subsequently became the target for the invisible
assassin. Hit letter conclude! thus :
"With reference to the rontenti of the papers, I
will take the liberty to remark, that they were
of a nature to enable me to predict, more than
six months ago, to the Hon. David Henshaw,
Messrs. Clinton De Witt of New York, and Gran
ville Parker of Worcester, my counsellors, and
many others, the present state of affairs in Mexi
co; and I now confidently state, that within
twelve months from this date Santa Anna will
be Viceroy of Mexico. And further, let the
Spanish government look to it, or Cuba will
change masters. With reference to my predic
tions as to Santa Anna's position within twelve
months, I wish to insert this clause ; Providing
he doe not sell, or has not told, hit knowledge of
English intrigue to the Spanish government."
This is certainly an extraordinary epistle, and
as regards the prediction now verron).
Ccmors Eitectsj of Water. A late num
' ber of the Water-Cure Journal, among a varit
' ty of interesting matter, contains an article on
the 'Effects nf Water in Intoxication,' founded
on a very remarkable esse related by Dr. Cur-
rie in his Narrative published 50 years ago. The
fact? occurred at Barhadnes, ate thus stated :
" A pentlemnn of litis island, whose name was
Week, a great votary of Bacchus, was in the
practice,' from fifteen to twenty years, of piling
ing into cold water when he rose from hisbnt
tie, and actually going to sleep in a trough full
of water, with his head supported on a kind of
wooden pillow made for the pnrpose, above the
surface. When he dined abroad, and had not
the convenience of his own trough, he used to
strip of! his coat, waistcoat and shirt, and sit ex
posed in the open air, and in thnt situation go to
eleep, whether it rained or not And sometimes
he went snd bathed in the nearest adjoining
pond, to which he generally required assistance
to be conveyed. TlioefFi et of this practice was,
thnt instead of experiencing debility, lassitude,
head-ache, and nausea, he found himself on a
waking, cheerful and refreshed, and tree tmm
all the effect of intoxication. In the year 17
69. dining one day abroad, he got alternately
drunk nod sober llire several times before mid
night, each time recovering U sobriety by im
mersing himself, and sleeping in cold water;
and on awakening returning to the company.
The Inst time, after supper, he was so immoder
ately intoxicated, that he insisted on his coin
pan ions undressing him and carrying him them
selves to the pond. They carried him accord
ingly in a chair, snd set him up to the chin in
water, where he continued upwards of an hour
a person support lncr him. I had this last cir
cumstance from a gentleman, one of the party
whose veracity may be entirely depended on.
"At home,' however, he used, as I have already
mentioned, a trough made for ihe purpose, with
a bmi-h in it as. a pillow, having been nearly
drowned whenjsleeping in his pond, from the
negro, who was appointed to watch him, hav
ing himself fallen asleep. In this watery lied
he would sleep, one, two, three or even more
hours, experiencing always tho greatest refresh
ment. U s wife and family, when they wished
liiin to change his quarters, used to draw out the
plug and let the water rim nil, when he awoke
and humorously complained of ihe loss of his
bed-clothes. At length this expedient henan to
lose its effects in rousing him, and one time he
continued to sleep in his etrit) troiijfh. In con
sequence of this he was seized with extreme ri
gors and chills, followed by a fever attack of
rheumatism, which a fleeted him a long time,
and made him desist from the practice in future,
Rut to the end of his life he was in the habit
of sitting, when intoxicated, with bis clothes o
pen, and sometimes quite naked, exposed to the
wind and rain. This extraordinary character
died of apoplexy about three weeks ago, aged
sixty-three."
On this remarkable case Dr. Shew mskes
some observations which we wou'd ropy at
length but for want of room. He defines intox
ication, considered in reference to its effects on
the body, as a state of fever, paused hy the sti.
mtilns drank, and maintiins that water is the
grrstest febrifuge or reading agent in nature.
In many cases of drunkenness were a man chu
not walk or remember long enough to speak a
sentence throned, a remrdy msy be found in a
good Bhower bath. The man above referred to
wbb enabled to endure tho cold bath in conse
quence of the unnatural heat generated by the
alcohol ; but he was not thereby enabled to en
dure fatigue ; on the contrary he was disposed
to slepp. To a well man it would have been
exceedingly dangerous to lie thus in the water;
but the drunkard was able to endure it on ae
count of the extraordinary amount of heat in his
system. Such in substance is Dr. Shew's the
ory. The fact are certainty very curious.
TEMPERANCE.
THE ri.EDGI.
Diss Father think me not unkind
When I entreat you so ;
Oh! drink ro more and then you'll find
A home where'er you go.
Thus spake in tenderness the child
The drunkard'a heart was moved :
He signed the pledge ! he wept be smiled
He kissed the boy he loved.

Twelve Brandreth Pills rubbed down in a half pint
of molasses, cured a little boy nf an ulcer of Ilia free

a dnien doctors had tried to cure the poor parents
would hae given half they were worth to have had
