THE COBBLER OF COBBSTOWN.
BY THOMAS |)UNN EXGMSII.
“ Rub-a-dub! rub-a-dub! Dub!”
The housewife suspended her labors to gaze
nto the road; the loungers at Bvine’s tavern
eaned over the porch, or strode out to the
pump to enjoy an uninterrupted view; the
blacksmith, whose shop was located next to
the tavern, dropped the foot of the horse he
was shoeing, and strained his vision in a vain
endeavor to penetrate the approaching cloud
of dust.
“Rub-a-dub! rub-a-dub! Dub!”
The coach approached nearer, and lo! upon
the same seat with the driver was n fat little
drummer, in regimental dress, who bowback
ed his noisy instrument zealously to the great
delight of the by-standers.
“Rub-a-dub! rub-a-dub! Dub!”
The dogs of the village assembled in town
meeting, by the tap of the drum, added their
voices to the music.
“ Bow-wurr-wow-wurr! Rub-a-dub! prr
rrrrrrn !”
The coach drew up to the tavern-door, and
stopped. The drummer drew himself up on
the seat and stopped also—and then dis
mounted, followed by the driver. The coach
then disgorged itself successively, of a long
legged lifer, with ferret eyes, and a nose of
milestone dimensions, six privates in uniform,
ft smart looking sergeant, and a captain, with
epaulettes and regimentals, all after the latest
army regulations. It was a very nice little
recruiting party, though what, in the name of
Mars and Bellona, brought them to Cobbs
town, puzzled the brains of the spectators.
There they were, however, there could be no
doubt of that; and the village poured out its
one hundred and fifty inhabitants to see them.
A crowd collected, but the captain, pressing
liis way through, nodded his head to the land
lord, and said, inquiringly —“Room for us i”
Receiving a nod in the affirmative, he said—
“ Show me my room. Sergeant Coxo, see
my baggage taken care of.”
“ Yes, sir,” replied the subaltern, and bis
superior officer left the press.
As soon as he had departed, a crowd col
lected around the sergeant, in the vain en
deavor to extract some information ; and the
little children peered in the faces of the strange
“ shojers,” to learn the whereabouts of their
origin. The efforts were unavailing—and
divers drinks in which the party indulged, at
the expense of the by-standers, bad no more
effect. The curiosity increased; and one
little, thin cobbler, with a face of hatchet
shape and tallow complexion, contrived to
scrape a familiar acquaintance with the long
fifer, and inveigle him on one side. What
their conversation was, no one knew —but it
resulted in the instant departure of the cob
bler, minus a half dollar, lawful currency,
which be had paid for the information ob
tained.
When the cobbler left the shop, bo started
straight to his home, and took from thence an
old rusty pistol, which he loaded to the muz
zle with powder and slugs. Hastily conceal
ing this about his person, lie took the road
leading from the centre of the village, be
tween Dr. Martin’s .and Squire Fleming’s
bouses, and travelled it with an energy and
speed truly wonderful. He looked like the
hurrying genius of famine; and as he went
muttered to himself constantly. Above these
muttcrings, the following words might have
been distinguished;
“I knew it—when old John Smith came
bore two years ago, I thought that there was
something suspicious about him. Ten thou
sand dollars reward! —half if I ketch him—bv
jingo ! won’t I do it?—the varmint—the obi
sneakin’ broadbrim —no more cobblin’—five
thousand dollars! My eyes!”—and the loud
“ my eyes!” found him at the end of his jour
ney. He turned off from the road, and
psssing up a narrow lane which led to a white
house, lie stopped at the door of the dwelling,
and asked for John Smith.
The girl who was standing on the step was
the only daughter of the one inquired for.
She was a very lovely young creature, about
the age of nineteen, with a very mild and
tender blue eye, and a very pale, but intelli
gent countenance. Her father was a very
respectable member of the Society of Friends,
and owned several valuable farms in the
neighborhood. He bad removed there from
Bucks county, in Pennsylvania, two years
before; and was known universally as a mild,
inoffensive and upright man. The daughter
was about to answer bis question, when her
father came from the barn, on the left of the
house, and turning to tho cobbler, said—
“ what’s wanting, friend Cobb ?”
“ Oh! you dodrotted, old sneakin’ varmint!”
Cried the cobbler, grasping him suddenly—
“you’ve nigh ’scaped justice; but you’ll git
your desarts now. Purty, long while you’ve
got off, for sartain. Come, go along with
me—Uncle Sam’s soldiers want ye! Come !”
and he made an effort to drag him off.
John Smith was a powerful and determin
ed man, as well as a very cool one; so he
merely shook off the gripe of tho cobbler,
and said quietly—“Curtius Cobb! I don’t
feel free to strike thee, as it is against the dis
cipline of our society; and Friends never do ,
such things; but if I didn’t think thee in I
liquor, or deranged in thy mind, thy face
would he apt to run against my fist Thee
had better go home and get sober.”
This cool speech exasperated the cobbler
almost to frenzy, and he replied in bis loud
est voice—“ You ’tarnul old rascal! you
aint a goin’ to git off so. There’s ten thou
sand dollars reward offered for you, and you
must go down to Byrne’s, where they’re a
waitin’ for you. If you don’t,” and hero ho j
presented the pistol, “ dodrot my skin, if I ;
don’t blow your cussed old brains out, right |
off the reel.”
The Quaker saw that cither there was
some strange mistake, or else the man was
crazy. A moment’s reflection told him that
the safest way would be to follow his captor. ;
If the first, it could be soon dissipated; if j
the second, the. lunatic would he more easily ,
captured in the village. So, bidding bis
daughter not to be alarmed, he quietly went
with Cobb, who kept a tight grasp on his !
coat-sleeve.
Mary was, however, thoroughly alarmed, !
and sending word for one of the men at work j
on the farm to follow, she started to over- !
take the couple who had departed, and did
so, just as they arrived at Dr. Martin’s front
gate. Here they met tho captain, who had
just crossed from Byrne’s, and Cobb exclaim
ed triumphantly, “ I got him, captain ; here’s
the old rascal. Half the reward’s mine, by
the livin’ jingo.”
But the captain took no notice of this.
He only saw the prisoner’s daughter, and
exclaiming, “why, Marv!” he was at her
side in an instant. She pointed to her hither.
He looked in surprise at the latter, and at the
cobbler, whose rude hold he shook off, and
asked what was meant bv all that he saw.
“It’s all plain enough,” cried Curtius Cobb,
“you are after die commandin’ gineral of the j
army, who’s deserted, and run away, and i
been livin’ here for two years, under the j
name of John Smith. Your fifer told me all
this, and you’re a coinin’ this game to cheat !
me out of my share of the reward. But it
aint to be did. Them five thousand dollais
is mine;” and lie smacked his hands together
with determination, “ 1 hat s the man joti re j
after, and you know it.” |
The crowd by this time took the joke, and j
began to show its enjoyment, by a loud lit ot |
laughter. That led the captain into the j
secret of Cobb’s credulity. He saw that toe .
waggish fifer laid perpetrated a hoax, and he j
was inclined to laugh. But there was Mary j
and Mary’s father, and he gave his arm to the.!
former, and walked homo with tho lattor, j
after giving directions to the sergeant to drive j
ofl’ Curtius Cobb, or get rid of him as pru
dence dictated.
There was a long talk that night in John
.Smith’s house, and the result of it may be
best told in old Smith’s words :
“ Why, Mary, when Charles Springly
came a courting thee, 1 told thee 1 would not
consent, nor will I yet. This was very
foolish. Thee should have known that I have
every regard for Charles here; but that the
discipline forbids me to give my consent to
thy marriage with ono out of Friends’ moot
ing. And thee might have known, that if
thee had got married, under such circum
stances, while I should have blamed thee for
violating Friends’ discipline, I should have
loved thee none the less for it, nor Charles
either. But as it is never too late to learn.
I’ll leave thee to talk with Charles. Cod
bless thee, Mary. Thee’ll make a good wife,
1 know, and one like thy dead mother. lam
sorry that Charles has taken up the trade of
war.”
“ I’ll leave that, sir, when I get married,”
said Charles, as the old Quaker left the room.
Os the result of their interview the reader
may well guess, and will only be desirous of
learning something more of the little cobbler
of Cobbstown. We are sorry that we can
not gratify such a laudable curiosity to any
extent. All we know is, that in a few days
after lie was missing. Where or how he
went is a matter of mystery, though a man
answering iiis description was seen the next
day after his disappearance, about twenty
miles from Cobbstown, travelling on the road
to the great West. As that was thirty-two
years since, and no trace has been found of
him, “ the oldest inhabitant,” from whom we
bad tho facts, concludes that he, the missing
member of shoes, has departed this life.
Settling the Question.
In a backwoods lyceum, a few evenings
since, the very original question, “Which is
the greater evil, Slavery or Intemperance ?”
was discussed. In the course of hss speech,
the first on the floor, spoke of the inhuman
treatment of the masters towards their slaves,
of the cruel punishments inflicted, alluding
particularly to one, well known, termed “cat
hauling.”
His onponent, whose appearance on the
occasion “must be seen to he real feed,” then
and there making of his terrestrial coil a lame
apology for perpendicularity, was delivered of
a lump of sublimity, of which the following is
a true and attested copy :
“Mr. President, spozin’ you was a wife to
somebody or other, and your husband should
come home drunk, and should slew you, and
should “beat you, and should maul you, and
should pound you? 1 say, Mr. President,
wouldn’t that be wuss than scratch-hanlin?”
We didn’t stay to hear the decision, but, of
course, the able debater “got hi* case.”
‘This reminds one of the Scotchman who,
a few years ago, called at the house of lawyer
Fletcher, of Vermont, to consult that legal
gentleman professionally. “Is the ’Squeer at
boom?” lie inquired of the lawyer’s lady, who
opened the door at his summons. He was
answered negatively.
Disappointment was now added to the
trials of Scotia’s son, but after a moment’*
consideration, anew thought relieved him.
“Mebbv yourself can gie me the necessary
information as weel as the ’Squeer—seem’ as
ye’re his wife?”
The kind lady readily promised to do so, if,
on learning tho nature of his difficulty, she
found it in her power, and the other proceeded
to state the case as follows :
“S’pose ye was an auld white mear, an’ 1
should borry ye to gang to mill, with grist on
ycr back, an’ we should get no farder than
Stair-hill, when, all at woonce,ye should back
up, and rear up, and pitch up, and keel down
backwards, and break yer dearned auld neck,
who’d pay for ye \ not I, dearu me if I would.”
The lady smilingly told him, as she closed
the door, that as he had himself passed sen
tence on the case, advice would be entirely
superfluous.
All Sorts of Paragraphs.
03” “I sav, Pat,” said a Yankee to an Irish
man, who was digging in his garden, “are
you digging out a hole in that onion bed ?”
“No,” said Pat; “I’m digging out the
earth and lavin’ the hole.”
03“ “IIow,” said Mr. Munsell to Mr.
ates, “do you accomplish so much in so
sliott a time ? .have you any particular plan !”
“I have. When I have any thing particular
to do, I go and do it.”
03” A housemaid sent to call a gentleman
to dinner, found him engaged in using his
tooth-brush. “Well, is he coming?” said the
lady of the house. “Yes, ma’am, directly,”
was the reply, “lie’s just sharpening his teeth.”
03” “Please take a half of this poor apple?”
said a pretty damsel to a witty swain the
other evening.
“No, 1 thank you : I would prefer a better
half.”
Eliza blushed, and referred him to “papa.”
03” At dinner, the other day, a wag, (a
very funny wag,) said, sitting opposite a lady
he observed that every time she crooked her
elbow her mouth opened!
ifr “Ob, my friend,” snid a doctor G.
to an Irish patient, “be composed—we must
all die once.” ‘•An’ it’s that vexes me,” re
plied Pat, “if I could die half dozen times,
I’d not care a hapennv about this now.”
03” A wit being asked what the word geni
us meant, replied, “If you had it in vou, you
would not ask the question; but as vou have
not, you will never know what it means.”
03” That man alone serves well his Maker
who dares stand firm for the right.
03” In training the understanding, take
care that the mind has a stout and straight
stem. Leave the flowers of wit and fancy to

03” The Albany Knickerbocker cannot
see what Philadelphians want with a school
of design for women, when they are design
ing enough already.
03” A negro was brought up before the
Mayor of Philadelphia a short time since for
stealing chickens. “Well, Toby,” said his
Honor, “what have you got to say for your
self?” “Nuffin’ but dis, boss: I was as crazy
as a bed-bug when I stole dat ’nr pullet, ooz
I might have stole de big rooster, and never
done it. Dat shows ’clusively to my mind
that I was laboring under the dclirum tre
mendus.”
A city buck visited the Shakers at
Lebanon some time since ; as be was wan
dering through the village, he encountered a
stout, hearty specimen of the sect, and thus
accosted him : “Well, Broadbrim, are you
much of a Shaker ?” “Nay, not much, but
I can do a little that way,” he replied. So
be seized the astonished man by the collar,
and nearly shook him out oi his boots.
Let a man form a friendship with a
woman, even though she be no longer young
and handsome, there is a tenderness attached
to it that no male friendship can know.

you can do to-day,” said an advising mother
to her child. “Well, then, mania, let us eat
the cranberry pie that’s in tho safe,” was the
child’s precocious reply.
03” America is one of the chief supports
of England. It is stated that the money
sent by Irish emigrants to their starving rela
tives equals the whole of the Irish poor rates.
Some two millions of the people of England
are supported by the American trade.

disfranchises duellists and their accessories,
and disqualifies them from holding office.
03” An honest farmer thus writes to the

“Gentlemen, please put me down on your

Finery and expenses above a man’s

are the ready road to poverty and want.
03“ The swaggerer is invariably an im
postor; the man who calls loudest for the
waiter, who treats him worst, and who finds
more fault than any one else in the room,
when the company is mixed, will always turn
out to be the man of ail others tlie least enti
tled, either by rank or intelligence, to give
himself airs. People who are conscious of
what is duo to then), never display irritability
or impetuosity; their manners insure civility,
their civility insures respect; hut the block
head or coxcomb, fully aware that something
more than ordinary is necessary to produce
an effect, is sure, whether in clubs or coffee
rooms, to be the most fastidious and captious
of the community, the most restless and irri
table amongst bis equals, the most cringing
and subservient before bis superiors.
03” Before the adjournment of the Vir

lution to the effect that power should be con
ferred on the Legislature to pass a law dis
criminating against all goods manufactured
in a non-slaveliol'ding State, by refusing a
license for the sale of such goods; and gave

CELEBBATED
RHEUMATIC LINIMENT,
Iv introducing this medicine to tho people of the Unit
ed States, for sale, the proprietor? beg leave to submit
the Ibibovum statement ot Dr. de Graffcnried, its discov
erer and inventor:
The undersigned frankly state? that he has prescribed
this medicine for the last twenty-two years, in all forms
of Acute and Chronic Rheumatism, with 4 success un
paralleled in the annals of medicine ; and he has no hes
itation in saying,, that it is decidedly the most valuable
remedy ever yetdiscovered for the reliefoftliis most pain
ful and distressing malady.
His note-book contains upwards of tin e? hundred ca
ses, in which it lias been used within the above named
period.and in no single instance lias it come to’ bis knowl
edge, of its having failed to effect a cure when persoreved
i in. Many of the cases were from four to ten ycarsstaud
i itur: and what may appear yet more remarkable and ex
traordinary, is, that when tho patient ha* been one# re
lieved, the disease is permanently cured, remains so, not
. a solitary instance having been reported to him of itsre
, turn.
! All he would ask for this remedy is a fair, impar
j tial and patient trial, f*r the results lie entertains no ap
prehension.
Up to th time of this discovery, the undersigned had
well studied the origin, progress, and character of this dis
ease,and i* well assured, had consulted every author *n
it* treatment, who had written or been translated int#
the English language, and had used all the. remedic* •(
any notoriety then in rogue 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
I country. Rut the undersigned flatters himself that his
I remedy will cure this most painful disease, when all oth
ers have failed, and that he shall have been an humble in
i stmmentin the hands of God, of relieving the lutnian
j family ofavast amount of suffering.

Col. A. B. Hagan —Sin : It affords me great pleasure
to be able to hear testimony to the efficacy and virtues
of Dr. de Graffe.nrie.ds Rheumatic. Liniment.
I have been sorely afflicted for the last six years with,
; what I believed to be, and what eminent Physicians of
this city pronounced, Rheumatic gout,for several winters
i past I 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
I three weeks; on your reccoinmendation 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 my hack,
wrists ancles were entirely relieved (and so contin
ue) of all soreness, pains, and tho swelling's reduced,
j 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 I have ever met
| with. And most cheerfully recommend its use to all
who may he afflicted with it.

Dear Fir—About the first of April last, I came to Co
lumbus to get medical assistance; and was advised to
call on you, as having a reine ly that would afford me
speedy relief. I was taken down in January last, with
a violent attack of Rheumatism in nearly all my joints
i so badly, that 1 could not pull of my shoes without aid ;
nor could I ascend or descend steps, or pull off my
clothe? without assistance. lMv right arm and hand
were nearly useless ; the fingers contracted and swollen; I
die right knee swollen and stiffened, so that I could not
1 end it but very little. l T p to the lt of April, 1 was all
the time in suffering and pain ; I nibbed with your Rheu
matic Liniment my limbs throe 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 my fing
ers, wich was an inibosribility tho day before. I roe in
j the morning from my bed entirely relieved of pain. I
j used one bottle and an eight ounce vial of your II lieu -
| inatie Liniment, and in ten days, I was relieved. I
! would not have been in the condition which 1 had been, ■
I ten days before I called on you, for any nmout of money j
■ which could bo given me : for what is lile worth when ;

Dr. da Graflenriod—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, 1 was induced fti try a bottle of it: and
after three days, I was so much relieved as to be ableto
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 Potccll street.
Columbus On.. Oet. 13,1519.
Dr. E. L. do Graflcnried—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 linger, 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 mo in a very short time. 1 can re
commend its use to all persons affected in like manner.
Very respectfully, F. 8. CHAPMAN.
I can testify to the efficacy of Dr. de Graflenried’s
Rheumatic Liniment in the ease of .Mr. F. 8. Chapman,
as it came under my immediate observation.
October 13, 1319. 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 vonr Liniment, and by using half the bottle, she
was entirelv relieved, and the relic!'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 Graffeuried. H. C. McKEE,
Columbus, Oct. 19th 1819
Dr. de Graflcnried—Dear sir: I take pleasure in say
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 of his arm. I used the fourfh of
a bottle ol your Rheumatic Liniment, which relieved
him entirelv. I consider it a most valuable remedy for
the cure, of Rheumatism.

Their power over the above disease* is not excell
ed, if equalled , by any other preparation in the
! United Slates, ns the cures attest, in many cases
after skilful physicians had failed.
i These Bitters are worthy the attention of invalids.—
i Possessing great virtues in the rectification of disease* of

Cltas. Robinson, Esq., Easton, Mi., in a letter to Dr.
Jackson, Jan. 9, 1850, said—
“My wife and myself have received more benfit from
vour medicine than any other we have ever taken for the
Dyspepsia and Liver disease.”
“ThTenth Legion,” published at Woodstock, Va.,
January 10, 1850, said—
“A Great Medicine.”
“We have uniformly refrained from recommending to
tiie public any of the various patent medicines ol the
day, unless thoroughly convinced of their value.—
j Among tliost we consider worthy of notice is the
| German Bitters, invented bv Dr. Ilootland, and
i prepared by Dr. Jackson, in Philadelphia. One in
stance in particular, is which the superior virtues
of this medicine have been tested,-has fallen under
our observation. During the last* summer,a son of
Mr. Abraham Crahill, 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 Ikvprocured another ket

Th* “Philadelphia Democrat,” the leading Ger
man journal of Philadelphia. The editor said, N--
vember 24th :
“We again call attention to the removal of tliv
German Medicine Store, the principal depot for the
sale of I)r. Hooflaml's German Bitters, from ”78
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 lias been compelled to occupy a larger
store. We wish him success in his new quarters;
he is deserving it Tito Bitters Mixture is without
doubt tlic greatest medicine extant for diseases of the
Liver and Bowels. A stubborn ease of Chronic
Diarrha'a has come under our notice, wherein the
patient had exhausted tho Materia Medicas of fit*
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 eases
we could refer to. We hope otir readers will recol
lect this great restorative, should they be so unfortu
nate as to require its use. Dr. Jackson possesses the
original unpublished receipt of Dr. lionfland, 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
York Weekly Messenger,” January 6, 1850:
“Dr. Ilootland's German Bitters. —Here is a pre
paration which the leading presses in the Union ap
pear to he unanimous in reeomending, and the rea
son is obvious. It is made after a prescription furnished i
by one of the most celebrated physicians of modern
times, tin lata Dr. Christopher “Wilhelm IToofland,
Professor to the University of Jena, Privata Physician
to the King of Prussia, and ona of the greatest medi
cal writers Germany has ever produced. He was
emphatically the enemy of humbug, and therefore a
medicine of which he was the inventor and endorser
may he perfectly relied on. II specially recommend
ed it in Liver Conqnaint, Dyspepsia, Debility, Vertigo,
Acidity of the Stomach, Constipation, and all com
plaints arising from a disordered condition of tho
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. Ujider 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.
Tli* “Philadelphia Saturday Gazett*,” 111* best
family newspaper published in th* United States, the
editor says of
DR. HOOFLAND’S GERMAN BITTERS.
“ It is seldom that we recommend what are termed
Fatent Medicines to the confidence and patronage of
our readers : and. therefore, when we recommend l)r.
j Iloofland's German Bitters, we wish it to be distinct
ly understood that we are not speaking of the nos
trums of the day tbht are 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 lias 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 be administered to
female or infant with safety and reliable benefit, at
sny 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.
Boole well to the Maries of the Genuine.
They have the written signature of C. 31. JACK-
SON upon the wrapper, and the name blown in the
bottle, without which they arc spurious.

A common error exists in the minds of many students
relative to the place of studying medicines; those who

whose. Faculty are particularly acquainted with those
diseases.
That the public may lie satisfied of the permanency of
