The Parson and the Boxer.
BY BAM SLICK.
Yes, said Mr. Slick, Father John was
tight; these antagonizing chaps ought to be
well quilted, the whole rail of ’em. It fairly
makes me sick to see the folks, each on ’em a
backin’ up of their own man. At it again,
says one; fair play, says another; stick it
into him, says a third; and that’s your sort,
says the fourth. Them are the folks who do
mischief. They show such clear grit it fairly
frightens me. It makes my hair stand right
up on end to see ministers do that are. It
appears to me that I could write a book in
favor of myself and my notions, without wai
tin’ i any one, and if I couldn’t, I wouh n’t
write at all, I swore. Our old minister, Mr.
Hopewell, (a real good man, and a larned
man, too, that,) they sent to him once to
write agin the Unitarians, for they are agoin’
ahead like statice in New England, but he
refused. Said he, Sam, says he, when I first
went to Cambridge, there was a boxer and
wrastler came there, and he heat every one
wherever he went Well, old Mr. I’ossitt
was the Church of England parson at
Charlestown, at the time, and a terrible pow
erful man he was—a real sneezer, and as ac
tive as a weazel. Well, the boxer met him
one day, a little way out of town, a takin’ of
his evenin’ walk, and, said he, Parson, says
he, they say you are a most plaguy strong
man, and uncommon stiff, too. Now, says
be, I never see’d a man yet that was a match
for me; would you have any objection jist to
let me be availed of your strength here in a
■friendly way, by ourselves, where no soul
would be the wiser; if you will, I'll keep
dark about it, I swan. Cos your way, said
the Parson, and tempt me not; you are a
carnal-minded, wicked man, and l take no
pleasure in such vain, idle sports. V cry well,
said the boxer; now here I stand, says he, in
the path, right slap afore you; if you pass
round me, then I take it as a sign that you
nre afear’d on me, and if you keep the path,
why then you must first put me out —that’s a
fact. The Parson jist made a spring forrard
and hitched him up as quick as wink and
throwed him right over the fence whap on the
broad of his back, and then went on as if
nothin’ had happened—as demure as you
please, and lookin’ as if butter wouldn’t melt
in his mouth. Stop, said the boxer, as soon
us he had picked himself up, stop, Parson,
said he, that’s a good man, and jist chuck ov
er my horse, too, will you, for I swan I be
lieve you could do one near about as easy as
t’other. My ! said he, if that don’t bang the
hush; you are another guess chap from what
I took you to be, any how.
Now, said Mr. Hopewell, says he, I won’t
write, but if arry a Unitarian crosses my path,
I’ll jist over the fence with him in no time, as
the Parson did the boxer; for writin’ only ag
gravates your opponents, and never convinc
es them. I never seed a convart made by
that way yet; but I’ll tell you what I have
see’d, a man set his own flock a doubtin’ by
his own writin’. You may happify your en
emies, cantankerate your opponents, and in
jure your own cause by it, hut I defy you to
sarve it. These writers, said he, put me in
mind of that are boxer’s pupils. He would
sometimes set two on ’em to spar; well,
they’d put on their gloves, and begin, larfin’
and jokin’, all in good humor. Presently one
on ’em would put in a very hard blow ; well,
t’other would return it in airncst. Oh, says
the other, if that’s your play, off gloves and
at it; and sure enough, away would fly* their
gloves, and at it they’d go, tooth and nail.
No, Sam, the misfortin’ is, we are all apt
to think Scriptur’ intended for our neighbors,
and not for ourselves. The poor all think it
made for the rich. Look at that are Dives,
they say, what an all fired scrape he got into
by his avarice with Lazarus ; and ain’t it writ
as plain as any thing, that them folks will
find it as easy to go to Heaven as for a camel
to go through the eye of a needle ?
Well, then, the rich think it all made for
the poor—that they sharnt steal nor bear
false witness, but shall be obedient to them
that’s in authority. And as for them are Un
itarians, and he always got his dander up
when he spoke of them, why there’s no do
in’ nothin’ with them, says he. When they
get fairly stumped, and you produce a text
that they can’t get over, nor get round, why
they say it tante in our version at all—that’s
an interpolation, it’s an invention of them are
everlastin’ monks; there’s nothin’ left for you
to do with them, but to serve them as Parson
Possit detailed the boxer—lay right hold of
’em and chuck ’em over the fence, even if
they were as big as all out of doors. That’s
what our folks ought to have done with ’em at
first, pitched ’em clean out of the state, and
let ’em go down to Novia Seotin, or some
such outlandish place, for they ain’t fit to live
in no Christian country at all.
Fightin’ is no way to make convarts; the
true tcay is to win ‘em. Yon may stop a
man’s mouth, Sam, says he, by a cram min’ a
hook down his throat, hut you won’t convince
him. It’s a fine thing to write a book all
covered over with Latin, and Greek, and He
brew, like a bridle that’s real jam, all span
gled with brass nails, but who knows wheth
er it’s right or wrong ? Why notone in ten
thousand. If I had my religion* to choose,
and warn’t able for to judge for myself, I’ll
tell you what I’d do ; I’d jist ask myself who
leads the best lives ? Now, says he, Sam. I
won’t say who do, because it would look like
vanity to say it was the folks who hold to
our platform, but I’ll tell you who don’t. It
ain’t them that make the greatest professions
always; and mind what I tell you, Sam, when
you go a tradin’ with your clocks away down
east to Novia Scotia, and them wild provinc
es, keep a bright look out on them as cant
too much, for a long face is plaguy apt to
cover a long conscience —that’s a fact.
Put it to Him like a Gentleman.
A few days since, a young gentleman of
our city, holding somewhat of a prominent
position among the “ young men of wit and
fashion about town,” and who, with his’other
accomplishments, possesses some acknowl
edged skill in the “ manly art of self-defence,”
was showing half a dozen of his southern
friends, who were on a visit to our city, the
“ lions” of the town. Amongst other places
of fashionable resort for the “ bloods,” he in
troduced his friends into Mr. ’s gymnas
ium rooms, in street, where he found
what appeared to him a very “verdant”
youth, endeavoring to go through some diffi
cult gymnastic exercises, but was exceeding
ly blundering in all his efforts.
After looking quietly on at the appareut
awkward manner of the supposed “green’un”’
our young gentleman stepped up and address
ed the supposed countryman, as follows:
My friend, you do not appear to und rstand
orcity notions for exercise.” “Not exact
ly,” replied the stranger, H Afloiv me to show
you, as there is somewhat of a sleight of hand
in doing these things,” said the young gentle
men, with an air of self-importance; and af
ter pulling off his white kids, stretching him
self, he went through many of the exercises
iti a very handsome manner, displaying great \
strength and quickness; and after explaining
to the stranger what he termed the modus op
erands he continued, “iny friend, perhaps
vou would like to take a few lessons in spar
ling?” To which the stranger replied, “I j
would not object if you won’t strike hard !
A pair of boxing gloves was then handed him,
and after putting them on, and hitting the in
together a number of times, lie said, “ W ell,
I don’t think there is much danger of hurting a
fellow with these stuffed mittens ! when both
par ies soon struck an attitude of defence, and i
after the vounggentleman had rushed the stran
ger round the room a number of times, hitting
out first right, then left, each of which were
either “ stopped,” or “ dodged,” when our ;
voung hero made a “ feint” with his right,
and letting fly his left, giving, as supposed,
his antagonist a “ stunner” under the but ot
the ear, as he fell heavily ; but soon recover
ng himself, and after brushing the dust from ■
his clothes, reinaiked to the young gentleman, |
“my friend, don’t you play a leetle rough ?”
The young gentleman begged the stranger’s
pardon, shook hands with him, and assured
him he did not intend to give so heavy a blow,
and in the future would spar lighter. They
soon came into “position” again; the stranger,
as before, appearing as though he was amaz
ingly afraid of the “ stuffed mittens!” as he
jumped about like an India rubber ball, and
dodged like a game cock with both eyes out.
Soon, however, the young gentleman thought
he had an opportunity of throwing in a settler,
and “struck out from the shoulder” a tre
mendous blow, and, as before, over went the
stranger; who, on regaining his feet once
more, showed much warmth of feeling, say
ing, “he did not bargain to be knocked round
in that rough manner?” “ However,” he
continued, “ I wouldn’t mind taking one
more round!” And after the young gentle
man had settled and shrugged up his .-bould
ers a number of times, with an air of sell
consequence, they walked up to the chalk for
the third time, the stranger saying, he believ
ed he had learned the modus operandi of the
thing, as he at once commenced cuffing our
young hero, not only on both ears, but occa
sionally rubbing his nose with the glove to
such an extent that his Southern friends at
once burst into a tremendous shout < f laugh
ter, that so mortified his vanity, he rushed in,
letting fly first left, then right, and the stran
ger “ countered,” and my young hero sup
posed that, he had knocked the stranger into
the “ middle of next week.” What was his
surprise on seeing his antogonist turn two
back summersets, pulling off the gloves as he
was spinning in the air!
The truth was, the supposed green ’un per
ceived that the young gentleman wished to
“ show off” his skill in sparring to his South
ern friends, and he was disposed to learn the
modus operandi himself, at the same time, as,
when the young gentleman supposed he had
given a “ stinging’’ as well as a settling “ hit,”
it was so neatly dodged by the “stranger,”
who, at the same instant dropped, that the
young gentleman was led into the delusion
that the tremendous force of his blow had
knocked over his antagonist!
At this moment, Mr. , the proprietor of
the gymnasium, came in, and approaching the
supposed “ green ’un” took him cordially by
the hand, saying, “How have you been, Mr.
Ravel ? lam most happy to see you!” The
supposed “green ’un”’ was no less a person
age than the celebrated Antoine Ravel / who
stepped into the room to examine the gymnas
tic apparatus.
The chagrin of the young gentleman ‘can
be imagined, as he rushed from the room
amidst shouts of laughter, taking an oath he
never again would spar with a stranger. We
regret to hear that lie has not been seen in the
city since, and it is supposed he has taken up
his residence for the sunnnet on Apple Island,
in Boston harbor.— Boston Post.
[From the Phrenological Almanac for 1850.]
Kindness and Cruelty Contrasted,
A vicious ox will set a whole yard of cat
tle to goring each other, down to the hornless
calf, which will vent his excited wrath on the
cosiest sheep or a simple turkey gobler. The
leader of a file of mules, a mile in length, is
stung by a fly in the flank; he kicks the
shins of his follower, who raps the one behind
him, and so it goes to the end of the caval
cade. Each kicks his successor because he
feels the smart from his predecessor’s heels.
That same vicious ox might set the whole
caressing each other, by simply reaching
forth his tongue, and commencing the work
of amiable kindness. There are few ani
i mals which may not be subdued to man’s
1 will and wishes by kind treatment. “The
Elephant, with a gentle hand, may be led by
a hair.”
Men and children have feelings similar to
those of the ox, mule, and calf, which may
be aroused or allayed in like manner.
“John, you lump of laziness, go to work !”
makes John feel sour, lessens his hope of
pleasing, lowers his self respect, awakens a
spirit of opposition, and he becomes an eye ser
vant—a kind of unwilling cart horse in the
discharge of his duties.
“Come, John, let the work go ahead ; you
are the boy to make it fly,” awakens the am
bition of John ; makes him feel that he is ap
preciated as being capable of doing right;
although he feels lazy, yet it does not seem to
be known, he is said t 6 be able to do well, j
and he feels encouraged to keep up his repu
tation ; his hope is inspired; his love of pleas
ing and kind feeling is awakened; and he
leaps into his business with a right good will,
and by habit becomes industrious, and by
kind treatment obliging.
“Frank, you villain, what did you do that!
for! you are perfectly hateful; I’ll flog you
smartly if you repeat it,” touches Frank’s
pride, and awakens his anger. He knows he
is noisy and playful, but he is not conscious
of any villainous intention, and did not mean
to be hateful. He feels slandered, and con
sequently indignant; and the threatened flog- 1
ing, which is to disgrace him, he regards as !
unjust, and he resolves to fight his way i
through. He feels that the treatment is hu- i
miliating and cruel, and he loses his self re- I
spect and ambition to do well; becomes
quarrelsome and hateful.
“Frank, my son, will you play more quiet- 1
ly, and not turn over the chairs! The yard,
or the street, is a better place to play horse I
than the parlor; men drive horses out of
doors,” convinces the judgment of Frank that ‘
his thoughtlessness, roughness and rudeness ‘
are out of place in the parlor, and the moth- J
er’s kind tone of voice evinces no anger, and I
arouses none in him, and he complies, with
alacrity, with the mild and reasonable re- !
quest,
“There, Sarah, goes another dish, and the i
milk on the table cloth and carpet; take that!
slap in the face, and see if you can mind j
what you are about,” makes Sarah angry, for j
she tried to be careful; the cup slipped hi her j
little hand. She feels unconscious of inten
tional wrong; and anger, grief, and wound
ed sensitiveness make her timid, discouraged
and unhappy. Every time she attempts to
handle what will break or spill, excites her
fear: and her agitation of mind and trembling
hand make her ten times more likely to meet
with accidents; and she prefers a tin cup and
a seat in the chimney corner, where neither
breaking nor spilling will be mortal sin.
“.Sarah, my daughter, don’t cry; never
mind the cup, the cloth or the carpet. \ou
did not mean to do it, I am sure, and crying
never mends a cup nor cleans a carpet. ‘Nev
er erv for spilled milk.’ If yon will be more
careful in the future, as I trust, you will avoid
all such trouble. There is another cup, and
nice milk; wipe off the tears and be happy
again.” Sarah smiles through her tears;
takes her fresh cup of milk with a firm, con
fident, courageous, reassured hand; and re
joices in her strength and acquired cautious
ness and skill. She is certainly made happi
er bv the kind treatment; and the cup, cloth,
and carpet are not more hopelessly damag
ed than if the child’s happy nature had been
scarred and defaced by unkindness.
A Reprehensible exhibition.
Ephraim Littlefield, the late Janitor of
the Massachusetts Medical College, in Bos
ton, whose testimony on the trial of Prof.
Webster did more to procure the conviction,
and of course, the death of that wretched
culprit, than all the rest, and who in conse
quence received three thousand dollars re
ward from the family of the murdered man,
is now at Clinton Hall, in this city, exhibit
ing a model of the building which was the
scene of the crime, describing its localities
and incidents, and recapitulating the evidence
given by him on the trial, together with sun
dry private anecdotes, explanations, com
ments and opinions, with regard to the hor
rible affair. Accompanying trie model are
full length wax figures, representing the mur
derer and the murdered, the features of
whoso faces are imitated with a sufficient
nearness to nature to give the spectator a
ghastly idea of their appearance while alive.
These figures are dressed in semblances of
“the customary suits of black” the originals
were wont to wear, and present that awk
ward and unnatural appearance which such
tilings always do. The far-famed Madame
Tussaud, of London, in her “Chamber of
Horrors,” could not have a more repulsive
group than that now polluting the hall of the
Mercantile Library Association, in the Clin
ton buildings. But when to its execrable
ness is added the disgusting sight of a man
having occupied and occupying the situation of
this Mr. Littlefield, in relation to the affair,
showing up, and (with occasional facetiae
thrown in by way of heightening its interest,)
explaining the scene, every well-regulated
mind shrinks with instinctive horror from the
exhibition, and refuses to believe that it can be
a popular one with his kind. We hope it
will not. The subject of the Parkman mur
der has agitated this community, now, for ve
ry nearly a whole year. The horrible deed
| has been fearfully avenged by the stern arm
jof the law. Both the murdered man and
the murderer have gone to their account, and
“nothing can touch them more.” But there
are survivors of both whose feelings have
been cruelly lacerated for all those long
months, during which their life has been but
one continued scene of intense suffering and
grief. It is time that they should be relieved
as far as maybe; and he is not worthy the
name of man who can deliberately add
another pang to those already so keenly felt
by the delicate, the sensitive, the innocent
sufferers in this matter. For the sake of our
common humanity, then, we cannot but ex
press the hope that this repulsive exhibition
will not be countenanced by the people of
this city, nor by those of any part of our
common country. — Express.
Barnnm and Jenny Lind.
On the day of the first concert Mr. Bar
man informed the fair Swede that her share
of the concert would not be less than $lO,-
000, and probably be much more, whereupon
Jenny in the excellence of her heart at once
determined to give it all to charity. Mr.
Barnum, who, with an eye to business, at
once perceived how many “charily concerts'’
could be saved by this move, was delighted
at this generous proposal, and told the lady,
that he would, if called before the audience,
announce the fact. At this proposition, the
modest charity of M’lle. Lind at once re
volted, and she distinctly requested him not
to do so. Her lawyers were called, and the
SIO,OOO were at once disposed of to twelve
different charities, after the manner which
has already been published.
Evening came, and in time the concert
came to an end, and Mr. Barnum, (having
previously given the particulars of donations
i to gentlemen of the press,) could not resist
the temptation of announcing the fact, and
reading a full statement of the donations,
much to the chagrin of Mile. Li:.d.
And now comes the cream of the joke.—
Quite a number of the high st priced seats
had been purchased by irresponsible persons,
and had never been called or paid for, and
for once Mr. Barnum had “counted chickens
before they were hatched.” Miss Lind’s
share of the receipts instead of amounting
to SIO,OOO or over, as he had fondly hoped,
turned out to he about S7OOO, and there was
a considerable deficiency between that sum
and the sum already given away in charity.
Mr. Barnum, his heart overflowing with
charity, repaired to “that angel,” and in
formed her of the melancholy fact that he
wanted about S3OOO from her, to make up
the sum of her donations.
“I gave away all my share of the concert,”
said the Nightingale, “what more do you
want?”
“But, my dear Miss Lind, there are not
SIO,OOO which you appropriated, and which
I publicly announced, and had published.—
\ ou must fulfil your—ah, I beg pardon— our
promises.”
“And so they shall be fulfilled, and you
will fulfil them. Hark ye, Mr. Barnum,”
and the fair Swede’s eyes lighted up with the
fires of charity, “you have made this an
nouncement, have given publicity to this af
fair, have made a boast of my charity to
answer your business purposes,and have dis
tributed money for me, before I had it, and
now you will pay all you have promised, for
my name shall not be sacrificed by these
short comings, neither will I give more than
my receipts.”
Barnum. “But what are we to do ? I
can’t pay it out of my own pockets. I nev
er ”
Lind. “Oh, yes, you will be charitable,
for I know you are—(as she said this a most
expressive smile lit up her countenance) — j
and you will pay 7 this small deficit.”
Barnum. “Butl can’t; I won’t! I never
did such a thing ”
Lind. “But you will this time, or our
contract is at an end. I will give concerts
on iny own account, and you may sue me
for damages.”
And Barnum had to consent; but he has
kept his own charity a profound secret, while
Jenny—glorious Jenny—has never yet stop
ped teUing the story or laughing over it.—
Barnum swears it was the first time a wo
man got the better of him in a “matter of bu
siness.”—N. Y. Sunday Despateh.
Grief ennobles. He who has not suffered,
can never have thought or felt.
Dr. deGRAFFENRIED’S
CELEBRATED
RHEUMATIC LINIMENT.
Ix int roducing this medicine to the people of the Unit
ed State-, for sale, the proprietors hen leave to submit
the following statement of Dr. de Grafienried, its discov
erer and inventor:
The undersigned frankly states that he has prescribed
this medicine lor the last twenty-two years, in all tonns
of Acute and Chronic Rheumatism, with a success un
paralleled in the annals of medicine : and he lias no hes
itation in saying,, that it is decidedly the most valuable
remedy ever yet discovered for the relief of this most pain
ful and di.-tre.-sing malady.
His note-book contains upwards of three hundred ca
ses, in which it has been used within the above named
period, and in no single instance has it corne to his knowl
edge, of its having tailed to effect a cure when persereved
in. Many of the cases were from tour to ten years stand
ing : and what may appear yet more remarkable and ex
traordinary, is, 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 ot itsre
turn.
All he would ask for this remedy is a fair, impar
tial and patient trial, for the results he entertains no ap
prehension.
Up to tha time of this discovery, the undersigned had
well studied the origin,progress, and character ot this dia
ease,and is well assured, had consulted every author on
its treatment, who had written or been translated into
the English language, and had used all the remedies of
any notoriety then in vogue with the profession, with
however, very rarely any relief to poor suffering hu
manity.
It has baffled the skill and science of the most eminent
Physicians and Surgeons of our own , and of every other
country. But the undersigned flatters himself that his
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, of relieving the human
family of a vast amount ofsuffering.

Col. A. B. Ragan —Sir : It affords me great pleasure
to be able to hear testimony to the efficacy and virtues
of Dr. de Graffenrieds Rheumatic Liniment.
I have been sorely afflicted for the last ix years with,
what I believed to be, and what eminent Physicians of
this city pronounced, Rheumatic gout,for several winters
past 1 have been confined to my room and bed nearly all
the time. In January last, I had an attack as violent if
not more so than usual, which prostrated me for about
three weeks; on your recconunendation I commenced
the use of this Liniment. (With I must confess hut little
faith). Its effects were astonishing and decidedly bene
ficial from its first application. In a few days my back,
wrists ancles were entirely relieved (and so coutin
uc) of all soreness, pains, and the swelling's reduced,
.with the use of less than one bottle. I 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 I have ever met
with. And most cheerfully recommend its use to all
who may he afflicted with it.
Respectfully Yours, N. W. BRIDGES.

Dr. de Graff envied — 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 be
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. I 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
and searely 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 Linainent, 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 medecinc.—
Wishing you all the Blessings you deserve Dear sir.

Columbus Ga., Oct. 20, 1849
Dr. De Graffonried—Dear sir: I take pleasure in giv
ing you the particulars ofmy affliction by, and relieffrom
Rheumatism. During the spring of 134'4 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, 1845, with no satisfactory result whatever.
I was then induced, by a rheumatic acquaintance, to try
your Liniment, as something new, and which had cured
him ; and in one month, from the time I commenced the
application, I was well, and clear of the Rheumatism as
I ever was, and have continued so to this time.
Yours, truly, L. C. MORTON.
FROM COL. A. K. AYER.
Dr. E. L. de Graffenried—-Learning that vou are about
to manufacture for the public, your valuable Rheumatic
Liniment, I take pleasure in stating that I 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

A. K. AYER.
Columbus, October 30, 1349.
Dear Sir —About the first of April last, I came to Co
lumbus to get medical assistance, and was advised to
call on you, ns having a remedy that would afford me
speedy relief. I was taken down in January last, with
a violent attack of Rheumatism in nearly all iny joints
so badly, that I could not pull ofmy shoes without aid ;
nor could I ascend or descend steps, or pull off my
j clothes without assistance. My right arm and hand
1 were nearly useless ; the fingers contracted and swollen;
the right knee swollen and stiffened, so that I could not
bend it but very 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 knee 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 iny fing
ers, wich was an.imbossibility the day before. I rose in
the morning from my bed entirely relieved of pain. I
used one bottle and am eight ounce vial of your Rheu -
matic Liniment, and in ten days, I was relieved. I
would not have been in the condition which 1 had been,
ten 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.
J. H. SMITH.
Columbus, Nov. 1, 1349.
Dear Sir—My negro woman Patience, a cook, had a
stilff neck 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
i 1848. One bottle entirely relieved her and she now lias
j the use of her neck as well as ever she had ; and up to
this time, it has not returned.

Philadelphia, Feb. 1 1850.
Dr. de Graffenried—Dear Sir: Having been afflicted,
for some time past, with a severe attack of Rheumatism,
ami having heard of the wonderful effects of your Rheu
matic Liniment, 1 was induced to try a bottle of it; and
after three days, I was so much relieved as to be able to
leave the house and attend to business. I have perfect
ly recovered from the disease, and would cheerfully re
commend the Liniment to all those who are afflicted,
GEORGE HOOD, 27 Powell street.
Columbus Ga., Oct. 13,1849.
Dr. E. L de Graffenried—Dear sir: Agreeable to
your request, I give my testimonial as to the virtue of
your Liniment in the cure of Rheumatism. Being at
tacked in one joint ofmy 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, which I am
happy to say relieved me in a very short time. I can re
commend its use to all persons affei ted in like manner.
Very respectfully, F. S. CHAPMAN.
I can testify to the efficacy of Dr. de Graffenried’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, arid great rest
lessness, for not less than six weeks, I was induced by :
my friend,.Mr. Luke Reed, to cal! oh you for a bot
tle of your Liniment, and by using half the bottle, she
was entirely relieved, and the relief 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. de Graffenried. H. C. McKEE.
Columbus. Oct. 19th 1849
Dr. de Graffenried—Dear sir: I take pleasure in sav
ing, I have a boy who was so badly afflicted with Rheu
matism, that he could not raise his hand to his head, and
had nearly lost the use ofnis 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.

CELEBRATED GERMAN BITTERS,
PREPARED BY
DR. C. M. JACKSON,
GERMAN MEDICINE STORE,
No. 120, Arch St., Philadelphia.
Their power over the above diseases is lint excell
ed, if equalled, by any oilier preparation in the
United States, as the cures attest , in many cases
after skilful physicians had failed..
These Bitters are worthy ttio attention of invalids.—
Possessing great virtues in. the rectification of diseases o*
the Liver and lesser glands, exercising the most search
ing powers in weakness and affections of the digestive
organs, they are, withal,safe, certain and pleasant.
Head and be Convinced.
Chas. Robinson, Esq., Easton, Md.,in a letter to Dr.
Jackson, Jan. 9, 1850, said—
"My wife and myself have received more benfit front
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. lloofland, and
prepared by Dr. Jackson, in Philadelphia. One in
stance in particular, in which the superior virtues
of this medicine have been tested, has fallen under
our observation. During the last summer,a son of
Mr. Abraham Crabill, of this county, was very se
riously afflicted with Liver Complaint, and after trying
in vain various remedies, he 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.”
Head Further a Few Facts.
The “Philadelphia Democrat,” the leading Ger
man journal of Philadelphia. The editor said, No
vember 24th :
“Wer again call attention to the removal of tip,
German Medicine Store, the principal depot for the
sale of Dr. llooSand's German Bitters, front 278
Race 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 lam success in his new quarters ;
lie is deserving it The Bitters Mixture is without
doubt the greatest medicine extant for diseases of the
Liver ami Bowels. A stubborn case of Chronic
Diarrhoea lias come under our notice, wherein the
i patient had exhausted the Materia Mcdicns of the
different schools of medicine with no apparent benefit.
He was induced to use these bitters, and a few bottles
of them have entirely cured him. Many such cases
we could refer to. We hope our readers will recol
lect this great restorative, should they he so unfortu
nate as to require its use. Dr. Jackson possesses the
original unpublished receipt of Dr. lloofland, and
he prepares this medicine with care. Those pur
chasing should call at his store, or see that his name
is written upon the wrapper outside, and blown in the
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
i York Weekly Messenger,” January fi, 1850:
j 11 Dr. lloojtami's German Hitters. — Here is a pre
! paration which the lending presses in the Union ap
-1 pear to he unanimous in recoinending, and the rca
| 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 lloofland,
Professor to the University of Jena, Private Physician
i to the Kingof Prussia, and one of the greatest medi
cal writers Germany lias ever produced. He was
emphatically’ the enemy of humbug, and therefore a
medicine of which he was the inventor and endorser
may be perfectly relied on. He 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 and 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
j the attention of our readers to the present proprietor's
( Dr. C. M. Jackson’s) preparation, hut 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.
Hoofland's German Bitters, we wish it to be distinct
ly understood that we are not speaking of the nos
trums of the day that are noised about for a brief period
and then forgotten after they have done their guilitv
race of mischief, but of a medicine long established,
universally prized, and which has met the heaity 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 lie administered to
female or infant with safety aud 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 have the written signature of C. M. JACK
SON upon the wrapper, and the name blown in the
bottle, without which they are spurious.

Memphis, Tcnn., March, 1850.
The Faculties, for intellectual abilities, moral worth
and professional acquirements, will compare favorably
with the most distinguished in our country. The medi
cal faculty constitutes an anomaly in this or any other
country—all of them are able lecturers and tin* best ol
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 exists 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 are particularly acquainted with those
diseases.
That the public may be satisfied of the permanency of
this school, we feel it our duty to state, that the Trus
tees and Faculty form a unit in action, which augurs
well for its future success; and that the peculiar internal
organization which connects them, cannot be interrupted.
