    weans of enjoyment,' and to shield ourselves from those evils (hat may be happily avoided, by a display of that resolution with which we are invested by nature for our manifest preservation. The potent power of medicine, is one of the <^reatest blessings that has et^er been discovered for our mental and corporeal repose ; for, when sickness affects the body, the mind is weakened iii proportion to the extent of the complaint. If the space allotted for repose is disturbed by unpleasant dreams, who would not exert every effort in his power to render them more calm and tranquil? and-as the fancyis particularly alert, during this temporary suspension ‘of the more active powers of life, the immedi¬ ate object of our care, should be to have our sleep accompanied with visions, that would, when the spells of Morpheus had subsided, afford us a pleasing and agreeable retrospection. Frofn these remarks on sleep, this inference may be drawn in more active life, should the invalid neglect to apply in time, when afflicted with any of the disor¬ ders eradicated by DR. BRODUM’S BOTANICAL SYRUP and NERVOUS CORDIAL, he will deserve.to remain as unpitied as he who neglects to administer to his own comfort in the endeavouring to obtain a placid and undisturbed repose. The person wLo is obsti¬ nate when the renovation of his health is in contemplation, and will not believe the representations of his friends, when speaking from confirmed experience, — deserves not to partake of those comforts which the re-establishment of the system would infallibly produce. Nothing more strongly, confirms the truth of the intrinsic worth of these excellent medicines, than the confirmation of the following pro- lessors of the University of Copenhagen, who being atthe summit of their art, cannot be supposed any otherwise interested than in the pre-^ servation and happipess of their fellow-creatures.
