Dublin Police. “A MODERN OTHELLO." ] The board-room of this office, on Saturday last, was converted into an arena tor the display of the most comic histrionic exhibition it has been our lot to witness. A y oung man, apparently about 25 years of age, whose appearance excited the surprise and wunder of the bystanders, was ushereu into the board room by a pair of constables. His face was partly blackened, his head was shrouded in a dirtv shawl, evideniiy intended as a subslitute for a turban —a pair of inexpressibles a world too wide tor his shrunk shanks, hung loosely about his at tenuated limbs ; and his upper garment consisted of an old cashmere cloak, through the upper apper mres of which were thrust a pair of filthy looking arms and hands, decorated at the wrist whh brassi bracelets; his feet were encased in plaid shoes,' which cumpli ted the tout ensemble ol thin rather curious-looking being. On entering the room he gave a salaam lo the M gistrate according to the j Moorish fashion, and then stood ar the bar with hisj head projecting forward, and his chin resting on his breast. He was followed by two persons of differ ent appearance. The elder was an o'd naan, appa rently about 70 years of age, and the younger was an interesting-looking girl of 18. The old man ap peared as complainant against the odd looking por fionage. t appeared frum his statement I hat thei defendant was a member of an itinerant corps of players who were,n the habit of attend,ng fairs and markets in several towns in the province In the course ol his peregnnaiions he l ec .me acqaini ed with the pretty young girl aforesaid, and in Inced her to to lake him “ lor better for worse.” The la ther followed them to Dublin, and,alter a great deal of trouble, suci eded in discovering iheir domicile in one of the most wretched of our suburbs Through the instrumentality of the fair one the hus band and sire became friends, and livid on g«od; » terms up to the preceding nig it. A curious incident, disturbed the faintly peace, and made a wreck of, all their happiness. The defendant was in the hab-! it of giving instructions to his wife in ihe histrionic art; but unluckily, while rehearsing Olbello, his enthusiasm in l lie murder scene carried him 100 far, and he would really and hma fide have smothered poor Dssdamona if her cries had not brought her father to her assistance, who rescued her from the l ands of the angry Moor. The complainant also stated I bit the prisoner’s name was Gaffney, but he became quite outrageous if he were called by thal name, as he said his proper name was Garrick. In addition to this statement, the young woman pro tested to the Magistrate that her husband was very and that ho was frequently laiking about a “ green-eyed monster” that seemed to give him a great deal of trouble. Magistrate— A hat have you to say to this charge, Air Gaffney, or Garrick ? Defendant—Yes, you’re right; Garrick is my name, 1 Most potent, grave and reverend seignor, My very noble and approved good master, I hat I have ta’cn away this good man’s daughter Is true—true I have married her ; The very head and front of in/ offending Hath this extent —no more !*’ Magistrate—vVhat have I to do with this non sense ? I efendant—You’ll see anon— “ Rude ara I in speech.” (A rather rude intimation from a constable to an swer his worship p-operly stopped the declaimer lor a few minutes.) He then proceeded— “ And little accustomed T’o the sat ph-ase of peace”— Magistrate—‘-’o it appears, you brute, or you would not attempt to smother your wife (Laughter. Defendant— “For since those arras of mine— Hath seven years’ pith, ITU now some nine moons wasted.” Magistrate—l fear your ill conduct will oblige me to pul handcuffs on them. Defendant— “l hey have used their dearest aetion In the tented field.” Magistrate—They will use their action in future in breaking stories in the bridewell —(Laughter. Defendant— “ Little can I grace my story By speaking of myself.” Magistrate—lndeed, I’m s,ire of that, for you ap pear to be a most disgraceful vagabond.—( Laugh ter.) Defendant (with a peculiar expr. ssive look to wards his wife), “Oil, T>esdainona, Desdamona !”—(Laughter ) Complainant—A edo not wish to punish him’ your U orship, if he promises to behave himself in future. Defendant (starting)—Has proud Pi mil's heart relented ? Is he honest ?—(Loud laughter.) Magistrate— Ton my word, I think he is a more honest man than you are. I must send you to pri son. Defendant—To a dungeon ! I care not— “ I had rather l the veriest toad That leids upon the vapours of a dungeon, Than keep a corner m the thing 1 love For other’s use.” Magistrate—Oh ! the vile and sinful cerature ; remove him. Defendant— “ Then Dear this from me to the senate, That when at Alepno I met a turban’d Turk, And abused a Venetian, And traduced the s nate, I seized by the throat” The defendant was prevented from further pro ceeding by the rude grasd of a constable, who “seiz ed him by the throat,” and removed him from the office. Very Modest—The Richmond Whig asserts that the Vice President has been franking biogra phical sketches of himself and Mr. Van Buren. ‘Mister,’ said a Johnny Raw from New Jersey, who lately visited the Argus office, ‘don't folks pay for iheir paper without dunnen? 1 guess if I was a printer, I’d tickle’em with an oat straw. Why ray father takes the paper, and I’ve heard him tell another, he’d jest as lief cheat the parson as the printer. a CARRIAGES. HULBERT & ROLL, at the old stand formerly occupied by Maj.

Citizens of North and South America, To Louis Offon Goelicke, M. D., of Germany, [Europe,] belongs the imperishable honor of adding anew and precious doctrine to the science of medi cine —a doctrine which,though vehemently opposed by many of the faculty, (of which he is a valuable member,) he proves to be as well founded in truth as any doctrine of Holy Writ —a doctrine, upon the verity of which are suspended the lives of millions of our race, and which he boldly challenges his op posers to refute, viz : Consumption.is a disease al ways occasioned by a disordered state of Vis Vitas (or Life Principle) of the human body; (ff often secretly lurking in the system for years before there is the least complaint of the Lungs —and which may be as certainly, though not so quickly, cured, as a common cold or a simple headache. An invaluably precious doctrine this, as it imparts an important lesson to the apparently healthy of both sexes, teaching them that this insidious foe may be an unobserved inmate of their “ clayey houses” even while they imagine themselves secure from ts attacks, teaching them tha Uhe great secret inthe art of preserving health is to pluck out the disease when in the blade, and not wait till the full grown ear. This illustrious benefactor of man is also entitled to youi unfeigned gratitude, and the gratitude of a world, for the invention of his matchless Sanative, —whose healing fiat may justly claim for it such a title, since it has so signally triumphed over our great common enemy, iff* Consumption, both in the first and last stages, —a medicine which has thoroughly filled the vacuum in the Materia Mediea, an,j thereby proved itself the fff Conqueror of Phy sic tans. FT) —a medicine, for which all mankind will have abundant cause to bless the beneficent hand of a kind Providence, —a medicine whose i wondrous virtues have been so glowingly pourtray ed even by s }me of our clergy, in their pastoral visits to tee sick chamber ; by which means they often become the happy instruments of changing de sponding into hope, sickness into health, and sad of friends into joyfulness QQ3 Q Q GOELICKE'S MATCHLESS SANATIVE, A medicine of more value to man than the vast mines of Austria, or even the united treasures of our globe, —a medicine, which ij obtained equally from the vegatable, animal and mineral kingdoms, and thus possesses a threefold power,—a medicine, which, though designed as a remedy for consump tion solely, is possessed of a mysterious influence over many diseases of the human system,—a medi cine, which begins to be valued by physicians, who are daily witnessing its astonishing cures ot many whom they had resigned to the grasp of the Insa tiable Grave. DOSE of the Sanative, for adults, one drop; for children, a half-drop; and for infants, a quarter j drop ; the directions explaining the manner of ta- | king a half or a quarter drop. Price— Three and one-third rix dollars'* ($2,50) p r half ounce. German coin, value 75 cents. §eQ 3 Q A certificate from three members of the Medical Profession in Germany, in Europe. We, the undersigned, practitioners of medicine in Germany, are well aware that, by our course, we may forfeit the friendship of some of the facul ty, but not of its benevolent members, who are un influenced by selfish motives. 1 hough we shall • refrain from an expression of our opinion, either of the soundness or unsoundness of Dr. Goelick’s new doctrine, we are happy to say that we deem his Sanative too valuable not to be generally known —for what our eyes behold and our ears hear, we must believe. We nereby state, that when Dr. Louis Offen i Goelick first came before the German public, as the pretended discoverer of a new doctrine and a new medicine, we held him in the highest con tempt, believing and openly pronouncing him to be a base impostor and the prince of quacks. But, on hearing so much said about the Sanative, against it and for it, we were induced, from motives of curi osity merely, to make trial of its reputed virtues upon a number of our most hopeless patients; and we now deem it our bounden duty (even at the expense of self-interest) publicly to acknowledge its efficacy in curing not only consumption, but other fearful maladies, which we have heretofore believed to be incurable. Our contempt for the discoverer of this medicine was at once swallowed yp ja our utter astonishment at these unexpected results; and, as amends for our abuse of him, we do frankly confess to the world, that we beliere him a philanthropist, who does honor to the profes sion, and to our country, which gave him birth. The recent adoption of this medicine into some of our European hospitals, is a sufficient guaranty that it performs all promises. It needed not our estimony,for wherever it is used it is its own best wines? HERMAN ETMULLER, m. d. WALTER VAN GAULT, m. d. ADOLPHUS WERNER, m. d. Germany, December 10, ISS6. 666 6 6 THE MATCHLESS SANATIVE.—By an article in our paper to-day, it will be seen that this medi cine has lost none of its virtues by crossing the At lantic —for it appears to be working similar cures in America to those which have astonished Europe. —Boston Morning Post. nrY’ For sale by BENJAMIN HALL, Agent, at the Post-Office. ec DUPONT’S POWDER.—SOO Kegs H.
