The Meience ?f Neurology. *
TttktEditor oj Vit Tribune:
Vy attention hat recently been called to this aci
\tvsi' hy the |>re!imiminary Lectures which Dr.
$nchanan bus been delivering at Clinton Halj.
rJotil the arrival of Dr. B. I had no definite idea
of system. 1 did not indeed know that my
.viLPtt ha-i been found or that his ideas were any
lilin* more than a new edition of .Mesmerism illus?
trated b', tnmbulic experiments.
[ learned to my surprise that Dr. Buchanan has
nolhing to du with the somnambulism, clairvoyance
and purveyance of Mesmerism?that he sloes not
jirerer.d to exercise any powers over any human
being by the exercise of his will?and that he re?
gard ^ the proceedings of Mesmer and his follow?
ers n;- eminently unphilosophical. I have always
ihou^iit thai experiments made merely for the pur
j^sc of adding to our stock of the marvelous, in?
stead of explaining the laws of Nature, were not
ift much service to the cause of truth. I was there?
fore disposed to let the operations of unimal mag
:>etism pass for the present unnoticed, and wait till
the chaos had been organized into something that
ciigbt properly he called a science. I was not
unwilling to believe, but I could not contrive how
to believe what I could not comprehend.
With these sentiments I listened to Dr. Buehan
anan's Leclares and was gratified to learn that he
he had taken similar view6. Dr. B. has taken an
entirely new field in the scientific world, and en?
joy? the enviable distinction of having brought
forth a new and wonderful scienco. This science,
as I underhand it, offers a series of principles
which explai:,s the mechanism of the human body,
and deveiopes those rocondite truths which have
heretofore escaped the attention of Physiologists.
As I regard it, the science which Dr. Buchanan
teaches is nothing more or less than Physiology,
enlarged or perfected. It is that science which
constitutes the foundation of Medicine?the know
ledge of all the functions of the human body.?
My views upon this subject have been gathered
frurn the Doctor's Lectures, from experiments in
nrivate which I have witnessed, and from a small
pamphlet in which he bus laid down the outlines
of his system. I consider Neurology as the com?
plete science of the mind in connection with the
body One half of the propositions of this science
go to explain the causes of all our various emotions,
thoughts and fueling*. This is done upon the
Phrenological principle that every distinct faculty
has a dtsti:it-t organ in the bruin. But mark the
distinction between Neurology and Gall's system
of Pbrenwlogy.
Dr. Gull located ths* different organs by com?
paring the forms of different heads to ascertain
what parts of the brain were large in men who had
any remarkable faculty or passion. Gall's crani
ology was called lh<? doctrine of the bumps, and as
moat persons doubted whether the bumps would
indicate the true form of the brain, this procedure
was considered very inaccurate and uncertain. By
these observations a system of Phrenology was
formed and the head mapped out into different re
r.jr.'-rorrcsponding to the supposed organs. An
Rt:raist? then stepped in to say tbat there were no
inch organs in th? brain, and that the phrenologi?
cal d'vijion? were entirely fanciful. They said,
too, that if such organs did exist, the skull was too
toick and irregular to admit of our judging their
me with correctness by the outside of the head,
and thii9 Phrenology, which was a groundless theo?
ry, was impracticable if true.
Thus the question stooci between the friends and
the opponents of Phrenology, while the public
looked on?willing to believe and waiting for fur?
ther evidence. That evidence has now been ad?
duced. Dr. Buchanan has discovered a ?pecies
of-evidence which must put to rest forever the
question whether Phrenology be true or false. He
hasdiscovered that by the influence of the human
hard by Galvanism, by Magnetism and by various
medicinal ngents, the brain can be so strongly ex?
cited as to cause all or any of its convolutions to
set with increased power.
This increased energy of the organ makes us
clearly conscious of the nature of its function and
determines the exact locality of that function. It
we wish to know whether the phrenological organ
of Destniei iveness is correctly located, Dr. Bu?
chanan excites that part of the bruin in some per?
son who ir, impressible, and asks him what effect
itproducer. upon his feelings. If the person upon
whom he operates is very impressible, it will not
be necessary to ask, as the feelings will be too
strong to bo restrained and will be displayed in the
countenance or in action. By this experiment
Dr. R. has discovered that what has been called the
?rgan of Destructivene&a manifests functions of a
somewhat different character, and that the true
organ of Destntctiveness lies in a, different position
i'rom that u> which it has been assigned by Phren?
ologists. By exciting the urp/an of Benevolence,
?r. B. finds that it produces kindnes.? and ail the
RO^leelipgs which have been ascribed to it by
Gall and his followers. Exciting the organ oi
Color produces a great fondness for colors ; excit?
ing Calculation produces a disposition to count or
calculate; exciting Language produces a disposi?
tion to talk. Thus it is established with the most
positive certainty that some of the organs given by
Pha-nologiots are correct and others tire not. Here
1 i*st upon n solid basis. Phrenology is at last a
science of positive certainty.
There ure not many persons in whom the organs
fan be thus excited, but when they are, tbe results
af*9n striking and distinct as to make a perfect
- anOustration of the science. Over some persons
Dr. 13. < y. , an almost necromantic influence,
fyTjhe sudden excitement whieh he produces in
the different parts of the bruin. 1 have seen the
countenance suddenly change under his operations
if he held absolute control over the feelings.?
By a great number of such experiments Dr. B. has
thoroughly tested the whole phrenological system,
and established that it contains manv truths and a
great ninny errors. As Dr. B. excites the differ?
ent organs with such facility, there is no end to the
number of curious experiments which may be
made in this manner, or to rite number of discove?
ries which may be thus established.
Dr. B., proceeding in a bold and philosophical
manner, has found this process of careful experi?
ment upon the brain the most profound and beau?
tiful system of mental puiiufjopuy which has yet
been offered to mankind. Computed to this sys?
tem, the sjstem of Gall was but a fragment of the
true phHea ; hy. According to the system of Dr.
Buchanan, the brain does not consist of a few or?
gans hing in the manner described by the phre?
nological f> tst, but consists of a great number ot
convolution*, which axe recognized by anatomists,
and whirh exercise different powers. The differ?
ent fibres of the some convolution als? have differ?
ent function*. The number of different functions,
therefore, is almost illimitable, instead of being
confined to thirty or forty. All the elements ol
human nature are associated with the action ol
portion of ths brain, and are located in the fibre*
of the different convolutions in a.very interesting
and peculiar manner. The association or coope?
ration of the different organs in consequenca oi

t'tieir positions makes a very interesting department
of this now philosophy. The principles of co?
operation established by Dr. B. are peculiarly
lieautiful and simple. His doctrines, extensive
and beautiful as they are, are tenfold more valuable
from the fact that they are all the result of experi?
ment, which fixeq them beyond tho possibility of
change.
But, as I have already remarked, the phrenolo?
gical principles constitute only one-half of the
new system which relates a- much to physiology,
j and which makes as great a revolution in that sci?
ence as in the principle:, aid details ?f phrenology.

Tolls on the New-York Canals.?The Whig
Canal Board in their eelcbrnted Report in 1840,
on the subject of the Enlargement of the Erie
Canal andjthc future prospects of income from ail
of the State Canals, made an estimate of the pro?
bable receipts for tolls, on the basis of an increase
of 7% percent annually for 10 years, as then proved
by the experience of a few past years.
The following was their estimate of Cannl re?
ceipts for each yeur from 18-10 tu 184o"?com?
pared with 7 years previous:
Receipts for Tolls. Estimated Receipts for Tolls.
In 1833 .... .?[190,843 In 1340 .. $1,733,975
" 1831.. ..1,187,130 " 1841.... 2,077,493
" 1332-1,009,0011 ?' 1842....1,853,261

" 183C-1,504.381 ? 1846.... 2.032,07:2
The actual receipts in 1840 were $1,775.747,
and in 1841 $2,034,?32 ; the present year it is pro?
bable they will amount to about $1,750,000; thus
showing a result for three years comparing more
remarkably close with the estimate, than any
litnilar document on record with which we are ac?
quainted. It will be recollected that it was made
oy Mr. S. B. Ruggles and his associates in the
Canal Board, who have since been the constant
hemo of abuse and misrepresentation in the Al
nany Argus, by the enemies of our Canal Commis?
sioners.
This calculation of the Whig Canal Board con?
trasts favorably with that of our Governor elect
W'm. C Bouck, and his Loco Focoassociate*,with
regard to the cost of the Krie Canal Knlargement.
Their estimate was $12,41(5,150, whereas the cost,
?is proved by contracts, will amount to at least
twenty-four millions, making the trilling difference
)f about, twelve millions of dollars, or nearly one
Hundred percent, more than the estimate of these
Loco-Foco Canal Commissioners.
Mn. MlLLER, tiif. WORLD-DJESTROYJIR.?All
exchange paper states the following facts respect?
ing this personage:?He owns a farm near White?
hall in this Stale, around which he is building a
very substantial brick wall. A person offered him
$2,000 for the farm, and nor to take possession
till after 1843: the prudent prophet refused; how?
ever, ulleging that such an ofT-r, depending a.s it
does, upon a future event, is nothing more than
gambling.
This manifests but little fuith in Iiis own predic?
tions. He was born in Pittsfield, Massachusetts,
in 1781, and is, consequently, sixty one years of
age. At thirty he. entered ihe army, and was pre?
sent in several actions on the frontier during the
late war with Greut Britain. He was then a very
wild character, and his religious opinions were
very loose. He had reached the grade of Cap?
tain, when, at the close of the war, he left the ar?
my, and settled at Hampton, near Whitehall. He
was made Sheriff of the county in which he te- i
ded. He still otvns rhc farm upon which he first
settled at this place. About thirty year-; uro. he
set abortt searching the Scriptures with a view to
refute them, an.i thi3gavo him bisextensive know?
ledge of the prophecies. Tu 1810 he w?s con?
verted, and ever since then became a c!o?e ?tu
dentof the prophecies and of history. In 1822,
he says, he became fully convinced that the world
would come to an end in 1343; and about six or i
seven years afterward he began to preach and
write about it, and continued to do so till this day.
He has written a great number of works on his
peculiar views.

IMMUTABILITY OF THOUGHT.
A caia occurred in a town' in Germany, a year
or two before my arrival at G?ttinnen, and had
not then ceased to be a subject of conversation.
A yeuug v.oman of four or five-and-twentv, who
could neither read nor write, was seized with a
nervous fever; during which, according to the
asseverations of ail ihe Piiests and Monks of the
neighborhood, she became possessed, and, as it
appeared, by a very learned devil. She continued
incessantly talking Latin, Greek and Hebrew,
in very pompous tone?, and with most distinct
enunciation. Tin; ca??' bad attracted the particu?
lar attention of a young physician, and. by his
statement, manj eminent physiologists and psy?
chologists visited the town. ar.d cross-examined
this singular case on the spot. Sheets full of her
tavings were taken down from her own mouth,
and were found to consist of sentences coherent
and intelligible, '-aci. for itself, but with little or
no connection with ein h other. Of the Hebrew,
a small proportion only could he traced to the
Bible ; the remainder seemed to be Rabbinical
diaiect. All trick or conspiracy was out of the
question. Not only bad the young woman ever
been a harmless, simple creature, but .->he was evi
!<-::!iy laboring under a nervous fever. In the
;owu in which she had been residing for so many
years, a> a servant in different families, no solu?
tion presented itself. The young physician, how?
ever, determined to trace her past life, step by step;
for the patient herself was incapable of returning a
rational answer. He at length succeeded in dis?
covering the place where her parent? had lived ;
:raveled thither, found them deed, but an uncle
surviving:! and from him learned that the patient
iiad been charitably taken by an old Protestant
Pastor at nine years old. ar.d had remained with
him some years, even till the old man's death.
Of this Pastor the undo knew nothing, but that
he was a very good man. With great difficulty,
and after murii search, our young medical phi?
losopher discovered a niece of the Pastor's, who
hud iived with him as housekeeper, nnd had in?
herited his effects. Sim remembered the girl ;
related that her venerable uncle had been too in?
dulgent, and could not hear to have the girl
scolded ; that she was willing to have kept her.
hut that after her patron's death, the girl herself
refused to stay; Anxious inquiries were then, of j
course, made concerning the Pastor's habits, and
the solution of the phenomenon was soon obtained;
for it appeared, that it had been the old man's cu?
torn for years, to walk up and down a passage of j
his house, into which the kitchen door opened,
and read to himself, with a loud voice, out of his
favorite books. A considerable, number of these
were still in the niece's possession. She addr-d
that, he was a learned man, and a great Hebraist.
Among the books were found a collection of
Rabbinical writings, together with several of the
Greek and Latin Fathers; and the physician suc?
ceeded in identifying so many passages with those
taken down at the young woman's bedside, that no
doubt could remain in any rational mind, concern?
ing the true origin of the impressions made on her
nervous system.
This authentic case furnishes both proof and
instance that relics of sensation may exiat, for an
indefinite time, in a latent Mare, in the very same
order in which they were originally impressed;
and. as we cannot rationally suppose the feverish
slate of the brain to act in any other way than as
a stimulus, this fact, (and it would not bv difficult
? o adduce several of the ?ante kind,) contributes to
make it even probable that iill thoughts are, in
themselves, imperishable ; hikJ that if the intelli?
gent faculty should be rendered more compre?
hensive, it would require only a different and ap?
portioned organization, the body celestial inaread
of the body terreitrial, to bring before every hu?
man sou! the collective experience of its whole
past existence Ar.d thU?this, perchance, is the
dread hook of judgement, in whose mysterious
hieroglyphics every idle word is recorded ' Yea,
in the very nature of a living spirit, it may be
more possible that Hoaven and Earth should pass
away, than that a -ingle art or a single thought
should he lost. _ Coleridge,

DALLY AND WEEKLY.
The PublLsbers of The New-York Daily Tribune respect
fully ar.nopnre to their readers and the public that the?
have made tUTangeraent* for the opening winter a* follows
At Washington?1. A careful report of the daily pro
eeeding? of Congress will be made up expressly for Th?
Tribune, *o as tn appear ia its columns ai the earliest mo
merit. This department will be in the hands of the sara<
gentleman who so ably and satisfactorily tilled it tbroagr
the last two Sessions.
2. A ge.ulemaa well informed on all Public topics anc
of eminent standing in the Political circles of the Metropo?
lis, will act as our Confidential Correspondent, furnishing
early advices of all Political movements in contemplation
whether with reference to the Legislative action of Coa
gress, ihe corrupt vagaries of Tylerism, or to tke warning
intrigues and mnmeuvres of the partisans of the rival Loco
Foco aspirants to die Presidency.
At New-York?1. In addition to our usual departments
an experienced and iuom capable Assistant Editor W?I at
tend ail the Lectures of the Winter which shall possess i
general interest, to report them either in foil or in snbstaace
as their character and worth shall seem to require. In thii
department, The Tribune achieved an acknowledged su
premacy last winter-it is our purpose to confirm it Ui;
season.
2. Another Assistant gives undivided attention to tb?
Markets of our own and other Cities, taking accounts of Ar
rivair, and Sale- of Produce and Merchandize, with all ope
rations ia Goods, Stocks, Currency, Exchanges, i.e. ic.
which .shall be worthy oi record. In tins department wt
endeavor 10 be more precise than any other paper.
3. Our Reviews and Literary Intelligence \?e design tc
render falltr and earlier than tho se of most journals.
At Boston?We have an exeilent Correspondent, whc
will transmit us from week to week brief summaries of tin
anlest aud most striking Lectures, Discourses, i.e. i.e., witt
accounts cf wbn ii doing in every department of Mora
and Intellectual effort.
At Aleany.?We have yet to perfect arrangements foi
early and graphic advices of the manner tu which Loco
Focoism shall dispense its newly acquired '.Speils,' ant
carry out to <-omp!etion it* Stop-and-Tax policy. We sbal
take care to be ?eil represeuu-d there.
At Home and Everywhere?though we hope for a sea
son to have less occasion than hitherto for devoting oui
columns to Political controversy?The Tribune will con
imue the ardent, ucs*-^rving,,undaunted, determined advo
cate of Whig Principles and Measures, and of ihe electioi
of Henry Clay as President i.i 1814. Recent events, how?
ever discouraging in tbe view of the short-sighted, bavebu
strengthened our confidence in the speed}' triumph of thos*
Principles, and our conviction that Henry Clay and ht
only can rally around bim the now scattered hosts of tht
victors of 134^, and lead them on to a new triumph, as sig?
nal, as glorious, but more enduring anrl beneficenL
The Tribune will be published Daily on a large roya]
sheet at Fire. Dollars per annum to Mail Subscribers, in?

A PFECTIONS OF THE LIVER ?
Every invalid should read and reflect, if they desjre
a restoration to health.?1 venture to nfhrm, says an emin?
ent w riu-r. that tbe grand source of heath and disease is con?
nected with the natural or disordered function of the liver,
and thai every chronic or lingering illness nrises from some
defect there. Chronic Hepatitis the most frequent form of tbe
disee.s- in Ulis Country; is slow in its progressive stagev The
orpan Of attack will be for years suffering un-^er its under?
mining influence, and yet no real disease will indicate to ffie
patient die alarming state under which be is laboring; any
transient ic.iisposition h* imputes to a different cause, never
suspecting that the liver being affected is the latent source
of these dlstnrbed sensationsythus muL d, it is not in ids
power to take tbe necessary precautions to guard airainst
this insidious enemy.to hjs repose. The symptoms of this
disease are,often slight and tell 'or a considerable time,
such ns fulness alter meals, accompanied by oppression, a
feeling of vacuity,at itbe pit of the stomach, tbe mind be?
comes irritable,.memory defective, incapacity for mental
exertion prevails, the appetite becomes variable, tongue
furred,'month clammy Liste vitiated, slight noise causes a
start, sleep disturbed wi?i frightful dreams, occosionallj an
oh use pain in die ngbt side, extending to the top of the
Shoulder, cramp or spasms is often experienced, aud nerv
ous twitching of tbe muscles and aching pain of the limb,
nervous orsick headache is generally caused by iL Rot?
ten appears In the lorm c.f cough, ash'hrna, ic. as diseased
state of the liver, either by sympathy or pressure induces a
derangement of the functions of the lungs and occasions
these disorders. By dunging the morbid state of the liver,
the irritation of the lungs immediately gives way. The
liver Is indeed connection, primarily or secondarily, as cause
or effect with vat ious ? feas* - of the head ar. well as other
parts of the system.
From tbese views, then, th*re can bo no doubt that the
disorders of tbe liver a>e of tbe first importance, and wvery
effort used to remedy tii^m should he conducted on rational
p. incipies, and by timely and efficient attention and tbe
use of the most proper medicines, many very serious ennse
quences may be prevented, which too often are entaileti on
tbe constitution by procrastination.
As a remedy peculiarly adapted to the cure of liver affec?
tions, Dr. Starkweather's Hepatic Elixir has proved to be
the most potent and efficacious,and everyday'* experience
confirms more positively this a.*.erti?n. It is candidly be?
lieved that no preparation has ever been before the public
Chat has met with such unexampled approbation from dis?
tinguished sources, extinguished judges, and grateful pa?
tients as ?iis medicine, and a greater amount ofsuffenne
bas been mitigated and more cures permanently effected
bv it than any other medicine extanu
So confident is the proprietor of its curative properties In
every case, thai when the medicine is used according to his
directions and the patient is not satisfied orconvinced, after
using one bottle, :ha: it has produced a beneficial effect, his

WONDERFUL EFFECTS OF SANDS'S SARSAPA
RlLLA IN NORWICH
Read die following fcom Mrs. Wno. Phillips who has
long resided at the Falk The facts are well known to ?11
the old residents in that part ot'the cily.
Messrs. A. B. Sands k Ca, Sirs Most gratefully do 1
embrace this opportunity tor statine to vou the great reiiei
I ootained from me use of your Sarsaparilla. I shall also
be happy, through you, to publish to at! who are arrlicted,
as 1 lately was, the account of my uiteip?<?ed, ami even
for a long while d? spaired of < ure. Mine is a painful story
and trying and sicReaingasir tbe narrative ol iL for the
sake ol many who may be so surely rein ved, I will briedy
yet accurately state it.
Nineteen years ago last April aritot sickness left roe wish
an Erysipelas eruption. Dropsical collections tmtnetri
took, place over the entire surface of my body, causing such
an enlargement that it was necessary to ado" a half yard ti?
the size of my dresses arnunu the waist. Neat followed,
upon my Unibs, ulcers, painful beyond description. For
years, both in summer and winter^ tne only mitigation ?-i
my sunering was iou d in pouring upon Uio.v parts cold
water. From my limbs the pain extended over my whole
body, liiere was literally for me no rest, by day or by
night. Upon lying''down these pains would shoot ihrougl
my system, and compel me arise, and, tor hours together,
walk the house,so mat I was almost entirely deprived ot
sleep. During this time the Erysipelas continued active,
and the ulcers enlarged, and sodevpty have ?iuse eaten
that lor two and a half ytars they have been sulyect to
bleeding. During these almost twenty years I have con
suited many physicians Theso have called my disease?
at it was attended with an obstinate cough, and a steady
and act.ve pain in mv side?a dropsical consumption ; and
though they have been skilful practitioners, they were
only able to afford my case a partial and temporary rehet
I had Diany other difficulties uo complicated to describe.
I have also used many of the niedtcvness that have been
recommended as intallible euren tor this disease, yet ttiese
all faded,and I was most emphatically growing woise. !c
this critical condition, given up by friends, and expecting
for myself relief only In deatu, I was by the timely Inter
position ot a kind I'rovidence, turnished with your." to me,
invaluable Sariaparilla. A siugl? botile gave nie an av^ur
ance of health, which !iir twenty years I uad not once tell
Upon taking .the second, my enlargement diminished,
and in twelve d.iys from the Sib October, when I com?
menced taking ycur Sarsaparilla, I was ?ble to enjoj
sleep and rest, by night, as reirething as any I ever en?
joyed when in perfect nraith. Besi(ies, I was, in this sbon
time, relieved trom all those excrutiating and unalleviait?
pains that had afflicted my days, a, well as robb-.-d me oi
my night's repose. The ulcers upon my limbs are healed
uie Erysipelas cured, and my size reduced nenrly to m\
former measure.
Thus much do I feel it a privilege to testify to the eth
cacy of your health-restoring Sarsaparilla. A tiiousan?
thanks, sirs, from one whose comfort nad whose hope ot
future health are due, under God, to your instrumentality
And may the same Providence that directed me to youi
aid, make you the happy and honored instruments of bless?
ing others, as diseased and despairing as your muck re?
lieved and very grateful friend.

contracted while nursing one of my children, who was then
very ill.
My suffering soon became intense, everywhei? I seemed
diseased. For five months I was unable to wall;, and toi
six weeks did not lie upon a bed, but w?ts obliged to leman
In a sitting posture, that being less agoniTinc than any oth
er My whole body was co sore and racked with p:ut? that
the slightest touch caused inexpressible distress. For a pe?
riod of many mouths I did not sleep but two night-, and Ui?
only rest I ontained was during the day, when nature be?
came exhausted and 1 lell inio a slumber, from which 1 uo,
soon awakened by the beating and throbbing paiii. M>
limbs were swollen aud my shoulders drawn out of place,

iives me more pleasure than to bes-r witness to ?:t a,. ? ai
dry ;he real. and. 1 am now satisfied, the fastia* irood 1
nave received from the use of r art's Life PiLs. S.-roe ol
ujvt'riends observing the wonderful effects produced on ror
.h'roagb them, urged me strongly to make my casekuow:,
to ercnurage ethers afBtCted with coughs, Sec , to give them
ttrial; and I was gi?d to receive fro-" you the same re?
quest, as j on will be able to manage it for me. I am rathe i
at a toss lest.I should tail ;u giving full justice to the ?&?
-iency of these Pills over all the medicines 1 have tried K
my complaint, and yco know I have now bad ::t\ir!\ t I
? ears' trial of medical prescriptions for mr coa^h ai -
biltty to C3tcb colds, ?uncut beiug one whit-better,bot I
oelieve worse; and the last physician 1 consulted lau^oed
it my ignorance when I asked him if tberw wa? uotbbg lo
physic that would operate as a preventive against taking
?Id. He shook his head and said -No,; f no
<uch medicine.' Now, if be had been acqumnttM ??? itb
Parr's Li'.t Pills, he would have said. ' Tes, yr>; toere is
jOCh a itiing;' and instead ot recommencing BiaJtO res.:?. I Co
Iceland mo*s. he would have recommended tbem la -?
lectnal medicine for coagii, pluertsy and spitting of hlocd.
or that was tbr three-fold turm ot' my complaint. 'I he
rough had become <o troublesome that my sleep ?.<.>..
iroken by continue*! fits of coughing; my Ifaibil ty io coid
and iiidimmation was so great that a change ?.:> the weal be l\
lira ?alk. or any little exeition. would lay n>e cj.?. and the
usual routine of fasting, purguig aaa blisteiiug had *o b<
resorted to. This I bi? four i'me* in the cour-eof *,?>?
nontbs, and then speaking aloud or reading aioud made BM
a great deal worse, and my strength was so tar gone that
?ny liule exertion in wslkutg or working was quite suh>
dent for me. Now look at the change! Before I bad taken
two small boxes 01 the Pills, my strength was so far recov?
ered that I commenced to work ten hours a day, and
Scarcely ever telt wearied, and have done so for these five
weeks past; and then as to there being a preventive against
cold, I may just mention that the place I went to work Ut
was a sch?ol-bouse, just building; tne roof was on it, buns
yet there were none of the windows in it, and the draught
vsas very great, more especially as 1 bad never ixno.-e
wrought under such circumstances; yet 1 wrought, and airi
dill working there without having taken odd thai way.
" When I began to take Parr's rills, I gave up at the same
time the use ol tea and coffee, which 1 believe helped DM
greatly in grtting rid of my complaint. 1 am luhy -aiiifjrd
:he nse of tea, especially, ;< n very bad tatng for a cough,
is I always found my cough much worse after taking tea.
The great rood that I have derived irom Parr's Piili may
be summed up in a few words:
14 First, they increased my strength} all other medicines
had a weakening effect upon me but them. I lake three,
tour, and sometimes rive p.lls ?very twenty-four hours,ami
instead of being weakened by them, they rather in lh< lr
?ptiratinn revive the animal spirits and impart lasting
urength to the body.
" S-comfly, they go direet to the cough. I bad n*i t^ken
?iz Pills bet?re I fell the cough shaking; Its bold upon me
became looser and looser every dose 1 took, and ihe fust,
or it may he the second Sunday after 1 had begun tnkmg
them, my friends were remarking to me the gr?nt and nap.
pv change in my cough, as during the meeting 1 bad
?carcely coughed any, while previous to taking tbem 1
used to be the great disturber of the meetings by my com?
plaint.
" Thirdly, they healed the spitting of blood, and changed
completely thenatuie of the expectoration. Tbl? was pre
viously so bad that the doctors agreed from this ihm my
ungs were diseased; aad tbe last advice I got frem the
loctor was,' You must take great care of yourrelf.fur your
iungs are affected.' Now, whether my lungs are ufli pted
t< rot, I i-fo not pretend to judge, but this 1 say, that t.r t: .c
ise of Purr's Life Pills these two bad symptoms nrs r?
?novrd.
" Fourthly, they (Parr's Pills) have restored my v<?i^e to
its natural tone and strength This all my tri^nu? were re
narking who beam me speak in the meeting the otherdny,
nid who previously had noticed tbe weakness of m\ voice.
Fifthly, by the use of Parr's Pills my natural color <s re>
ftored. Before taking them my e> es were languid and duU,
iiv color was low und denthllke so much ?o that M lady
told me last week that when ste saw me about thr?r"nionib9
?go she reallv had little or no hopes of my recovery;
whereas now my color is healthy, my eye? bright, and the
.ame lady says I am now beginning to get fleib'-'ii my face,
the cheeks ol which were grea?y sunk.
"My dear Mr. Noble. 1 ion afraid von will be tired read
ng this long letter. Other particulars I might mention, but
will finish by expressing my heartfelt thanks to the I'm
