WE hereby certify that our eon 6 years of age. was
suddenly taken with a fever, and after a severe sick
near a violent cough ensued.
Ile was bleated; his skin was filled, and his physi
cian said there was nw favorite symptom about him.
that he had a confirmed consumption. At that time,
we procured a bottle of that valuable medicine, Tay
lor's Balsam of Liverwort. After taking one bottle
we began to have hopes of his recovery. lie contin
ed until be had used five bottles. It is now a year
from that time, and his healthis better than it has been
since an Infant.

it to others. .1. J. FISHER. 17 Barrow st. N. Y.
PAIN IN Tilt BIDE AND BREAFT.—ThesediSeases
have caused me much trouble, and often prevented
my ;weeding to business. Every medicine! heard of
I trierf. but found no relief. As a last resource !con
cluded to try Dr. Taylor's Balsam of Liverwort. As
soon as 1 d 11, I grew better, and have been gaining
ever since ;ant now in good health, and can truly re
commend this Balsam as being far superior to any
thing else. A. L GREEN, 2 Pitt st. N.Y.

T. the' merchn nude professional and travelling
part of the comunity this truly great invention as
of infinite value as it is a great saving of time,
trouble and expose. The principle advantage to
be dmividiiuni the manifold writer is, that a
copy of any document may be kept without any
...isi tonal troub:e to the writer, and without any
necessity of using either an inestand or a pen.
tile instrument used for writing is an agate

Francis's Manifold Writer has now been in sue.
cessful operation two years, during which time
the proprieter has had the pleasure of receiving
the unfeigned approbation of all whose observa
tion it has come under. Al the late fair of the
American institute the merits of the article Were
examined into by three of the moat able chemists
in the country, who pronounced it to be a very
ingenious and useful contrivance, and not liable
to change color by exposure to air,enoisture, or
chemical agents. Consequently a medal was a
warded by the Institute.
The proprietei has lately made great improve.

quality manufactured in the United States, being
.made for the Manifold writer expressly to his or.

been thought irnpossible, - haa at lefigth been
brought to perfection fiir whichm copyright has
been secured. The copying hooks are bound in a

ILLICIT DISTILLATION:III the northern parts
of Mayo, in Sligo, Donegal; Lontionderry;'and
Tyrone, the illicit distillers are actively at work
in all quarters. The revenue police care worked
night and day ; and it is said additional means of
prevention must be lesetted to, either by an in•
crease of that force, or the employment of the mil
itary as 4. still hunters." We understand that all
the distilleries in which What is termed Coffey's
Still" is established, have been stopped by order
of the Excise Board in London, which has refits
id to renew their licenses, on the allegation that
frauds against the revenue, had been committed,
toll considerable extent; owing to the peculiar
construction of "'Coffey". Stills." 'The distillers
in question appear without a remedy, as, if they
adopted the ordinary still in use elsewhere, they
would be under the necessity of entirely remodel
ling their concerns at a gteal expense.

several places about the thighs and legs. One of
his hands was also much bruised. After dragging
him some distance, tho brute let go his hold, end

BL t. L. BULWER
.His any body called upon me this morning,
Mrs. Brown V inquired Mr. Laurierlot Transit,
a young gentleman of fashionable exterior, as be
entered the breakfast-parlour of his land-lady, a
middle-aged person, of a pursy presence and agree
able demeanor.
!La! no, sir!' !spited Mrs. Brown, as sheitoun
ced upon the spaut of the tea-urn, and gave her
accustomed dip to the tea-cups; .who would think
of calling upon you at this early hour, Mr. Tran
sit V—no clandestine marriage on foot, eh, sir—
be, be, he,'—and the landlady indulged in a todg
ing-liouseltiggle.
61 - 1 a! ho!—oh! no, Mrs. Drown; and a sickly
smile on the lodger's Nee died of a rapid decline.
.1 was thinking some one might have called that's
all'
There wasa deep unaccountable melancholy
spread over Transit's commonly vivacious image;
his usually buoyant spirits had deserted him, and,
as he hummed a dolorous csvatini, he might have
been compared to a grig in grief, or a cricket chir
ping the dead march in Saul.
'And you. have seen no one in the street since
you rose, Mu. Brown?' he resumed after a' long
pause,.
That's more than I can say,' answered the land-
lady, with a becoming reverence fur truth. have
seen three chinroey-sweeps, five milkmen, several
old clothes-Men, and old women with water-cres
ses, and I don't know how many servant girls op
posite, bunging their mats against the street dour
otepe—and a fil'hy dust they make. We shall
presently have the post boy ; I dare say ; but you
look peaking this morning, my dear sir, what's the
matter 7'
•I had a dream last night,' muttere.l Transit,
with an odious grimace. .1 dreamt I was pursued
by an alligator.'
'An alligator, Mr. Transit! well, that was shack.

•
'lt was dressed in top boots and a Belcher hen
kerchief round his neck,' said the dreamer.
'Only thing of that now,' cried Mrs. Brown, as`
she leaned her hand upon her knee,and sputtered
into a laugh like a damp sky-rocket. *Really, Mr.
Transit, you are the funniest man—'
•%%ae not that somebody at the door?' inquired
Transit, starting like a guilty creature—but taut
.sitting at a play.'
4 didn't hear a knock,' said Mrs. Brown, 'bat
what if there.is—yoa are quite nonsensical this
morning, I declare—but there certainly is,' added
the landlady, out of the window, a man leaning
against the lamppost, waiting for somebody, I
suppose.'
Down went the Bober' with a splash into the
lodger's saucer while the tea cup hung suspend•
ed from the tip of his fare finger, and a piece of
dry toast stuck twang jaws like a plum] of brain
in the throat of Ugulino..
It was to be so—Transit, knew it most be so.
It was the first day of term. Messrs. Stitch and
Stretch had advised him, that, unless certain Ani
-1 cies manufactured of sheep's wool were paid for
before that day week a certain piece of sheep's
skin should be issued forthwith to compel such
payment. It was a bailiff.
'What kind of a thing is it, madam l' croaked
the sufferer, at length.

With Tarquin strides and neatly bent double,
like a 'master of the ceremonies with a cramp in
the stomach, and with a face that rendered die si
militude still stronger, slid Mr. Larincelet Transit
evacuate the apartment; and crawling up stairs to
his bed-room, locked' himself in to enjoy the plea
sure of his own society.
It was necessary to reconnoitre this pest of hu
man kind ; and Oilier!) , as an ostrich from its
covert, did he protrude his head from the window
to watch the proceedings of the being below. The
wretch was Whi,tling a vulgar tune, ant leaning
on his stick with the commendable patience of an
experienced adept. Never did that tune strike
on die tympanum, of the lodger's ear with soigra
ting a harshness--never, surely, was human crea
ture so positively ugly and barbarously hideous as
the perion at the lamp-post. Fee, it was Fong;
for his face was for a moment elevated, and his ill
assorted eyes were projected on a voyage of dor- .
covery, in different directions over the exterior of
the house. .Son Of a "Bailiff I.know thee note'

•A good looking-out, cortainly,' sighed Lanticelot,
walking to the window. Had the wo-be-gone
Transit been shot through the brain with a ball of
quicksilver, he could not have sprang with a more
'frantic leap from the window than he did at that
instant.
..Nothing, nothing.' gasped the victim, p it will
soon go off—a sudden giddiness—St. Vitus's
- dance . —l shall be better presently.'
Yes, it was Fang—the indefatigable Fang, coil
ing around another lamp post, and whistling an
other tune, and Transit's disturbed fancy depicted
him in the act of climbing up the lamp post, and
stepping front its apes with outstretched hand in
to the parlor.
*ls the look-out equally agreeable from the back
of these premises mumbled the invalid, when
he had in some small measure recovered. ,
'Equally so,' cried Spragei, with an air or lon
sequence. 'We can see the Park—fine view of
the gay folks on a Sunday—charming spot . ?
'Well, if that's the , case, I'll bid you good morn
ing, Dicky,' said his friend, a sudden bridge hav
ing been thrown over the chaos of his thoughts:
•you are sure you can't lend the money .1 , looking
over hie shoulders as he departed.

.v:st*You can't get out that way, sir—the vireet door
is in trout; observetl'ia servant us a figure was
seen aciatnbling over the back wail.
.0 yes,.l can,' bellowed Transit, (for it was he,)
struggling and panting, .it's the nearest W 4) into
the Park:' and in a moment atter the soles of his
fest were upturned to the sun with strange rapid
ity, as he held his way over the green sward.
.Wtrat's to be done now, said
,the distracted
debtor, as he sat himself down on the grass and
drew a long bieath 'while the deer came up and
gazed with seeming astonishment at his forlorn
appearance. •Harig me if I don't do on impudent
thing for once, arid borrow the motley of Miss
Lavinia Lamprey—if I can. She loves ate, that's
certain, and must pay fur the privilege. Ay, - you
locomotive venison, he added, with a satirical
sneer, making a wry face at the deer - es they
bdunded away- from him, and startled to his feet
•but. I'll get through this affair with triumph yet,'
and he bent his hurried steps to Punlico.
Mias Lavinia Lamprey was fortunately at home,
but unhappily with a caprice that characterizes
ladies of a certain age, was just now disposed to
look with aspect malign upon her lover,
'My dearest Lavinia, - can't stop a momant—
must be off—the strangest thing—l came out for
the purpose of raying some money, and left it be
hind me—a paltry sum of thirty 'pounds—could

mouth like an absorbing fish, end her eyes elonga,

no matter; and lie tossed himself about the sofa
in a fantastic manner.
Miss Lavinia smiled Lite an animal of the polar
:Teens—so frozen was that,smile--and then purs
ed up her lips. ( the only purse Laurictiot was
doomed to behold,) but she INllll:spared recrimins

'Not a doh,' answered Spraggs, whose principal
employment of money at all times was to spend—
and not to lend: and who had settled long ago, in
his own mind ; that Launcelot was never to touch
