£3T Douglas Jerrold, one of the
famed clique of London Punch satirists,
is coming to America to lecture. Jer
rold commenced life as a sailor, and af
ter six years salt water experience be
carno a compositor in a London newspa
per office. His first literary achievement
was an essay on German music, which
the author after the manner of Benjamin
Franklin, dropped into that lion's mouth*
the editor’s box, where ho was a printer
and two days after he had the delight
of setting up his own article, none of the
editors being aware of the author’s name.
Jerrold next dropped another anonymous
article in the box on Fashionable Char
ity, which is written with all his peculiar
vigor. This caused so great a stir that
the editor, in his notices to correspon
dents, begged the nutlnr to call upon
him—in other words, he was requested
to “Stand, and unfold yourself.” He
did, much to the astonishment of the
editor, who at once recognising his tal
ents, took him from the case, and put
him to the desk.
Victoria and Albert. —The London
correspondent of the Biitish Advertiser
tells the following anecdote of the Queen:
A rather remarkable picture is now being
exhibited in Piccadilly, the production,
I believe, of a Mr. Bartlett, curious
enough, a Quaker. It is a represen
tation of the visit of the Queen and roval
family to the wounded Crimean soldiers
at the Brompton hospital. It is said that
this picture was taken at a rather curious
moment. The Queen was standing,
with tears in her eyes, talking to a poor
fellow who had got sadly shattered in
battle. Trince Albert stood impassive
and unmoved. The royal mistress, who
is a woman, was mortified by his vacant
and unfeeling look, and petulantly said
to him, her voice still quivering with
sympathy, “ I)o sav something to the
man, and not stand stat ing in that way.”

Dr. Ayer’s new Pills excel in lijgh med

Lately a lady in New York,''who is a
very expert skater, nffeied the prize of a
kiss to any one who could catch her.
This offer spread like lightning—she star
ted off—dozens started in pursuit, and
she was, after a good run. captured by a
negro, who good maniiertdly and politely
declined the forfeit.
A lady made a complaint to Frederick
the Great, King of Prussia. “ Your
Majesty,” said she, “ my husband treats
me badly.”
“ That is none of my business,” re
plied the King. “ But he speaks very
ill of yon,” said the lady.
“That,” he replied, “is none of your
business.”

OBITUARY.
It is a gracious arrangement, that surviving
friends can, in some degree, relieve bereavement
of its sadness, by contemplating the virtues that
adorned the living.
The recent death of John Porter Barrow, af
fords to.those who knew him, whether they re
gard the past or look to the feture, the liveliest
satisfaction. Memory culls from the past many
tender and endearing recollections, while hope
regards the future with bright and assured anti
cipation.
The deceased was an intimate friend of the wri
ter, who rejoiced in his frienship while living, and
now that he is dead recalls past hours of social
nod religious communion, to soften the sorrow of
the present, and relieve the future of every fear.
His genial disposition rendered him a delightful
companion, and made his presence a perpetual
sunshine. He was eminently qualified, by his
simplicity and frankness, to ivinfchis way to the
heart and retain the affections which he won. If
there was no other memorial of our departed
friend, his name would long linger in the memo
ry of those who have, in the social enjoyments of
life, heard his kindly greeting, and interchanged
with him the sweets of generous friendship.
Rut there is another agpect of his character,
which gives Uim not only a tenderer interest in
our recollections, but bids our sorrows cease by
the assurance, that he rests from his labors and
lives with God. Our friend was a Christian—the
highest style of man, A long, lingering sickness,
without the hope of recovery, tested its geuine
ness, and proved it scriptural and sound. Our
sorrow at his death is not without hope, for we
know that they who sleep in Jesus, shall rise with
the power and glory an endless life. Ye that
weep about his grave and mourn a son and broth"
er, dry up your tears, and so live, that when the
summons comes, you may, like him, have hope in
death, and with him rise to a blessed immortality.

Minutes.
Messrs. Perry Davis & Son— Gents :
A merchant of Linnoens, in this State, informs
me that recently one of his sons was severely
bitten on the leg by a rattlesnake, from the es.
sects of which he suffered most dreadfully. The
family chancing to have some of Perry Davis’
Pain Killer in the house immediately commenced
bathing the bitten place, without knowing wheth.
er it would or not aflord the least relief, but sur
prising as it may seem, the poison was soon ob
served to exhude from the wound, aud in five

except the flesh wound, which healed verv soon.

The Grand Secret of Health.
At least one half of our sick population
of both sexes and all ages, might enjoy robust
health if they could only be brought to believe,
practically, that ‘ cleanliness is next to godliness.’
For this reason every invention of genius and
discovery of science that renders bathing a luxu
ry, merits the thanks and patronage of every re
al philanthropist. The “ Jlalm of a Thousand
Flmcers,” more than any other cosmetic in the
world, effects this object: it impregnates the wa.
ter —hard and soft, hot and cold—with a medici
nal property very invigorating to the body, and
gives to it an oily softness, and sweet perfume,
which cause the bather a delicious feeling of per
sonal comfort, purity and health.

TO THE CITIZENS OF MADISON
AND VICINITY.
T WOULD call vour attention to invnew prep
aration, known as “ BLISS’ DYSPEPTIC
REMEDY.” This medicine is anew medical
compound, and is the result of long practice, ex
tensive observation, and close study of all disea
ses haviug their origin in a disordered state ofthe
stomach, and adapted to every stage of those dis
eases, from their incipient symptoms to those in
which they have assumed a Chronic form; and
although but yet in its infancy, it has gained a
notoriety and reputation very s Idom attained
by any ‘ pateut’ preparation. This Remedy is no
quack' nostrum, got up to gull the people, and
fleece them out of their money, but a medicine
which, together With the treatment prescribed to
accompany the taking of the medicine, has the
sanction of years of successful application in pri
vate practice, and wiU not fail to cure the most
stubborn case of Dyspepsia, no matter of how
long stand*ng, or how severe it may be, provided
the directions are closely followed out. It was
not suddenly hit upon , nor dreamed of, but is the
accretion of facts and experiments collected in
the daily rounds of duty as a practicing Physi
cian, and is given to the public in a popular form
in the hope, as in the belief, that it will not fail
in giving relief to the sufferer from Dyspepsia,
and all other diseases having their origin in the
stomach, in any instance when the directions are
properly attended to. It has received the high
est encomiums from the first physicians through
out the North and South—it lias been tried, re
commended and certified to by some eminent ju
rists and statesmen in the country, all of which
shall appear in due time. Physicians of large
practice are now using it and relying upon it a
tone in these diseases in their practice, and recom
mend it to their friends as worthy their best con
fidence.
It is entirely dissimilar to any autl even* prep
aration of the kind now before the. people.
originator, entertaining views and opinions
what at variance with the preserfbed notions
among Medical Men, generally, ns regards
the nature of these diseases, has in this prep
aration, brought together medical agents of
known utility and worth, in the form of anew
combination, making a compound altogether and
entirely new, and one that Will not fail in effect
ing a cure, if directions are followed and perse
vered in. The undersigned is well aware that
the same encouragement has been given, and the
same promises made, over and over again, by
manufacturers of patent medicines, as regards
their different preparations, and as voucher for
the curative qualities of this preparation, and for
the purpose also of giving additional weight to
whatever he may say ns regards this preparation
he would beg to refer to the fact that he is the
originator, manufacturer and proprietor of the
well known ‘Jacob’s Cordial,’ the curative prop
erties of which in Cholera, Dysentery and Diar
rhcea, are now being proclaimed by thousands in
every section ofthe country, as being all that he
ever said of it.
The undersigned docs not profess to be a phil
anthropist, or that he is uniUluenoed by consid
erations of pecuniary profit in placing the Rem
edy before tne people, but he iloe* know that while
he may be realizing a pecuniary protit, fellow-suf
ferers will realize that which is of far more im
portance to them than all the wealth of India.
Dyspepsia, like Gout, may be said to be a sash,
ionable disease; it more readily than any othcr
in various of its forms and to a greater extent,
finds its victims in the wealthy and aristocratic
circles, especially in large cities, audits insidious
workings are often the real, though undiscovered
cause of the sallow cheek, the dull, heavy eye and
general inertia—indisposition to either mental or
physical effort, which are erroneously attributed
to other causes.
Scenes of luxurious case arc not, however,
alone the hamits of this destroyer of the health
and enjoyment of myriads of mankind. Other
condition's of life there are iu which it revels
over faded and emaciated forms, and dispirited
and despairing hearts. The sedentary labors of
the counting-house and the study, not less than
the intense excitement and irregularities of busi
er occupations of mercantile life, are proinotive
of it; each daily adding to the number of its sub
jects. But our (that is the physician and his pa
tients,) object is not, having once discovered the
disease, so much to trace it back to its source, as
to remove it from where we find it, and to estab
lish a healthful and vigorous action of the vari
ous organs, bv use of the proper agencies, and to ,
restore to their natural functions these organs,
which had been pervaded by disease.
Lest I may be regarded in the same light as
other proprietors of ‘ patents,’ who recommend
tin ir preparations as 1 sovereign balms’ for any
and every disease fletih is heir to, I wish to point
you to the fact that f shall recount end its trial
only in diseases of the Stomach and Digestive
Organs, and those other diseases which in my o
pinion have their rise and origin in those organs.
And I wish also to point you to the fact that in
I ho short medical dssavs that I shall give you from
week to week, instead of asserting merely that
1 Bliss’ Dyspeptic Remedy’ will cure such and
such diseases, and obliging you to depend upon
my ipse dixit for the truth of that assertion, as a
great majority of those who have gone before me
have done, and are doing every day through the
columns of newspapers, instead, I'say, of doing
this, I shall take no little pains, and go to no very
small expense in purchasing space in advertising
columns, for the purpose not only of recommend
ing the trial of this preparation, but giving you
at the same time, the cause, true indication of
treatment , cure, Ac., and also my reasons for re
commending the trial of the Remedy in each dis
ease treated upon, l not only shall say to you
that it will cure such and such diseases, but shall
at the same time tell von why and haw it will ef
fect a cure. I shall do this that I may give you
my views as regards the nature and treatment of
the different diseases, which differ in some res
pects from those of the medical profession gen
erally.
That my labors have not been in vain I have
the ample proofs in the fact that the Remedy
has been and is now being tested by hundreds
and thousands throughout the country, and more
than this, I have received the;most flattering let
ters not only from those out of the profession,
but those in it, some of whom are the first physi
cians in their section of the country; and 1 must
confess that so manj r candid avowals of its true
remedial worth from physicians, not only produ
ces no small degree or satisfaction in my mind,
but it does, I must confess, surprise me, knowing
as I do that medical ineu generally, instead of re
ceiving, examining, and trying anew remedy are
very apt to rise up simultaneously and systemat
ically in bristling hostility against any thing of
the kind. That it is a sovereign remedy for the
diseases that I shall bring before your notice, I
do know, for I have tested the preparation for
years in my private practice, and know liow far
and in what diseases it may be relied up m. Ido
know that, it may be relied upon and with the
greatest confidence in
DYSPEPSIA,
No matter of how long standing, or however stub
born a case it may have been. If the directions
are closely followed and persevered in it will not
fail to cure. So also in
CONSTIPATION,
Even of years’ standing, and having resisted eve
ry kind of treatment, 1 do know that it will, if ta
ken in good faith, remove every vestige ot the
disease, for as I shall show, when. I come to des
cribe that difeasc, that it is a ofthe diges
tive organs alone, instead of.being, as many sup
pose, a disease of the lower bowels. In
‘‘DEBILITY,”
Also, I most unhesitatingly recommend it, for, as
I shall show there is no such disease as “ general
debilitv,” but that the state of system looked upon
as “ debility,” is only symptomatic of disease of
the digestive organs. And so, also, in
WASTING IN FLESH,
I shall describe its action in bringing about a
cure in this disease, or rather symnton of n dis
ease, viz: a congested and irritated state of the
digestive organs. This condition of system and
its causes have been very much overlooked by
the Profession generally, and is regarded by a
great many in the same light as it is by those out
ofthe profession, viz: that it is natural to some
to be poor in flesh, attenuated and bony; but a
greater mistake never existed for such a condi
tion of system, whether hereditary, or brought
about by natural causes, is the result of diseased
action of the digestive organs, and can be easily
removed and the whole person to assume a full,
plump, round, and healthy appearance. In
V CHRONIC DIARRHEA,
Also, I shall describe its curative virtues, and
shall show that instead of that disease being like
the acute form, a disease ofthe bowels, is a dis
ease ofthe stomach, and that any and every case
may be not only relieved, but permanently cured
by persevering in the taking of the Remedy. So,
PALPITATION,
Which I shall also in due time treat upon, it is a
sovereign remedy in the functional or nervous
form ofthe disease, having its rise and origin in
diseased digestive organs. For strictural organ
ic disease ofthe heart, there is no cure; this is
produced by the functional or nervous form of
the disease, and this latter by disease of the
stomacL. In the so-called
“LIVER DISEASE,”
(Avery vague and unmeaning term, however,) it
shows its remedical virtues to a permanent de
gree. So, also, in
K nervousness,
And many other chronic diseases, all having
their origin in diseases of the digestive organs,
(all of which I shall sooner or later treat upon,)
the 41 Remedy ” is, of all others, the one which
the most explicit confidence and reliance may be
placed, providing it is taken regularly, and per
severed in, and all the accompanying directions
carried out so far as circumstances may permit.
Iu using this Remedy, its beneficial edicts
may be looked for at once. It will begin to re
lieve, aud the patient will know that rcSortry
has commenced within 48 or 72 hours, or, at
farthest, by the time he has taken thecoutcnts of
one package. To those trying the effect of this

strate to the patient that lie is being benefitted.
If it is used in a case of Dyspepsia, where pain
or other distressing feelings attend the taking of
food upon the stomach, I suggest that the pa
ncut, after using the Remedy tor three or four
days, and following closely the other directions,
partake of some articles of food which he had
known previously to disagree with him, and he
will discover that it no longer produces the dis
agreeable effect. Sufferers from Dyspepsia, ner

stitutions, uy one package; follow out closely all
thejjaccopinaiiving directions, and prove the truth
or falsity of wWt 1 have said of the Remedy. I
would, however, remark, that unless you deter
mine to take the medicine and follow out all di
rections ns given. I prefer you would let it alone
entirely,and not buy it; p'referrihg much rather
going without vour money than have you take it

ALL HAIL!!!
SOMETHING FOR THE MILLION!!
WE cull the attention of all, old and young,
to this wonderful preparation, which turns
back to its original color grey hair—covers the
head of the bald with a luxuriant growth—re
moves the dundrulf, itching, and all cutaneous
eruptions—causes a continual flow of the natural
fluids; and hence, if used as a regular dressing
for the hair, will preserve its color, and keep it
from falling to extreme old age, in all its beauty.
We call, then, upon the bald, the gray, or dis
eased in scalp, to use it: and surely, the young
will not, as they value the flowing locks, or the
witching curls, ever be without it. Its praise is
upon the longue of thousands.
Waterford, Mars., July 2/5, 1855.
Pkof. 0. J. Wood —With confidence do I re
commend your Hair Restorative, as being the
most ellicacious article I ever saw. I have used
the Walphene and other preparations of the day,
all without effect. Since using your Ilair Resto-1
rative, my hair and whiskers, which Wire almost J
white, have gradually grown dark; and I now
feel confident, that a few more applications will j
restore them to their natural color. It ulso has |
relieved me of all dandruff* and unpleasant itch- j
ing, so common among persons who perspire free
ly? , J. G. KILBY.
North East Pennsylvania, March 9,1805.
Slit—ln consequence of having hair, for seve
ral years past, not only gray, but perfectly white,
I have cut it short, and worn caps to hide it from
view; but some three months since 1 was induced
to use your Hair Restorative, and I must in jus
tice say, that its effects were almost miraculous;
for it lias changed it gradually to almost its for
mer splendor as to color, and left it so soft, and
glossy as to be more beautiful than it ever was,
when under the influence Os the finest oil. I ear
nestly, therefore, recommend it to every lady as
decidedly, the best preparation for toilet use, of
anything in the world. BETSY SMITH.
I’hof. Wood— Having experienced the magic
effect of your Hair Restorative, 1 drop you tins
upon the subject. About two years ago, my hair
commenced falling oil and turning gray ; I was
fast becoming bald. I met a friend who bad used
your Restorative, and spoke so highly of its vir
tues, I was induced to try it, although 1 had but
little faith, us I had before tried so many other
remedies. I commenced using your Restorative
m January last. A few applications fastened my
hair firmly. It began to till up, grow out, and
turned back to its former color, ( black.) At this
time it is fully restored to itsonginal color, health
and appearance, and I cheerfully recommend its
use to all. J. D. HOES.
Chicago, 111., May 1, 1851.
Milford , 11 'orenter co. Mass., Nov. 13,1854.
Prof. 0. J. Wood—Dear Sir: 1 take pleasure
in bearing voluntary testimony to the magic ef
fects of your wonderful Hair Restorative. As
far back as 1836, my hair commenced falling off,
until the top of my scalp became bald and smooth
as glass, and it has continued to fall for a great
many years, notwithstanding I have used many
celebrated preparations for its restoration. See
ing your advertisement, I was induced to give
your article a trial, and, to my utter astonish
ment, I found, after a few applications, that my
hair became firmly set, and assumed a glossy
and beautiful appearance; and by the time I had
used a quart bottle, my bald head was covered
over with a young and vigorous growth of hair,
which is now from one to two inches in length,
and growing fast.
I'ours, truly, IIENItY GOODRICH.
New York, Oct. 2, 1854
Prof. 0. J. Wood— Dear Sir: After reading
the advertisement in one of the New York jour
nals, of your celebrated Hair Restorative, 1 pro
cured a hull-pint bottle, and was so much pleased
with it, that I continued its use for two months,
and am satisfied it is decidedly the best prepara
tion before the public. It at once removed all
dandruff and unpleasant itching from the scalp,
and lias restored my hair naturally, and, I have
no doubt, permanently so.
You have permission to refer to me, all who
entertain any doubt of its performing aJI that is
claimed for it.
MISS FEEKS, 26 1-2 Greenwich Avenue,
I have used Professor O. J. Wood s Ilair Res
torative, and have admired its wonderful effects.
