There is a Rabinical tradition related by Fabri cius, that when Noah planted the vine, Satan at tended and sacrificed a sheep, a lion, an ape, and a sow. . These animals were to symbolize the gra dations of inebriety. When a man begins to drink he is meek and innocent as a lamb ; then becomes bold as a lion ; his courage is soon transformed in to tie foolishness f the ape; and at last he wal lows in the mire like the sow. F tnxs. A fellow having imbibed rather free ly, took it into his head that he eoald fly, and to get a good position, ascended a sign post and start ed. He was questioned next day as to how he liked flying. . "Oh '." said he, "it's nothing to fly, the lighting is the hardest part of the operation." .

By Inhalatios ine tapur anu curative properties oi medicines are directly addressed to the diseased organs of the in tegument. I do not advise the use of Medical In halation of any kind, to the exclusion of seueral treatment ; and although I consider it a useful ad juvant in the proper management of those fearful and often fatal diseases, yet I deem it very neces sary that each patient should have the benefit of botn general and local treatment. The success of my treatment in the above diseases, and the high character of the Institution over which I have so long had the honor to preside, are too well known to need any eulogy or comment from me. At the solicitation of many private and professional friends, through whose philanthropic aid the above cnariiy nas oecnlong and liberally supported. and alter due consideration, 1 have concluded to make such arrangements as will bring the benefits of my experience and treatment within the reach of all, and not confine myself, as heretofore, to those on ly who entered the Infirmary, or who were able to visit mc at my ofiice. Hoping therefore that the arrangement will give entire satisfaction, both to my protessional brethren and the public, I would respectfully announce in conclusion, that Iran now be consulted jiemonallif or ly Utter, on all dis eases as above, and that the medicines, the same as used in the Institution, prepared to suit each in dividual case.
