"Metry In Ilaitri Repent at Leisure. Considerable interest is excited among the relatives of a certain Miss JAjoett, in Ches ter county, in a subject in wbicb ibe commu nity at large is also interested. The lady in qoealion has made application for a divorce, end the bill is about to come before the Sen ate. The circumstances of the care are pe coiiar. Mist Jaquett, about a year ago, was at ■ small parly with a certain Mr. Bacblell, where the one publicly challenged tbe other lo get married—by way of a joke. Tbe tatt ler was mutually accepted; the gentleman and lady jumped into a vehicle, posted off to * qeighboring clergyman—tbe knot Wae tied —but the lady, having ihowed her spirit, de clared she would carry the joke DO further. Both parlies soon found they bad oarried the joke too far. Mr. Bachtell was a gentleman of property in Obio. He'could no longer make title to bia real estate. The young lady, who reigned as a village belle, soon found she bad been trifling with a serious matter. It wee an aot of youthful indiscre tion for which tbe law had provided no remedy. It should be said in extenuation of the young lady, that her ignorance of Ibe bind ing obligation of tbe ceremony is not e mat ter of so mucb surprise, but it oau hardly be doubted that Mr. Bachteli was well posted op, and is therefore the parly responsible for the act.

Even, however, in the lsst stages, in halation afTords extraordinary relief to the suffering attending this fearful scourge, which annually destroys ninety fire thousand per sons in the United States atone; and a correct oalcolaiion shows that out bf the present pop ulation of tbe earth, eighty millions are des tined to fill the consompuve'a grave. Truly the quiver of dealb baa n? arrow so fatal at Consumption. In all ages it has been the great enemy of life, for it spares neither age nor eex, but sweeps off alike the brave, 1 the beautiful, the graceful, and the gifted.— By the help of that Supreme Being, from whom cometh every good and perfect gift, I am enabled to ofler to the afflcled ■ perma nent and speedy cure iu Consumption. Tbe first cause of tubercles is from impure blood, and tbe immediate effect, produced by their disposition in the longs, is to prevent the free admission of sir into which cauees a Weakened the entire system. Then surely it is more rational to expect greater good from medij cines entering the cavities of the lungs than from those administered throogh the stom ach; the patient will always find tbe lungs free and the breathing easy after inhaling remedies. True, inbhiation it not a local remedy, nevertheless it acts constitutionally, and with more -power andesertaTnty tbsu rem edies administered by the stomach. To prove the powerful and direct influence of Ibis mode of administration, chloroform Inhaled will entirely destroy sensibility in a few min utes, paralyzing the entire nervous system, so that a limb may be amputated without tbe shghtcst pain ; inhaling the ordinary burning gas will destroy Itle if) k few tiAurs. The inhalation of attiraonia wilt rouse the system when fainting or apparently dead.— The odor of many of the medicines is per ceptible in the skin a few minutes after being inhaled, and may be immediately detected in the blood. A convincing proof of the constitutional effects of inhalation, is tbe fact that sickness is always produced. breath ing foul air. fs oot this positive evidence that proper remedies, carefully prepared and judiciously administered through the lungs, should produce the most happy results'? Du ring eighteen years' practice, many thous ands, suffering from diseases of the lungs and throat, have been under my care, and I have affeoted many remarkable cures, even after the sufferers had baen pronounced ill (he last stages, which fully satisfies me that consumption is no longer h lata I disease.— My treatment of consumption is original, and founded oil long experience and h thorough investigation. My perfect acquaintance with tbe nature of tubercles, &c., enables me to distinguish readily the various forma of dis ease that stimulate consumption, Slid apply the proper remedies rarely being mistaken even in a single case. This familiarity in connection with certain pathological and mi croscopic discoveries, enables me to relieve tbe lunge from the effects of contracted cheets; to enlarge the chest, purify the blood, impart to it renewed Vitality, giving energy and tone la the entire system.
