AGATE LETTER SEAIA a handsome asaortmenu just received anu ior aate oy WM. II. HORTSMAN SON, ir7 51 North THIRD Street. A LL WHO DOUBT THAT CONSUMPTION il CAN HK CURED, read the following: MR. SCII ENCK Dear sir: It affords me heart fell satisfaction lo lav before the public Ihe success ot your fULAlUiMlc BVKtf in curing me of aim senna alto armir seaiea i.iAmit.nriion.

snn 1 firmly believe that no other medicine but your would nave succeeded in curing me. aooui tour year aro 1 was aiiacxeo wiin a pain in my breast, and a troublesome eotirh. and a very sore throat, which my physician called Bronchitis. At time 1 would get better, burwhenerer I took the least cold I would get worse aaein. and for several successive weeks would be very miserable.

About three year ago my husband died with consumption. and after hi decease I was taken with the same symptoms he had before he died, namely, violent and distressing cough, severe pain in my aide and al the pit of mv atunach: mv throat was in a dreadful con dition, being so very ore, that at time it was Willi great difficulty 1 could speak. 1 hast every day a aign lever, violent aeanacii, creeping chills ana pro fuse sweat al night. My bowel were costive, an petile nearly gone, and my Momach was so very weak thai my physician was al a haw to know what to do for me, as every thing I would take in the shape of foid or medicine was immediately rejected. I remained for some time in thi wretched condition, and despaired of ever getting belter.

A gentleman who resided iu the house with me had a violent attack of Influenza, and was recommended to try SUIENCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP; he did so, and 11 seam oroxe ni eouga ana mane nun perfectly well. This gave me some confidence In your syrup, and I reluctantly determined lo try il. The first bottle ap peered to take hold of my disease and relieve me; it was the first thing I found that would remniu on my stomach, and il soon began to strengthen me, which continued until I was perfectly restored. My cough, which bad all akaig been light and dry, now became very louse, and the expectoration eopiousj and in a short time it ceased entirely. Your Syrup appeared to pervade my whole system, my limbs which had previously been cokl, soon became warm and natural, my blissl was purified, and my bowel liecaine perfectly regular without the aid of purgative medicine.

But what created most was, that after using several bottle id Ihe Syrup, the affected aide and breast broke out in about twenty large bile, wnirn were very paiiitui ana aiscnargea way matter. I felt satisfied thai this war the effect ot your truly valuable medicine, pnfllying my system, and uWneipettiag the diseased matter in this form. I have forth last eighteen months enjoyed uninter. ranted health, and hava refrained from making my ease known for fear of a rilapsa occurring, a I could scarcely believe I was cared permanently, as I always supposed oaisumpttoH an ineuratile disease, and mine was the first case of real consumption thai I ever knew to be permanently cured. I tell it inv duty to make knomn the great and healing virtue of your yrop whenever 1 went, ana muiy or my friends 'have used it wilh as gond success aa myself.

and 1 know of many really astonishing Cures il has made, one of which I will relate, went to see little child. Who lav. as us parents supposed, on a death bed. The phyaician had given it up, and it was reduced In a mere skeleton, and every one who was there thought it would not survive many hour. I suggested ihe use of your Pulmonic Syrup, which they consented to try, and in a short time the child was better, and by continuing it use Ihe child was eventually restored lo health.

It is now a healthy child, and but for your Syrup I believe it would have been in its crave. I with thai the vir tue of your Syrup were known far and wide, and in order that all wha Mwd this may rely upon the truth of every word that is herewith Mated, I would rc specuuilr invite an amicteo person 10 can ana see me, at my residrnce, No. 333 RACE Sireei, between Ninth and Tenth, lower aide, and I will inform them more particularly of my own case and other that nave come under my onservatioii. daiah uxxia.

"Give," Ana creon is reputed to have said in answer to some brilliant prophecies of hia future fame, "the laurel which you intend for my bust to decorate' my living brow and we are told that seven cities contended for "Homer dead, through which tlie living Homer begged his bread." In view of these and similar cases of practical injustice) and inconsistency, of which the history of loiters in very age is full, Dr. Johnson exclaimed See nations, slowly wise and meanly just, To buried merit raise the tardy butt Sam tMick, in his own way, aims some hard blows at this cheap specie of admiration for buried mei it," the occasion being tho recent pompous funeral of poor old Tom Hear him FUNERAL OF CAMTBELL THE POET.

They are a curious people, the English; they are like Deacon Flint he could never sett the pint of a good thuig till it was too late. Well, the English are like Ihe old deacon; ihey don't see a man's merit tilt he's dead, than they 1 wake up all ot' a sudden and say, Oh we must I honor this feller's 'skeleton and Peel, aud ltrotigbam, and all tlie dons, go and play pail bearers to it, stand over ma grave, look sentimental, and attitudinise a tew. Just as if it warn't a muat beautiful joke to see these men, who could have done ever so much fur the poet in lifetime, when it could have done him good but who never even so muvhas held out a linger to him, except in a little matter not worth havin' now he is dead, start up all at once and puuxK nixe his body and bones, when i'. can't do him one mossel of good.

He boned as he had charmed' the nuiiun, and given 'em another name to add to llieir list ol poets, to crack the brag of he a nan recompense at least in some government appointment, that would have cheered and soothed bis old age, and be was disappointed, that's all nu mat tne pleasures ot nope, squire, en 7 tie loped that tame, which he had in his life, would have done htm some good in his life didn't he? ell, he lived 011 tliat hope till he died, and that mil 1 disappoint bint lor bow can a teller sar he is disappointed by a thing be has lived 0D fill Bis days aud thai the pleasures of hop. He boned, in course. Peel would be a natron of poets; and so he is: be acts as a pall bearer, 'cause as soon as the pall is over him, he'd never bother him nor any other minister no more.

Oh' Hope told a Batter in' but all flatterer ara liars. Peel has a princely fortune, and is a Dnnce if a teller; but there is an old sarin', 'Put not yinir trust iu 'Ah! pixir Campbell' he "was a poet, a good poet, a beautiful poet! He know'd all about the wortuot tinaeiualiou, and tne realms ot tancy: but he didn't know nothing at all about this world ol our of the realm of Kngiaud, or be never would nave talked ot the 'lleasiires of Hope' ror an author.
