These remarks have been suggested by the following in New the York Even ing Post: Not a single friend of Buchanan is returned to the House of Representatives from all the populous region east of New York.” Well, —what of it?

The Shadow ox the Pili.ow. —The following incident was communicated by Sir John M’Neil: “A Highland soldier had his arm so severely wcunded that it was about to be amputated, when Miss Nightingale requested the operation delayed, as she thought under careful nursing the arm might be preserved. By her unremitting care this was ac complished, and the poor soldier, on being asked what he felt towards his preserver, said that the only mode lie had of giving vent to his feelings was In kissing her shadow when it fell on his pillow as she passed through the ward on her nightly visit.” Serving Up a Rogue.—A rogue had the audacity to go into a hotel with a five dollar counterfeit bill, and ask the propri etor to change it. The landlord looked at the bill, then at the man, (who was gen teelly dressed,) and finally inquired how he wanted it changed ? “Into small bills—one’s, if you have them,” was the reply. The landlord took from out of the back part of his drawer a large pile of bills and handed over five ones to the rogue, who walked out of the house highly ela ted ; but he soon discovered to his aston ishment that the one dollar hills were ull on broken banks! ']'he man who attempted to look into the future, had the door slammed in his face. jCgr Few are aware how frequently Publishers arc compelled to insert among their advertisement?, statements which they can neither sanction nor be lieve.

Dr. Butler wasthencalled in, and for a time believed with his predecessors that it was a case of Prolapsus. He was, however, soon forced to the conclusion that his patient was suff e. ing from worms, and after much persuasior. prevailed upon her to take two doses of Dr M’Lane’s Vermifuge, prepared by Fleming Bros, of Pittsburgh. This medicine had the effect of removing from her a cousttoss number of the largest size. After she passed them, her health immediately returned.

CHERRY PECTORAL, For th© rapid Cure of rorciis, colds, hoarseness, BRONCHITIS,AYIIOOPIIVG-fOIIGH, CROIP, ASTHIIA, AND CONSUMPTION This remedy is offered to the community with the confidence we feel in an article which seldom fails to realize the happiest effects that can be desired. So wide is the tieM of its usefulness and so numerous the eases of its cures, that almost every section of the country abounds in persons, publicly known, who have been restored iroin alarming and even desperate diseases of the lungs, by its use. When once tried its su periority over every other medicine of its kind is too apparent to vntion, and where its virtues are known, ilw public no longer hesitate what antidote to employ for the distressing and dangerous affections of the pulmonary organs, which arc incident to our climate. Nothing has called louder for the earnest en quiry of med»cal men, than the alarming preva lence and futility of consumptive complaints, nor has any one class of diseases had more of their investigation and care. But as yet no adequate remedy has been provided, on which the public could depend for protection from attacks upon the respiratory organs, until the introduction of the Cherry Pectoral. This article is the product of a long, laborious, and I believe succesrdul en deavor,'to furnish the community with such a remedy. Os this last statement the American people are now themselves pi oared to judge, and I appeal with confidence to their decision, if there is any dependence to be placed in what men of every class and station certify it has done for them, if we can trust our own senses, when we see dangerous affections of the throat and lungs yield to it, it we can depend mi the assur ance or intelligent Physicians, who make it. their business to know, —in short, if there is any re liance upon anything, then is it irrefutably proven that this medicine does relieve and does cure the class of diseases it is designed for, beyond any and all others that are known to mankind. If this bo true, it cannot be too freely published, nor be too ividelv known. The afflicted should know it. A remedy that cures is priceless to them. Parents should know it. A remedy that cures is priceless to them. All should know it, for health can be priced to no one. Not only should it be circulated here, but everywhere, not only in this conutry but all countries. How faithful ly we have acted on this conviction, is shown in the fact that already this article has made the circle of the globe. The sun never sets on its limits. No continent is without it, and but few peoples. Although not in so general use in other nations as in this, it is employed by the more in telligent in almost all civilized countries. It is extensively employed in both Americas—in Lu r >pe, Asia, Africa,*Ausfral a and the far oil’islands of the sea. Life is as dear to its possessors there as here, and they grasp at a valuable remedy with even more avidity than ourselves. Unlike most preparations of its kind, it is an expensive composition of costly material. Still it is afford ed to the public at a reasonably low p-ice, and what is of vastly more importance to them, its quality is never suffered to decline from its origi nal standard of excellence. Every bottle of this medicine, now manufactured, is as good as ever has been made heretofore, or as we are capable of making. No toil or cost is spared, in main taining it in the best perfection which it is possi ble to produce. Hence the patient who procures the genuine Cherry Pectoral, can rely on hav ing as good an article as has ever been had by those who testify to its cures. By pursuing this course I have the hope of doing some good in the world, as well as the satisfaction of believing that much has been done already. Prepared by J. C.

" ’ iI. liner and <L< ss-maker is taxed give tlie aj>]»arante of rea!i.y ? forms once full, round and plump, have become shrunken, thin and bony? Hut to the letter: “Dear S’”: Were it not from conviction of your hospitable feelings towards a good number of patients who anuov you with the narration of frivolous and fancied ailments, 1 should never be emboldened to undertake so awkward a task as the consulting you in relation to myself; and if after stating my condition, which I conceive to be the result, of some diseases—what 1 know not —• you should regard it as purely of the imagination, rather than actual disease, a statementto that ef fect from you would, I am confident, prove us remedial to the fancy, as would your remedies, did actual disease exist. “ I have always enjoyed the best of heal ill, and up to Hie present time hardly have known what paiu or s'Miering was. Ido not now remember ever to have had a spell of sickness, or being in ary way indisposed, with the exception perhaps, of an occasional and but very slight headache. My appetite is good -perhaps too good. 1 digest my food without, difficulty, can walk without fa tigue. I sleep well, and can say, as l have alrea dy said that I apparently enjoy the best of health. Yet, notwithstanding the mass of testimony in favor of my being entirely exempt from disease, there is a condition of system that, I am unable to account for. I allude to the fact that for the last eighteen or twenty-four months I have entirely lost, the rotundity of torni which has always been natural tome up to Hie time relived to*. It. is now nea- two years since I first discovered that I was gradually losing flesh, and at the present time, my arms, neck, and ii. fact the whole per son. which was once full, round and linn, are now very much shrunken, attenuated and bony. Be lieving that such a condition of body could not take pmee, at any rate continue to exist torso long a period without having for its cause diseased ac tion somewhere. I applied for medical advice, hut without gaining either satisfaction or any benefit. 1 was told by one physician that 1 would regain my flesh after a while—by another that I would recruit, us soon as cold weather came, and by another that as soon as warm weather came I would be as fleshy as eve”. And now, sir, I apply to you, not only for an opinion, but for treatment, in your judgement, the case demands it,” Ac. Most certainly does the case demand treatment, and for two reasons, viz: that diseased action may he removed, and that the rotundity of form may be restored. The latter is accomplished l»v the removal ot the former, which is not only the cause in the above ease, but in others of like character. The idea that a thin, spare habit is natural to some, is entirely erroneous; for in every instance it is the result of disease, either hereditary or produced bv natural causes. Asa matter for consideration by physicians, this one lias been almost totally disregarded; and one of greater iinporfUnee can scarcely be nient ioned ; important not only from the fact that, vital organs are dis eased, and also because of that disease, beauty of form and comeliness are sacrificed. Let us now look into i he eaust. of'all this trouble. What is it ? Why this shrunken, lean and bony condition? It is faulty nutrition; the body is im perfectly nourished, from the fact that, good, rich and healthy blood is not present, and through which alone can the body be well nourished and duly developed. Why is not good, rich and heal thy blood present?—for certainly, in many cases there is no lack of appetite, or of good, substan- t r *tl and wholesome food, and plenty of it, which makes good blood. The reason is simple—for al vhough there is no want of appetite or good food, and in abundance, yet the blood is not taken up and carried into the circulation, or at any rate, but a small por!.<on of it—and why? Because of the congested state, of the digest'.ire organs. This is the trouble—the system is in that pr< cisc same state that it would be were it in u half starved condition. And now, how is it that a congested state of the digestive organs prevents the fond from being carried into the circulation and con verted into good blood. Those who have read my advertisements of last week are fully acquaint ed', I think with the wav that the food is carried into the circulation in the form of chile, and con verted into blood, a id it now only remains for me to give the reason why it is not, in the condition under consideration, carried there and converted into good blood. The mucus membrane which lines the stomach continues into the bowels and lines them also: it is one continuous membrane. I have already described how, in the upper bow els, their sides are pierced with an innumerable number of little orifices, which are mouths of lit tle vessels or tubes, whose office if is to absorb or take up the food after it is formed into chile and* pass it along into a large vein, and 011 through this vein is chile carried to the heart from whence it is propelled to the lungs, and there by its com ing in contact with atmosphere, is converted in to blood and now ready for purposes of nutrition or nourishing the body. From the Jungs, it is (now being made into good blood) brought hack to the heart again through large veins, and from the heart sent throughout the entire eystem through the arteries. Now the mucus membrane which lines the stomach and the bowels, also dips into these little mouths of the vessels above spoken of, and also lines them. And I think now it can be easily seen that when the digestive organs are in a con gested and inflamed condition, that there is more or less of a swollen state of that mucus membrane and inconsequence of the swollen state of the membrane, the mouth of these vessels, from their being so very minute, would he entirely closed up, which would of course prevent the taking of the chile and of its being carried into the circula tion, and in consequence of its not being taken up by these vessels it is passed on through the bowels and expelled, and without the system re ceiving any benefit of ita nourishing properties. It is plain, then, from the foregoing, that our Reined.al measure must be directed to tbe diges tive organs, for it is by the congestion of these that this shrunken, attenuated and bony condi tion is brought about. What shall be our reme dies V Those that will remove the congested state and restore them to a healthy condition. In ad vance of all other remedial means is the using of BLISS’ DYSPEPTIC REMEDY, and the follow ing out of all the directions accompanying it, and by so doing and persevering in the taking of the remedy, not only every vestage of the disease will hi removed, but a gradual and steady improving in flesh and rotundity of form will be the result. It is the experience of every one, and it. has of ten been made the subject of remark by those who have taken the Remedy for some time to gain iu flesh ; and if I have been understood above it will now be seen it does it, viz : by removing the con gested state of the digestive organs, which pre vents the manufacture of good, healthy blood and conseouentlv proper nourishment of the body. \V.
