Sydney Smith. Sydney Smith's conversation was the conversation of a man mad with spirits ; of a man, to uso his owu expressions, w^tjffmUst either talk, laugh or hurst; brVdanalogicsand picturosquo imagery ..as the sun breeds clouds. Take him wnen or whoro you might, you nevor ?.*tool^b1m by surprise; aud most of the brightest illustrations of his wit, like Douglass Jerold's were those that struck out off the spur of the mome ut, His re ^the Archbishop of York?"1 hear tilth, you do not approve of much for th? clergy." ''Why, my lord laps there is not much objection, .they* do not ride too well, aud stick out tnetr toes professionally"?was very keen ; for Sydney Smith could never sit a horse, and his diocesan was one of ttMraorftemcn iu a province where every Ifcoy wasborn in a saddlo, and rides by instinct.' There vas a touch of the tier as well as the wit in his reply ??Saofy who, arguing in a large par ty that it was always high tide at Lon don Bridge at twelve o'olock, appealed to him with, "Now Mr. Smith it is not so ^Tt is used not to be so, I believe "formerly,'but p ,vhaps the Lord Mayor and Aldermen have altered it lately." iced out the nualogics of thin;s marvelous quickness. A man at fal'TCckonsthe amountof his ground j^imt :v.t .?5 a foot. "Ah, the prioo of a London footman six foot high, thirty guineas a year.'* I'pou a couple of talkers, "there is the same d ifferencc be tween their tongues as between the hour and the minute hand : one goes ten times as fast, and the othor signifies ten times as much." If you masthead a sailor lot not doiDg his duty, why should you not weathercock a parishooer for tot using to r pay tithes j" Of a New Zealand attoruoy ?"There is a New Zealand attorney* " just arrived in London, with 0? Set tattooed all over his face; aud of illusions ] ?"We naturally lose illusions as wc get older,Itkc tteth, but th.^rc is no (.'art wright to fix a uew set into our under standings. I have, alas, only one illu sions left, and that is the Archbishop of Cnntcbury." Combiuinga vivid imagiia tion with this brillautgift of hitting up ou analogies, with these high spirits, and thifl*Tcmttvkablc iTueucy of expression, Sydney Smith was, as a talker, irrcsti flKMMpMld except Macaulay, he general y talkcd every guest at a table into silence His habit was, as ho said, to fire rigln across the table, aud to talk upon any subject that happened to be starred, rarely stalling anything of his own. Hyvon calls him, iu Dun Juan, '?Tha loudest wit I e'er was deafened with.' nua that is the general testimony.* * * His intellect wes like an electric coil you touched it, aud it flashed out in jarklin? corruscatious at the touch. ie cohversttion atone of Rogers, br. ak facts turns upon American bir ls! ' My lcar Rogers," srys Smith, "if wc were )bth in An.erica wc should !??? ta r d , ,,/^nd. feathered and lovely as we arc by nature, 1 should be an ostrich and you a*n emu; Sir Charles Lycll's book is . brought on the carpet, and people won der what sort ofa spectacle our era will present to the Sir Charles Lyell of the next geological epoch. "Yes, imagine an excavntjon on the site of St Raul's fancy a lecture by the Owen of :-omc future age, on the thigh bone of a M inor Canon, oc the tooth of a Dean?the term, qualities, knowledge, taste, pro pehsitCA, ho would discover from r'rram." - Of art nnd polish, as ara anil polish were understood by Macaulay, you find no L6accstin> Sydney Smith. His daugh ter calls him a sort of rough rider of subject:*; aud the phrase is au apt one. He never troubled himself with the roetapnystcs or a question-: nc ucver troubled himself with its trivialities. Taking up only those topics of talk that s of the direction personally interest those topics that were under discassious in the House of Commons, in Cathc flrni chapters and ai every dinner table, Sydney Smith selected the most toil ing points aud then sut down to work se up with his own vigorous under standing, from what I may e ll the com mon sense point of view. Aud his styh id in its way, perfect. It is the exact, ?mirror of his thought. lie wrote as he talked; wnotc, that is, with the dash of a man nl keen wit; and' of high iutelli genca,.rarely, revised his manuscript, nnd left most of his contributions to the Edinburgh Review, to chance and Jeff reys?Gdbtlciiuih's Magazine. isr-liow a oditor lost his credit by in^tDess in paying back borrowed >cy; tt*a?1b0oloucl, will you lend me a hundred lawJNil't possibly doit, sir.

Probably never before in the whole history of medicine, has any thing won ao widely and so deeply upon the conlldence of mankind, as tbla excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through a long series of years, and among most of tho races of men it has risen higher and higher in their estimation, as it has become better known. Its imiionn character and power to cure the va rious affoctions of tho luugs and throat, have ntado it known as n reliablo protector agnlust them. While adapted to milder forms of disease and to voting children, it I* at the same time tho most effectual remedy that can be given for incip ient oonsumptlon, and the dangerous affections of tho throat and lungs. As a provision against sudden attacks of Croup, it should be kept on hand in every family, and Indeed as all are some times subject to colds and coughs, all should be provided with this antidote for them. Although settled Consumption is thought in curable, still great numbers of cases whuro tho disease seemed settled, bare been completely cored, and tho patient restored to sonnd health by the Cherry Pectoral. So complete is its mastery over the disorders of the Langs and Throat, that the most obstinate of them yield to it. Whan nothing else could reach them, muter the Chesry Pectoral they subside and disappear, Sinaers and Public Bptakert find great protection from it. Asthma is always relieved and often wholly cored by it. Pronehiits is generally cured by taking tho Cherry Pectoral in small and frequent doses. 80 gunerally arc its virtues known, Uiat we need not publish the certificates of them here, or do more than asstiro tho public that Its qualities are fully maintained. Ayer's Ague Cure, For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever, Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Arup, Periodical or Bilioua Fever, &o., and indeed all the utToctions which arise from malarious, marsh, or miasmnUo poisons. Aa Its namo implies, it docs Cure, and does not fall. Containing neither Arsenic, Quinine, Bis muth, Zinc, nor any oUier mineral or poisonous substance whatever, it in nowiso Injures any pa tient. The number aud importance of its cures in the ague districts, are literally buyond account, and we bclicvo wiUiotit a parallel In the history of Ague nicdlcino. Our pride is gratified by Uto acknowledgments we receive of the radical cures effected in obstinate cases, snd whore other rem edies had wholly failed. Unacclimatod persons, either resident in. or travelling through miasmatic localities, will be protected by taking tho AGVK CVItIC daily. For Liver Complaints, arising from torpid ity of tho Liver, it Is an oxccllcnt remedy, stimu lating the Liver Into healthy activity. For lllUmiM Disorder* and Liver Complaints, it Is an excellent remedy, producing many truly remarkable cures, where other medicines had failed. 1'rcparod by pn. J. C.

A dressing which is at onoo agreeable, healthy, and effectual for preserving the bair. Faded or gray hair is toon restored to its original color, icitli the gloss and frcsliness of youth Thin hair is thick ened, falling hair checked, and bald ness often, though: not always, ctrrecl by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where tho follicles are destroyed, or tho glands atrophied and decayed. But such as remain can be saved for usefulness by this application. Instead of fouling the harr with a pasty sedi ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent tho hair from turning gray or falling off, and consequently prevent baldness. Free from thoso deleterious Substances which make some preparation* dangerous, and injurious to tho hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not harm it. If wasted merely for u HAIR DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it docs not soil white cambric, and yet lasts long on the hair, giving it a rich, glo?sy lustre aud a grateful perfume. Prepared by Dr. J. C. Ayer &.
