ride, during which tee passed through a rich,
well watered and highly cultivated country, the
esuberAnt vegetation promising it most magnif

but to load up the "pop gun" and give them art•

joy character, actions and motives, whenever
assailed by envy, slander and malevolence. The
Globe makes an attack on me in the lust issue,
with a sort of Jackass•ltycitanistn, which would
be terrific if it were not so ludicrous, and which
was intended no doubt to annihilate me. Ne•

my motives or misstate my position, both of
which have been attempted by the Globe, and
this has induced me to correct the misrepresen

wronged or injured him, in word or action, I
will promptly make the acknowledgment and
olfnr the necessary apology. But whilst not a•
shamed to acknowledge my error when wrong,
I MID nut afraid to detend mysell when falsely,

editor of the Globe has done so, I assert, aid

hands, and no man has received it more prompt

call me a "self•coneeited, arrogant pedagogue"
—and there was a time whon the "idle acrib•

very acceptable with the aforesaid editor, and
by no means discreditable to the columns of the

Now I do not know that I ever asserted

assert for a fact, a matter which admits of such
serious doubts with myself; yet, nevertheless,
I claim to have enough Christianity to prevent
me front slandering and vilifying my neighbor,
without .y pretext whatever; and if he will
read that Book which is the foundation of the
Christian's hope, he will find that "all liars" are

substantiated ; in point of vulgarity, blackguar

but that part of it which has evidently drawn
most largely on the imaginative faculties, and
which seems to have been written with the most
spirit is more readily attributable to the eaves
dropping propensities of some one of his petty I

strange sounds, and who might very readily at
such a time have mistaken his own image re- !

ed to; the resemblance heire so strong that it,
would have 'required no very great stretch of
the imagination ; however, if the editor assures
us that he is the bona fide author, he of course
is entitled to the credit ? but I rely much fear
that the effort on the part of his mental fami

Dr. !Yardman treats Consumption, Bronchi
tis, Asthma, Larryngittis end all disease; of the
throat mid lungs, fly medical Inhalation, lately
used in the Bromtun Hospital, London. The
great point in the treatment of all b man mala
dies is to get at the disease in the direct man
ner. All medicines are estimated by their ac
tion lit on the t igen requiring teliell
the important fact twit which Inhalation is ba
sed. If the stomach is diseased wo take
medicine directly into this stomach. If the lungs
aro diseased, breathe or inhale medicated va
pors directly into the lungs. Medicines are the
antidotes to disease and s ho u ld ho applied to
the very scat of disease. Inhalation is the np
plication of this principle to the treatment of
the lungs, or it gives us direct access to those
intricate air cells and tidies which lie out of
reach of every other means of administering
medicines. The reason that Consumption, and
other diseases of the lungs, have heretofore re
sisted all treatment has heen because they had
never been approached in a direct manner by
medicine. They were intended to act upon the
lungs and yet were applied to the stomach.—
Their action was intended to be local, and yet,
they were so administered that they should not
act eonstistutionally, expending immediate and
principal action upon the unuttending stomach,
whilst the foul ulcer, within the lungs were un
molested. Inhalation brings the medicine in
direct contact with the disease, without the
di-advantage of any violent action. Its appli
cation is simple, that it can be employed by the
youngest infant or feeblest invalid. It duos not
de n the stomach, or in terfero in the least de
gree with the strength, comfort, or business of
the patient. _ _ .
