BEAUTY.
~ Oh what a pure and sacred thing
Is beauty, curtain'd from the sight
Of the gross world, illumining
One only mansion with her light!
Unseen by man's disturbing eye—
The flower that blooms beneath the sea,
Too deep for sunbeams doth not lie
Hid in more chaste obscurity.
So. llinda, have thy face and mind,
Like holy mysteries, lain enshrin'd.
And oh. what transport for a lover
To lift the veil that shades them o'er ’ —
Like those who, all at once, discover
In the lone deep some fairy shore,
Where mortal never trod before,
And sleep and wake in scented airs
No lip hud ever breath'd but theirs.
Beautiful are the maids that glide,
On summer eves, through Yemen's dales,
And bright the glancing looks they hide
Behind their litters' roseate veils —
And brides, as delicate aud fair
As the white jasmine flowers they wear,
Hath Yemen in her blissful clime.
Who, lulled in cool kiosk or bower,
Before the mirrors count the time,
And grow still lovelier every hour.
But never yet hath bride or maid
In Araby's gay Haram smiled,
Whose boasted brightness would not fade
Before Al Hassan’s blooming child.
Light as the angel shapes that bless
An infant’s dream, yet not the less
Rich in all woman’s loveliness—
With eyes so pure, that from their ray
Dark Vice would turn abashed away,
Blinded the serpents when they gaze
Upon the emerald's virgin blaze ;
Yet fill’d with all youth's sweet desires.
Mingling the meek and vestal fires
Of other worlds with all the bliss,
The fond, weak tenderness of this :
A soul, too, more than half divine,
Where, thro’ some shades of earthly feeling,
Religion's softened glories shine,
Like light thro’ summer foliage stealing,
Shedding a glow of such mild hue,
So warm, and yet so shadowy too.
As make the very darkness there
More beautiful than light elsewhere.”

MARY LAW SON.
BY M. EUGENE SUE,
Author of the “Mysteries of Paris,” “Matilda” etc.
•CHAPTER X.
I cannot say how long I continued in this
swoon, but when I began to recover myself I was
in my own bod ; I felt a rather hard hand on my
own—it was Mary’s. She was stooping over me,
and looking, I thought, very uneasy.
“ How do you feel now, my dear I” said she, in
a voice kinder than I had ever heard from human
being.
“ 1 don’t know, Mary,” said I; “ have I been
ill!”
“ Yes, you have been ill,” replied Mary, “very
ill! The doctor was here to see you just now, and
your eyes were shut all the time hewas in the room,
which was more than an hour. He is gone now,
and has sent some medicine, which he desired me
to give you the moment you recovered your
lenses.”
“ Did I lose my senses, Mary !”
“ You did. You were three hours in that state,
and Master George has been crying and roaring
ever since.”
“Indeed, Mary I I asked somewhat incredu
lously, as I had very little faith in the sympathy
of that hardened boy. “ Why, has George been
crying I”
“ It was Master George that did it.”
“ Did what, Mary ! 1 don’t know what you
mean I”
“ I mean it was he who frightened you so, dear,
bv putting that sheet on, and the mask, and all
the rest of it; but he has come off bad enough
himself. I don’t think he'll be in a hurry to try
his nasty trieks on again.”
“ Is he sorry then, for having frightened nip!”
“ Sorry for having frightened you ! God help
the little innocent, not he. If he has been crying
and roaring all this while, it is on his own ac
count, Kitty; he was bitten by the dog,and ran
down stairs so fast that the long sheet was caught
under his foot, and, as the song says,
“ The boy fell down
And broke his crown.”
I was not altogether grieved, I must confess, at
George’s disaster; he had long been my enemy,
and now he had thus inflicted a severe punish
ment upon himself, I felt that it served him
right.
Mary read my meaning in my looks; she
smiled*too, as was often the custom with her—for
Mary was a pretty, slim, well formed girl, with
a ruddy healthy face; and pretty girls I have ob
served, arc not penurious of their smiles, above
all when they have nice little teeth, in their
heads, both even and white.
“Mary,” said I looking at her as affectionate
ly as I could ; “ how pretty you look !”
* “ Hold your tongue, little flatterer,” said she,
smoothing my pillow and giving me a kiss.
That was tnc first kiss I remember to have
i received, and it made the tears come into my
eyes.
“ La, now ! what’s the matter, Kitty—are you
going to cry !”
“ I feel so happy, Mary.”
“ Happy! and you lying there on a sick bed I
You don t look happy I”
i“ I should not at all mind dying to-night, and
being carried away to heaven by the good angels,
to join my father and mother!”
“ Bless us I how you talk about dying ! You
must not die yet aw'hile ! Hero, take this sooth
ing draught—it’s very nice, and will set you to
sleep.”
I did as she bid me; the draught was as she
i said, very palatable; but "had it been the bitter
est medicine that was ever compounded, I could
have taken it —easily after Jhesc kind words and
that kiss.
When I had taken the draught, Mary settled
the bed, tucked it in carefully all round, patted
me gently on the cheek, gave mo another kiss,
and said:
“ Good night, Kitty 1”
“ Are you going, Mary ! 1 asked. “ Where is
Nero !”
“He is lying outside the door on the mat;
should you like to see him !”
“Very much indeed, Mary. What a kind
good creature you are !”
Mary opened the door leading to the stairs;
there was Nero, as she had said, guarding the
poor neglected orphan. He raised up his ncad,
and I saw his eye looking up as she held the can
dle over him.
The dog seemed to know by instinct that he
was not to come into the room.
“Thank you, Mary—l am much obliged to
you ! ’ I said; “ I will try to sleep now.’
“ Good night, and God bless you, child ! 1 see
your heart is not so vicious as they told me. I
will be your friend, as well as Nero, for the
future.”
How differently I felt already. I heard Nero
every now and then stirring on the mat, and the
sense of security thrilled delightfully through my
frame, as 1 listened to the motion; I knew also,
that one of my fellow creatures loved me. I felt
- ' no longer quite alone.
Oh ! if the world only knew the precious balm
that a few kind words infused iuto the spirit, how
much benefit might be done at little cost to the
afflicted and bereaved! Reader, whoever you bo
rich or poor, make it a duty never to let a day
pass without scattering around you a few of those
genial restoratives.
1 did not wake once that night; when I opened
my eyes it was broad day ; a gentleman in black
was standing on one side of the bed, and Mary
was on the other, with a cup in her hand.
The gentleman in black had hold of my wrist,
and was looking at his watch.
“ What s o’clock, sir !” said I, looking at him
with deference
The doctor smiled at my singular question,
suggested bv his watch, and replied:
“Nine, child. You have had a good sleep!’
“A very good sleep, sir I I did not wake at all
after Mary left me last night. ’
‘ The composing draught has done you good,
child; I thought it would. I have tried it be
fore on many, other children, and it has answered
wonderfully.”
The doctor was thinking of composing draught,
and I was only thinking of Mary 's “ God bless
you /” But of course 1 kept that to myself.
“ Now, child, here is another draught for you,
which you must take.” And he made a sign to
Mary, who gave it to mo.
I drank it off without flinching, although this
I time it was a bitter medicine. The doctor then
turned to take up his gloves, when Mary thrust a
I lump of sugar into my mouth, making signs to
me not let the doctor perceive it.
“ Good bye, child ’. ’ said the doctor ; “ I will
I see you again to-morrow morning.”
| After this little incident, things went on rather
I more smoothly for two or three years. Not that
I my adopted sister and brother softened to me in
F the least—they did no such thing. But Sarah
Burke had a lover who was courting her, and who
paid her great attention, because he understood
she would be worth five thousand pounds one day.
I And Master George, since the dog had bitten
him, had left off worrying me, and was lately
gone to a boarding-school near London, to finish
| his education. x Poor fool ! How could he finish
p what he had never begun, so to speak. .
It is a strange thing how the smallest circum
stances do change our situations in life ! The
I fact that Sarah Burke had a beau, who came to
see her punctually every two or three days at a
certain hour, did more for me than all the virtues
in the world could have done. She never thought
of giving mo her sympathy when I felt so lonely
I and unhappy; but now she wanted the same
I thing herself—she came to me for it.
I /Ind J, was not yet nine years old.
She had invited an aunt to live with her and
George, after their mother’s death—a poor, quiet,
I elderly spinster, who paid a small annual stipend
I for her board and lodging, in order to preserve
| her independence and keep up her dignity, but
p" who hated the men most furiously.
The name of this petticoat-misanthrope was
Miss Griselda Briggs. I must not attempt to
I describe her—no painter could do her justice.
She was full six feet high, large in the bone, with
I hardly any flesh about her. Her voice was strong,
but not musical. She was very deaf likewise.
She took no notice of me at first; but when she
I found that Sarah had got a sweetheart, she-want-
I cd somebody to hear her rail against the lovers,
I so she made overture to me.
I Thus 1 became a person of interest to both
I parties : the neice wanted me to hear her cry up
I her lover—to listen to certain tender passages In
I their correspondence, and to approve of the match
I she had on the tapis— the aunt, on the other
I hand, desired my company whilst she inveighed
■ against the men.
A sort of second-hand affection—a kind of in-
I ferior humanity, was now extended to me. To
I one differently situated from me, to one who had
■ never known the dismal solitude of an orphan’s
I life, this state of things would have been irksome
I and disagreeable. Not so to me. The new life
■ of sociability, inferior as it was, and only half
■ natural, was warming my heart; my mind, which
fl had become precociously thoughtful, wasexpand-
I ing under these new influences, and 1 was happily
I conscious of the change. A man who is half
fl famished, will enjoy a crust of bread given to
I him at the work-house door, with a relish far
I keener than a great lord feels over his delicate
I viands. So did 1 enjoy the pleasure of this com
fl parative kindness, which was a great novelty to
■ me.
But alas! my happiness was transitory—it did
I not J rest on a solid foundation. Sarah’s lover
I chanced to fall in with a widow lady, who had
■ eleven thousand pounds in the Bank of England.
I His attentions fell off very fast after this event,
I and at last he stopped away altogether.
I was no longer wanted. The heartless girl,
■ as if I bad been the cause of her disappointment,
■ recalled all her old enmity in a moment. She
■ treated me worse than ever. Her natural irrita-
■ bility and bad temper, being fed by this new
■ cause, was greatly increased ; and she vented on
B me not only the old spite which I had so long been
■ exposed to, but the new, and far more active vex-
B ation, which was inwardly consuming her.
I was thrown back on my two friends,
BMary the housemaid, and Nero the dog. They
B were still faithful to me, both of them; only
B Mary, for the sake of her place, was obliged to
I abuse me to her young mistress, and to bestow
B her little kindnesses by stealth.
■ Time had made progress—l was now between
■ nine and ten years old, and was almost as ignor-
B ant as King Alfred at the same age. 1 had a good
■ strong mind for a little girl, but it wanted the I
M furniture of school learning. 1 bad a heart, too,
■ which had been sorely tried, and had been chas-
■ tened by cruel sufferings. But what was that 1
1 could not spell the simplest words correctly; I
B could neither read nor write ; I had no idea of
Ono morning, when Mary came into my room, I
she often did, in her stocking feet, to prevent |
■ noise, and to have a little chat with me before I
■ she went down to her work, I called her to me, •
■ and said: z
“Mary, you are the only friend I have in the
world! 1 want to ask your advice.”
“ What is it, Kitty dear!” she replied.
“Mary, lam getting on for ten, and I have
never yet been to school. What shall Ido I I
feel that I am a dreadful dunce for my age, and
I don’t want to be so all my life. What would
; you advise me to do I”
“ I have often thought of this,” returned Mary.
“ You are naturally thoughtful and clever; u
good school training, which is lost upon so many
simpletons, or almost as bad as lost, would do
you*a world of good ; I’m sure it would.”
You arc very kind to say so, Mary. Do you
know of any plan T’g
She shook her head significantly for a few mo
ments, looked at me very gravely, as befitted the
occasion, and then added, with a bit of flourish:
“ Well, 1 think I do 1”
j “ You do, my sweet Mary, my pretty Mary 1”
cried I, throwing my arms round her neck and
kissing her.
“ Not so fast, Kitty, resumed the girl, readjust
ing her cap. “I do know of a plan, but I have
not yet told you what that plan is. Perhaps,
when I have told you, you may not like it.”
“ I shall bo sure to like it, if it takes me away
from this house, and helps to acquire an educa
tion. So be not afraid, Mary; tell me at once
what is it
“ I will, my dear. Y r ou must know, then, Kitty
that although 1 am only a poor servant myself,
that I have some relations of a better sort.”
“ Not better, Mary,” interrupted! ; “ higher,
you mean. You arc good enough for anybody,
and the better they are the more these relations
of yours must be proud of you.”
Hereupon Mary laughed a little, gave me a
kiss, and said:
“ You’re a sad coaxing little flatterer, Kitty,
and something tells me you’ll get on yet Well,
as 1 was saying, 1 have*some relations who arc
better off* than I am, and one of them is a young
aunt, named Miss Ashton, a sister of my mother’s,
but many years younger, you know, for Miss
Ashton might be my sister instead of niy aunt.
I was christened after her—she was my god
mother, you see, Kitty, and her own name is
Mary, like mine.”
“ is she as well-looking as yourself, Mary I”
“ La, there you are again ’ She is far better
looking than 1 am —a head taller at the least,
and as fine a figure as ever came out of Devon
shire or Somerset!’’
“ Well, Mary, and what were you going to say
about Miss Mary Ashton ?”
“ Ay, that’s it; when 1 begin a story I lose
my way directly, and should never get home
again without being directed. Well, then, my
aunt, Miss Ashton, is the superintendent of a
large girl’s school, near Bath, called the Kendall
Institution.”
“ Is it a charity school, Mary 3” I asked some
what disappointed.
“ No, not exactly a charity school, my dear,
since the frinds of the girls pay what they can
for their board and education; only as this is not
sufficient to cover the expenses of the institution,
the rest is made up by the voluntary gifts of
benevolent people' living in the neighbornood.”
Mary ma-de a little pause, and looked rather
intently at me.
“Well Mary!” inquired I.
“What I meant to say, then,” she continued,
“ was tlris : I am sure my aunt Ashton would use
her influence to get you admitted at once into
this school. If you would like to go I will write
to her about it.”
Mary broke off here, and we were both silent
for some time. At length I replied:
“ I should like to go, Mary; I should like it
very much ’ What would be the terms do you
think!”
“ About twelve or fifteen pounds a year.”
“ That’s very reasonable. Thank you, Mary ;
I will speak to Miss Burke at breakfast about it.
I dare say she will be glad to give fifteen pounds
a year to get rid of me.”
I was not mistaken; no sooner had I mention
ed the case to Shrah than she caught at it so
eagerly that 1 was quite struck by her ready ac
quiescence. She advised me to lose no time,
and told mo the money should be forthcoming the
moment it was required.
When 1 came to know the world better than I
did then I explained this readiness of hers to sig
nify that Miss Burke, having lately lost her ad
mirer, was glad to rid herself of a witness of her
disappointment. The truth is, if you want to
know a woman’s reason for doing a thing, you
must try the matter by her feelings, not by your
own.
It was soon settled now. Mary wrote the same
day to her aunt, and before the week was out,
Miss Ashton returned a favorable answer to the
application.
1 left Gloucester on a Monday afternoon at the
beginning of November, and reached Kendall
House the same evening about half-past eight.
It was not a long journey—not above thirty-two
or thirty-three miles I believe—yet to me, who
had never travelled at all, it seemed very long.
The country I passed through was pretty enough,
but it was not the time of year to see it to ad
vantage ; and if it had been 1 was alone—l bad
no one with mo to share the feeling. Besides 1
was uneasy to know how I should like the school
I was going to, and how they would like me;
then 1 missed Nero and Mary. As for Mary, 1
doated on her, and she returned my affection with
equal warmth. It was a sight to see us cling to
one another at the moment of parting. 1 cried
and sobbed, and the tears ran down my cheeks
and fell upon the worthy girl’s neck as I hung
upon it. Poor Nero ! how pitifully he whined
when he saw this, and when he saw my little
corded trunk carried out to the coach. 1 was
afraid we were parting for ever, and the thought
made my heart sink—for Nero had saved my life,
Nero had kept me company in the chamber of
death; the first thing that had ever learned to
love me in this world was that dog.
We got to Kendal House, then, at half-past
eight, 1 had been sitting near my trunk.on the
outside of the coach, and my legs were numb with
cold. I was quite unable to move, so the coach
man lifted me down along with the my box. The
door was open when the coach stopped; a ser
vant was standing there with a lamp.
“Are you Catherine Bell, we expects down
here to-day !” she asked me.
“ My name is Kitty Bell, if you please,” re
plied 1.
The girl returned no answer, but having
ushered me into a spacious room with a fire in
it, she left me there by myself, putting the lamp
upon the table as there was no candle.
As 1 stood on one side of the hearth warming
my numb hands and limbs, I heard the dooi open
softly, and turning round I saw a face that I never
can forget. My heart told me directly it was
Miss Ashton, as indeed it was.
Dear, noble girl! her face was rather large,
but accurately oval—just as you see them in the
fine sacred pictures of Murillo—those pictures of
grand female beauty. Everything in that face
was great, open, frank and truthlike: eyes, mouth,
cheeks, forehead were all so formed as to express
at once a superior mind. And yet there was a
grave, though not austere, melancholy over
spreading that regal countenance, which indicated
an abiding grief. It was singular to see a woman,
acting as the manager of v a benevolent institution,
and living apart from the world, who might have
shone in any court in Europe, and who, perhaps,
had no equal on any throne.
Bhe advanced towards me, stately, but kindly,
touched my cheek with her finger, and then seeing
me smile, she smiled in return ; and after scanning
my features a moment, she lifted me up and kissed
me.
“ [ love you, madam,” I said.
Then she set me down, and smiled again like a
person accustomed to be loved, and putting her
hand upon my head she asked me :
“ Your name, 1 believe, is Catharine Bell, is it
not! ’
“ Kitty Bell, if you please, madame,” I an
swered.
“ Kitty Bell at homo, my dear, but here we must
call you Catherine ; for a school, you a now, is a
place where many forms must be observed. How
old are you !”
“ 1 shall be ten next birth-day madam.”
“ And when will that be I”
“ On the 23d of April.”
“ Sha-spore’s day, 1 declare! You must be
very hungry, my dear! should you like to have
your supper 1”
All this while I had been staring at her with that
wonder which fine faces, when benevolent, never
fail to produce, even in children. To bo treated
so kindly by one so superior, was grateful to the
heart; 1 felt as if 1 had found a mother, a sister,
and a friend, all in one.
She evidently read my thoughts, and that was
natural; for she was accustomed to orphans, and
her smile had often been the first that had beam
ed upon them.
“well, Catherine Bell, will you go and have
your supper 1” she repeated.
“ 1 don t much want supper,” said I, not wish
ing to leave her.
“Are you not hungry, after your long ride in
the cold ! ’
“ I was before you came into the room, ma
dam.”
“ Then I will go out and your appetite will re
turn.”
“ Not yet madam.”
“ Why not yet!”
“ If you please, madam, if I may bo so bold
“ What !”
“ Mary told me I might kiss you ever so many
times for her.”
The lady snatched me up in her arms, and,
whilst I hung round her, and kissed on both her
cheeks again aud again, she bore me oft' to her
own room, saving:
“You shall be my guest this evening, and sup
with me !’
And sup with her I did; and though the fare
was only bread and cheese, according to the regu
lations of the school, to which she added a large
piece of cake of her own 1 had never before in my
life enjoyed such a supper. •
She had let me sec into the depth of my own
heart, and 1 found it was full of love.

A PHYSICIAN'S SKETCHES.
THE MOCK MARRIAGE.
Ifow truly pitiable it is when talent and
genius are arrayed against the simplicity of
innocence—when those rare qualities—given
to their much favored posessors for noble
purposes, are diverted from their proper
channels, and made to pander to vice and
iniquity.
I was sitting one morning in my study,
culling from my notes some of the most inter
esting records of my diary, when my servant
camo to tell mo that a young lady wished to
see me.
“She seems, sir, very ill,” he]said, “and
in great pain.”
“ Indeed,” said I; “where is she ?”
In the patient s room, sir. Slie is as pale
as death.” r
I immediately rose, and hastened to the
room where she was, and there, half lying on
a sofa, with her face hidden in her hands, I
saw a. young and apparently delicately -formed
female. She was sobbing piteously, and
scarcely heeded my entrance.
1 went up to her and said—
“My name is . You wished to see
inc ?”
“ Oh, help me—help me I” she cried, vehe
mently, falling on her knees at my feet
“ Save me, for the love of God—oh, save me
from eternal perdition. I—l have taken
poison!”
“ Poison?”
“ Yes—yes. Even now ’tis burning thro’
my veins like liquid fire. Oil! save me, doc
tor—save me ! I thought to end all my mis
eries, and to rush to the oblivion of the
grave; but now, now—oh, God! my guilty
soul shrinks in horror from death. Give me
life—life—life.”
“For Heaven’s sake,” said I, “waste no
words in. explanation now, but tell me what
you have taken ?”
“ Arsenic—arsenic,” she gasped.
I immediately rang the bell, and when my
servant appeared, I said—
immediately.”
Accustomed to obey me promptly, the man
instantly left the room, when there caihe
such a thundering knock at my street door,
that I thought it must have broken in.
“ Never mind the door,” cried I, “bi-in" me
what 1 have ordered you.”
“Yes, sir,” said iny man, and away ho
ran: at the instant that another appeal, more
loud than the former one, was made upon my
knocker.
“ Save me, save mo I” the young lady kept
crying, “I dare not die now. Oh, I cannot
die!”
“ Everything shall be done for you,” said
I, “ that the skill of man can suggest. Wait
one moment.”
In no very patient mood I ran to the street
door to open it myself, and scold the person
who knocked so furiously, and just succeeded
in opening it as another knock was about
being administered.
“How dare you?” cried I; aud then I
paused, for the deathlike paleness of the
young man who staggered into my passage
stopped mo from saying more.
“Good Good!” cried I, “what’s the mat
ter ?”
“ She—is here ?” he gasped.
“ Who?—who?”
“ A young person; I saw her go in. She
has taken poison.”
“George!” shrieked the young lady, as
she rushed from my parlor, and fell into the
arms of the young man.
“Ellen—-Ellen!” he cried, frantically, “is
it true that you still live ?”
“ I—am dying—dying!” she gasped. “Tell
—tell my father and mother--—”
She would have fallen on the floor if I had
not caught her in my arms. I carried her at
once into tlie parlor, and there was my ser
vant with the remedies I had directed him to
procure; but they were of no avail in her
present state, and with my utmost exertions
it was full ten minutes before I could restore
her to consciousness.
“ As you value your life,” said I, handing
to her the antidote I had now thoroughly pre
pared, “ take this draught —drink —drink—
drink.”
“I burn —I burn!” she cried; “oh, heav
ens, I burn ! George, forgive me ! —say you
forgive me.”
Ellen—Ellen, you will kill me,” he cried.
“ Drink—drink,” said I.
She gave a convulsive shudder, and fell
back upon the sofa. I saw that there was no
hope—she was dying. My looks, I suppose,
told the melancholy truth, for the young man
ehe called George burst into tears, crying,
“ Save her —save her, sir—oh, surely some
thing can bo done ?”
“ While poison is in the stomach we can do
much,” said I; “ but this case has gone too
far.”
With a deep groan she now drew up her
limbs as if in great agony, then a damp cold
dew came upon hci- brow; she gasped con
vulsively for breath, and then all was over.
There was an awful silence of a moment or
two. The young man seemed stupified by
the suddenness of the event. He glanced
wildly around him like a maniac; then
clutching his hands above his head, he shou
ted in a tone that made me shrink from him,
“ Vengeance! vengeance! I will have his
life!”
“My good sir,” said I, trying to stop him,
“allow me, if you please. I ”
“A thousand arms should not stay me,”
ho cried; “ I will- have his life. I will have
his life I”
“ But, sir, before you go, permit me to ask
who you are, and who this young person is?”
“ Ellen, Ellen, I will revenge you,” he
shrieked, not at all heeding my question.’' “ I
will crush him to the earth, were he ten
times what he is. Oh, Heavens! have we
thus met ? Is this the end of the bright
dream that lit my youthful fancy? Save me
from madness!”
I stood between him and the door, as I
said—
“ Compose yourself, sir, and tell me who
you are. What am I to do with the body of
this young lady? ”
He rushed to the corpse, and seizing one
of the cold lifeless hands, he called upon her
frantically to speak to him. He conjured
her by every tender epithet to say but one
word—to tell him she lived, and would live
for him. He kissed the pale lips, and then,
with a cry of despair, he rushed past me,
and was out of the house before I could in
terpose to prevent him from going.
*******
My position was anything but an agreeable
one. Here was a poisoned young lady lying
upon my sofa, and without the least means of
ascertaining who she was. I rang the bell
hastily, and when my servant came, I said,
“ Thomas, run down the street, and sec if
you can catch the young man who was here.
If you do, detain him anyhow, till I get my
hat and follow you.”
Thomas ran out, and in a few moments I
ran after him, but the young man was gone,
and we were compelled to come back as wise
as we went.
“ Upon my word,” said I, “ this is an awk
ward a predicament as any man could well
bo placed in.”
There lay the body—a hideous spectacle—
upon my sofa, and the hour was close at hand
when my usual patients would arrive.
“Thomas,” said, “ you must assist me to
carry this body somewhere else.”
“The—the body,^ir?” said Thomas. “I
—l—oh, yes.”
While Thomas said “ Oh, yes,” he backed
towards the door with an evident repugnance
to the job.
“Come, come,” said I, “ you must not have
any of these foolish scruples; 1 cannot carry
it by myself. It must be removed somewhere
till I can sec the parish authorities, and have
it taken from the house, so do you take the
feet; between us we must carry it into the
back parlor.”
“ I —l-—never took hold o’ the feet of a'
corpses in all my life,” stammered Thomas.
X.-‘ But you must now; so come, be quick.”
' Thomas with great reluctance assisted me
to lift the corpse from my sofa, and we got
comfortably enough into the passage with it,
when a knock at the street door so startled
Thomas, that he immediately dropped his end
of the burthen, exclaiming,—
“ Oh, lord, sir, what’s that ?”
“Why a knock at the door, to be sure,”
said I; “ what a foolish fellow you are.”
By dragging the body along, I now got it
myself into the back parlor, just as Thomas
opened the door. I heard a voice ask for me,
and the visitor was shown into the parlor so
recently occupied by the ghastly object I had
removed.
In a moment my servant brought me a
card, on which was written Lord Mandel
holme, and informed me that it was given him
by the gentleman in the parlor.
I went at once, expecting his lordship had
come to me for professional advice; but when
I entered the room, I was struck by the pe
culiar paleness of his face, and the agitation
that seemed to pervade every limb of him.
“ Doctor,” he said, “ although unknown to
you, I have heard your name very fre
quently.”
“ I trust I may be of service to'-your lord
ship,” said I; “let me beg of you to be
seated.”
“My visit,” he continued, speaking evi
dently with difficulty, “is not a professional
one. Do you know a family named Sars
ficld ?”
“ Sarsfield,” said I. “Yes. Some years
ago—at least seven, I should think—l knew
intimately a family of that name. They
went to settle at Boulogne permanently,
since which, m/ professional engagements
have prevented me seeing them. I know
them very well indeed.”
“At that time,” he continued, “there
were two youn£ children —the one a lit
tle over ten years of age, and the other
younger.”
. “ There were, and Ellen, the elder, was as
beautiful a child as ever —? —■”
He sank into a chair with a deep groan,
“ What is the matter, sir,” said 1; “ are
you ill ?”
He looked up at mo with an expression of
face I shall never forget, and, in a hollow
tone, he said, —
“Doctor, you have .read Shakspere, no
doubt, often attentively, and I may say in
the words of one of his bright creations,
‘Who can minister to a mind disease ?’ lam
ill, but it is a sickness of the soul. I have
come to say, that should a young lady come
here, and announce herself as Ellen Har
grave, that is Ellen Sarsfield.”
“ Indeed, sir, and under what circumstan
ces do you expect her to come here ?”
“ She recollects your address as a friend of
her father, and might come to you as a
mediator. She was seduced by—by—one
who ”
“What!” cried I, “Ellen Sarsfield, the
beautiful creature who a lew short years ago
was the darling aud the pet of a large circle
—she, torn from her fond lather’s heart by a
villain ? Why—why, sir, she must still be
quite a girl. Good Heavens! you do, in
deed, both surprise and afflict me.”
“ Let me have some water, sir,” he said,
faintly,
I rang the bell, and he was soon accom
modated with some, into which I dropped
a little ammonia, which recovered him from
the faintness which seemed to bo coming over
him.
“ Doctor,” he continued, “ if you have five
minutes’ time to spare I will tell you all; but
shoulp she come here, you shall know her- by
her long hair: it is worn low, and wound up
in it is a small thread of silver.”
I started from my seat as at once the con
viction came across me that poor Ellen Sars
field’s corpse lay even now in my back parlor.
He saw my emotion, and likewise rose with a I
face of alarm.
“Whoever tore her from her home,” cried
1, “ has a fearful account to settle.”
“’Twas I—’twas 1,” cried Mandejholme;
“ say what you will to me. Upbraid me as
you will, my spirit is now broken, and I can
bear all. 1 took her from her happy home —
I tore her from the encircling arms of those
who loved her.”
“ Good Heavens! what inducement could
you offer to her to lead so horrible a life ?”
“Marriage; I offered her marriage; but
spare me. She swore this morning she would
take poison, but that first she would come to
you to leave a message for her parents. Sipce
she left me, my heart has been wrung by
fiends. I am a man of sor row. Oh! should ■
she come here, tell her I will fulfil all promi
ses; tell her she shall be mine, and that the
mock marriage which deceived her shall be
be succeeded by a real one, and she shall
smile again.”
“Ji mock ma;riage, sir ?” said I; “so it ;
was by that most vile stratagem that poor
Ellen was undone No wonder, sir, your
heart is full of bitterness; but you do not
know the worst. Heaven extend its mercy
to you. But were I Ellen’s father I should
have to pray for patience. Ellen Sarsfield is
now ——”
A tremendous knock' at my door at this
moment startled me, and made I.ord Mandel
home fall back in his scat, looking like an
apparition. In a moment I flew to the win
dow, and saw what I did not know before,
namely, that a carriage of Lord Mendel- :
holme’s was at my door.
As I was looking from the window, Thomas
opened the door, and in an instant the young
man who had run off so suddenly, and whom ,
the dying girl had called George, came into ■
my rodm. ;
“Where is he?” he cried; “where is the ,
seducer—Suborner of justice—the foe of the i
innocent, the virtuous and the beautiful. Ha, ,
the villain!” ,
He strode towards Lord Mandelholme, who .
rose with a cry of terror, while I threw my- ■
self in between them, crying ,
. “Hold—hold, gentlemen! I cannot have
my house converted into an arena for your
quarrels. Peace, sir, peace!”
“Nay, sir,” cried the last arrival, “come
not between me and this man. You know
him not. By acts as base as villain ever im
agined, he tore from the arms of those who
loved her so fair a piece of nature’s work
manship as ever blessed the world. You
have seen her, sir—you know her. Let me
get at the villain. I will tear his black heart
from his breast!”
“Keep him. off—keep him off!” said Lord
Mandelholme: “I would not have his blood
upon my hands, but I will defend my own
life.”
“ You may well do so,” cried his opponent;
“for no man should be more afraid to die.”
“Gentlemen,” said I, “I will not have
violence here. Go both of you into the street,
if you must fight, but it is most unseemly
here.”
Lord Mandelholme drew a pistol from his
pocket, as he said, —
“I will defend my life—l will defend my
life.”
“Fiend,” cried ho, whom the unhappy girl
had called George; "fiend—monster inhu
man form! you have made many hearts deso
late, and I will not now be baulked in my re
venge. Nay, it is justice—a more sacred
name. I too am armed. Here are weapons.”
He struggled so much with me, that I saw
there was no chance of holding him much
longer-; therefore, as a last resource to stop
bloodshed, I suddenly let him go, and in a
moment throwing open the folding doors
which divided my two parlors, I cried,
“Behold! let that sight disarm you both
in this house. Profane not death by a con
test in its awful presence.”
On the table lay the corpse, as I had placed
it, and, for a moment, they both stood as if
paralyzed. Then Lord Mandelholme, with a
loud cry, strove to leave the parlor by the
door leading from the passage, but his oppo
nent darted after- him, aud, ere he could ac
complish his purpose, dragged him back
again. Before I could interfere, Mandcl
holme fired his pistol; in an instant there
was another report—a loud terrific shriek,
and the noble seducer lay weltering in his
blood.
“Good Heavens! young man,” I cried,
“ what have you done ?”
“ Taken wild justice,” he cried—“revenge!
The betrayer of gentle innocence and virtue
will betray no more; let him die. Touch
him not—l am the avenger; let him die—let
him die!”
I hurried to the side of the wounded man,
and, raising his head, I saw that the shot had
entered somewhere near- his ear, and most
probably lodged about the back of the neck.
His eye, though, told me he was dying; there
was no hope.
“ Is he dead ?” asked the other.
“ No,” said I; “ but he soon will be : he is
dying.”
The young man then dropped the pistol
which he held in his hand, and walking into
the next room, he, with a deep sob, approach
ed the corpse of the unhappy girl. He kissed
convulsively the pale face.
“Helen, Helen,” he said, “you are aven
ged! Rest, rest, pure spirit. He who turned
your gaze from the light of Heaven is no
more.”
I was so bewildered that I could take no
steps to prevent him from leaving the house,
although, as I was told afterwards, it was un
questionably my duty to detain him. He,
however, made good his escape, my servants,
who had been startled at the shots, and were
collected round the parlor door, fancying that
he had gone for assistance. When 1 heard
the street door shut, I somewhat recovered
from my mental stupor.
“Call the police,” 1 cried; “stop that
young man.”
Before any one could stir, Mandelholme
uttered a faint groan, and then, in weak,
painful accents, said,
“No, no, let him go; lam dying.”
“Tell me, sir, for God’s sake, where your
friends may be communicated with,” said I.
He shook his head, and then, after a pause,
said,
“Listen. I think Heaven will give me
strength for one purpose, if for no other—to
confess my wickedness, and pray even now
for pardon—for mercy.”
He paused, and a quantity of blood in his
mouth evidently stopped his utterance. I
beckoned to the servants to assist me, and we
raised his head, placing under it a sofa cush
ion, when, after a few moments, he again
spoke,
“That still form, which even in death
is so very beautiful, was my victim.—
Look on her now that she is robbed of the
intelligence of vitality, and you may guess
what she was by what she now is. When I
first saw her, she was young, virtuous, love
ly, and I coveted to make her miserable. 1
sought her destruction, but her virtues rose
ever before me like a battlement, which there
was no surmounting, and—and—as I could
not woo her to sin, 1 turned her best feelings
into weapons against her, and told her I
would marry her secretly, and then, as her
father's circumstances were indifferent, that
she should have the pleasure of relieving
him, by the agreeable surprise of tolling him
she was the wife of a nobleman, and possess
ed of unbounded means. She refused for a
long time, but 1 had won enough of her af
fections to blind her judgment, and she at
' length consented.”
He paused now again, and was evidently
suffering the most acute pain. It was seve
ral minutes before he proceeded, and then
his voice was much weaker, as he said, -
“ She consented. A note was left with her
father, and she eloped with me. We were
married in London ”
“ Married!” said 1.
“ Yes, yes, a mock marriage. My valet
was the mock priests she believed herself my
wife, and then she claimed my promise of re
turning the following day to her parents.
By one excuse and another I put her off, and
then I wrote a note to her parents as if from
her, bidding them adieu forever. The reply
came. It did not suit me, for it was full of
love and expostulations. I wrote an answer
myself, imitating the handwriting as well as
I could, and that plunged her in despair, for
it harshly discarded forever. Well, she in
sisted upon going to throw herself at her
father’s feet. 1 entreated, I commanded, and
finally I told her all. She rushed from my
house, and—and there—she is, dead—dead!
Oh, Heavens, have mercy upon me !”
He tossed his arms wildly in the air for
some moments, and then lay perfectly still,
the only indication of life being an occasional
low moan.
Go to the next street,” whispered I to my
man, “ and call M. , the surgeon.
Thomas ran off, and in less than ten min
utes came back with the eminent practitioner
I had named to him.
“ A bad accident have you hero, doctor ?”
he .said.
“ Yes; look at him, I fear *
Mr. shook his head, after carefully
examinining the eyes of the dying man.
“ No hope ?” said 1.
“ None!” was the reply.
Suddenly Mandelhonie sat upright, and,
stretching his arms up towards the ceiling,
he cried—
“ Help, help! Helen, save me—save me!”
He gasped for utterance; a dull, rattling
sound in his throat succeeded, and the sedu
cer lay a corpse!
*******
Lord Mandclholme’s friends took away his
body, and Helen was interred in the nearest
churchyard. The young avenger was never,
to my knowledge, heard of again.
Iron Rings and Golden Hair.—Dur
ing the years 1813, 1814, and 1815, when
Prussia had collected all her resources in the
hope of freeing herself from the heavy yoke
France had laid upon her, as well as other
countries, the most extraordinary feelings of
patriotism burst forth. Every thought was
centered in the struggle for liberty; every
coffer was drained; all gave willingly, both
rich and poor; indeed, such was the glorious
unanimity with which the whole nation acted,
that even the Emperor Napoleon’s attention
was excited, and ho keenly criticised such
generous patriotism. In every town altars’
were erected, on which all ornaments of gold,
silver and precious stones, were offered up for
the good of the country. Massive plate was
replaced in the richest palaces by dishes,
plates, and spoons of wood. Ladies wore no
other ornaments than those made of iron, on
which was engraved—“ We gave gold to the
freedom of our country, and like Gier, wear
an iron yoke.” One evening a party of
friends had assembled in the house of one of
the wealthiest inhabitants of Breslaw.—
Among the young girls was one, beautiful
but very poor; and when her companions
were boasting what each had contributed to
wards the freedom of their country, alas!
she had no offering to proclaim, for she alone
had none to give. With a heavy heart she
took her leave, and returned sorrowing to her
own home lamenting her inability to contri
bute to the glorious cause. As unrobing
herself for the night, the thought suddenly
flashed upon her mind that she could dispose
of her beautiful hair, and add to the public
fund. With the earliest dawn, she flew to a
hair-dresser, related her simple talc, and
parted with her luxuriant tresses for a tri
fling sum, which she instantly deposited on
the national altar, and re-entered her quiet
home, her eyes sparkling with delight at thus
having contributed her mite towards the
emancipation of her country. Her patriot
ism soon reached the ears of the officer ap
pointed each day to collect the various offer
ings; he related the circumstance to the
president, who received a confirmation of the
fact from the hair-dresser himself, and whose
own patriotism kindling in the recital, he
voluntarily proposed resigning the fair hair
then in his possession, provided it was resold
for the benefit of their “father land.” The
offer was gratefully accepted; iron rings
were made, each containing a portion of the
treasure, and these rings produced far more
than their weight in gold; all were wild to
possess a lock of this noblest of Prussia’s
daughters; and hundreds and thousands of
pounds were given for a single ring, and
thousands flowed in to fill the coffers in so
holy a cause.
Quite a Sensible Darkey.—At a meet
ing of the negroes in Boston, in relation to
the Fugitive Slave Law, when the excitement
had got to its highest pitch, and threatning
remarks were made intimating that it would
be best to cut the throats of the whites, an
agad negro rose and addressed the assemblage
as follows:
“My friends, I think we are gwinc a little
too fast in dis matter. We talk about arming
ourselves and resisting the laws : but it ap
pears to me, my bredcrin.dat de Ijost ting wo
can do would be to raise a fund to help de fu
gitive to get out ob de way ob dem slave
catchers. For, now suppose, my brederin,
dat wo hab a first rate fight, and get one ob
dese fugitives clear, and five out ob six ob us
get killed in de muss, now in my opinion dat
would be a loosin game. It ’pear to me dat
nint zactly do way to save niggars any how.”

which adds greatly to the strength and durability uf the <

well known to require more than an allusion to them as
an evidence of their value. It may only be necessary to '
refer to the fact that at the great Fair of the American j
Institute, they awarded to him the first premium gold
medal for the best Piano Fortes, and to the many other
testimonials from some of the first professors and ama

Dear Sir—Until I had the pleasure of inspecting your

Messrs. Greatorex and Ensign, awarding you the first pre

commend your pianos, as equal to any manufactured in

A 1 ORK SHILLING, (12 cents,) is all you have to risk
to try it; and as that sum can be no object to the proprie
tor. it is hoped that such a price can be no obstacle to any
family, and will never prevent its trial.
THE PRICE, from twelve to fifty cents per bottle, ac
cording to the size, will enable all to use it. If you
doubt, begin with a 12 cent bottle, and that will remove
your donbts, and make you buy, and use and recommend
it to your friends more than a hundred certificates would.
Wh<» will fail to try it then, and save life aud suffering fur
a YORK SHILLING ?
This “PAIN-KILLER" may be used with a success
that will astonish the beholder, in such cases as the fvl

Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint cured, and all
Western and Southern Fevers prevented, in every case,
by the use of Longley’s Great Western Indian Panacea,
warranted to cure the most severe cases of the above com
plaints. Loss of Appetite, Bilious Affections and Indi
gestion, are permanently cured by its use. The great
points are, it is not bad to take; it does not leave the
bowels cdktive, and gives no pain in its operations. This
Panacea will remove all the bad bile from the stomach,
and give tone to the system, and keeps off all attacks of
malignant fevers. If the stomach is in a healthy state,
and the pores of the skin arc open, so as to admit of free
exhalation from the body, there can be no attack of fever.
This office the Panacea will positively perform, and we
recommend all to try this article if they wish to ensure
health during the year. As a family medicine, it is un

TEN THOUSAND
CURES, AND NOT A SINGLE FAILURE !
DR. HASTINGS' COMPOUND SYRUP OF NAP
TIIA, celebrated throughout both continents for its won
derful cures of Consumption, Asthma, Decline, Spitting
of Blood, Night Sweats, Difficult Breathing, Coughs,
Colds, and all Diseases of the Chest and Lungs.
Its effect upon the system is mild and soothing, at the
same time certain and efficacious; rarely failing to give
relief upon the first application, and by repeating it a few
times, a permanent cure is effected.
The proprietor, therefore, not only recommends his
Naptha Syrup, but warrants it to cure. He warrants
it to act upon the chyle, and purify it; he warrants it to
remove all impediments which retard the free circulation
of the blood ; he warrants it to open the internal and ex
ternal pores of the body, and eject all the obnoxious par
ticles which have accumulated in the system; he war
rants it as a never-failing remedy in
CURING DISEASED LUNGS,
Hectic Fever,Night Sweats, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints,
Pain in the Chest, and Asthma; and he warrants it to
arrest the formation of Tubercles on the Lungs, and to
heal those already formed, so that persons in consumption
may take it with the most positive confidence of a cure,
for its great seat of action is the Lungs, which it pene
trates in all directions, purifying them of everything
obnoxious in its progress, and which, if applied according
to directions, cannot fail to leave in a perfect healthy
condition.
Dr. Hastings’ Compound Syrup of Naptha is highly re
commended by the medical profession. That eminent
physician, Dr. Mott, of New York, says “ that rs a pul
monic remedy it cannot be too highly praised.” Dr.
Arnold, of the Marine Hospital, Savannah; Dr. Ware, of
Liverpool, England; Dr. Boyd, of Lancaster; Dr. Hamil
ton, of Bath; and those eminent English publications,
the London Lancet, the Medical Journal, and IjraithwaHe’i
Retrosj>ect, all accord to it the most convincing certifi
cates of its virtues. Tn this country it has been used
with distinguished success.

DR. LAFONT’S FEMALE PILLsY
Having used these pills in his
private practice lor the last thirty-five years, and
nn the French Female Infirmary under his care, tor the
last twenty, with such unparalled success, that he feels
in duty bound to let the world, and especially the female
part of it, liave the benefit of hisresearch and experience.
The number of females admitted annually from different
parts of the kingdom into the Infirmary, are about three
thousand, all laboring under obstruction, suppression,
green sickness, or some irregularity, us maybe seen by the
annual reports of the Institution. In every instance
have the Pills proved successful. The Pills invariably
open those obstructions to which females are liabbx
bring nature into its proper channel, whereby health is
restored, and the pale and deathly countenance changed
to a healthy one. No female can enjoy good health unless
she is regular; and when ever an obstruction takes place,
whether from exposure, cold, or any other cause, the gen
eral health begins immediately to decline, and the want
of such a remedy has been the cause of so many Consump
tions among young females. Headache, pain in the side,
palpitation of the he heart, loathing of food and disturb
ed sleep, do most always arise from tho interruption of
nature; and whenever that is the case, the Pills will in

As day by day it unobtrusively extends its sphere of
action along the borders of our vast country, and is circu
lated throughout its extent, new evidences' of its power
and new proofs of its efficacy arc continually developed.
Three millions of boxes, applied to disease within the last
four years, has established the astounding fact beyond
the power of cavil or contradiction, that it is INFALLI

their putrid matter, and then heal them. We are not*

THE EXPLOSION IN HAGUE STREET, NEW
lORK. Interesting
Case.—This is to certify
that my son, Francis
Edward Hyde, 65 Pear! ■
street, Brooklyn, was x,.nr-.
employed by St. John,
Burr & Co., hat
manufacturers, Hague st
and at work on the floor MfiYr
immediately above and
over the boiler when the explosion took place on Februa
ry last, by which dreadful catastrophe so many persons
lost their lives. The explosion carrried the boiler through
the room where he was employed, and himself with it to
the second story, when all was precipitated down, and he
was buried in the ruins amid a mass of fire, straw, hot
bricks and burning coals. In this dreadful situation, he
lay insensible for (as he thinks) near 20 minutes. When
consciousness returned, he discovered light over his head,
and by strenuous efforts to free his arms, he dreadfully,
lascerated them. From this perilous situation he was
extricated about 1% o’clock, having been under the ruins
two hours. He was carried to the Hospital, and thence
removed to his home in Brooklyn at 12 M. of that day.
The application of Lime Water and Linseed Oil having
been made at the Hospital, was continued for the space of
two days, but without affording any relief. His case was
considered hopeless, for he was one of the most severely
injured, and so reported by the Relief Committee. He
suffered much pain ; his face, head, neck, both arms, and
entire back being dreadfully burned. The flesh was burned
off both' arms from the elbow down to the fingers—the
right arm near the elbow being burnt to the bone. The
back, from the hip to the shoulders, was covered with
sores, having laid in burning coals when amid the ruins ;
and the cars burned to a crisp, and fears entertained of
their dropping off.
Rev. James L. Hodge, Pastor Ist Baptist Church,
Brooklyn, called to see him, and stated that he would
get something to cure him. In the evening he returned
wi;b some of DALLEY’S PAIN EXTRACTOR, which he
obfained of the Proprietor himself and applied it. He
(Mr. H.) being familiar with its properties, having seen
it successfully used when the steamer Swiftsurc was
blown up on the North River, and upon which occasion,
it saved the lives of four persons, who had been dreadful
ly scalded. The application of the Extractor produced
. ease in from fifteen to twenty minutes, and he was free
from pain aftei* that, excepting at the dressings, and at
times when the plasters were accidentally removed or dis
turbed. The use of the ointment was faithfully adhered
to by direction of the attendant physician, and fresh sup
plies were constantly obtained from the prnprieter. It
has completely and fully restored him, and cured his
wounds without leaving a scar or mark of any kind. He
is now perfectly well and engaged iff his business occupa
tions.
To the foregoing facts I am happy to testify with sin
cere thanks to Mr. Dailey and Rev. Mr. Hodge, as I do
conscientiously believe that, under Divine Providence.
DALLEY’S FAIN EXTRACTOR has saved his life.

Stoves i stoves !—it is now admit
ted by all who have used this »
celebrated Stove, that it far ex- w X
ceeds any now in use for heating K 1
parlors, stores, offices, halls, &c.
The subscriber has also con
strncteil a Cook Stove, on the
same principle, both of which
cannot be surpassed for economy
of fuel, cleanliness, and durabil
ity. So confident is the under
signed of their superiority, that
he offers t<> refund the purchase
money, if after a trial of two
weeks the Stove should not prove
satisfactory. A Silver Medal was awarded for this Stove,
at the last Fair of the American Institute.
The public are invited to examine the principle on
which the fuel is burnt in this stove, being entirely new.
and pronounced by some of the best judges the best for
giving heat, and at the same time the most economical in
fuel of any stove now in use. A few of the many improve
ments are here set forth :
Ist. They have no grate in the bottom, the coal resting
upon a strtid surface. No cold air is admitted to deaden
the lire.
2d. The air is heated before it reaches the fire, by pass
ing through a hot air chamber—consequently the coal is
all consumed.
3d. It is air-tight, and so constructed that it needs no
raking; is free from dust, and none can escape into tlie
room.
4th. It is economical: the application of the heated air.
in connection with the fact that it cannot be disturbed by
raking, causes a complete combustion of the coal—a prin
ciple never before obtained in stoves.
RECOMM F. N D ATI ONS.
St. Thomas Hall. Flushing, March. 1849.—T0 L. Wood.—
The stove is an excellent one, and gives me great satisfac
tion. The tire does not go out for six or eight weeks to
gether, and with a very little care need not go ont during
the season. w. 11. GILDER.
Extract ot a letter from Mr. Robert Coffin, of Hudson,
N. A.— Ihe principle of the stove 1 certainly approve, as
experience has shown me that heating the air before it
passes into the fire chamber is correct, as it insures a uni
form fire, and completely consumes the fuel.
Respectfully, ROBERT COFFIN.
I have used during the last three winter*, one of L.
M ood’s Air-Tight Cylinder Stoves, which has a tight bot
tom upon which the coal rests, instead of a grate. 1 con
sider it "He of the best ever used, for economy of fuel,
cleanliness and ci.mfort, and appear to fulfil all that could
be expected for the purpose designed.
