[Translated from the German.]
LOUIS OFFON GOELICRE,
of Germany,
The Greatest of Human Bene facto b;r.
Cit izens of North, and South America,
To Louis Offon Goelicke, M. d., of Germany,
fEuiope,, belongs the impeusliable huntu - ol adding
anew and preciou- doctiine to the Science ol.medi
cine —a doctrine which, though vehement!., cj-posed
by many of tue faculty, ;of which he is a valuable
member,) he pioves to be as well tomtded inUruth
as any doctiine of Holy Writ —a doctrine, upen the
verily of w.uch are suspended the lives of millions
of our race, and which he boldly cha lenges his op
posers to refute, viz : Const*nption is a disease al
ways occasioned by a disordered stale of Vis V it«e
(or Life Principle) of the human body : Jj-’often
secretly lurking m tue system for years before
there is toe least complaint of the Lungs 1 —and
which may he as certainly, though not so quickly,
cumd, as a common co dor a simple headache. An
in valuably precious doctrine tins, as imparts an
important itsson to the apparently healthy ot both
sexes, teaching them that tins insidious foe may
be an unobserved inmate ol their “ clayey houses”
even while they imagine themselves secure from
its attacks, teaching tnem that the great secret inthe
art of -preserving health is to pluck out the disease
wiien in the blade, and not wait till the full prawn
ear.
This illustrious benefactor of man is also en titled
to youi unfeigned gratitude, and the gratitude of a
world, for the invention of his matchless Sanative,
—whose healing hat may justly claim for it si|Ch a
title, since it has so signally triumphed over* our
grent common enemy , Consumption, bol«i in
the first and last stages',—?. medicine which lias
thoroughly filled the v acuum in the Materia Mojica,
anj thereby proved itself the Conque: or of Phy
sic tans ./~7.3—a medicine, foi which all mankind
will have abundant cause to bless the beneficent
hand of a kind Providence, —a medicine n Ivose
wondrous virtues have been so glowingly poun.ay
ed even by s ime of our clergy, in their pastoral
visits to tea sick chamber ; by' which means tney
often become the happy instruments of changing de
sponding into hope, sickness into health, and ;;ad
of friends into joyfulness

GOELICKE'S MATCHLESS SANATIVE,
A medicine of more value to man than the vast
mines of Austria, or even the united treasures; ot
our globe, —a medicine, which is obtained equally
from the vegatable, animal and mineral kingdoms,
and thus possesses a tnree fold power,—a medicine,
w.iich, though designed as a remedy for consump
tion solely, is possessed of a mysterious influence
over many diseases of the human system, —a m ,*di
cine, which begins to be vamed hy physicians, who
are daily witnessing it* astonishing cures o: many
whom they had icsigned to the grasp of the Ir sa
tiable Grave.
DOSE of the Sanative, for adults, one drop; fr
children, a half-drop; and for infants, a quarter
drop; the directions explaining the manner of ta
king a half or a quarter drop.
Price Throe and one-tuird rix dollars ($2,50)

A certificate from three members of the Medici I
Profession m Germany, in Europe.
We, the undersigned, praclitiuncrs ol 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 mem! ers, who are un
influenced by se.fish motives. Though we shall
refrain from an expression of our opinion, eitlun
of the soundness or uusoundness of Ur. Goclick s
new doctrine we are happy to say that vve deem
his Sanative too va.uable not to be generally
known —lb. vvliat our eyes behold and oui ca.s
hear, we must believe.
We hereby state, that when Dr. Louis OflVn
Goeiitk 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, uelieving and openly pronouncing him to he
a base impostor and the prince ol 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 ellicacy in curing not only consumption, but
aether fearful maladies, which we have heretofore
believed to be incurable. Our contempt for the
discoverer of this medicine was at once swallowed
up in our ultei astonishment at these unexpected
results; and, as amends for our abuse ol him, we
do fraiikty confess to the world, that wo believe
him a philanthropist, who does honor to the proles
sitn, 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 nee.led not on.

Gen. Harrison.
The present canvass has brought to light
through the columns es the National Intelligencer,
the subjoined speech of General Harrison, deliv
ered in the House of Representatives of the
United States, on the following Resolution,
which was submitted by him :
“ Resolved, That a committee be appointed
jointly with such committee as may be appointed
on the part of the Senate, to consider and report
what measures it may be proper to adopt to man
ifest the public respect for the memory of Gener
al Thauukus Kosciusko, formerly an officer in
the service of the United States, and the uniform
and distinguished friend of Liberty and the Rights
of Man.”
In this proposition the ruling passion of the
mover, his enthusiastic admiration of the prihei
ples of tl e Revolution, and his zeal in behalf of
liberty in general, and of the rignts of man, are
plainly developed.
Hut it is to the following speech, delivered on
that occasion, extracted from the file of the Na
tional Intelligencer, that we bespeak the particu
lar attention of our readers:
On presenting the above resolution, Gen. Har
rison addressed the House as follows;
“The public papers have announced an event
which is well calculated to excite the sympathy
every American bosom. Kosciusko, the martyr
of Liberty, is no more! We are info.med that
he died at Solcure, in France, some lime in Oc
tober last.
In tracing the events of this great man’s life,
we find in him that consistency of conduct which
is the to be admired as it is so rarely to be met
with. He was not at one time the friend of man
kind, and at another the instrument of their op
pression ; hut he preserved throughout his whole
career those noble principles which distinguished
him in its commencement —which influenced him,
at an early period of his l fe,-to leave his country
and his friends, and in another hemisphere to fight
for the rights of humanity.
Kosciu-ko was born and educated in Poland,
of a noble and distinguished family—a country
where the distinctions in society are perhaps car
ried to greater lengths than in any other. His
Creator, had, however, endowed him with a soul
capable ot rising above the narrow prejudices of
a caste, and breaking the shackles which a vicious
education had imposed on his mind.
When very young, he was informed by the
voice of Fame that the standard of liberty had
been erected in America—that an insulted and
oppressed people had determined to be free, or
perish in the attempt. His ardent and generous
mind caught, with enthusiam, the holy flame, and
from that moment he became the devoted soldier
of liberty.
“H is rank in the American army afforded him
no opportunity greatly to distinguish himself..
But he was remarked throughout his service for
all the qualities which adorn the human charac
ter. His heroic valor in the field could only be
equalled by his moderation and affability in the
walks of private life. He was idolized by the
soldiers for his bravery, and beloved and respect
ed by the officers for the goodness of his heart,
and the great qualities of his mind.
“ Contributing greatly, by his exertions, to the
establishment of the independence of America,
he might have remained and shared the blessings
it dispensed, under the protection of a chief who
loved and honored him, and in the bosom of a
grateful and affectionate people.
“ Kosciusko had, however, other views. It is
not known that, until the period I am speaking
of, he had formed any distinct idea of what could
or indeed what ought to be done for his own.
Butin the Revolutionary war he drank deeply of
the principles which pioduced it. In his conver
sations with the intelligent men of our country,
he acquired new views of the science of govern
ment and the rights of man. He had seen, too,
that, to be free, it was only necessary that a na
tion should will it; and, to be happy, it was only
necessary that a nation should be free. And
was it not possible to procure these blessings for
Poland I—for Poland, the country of his birth,,
which had a da m to all his efforts, to all his ser
vices 1 That unhappy nation groaned under a
complication of evils which hasscaicely a paral
lel in history. The mass of the people were the
abject slaves of the nobles ; the nobles torn into
factions, were alternately the instruments and the
victims of their powerful and ambitious neigh
bors. By intrigue, corruption, and force, some of
its fairest provinces had been separated from the
Republic, at.d the people, like beasts, transferred
to foreign despots, who were again watching for a
favorable moment for a second dismemberment.
To regenerate a people thus debased, to obtain
fora country thus circumstanced the, blessings of
liberty and independence, was a work of as
much difficulty as danger. But, to a mind like
Kosciusko’s, the difficulty and danger ofan enter
prise served as stimulants to undertake it.
“ The annals of these times gives us no detail
ed account of the progress of Kosciusko in ac
complishing his great work, from the period of
his return from America to the adoption of the
New Constitution of Poland, in 1791. This
inter* al, however, of apparent inaction, w as most
usefully employed to illumine the mental dark
ness which enveloped his countrymen. To stim
ulate the ignorant and bigotted peasantry with
the hope of future emancipation—to teach a
proud but gallant mbility that true glory is only
to be found in the paths of duty and patriotism—
interests the most opposed, prejudices the must
stubborn,and habits the most inveterate, were re
conciled, dissipated, and broken, by the ascendan
cy of his Grtues and example. The storm which
he had foreseen, and for which he had been pre
paring. at length burst upon Poland. A feeble
and unpopular Government bent before its fury,
and submitted itself to the Russian yoke of the
invader. But the nation disdained to follow its
example ; in their extremity every eye was turn
sd on the hero who had already fought their bat
tles, the sage who had enlightened them, and the
patriot who had set the example of oersonal sa
crifices to accomplish the emancipation of the
people.
“ Kosciusko vvas unanimously appointed gen
erallissirno of Pol »nd, with unlimited powers, un
til the enemy should be driven from the country.
On his virtue the nation reposed with the utmost
confidence; and it is some consolation to reflect,
amidst the general depravity of mankind, that two
instances, in the same age, have occurred, where
powers of this kind were employed solely for the
purposes for which they were given.
“ It is not my intention, sii, to follow the Pol
ish Chief throughout the career of victory which,
for a considerable time, crowned his efforts. Gui
ded by his talents, and led by his valor, his undis
ciplined, ill-armed militia charged with effect the
veteran Russian and Prussian; the mailed cuiras
siers of the great Frederick, for the first time,
broke and fled before the lighter and more appro
priate cavalry of Poland. Hope filled the breasts
of the patriots. After a long night, the dawn ot
an apparently glorious day broke upon Poland.
But, to the discerning eye of Kosciusko, the light
which it shed was of that sickly and portentous
