Citizens of North and South Am rica, To Louis Offon Goelicke, M.

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 Q Q Q. £• 3 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.

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. WALTER VAN GAIFLT, M. d. ADOLPHUS WERN aR, m. d.

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, L. Rinai.do Sank, No. 108 VVaiaut &t.

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.

The tear which thou upbraidest, * Thy falsehood taught to flow; The misery which thou madest, Mj cheek hath blighted so* The charms, alas? that won me, I never can forget, Although thou hast undone me, I o-wn I love thee yet. Go seek the happier maiden. Who lured thy Love from me; My heart with sorrow laden, Is no more prized by thee; Repeat the vows you made me. 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. From the People's own Book. 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.” Hand.bill Extraordinary*.

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.” Definition ot a.
