into n dram-slOp, and tried every meaus te induce him to drink but without success.

 A man who had been incorporate from the age of g to 50, at an expense of $50 a year for liquor, took the medicine about weeks since, and he is now completely temperate. He says he has no desire tor ardent spirits. He is strong Gnd vigorous as in his youth. His nerves, winch before could not be quietcd by two or three glass es. are now tranquil without any stimulus. To a question on this point, he replied. stretching out his hand and arm with per- feet steadiness, "see that ,"

 But the most extraordinary cure which we met with, was that of Journeyma n printer. He had beon educated drunk ard. In his boyhood, his father, now in the grave by intemperance, used to lead him a. bout to taverns and "porter-houses," and after drinking himself, 10 give of the same poison to his little son. Under these cir- cumstances it is not s1range,if at the age ot IT he was confirmed drunkard. He is now 30. In the course of these l3 years of de- baucherv, he has been twice lunatic--has been once carried to the hospital-has had two fits, and one convulsion-has been oft- en found dead drunk in the sreets,and car- ried home or to the watch-house,- ,-has l freouently lost his hat and shoes--has abus- l ed his mother-in short, has been drunk ard of the very worst character. A quart of spirits day, was for him moderate portion. Hewould often get up nights, to slake his unsuitable appetite for rum. This man resorted to Dr. C. about weekssago took his medicine seven times-and has drank no ardent spirits since, nor had any desire for it. Peace is now restored to this disorganized family :>s and his widowed mother is rejoicing and blessing God for this. unexpected deliverancc.--We ought however, to add, that having taken the medicine in spirits, he is still fond of strong beer he is fully satisfied that by treating l this appetite in the same manner as the other, the result will be the same. He is

 determined to try the experiment.

 In making most of these inquiries, we

 were accompanied by the Rev. l.. Dwight

 of Boston. and are authorised to say that he concurs in the above statement. As to the efficacy of the remedy for q time, there can subject, but one opinion. Whether the dis relish for ardent spirits will be permdncnt, can be better determined a year or two hence But evenif it should continue only tDo months, (and several of the above cases are ofso long standing,) would it not be we'll worth while, for drunkard, the dis- grace and ruin off his family and the destroy CT of his own soul, to take this medicine thus often, for the sake of being healthy, vigor- ous, rational and temperate? Is it not as wise to spend S2O year, and be man, as l $50 and be a beast
