LOUIS OFFON GOEI.ICKE,
of Germany,
The Greatest of Human I enefactors.
Citizens of North and South Am rica,
To Louis Offon Goelicke, M. D., of Germany,
[Europe,] belongs the imperishabl ; honor of a * ling
a new and precious doctrine to th ■ science of medi
cine —a doctrine which, though vehemently opposed
by many of tiie faculty, (of whicl lie is a valuable
member,) he proves to be as well-founded in truth
as any doctrine of Holy Writ —a doctrine, upon the
verily of which are suspended tb«| lives of millions
of our race, and which he boldly < halionges his op
posers to refute, viz: Consumptio i is a disease al
ways occasioned by a disordered ;tatc of Vis V itie
(or Life Principle) of the human body; (£j=* often
secretly lurking in the system for years before
there is the least complaint of the Lungs an d
which may be as certainly, thougl not so quickly,
cured, as a common cold or a simpl * headache. An
invaluably precious doctrine this, as jt imparts an
important lesson to the apparently healthy of both
sexes, teaching them that this in idious foe may
be an unobserved inmate of their 4 clayey houses”
even while they imagine themsel ;es secure from
its attacks, teaching them that the Areat secret in the
art of preserving health is to pluc\ out the disease
when in the blade, and not wait ti'i the full grown
ear. \
This illustrious benefactor of ran i is also entitled
to youi unfeigned gratitude, andt! ; gratitude of a
world,for the invention of his ma. zhless Sanative,
—whose healing tiat may justly cl im for it such a
title, since it has so signally triu iphcd over our
great common enemy, [fff Consu nption, both in
the first and last stages, —a med line which has
thoroughly filled the vacuum in the MateriaMedica,
snj thereby proved itself the (£j” C nquernr of Phy
sic iansjff) —a medicine, for whi :h all mankind
will have abundant cause to bless the beneficent
hand of a kind Providence, —a r edicine whose
wondrous virtues have been so glov ingh pourtray
cd even by s nne of our clergy, ii their pastoral
visits to tee sick chamber ; by wh rii means they
often become the happy instrument ol changing de
sponding into hope, sickness into 1 ealtli, and sad
of friends into joyfulness

GOELICKE'S MATCHLESS SANATIVE,
A medicine of more value to m: i than the vast
mines of Austria, or evei the uni ed treasures of
our globe, —a medicine, which is o Rained eqv ly
from the vegatable, animal and mil eral kingdoms,
and thus possesses a three-fold pown r, —a medicine,
which, though designed as a remei y for consump
tion solely, is possessed of a myst rious influence
over many diseases of the human s\ Rem, —a medi
cine, which begins to be valued by ; hysicians, who
are daily witnessing its astonishing cures ot many
whom they had icsigned to the gra; p of the Insa
tiable Grave.
DOSE of the Sanative, for adult , one drop; for
children, a half-drop; and for inf: tits, a quarter

A certificate from three members the Medical
Profession in Germany, in fur ope.
We, the undersigned, practitioners of medicine j
in Germany, are well aware that, >y oui course,
we may forfeit the friendship of son c of the facul
ty, but not of it-: benevolent membei s, who are un
influenced by selfish motives. Tho igh we shall
refrain from an expression of our opinion, either
of the soundness or unsoundness of Dr. Goc lick’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 Often
Goo lick first came before the Gen an public, as
the pretended discoverer of a new d >ctrine and a
new medicine, we held him in tin highest con
tempt, believing and openly pronoun ing him to be
a base impostor and the prince of qu; cks. But, on
bearing so much said about the Sana! :ve, against it
and for it, we were induced, from me rives of curi
osity merely, to make trial of its r puted virtues
upon a number of oar most hopeless patients; and
we now deem it our bounden duty (even at the
expense of self-interest) publicly l« acknowledge
its etficacy in curing not only con umplion, but
other fearful maladies, which we hr ve heretofore
believed to be incurable. Our contempt for the
discoverer of this medicine was at oi ce swallowed
up in our utter astonishment at the e unexpected
results; and, as amends for our abu eof him, we
do frankly confess to the world, thak we believe
him a philanthropist, who does honor to the proies
sicn, and to our country, which gave J im birth.
The recent adoption of this medic ne into some
of our European hospitals, is a sullic ent guaranty
that it performs all promises. It n eded not our
estimony,for wherever it is used it b its own best
wi ness. HERMAN ETMUL ,ER, m. d.

DR. JAYNE’S
OLEAGINOUS HAIR TONIC.
Copy of a letter from Dr. S. S. Fitch, dated
Philadelphia, May JO, IS3S.
DR. JAYNE —Dear Sir,—l feel that I can
hardly say enough to you in favor of Jayne's
Oleaginous Hair Tonic, prepared by you. My
hair had been falling olf about two years, and had
become very thin, threatening speedy baldness,
when 1 commenced using this remedy. In about
• one week, it ceased to fall off. I have used it now
about three months, and have as full and thick a
head of hair as I can possibly desire. I have
recommended its use to a number of my friends,
who all speak well of it. If faithfully employed,
I have no doubt ot its general success.* I may add
that before using the Tonic, 1 had tried almost all
the various articles employed for the hah, such as
1 the Macassar Oil, all the different preparations of
Bear’s Oil, Vegetable Hair Oil, &c. &c., without
experiencing much, if any, benefit. Respectfully
j-ours, S. S. Fitch, No. 172 Chesnut street.
e f° re Dr- Fitch used this Tonic his iia r be
gan to be gray, but since then there is not a gray
hair to be found on his head.
, Philadelphia, May IT, 1838.
Dr. Jayne—Dear Sir, —I cheerfully and with
pleasure submit the following to you, with the
liberty of your making it public, should you have
the desire: —For several months past my hair had
1 been rapidly falling off, so much so indeed that by
passing my fingers lightly through it, I could obtain,
a quantity in my hand. I had tried all the fash
ionable Oils of the day, without having received
the slightest sensible benefit. The only resource
that seemed left to me, was to-have my head shav
ed and wear a wig. Having, through a friend who
i had profitted by its use, heard of the remarkable
cures effected by dyne’s Oleaginous Hair Tonic,
sold by you, I was induced, as a dernier resort, to’
try it. I have used two battles, and am pleased to
, say, that after a few applications, my hair ceased
entirely from coming out, the young hair made its
appearance in great abundance, and that now I
have a fine, luxuriant growth, and believe it to be
f the best remedy ever yet discovered. A fair trial
will be its best recommendation. Independently
of its virtues as a restorative and preventive, it
imparts to the hair a fine health}-, glossy appear
-1 ance, rendering it soft and flexible, which will
make it an invaluable acquisition for the toilet of
every one at all desirous of beautifying that great
est of adornments of the face—the hair.
Returning my most sincere thanks for saving
- me from premature baldness, by the use of the
above Tonic, I am, dear Sir, your obedient servant,

Dr. D. Jayne, —Sir —l take pleasure in inform
ing you that the bottle of Jayne’s Hair Tonic,
which 1 obtained of you last October, has proved
most satisfactory and successful. My hair had for
a long time been exceedingly thin. But for two
or three years past it had so fallen out that my
head had become almost entirely bald. I was un
* der the necessity of concealing the baldness by
, combing the hair on the sides over it. But now,
after using about half of a bottle of the “Tonic,”
I have as luxuriant growth of hair as I ever had.

Say, swear thy vows are true.
Thy taithless vows betrayed me,
They may betray her too.
But no! moy she ne’er languish,
me in shame and wo;
Ne’er feel the throbbing anguish
i hat 1 ara doomed to know!
i he eye that once was beaming
A tale of love for thee,
Is now with sorrow streaming,.
For thou art false to me.

The Virtue of Chanty.
“Todo unto others on all occasions, as yen
would have them do to you, is charity.”
“ A man lived by his labor—himself, his wife,
and litlle ones * T and as he had good health, and
strong arms, and easily fount! employment, he
met with no great difficulty in providing subsis
tence for himself and those who were dear to him.
“But it happened that the country experiened
great commercial and financial difficulties, and
the demand for labor diminished, because it could
no longer be profitably employed, and meanwhile
the necessaries of life increased In price.
“ The laborer an d his family began to suffer
Having exhausted his moderate savings, he was
compelled first to sell his furniture piece by piece
and then articles of clothing, and when all had
thus gone, having no other resources, hunger,
stared him in the face. Nor did hunger enter
his cottage unattended—sickness came with it.
“ Now this man had two neighbors, the one
very rich and the other less so. He went to the
first, and said r We are in want of the necessa
ries of life, myself, my wife and my children :
have pity on us.
“ The rich man replied : What can I do in the
case 1 When you labored for me, did I either re
fuse or defer payment 1 I have never wronged
you nor any one; my hands arc pure from all
iniquity. Your sufferings afflict me, but every
one must look out lor himself these hard times ;
who knows how long they will last T
“ The poor father answered not, but with an
1 aching heart, was slowly returning to his deso
late home, when he met his other neighbor, who
was less rich. The latter seeing that he was pen
sive and sad, thus accosted him: What is the
matter with youl There are cares upon your
brow and tears in your eyes.
“ The father, with a faltering voice, explained
his unhappy situation.
“ When he had finished : Why, said the oth
er to him, do you grieve so much for this! Are
we not brothers 1 And how can I abandon my
brother in His distress 1 Come and share with
me, that which I hold from the goodness of Goti
“ The suffering family was thus sustained un
til they could themselves provide for their own
wants.”
“ After several years had passed, the two rich
men appeared together before the sovereign judge
of human actions.
And the judge said to the first: My eye has
(• flowed thee on the earth ; thou hast abstained
from violating their rights; thou hast rigorously
fulfilled the strict law of justice ; but in fulfilling
it thou hast lived only fur thyself; thy impenetra
ble soul has not comprehended the law of love.
And now, in this new world, where thou enter
est poor and naked, it shall he done to thee as
thou hast done to others. Thou lias reserved for
thyself all the goods that have ever been lavished
on thee. Thou hast thought but of thyself, tbou
has loved but thyself; go, and in solitude live of
thyself.
44 Then, turning towards the second, the Judge
said to him: Because thou hast not been just
alone, but charity has penetrated thy heart; be
cause thy hand Iras been open to scatfer among
thy less happy brethren, the wealth of which
thou wert the depository, that the tears of them
that wept might he wiped away—greater good
shall be given to thee. Go, and receive the re
compense of them that have fully accomplished
their duty the law of justice and the law of love.”
From Shelley's Posthumous Prose.
St-Peter’s at Rome.—What shall I say
of the mtdern city I Rome is yet the capitol of
the world. It is a city of palaces and temples,
more glorious than those which any other city
contains, and of ruins more glorious than they.
Seen from any of the eminences that surround it,
it exhibits domes heyor.d domes, and palaces and
coflonades interminable, even to the horizon ; in
terspersed with patches of desert, and mighty ru
ins which stand girt by their own desolation, in
the midst of the sanes of living religions and the
habitations of living men, in sublime loneliness.
St. Peter’s is, as you have beard, the loftiest
building in Europe. Externally it is inferior in
architectural beauty; internally exhibits little
ness on a large scale, and it is in every respect
opposed to antique taste.
You know my propensity to admire ; and I
tried to persuade myself out of this opinion—in
vain ; the more I see of the interior of St. Peter’s,
the less impression as a whole doe? it produce on
me. I cannot even think it lofty, though its dome
is considerably higher than any hill within fifty
miles of London ; and when one reflects, it is an
astonishing monument of the daring energy of
man. Its colonade is wonderfully fine, and there
are two fountains which rise in spire-hke col
umns of water to an immense height in the sky,
and falling on the porphyry vases from which they
spring, fill the whole air with a radiant mist,
which at noon is thronged with innumerable rain
bows, In the mi Ist standi an obelisk. In front is
the palacc-like facade of St. Peter’s, certainly
magnificent; and there is produced, on the
whole, an architectural combination unequalled
in the world. But the dome of the temple is con
cealed, except at a very great distance, by the
fecade and the inferior part of the building, and
that diabolical contrivance they call an attic.
The effect of the Pantheon is totally the reverse
of that of St. Peter’s. Though not a fourth part
of the size, it is. as it were, the visible image of
the universe; in the perfection of its proportions,
as when you regard the unmeasured dome of
heaven, the idea of magnitude is swallowed up
and tost. It is open to the sky, and its wide dome
is lighted by the ever-changing illumination of
air. The clouds of noon flv over it, and at night
the keen stars are seen through the axure dark
ness, hanging immoveable, or driving after the
driving moon among the clouds. We visited it
by moonlight; it is supported by sixteen co-
lumns, fluted, and Corinthian of a certain rare
and beautiful yellow marble, exquisitely polish
ed, called here gin lie antico. Above these are the
niches for the statues of the twelve-gods. This
is the only defect of this sublime temple; there
ought to have been no interval between the com
mencement of the dome and the cornice, sup
ported by the column?. Thus there would hate
been no diversion from the magnificent simpli
city of its form. This improvement is alone
wanting to have completed tfie)unity of the idea.
OniGix of Paul Put.—ln a popular periodi
cal work some years ago, Mr. Pool, the author of
Paul Pry, gave the following account of the origin
of that excellent comedy: “An idle old lady,
living in a narrow street, had passed so much of
her lime in watching the affairs of her neighbor^.
. that she at length acquired the power of distin
guishing the sound of every knocker within hear
ing. It happened that she fell ill, and was for sev
eral days confined to bed. Unable to observe in
person, what was going on without, she stationed
her maid at the window, as a substitute for the
performance of that duty. But Betty soon grew
weary of the occupation. She became earless in
her negligence. ‘Betvy what are you thinking
about? don’t you hear a double knock at No. 9 ?
Who is it?’ ‘The first-floor lodger, ma’am.’—
‘Betty! Betty! I declare I must give you warning.
Why don’t you tell me what that knock is at No.
54?’ ‘Why ma’am, it is only the baker with
pie?.’ ‘Pies, Betty I what can they want with
pies at 54 ? they had pies yesterday !’—Of this
very point I have availed myself. Let me add,
that Paul Pry was never intended as the rep
resentative of any one individual, but a class. I
could mention five or six who were unconscious
contributors 10 the character. That it should
have been so often, though erroneously, supposed
to have been drawn after particular persons,is
perhaps complimentary to the general truth of tho
delineation.”

PaETTT good. — A bachelor advertises, in the
Bangor Whig, fur a wife, in the following quaint
way:—
WANTED.
A Wife / One who in this ultra and anti-com
mon sense age, will answer to Solomon’s and
Paul’s description of a good one, viz : one that
“looketh to the ways of her household,” and is a
“chaste stayer at home;” one that will guide my
house, cook, or superintend the cooking of rny
dinner, darn my stockings, patch my elbows,
mend my shirts, instruct my servants, nurse and
help educate my children. In short, one whoso
constant presence shall cheer, intelligence lighten
and good taste regulate her own domicil, —while
fashionable calls, gossiping and street walking
are left for those who chose so to spend their time.
She may not be President, or member even of
any of the reform societies of the day; for the do
mestic circle is, according to my notion, the sphere
of woman’s activities; and through that she may
hope to have an influence on the world. And L
should rather her name were not on any “peti
tion” that may grace the halls of Congress, for
it is one I should value too highly to be willing
to have it “laid on,” or undei the “table.” Now,
Messrs. Editors, if you know of any young lady
who would be likely to make such a wife, and
will inform me, through your paper, where she
may be found, I will forthwith lay myself and for
tune, and if she accept my suit, will doff my title
of Bachelor about Town.
It is said that more than two hundred persons
were employed from March to November, 1839,
in making the lace worn by Victoria at her mar
riage.
“ The lace which formed the flounce of tho
dress measured four yards, and is three-quarters
of a yard in depth. The pattern is a rich and
exquisitely tasteful design, drawn expressly for
the purpose, aud surpas>es anything that has
ever been executed either in England or in Brus
sels. So anxious wa> the manufacturer that her
Majesty should have a dress perfectly unique,
that he has since the completion of the laces de
stroyed all the signs. Tho veil, which is of the
same material, and i& made to correspond, afford
ed employment to the poor lace workers for more
than six weeks. It is a yard and a half square.”
A letter from London in the Philadelphia Ga
zette, says: I have seen her Majesty several times*
and whatever the papers may say to the contra
ry, site has not the slightest pretension to beauty.
She has goggle eyes, and a squirrel mouth
stature is low, and her person heavy. What gal
lantry !
A stump orator out West, wishing to describe
his opponent as a soulless man, did it in this wises
‘ I have heard,” says he, “some persons hold to tho
opinion that just at the precise instant alter one
human being dies, another is born; and that tho
soul of the deceased enters and animates the new
born babe. Now I have made particular and ex
tensive enquiries concerning my opponent thar ,
and I find that for some hours previous to his na
tivity, nobody died! Fellow citizens, you may
draw the inference.”
The best wax to track. —The French phi
losopher Diderot once said, that “the best way to
educate a child is to tell it stories, and let it tell
stories to you.”
