the "Pulmonary Syrup,','- ' -in an extensive -and varied
-Medical Practise for many years,' with unpredecented
baccess, we unhesitatingly Pronnifnce it one of the Ye,
17 best remedies in the world, for Pulmonary Diseases.
'Give it a fair trial, and you will be thoroughly convin

the day, but a medicine of real value=-one that is well
worthy of l'he Id . gt thd enviable reputation, 'which it
has won ; and one worthy to be in every family. A

' - Dr. Wm. Steelling—Dear Sir with extreme
'pleasure that I am permitted to inform you, of the...re
markable 6fficary'of your "Pulmonary Syryip" in my W
S' :as attacked about the Ist of lastSepteMber,
...with a couch,' that became on severe and alarming„ in
!tree or four' weeks, that I ahnost despaired of ever
train reciircriwg r.y fernier .good health. I was so much
'reduced, that I could hardly place one foot before the
'other ; at night. I was obliged to lay holsti4ed up in-
Sity bed ; when I laid down, I was afraid of suffocating
root excessive coughing; and it Was with the minost
!difficulty, that I could raise the Matter from my lungs.
My relation's and friends, quite •tle - spaired of toy ever
'recovering. 1 used a number of medicines, without
hity,ilesirable effect •At this critical, Period, I was so
'fortunate as to procure some of your Pulmonary Syr
-'up, which immediately - enabled me to expectorate vi hit
`ease, rind by the time I hail - fitken four bottles', I was
:perfectly cured of my, cough. and toy flesh, which I had
lost, twenty pounds_ returned with my usual sfrength.
And hy - 1114 blessing of. Divine Providence, upon the
} n eaps used, I was in taco months perfectly cured. I
'am MAe as well as I ever was, and have no Cough, nor
, - the least effects of sir former disease. - - L,

The advatotwoof this system is, that efficient security'

THE BRAVO 11 - tJs ANDS
H. A' TALE .OF LTA I; Y.
BY MISS PAILD - OE.
VI'V the captain, of a irili3o
bandits infesting the &03. , ver Alps, oflofty stature
muscular frame, and undaunted temperament; he
scented especially fitted for the desperate post in
wind' his evil stars had placed him. 1 We say hi:,
evil Stars, for Salvati was the cadet of a noble lam,
ily, of which honorable mention is! made in the
archives uf Florence, He ‘ , ra:s a man of cultiva: ,
ted intellect and high aspirations: Une who was
never de,tthied hi tread the obs Cure path of Mind
less mediocrity, but maddened by diappointment
and despair. The Miseries of Salvati would have
made a Maniac Of a less desOrate (nature: _they'
made him a robber. His haing was[ the ,by-word
'of terror to travellers and mPrehantE4 and at the
sound of fear by which the matrons pf the Alpine
hamlets soothed their way-Ward nurselings into
submission : Hark ! Salvati supiced alike to
silence.the most turbulent, and to sulpine the most
refractory.
Meanwhile,'Salvaff hiinself knew Ino happiness
on earth, save in the consciousness. that his name
could thus strike terror to the hearts of those Whd
iit early youth had . taught his own to quail. He
had been injured, deeply injured; and he had,row
ed,vengeance—nor was Ate one to reathc such a
•
vow lightly. I
In his first manhood, Ludovico had lo;edi not
as wordliflgS love_ hut with &cif ddviitedness. By
day he walked through the marble halls of the
-S;ilvati Palace, musing on the idol of his soul ; by
night he closed his eyes only to dream of her.
Beatrice Menti was a 'Florentine, with eyes like
midnight when it is bright-with- stars, and a voice
like that of the bird which loves the'iltakness, the
brow of a Medonna. higkand calm, and pale, look:
ing as though earthly passion could never over;..
shadow if; And d smile Which shed stinShitie where
it rested. She was so young and jgentle that it
seemed as if she were scarce fitted to'contend with
the cares of life, and so light hertrted - that she at) ,
pered ne , i•cr to,have one dream of sorrow. Such
was she When she listened to Salvatils talc of love,
as they sat together beneath the bOughs. of 'the
i)oinegnitate trei", from Which lid pilfdrii-d the rich
red blossoms.to' twine them in her lnk; while the
sound of Minstrelsy came faintly front the distant•
palace, swelling and dying as the wind rose
among the orange trees.
'INVIIat reeks it what he said, or how he said it;
beneath .the moonlighted sky, amid breeze and
blOssoms; enough that she heard it without a
frawn—that she answered with a smile : and that,
aslSalvati 'pressed. her to,his heart, be called Vet
his—hiB own! his love-Lids World! "]'was a
inyeet,dream, and they walked hand in hand, his
arm around her and her rich warni cheek resting '
upon his shoulder—slowly, pausingly, under the
delicious night wind; and they told each other the
history of their secret atrectlon—how it had grown
arid strengthened since they first met; and if Be
atrice blushed at the confession, he kissed away
her blushes and she did not regtet her confidence.
L'udovico told a less embarrassed tale, and she
pressed her small hand upon the lips to slay their
utterance ; but the lover heeded not the gentle hin
drance, and ho'showed her how long and how ar
dently he had loved her—for days are centuries in,
a lover's calendar ; and the moon had risen high',
iu Heaven, and the orange buds were shedding
the perfumed dew from their snoWy cups, ere they
remembered that the world was peopled. by others
beside themselves . ; and prepared again* to mingle
'with its denizens. '
A . fearful year followed that blissful eVening.—
: A rival's blood crimsoned the blade of SalVati ; but
the stab was deeper ,-at his own heart's core!
Could-it:be that Beatrice loved the smooth-lipped
stranger? His own Beatrice! He would not
think that it was thus; and yet , she wept over the -
corpse— sUch tears as women weep only for those
whom they have enshrined in their • souls, But
Beatrice Monti'-the beautiful, the fond, the timid
Beatricel i no; it could not be; and Salvati
held her to his heart, and loathed himself that he
had dared doubt her. ' •
He becanie a husband. Not a word, not a look
of his youbg bride, but was. to him •as light and
music: All that tenderness which woman loves
SO well, he laVished upon her' With a prodigality
which proved that his whole heart was in the ho
mage'; and yet . she 'was; not happy. The smile
fled from her lip, her step became less buoyant, ,
and her voice more sad. Ludovico mourned and
Wondered, yet never doubted; -and when Beatrice
placed, in his hands her infant girl, -he forgot all l
sorrow in the contemplation of its cherub time:
One day he led his fair wife forth into the sun-.
shine and the child slumbered 'upon hii bos,om.l
He talked to Beatrice of all which that child might!
one day be to them, gifted as she seemed with her'!,
mother's beauty—that mother who was to
fairer than aught else on earth. He was answer
ed only with tears. Suddenly a messenger ap
proached theM, who was the bearer of 'strange. ti
dings—he was a kinsman of Salved,- and he caine
with joy in his heart to tell him that the rival
whom ho had griiitten he had nevertheless not
slain; that he yet lived; though, his friends had
borne him across the sea when they rescued hint
from death—there was no blood upon the .soul of

Ditlivien smiled". scornfully
,in_ dotabi, but the
doubt was vain. The stranger had been Seen since

Then, indeed, light ratrned toothe eyes of Be
atrice, theugh she uttered not a Word as t.udovico
gloOrnity led the way back to their splendid home.
One more short month and the infant of the
Count Salvati was motherless. Beatriceihad fled!
The fatter and the child were alike deserted. The
wretched and bereaved Man caught d tttii %rap:.
ing girl—weeping it knew not wherefere 7 -and, in
'his turn, ahandoned the home which tolhim was
now: desolate. He wandered, he cared not width-
tr, for Many weary 'days; -the peasants v!vhoca he
encountered in , hisnray shared with him, 'and with
his motherleislrifint, their simple, and ofte,n sean
ty,:meal ; and he slept with the child nestled in his
bosom, under4he bright clear sky, or beneath' a
cotter's roof. It was thus the. bandits fund hint.
He was reinckless' man. They urged Iliur to be- -
conic their,chief; and he started at . once,frdin his
lethargy Of sorrow. By their means he might yet
tasfo revenge. The very thought was 'Cabalistic.
Hi tend them all his wrongs, and . they talked Of
vengeance; that was enough; he , was thencefor
ward theirs—body and soul. He girt the pistols
and the dagger in his belt; he; pressed the pkuned
hat upon his brow; and he placed his little 'Be
airice in the orals of the 'gentlest of the bandit's
wives. It' is true that he shuddered al3 lie gave
her in such rude keeping, but he was anticipating
vengeance: and he turned away with a'siuile upon,
his lip.. , • [ •
He Watched and watched for yearS, and yet his
lor&irig was unappeased: and, meanwhile, his
”
childgrew healthy among the Alpine breezes,with
'all the, loveliness and grace 'dr her ; mother floating
`about her like - an atmosphere of light, and all the
hardihood of a young mountaineer. - ' - '
Salvatrs revenge had been so long delayed, that
the thirst for its indulgence became demoniacal,
when he heard-that his enemy was at length With
.in his grasp—and Beatrice,' too! She who had
only wen his heart to break it !==she , who was
once the wife of his bosom--the mother of his in
fant girl! She Was even tiow with the neat; u.,on
whom his curse rested--to Whom it had clutig,fer
