From the Journal of Commerce. Religious Criticism. Mkssbs. Editors :—The N. Y. Evan gelist, in its issue for the present week, closes an editorial review of Mrs. Beech er Stowe’s new Anti-Slavery novel, ‘Dred,’ with the following remarkable criticism: “ The fault we find of the work is, not to much that a large section of the Church of Christ is caricatured and misrepresented by a singular perver sios of facts, as that Art has been sacrificed to passion, and that the pre rogative of the poet has been made secondary to the zeal of the partisan.”— That a minister of the gospel could de liberately assert that a “ caricature” of the church of his master based upon absolute falsehood (and that, too, a church of his own name, the Presbyte rian,) is less reprehensible than a breach of the requirements of Art (/) is signifi cant of the effect of the doctrines of our modern reformers, even upon our reli gious teachers. We would commend to aimhnd to the authoress who sets her self up as the “ accuser of her brethren,” the solemn words of Him who is to be Judge: “Whoso shall offeud one of these little ones who believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he was drowned in the depth of the sea. Death of Col. Benj. S. Jordan.— Col. Benj. S.

Rochester, Oct. 19,1852. Messrs. Fleming Bros. —GentlemenHaving experienced the beneficial effects of Dr. M’Lane’s Celebrated Liver Pills, prepared by yon, I take great pleasure in recommending them to the pub lic. I feel warranted in saying that they are a certain cure for live? complaints ami all billions diseases, no matter how difficult or longstanding. I myself was afflicted with this dreadful disease for over two years, and oh ! how thankful I am that I heard of these Pills. I purchased of one your agents three boxes, and before I had finish. • i the third box, was completely cured. I verily believe, but for Dr. M’Lane’s Liver Pills, I should have now been in my grave; but as it is, I am now enjoying the best of health, and stand a liv ing witness of the efficiency of Dr. M’Lane’s Liver Pills. Besides recovering my health, I consider that I have saved iu pocket some two or three hundred dollars physician’s fees. This testimony I give you with the greatest pleasure, and hope it may do something towards making these invuluable Pills known to all who are suffering with liver complaint.

Charles Hib bard, Missionary in Burmab, to bis father, Jo seph Robinson, Esq., of this city, has been banded to us for publication, from which wc make the following extracts.— Providence Journal. Nkwton, Maulmaio, June 6,1555, Dkar 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 rerr grateful for the box of Pain Killer he gave us when we left our native land for Burmab. I 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 Burmab, 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’s box when he returned to America, yet it is all gone but three or four bottles, and that would have been gone long ago, had I not refused to part with it. The Karens are beginning to learn its value, and call for it, but I have to deny them, except in doses, for we could not thiuk of being without it. 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.'

QUESTIONS THAT DYSPEPTICS ASK. i “ W hat shall I eat ?” “ How much in quantity or weight ought I to eat at a meal?” ' “Shall I commence a rigid course of Diet iug?” “Shall I leave oft’eating meat?” “Must I stop drinking coffee?” ARE questions being propounded to me daily by letter, from invalids using, or about to use, “BLISS’ DYSPEPTIC REMEDY.” For the benefit of all whom it may concern, I will an swer those questions. To the first question, I answer—Eat anything that is good, wholesome, substantial and uourisming. To the second ques sion, I answer—Eat as much as you are accus tomed to eat, or whatever would De considered a sufficiency by the geuemlity of healthy people.— To the third question, I answer—No, for if you do, you never will get well. No dyspeptic, or any other person laboring under chrome disease, ever got rid of his disease, or ever will, by starv ing himself. To question four, J answer—No; for meat is a most important article of diet to the invalid dyspeptic. To question five, I answer— No; if you are accustomed to drinking it; the question as to whether tea and coffee are injuri ous, is all moonshine. Such advice as the above to a dyspeptic and to persons laboring under chronic diseases general ly, will no doubt be read and regarded by a great many with much surprise and 1 am greatly mistaken if the above is not pointed at by many sa gacious and wise beads as proofs either that I know nothing of the diseases which I pretend to treat, or that it is some new phase in the humbug line.— But hold on a bit, all you that think so—throw the old fogy aside for a moment, and let us see about this matter. We won’t stop to inquire how you dime by your dyspepsia, but we will in quire—why is it that it sticks to you, tormenting you so that you are of no manner of uccouut?— Simply because the powers of the system are unable to throw off the disease—becuuse the sys tem has, from some reason, become too much en feebled—too much reduced to vital force —too much in a weakened state; or that the extent, severity or stronghold that the disease has got is too great for the -vis melacatrix naturve —the pow ers of the system to remove. This is the reason, and the only reason, that you are uot well. Well, how are >ou to be cured ? By pursuing such a course of treatment as shall help out the vis mcl acatvix natures , the powers of the system—by in stituting a treatment that will bind up, strength en, give tone and vigor, and lend a helping baud to the entire general system, by which she may be enabled to throw off this disease, us, for in stance, regular out of door exercise, cold bathing, traveling, change of scene, Ac., and the taking of medicinal agents. Why is medicine taken ? Simply to assist nature to throw off' disease, and nothing else. Medicine has nut one particle of influence on disease—not oue particle. Medicine don’t cure disease; it only assists nature to throw it off. Now comes the question; while we are doing everything in our power to bind up nnd strengthen the general powers of the system, that she may be enabled to throw oft’ this disease, shall we at the same time deny her her natural stimulus—her natural strengthener! Shall we withhold that by which she is nourished and supported, viz: food, good, wholesome and sub stantial food? By no means; for if we do, we are bringiug about the very same state of sys tem that we ure trying to get rid of; by with holding food we reduce and weaken the system. The taking of good and substantial food is as es sential as unv p rti >n of the treatment that we insti tute ; in fact, very much more so, for the food is the natural strengthener of the powers of the system, and from it good, rich and healthy blood is made. All this we grant, says my sagacious friend, but, continues lie, wlmt’s the use of a person eat ing if his stomach is in an unfit state to : eceivc and digest that food and prepare it for the system ; and besides, says he, there are hundreds and thousands that cannot take much food upon the stomach in consequence of the great distress it causes. Now this is a very important question, and a very true remark. There would be but little use in taking this good, wholesome and sub stantial food unless the stomach could receive and digest the food, and without pain, recourse must be had to medicinal agents. By these, if a judicious choice is made among the remedial agents, the stomach may be enabled to perform its functions—may be enabled to receive and di gest the food, and, too, without pain or distress. Now comes the question—what remedial agent shall we use? Shall we use calomel? No; be cause in its action it stimulates thcjuucus mem brane of the stomach and bowels, which are al ready in an over-excited and inflamed state.— Shall we use iron or any of its kindred prepara tions! No; for the same reason. They would not only stimulate the already over-excited mu cus membrane of the stomach, but render it still further unable to prepare those preparations for their admission into the system, so li their pres ence in the stomach did no harm, they could not possibly do any good, from the fact of their not being taken into the circulation. Shall we use any of the many “ specifics” that are now-a-days placed before the people as “ sov erign remedies?'’ No; for nine tenths of them are prepared with alcohol, or some other equally stimulating liquid, and nothing is or can be more ■injurious or hurtful to an in famed mucus mem brane of the stomach, than alcohol or any of its preparations. What.remedial agent shah we use,..then? This is a question that I asked for years. I tried over and over again all the remedies and prescriptions found in the books, but all to little or no purpose, until, at last, aided by experiments almost with out number, I compounded a remedy which, al though very simple, yet I found always most ef fectual when my directions were complied with. This preparation I have used in cases of every description of Dyspepsia, and other diseases hav ing their origin hi disease of the stomach, for the last ten years in mv private practice, and am now prescribing it daily, by letter, to patients in every section of the United States, who have placed their case under ir.y especial care and treatment. My legitimate business is the treat ment and prescribing by letter for chronic dis ease generally; and nine-tenths of the cases I prescribe for are either Dyspepsia or some other disease having its origin in disease of the stom ach. [And, bv the by, I will here take occasion to drop the hint that some of my friends forget that I fay no claim to be a philanthropist, or that I “grind for toll.” lam ready nnd willing, and do, as expeditiously as possible, answer all their letters, and it gives me pleasure to do so, but when it will take from one to two, three and four hours to answer and advise them, I always like to see the “five”—it helps out amazingly—es pecially when their case happens not to be Dys pepsia.] I have now placed this remedy before the public as one that may be relied upon, and I do so without anv hesitation, doubt or distrust in its virtues of ability to cure, providing the in structions are followed out. In conclusion, I will take occasion to remark, that there are hundreds and thousands through out the United States that are suffering from the disease, Dyspepsia, and are taking this, that and the other preparation, and at the same time liv ing on bran and water, and other such like slops, in the hope of being relieved of their disease; but they are all doomed to disappointment, for it is beyond question, that in order to become rid of that disease, a good and wholesome diet must be made use of, and suitable remedies taken at the same time, to enable the stomach to digest ths food, and fit it for the circulation. Such a reme dy is “ BUSS’ DYSPEPTIC REMEDY,” which, if taken and persevered in, and all the directions followed out, will not fail to restore the patient to health; and here I would remark, that no dis appointment may be experienced, that its virtues are not in all cases discernible in the taking of one package, and perhaps in some few extreme cases, the taking of two packages. A steady and persevering taking of the REMEDY is recom mended, and rest assured it will, sooner or later, be discovered that it does possess virtues almost inestimable. W. W.

ALL HAILT!T~ SOMETHING FOR THE MILLION!! WK call the attention of all, old and young, to this wonderful preparation, which turns back lo its original color grey hair—covers the bead of the bald with a luxuriant growth—re moves the dandruff, 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 ago, in all its beauty. We call, then, upon the bald, the grav, or dis eased in 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 upoti the tongue of thousands. Waterford, JI/a*?., July 25, 1855. 1 Prop. O. J. Wood—With confidence do I re commend your Hair Restorative, as being the most efficacious article I ever saw. I have used the Walphene and other preparations of the day, all without effect. Since using your Hair Resto- , rative, my hair and whiskers, which wire utmost.: white, have gradually grown dark; and I now feel confident, that a few more applications will j restore them to their natural color. It also has j relieved me of all dandruff and unpleasant itch ing, so common among persons who perspire free ly J. G. KILBY. North East Pennsylvania , March 9,1855. Sir—ln consequence of having hair, for seve ral years past, not only gray, hut perfectly white, I have cut it short, and worn caps to hide it from view; but some three monthasince I 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, 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 ear nestly, therefore, recommend it to every lady as decidedly the best preparation for toilet use, of anything in the world. BETSY SMITH. Prop. Wood—Having experienced the magic effect of your llair Restorative, 1 drop you this upon the subject. About two years ago, my hair commenced falling off and turning gray; I was fast becoming bald. I met a friend who had used your Restorative, and spoke so highly of its vir tues, I was induced to try it, although I had but little faith, as 1 hud before tried so many other remedies. I commenced using your Restorative in January last. A few applications fastened my hail* firmly. It began to fill up, grow out, and turned back to its former color, ( black.) At this time it is fully restored to its original color, health and appearance, aud I cheerfully recommend its use to all. J. D. HOES. Chicago, 111., May 1, 1854. Milford, Worcester co. Mites., Nov. 13,1854. Prof. 0. J. Wood—Dear Sir: I take pleasure in hearing voluntary testimony to the magic ef fects of your wonderful Hair Restorative. As far back as 1886, 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 wiln a 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, 1654 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! 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’ und 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 nil that is claimed for it. MISS FEEKS, 26 1-2 Greenwich Avenue, I have used I'rofcssor O. J. Wood’s Hair Res torative, and have admired its wonderful effects. 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. MARY A.
