Q3Q 3 §
[Translated from the German.]
LOUIS OFFON GOELICKE,
of Germany,
The Greatest of Human Benefactors.
Citizens of North and South America ,
To Louis Offon Goelicke, M. D., of Germany,
[Europe,] belongs the imperishable honor of adding
a new and precious doctrine to the scfonce of medi
cine—a doctrine which, though vehemently opposed
by many of the faculty, (of which he is a valuable
member,) he proves to be as well founded in truth
as any doctrine of Holy Writ —a doctrine, up >p the
verity of which are suspended the lives of mi llions
of our race, and which he boldly challenges op
posers to refute, viz : Consumption is a dise?'4e al
wavs occasioned by a disordered state of Vis- it®
(or*Life Principle) of the human body:
secretly lurking in the system for years by fore
there is the least complaint of the Lungs md
which may be as certainly, though not so quickly,
cured, as z common cold or a simple headache.• An
invaluably precious doctrine this, as D irr:par|.s an
important lesson to the apparently healthy of! both
sexes, teaching them that this insidious foejmay
be an unobserved inmate of their “ clayey houses”
even while they imagine themselves secure Srcm
As attacks, teaching them that the great secret ijithe
art of preserving health is to pluck out the disease
when in the blade, and not wait till the full gf.iwn
ear. .
This illustrious benefactor of man is also entitled
to youi unfeigned gratitude, and the gratitude iff a
world,for the invention of his matchless Sanative,
—whose healing fiat may justly claim lor it sych a
title, since it has so signally triumphed over our
great common enemy, (JX/’ Consumption, botji in
the first and last stages, —a medicine which] has
thoroughly filled the vacuum in the MateriaMeijica,
an(j thereby proved itself the i Conqueror of phy
tic iansjff) —a medicine, lor which all mankind
will have abundant cause to bless the beneficent
hand of a kind Providencea medicine
wondrous virtues have been so glowingly pourtiay
ed even by same of our clergy, in their pastltral
visits to tee sick chamber ; by which means tpey
often become the happy instruments of changinglie
sponding into hope, sickness into health, and s|ui
of friends into joyfulness |
4 A Q Q Q j
GOELICKE’S MATCHLESS SANATIVEf
A medicine of more value to man than the 'y,st
mines of Austria, or even the united treasures of
our globe,—a medicine, which is obtained eqxuM.y
from the vegatable, animal and mineral kingdoms,
and thus possesses a three-fold power, —a medieijie,
which, though designed as a remedy for consump
tion solely, is possessed of a mysterious influence
over many diseases of the human system, —a mc|U
cine, which begins to be valued by physicians,v>\\o
are daily witnessing its astonishing cures of ma: y
whom they had icsigned to the grasp of the
tiable Grave.
DOSE of the Sanative, for adults, one drop; for
children, a half-drop; and for infants, a quarter
drop ; the directions explaining the manner of fa
king a half or a quarter drop. ,
Price— Three and one-third rix dollars (s2,tO)

A certificate from three members of the Medical
Profession in Germany, in Europe. j
We, the undersigned, practitioners of medicine
in Germany, are well aware that, by our coursp,
we may forfeit the friendship of some of the facul
ty, but not of its benevolent members, who are un
influenced by selfish 1 hough we shsl 1
refrain from an expression of our opinion, eith |r
of the soundness or unsoundness of Dr. Goelick,:-
new doctrine, we are happy to say that we deefi
his Sanative too valuable not to be generally
known—for what our eyes behold and our eaj
hear, we must believe. j
We hereby state, that when Dr. Louis Offeli
Goelick first came before the German public, s|r
the pretended discoverer of a new doctrine and |> -
new medicine, we held him in the forest coni
tempt, believing and openly pronouncing him to
a base impostor and the prince of quacks. But, oj ;
hearing so much said about the Sanative, against i*
and for it, we were induced, from motives of cum*
osity merely, to make trial of its reputed virtue.*
upon a number of our most hopeless patients; ans
we now deem it our bounden duty (even at th(j
expense of self-interest) publicly to acknowledge
its efficacy in curing not only consumption, bu|
other fearful maladies, which we have heretofore
believed to be incurable. Our contempt for th»,
discoverer of this medicine was at once swallo.ved
up in our utter astonishment at these unexpected
results ; and, as amends for our abuse ot him, wr
do frankly confess to the world, that we believd
him a philanthropist, who does honor to the profes-|
sicn, and to our country, which gave him birth. »
The recent adoption of this medicine into some;
of our European hospitals, is a sufficient guaranty*
that it performs all promises. It needed not our?
estimouy,for wherever it is used it is its own best*
wi ness. HERM AN ETMULLER, m. d. !

THE MATCHLESS SANATIV£._By an article t

VALUABLE TOWN PROPERTY.
THE subscriber will sell his house and lots, si
tuated in the town of Madison, Morgan coun
ty, upon liberal terms, having more vested in town
property than be has any use for. The stand is
one of the best in Madison, well calculated for a
house of entertainment, dry good store, or whole
sale grocery. The property will be sold for ne
groes, dry goods, groceries, or rail road stock, upon
fair terms, and possession given on the first of Ja
nuary next, or sooner if required; and for good pa
per, well secured, at one, two, and three years, by
paying one-third when is given. For a
house of entertainment there is a good opening at
present, and when the rail road is completed to Ma
dison, will make the property valuable for any bu
siness of the place. In the event of a sale, the sub
scriber will continue his mercantile operations as
heretofore, having another stand for his business.

Sketch of a Small Beer Politician.
“Mr. Simeon Jenkins entered at an early stage
of his career upon the arena of public life, hav
ing been employed by his honored mother to dis
pose of a basket full of hard-boiled eggs, on elec
tion day, before he was eight years old. He of
ten dwells with much unction upon this, his de
but ; aad declares that even at that dawning pe
riod, he had cut his eye teeth.
•There was’nt a feller there,’Mr. Jenkins often
says, ‘that could find out which side I was on,
for all they tried hard enough. They thought I
was soft, but I let ’em know I was as much baked
as any on ’em. ‘Be you a democrat!’ says one.
‘Buy some eggs and I’ll tell ye, says I; and by
the time he’d bought his eggs, I could tell well
enough which side he belonged to, and I’d hand
him out a ticket accordingly, fori had blue ones
in one end o’ my basket, and whites ones in the
other, and when night come, and I got off the
stump to go home, I had 18 shillin’ and four
pence in my pocket.”
From this auspicious commencement may be
dated Mr. Jenkins’ glowing desire to serve the
public. Each successive election day saw him at
his post. From eggs he advanced to pies, from
pies to almanacs, whiskey, powder and shot, foot
balls, playing cards, and, at length, for ambition
ever “did grow with what it fed on,” he brought
into the field a large turkey, which was tied to a
post and stoned to death at twenty-five cents a
throw. By this time the still youthful aspirant
had become quite the man of the world; could
smoke twenty-four cigars per diem, if any hotly
else would pay fer them; play cards in old Hur--
ler’s shop, from noon till day-break, and rise win
ner ; and all this with suitable trimmings of gin
and hard words. But he never lost sight of the
main chance. He has made up his mind to serve
his country, and he was all this time convincing
his fellow-citizens of the disinterested purity of
his sentiments.
“ Patriotism,” he would say, ‘ patriotism is the
thing! Any man that is too proud to serve his
country, ainf fit to live. Some think so much o’
themselves, that if they can’t have jist what they
think they’re fit for, they won’t take nothing:
but for my part, I call myself an American citi
zen ; and any office that’s in the gift o’the people
will suit me. I’m to any thing. And as there
aint no other man about here—no suitable man,
I mean—that’s got a horse, why Fd be willing to
be constable, if tiie people’s a mind t®, though it
would be a dead loss to me in my business, to be
sure ; but I could do any thing for my country.
Hurrah for patriotism ! that’s my sentiments.’
“It can scarcely be doubted that Mr. Jenkins
became a very popular citizen, or that be usually
played a conspicuous part at the polls. Offices
began to fall to his share, and though they were
generally such as brought him more honor than
profit, otiice is office, and Mr. Jenkins did not
grumble—Things were going on admirably.
“ The spoils of office glitter in his eyes,
He climbs,he pants, he grasps them
Or thought he was just going to grasp them,-
when presto I he found himself in the minority ;
the wheel of fortune turned, and Mr. Jenkins and
his party were left undermost. He was in a dilem
ma T His zeal in the public service was as ardent
as ever, but how could he get a chance to shew
it unless his party was in power] His resolution
was soon taken. He called friends together,
mounted a stump, which had fortunately been
left standing not far from the door of his shop,
and then and there gave “ reasons for my ratting”
in terms sublime enough for any meridian.
“ ‘My friends and fellow citizens,’ said this self
sacrificing patriot, ‘I find myself conglomerated'
in sich away, that my leclin’s suffers severely.
I’m sitivated in a peculiar sitivation. O’ one side
I see my friends, pusssonal friends—friends, that’s
stuck to me like wax, through, thick and thin,
never shinny in’ off and on, but up to the scratch,
and no mistake. O’ t’other side I hold my coun
try, my bleedin’ country, the land that fetched
me into this world o’ trouble. Now, sence things
he as they be, and, can’t be otherways as I see, F>
feel kind o’ screwed into an augur hole to know
what to do. If I hunt over the lastory of the
universal world, from the creation of man Id the
present day, I see that men has always had diffi
culties, and that some has took one way to get
out of ’em, and some another. My candid and
unrefragable opinion is, that rather than remain
useless, buckled down to the shop, and indulging
in selfishness, it is ray solemn dooty to change
my ticket. It is severe, my friends, but dooty is
dooty. And now, if any man calls me a turn,
coat,’ continend the orator, gently spitting in his
hands, rubbing them together, and rolling his eyes
round the assembly, ‘ all I say is, let him say it so
that I can hear him.”
“ The last argument was irresistible, if even
the others might have baulked discussion, for Mr.
Jeakins stands six feet two in his stockings, when
he wears any, and gesticulates with a pair of arms
as long and muscular as Rob Roy’s. So, though,
the audience did not cheer him they contented
themselves with dropping off one by one, without
calling in question the patriotism of the rising
statesman.
' “The very next election saw Mr. Jenkins jus
tice of the peace, and it was in this honorable ca
pacity that I have made most of my acquaintance
with him, though we began with threatenings of
a storm. He called to tike the acknowledgment
of a deed, and I, anxious for my country’s honor,
for I too am something of a patriot in my own
' way, took the liberty of pointing out to his notice
a trifling slip of the pen ; videlicit— ‘ Justas of
Piece,’ which manner of writing those words I
informed him had gone out of date.
“ He reddened, looked at me very sharp for a
momentt, and then said he thanked’ me;-but sub
joined t
u ‘ Book-learning is a good thing enough where
there aint too. much of it. For my part, I’ve
seen a good many that know’d books that did’nt
know much else. The proper cultivation and
edication of the human intellect, has been the
comprehensive study of the human understanding
from the original creation of the universal world
to the present day, and there has been a good
many ways tried besides book-learning. Not
but what that’s very well in its place.’
“ And the justice took his leave with somewhat
of a swelling air. But we are excellent friends,
notwithstanding this hard rub; and Mr. Jenkins,
favors me now and then with bait an hour s con
versation, when he has had leisure to read up for
the occasion in an odd volume of the Oyclopaidia,
which holds an. honored place in a corner of his
shop. He ought, in fairness, to give me previous
notice, that I might study the dictionary a little,
for the hard words with which he arms himself
for these‘keen encounters,’ often push me to the
very limits of my English,”

one of the landings above a few days since, lea

was immediately raised ‘Passenger behind—Pas

eyes and: bawling. ‘Whp’s left 1 L mat me, is it?*
