The Beggar and his Coat.
The beggar is a by himself—a crea
ture belonging to a distinct and sadly calum
niated class. His home is wherever charity
offers a straw pallet and a crust; his care is
to make himself look pitiable, and his craft,
like that of the bee’s, is to extract something
of value from every plant which he may meet
in his wanderings, be it sweet or bitter.
There be some beggars who are very philos
ophers in their way, who look with a stoic
eye on all the developments of misfortune,
and who brighten their pathways with gleams
of most erratic genius. But others .again
are extremclv common-place members of hu
manity, and are subject to all the ills and
frailties to which mortals, in general, must
bow. Nay—they have even more annoyan
ces, in many respects, than those which fall
to the lot of the commonality of mankind.
“The pangs of despised love” are theirs in an
eminent degree, and though they cannot much
complain of “the law’s delay,” yet, certainly,
with good reason may they raise their voices
against “the insolence of office.”
And then, who is there that sees more of
the crooks, the crannies, and short-comings
of this wicked world, than does the jolly beg
gar ? He knows tales of love which some
who look on him, with contempt, would give
the very apples of their eyes to know. Aye,
many a scented billet doux has been entrusted
to the sun-browned hand of the merry men
dicant, and right skillfully, if ho pleases, can
ho act the go-between, not letting his left
hand know what his right hand doetli.
There is joy for the mendicant when he
finds himself entrusted with the secrets of
those who “sigh like furnance,” for sighs
bring thrift to his “itching palm,” and thrift
brings the mind of the mendicant. But
have a care, old gray beard! If the business
thou followest be found out, thy back will be
likely to feel the lash, for jealousy has peer
ing eyes, and a hand which is cunning in
castigation. Aye, have a care, old mendi
cant, and see that thy billet doux are deliver
ed in the proper place, and at the proper
time!
Having thus premised, we will to our tale,
in order that our readers may take a passing
glance at that rarest of all mendicants, Fran
cois Goran.
Francois was once a maker of coats in
sunny France, but from both France ami
coat making he has long been expatriated.
Francois had a genius, and begging was a
calling which afforded greater scope for the
exercise of his genius, than did the business
of the scissors, the needle, and the goose,
ergo tailorizing was eschewed by Francois
for the trade, art and mystery of begging.
In pursuance of his scientific intentions,
Francois crossed the briny seas, and took up
his abode in the city of the Crescent, but nev
er fill yesterday was it known that lie has
pursued his craft with thrift. Yesterday,
however, an officer of the First Municipality
Police arrested him while in the act of ab
stracting a small quantity of cotton from a
hale on the Levee, and straightway was he
taken to the guard-house. When there, it
was discovered that his coat—which seemed
to he an heirloom through many generations,
and which, in its patchwork exterior, would
present no inviting spectacle in the “glass of
fashion,” even if habiting “the mould of
form”—was wadded with something of a
metallic nature. As the examination of the
mendicant’s coat proceeded, deposit after de
posit, and placer after placer were unripped,
and from “that same” old coat, no less than
$247 25 in silver, and $5 in gold, and $5 in
f taper currency were sent rolling and tiimb
ing on the guard room floor, to the infinite
delight of the official spectators. Francois
and his money were next introduced to Re
corder Genois, and the Recorder, after ask
ing him a few questions concerning his“trav
el’s history,” which developed the facts above
alluded to, told Francois that he would have
to commit him for trial before the Mayor’s
Court, in pursuance of which decree, the
mendicant is now in durance.
Sad, while incarcerated in the lonely cell,
must be the feelings of the mendicant! He
will think while awake, and if he sleeps, he
will dream of his precious heaps, and of the
patient perseverance which enabled him to
collect and retain them. He will think of
his silver in others’ hands, and as he does so,
the big tears will chaso each other down his
cheeks, or wander away in melancholy rivu
lets,among the roots of his time-frosted beard,”
and then will grief, inconsolable, frighten
“nature’s soft nurse” from the performance
of his kindly offices.
Again, if the memory be placed under
lock and key, may not “thieves break
through and steal?” or may not fire be kin
dled in the building by some busy incendiary ?
There is madness for the mendicant in the
very thought! Shall the hoarded wealth,
never before separated from his body by
uight or by day, be ripped from his coat of
many colors, by assassins’ knives ? Shall the
secrets of a long life of patient gathering be
exposed, and by it the future success of the
mendicant be jeopardized, without the faint
est shadow of redress ? There is murder in
contemplation, and it may be that the morn
ing will find the mendicant a subject for a
coroner’s jury, the which, ye gods avert!—
N.O. Delta.’
Cherry Brandy.—lts Humorous ESects.
The Lord of Eonniemoon was gac fond of
his bottle. On one occasion ho was asked
to dine with Lord R , a neighbor of
his; and Lordship, being well acquainted
with the Laird’s dislike to small drinks, order
ed a bottle of cherry brandy to be set before
him after dinner, instead of port, which he al
ways drank in preference to Claret, when
nothing better was to be got. The Laird
thought this fine heartsome stuff, and on he
went, tiling his glass like the rest, and tell- j
nig his jokes, and ever the more he praised
liis Lordship’s Port. “It was a fine, full
bodied wine, and lay well on the stomach,
not like that poisonous Claret, that made a
body feel as if he had swallowed a nest of
puddocks.” The Laird had finished one bot
tle of Cherry brandy, or as his Lordship
called.it, his “particular port,” and had just
tossea off a glass of the second bottle, which
he declared to be even better than the first,
when his old confidential servant, Watty,
came 6taving into the room, and making his
bow announced that the Laird’s horse was at
die door.
“Get out of that, ye fause loon,” cried the
Laird, pulling off his wig and flinging it at
Watty’s head. “Do na ye see, ye blether
ing brute, that I’m just beginning my second
bottle ?”
“But, maister,” says Watty, scratching his
head, “it’s amaist twall o’clock.”
“Well, what though it be ?” said the Laird,
turning up his glass with drunken gravity,
while the rest of the company were like to
split their sides laughing at him and Watty.
“It canna be only latter, my man, reach me
my wig and let the naig bide a wee.”
It was a cold, frosty night, and Watty
soon tired of kicking his heels at the door—
so in a little while back he comes, and, says
fce, “maister, maister, it’s amaist one o’clock !” j
“Well, Watty,” says the Laird, with a hic
cup for he was far gone by this time—“it
will never be any earlier, V\ atty, my man,
and that’s a comfort; so you may just rest
yourself a wee while longer, till I finish my
bottle. A full belly makes a stiff back, you
know, Watty.”
Watty was by this time dancing mad ; so
after waiting another half hour, back he
comes, and, says he,
“Laird, Laird, as true as death, the sun’s
rising.”
“Weel, Watty,” says the Laird, looking
awful wise, and trying with both hands to fill
his glass, “let him rise, lie has farther to gang
the day than you or me, Watty.”
This answer fairly dumbfounded poor
Wa ty, and he gave it up in despair. But at
last the bottle was finished; the Laird was
lifted into the saddle, and off he rode in high
glee, thinking all the time the moon was the
sun, and that he had fine day-light for his
journey home.
“Hech, Watty, my man,” said the Laird,
patting his stomach and speaking awful thick,
“we were none the worse for that second
bottle, this frosty mornin’. ”
“Faith,” says Watty, blowing his fingers
and looking as blue as a bilberry, “your bon
or is, may be, nane the worse for it, but I’m
nane the better; I wish I was.”
“Well, on they rode, the Laird gripping
hard at the horse’s mane and rolling about
like a sack of meal; for the cold air was be
ginning to make the spirits tell on him. At
last they came to a bit qf a brook that cross
ed the road, and the Laird’s horse being pret
ty well used to having his own way, stopped
short and put down his head to take a drink.
This had the effect to make the Laird lose his
balance, and away he went, over the horse’s
ears, into the middle of the brook. The Laird,
honest man, has just sense enough to hear the
splash and to know that something was
wrong; hut he was so drunk that he did not
! in the least suspect that it was himself.
“Watty,” says he, “there is surely some
thing tumbled into the brook, Watty.”
“Faith, you may say that,” replied Watty,
ready to roll off his horse with laughing, “for
it’s just so yourself, Laird!”
“flout fie, no Watty,” cried the Laird, “it
surely canna he me.”
“Surely, maister, ft is yourself.”
“It canna be inc, Watty— -for I’m here /”
Milling in California.
The New York Journal of Commerce con
tains a from the mines of California,
from which we make the following extracts.
Speaking of the prospects, the writer says :
The mines generally, throughout Califor
nia, are jammed full, and if not another man
should enter the State for a year, many would
still he unable to find a resting place for the
soles of their feet. Yet the immense body
of emigrants from the Plains has only just
begun to arrive, and the Isthmus is daily
pouring its throngs in upon us. “Where are
these men to dig ?” is the hourly question of
miners. “Not in our claims, for our own
room is scant.” Surely, after the history of
this year’s emigration is told, people in the
old States will begin to feel the fact, that
they should have come to the mines sooner or
not at all.
So much for the graver part of mining life
just at this time. Out of them, however,
pressing as they are, we sometimes can ex
tract merriment. One of the most amusing
episodes in the life of a Californian, is the in
finite variety of law which he sees and hears.
The following trial, which I attended a few
days since, is a fair specimen.
The question in dispute was, as usual, a
“jumped claim.” Scene—Washington, a vil
lage high up on the South Yuba. Court
room —a “round tent,” or gambling shop,
owned by the \lcalde, whom, behold at a
monte-table, behind which he sits in all the
dignity of office, wearing the only coat to be
found in the place.
In pleading, the defendant “put himself up
on the miners,” instead of “upon the coun
try,” according to the usual form, and then
remarked that “the papers in his hand had
been drawn up with a view to test the ability
and honesty of the Court.” This was a nail
which he clenched by quietly adding, “who
is well known to be in the round-tent inter
est.” He then required the plaintiff to enter
security for cost of suit, and when the other
had done this, demanding the same of him,
he refused, coolly remarking that he never
intended to pay costs or abide the Court’s
judgment, hut should appeal to the miners in
mass meeting. The plaintiff at once with
drew the suit, avowing his purpose to settle
upon th# claim and defend it with his rifle.
The defendant thereupon joined issue—“he
would do the like,” and they were about leav
ing the round tent, when the Alcalde rose
from liis monte-table and hurst forth indig
nantly. His speech was filled with expletives
and left-handed blessings, to which I dare not
do justice. It was of an hour’s length, but
consisted of a few topics upon which the
changes were fiercely rung. He prefaced all
by pulling off liis coat. As near as I can re
collect, the body of his speech was this :
“Gentlemen! hold on a hit till I get
through, and then we’ll take a tot together.
I can’t help speaking to you now, ’cause that
dirty old coyote of a defendant has attacked
mv honor. I meant to keep still till the trial
was over, hut now, since they’re quit that,
and are going to work at the game that ‘the
longest pole knocks off the persimmon,’ I’m
bound to tell that defendant that I don’t
know him, don’t wan’t to know him, don’t
Iccer for him, don’t /cor him, and swear I’ll
flog him. Gentlemen, this is the first time
my honor was ever attacked since you elect
ed me Alcalde. If ever I try another case,
I’ll try it with a revolver on the table, and if
any man insults me, he shall receive the con
tents of it. Gentlemen, I stand in Californy
on my own footing as a man, and on the re
sponsibility of the miners, as an Alcalde. I
come from old Yarginnv, a poor hoy, and
went to Mazourn, where I should have been
! poor all my life, if I hadn’t married a girl
with a powerful smart sprinklin’ of money.
Then I used to lay oft’ in the shade with my
babies, and it iras her heart’s delight to sit
and see me do it. I come out to Californy
to replace them dimes, and when a man as
sails my reputation lie assails the reputation
of a man of family, who have family duties
to mind. 1 left a wife and two innocent ba
bies in Mazoura, and it would be mean for
me to come out here and do anything dis
honorable. Gentlemen, the defendant hev
huv out some insinuations against my char
acter ! If he’d done anything else I wouldn’t
kcer, but when my honor is attacked—l’d
rather die—oh-h-h ! (Here the Alcalde had a
choking spasm of some length, and then pro
ceeded with clenched fists.) Gentlemen, I’m
the littlest man on the river, but I’ve got a
heart as big as a round tent! That’s why
they elected me alcalde, because I was a little
man and had a heart big enough to do jus
tice to round tent men and miners both.
“Since I’ve been Alcalde, I’ve always given
‘em the right sort of justice, and as long as I
am Alcalde, I mean to give ’em just what sort
of justice suite me best. I’m no lawyer, and
don’t know any kind of law but what’s
called common law—and everybody knows
that is notliing else but common sense and
justice, as we praciyse it in Californy. Now,
gentlemen, I want you to see if I don’t give
that defendant justice according to the com
mon law of these diggins. (Here the monte
table shook under an emphatic whack of his
fist, and the ink was scattered over the re
cords of the court.) Now the ink, and the
pen, and the papers and the defendant, all go
to hell together.”
He thereupon leaped upon the defendant,
and proceeded to administer “the common :
law of Californy” in most superb style. j
| When this operation was finished, and the i
defendant kicked out of the seat of justice—
videlicet, the round tent—the alcalde turned
to the crowd, and politely remarked:
“Gentlemen, allow me to express mv obli
gations to you for your presence and the at
tention you have shown me during this trying
ceremony. Toddle up, all of you, and take
a tot. Then I can heat any man in the j
crowd at seven-up with an ounce for the first
Jack!”
In a few days, our title to the claim we ;
now hold will probably ho tried by this man.
The whole property may be worth thirty
thousand dollars, and may not he worth an
ounce. PHIL BRENGLE.
Robert Southey.
The Harpers have recently issued the
fifth part of the Life and Correspondence of
Robert Southey , to be completed in anoth
er number. It is one of the most agreeable
and valuable works that have been of late
added to English literature. We have read
it with unalloyed pleasure, and it cannot fail
to elevate the character and fame of its dis
tinguished subject. Robert Southey will
stand as an example to men of letters for the
purity of his life and character, for his kind
heartedness and liberality, no less than liis
devotion to his profession, and the grace and
dignity with which he invested it. His call
ing was purely literary, and he lived on the
income derived from his pen, with entire free
dom from the shiftlessness and irregularity
which have too frequently dishonored the
profession of literature and impaired the posi
tion of its followers.
The letters in these volumes are among the
most delightful in the language. They have all
the ease and flow of Byron’s epistolary style,
with nothing of the slip-shod and slatternly
to disfigure them. They are models of pure
English composition; and some of them as
exquisitely touching and tender as any thing
that ever came from the pen of man, “or
woman either.” The letter on the loss of
his daughter, Isabel, to her surviving sister,
short and simple as it is, will be read with
tears by thousands who have suffered under
similar bereavements, and will “serve here
after for consolation and admonishment” for
thousands besides those to whom it was origi
nally written.
Happy indeed is the man whose life can be
submitted to a test like that of the present
publication, and shine forth with such spot
less and attractive beauty. Here is an ex
hibition of the most, private and domestic
traits—in letters to the most confidential
friends, written in the freest and most con
fidential spirit—and we find nothing in them
which does not breathe the most genial and
generous nature. If it be true that no man
is a hero to his valet de chainbre, still more
true should it seem that no man can be a
hero to his executor. But to this rule
Southey furnishes an exception, and we com
mend liis Life and Correspondence to our
readers as a book that combines the enter
tainment of a novel with the instruction of a
history and the elevation of an epic.— Repub.
Ascent of Mont Blanc.
The following is a detailed account, from
Galignani’s Messenger, of the recent ascent
of Mont Blanc:
“YVe have received the following from a
correspondent at Chamounix, dated the 30th
ult.: ‘Great excitement was caused in the
town of Chamounix, on the morning of
Wednesday, the 28th, in consequence of the
departure of Mr. Gretton, late sth Fusileers,
and Mr. Richards, of the county of Wex
ford, Ireland, with a party of the brave
mountaineers of Chamounix, for tho purpose
of ascending to tho summit of Mont Blanc.
Crowds assembled to witness their start, as
the hazardous nature of the adventure was
well known, the guides having left their
watches and little valuables behind, and the
two gentlemen made their wills and prepared
for the worst. Great anxiety was expressed
on many a face, as the little band, headed by
our two countrymen, disappeared in the forest
at the foot of the mountain. The ascent is
always accompanied with great peril, as
steps have to be cut up the sloping hanks of
ice, and one of the largest glaciers lias to be
passed, where one false step entails certain
death, as the unfortunate man falls into a
crevice of almost unknown depth, from which
no human hand could extricate him.
A night has to be passed on the cold rock,
and spots have to be passed where no word
can he spoken lest thousands of tons of snow
should be set in motion and hurl the party
into eternity, as was the case some years
back, when a similar attempt was made. At
three o’clock, the report of cannon at Cha
mounix, announced that our adventurous
countrymen had gained the Grand Mulets,
the rock on which they were to take up their
quarters for the night. The next day all was
excitement; nothing else was thought of in
the town. The Flegere and Brevan were
crowded with anxious observers. About 11
o’clock, the fog clearing away from the sum
mit of the father of the Alps, the little band
were seen to be slowly approaching the top,
and a few minutes after the report of cannot)
in Chamounix announced the undertaking
successful. The clouds, however, soon ob
scured them from our view, and we saw noth
ing more of them until about half-past seven,
P. 31., when, preceded by the best music
Chamounix afforded, and carried on the backs
of some enthusiastic Frenchmen, they were
received at the Hotel do Londres with loud
cheers, firing of cannon, and expressions of
delight at their safe return. The guides give
great praise to both gentlemen for tho cool
ness and courage they displayed.’ ”
Somebody says: “The devil never troubles
a busy man.” ’l'liis we know to be false. —
Show us a busier man than the editor, and
yet he is fortunate if he has no more than one
“devil’ to trouble him, especially when “copy”
is short.
“Come here, you mischievous little rascal,
you.”
“Won’t vou lick me, father ?”
“No.”
“Will you swear you won’t?”
“Yes!”
“Then I wou’t come, father; for Parson
Atwood says “he that swears will lie.”
When you see a gentleman at midnight
sitting on the stoop in front of his house
combing his hair with the door-scraper, you
may conclude that he has been out at an eve
ning party.

’ CELEBRATED
RHEUMATIC LINIMENT.
In introdueingjhis medicine to the people of the Unit
ed States, for sale, the proprietors beg leave to submit
the following statement of Dr. de Granenried, its discov
erer and inventor :
The undersigned frankly states that lie has prescribed
this medicine for the last twenty-two years, in all forms
of Acute and Chronic Rheumatism, with a success un
paralleled in the annals of medicine ; and lie has no hes
itation in saying,, that it is decidedly the most valuable
remedy ever yet discovered for the relief of tliis most pain
| ful and distressing malady.
I His note-book contains upwards ol three hundred ca
| ses, in which it has lieen used within the above named
: period,and in no single instance has it come to hisknowl
j edge, of its having tailed to effect a cure when perscreved
: in. Many of the cases were from fourto ten yoursstand
: ing ; and what may appear yet more remarkable and cx
! traordinary.Ls, that when the patient has been once re
; lieved, the disease is permanently cured, remains so, not
! a solitary instance having been reported to him ofitsre
: turn.
All he would ask for this remedy is a fair, impar
tial and patient trial, for the results lie entertains no ap
i prehension.
j L T pto the tiriie ol this discovery, the undersigned had
; well studied the origin, progress, and character ot this dis
| ease,and is well assured, had consulted every author on
| its treatment, who had written or been translated into
i the English language, and had used all the remedies of
any notoriety then in vogue with the profession, with
j however, very rarely any relief to poor suffering hu
j inanity.
It has baffled the skill and science of the most eminent
Physicians and Surgeons of our own, and <>( every other
country. But the undersigned Hatters himself that liis
remedy will cure this most painful disease, when all oth
ers have failed, and that he shall have been an humble in
strument in the hands of God, ol relieving the human
family of a vast amount of suffering.

Col. A. B. Hagan —Sir.: It affords me great pleasure
to be able to hear testimony to the efficacy and virtues
of Dr. de Crraffcnrieds Rheumatic Liniment.
I have lieen sorely afflicted for tho last six years with,
what I believed to lie, and what eminent Physicians of
this city pronounced, Rheumatic gout,for several winters
past I have been confined to my room and t ed nearly ail
the time. In January last, I had an attack a’ violent if
not more so than usual, which prostrated me for about
three weeks; on your reeeommcndation I commenced
the use of this Liniment. (With I must confess but little
faith). Its effects were astonishing and decidedly bene
ficial from its first application. In a few days nit* back,
wrists ancles were entirely relieved (and so contin
ue) of all soreness, pains, and the swelling’s reduced,
with the use of less than one bottle. 1 have been in the
discharge of my ordinary business ever since.
I consider it an extraordinary, and decidedly the most
efficacious remedy for this disease which 1 have ever mot
with. And most cheerfully recommend its use to all
who may be afflicted with it.
Respectfully Yours, N. W. BRIDGES.

Dr. de Graf e’nried — Dear Sir For the last twelve
years I have suffered very severely with the Rheumatism,
having been nearly one fourth of the time confined to
my bed by it. I have had the best medical aid to bo
found in various cities in the United States, with little
or no benefit. I have also tried innumerable strongly
recommended remedies, which have failed to effect a
cure. 1 spent the last summer at the White Sulphur and
Hot Springs in Virginia, to little, purpose. After my return
home, I so far recovered, as to be able to walk about a lit
tle. About six weeks since. I had a very severe attack
which again confined me to my bed, I was in great pain
atidsearely able to move my limbs, when a friend of
mine called and informed me that you had discovered
an infallible remedy, and had cured many, and amongst,
them, one of my friends, and showed me a letter from
him stating the fact. I was induced to try your Rheu
matic Linament, and take pleasure in informinig you that
in less than twenty four hours from the first application
I was perfectly free, from pain, and continue so, up to
this time. lam now able to attend to business, and
fondly hope all those afflicted, as I have been, may be as
speedily relieved, as I have been with your medoeine.—
Wishing you all the Blessings you deserve Dear sir.

Dr. De Graffenried—Dear sir : I take, pleasure in giv
ing you the particulars of my affliction by, and relicffrom
Rheumatism. During the spring 0f1844 I was afflicted
with a very severe attack of Inflammatory Rheumatism.
I employed all the most celebrated remedies then known
and used in similar cases,aided by medical advice, until
September, 1345, with no satisfactory result whatever.
I was then induced, by a rheumatic acquaintance, to try
vour Liniment, as something new, and which had cured
him ; and in one month, from the time I commenced the
application, 1 was well, and clear of the Rheumatism as
I ever was, and have continued so to this time.
Yours, truly, L. C. 31 ORTON.

Dr. E. L. de Graffenried—Learning that von arc about
to manufacture for the public, your valuable Rheumatic
Liniment, I take pleasure in stating that 1 believe it
one of the most valuable remedies ever used for that
common and most distressing disease, having witnessed
its effects upon a negro man of mine, who had been af
flicted for four years, until almost every joint was en
larged, and the body otherwise emaciated. By the use
of four or five bottles, in three weeks he was relieved en
tirely from pain

Columbus, October 30, 1349.
Dear Sir —Akont the first of April last, 1 came to Co
lumbus to get medical assistance, and was advbed to
call on you, as having a remedy that would ailbrd me
speedy relief. I was taken down in January last, with
a violent attack of Rheumatism in nearly all my joints
so badly, that I could not pull of my shoes without aid ;
nor could I ascend or descend steps, or pull off mv
clothes without assistance. 31y right arm and hand
were nearly useless ; the fingers contracted and swollen;
the right knee swollen and stiffened, so that I could not
bend it but verv little. Up to the Ist of April, I was all
the time in suffering and pain ; I rubbed with your Rheu
matic Liniment my limbs three times, and was the next
morning enabled to descend a long fight of steps, with
out aid of crutch or stick, and back to my room—l could
also bend my kr.ee and bring it up to the chair, which
the previous day, I could not have done if my life had de
pended on it. I could also use, open and bend my ling
ers, wich was an imbossibility the day before. 1 rose in
the morning from my bed entirely relieved of pain. I
used one bottle and an eight ounce vial of your Rheu
matic Liniment, and in ten days, I was relieved. I
would not have been in the condition which I had been,
ton days before I called on you, for any amout of money
which could be given me; for what is life worth when
in constant pain and misery ! I consider your Rheumat
ic Liniment, the most valuable medicine in the world. I
am, dear sir, your friend.

Dear Sir—My negro woman Patience, a cook, had a
stilffneck from a painful Rheumatic affection, for six or
seven years, and could not turn her neck except with the
body. I was induced to purchase a bottle ot your Lin
iment, which was applied in August or September of

Dr. de Graffenried—Dear Sir: Having been afflicted,
for some time past, with a severe attack of Rheumatism,
and having heard of the wonderful effects of your Rheu
matic Liniment, I was induced to try a bottle of it; and
after three days, I was so much relieved as to be able to
leave the liou.-e and I have perfect
re •overed from clieertully
eoimncud tile Liniment to ate afflicted,
GEORGE H( street.
Columbus Ga., Oct. 13,1849.
Dr. E. L. de Graffenried—Dear sir: Agreeable to
vour request, I give my testimonial as to the virtue of
your Liniment in the cure of Rheumatism. Being at
tacked in one joint of my finger, last winter, with acute
Rheumatism, and haying used many of the unnumbered
prescriptions for its cure, with but little benefit, I made
application of two bottles of your Liniment,
happy to say relieved me in a very short time. I can re
commend its use to all persons affected in like manner.
Very respectfully, F. S. CHAPMAN.
I can testify to the efficacy of Dr. de Graflenried’s
Rheumatic Liniment in the case of Mr. F. S. Chapman,
as it came under my immediate observation.
October 13,1849. R. A. WARE, M. D.
Dear sir—Some time in January last, Mrs. McKee
was taken very ill with Inflammatory Rheumatism in her
shoulder joints, extending to her elbow joint and
arm, which disabled her from using her arm almost en
tirely ; and from the pain, want of sleep, and great rest
lessness, for not less than six weeks, I was iuduced by
my friend, Mr. Luke Reed, to call on you for a bot
tle of your Liniment, and by using half the bottle, she
was entirely relieved, and the reliet was manifest or sen
sible after three or four rubbings. lam of opinion, it is
one of the most valuable remedies that has ever been dis
covered, for Rheumatism : that is, from my own knowl
edge, and that which I have heard from others.
Dr. E. L. do Graifenried. H. C. McKEE.
Columbus, Oct. 19th 1849
Dr. de Graffenried—Dear sir: I take pleasure in sav
ing, I have a l>oy who was so badly afflicted with Rheu
matism, that he could not raise his hand to his head, and j
had nearly lost the use of his arm. I used the fourth of
a bottle of your Rheumatic Liniment, which relieved
him entirely. I consider it a most valuable remedy for
the cure of Rheumatism.

Their ptreer over the above diseases is not excell
ed, if equalled, by auy other preparation in the
United States, as the cares attest, in many cases
•.J'ter skilful physicians had failed.
These Bitters are worthy tn* attention of invalids.—
Possessing great virtues in the rectification of diseases of
the Liver and lesser glands, exercising the most search
ing powers in weakness and affections of th* digestive
organs, they are, withal,safe, certain and pleasant.
Head and be Convinced.
Cha*. Robinson, Esq., Easton, Md.,i a letter to Dr.
Jackson, Jan. 9, 1850, said—
“My wife and myself havo received more benfit from
your medicine than any ether we have ever taken for the
Dyspepsia and Liver disease.”
“The Tenth Legion,” published at Woodstock, Va.,
January 10, 1850, said—
“A Great Medicine.”
“We have uniformly refrained from recommending to
the public any of the various patent medicines of the
day, unless thoroughly convinced of their value. —
Among those we consider worthy of notice is the
German Bitters, invented by Dr. Ilooffand, asd
prepared by Dr. Jackson, in Philadelphia. One in
stance in particular, in which the superior virtues j
of this medicine have been tested, lias fallen under I
1 !
our observation. During the last summer, a son of
?>lr. Abraham Crabill, of this county, was very se
riously afflicted with Liver Complaint, and after trying
in vain various remedies, lie purchased a bottle of the
Bitters, and after using it, was so much relieved of
his distressing malady, that he procured another bot
tle, and is restored entirely to health.”
Read Further a Few Facts.
The ‘‘Philadelphia Democrat,” the leading Ger
man journal of Philadelphia. The editor said, No
vember 24th :
“We again call attention to the removal of flu.
German Medicine Store, the principal depot for the
sale of Dr. Iloofland’s German Bitters, from 278
Pace to 120 Arch street, one door below Sixth.—
Owing to the increased demand for this medicine,
and for the accommodation of his numerous patients,
Dr. Jackson has been compelled to occupy a larger
store. We wish him success in his new quarters ;
he is deserving it The Bitters Mixture is without
doubt the greatest medicine extant for diseases of the
Liver and Bowels. A stubborn case of Chronic
Diarrhoea has come tinder our notice, wherein the
patient had exhausted the Materia Medieas of the
different schools of medicine with no apparent benefit,
lie was induced to use these bitters, and a few bottles
of them have entirely cured him. Many such cases
w could refer to. We hope our readers will recol
lect this great restorative, should they be so unfortu
nate as to require its use. Dr. Jackson possesses tba
original unpublished receipt of Dr. Iloofland, and
he prepares this medicino with care. Those pur
chasing should call at his store, or see that his name
is written upon the wrapper outside, and blown in tlic
bottle, as imitations of good articles are common.”
Judge M. M. Noah, a gentleman with great sci
entific and literary attainments, said in his “New
York W eeklv Messenger,” January 6, ISSO :
“Dr. Iloofland's German Bitters. —Here is a pre
paration which the leading presses in the Union ap
pear to be unanimous in recomending, and the rea
son is obvious. It is made after a prescription furnished
by one of the most celebrated physicians of modern
times, the late Dr. Christopher Wilhelm Iloofland.
Professor to the University of Jena, Private Physician
to the Kingof Prussia, and one of the greatest medi
cal writers Germany- has ever produced. He was
emphatically the enemy of humbug , and therefore a
medicine of which lie was the inventor and endorser
may b* perfectly relied on. ll* specially recommend
ed it in Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Debility, Vertigo,
Acidity of the Stomach, Constipation, and all com
plaints arising from a disordered condition of the
stomach, the liver mid the intestines. Nine Phila
delphia papers express their conviction of its excel
lence, and several of the editors speak of its effects
from their own individual experience. Under these
circumstances, we feel warranted not only in calling
the attention of our readers to the present proprietor’s
(Dr. C. M. Jackson’s) preparation, but in recom
mending the article to all afflicted.”
More Evidence.
The “Philadelphia Saturday Gazette,” the best
family newspaper published in the United-States, the
editor says of
DR.HOOFLAND’S GERMAN BITTERS.
“ It is seldom that we recommend what are termed
Patent Medicines to the confidence and patronage of
our readers; and, therefore, when we recommend Dr.
Iloofiand's German Bitters, we wish it to be distinct
ly understood that we are not speaking of the nos
trums of the day that arc noised about for a brief period
and then forgotten after they have done their guility
race of mischief, but of a medicine long established,
universally prized, .and which has met the heatty ap
proval of the Faculty itself.”
Evidence upon evidence has been received (like
the foregoing) from all sections of the Union, the last
three years, and the. strongest testimony in its favor
is, that there is more of it used in the practice of the
regular Physicians of Philadelphia than all other nos
trums combined, a fact that can easily be established,
and fully proving that a scientific preparation will
meet with their quiet approval when presented even
in this form.
That this medicine will cure Liver Complaint and
| Dyspepsia, no one can doubt, after using it as direct
ed. It acts specifically upon the stomach and liver—
it is preferable to calomel in all bilious diseases —the
effect is immediate. They can be administered to
female or infant with safety and reliable benefit, at
any time.
. Beware of Counterfeits -
This medicine has attained that high character
which is necessary for all medicines to attain to in
duce counterfeiters to put forth a spurious article at
the risk of the lives of those who are innocently de
ceived.
Look well to the Marks of the Genuine.
They hare the written signature of C. M. JACK
SON upon the wrapper, and the name blown in the
bottle, without which they arc spurious.

The Faculties, for intellectual abilities, moral worth j
and professional acquirements, will compare favorably |
with the most distinguished in our country. The modi- !
cal faculty constitutes an anomaly in this or any other !
eountry—all of them are able lecturers and the best of j
teachers.
Those who contemplate our geographical position,
and the extent of our population, can have no doubt as
to the eligibility of our situation for an enterprise of the
kind. As to health, including all seasons of the year,
we deny that any other city has more.
A common error exist'in the minds of many students
relative to the place of studying medicines: those who
intend practicing among the diseases of the West and
South should certainly educate themselves at a school
whose Faculty ar* particularly acquainted with those
diseases.
That the public may he satisfied of the permanency of
this school, we feel it our duty to state, that the Tru
tees and Faculty form a unit in action, which augur*
well fur its future success ; and that the peculiar internal
organization which connects them, cannot Ire interrupted.
