    The Concent t,tclr In I lie Vrlt.
On approaching the roads of James Town in
the Island of St. Helena, your attention is at
tracted y an enormous ladder, that extends
from the town beneath to a fiirt directly over
1 1 10 tawn, on the wimmil of a liill 80(1 feet hiirh.
On inquiry, I found llmt sentinel were placed
both below and above, for the purpose of preven
ting any one ascending or descending without
an order from the town major. This regulation
was adopted in omserpiervcc of Hie number ot
ii-ccinVnls, attended with fatal consequence,
that had occurred. Together whh a -companion,
after dinner, 1 rambled down to the pined
liouse, and imv-mg fwud the town major there,
we oMamed an order to permit our ascent.
The ladder is composed -of 6tepa morel nan
three feet in width, and some four inches in
breadth, firmly fastened in aide f preat
ftrenitli. On either aide is a tintid rait, ol such
n wi(Hh that you can convet.icntly lay a hand
on cither side. The steps are upwards of m ;
inches ipartand fTcat numbers of them much
decayed. At regular distances are small pent
fur Tc.-tinp places. On one side, without the
ladder, a description of slide has been formed,
Ion which piillies are fixed, for tlie purpose, it
woirid seem, of raising; anything; from the town
beneath, or lowcrin;r from the fort above. The
fuceof the hill, against which the ladder is e
reeled, is extremely steep, so as utterly to pre
clude the idea of any ascent without artificial
men ns ; in places there are perfect precipices,
the rocks completely over-hanging.
At the bottom we found no sentry, and so pro
ceeded to ascend at once, hut had not attained
above the height of one hundred feet when we
heard a voice hailing us, and perceived a sentry
calling on s to return, who in his walk had
been concealed from us w hen below by an inter
filing projection. Down we hndtogo, and
liHving shown our pass, and satisfied the Cerbe
rus commencitl our ascent agnin. At first we
proceeded rapidly, but soon found that not to
answer, the height of each step caused consi
derable exertion. More slowly then we moved
jilonu, attained the third resting place, w here
we rented ourselves, nnd turned to view the
town beneath, with its narrow streets and con
fined situation, cowering, as it were, between
the two mighty hills that seemed to press it on
cither side.
Aloft we turned our eyes, anxiously wishing
ourselves at the top, but we had the best part of
the ascent yet to accomplish, and to our task
we once more went. As we attained a greater
height, we found the stepa getting more and
inure out of repair, in some places two or three
Meps together broken ; so that we had to clum
ber up the best way we could. On, on we
went, with alternate rests ; the town, the boy
and bhipping beneath gradually became more
minute, the moving bodies seeming al
most miles. When we reached within a hun
dred feeto! the top, the unusual fatigue almost
overpowered us; the dizzy height so atlected
us tlmt we felt as if we could scarcely preserve
ourselves from falling yet we persevered, and
did succeed in reaching the top.
A m.iment later one human being would have
passed into another world. My companion, who
was before me, had scarce passed the gato ot the
top, when he ('united, completely overcome, and
he afterward declared to me, that, for the Inst
hundred feet or so, nothing prevented his phy
sical energies from being overcome by the lu
ligue ami position he was in, hut the immediate
prospect of reaching a pluce of safety. Many
lives have been lost on this ladder, particularly
those of passengers, whom curiosity induced to
attempt the ascent. The artillerymen and gar
rirou of the fort are not, however used to going
up and down, exempt from casualties, and it
was only the very week before my visit to St.
Helena that an artilleryman was killed in at
tempting to descend the ladder against time for
u wager. Lvldcr Hill fort completely hangs
over the bay ; it is of great strength, and com
mands the road-stead beneath.
In the batteries are mounted generally eigh
teen twenty-four and thirty-two Kiiiiiders, but
i lu-re .ire tome few guns of a larger calibre. A
finguliir accident happened a few years previ
ous on this ladder. A passenger from one of
the ships in the bay had ascended to the fort, and
looking from tho nunparts of one of the ba'te
ries, perceived his vessel beneath, and thought
he could reach her with a stone, but in his at
tempt to do ho, overbalanced himself, and fell
trout the awful height, being dashed literally to
pieces in the full. After passing an hour at the
fort, we descended, but by the road, which is
till in a zigzag manner in the side of the hills.

Pim.Anrrriit a, February 10,
IOR twenty year I was severely afflicted with
Tr.TTKH on tho Face and Head: the disease
commenced when I wa seventeen year old, and
continued until the Full of I8:tfi, varying in vio
lence, hut without ever disappearing. During imrst
of the time, great part of my face was covered with?
the eruption, frequently attended with vio'ent itch
ing; my head swelled at limes until it fill ns if il
would burst the swelling was so gie.it, that I conl.f
scarcely get my hat on. During the long period
that I was afflicted with the disease, I used a great
many a plication, (among them several celebrated
prep nation-) as well as taking inward remedies,
I including a number nf buttles of ftwaini's Panacra,
Extract of Sarxopori'a, Sic, In fact, it would be
impossible to enumerate all Ihe medicine I used.
I was also uudet the care nf two of the most dis
tinguished physicians of this ciiy, hut without re
( reiving much benefit, and I despaired uf ever being
cured. In the fill of lS:ir,, the disease at the time
being very violent, I commenced using the Rnxe
Ointment, (prepared by Vaughan Si Davis.) In
' a few applications the violent itching ceased, the
swelling abated, the i ruptioii began to disappear,
and before I had used m jar the di-ease wa entirely
( cmed. It has now l-en nearly a viar and a half
since, and there is not a vetign nf the diseae re
! iiiaiuiuu. except Ihe scars from the deep pits formed
hv the disease. It is imp. ssible for me to describe
in a certificate the severity of the disease ami my
Mtlfi ring, but f will 1 pie .sed to give a fuller c-
count to unv person wanting further satisfaction,
who will cult on me. At the lime I couunHiiced
using the Rose OiutiiK iil I would have given hun
' dieds of do'lais to la- rid of the disease. Since u
sing it, I have reeumineliiled it to sever il ersoiis,
(among them my mother, who hail the disease bad
ly on Ih'I ami.) who were a I cured bv it.
