CANcER.-The following article is copied
from an Edinbu'g paper:


&c While was n, Smyrna, there was girl
afflicted with the Cancer i'll her lip, and the
gum was affected. The European physicians
consulted on the measures to he taken, and
agreed that they no other method than 10
cut it out aud the girl had already Submitted
herself TO that decision. BY an accident Of
that nature which men caunot account for,
an old Armenian came To- them just in time
to preven. the application Of the knise.


DO no,hiug, said the Armenian. 81
will cure her, aud when he had pledged him
self strongly, the physicians consented.


{" He procured copper vessel, newly tin
ned nn the inside (an essential coucurrence)
and having poured IA certain quantity OF olive
oil into it, he made i, boil over a soali fite,
sufficiently to keep it gently asiia,ed, and 5"
for three times in 24 hours. With this, the
oil resolved itself to the c"n~i>,ency of an
oinment, aud By CONSTANTLY rubbing the pa'i
affected, he cured her in ii days. Nothing
else was done.


"The physicians supposed that the oil re-
ceived its virtue from the tin, aud that it was
communicated BY its long boiling ever the
