The great constitutional debate in the General Synod on the Formularies Bill concluded last night shortly before midnight, having lasted three sitting days, during which time no fewer than 35 members spoke to the question, including five bishops, one dean, four archdeacons, nine other clergymen, and sixteen lay men. As will be seen by our report leave to bring in the Bill was refused, all the b 'shops voting for it, but 12 to 7 of the clergy and 14 to 5 of the laity against it.

All Persons of Intelligence are aware, or should be, in this century of enlightenmeut, that the best vehicle for diffusing the tonic properties of any medicinal preparation throughout the system is a pure, wholesome spirit. The presence of distilled spirit in an invigorant, provided it to be pure, is considered by physicians to greatly promote tbe operation of the remedial principle in combination with it. This is one reason why medical men so strongly recommend UDOLrno Wolfe's Schiedam Akomatic Scunapi'S as a remedy for debility.
