Diagnosis of Senator Sumner.—
Dr. R. M. S. Jackson, the physician who
attended Senator Sumner during his re
cent sojourn among the mountains of
Pennsylvania grows poetieal.in giving the
diagnosis of that injured gentleman’s
hurts. Witness the following :
“ Subject, aged , in the full zenith
of manhood. General normal condition
plus. In vital powers even exuberant.
Temperament nervous-hillious, with some
tinge of lymphatic. Weight with
plneura of physical forces, 200 pounds
avoirdupois. Height six feet two inches,
formal pulse, 76 to 80, with great mus
cular power, walking miles without fa
tigue, and enduring all physical exertions
a s play- Habits, temperate and regular,
not to say abstemious and ascetic. At the
time of the Vandal invasion, this state
was rendered highly morbid by over
work, severe study, intense, unremitting
effort of the braiu, the mind bent upon
one single purpose, even the tragical
creation of an earthquake, an intellectu
al effort that should vibrate from pole to
pole.”
The Doctor!! had better let off his
superfluous steam in the form of an epic,
entitled the “ Diagnosiad.”
Hokrid Anti-Slaverv Outrage.—
Fred Douglas’s paper reports that a
slave was recently secreted in a box and
dispatched to the North, in the care of
Adams & Co.’s Express. Upon arrival
at its destination the box was opened,
when the poor wretch was found dead,
bis countenance horribly contorted, and
his body drawn into a knot. It appear
ed on examination that the box bad no
air holes.

A Queek Operation.— On the 4th
inst., in Shelby, Orleans county, the He- '
publicans put up a Fremont polo one
hundred and thirty feet high. On Sun- .
day morning it was discovered that the
Filltuorites had put a large cross at the i
top of that pole. A large crowd—in- ■
eluding deacons, elders and preachers,
(according to the Rochester Union), ad
vised the procurement of rifles for the pur
pose of shooting away the cross, and the
advice was followed ! What a proceed
ing iu a Christian community on the
Sabbath day! A noisy rabble filing at
the cross .during the hour for church
service ; aiding and abetting, were men
occupying the first positions in the
church! The cross was finally brought
to the ground and the crowd dispersed.
But the finale is not yet. On Monday
morning complaint was made before a
justice of the peace, and a number of
those engaged in the Fremont demon
stration of the day previous, were ar
raigned and fined for a desecration of the
Sabbath, and among them was one of
the preachers who figured most conspicu
ously in the attack upon the cross!—
Troy Whig.
The Spirit Rappers. —The editor of
the’Philadelphia Mercuiy recently attend
ed a Spirit (not liquid, but ethereal)
Cirele. He thus describes the closing
scene :
After a recess of ten or fifteen min
utes, the medium again went into the
‘ state,’ and wrote out—
‘ The First man is present. lie ad
dresses you from the Celestial Sphere.’
4 Is that you, Adam ?
1 Adam was my name in flesh.’
4 Will you please to favor me with
correct answers to a few simple ques
tions ?’
‘ Propound them.’
“Where was the Garden of Eden lo
cated V
4 In Kansas.’
4 Was Eve an obedient 4 helpmeet,?’
4 She was beguiled by the serpent —
after that a perfect devil in petti—l
mean fig leaves.’
4 ln what part of the world was the
tower of Babel erected ?’
‘ln White county, Indiana, near Wolf
Mound.’
4 Who were the parents of Cain’s
wife V
This question clapped the climax. —
The table at which we were seated sud
denly turned a summersault—capsized
and extinguished the lamp—upset the
medium and the maiden lady—and
amid the wreck of furniture and the
crash of glass, I made my exit through
the backdoor and rushing down a dark
alley, gained the street, minus my right
coat tail, which I left in the mouth of
the bull dog in the yard.

A letter from Rev. Charles Hib
bard, Missionary in Burmah, to his father, Jo
seph Robinson, Esq., of this city, has been handed
to us for publication, from which we make the
following extracts. —Providence Journal.
Newton, Muulmain, June 6,1855,
Dear Father:— Will you kindly say to Mr.
Davis that Mrs. Hibbard and myself, and, indeed
I might add, all who came out with us, feel very
grateful for the box of Pain Killer he gave us
when we left our native land for Burmah. ] have
used it for coughs, colds, violent internal pains,
summer complaints, burns, bruises, and for the
sting of scorpions with uniform success. The
only severe spasm of the stomach which Mrs
Hibbard has had in Burmah, was instantly re
lieved by the Pain Killer. We always keep it
where we can put our hands on it in the dark, if
: need be. Although I took Mr. Nesbit’sbox when
| he returned to America, yet it is all gone but
i three or four bottles, and that would have been
! gone long ago, had I not refused to part with it
j The Karens are beginning to learn its value, and
1 call for it, but I have to deny them, except in
doses, for we could not think of being without it.
Oxygenated Hitters.
Boston, Nov. 1, 1850.
Gentlemen : —Although averse to almost every,
thing in the form of patent medicines, I would
most cheerfully add my testimony in favor of
your invaluable remedy for dyspepsia and gene
ral debilitv.
The course you have pursued in submitting Dr.
Green’s formula to a chemist of established repu.
tat ion with the medical profession, merits the ap
proval ofscientilic men, and entitles your Oxyge
nated Bitters to the confidence of the public. I
have used the medicine for some six months past
and recommended it to many others, who will
ageee with me in saying that it surpasses all
other remedies known for the relief and cure of
the most distressing complaints arising from
weakness and any derangement of the digestive
system.

Doubters, alias . There are
two ways by which people can go astray in be
lief-first, in believing too little, and secondly, in
believing too much. The obstinate unbelievers
need not flatter themselves that there is any de
gree of wisdom shown in doubting everything,
for as fir as our observation extends, the univer
sal doubters are invariably blockheads. Read
Dr. Bliss’ advertisement of this week, in another

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 “ Halm of a Thousand
Flowers,” 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.

NO SUCH DISEASE AS “GENERAL DIS
EASE.”—Iiow often have been repeated to
interrogations such answers as “ Why, sir, (or
madam,) you are laboring under general debili
ty,”—or, “general disease seems to pervade your
entire system,”—or, “ there is a general compli
cation of disorders aillicting you, —or “disease
is so general throughout your system, a thorough
course of medical treatment must be adopted tor
its removal,” Ac. Such answers as these to the
poor treinbliug patient at once convey the idea
that every, or nearly every part of the body has
become the seat of extens.ve organic disease, and
for the removal of which a diversified and long
course of treatment must be entered upon, and
the poor patient sinks almost with despondency
at the very idea that he is so much “out of fix,
and that so much and such a variety of drugs
must be taken ere health will be restored.
To all such invalids I would say, be not dis
mayed or discouraged, for rest assured there is
no such thing us “general disease”—there is no
such state of system as “ general debility,” in the
common acceptation of the term, for* however
much the entire system may seem to be diseased,
yet upon close examination,scrutinizing and atten
tion to causes of this apparent general disorder,
it will be found that all these morbid symptoms
have for their scource and origin, someone or
more diseased points, from which, through that
chief characteristic of the living body—sympathy
—all other morbid symptoms arise.
It is very true, that one, or more, or eveu all
the organs of the body, may seem to be diseased,
but rest assured that all this diseased action orig
inates, invariably, from one or more diseased
points—to illustrate: are you troubled with a
cough, pain in the side, rapid breathing, easily
“out of breath” upon the slightest exertion?—-
Are you troubled with restlessness or starting in
sleep—your thoughts being rendered more vivid
and painful by the vigils; impaired volitino,
flushed face, pain in Ihe temples and face, hum
ming in the ears, twitching of the eyelids, occa
sional slight obscuration of vision? Do you ex
perience a “fluttering” of the heart, or palpita
tion by quickened exertion, pain iu the chest, or
darting pains over the region of the heart, Hying
pains, stitches and cramps in the ribs, between
the shoulder blades, about the hips and in the
lingers, which give you notions of rheumatism?
Have you u dry tongue, of tongue clean, red,
swollen and deeply split in all directions, gums
receding from the teeth, breath hot but not foetid,
thirst, loss of appetite, or morbid craving for
food, constipation of the bowels, or irregular us
to time and quantity, nausea and vomiting? Is
your mind irritable, with fits of depression of
several hours'duration, an impossibility to apply
the mind, imagining that this person or that
person has done you some wrong, or has a
wish to do so? Are the feet almost constant
ly cold, and the skin dry, harsh, sometimes
with an unnatural heat and sometimes highly
sensitive hi cold ? Is there a diminution of secre
tion from the kidneys, or the secretion sometimes
of one color and sometimes of another, pain over
the region of the kidneys and small of the back,
darting pains running down the thighs, cramps
in the calves of the legs and feet? Have you
pain in the right side, right shoulder, or Tic Dol
oreux of the face, with a billious, sallow complex
ion, yellowness of the eyeballs? If so, (and there
are thousands of patients who can subscribe to
every one, or a greater portion of the above symp-
all this multiform diseased action may,
and in nine hundred and ninety-nine cases in a
thousand , do depend ou a small point of inflam
mation in the digestive organs, and, perhaps, no
larger than a five cent piece. From this small
point of inflammation, small as it. is, all the mor
bific symptoms above mentioned arise, and the
removing of this cause, this small point of inflam
mation, the curing of this one small point of dis
eased action in the digestive organs, the whole
array of multiplied symptoms that you have
looked upon as a “general disease,” and which
you have oftentimes, no doubt, imagined would
sooner or later close your earthly career, will at
once disappear.
Should this meet the eye of any invalid whose
feelings and symptoms are described above, who
has any confidence in the doctrine as regards
eausesas set forth, the attention of all such is re
spectfully solicited to “BLISS’ DYSPEPTIC
REMEDY a remedy, when used closely ac
cording to directions, will not fail in restoring
diseased action of the Stomach, as described
above. No long course of treatment with this
Remedy is required to ascertain its true merits,
for it will begin to relieve the majority of cases in
a very few days. There may be cases that will
not experience this commencement of relief for
perhaps a week or ten days, and there may be
others where no appreciable alteration for the
better can be discovered under two or three
weeks, but if taken in good faith and persevered
in, it will not fail to relieve any case. 1 care not
how stubborn it may have been. Many physi
cians will probab'y read this paragragh with a
smile of incredulity, (and I canuot blame them,
in view of the thousand and one nostrums now
before the people, all of which are put forth as
“ sovereign remedies,”) —but that this Remedy
will cure any case of Dyspepsia, I am positive;
and if there is any physician who does not choose
to give it a fair test in his practice, his patient
only will be the loser. I would be glad to have
all physicians te&t it. and would they do so in
good faith, they would find that Ido not overrate
the virtue of the preparation. I am positive in
my belief, for I have used this same preparation
for years in mv practice, and am prescribing it
daily in my office practice, and know its virtues,
and most unhesitatingly say that there is no ca.se
of Dyspepsia, but that I cancure, and use nothing
but this preparation. W. W. BLISS,

r hair/]
WE call the attention of all, old and young, !
to this wonderful preparation, which turns
back to its original color grey hair—covers the
head ol the bald with a luxuriant growth—re
moves the dandruff, itching, and all cutaneous
eruptions—causes a continual How 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- i
cased iu scalp, to use it; and surely, the young
will not, us they value the flowing locks, or the
witching curls, ever be without it. Its praise is i
upon the tongue of thousands.
Waterford, Mass., July 25, 1855. j
Prof. O. J. Wood— With confidence do I re- :
commend your Hair Restorative, as being the
most efficacious article I oversaw. 1 have used
the Walphene and other preparations of the day, j
all without effect. Since using your Hair Restc- i
native, my hair aud whiskers, which \wre almost j
white, have gradually grown dark; and I now
feel confident, that a few more applications will |
restore them to their natural color. It also 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 0,1555.
Sin —ln consequence of having hair, for seve
ral years past, not only gray, but perfectly white,
1 have cut it short, and worn caps to hide it from
view; but some three months since I was induced
to use your Hair Restorative, and I must in jus
tice say, that its effects were almost miraculous;
for it has changed it gradually to almost its for
mer splendor as to color, and left it so soft and !
glossy ns to be more beautiful than it ever was,
when under the influence of 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.
Phof. Wood— Having experienced the magic
effect of your Hair Restorative, 1 drop you this
upon the subject. About two years ago, my hair
commenced falling of! and turning gray; l was
fast becoming bald. 1 met a friend who hud used
your Restorative, und spoke so highly of its vir
tues, 1 was induced to try it, although 1 had but
little faith, us l had before tried so many other
remedies. I commenced using your Restorative
in January last. A few applications fastened my
hair firmly. It began t.» nil up, grow out, and
turned bac kto its former color, (black.) At this
time it is fully restored to its original color, health ,
and appearance, and I cheerfully recommend its
use to all. J. 1). HOES.

Miford, Worcester co. Alass., Aov. 13,1854.
Piiof. O. 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 tor its restoration. See
ing your advertisement, I was induced to give
your article atrial, and, to my utter astonish
ment, I found, after a few applications, that my
hair became firmly set, ana assumed a glossy
and beautiful appearance; and by the time I hurl
used a (mart bottle, my bald head was covered
over with u young and vigorous growth of hair,
which is now from one to two inches in length
and growing fast. *
Yours, truly, HENRY GOODRICH.
New York, Oct. 2, 1854
Prof. O. 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 hall-pint bottle, and wus so much pleased
with it, that! 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 has 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 all that is
claimed for it.
MISS FEEKS, 26 1-2 Greenwich Avenue.
I have used Professor O. J. Wood’s Hair Res
torative, and have admired its wonderful efleets.
It restored my hair where it had fallen off; it
cleans the head, and renders the hair soft and
smooth—much more so than oil.
