Sunshine of Matrimony. It is folly for girls to expect to be hap py without marriage; every woman was made for a mother; consequently chi! dren areas necessary to their peace of mind, as health is. If you wish to behold mel ancholy and indigestion, look at an old maid ; if you would take a peep at sun shine, look in the face of a young mother. “ Now, I wont stand that,” replies mv aunt. “I'm an old maid myself, and I’m neither melancholy nor indigestible. My piece of mind I’m going to give you in a minute; I never would touch a babv, during my existence, except with a pair of tongs. Young mothers and sunshine , indeed! why, they are worn to fiddle strings before they are five-and twenty. When an old lover steps in, lie thinks he sees his grandmother, instead of the dear lttle Mary who used to make him feel as if he should crawl out of the toes of his boots. \ es, my mind is quite made up about matrimony. But, as to babies— (sometimes I think, and then again I don 1 ! know,) —on the whole, I believe 1 con sider’em a decided humbug. It’s a one sided partnership, this marriage: the wife cists up all the accounts.. The husband gets up in the morning, and pays his devoirs to the looking glass, curls his fine head of hair, puts on an immaculate shirt bosom, ties an excruciating cravat, sprinkles his handkerchief with cologne, stows awav a French roll, an egg and a cup of coffee, gets into an omnibus, looks slantendiculur at the pretty girls, and makes love between the pauses of business in the afternoon. The wife must herme tically seal the windows, and shut out the fresh air, (because the baby had the snuffles in the night,) and sits down, gasping, at the table, more dead than alive, to finish her breakfast. Tommy spills a cup of hot coffee down his bosom; Juliana lias torn off the strings of her school bonnet ; James wants his geogra phy covered ; Eliza can’t find her satchel; the butcher wants to know if she’d like ! a joint of mutton ; the milkman wants his money; the ice man wants to speak to her just a minute ; the baby swallows a pin ; the husband sends the boy from the store to say Ilia partner will dine with him ; the cook leaves all flying to go to her sister’s dead baby’s wake ; and the husband’s thin coat must be ironed before noon.

Have you a diseased Liver ? Tiik question, though startling, is suffi ciently suggestive, when the fact is taken into consideration that diseases of the Liver have be come most alarmingly frequent in Ilic United States. Indeed, there are few fornrdable disea ses that are not in some way traceable to a de_ ranged state of that important organ. Many of the complaints usually classed under the head of Consumption, have their origin in the Liver. “Any remedy that would insure regularity and healthful action in the Liver, would beablessing to mankind!” has been the exclamation of thou sand-'. That remedy has been found; it is safe and sure. When a fair trial has been afforded it it has never been known to fail. Reader, have you any disease of the Liver, or disease which you believe proceeds from hepatic derangement?

WISTAR’S BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY, I take this op portunity of offering a word in its favor, which you are also at liberty to publish. A few months since my wife’s lungs became so much affected by a sudden cold, that she lost her voice, and suf fered severely from pains in the breast. Her sit uation caused her friends much alarm. Having heard your Balsam strongly recommended by those who had used it., I purchased a bottle of your agent in this place. She took it according to directions, and it produced a wonderful effect. Before using one bottle, she had completely re covered her voice, the pains subsided, and her health was soon fully restored. Y’rs, truly, (Signed,) HENRY G. BRIGHTMAN. None genuine unless signed I.

Bite of a Kattlcsnakc cured in five Minutes. Messrs. Perry Davis & Sox— Gents: A merchant of I.innoeus, in this State, informs me that recently one us his sons was severely hitten on the leg by a rattlesnake, from the ef fects 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 afford the least relief,.but sui prising as it innv seem, the poison was soon ob served to cxlmde from the wound, and in five or ten minutes thevonngman fell asleep, entire, ly free from any pain, or any effect from the bit? except the flesh wound, which healed.very soon.

A knowledge of this fact ts of the utmost importance to the phvsician, as well also to the patient. How this extension of dis-ease from the stomach to other organs takes place the principle upon which it proceeds—the m mptoms exhibited in the course of its extension, arv of the first importance in the guidance to wards philosophical treatment. Ignorance as re gards these points, has been and is daily being the source ot the most dangerous treatment, and the very treatment which is the cause of myriads of uncured cases, worn out and debilitated con stitutions, and of those long trains of morbid symptoms which attend too many patients thro’ life, known ami called ‘general disease’—a term, however, without any meaning, from the fact that there is no such state of system as ‘general dis ease,’ as will be eudeavored to be shown in mv advertisement of next week. Chronic disease of the stomach produces dis ease in other organs through the agency of the nervous system; the disturbance or irritation created by diseased points in the stomach, is car ried along the uerves to some near organ with which it nas a nerve communication, and the dis ease there set up is said to be a sympathetic dis ease, or the organ is said to be secondarily affec ted. As an instance of this sympathy, a person receiving a blow upon the head, the blow is fol lowed almost immediately by vomiting—the stomach sympathises with the disturbed or irri tated brain. Again, any indigestible matter ta ken upon the stomach produces headache—in this case, the brain sympathises with the stomach. This extension of disease, which takes place along or through these nerves is either occasnmai or penwincnt t and the frequent repetition of the former produces the latter—for instance, Dyspep sia, or a small po nt of inflammatory action ot the stomach produces headache, dizziness, sleepless ness, fullness of the blood vessels of the brain fiusbed face, Ac. These morbid symptoms will continue for a longer or shorter period, die away and disappear, and after a little time recur again —hence me term occasional. The intervals be tween these rccurcnccs become less and less dis tinct, until at last the brain becomes permanent ly involved, and insanity, apoplectic or paralytic congestion, imbecility and death is the result— hence the name permanent. And here 1 would take occasion to advert to the very great importance of attending in time to these primary initiatory symptoms of diseased stomach which are set up as a warning, speaking plainly and forcibly to the patient that unless a correct and proper treatment lie at once institu ted, no matter of how mild a form they may at first appear there is imminent danger ot the brain or some other vital organ becoming perma nently involved. These early symptoms are too frequently overlooked or regarded as some trilling disease that will very soon pass off, and thus the patient lives on, taking no thought of the incrcas- i mg frequency or vein money of those “ trifling j complaints” arising from disease of the stomach, until at last other and important organs, the brain, perhaps, or the lungs, or the heart, or liv er, or some other organs have become almost itn- ! mediately involved. Then it is that the patient, upon retiection, finds that his disease lias long been creeping upon him, gaining, almost imper ceptably in intensity, until some new phase ol the disease suddenly awakens him to notions of his true situation. His friends, perhaps, discover that his ‘•mind is not. exactly light,” that his “ brain is diseased,” and otf the poor patient is hurried t<* the mad-house, there to be treated with the straight jacket, blisters to the shaven scalp, Ac., and no thought perhaps taken by the medi cal attendant, or treatment instituted for th e. first a ret it cause and the continuance of all this trouble, viz: DISEASE OF THE STOMACH. Perhaps, instead of terminating in insanity, a very different phenomenon is exhibited; the surging of the blood towards the brain produces at last a palsy of a limb from partial pressure of the brain or a palsy of the entire locomotion from the pressure of blood on the back portion of the brain, aud the poor patient is obliged, perhaps, to submit to the blood-disgorging operation of the lancet, a shaved and blistered back-bone, stimu lating and burning embrocations, with very little or no good, and probably with no thought on the part of the attending physician of the first great cause and the continuance of the disease, viz: DISEASE OF THE STOMACH. Perhaps, instead of either of the above termi nations, a very much less serious result is the consequence—perhaps merely a pain in the shoul der or head, and Tic Doloureux of the face; and for this Tic Doloureux, the poor patient must down with the calomel, iron, arsenic, Ac.; to be tormented with binning blisters, s.-tons, and the like—the attending physician regarding it, per haps, as a simple local a fleet ion, entirely losing sight of the fact that the. lining membrane of the first great cause and continuance of these pains, viz: Disease of the Stomach, propagating disease in the liver, and the liver in its turn extending its irritation, and producing pain in the shoulder, head and face. Jlow frequently has pain in tin right shoulder been looked upon, named and treated as a case of “liver disease,” “inaction of the liver,” (vague and unmeaning terms, aud in a great majority of cases without any benefit ac cruing from the treatment; and with how much more success might, these si -called “ liver dis.u ses” have been treated had the true pathology of the case—the true cause of the disease, iu fact, the disease, been properly understood —if they had been regarded as the consequence of disease of the stomach, producing morbid action of tin liver, and the latter in it> turn sending its irrita tion to the shoulder, face and head. Perhaps, instead of either of the above terminations taking place, a touch more common one exhibits itself, viz: a disease of the lungs. There is no so com mon an occurrence as disease of the lungs being produced bv disease of the stomach, cannot long exist without producing disease of the lungs, and there never win a case of di-ased lung* hut that was produced in/ disease of the digestive organs. — The disease called Pulmonary Consumption has its origin in disease of the stomach, and from no other source. From the very close nerve con nection between the stomach and the lungs, the latter is a constant recipient of all irritation from the stomach, which tends to tin* formation of tu bercles, the commencement of Pulmonary Con sumption- first, by not only inducing a diseased state of the air tubes, but also by setting up a sympathetic irritat ion in the spongy tissue of the lung; and secondly, by producing a morbid state of the blood in consequence of imperfect digestion offbodbythe inflamed stomach. This idea, I am well aware, as regards the cause of Consump tion, is at variance with the great mass of wise heads of the profession, but it does not make it any the less true. There are as wiseheadsasuny in the profession who have promulgated the doc trine for years, and years ago was I satisfied, from my own observation, that Consumption had its origin in disease of the stomach, and too not in a few isolated cases, but in evert/ instance , and I defy any physician to point to a case of Pulmo nary Consumption that, upon close inquiry and minute examination, it. could not. be found, and beyond a doubt, that, the patient had been previ ously laboring under diseased digestive organs. There is no disease so much dreaded, or looked upon with so much horror, as Consumption.- All sorts of “specifics ” have been invented for its cure; every conceivable combination of drugs almost have been compounded, and the poor suf ferer sent to almost everv corner of the habitable globe for relief, but all to very little purpose. — Physicians take charge of such cases with great hesitation and doubt, and the patient now looks only for temporary and in significant relief. And why is this? Why all this misery and suffering —all this medical labor in vain ? Simply from misconception as regards the true cause of dis ease, viz: Disease of the Digestive Organs. Consumption is as capable of being cured as almost any other disease, when not too far ad vanced—when the lungs are not too much con sumed. It is impossible to create new lungs, or to make them grow out. again and occupy the place of the lung that has been destroyed and annihilated by ulceration, suppuration and ex pectoration ; but when sufficient of the lung re mains for the purposes of their office, not only further destruction mav be remedied, but an en tirely healthy action of the remaining portion oi the lung may be brought about. Facts of cases of Pulmonary Consumption having been cured, and the subject afterwards living to good old age, has been too often shown by post mortum exami nation, to admit now-a-days of a single doubt.— rest assured this end is not attained by “doctor ing” the lungs and having no regard to other diseased organs. No, no, for by prescribing for the lungs, most valuable time is being lost, and without benefiting the patient one particle, for the effect is being “doctored” instead of the cause; but to strike at the root of the evil, and to strike effectively, go at once to the stomach, and there will you find the cause and the ordy cause of all this trouble, and only by removing this can the patient have any hope of recovery.— To talk about curing Consumption by applying remedies to the lungs and taking no thought or instituting no treatment for other diseased parts of the system is all nonsense, and the height of empiricism. No patient was ever cured nor ever will be by such prescriptions. Look well to the stomach—searen there for diseased action (and you will always find a plenty of it) and a treat ment mny he instituted with no little hope of suc cess —a treatment may be instituted that will, in a great majority of cases, cure the patient, provi- ding, of course, the lungs are not too much con sumed. To conclude this already too long advertise moot, l will remark, that there aiv thousands of Clergymen throughout the United States troubled with that very comnitm disease, known us “Cler gyman’s sore throat,’’ and probably not one in one hundred knows the true cause of their dis ease; perhaps from'the fact of its never having been properly explained to them by their physi cian, and possibly also from their physician taking a wrong view as regards its true cause. Out <>f hundreds of eases that have fallen under my ob servation, there has been no siugle instance that it was not attributable to disease of the digestive organs. From the fact of the mucus membrane of the air tubes being a constant recipient of irri tation having its origin in diseased digestive or gans, these air-tubes take on an extreme sensi tiveness which produces a large amount of mor bid accretion, and renders the patient exceeding ly susceptible to cluing, s in the temperature, caus inghim to be continually subject to “ fresh colds’’ and “coughs,” the frequent repetition of which induces that chronic inflammation of the air-tubes known as “Bronchitis” and “Clergymen’s Sore Throat. In conclusion—-to all invalids let me say, that if I have made mention above of the disease with which you are afflicted, rest assured, it is folly for you to hope for either a permanent or speedy cure unless attention is had to the digestive or gans, for there you will find not only the first great cause of your ailment, but the cause also of the continuance of your malady; and I would re spectfully call your attention to the merits of mv Remedy, known as “Bliss' Dyspeptic Remedy ” —a medicine that 1 have made use of extensively in the treatment of the above mentioned diseases for years in mv private practice, and always with the happiest res Its. It t .ken closely, according to directions, it will not fail to cure any case of Dyspepsia or disease of the Stomach, and all other diseases having their origin in that diseased organ. 1 shall, in future advertisements, make mention of other diseases that have their origin in disease of the stomach, and which can onlv be cured by a well directed treatment of that origin alone.

S3— ly ALL IIAIUTT SOMETHING FOR THE MILLION!! W r E call the attention of all, old and young, to this wonderful preparation, which turns hack to its original color grey hair—covers tin head ot the bald with a luxuriant growth—re moves the dandrulf, itching, and all cutaneous eruptions—causes a continual flow of the natural fluids; and hence, if used as a regular dressing fir tin: hair, will preserve its color, and keep i' ln>m falling to extreme old age, in all its beauty. We call, then, upon the bald, the gray, or dis eased iu sculp, to use it; and surely, the young will not, ns they vuhio tin* flowing locks, or tie witching curls, eve* - be without it. Its praise is upon the tongue of thousands. Waterford, Mass., July 25, 1555. Pit of. 0. J.

Since us,ng your Hair Resto rative, my hair and whiskers, which wi re almost white, have gradually grown dark; and I now feel confident, that a few more applications will restore them to their natural c< lor. It also has relieved me of all dandruff and unpleasant itch ing, so common among persons who neivpire frei l.v. J. G. KtLBY. Forth Et/tf. I'enn*;/lntnia, March 9, 1855. Snt—ln consequence of having huir, tor s* vc ml years past, not only gray, but perfect ly white, 1 lmve cut it short, and worn caps to hide it from view; but some three monihssiucc I was induced to use your Hair Restorative, and l must in jus tice say, that its e'dVcls were almost miraculous; lor it lias changed it gradually to almost its for mer splendor as to coior, ami left it so soft and glossy as to be more beautiful than it ever was, when under the influence of the finest oil. I eai nestlv, therefore, recommend it to every lady as decidedly tin* host preparation for toilet use, of anything in the world. BETSY SMITH.

About two years ago.’mv hair commenced falling oft and turning gray ; 1 was fast becoming bald. 1 met u friend wln/had used your Restorative, and spoke so highly of its vir tues, 1 was induced to try it, although I hud but little fin ill, as l had before tried so many other remedies, i commenced using your Restorative m Jammry las!. A few applications fastened my hair firmly. It began to nil up, grow out, and turned back to its former color, black.)

As far back as 1836, my hair commenced falling oil', until the tup of my sculp became bald and smooth as glass, and it lias continued to full for a great many years, notwithstanding l 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 buld 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. lours, truly, HENRY GOODRICH. •V. w Pork, Oct.
