An Oddity of the last Century. The editor of a recent edition of Lady Mary Wortley Montague's Letters gives tho following account of the Earl of-Pom-broke, a great oddity o'f a hundred years ago: Marrying for the third lime at seven ty-fivc. ho uiaiutaincd i-trict dominion o vcr a wife, vrkoni other pcoplo thought safely arrived nt jcara of discretion, and quite Ot to take care of herself Sho had leave to visit in an evening, hut must never, on account, stay out a miuutc la tcr than ten o'clock, his supper hour. One uight. however, the t-taved till pa?t twelve, lie declined supping, tclleii s the servants it could not be ten o clock, a their lad? was not come home. When at last she came in a terribh fright and be gan making a thousand apologies?, "Mj dear," snid he, very coolly, "you are un der a mistake, it is but jut ten; your watch, I see, goes too fast, and so does mine: we must have the man to nsotrow to act them to rights, rueauwbile, let u go to supper." His example on another occasion might bo worth lolloK'.ut;. KJt all the iJiude- nnd-Per.-ian laws cj-tallifbcd in his house, the mo-t peremptory via", that any ber vant who once cot druuk should he in stautly discharged, no pardon printed, no esiuse listened to let an old foot man, who had hved with him many years, wouli sometimes indulge in a pot of ale extraordinary, trusting to the wilful blinduos which he saw as.-uuicd when convenient.

I really fear I'm destined To live alone and free : Of all the men who grace the earth, Not one seems made for me. Friends say that I was fastidious : Walking through the brake I passed "Many stately reeds," and now must lake: "A crooked stick at last." There was Mr. Smith, lite merchant, Sosnc years ago, l hey said, Would hate deemed himself a happy man, Could, he with me have wed. But f, like many others, .

The propriety of selecting officer of the same nationality to command troop who do not fully understand our lan guage, is fairly illustrated in tho case of a German belonging to one of our regi ments, who bad been detailed to guard duty. "Sentinel," said the officer of tho day, "your duty at this place is to salute all officers according to their rank, to keep Gro from approaching the magazine, and in case the enemy appears, you aro to discharge your musket and run to the camp. Do you understand!" "Yes, Lieutenaut," replied tho worthy German. It appeared, a little later, on bein questioned, that he understood bo had been instructed "to shoot all officers of rank, aud then eet fire to tho magazine; and if he saw an enemy to run awayt" One Family's Quota for the War.

Aver Sir: I have taken your Pills with great benefit, for the listlesuo$., languor, loss of appetite, and Bilious headache, which has of late years overtaken me in the spring. A few doses of your Pills cured me. I have used your Cherry Pectoral many years in my family for coughs and colds with unfailing success.

In cases of disordered functions of the liver, causing headache, indigestion, coHtivne.-s, and the great variety of diseases that follow, they are a surer remedy than any other. In all cafes where a purgative remedy is required, I confidently recommend thsse Pills to the public, as superior to any other I have- ever found. They are sure in their operation, and perfectly safe .qualities which make them an invaluable article for public use. I have for many years known your Cherry Pectoral as the best Cough medicine in the world ; and these Pills are in no wiso inferior to that admirable preparation for the treat ment of diseases."

With what feelings of rejoicing I write can only be imagined when you realize what I havo suffered, and how long. " Never until now have I been free from this loathsome disease in some, shape. At times it attacked my eyes, and made me almost blind, besides the unendurable pain ; at others it settled in the scalp of my head, and destroyed my hair, and has kept me partly bald all my days; sometimes it cams out in my face, and' kept it for months a raw sore. "About nine weeks ago I commenced taking your Ca thartic Pills, and now am entirely free from the complaint. My eyes are well, my skin is fair, and my hair has com. menced a healthy growth ; all of which makes me feel already a new person.

I had failed of any relief by my Physician, and from every remedy I could try; but a few doses ot your Pills have completely restored me to health. I have given them to my children for worms, with the best ef fects. They were promptly cured. I recommended them to a friend for costiveness, which had troubled him for months ; he told me in a few days they had cured him. You make the best medicine in the world ; and I am free to say so."

"Sir: I have great satisfaction In assuring you that mysdf and family have been very much benefited by your medicines. My wife was cured, two year since, of a se vere and dangerous cough, by your Cherrt Pectoral, and since then has enjoyed perfect health. My children have several times been cured from attacks of the Influ enza and Croup by it. It is an invaluable remedy for these complaints. Your Cathartic Pills have entirely cured me from a dyspepsia and costiveness, which has grown upon me for some years, indeed, this cure is much more important, from the fact that I had failed to get relief from the best Physicians which this section of the country affords, and from any of the numerous reme dies I had taken.

I feel in better health now than for some years before, which I attribute entirely to the effects of your Cathartic Pills. Yours with great respect, LUCIUS V. METCALF."

Their certificates are published in my American Almanac. vd"5ih the Agents bebw ntiiafcd are pleased to fumi.h free lo all inquiring. Annexed tvc fcive Directions for their use in the complaints which ttitfy have been found Xucnta.' For CosTivafchSS. TiJje one or vxa riUgfOi such quantity ar, to pently move the bowels. Gorfi tivencss is frequently t&e aggravating cause of Piles, and the cure of one complaint is the cure of both. Xo person can feel well while under p. costive habit of body. Hence it should be, as it can be, promptly relieved. Fok 1)ysiiusia, which is sometimes the cause of Castittness, and always uncomfortable, take mild ' doses trom one to tour to stimulate tiicstomacn and liver into healthy action. They will do it. and the heartburn, bodybttrn, and sotdbzim of dyspepsite will rapidly 'disappear. When it has goue, don't forget what cured you. . For a Fork Stomach, or Morbid Iitartio'ji of the Bowels, which produces general depression of the spirits aud bad health, take from four to eight Pills at firrft, and smaller doses afterwards, until activity j and strength is restored' to the system. Foil NKitvoiTSNuss, bine iiead.ycke. .savsea. Pain in the Stomach, Buck, or Side, take from four to' eight pills on going to bed. If thev do not oper ate sufficiently, tr.kc more tho next day until thcy do. These complaints will be swept oat from the system. Don't wear thte and their kindred dis orders because your stomach is foul. Foil Scuofula, EiiYsirELAS, and all Diseases of the Skin, take the Pills freely and frequently, to keep the bowels open. The eruptions will gener ally soon begin to diminish and disappear. Many dreadful ulcers and sores have been healed up by the purging and purifying effect of these Pills, and some disgusting diseases which seemed to saturate the whole system have completely yielded to their influence, leaving the sutferer in "perfect health. Patients! your duty to society forbids that ybiV should parade yourself around the world covered with pimples, blotches, ulcers, sores, and all or any of the unclean diseases of the skin, because your system wants cleansing. To PuniFY the Blood, they arc the best mtds cine ever discovered". They should be taken freely and frequently, and the impurities which sow tho seeds of incurable diseases will be swept out of the' .system like chatf before the wind, liy this property they do as much good in preventing 'sickness us by the remarkable cures which they arc making every where. . , . LiVEtt Complaint, Jaundice, and all liitioiu Affections, arise from some derangement either torpidity, congestion, or obstructions of the Liver. Torpidity and congestion vitiate the bile and rcmW it unfit for digestion. This is disastrous to tho health, and the constitution is frequently under mined by no other cause. Indigestion is the symp tom. Obstruction of the duct which empties the bile into the stomach causes the bile to overflow into the blood. This produces Jaundice, with a long and dangerous train of evils. Costiveness, or alternately costiveness and -diarrhrca, prevails. Feverish symptoms, languor, low spirits, weariness, restlessness, and melancholy, with sometimes ic ability to sleep, and sometimes great drowsiness sometimes there is severe pain in the side ; the skin and the white of the eyes become a greenish yellow ; the stomach acid; the bowels sore to the "touch; the whole system irritaole, with a tendency to fever, which may turn to bilious fever, bilious colic, biliourf diarrhoea, dysentery, &e. A medium dose of three: or four Pills taken at night, followed by two or three in the morning, and repeated a few days.will remove the cause of all these troubles. It is wicked to suffer such pains when you can cure them for 25 cents. Rheumatism, "Gout, and all Inflammatory Fe vers, are rapidly cured- by the purifying effects of these Pills upon the blood and the stimulus which they afford to the vital principal of Life. For thesq and all kindred complaints they should be taken in mild doses, to move the bowels gently, but freely. As a Dinner Pill, this is both agreeable and useful. No Pill can be made more pleasant to take, and certainly none has been made more cflectuai'to the purpose for which a dinner pill is employed. PREPARED BY 1K. J. C.
