4th of July, report as follows : In the province of Gir gent!, from the 18th to the 27th of June, 2,573 at tacks, and 1,371 deaths; Caltanisetta, from the 17th to the 27th, 1,305 attacks, and 762 deaths; Trapani. from the 19th to the 27th, 17 attacks, and 13 deaths; Catania, from the 23d to the 28th, 157 attacks, and 55 deaths. For the week ended July 4, for the provinces of Catania, Caltanisetta, Girgetti and Trapani, the attacks were 2,383, and the deaths 1.421. Palermo and Messina enjoy perfect health, and both have established cordons against infected districts. RUSSIA. The News of Maximilian's Death fie. ceived,with Satisfaction in Warsaw. [From the Vienna Wanderer.] A communication from Warsaw relates some strange' facts said to have taken place in the Polish city relative to the death of the Emperor It, Maximilian. At the official club, a bang ,of young 'Russians and members of the Muse vite. population, it declares. was given, at w ich Prince Azerbatoff, of St. Petersburg, passing through Warsaw to Paris by Vienna, proposed a toast-in honor "of the conqueror of the audaci ous invaders of Mexico, President Juarez." This toast had been received with great ap plause by the company. composed of many Gene rals and Councillors of State. Several allusions were also made to the peace which Juarez was about to restore to'his country after havingFan qiiished the rebels, who like the insurgents of Poland, were upheld and excited by foreigners; also to the great desire which Mexico felt to es tablish good relations- with Russia. After the aiilatise had somewhat subsided. General Baron Itanke, director of the Warsaw Theatre and ad ministrator of several Imperial places of amuse ment. rose to explain to those present how it was that Providence had reserved a disatrous end for the Emperor Maximilian. Among other things. he said: "lt is well known that at the outset of the Polish revolution this Austrian Archduke, in concert with the Emperor Napoleon, had cast his eyes on the crown of Poland; that the Duke de Grammont had labored in that sense at Vienna; and that a Polish deputation bad already been formed to offer the crown officially to Maxi milian." The General ended by asking what would have happened to the Archduke if, with the view of conquering the crown' of Poland, he had put himself at the head of the insurgents and been taken prisoner.

The Late Tragedy in Baltimore. (From the Baltimore Commercial, of July 31,1 - - • Ycaterday warning, about 10% (ielock,' the most intense excitement was created on Centre Market Space, near Pratt' street, by a terrible tragedy which had been enacted in house No. 84, hy.an Irishman, named George Hanan; who had first attempted to murder his with, and then killed himself by cutting his throat. The first intimation of the bloody affray was the appear ance in the street of a married wont= named Mrs. Mary finnan, who rushed across to• the market with blood streaming from her body.. and appealed.to her mother "to ,save her." An ex amination discovered that she had been terribly wounded in the right breast, and Wilk; fast bleeding to death. A physician was summoned to attend the woman i and an ex cited crowd rushed into the house n search of the husband. whom the woman had stated com mitted the assault upon her. Upon ascending to a room in the rear portion• of the house, in the third story, a terrible sight waspresented to view, the husband being found laying upon the floor in a large pool of blood with his throat cut from ear to ear, gasping his last, with a huge butcher knife beside him, and in one corner of the moth a little girl aged eight, years, a daughter of deceased, partially hidden from view and almost crazed with fright. Coroner Sultzer was summoned to hold an inquest, and first examined the little girl, who was the only one present, who stated that her father went out early this morning, and returned perfectly sober about 103' o'clock, and found her mother crying. They began to quarrel, and after some hard words had passed, he walked to the table, and taking from the drawer a huge butcher knife, he seized the unfortunate woman by the hair, and having dragged her to the wall, mad several cuts at her, and finally buried the knife up to the han dle in er right breast. .The woman managed to break away from him, iind•ran screaming out of the room, down stairs and into the street. As soon as sbe had gone, the child states, he drew the knife across his own throat, and immediately fell to the floor, in which condition his body was found. Several other witucsses testified that deceased and his wife had lived very unhappily together for several weeks past, and were fre quently heard to engage in savage altercations, prompted, it is' said, by the jealousy of de ceased. The jury, after an examination, rendered a verdict; that " &ceased came to his death by cutting his throat with a butcher-knife." The chamber in which the terrible deed was commit ted presented a most repulsive 'appearance; upon the wall were great spots of blood. An ironing table, with its covering, was turned topsy turvv, several dishes on the table were bespattered with blood. whilst in the middle of the room were the ghastly remains of the suicide, making up a pic ture of horror, such as to leave a lasting impres sion upon the minds of all present. Deceased was a very large-sized and powerful man, aged about :15 years, and was a butcher by trade. At a late hour last night the Woman was still alive, although lint little hope is entertained of her re covery, as her right lung is injured. WHIMSICAL A:TTEMPT TO COMMIT ;SUICIDE.- One of the most whimsical and unheard of means of "shuffling off this mortal coil," occurred in this city on Wednesday. A woman living in the lower part of the city, named Meyer, who, from the ill treatment of her husband, had become disgusted with life, attempted to make way with herself in the following unique manner : She took a 6-pounder cannon ball, which her husband had brought from Vicksburg as a relic, and which - had been lying on the mantel-piece for years, -and having ' a rather indistinct conception of the terrible effects of the projectile, and the manner of using it, at length hit upon an idea. She 'Went to Edwards's grocery, - auff purchased' fifty cents worth of powder, returned home, and procuring a breakfast plate she placed it on the floor. She then poured the gunpowder upon the plate and put the cannon ball on top of the powder. Hav ing thus got her artillery in position and every thing in readiness, she then sat down over the loaded plate, and with a burning taper in one band fired the powder. The effect of the explo sion may be imagined. The exploding powder burned and blackened the woman's lower ex tremities, while the ball, which she vainly ex pected would end her - miseries, did not stir from its position. The unfortunate victim of this in- I sane attempt at self-destruction is lying in a pre carious condition from the effect of her foolhardy attempt upon her own life.—Mi ssouri Republican. The White Sera Disaster. Cant. Herald, of the bark Albania. of Dundee, Scotland, has written to the English papers a fresh account of the shipwrecks that occurred In the White Sea: "The fleet mado,ice, on 12th June, 10 miles off shore, where they were detained by contrary 'winds till the 15th, the ice coining down in the meantime. When well in the ice it * fell calm, and then a heavy land squall took the ships aback and did great damage. The ice cleared away, and the fleet proceeded onward through drift until the ice came from the N. E., so that the vessels were compelled to force a passage, take the pack or be driven ashore. All the, Ves sels took the pack, however, and the same night were fast in the ice. Many of the captam'S companions being unused to navigating ice, would net sail in, afraid of hurting their ship's bows. One schooner simply entered and tried to back off again, when Captain Herald shouted to the captain to crowd on all sail. He inquired if that was the best course, and was answered in the affirmative, when he went on with a will. He asked what time he would get out again, and was told to trust in Providence. Poor fellow, his ship went down the next day. The Ice averaged three feet in thickness. The fleet remained fast till early next morning, when the tide turned and the work of destruction commenced.' The ves sels canted every way, fell foul of each other; jibbooms, masts and yards caught and smashed; twenty-two ves sels went ashore, five went on a reef and five sunk. The crews saved what provisions they could and rigged tents in which to live on shore till death by hunger and cold released them from suffering, or some ship sent on a mission of mercy released them. Signals of distress were made, some of the, crews took to the ice, some to the boats, anywhere out of ships sinking or being crushed by the ice. In a week the ice opened and a number of the vessels got out. Captain Herald says of 150 vessels fast the first day, it Is thought about 70 were lost. Steamers were sent to the assistance of the shipwrecked seamen, and hopes were entertained that the majority of them would be rescued." Use of Ether Spray The Journal de lifedeeine de Lyon, mentions two cases in which the use of ether spray was momentarily successful. In one case of neuralgia the spray was used until the skin turned white. Much relief was obtained at each sitting; but the pain always returned soon afterwards. The patient left the hospital without having experienced permanent benefits. The spray, was also used for a young lady suffering frour severe gastraigia. The ether was directed to the epigastrium, before meals, and thoeffect was that vomiting did not occur so regularly after eating as heretofdre. This looked very en couraging; but, whenever the spray was left off, all the symptoms returned, The ether in such cases can, therefor e, be eousldored a s, a , useful palllativee M. , Gailleton, in the - Wme Journal, states that by'measie of the spray he was able, in a duIPUI by* topu ll out the ivithOut-VVln.Lthei patient any pan.
