SARSAPARILLA.” Being poor, he w&* compelled

throughout the length and breadth of the land.
Unlike young 8. P. Townsend’*, It improve* with
age, and never changes, but for the better; becaoeo it
is prepared on scientific principle* by a iriecliie mas.
The highest knowledge of Chemistry, and the latest
discoveries of the Art, hare all been breaght into re*
quiution in the manufacture of the Old Dr.’s £ arsons*

ical men, contains medicinal properties, and some pro
perties which are inert or useless; and others, wmcb,
if retained in preparing It for use, prodode'fermenta
tion and acid, whieUis injurious to tho system. Some
of the properties of [Sarsaparilla are so volatile that
they entirely evaporate and are lost in the p repara
tion, if they are not preserved by a iciciuifld process,
known only to those;expetleneed in its maimfaeture.
Moreover these volatile principles, which fly oSla va
por, or ns an exhalation, under heat, are the very es
sential medical properties of the root, which gives to
Ualliu value. The!

is so prepared; that til tbg inert properties of the Sar

of becoming aeld or of fermentation, is extracted and
rejected; then every particle of medical virtue is secu

rendered ineapable of losing any of iu valuable aQd

as Elwood, whom Isaac Penzungto^'.intro
duces to Milton. 1 He will intrndnrj> na into
4 toLTdß’s nnraio room.
“ ‘ He [lsaac Pennington] had/ says EU
wood, ‘aa intimate acquaintance wuh Df.
Paget, aphyaician of note in Londoo, ami:
he with John Milton, a gentleman of great
note for • learning throughout- the 1 learned
world, for the accurate pieces he had writ*
ten on various subjects andfoccasioos.
' { “ This person, having filled a public sta
tion in tire fanner times, lived a private and
retired life in London, and, having Jost his
sight; kept always a man to read ier him,
‘which usually was the son of some gentle
man of his acquaintance, whom; in kindness
he took to improve in his learning.
« ( Thus, by the. mediation of-my fiiend
Isaac Pennington with Hr. Paget, and through
him with ,'John Milton, .was I pennitted to.
come to him, notasaservant to hirti, nor to
be in the house with him,- butcniy to hsve
the liberty of coming to'his house at certain
hours when I . mid read to hinusuclf
books aahe should, appoint, which was.all
the favour I. deored. . .. ’: .

for die sake'of Dr; Paget, who intrqdpced
me. RsofTsaao Pennington who recommend*
ded me, to both' of whom he bore H goodre
gpecL And, having inquired divers things
of me, with iespai;t io my. former progres
sion in learning, he dismissed me, to provide
myself with snch accommodations as
be most suitable to my stndies.
“‘ I went, therefore, and took lodgings aa.
near tohisnonse (winch was then in Jewen
street) as I conveniently could, and from
thenceforward went every day in the after*
noon, except on the first day of the week,
and, sitting by him in his dining room, reaa
to him such books in the Latin tongue as he
pleased to have me read. ,
u ‘ He perceived with what earnest desire
I had pursuedleaming, gave me not only all
the encouragement, but all the help he could.
For,’having a curious ear, he understood by
mv tone when I understood what. I read and
•when I did not, and accordingly would stop
me, examine me, and open the most dim
cult passages to me.* ”
At another, time,ln 1655,' when the plague
was in London, Milton derires to‘escape, to
the country, anil- consults his friend Hlfwood,
who writes:
TBB MANUSCI.II i OF LOST.
11: Wherefore, some little time before I
went to Aylesbury jail, I desired by my
quondam Master Milton to take anhousefor
him in the neighborhood where I dwelt, tha
be might go out of the city for uie safety of
himsetf and his family, the pestilence then
grovnng hot in London. I took a.jtretty box
for him in Giles Chaifoht, a milii from me,
of which I gave hiin notice, and intended to
have waited on him and seen him. well set*
tied, but was prevented by that imprison
ment But now being.released- and retain
ed home, I soon made a visit to'hirn to wel
come him Into the country. ...Jkfter some
common discourse had passed between us,
ho called for a manuscript of .his, which,
having brought; he delivered to me, bidding
me take it home with me and read it at my

him with my judgment thereupon.’
“ Now, what does tha reader think young
Eilwood carried in his grey coat pocket
across the dikes and hedges and through the
green lanes of Giles Chaliont on that autumn
day. 7 Let us look further: ‘When'l coma

it was that excellent poem which he entilled

some further discocrse. about it, I.pleasantly,
said to him, f Thou hast said much here of

been lost; for, ‘after the sickness was over,’
continues Ell wood, ; and the city welicleans

returned thiihor; ana when afterwards I
waited on him.thBxe, which I seldom failed
of doing whenever my occasions drew me
to London, he showed me his second poem
called: Parodist Gained; and, in a pleasant
tone, said to me, 1 This is owing to yon, for
you put it into ray head by the question* you
put to me at Chaifont, which before I had
not thought of.’ ”
THE VILLAGE PATEIAECH.'
The following is a truthful and instructive
view of age dit solving in death. It is copied
from a book just published by J. Snow, of
London, entitled “ views ofCalvary:”
Edward B——; the name nmttewnctj
few would recognize the humble, grey-head
ed deacon of the little ohmcL at ——; but
that name was long wnce “ written in the
Lamb’s book of life.” -in alittld
cottage, which, like its.tenant,* bore the
marks of age. lived this venerable Christian.
Attached to the cottage was a garden which,
like his heart, wax wuli cultivated and fruit
ful. Whilst his hands were going through
tho vkrions processes of horticulture, .Ed
ward read many a commentary, on passages
in the sacred Scriptures. Looking ;u the
scenery and the man, I have oiien fait the
sentiment,
“ Earth smiles around, with boundlessbonn
tybless’d,
And heaven beholds itsimagemhis breast”
Probably be had never read the lino,
‘•'To look through nature up to nature’s
God,”
but he did it notwithstanding. His life was
a commentary on the genuineness of .his
faith. Humble, prayerful,, deeply attached
to the ordinances of religion, and benevolent
even beyond bispower—but Edward econo
mized within view of the' cross, that he
might help to spread its ‘saving^-truths—all
who knew him, read in him a “Rving epis
tle of Christ” Speaking once of the clergy
man of. a neighboring parish, he said,‘‘l
have known him fox many years—he is a
benevolent man and a kind master, and his
moral character is all, th« can bo-wished;
but 0, *iTj I wish ho would preach more
