This is to certify xhat . some two or three weeks
since, two of my children were attacked with
Worms—l tried every remedy that I knew or heard
tell of, .but without any effect. they still growing
worse and worse, until Mc disease', had obtained an
alarming and FATAL character; so much so, ihat I
and all who saw them felt satisfied that DEATH would
close the scene if relief was not immediately obtaln
ed. Otte of the children presented,a fearful-picture
of diseases and suffering, she Was literally alive
with worms; her countanance hhd a pallid and
death-like hue ; her breath was extremely offensive;
her frame wore away to a mere skeleton, and all the
symptoms attendant upon worms were of a highly
aggravated character. To such a fearful extent did
the db:eare arrive, that she actually passed worms
from her.nose,ifollewed by copious and alarming
bleeding. It was at this time that I applied to you
and obtained a bottle °Flour Woi.n Syrup. -Anil I

perfectly cut-ed. . '

LIFE! IN bun CITIES
A writer in the New York Tribune, makes the
following appalling statements in regard to, the
condition of a certain class of laborers in that ci
ty :
'There Mein this city, according to the closest
estimates that can be Made, ten-thousand women
who exist on what they can earn by the needle.—
The following are the prices for which a majority
of these females are compelled to work—they be
ing\such as are paid by the large depots, for shirts
and clothing, in Chatham street end elsewhere:
For making common white and checked cotton
shirte,`"six cents each; common flannel undershirts,
the same. These' ire cut in such manner as to
make ten scams, in two pairs of sleeves. A emu.
mon fast seampstress can make two of these shirts
per day. Sometimes very swift hands, by work
ing from sunrise to midnight, can make three.—
This is equal to seventyfive cents pet week, • (al
lowing nothing fur holidays, sickness, accidents,
being out of work,&e.) or the fit - A, class, and
$1,123 for the others. 1 . I
Good concur shirts, with linen bosoms, neatly
stitched, are made ftir twenty-five cents. A good
sempstress will Make one in a day,thus earning
$1,50 per,week, by conStant labor. : I
Fine linen shirts, with4itaited bhsoms, which
cannot be made. by the very best hand, in less than
fifteen to eighteen hours, steady work, are Paid
fifty cents each. Ordinary hands Make one ain't
of this kind in two dayS.
Duck Trowsers, Overalls, &c., eight and ten
cents each. DrMversand Undershirts, both Plant
uel and Cotton, from six to eight cents, at the or
dinary Shops, and 1?-.1 at the best. One garment
is a day's work for sbme—others can make two.
Satinet, Cassimere and Broadcloth Pants, some
times with gaiterLbottores and lined, from 18' to
30 cents per pair: One pains a,good day's work.
'Vests, 25 to 50 cents';---the latter price paid on
ly ler work of the very hest quality. Good bands
make one n day. !
Thin . Coats arc matte for 25 to 371 cents a
•
piece. I_, •
Heavy Pilot-digit Co l ds, with 'three pockets, $1
each. A 4:oat of this kind cannot be made under
three day& -, I -• . .
- Cloth Roundabouts and Pea-jackets, 25 to 50
cents. Three can be inade in two days.
' 'A great bomber of females are employed in ma
king men's and imp's : Caps. ' By Constant labor,
fifteen or eighteen hodrs a day. they can snake
from 14 to_ 25 Cents. We are told by an old la
dy who has livetl,lhy this kind of work a long time,
that when she beginsit'Sunrise and works till mid
night, she'can earn 14 Cents a day..
A large majority of theie women are American
born, from, the great Middle Class of life, many of
'whom have once, been in comfortable and even
affluent circumstances, and have been reduced by
the death or bankruptcy' of husbands and relatives,
or other Causes,!to such straits. Many of them
are the wives, of ship-masters and other officers of
, Others are the widows of mechanics
and poor men, and haVe,children, aged mothers'
and tatheri, &c., to support by their needle.. Ma
ny have jdrunken husbands to 4ld to their bur
dens and afilictinns, and, to darken !every faint
gleam of sunshine that' domestic alreition throws
even in tie humblest abode. Others havesick or
bed-ridden husbands or 'children, 'or perhaps, have
to endure the agony of receiving home a fallen
daughter or an outlawed son, suddenly checked in
their career of vice.
The manner in which these Women live—the
'squalidness and unhealthy location and nature of
their habitations the inadequatenes4 of their food
and clothing—the impossibility of providing for
any, the slightestrrecreation,or moral or intellectu
al culturc,,or of educating their children—can be
eiily imagined; but we assure the public that it
would reqUite anj extremely active imagination to
conceive the reality.
TBeIMAS Pei t6.—A gentleman' in New York,
whoversonally knew Thomas Paine, and was re
peatedly in his company during the last years of
his life, gave the followihg account of a conversa
tion with him respecting the Bible: .
"One evening. I found Paine harrang,uing a
company of his 'disciples, on the great mischief
done to Mankind by the production of the Bible
and Chriatianity.! When ho paused I said—
. Mr. •Paine, you have . been in! Scotland; you
know there is not a mole rigid set of people in the
world than they are in their attachinent to the Bi
ble; is it net their school book ! ; their churches
are full of Bibles. \% hen a young man leaves
his father's house, his mother always in packing
his chest, puts a!Bible 'on the top of his clothes.'
lie 'said it was true. continuedou have
been in Spain and Portugal, where they have no
Bible, and there 'you can hire a Menlo murder
another who never gave him any offence.' He
assented. .Yoti, have seen districts in Europe,
where not one man in fifty can read, and you
have been in Ireland, where the majority never
saw a Bible. Now you know it is an hisbirical
fact, that in one cOmity in England or Ireland there
are many more capital convictions in six months,
than there are in!the tvhola population of Scotland
in twelve. Besides, this , day there is not •uno
Scotchinan in the A Imshoese, State Prison. Bridge
well, nor Penitentiary of New York. Now titre.
if the Bible was 'so bad a book as you repreSent it
to be, those who! use it : would be the worst mem
bers of society; but the contrary is the fact; for
our prisons, almshouses and penitentiaries, aretil
led with men and women, whose ignorance or un
belief prevents them from reading the It

! swcred not a word, but, taking acandle from Pto
table, walked up 'stairs, tracing' his friends and
myself staring at one another." _
. FRUITS or DemeStox---A respectable man
from the northern'part' of Maine recently inform
ed the Editor, of the Congregational Journal, that
in the town in Which ha lives, four hundred pro

which swept over the place like the resistless tor

Cenioiis Pnl Luso} , in eSt. Ey eget a r.Y-rs.— Dr.
Ryan at ti recent lecture'atthe Royal Poi) technic
Institution. London, informed his hearers that the
greatest evaporation "of water was by heat consid-.
&ably below the temperature of red hot iron. lle•
illustrated thiS by pouting Water into a ;define:it
crucible, at a'White heat. i The Water instead of
becorningisteani and rapidly evaporating, immedi
ately assumed the spheroidal condition, like' olid
atoms, and continued in a 'violent , state of action
until the imlatinunt , cooled down ; when sinidgly
the waterdmeceme converted into steam with
nietise violence. -This very. corious expi;fitrietit
was first performed, vre.believe, about fifteen years'
ago, Purls; by.,Monsieur Pouillet. It was also.
'performed in Afneriea, especially with - a view of
accounting for ',learn boiler explosions. When the
fire has lien fanned with too intense viiemenci.,
and ihemetabfirst heated beyond the steam-foim
ing-point,jand is subsequently cooled down to that'
point, then vast quantities of steam are' suddenly .
evolved with immense violence. Dr. Ryan exhib
ited on (lie same occasion, another curious experi
ment ; hei converted water into ice, in a vessel at
glowing red heat. This depends on the very ra.
pid erapoyaticin of.sulpliurous acid, which has long .
been employed to produce cold. A .tleep platina
capsule was brought to .a glowing heat, and at the
same mompent liquid sulphurous add was poured
into the same. Tho acid begins to boil at the
freezing Point, and its'evaporation produced 'such
an inten+ degree of cold, that a lump o ice was
immediately, formed, and was from the red hot
vessel, hailed round the lecture room.. :Such mat
ters convi nce Us that there is' yet -much more in
