flails From the New York E.enlng Post. The Water Balloon, or New Saver of Life and Treasure from Sinking Ships. Jtfeisrt. Editon: A poor ship carpenter was leaving bis work, near the close of the (In y, when be observed that a sudden change cf the wind was carrying a balloon directly over the water. The man in the car perceived his danger, and began to descend by letting oil gas, but be was carried a long ways out before he could toucb the water; and then, to check his onward motion until the boats could over take him, ho alternately threw out ballast and let off gas. Now aud then the car rose above the water, but most of the time it hung and dragged among the waves until the boat arrived. Tbe fears of the carpenter, who bail once been a sailor, and moro than once had taken to thu long boat, gradually subsided into an ingenious speculation on what be had soen. ‘‘Here,” said he to himself, “is an air balloon, floating and carrying a car, because its bulk is lighter than the air it displaces ; why not have a water balloon, which will float in tbe water and cr>rry a load within it, because its bulk will be lighter than tbe bulk of water it will displace? The water bal loon can be made of thin iron, in the same egg shape as the air balloon, and the lower end can be made so long and heavy that the body will remain upwright at (bo surface, iu the roughest weather. Let tbe lower half bo filled with provisions and treasuros, and a row of people be seated around in the upper half with their hatches screwed down on the in Bide, and a long pipo out at tho top for air, and they may float safoly for months, until they are discovered by some passing ship.” The moon was shining when the tri umphant reverie of the inventor was dis turbed by tho practical question, who will pay for making this water balloon? Tbe wages he had squandered would do it, but they could not bo applied in that way. He calculated the chances of en listing one or another of the rich men in the town, and was growing humble under their fancied denials, when ho started to bis feet and walked directly to the house of an old messmate, who had long been in tho way of frequenting tho savings bank. Tho man of savings listened cautiously, bat still listened to tho story of tho half inspired caponier. At last the flames caught. The miser suggested improve ments, which tho invonlor eagerly adopt ed. It now belonged to both. And be fore they slept they were partners in the water balloon and the bank book. The invention mid the deposits wore combined. Tho water balloon was launch ed by the two merchants in thoir own harbor, and Neptune was invited, in all torts of ways, to try liis strength upon it. They have now brought it into our wa ters, and placed it near tho great bath at the Battery. There it begins to get at tention. Ono old sea captain says it is tbe veritable egg shell in which the witch sailed aoross the sea, and he declares his readiness to try it as soon as tho winds please to get up a gale. Steamboat pro prietors are beginning to chaffer for it.— The reporters for the press aro hanging about it. It looks very much liko a suc cess. The view taken of this balloon by sea men is manifested by their readiness to enter it any time, and be rolled from the dcok of a steamer into tho water, while the wind was blowing its best. The proprietors claim that a supply of the balloons would have saved every soul on board of the Arctic; would have saved all the people and treasure of the Ccutral America; would tiavo told the fato of the President, the Pacific, tho Atlantic and tho City of Glasgow. They claim that no moro troasuro need be lost on its way from California. And they claim that any plausible show in favur of this claim entitles them to the atteniioD of express and insurance compa nies at the great centre of commerce. They respectfully invito Mr. Francis and Mr. Raymond to examine their work ; and, if satisfied of its value, to adopt it as a hybrid, if not as anew variety, in tbe family of life-boats.

CHAFFIN A JOHNSON DYSPEPSIA, AS shown by the •tatement of the Board of Health of New York, caused the death of 76 persons out of 611 deaths in one week, and 161 deaths by consumption, induced by Dyspepsia. Ah it is a well attested fact that Dyspepsia is the origin of the ■offering of a large portion of those j who die of consumption, it become# the duty of | every one to ue such precautions against and i remedies for Dyspepsia as scieuce and experience have pieced before them, and which have proved | to bo efficacious; of this character is Dr. Wujjam’s i Anti-Dyhpki*tic Elixir, in corroboration of which j read the following testimonials: Testimony of Mr. Michael Dunn, Superintend- j ent of the Philadelphia Exchange, corroborative i of the efficacy of William’s A.nti-Dyhfki'TlC Elixir : { Philadelphia, March 16,1863. Dr. James Williams—For several yours past I j have been liable to attacks of Dyspepsia; but ucverhavo 1 been more distressingly afflicted with its symptoms than within tho last few weeks. Indigestion, nervous irritability, despondency, a ] sense of weight in tho stomach, and severe pains in the left side, rendered me, for the time being, truly wretched. Fortunately, I was rocommended by a friend to try your Elixir. 1 did so, and in less than two weeks indigestion ceased ; pain and nervous depression left me, and appetite, With mental and bodily health, were fully restored. To me the cure seemed almost miraculous, and my object in writing to you is—a hope that other per sons suffering the miseries of Dyspepsia will avail themselves of your efficient remedy. I am, dear sir, yours truly, MICHAEL DUNN. AN INVALUABLE REMEDY FOR DYSPEPSIA. Read tbe testimony of tho wife of Mr. John Stiles, on the Frankford lload, near the first toll gate: Frankford Road, Oct. 25, 1849. Dr. James Williams —Having recently under stood that it is your intention to resume the pre paring of your Anti-Dyspeptic Elixir, and being anxious that others may be benefitted by its use as 1 have been, I herewith send you, for publica tion, if you think i roper, a statement of the effec tual cure produced on me by it. For a number of years I have been suffering to such an extent, that 1 became so much debilita ted, and the digestive powers so much destroyed, that it was with difficulty I could take and retain sufficient nourishment to support life. Neither myself nor my friends were aware that rny suffer ing proceeded from indigestion; in the year 1839 my attention whh directed by my husband to your advertisement, at that time published in some of the city papers, explaining tho causes and symp toms of dyspepsia, and confidently offering a remedy 1 immediately procured aud used your medicine with tho most signal success; from a state of debility, languor ami nervousness, and comploto loss of the power of digestion, so great that I could take at first only five drops of the Elixir at a dose, I was in a few days much re lieved, and by continuing it a short time I have been restored to health, strength and vigor, which I still retain. I take groat pleasure, sir, in mak ing known the efficacy of your Anti Dyspeptic Elixir, and sincerely hope it may bo tlie means of inducing others to go and be benefited liko myself.

EUREKA OIL, THE GREATEST DISCOVERT OF THE AGE. f | A Hid mixture, composed of some dozen oils aud X extracts, is the xesuit of many years’experi ments made by a medical man, a dealer iu slaves, in efforts to meet and successfully combat the dif ferent ills and aches those under his care were subject to from the various exposures in travelling aud camp life. It has been found from experience to possess restorative and healing virtues equal led by no other mixture or compound yet discov ered, for the following afflictions : Sores or Eruptions of the rikin, Ulcerated Sore.i on tho legs or any part of the body, Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Head Ache, Tooth Ache, Bone Feltons, : Tetters, Pains, Sore Throat, Swollen Glands, Bore or Weak Eyes in man or beast, Ear Ache, Cramp or Pain iu the Stomach, Colic, Weak Back, Spinal Affections, Sore Breasts, Sore or Cracked Nipples, Fever Sores, Scald Head, Fresh Cuts and Bruises, all Pains in the Limbs aud Joints, Spraius and Strains, Swollen Feet and Ancles, Burns, Stricture or Disease of the Neck of the Bladder, and is being used on CANCERS w’ith favorable prospects of success. We claim no magic for the workings of this great soother and successful competitors in the healing art, of all the remedies which have been put for* ward for public favor. If the first application does not give relief, try lhe second, third r fourth, and we will guarantee the sufferer shall not be disap pointed. Where it has been introduced it has su perceded DeGrath’s and all other remedies. We challenge the world for the production of its equal in allaying pain, or in the healing art.

Jan. 29,’58-1 y THE LIVER USTVIGORATOR. PREPARED BY DR SANFORD, Compounded entirely from Gums, iS one of the best Purgatives and Liver Medicines now before the public that acts as a Cathartic easier, milder, and more effectual than any othei medicine known. It is not only a Cathartic, but a Liver remedy, acting first on the Liver to eject its morbid matter, then on the stomach and bowels to carry off that matter, lhus accomplishing two pur poses effectually, without any of the panful feel ings experienced in the operation of most Cathar tics. It strengthens the system at the same time that it purges it; and when taken daily in moder ate doses, wil strengthen and build it up with unusual rapidity. The Liver is one of 7a the principal regula tors ol tho human to- dj ; and when it per forms its functions well, the powers art fully developed. The stomach is a*most en tireiy dependent on r the healthy action oi the Liver for tho per- formance of its func tions; when the slum *7 ach is* at fault, tht bowels are at fault, and the whole system suffers in consequence of one organ—tht Liver —having ceased m to do its duty. Foi tlie diseases of that J organ, one of the pro prietors has made it /“\ his study, in a practict of more than twenty years, to find Bonn remedy wherewith to counteract the man} derangements to W which it is liable. To prove that this remedy is at last found, any person troubled j, with Liver Com plaint, in any of its H forms, has but to try a oottie, aud conviction is certain. These Gums remove u all morbid or bad mat ter from the system, supplying in theii place a healthy flow oi (JJ bile, invigorating tin Jtomacb, causing food to digest well, puri lying the blood giving tone and health to the whole machine I—j iy, removing the causi of the disease—effect L mg a radical cure. Bilious attacks are are cured, and, vvhai is better, prevented, H by the occasional usi I ot the Liver Invigo rator. One dose after eating J is sufficient to relievt the stomach and pre vent the food from rising and souring. ‘ Only one dose taken j, before retiring, pre vents Nightmare. m Only one dose taken at night, loosens tin bowels gently, and cures Costiveness. One dose taken after m each meal will cun Dyspepsia. C* One dose of two tea spoonfuls will al ways relieve Sick j. Headache. One bottle taken for female obstruction re moves the cause of the j, disease, and makes a perfect cure. Only one doseimme- diately relieves Cliol to, wh.le One dose, often re- J peated, ia a sure cur for Cholera Morbus, and a preventive o> Cholera. ■ Only one bottle is needed to throw out ot the system the effects H of medicine after t long sickness. One bottle taken for Jaundice removes -ill sallowuess or un- natural color from th skin. One dose taken a /"v short time before eat mg gives vigor to the appetite, aud make food digest well. One duso oiten re- |_J peated, cures Chroni* Diarrhoea in its worst forms, while Surnine. tnd Bowel complaints yield almost to th first dose. ! i One or two doses cures attacks causet oy Worms in Clm r dren; there is no surei <afer, or speedier rem- edy in the world, as i never fails. | lJ A few bottles cures Dropsy, by exciting the absorbents. - We take pleasure in Q recommending thir mediciee as a proven- five for Fever ant tguc, Chill Fov el, aud all Fevers of i Bilious Type. Itoper- m ates with certaint} nd thousam sare wil C” ling to testify to it wonderful virtues. t All who used it are giving their unanimous tes timony in its favor. Mix water in the mouth with tho Invigora tor, and swallow both together. THE LIVER IN VIGOR ATOR Is a Scientific Medical Discovery, aud is daily work mg cures almost oo great for belief. It cures as i uy magic, even tho fiist dose giving benefit, an seldom more than one bottle is required to cur my kind of Liver Complaiut, from the worst Jaun lice or Dyspepsia to a common Headache, all o> which are the result of a DISEASED LIVER.
