Till: IRISH SOLDIER.
Frederick of Prussia had a mania for en
listing gigantic soldiers into the Koval
Guards, and paid an enormous bounty to his j
recruiting officers for getting them. One |
day a recruiting sergeant chanced to spy a
Hibernian who was at least seven feet high; !
he accosted him in English, and proposed that
he should enlist. The idea of military life !
and large bounty so delighted Patrick, that
lie at once consented.
‘'But,” said the sergeant, “unless you can
speak German, the king will uot give you so
much.”
“Oh, he jabers,” fcaid the Irishman, “sure
it’s I that don’t know a word of German.”
“But,” said the sergeant, “a few words
will bo sufficient, and these you can learn in
a short time. The king knows every man in
the Guards, and as quick as he sees you, he
will ride up’ and ask you three questions:
First, his majesty will ask you how old you
jure; you will say twenty-seven—next, how
long you have been in service; you must re
ply, three weeks—finally, if you are provided
with clothes and ratious; you will answer
1 *4h.”
Patrick soon learned to pronounce his J
answers, but never dreamed of learning the
questions. In three weeks he appeared be
lore the king in review. His majesty rode
up to him. Paddy stepped forward with
“present arms.”
“How old are you 1” said the king.
“Three weeks,” said the Irishman.
“How long have you been in the service !”
asked his majesty.
“Twenty-seven years.”
“Am I or you a fool I” roared the king.
“Both,” replied Pat, who was instantly \
taken to the guard-house.

COMMODORE STOCKTON 1 S BAD
SPEECH.
The Hunterdon (.V. J.) Gazette is responsi
ble for the following story:
On the afternoon of the day of his election, j
Com. Stockton, feeling grateful for the honor i
| he had won, invited his friends to repair to
Cunningham’s Hotel, where he had liquors
l of all kinds at his disposal. A large number
accepted the invitation, and in the course of
: the exbilerating performances, the Commo- j
dore made quite a lengthy speech, in which
he promised to do a great many good things
for his constituents. At the close of the I
address, a rough-looking customer, whose j
face betokened him a devotee to the bowl, :
approached the new Senator, and slapping i
him familiarly on the shoulder, said, in an off
hand manner,
“That ere speech of vourn, Commodore, j
was decidedly a bad ’un !”
The Commodore, who thought, in . liis ‘
mind, that he had made the crack speech of
his life, was visibly confused and taken
aback at this unfavorable salute, and began
to mutter a variety of excuses, among which
such dejointed phrases as “rather unwell to- i
day,” “hand’s out at speechifying,” &c , were
quite prominent.
“Oh, well,” said liis tormentor, noticing
bis confusion and mortification, “it don’t
matter much ; the speech might have done on
an ordinary occasion—but the truth is, Com- i
modore, that on such a one as this ’ere, we i
ought to have short speeches and long
drinks!”
Anew light suddenly broke upon the 1
Commodore’s mind; and it is almost needless !
to add that with head erect and stately bear
ing, he immediately introduced liis philosoph
ical friend to the wines and “other fixins” i
usually comprised in a victor’s bill of fare.
A GOOD ON E.
County court was sitting not long ago,
in , on the banks of the Connecticut.
It was not far from this time of year—cold
weather, any how—and a knot of lawyers ;
had collected around the old Franklin, in the !
bar-room. The fire blazed, and mugs of flip ,
were passing away without a groan, when in I
eanie a rough, gauut-jooking “babe of the
woods,” knapsack on shoulder and staff in |
hand. He looked cold, and half perambu- j
lated the circle that hemmed in the fire, as ;
with a wall of brass, looking for a chance to !
warm his shins. Nobody moved, however, j
and unable to sit down for lack of a chair, !
he did the next best thing—leaned against 1
the wall, “with tears in his fists and his eves !
doubled up”—and listened to the discussion 1
on the proper way of serving a referee on a j
warrantee deed, as if ho were the judge to
decide the matter. Soon he attracted the j
attention of the company, and a young sprig j
spoke to him : “You look like a traveller.”!
“Wall, l s’pose I am —l come from Wisconsin 1
afoot, ’tany rate.” “From Wisconsin! j
That is a distance to go ou one pair of
legs. I say, did you ever pass through h—ll
on your travels ?” “Yiss, sir,” he answered
—a kind of wicked look stealing over his j
ugly phizmahogany—“l hen through the !
outskirts.” “I thought likely. Well, what |
are the manners and customs there? some of
us would like to know.” “Oh,” says the !
pilgrim, deliberately; half shutting his eyes, and >
drawing round the corner of his mouth till two
rows of yellow stubs with a mass of mastica
ted pigtail appeared through the slit in his
I cheek—“you’ll find them much the same as
in this region” —flic lawyers sal nighest the
fire. —Boston Post.
CREED AND CONDUCT.
To make speculative belief the rule abso- ;
lute of conduct, is not easy. The “flesh” re
bels and overpowers us. Yet even in defeat
the intellect vindicates its superiority, and
finds the best possible reason for its defeat.
A Spanish priest, once exhorting the soldiers
to fight like lions, added, in the ardor of en
thusiasm : “Reflect, my brethren, that who
soever falls to-day in battle, sups to-night in
Paradise.” Thunders of applause followed i
the sentiment.
The fight began, the ranks wavered, the
priest took to his heels, when a soldier, stop
ping him, reproachfully referred to the prom
ised supper in Paradise. “True, my son,
true,” ‘said the priest, “but I never eat sup
pers.”
THE PHILOSOPHY OF SPEED;
_\Yhen the celebrated engineer Brunnel,
who accomplished the desperate experiment
i of tunneling the Thames river, was brought
before a committee of the British Parliament,
he was asked if a speed of eighty miles per
hour on a certain railroad would be much
more dangerous to the traveller upon it than
a speed of forty.
“It would be just the same.” said he.
“And a speed of ninety miles?”
“Just the same.”
“And a speed of one hundred miles?”
“Just the same—for,” added he, “if the
cars should run off the track at the rate of
forty miles per hour, the passengers would j
all go to the d—l, and at one hundred miles
per hour, they could not conveniently go any
farther.”
A College Box Mot.—Our esteemed
young friend, G. W., of H College, sends
us a very clever bon-mot of a favorite math
! ematical professor in that flourishing institu
tution. It appears that the professor had an
old horse thut used to roam about the college
yard, and being connected, in the minds of
the freshmen, with the professor himself, he i
was always called “Conics.” One day, just
before recitation, a waggish student drew a
large caricature of the horse ou the black
board. and in between the ribs was written
“Conics” in large characters. The profes
sor called the first boy to the board, and said
“Take the cloth. James, and rub old ‘Conics’
down whieh figurative grooming was at
once performed.— Knick.

OCT The woht) “Depot.”— A writer in
the Christian Register saj s :
It is a cause of thankfulness that the su
perintendents of railroads have done what
they could to banish that oftentimes mis
pronounced word, “depot,” and to substitnte
the good English word “station.”
On this the Republic remarks:
We contribute our share of thanks to the
railroad managers for this change. In En
gland they designate the place where passen
gers on railroads enter and leave the cars as
a “terminus,” in France as an “emparcadere,”
(a point of embarcation and landing,) but
“station,” though derived from the Latin, has
1 the merit over all these of being a natural
ized foreigner. It is to be hoped that since
the Frenchman, Mr. Depot, has been banish
ed from the railroad, his brother, Mr. Entre
j pot, will he excluded from mercantile affairs, j
We think plain “warehouse,” or “mart,”
equally good, and more distinctive in their
respective meanings.
OCr A countryman was standing on one
| of the wharves the other day, watching - the
process of hoisting the anchor of a ship
which was getting under way, and as he saw
the huge iron rise from the water to the “yo

“You may heave high, and heave low, j
but you will never get that great crooked
j thing through that little hole—l know better.” j

VILLAGE COURTSHIP. BY CHARLES SWAIN.
Tapping at the window,
Peeping o’er the blind ;
’Tis really most supposing
He never leams to mind ?
’Twas only yester evening.
As in the dark we sat,
My mother asked me sharplv,
“Pray, Mary, who is that ?”
Who'? that, indeed—you're certain
How much she made me start;
Men seem to loose their wisdom
Whene'er they loose their heart.
5 es—there he is—l see him :
The lamp his shadow throws
Across the enrtained window ;
He’s stepping on his toes;
He’ll never think of tapping,
Or making any din ;
A knock, though e’en the slightest,
Is worse than looking in!
Tap! tap!—would any think it ?
He never leams to mind !
’Tis surely most surprising—
He thiuks my mother blind ?
’Tis plain I must go to him;
It’s no use now to cough ;
I’ll ope the door just softly,
If but to send him off!
’Tis well if from the door step
He be not shortly hurled—
Oh. man, there ne'er was trouble
Till he came in the world!
Tapping at the window,
And peeping o’er the blind ;
Oh, man, but you’re a trouble,
And that we maidens find!
DR. deGRAFFENRIED’S
RHEUMATIC LINIMENT. |
i I
IN introducing this medicine to the people of the Unit- !
ed States, for sale, the proprietors beg leave to sub- j
mitthe following statement of Dr. deGraffenried, its
■ discoverer and inventor:
The undersigned frankly states that he has prescribed
this medicine for the last twenty-two years, in all forms ‘
j of Acute and Chronic Rheumatism, with a success un
paralleled in the annals of medicine : and he has no hes- 1
itation in saying, that it is decidedly the most valuable j
remed v ever vet discovered for the relief of this most pain - j
ful and distressing maiadv.
His note-book contains upwards of three hundred ca
ses, in which it has been used within the above named
period, and in no sin gle instance has it come to hisknowl- ;
edge, of its having failed to effect a cure when persevered
in. At any of the cases were from four to ten years’ stand
ing ; and what may appear yet more remarkable and ex- j
traordinary. is. that when the patient ha# been once re- j
iieved, the disease is permanently cured, remains so, not j
a solitary instance having been reported to him of its re
turn.
All he would ask for this remedy is a fair, impar
tial and patient trial; lor the results he entertains no ap - •
prehension.
Up to the time ot this discovery, the undersigned had
well studied the origin, progress and character of this dis
ease,and is well assured, had consulted cverv author on
its treatment, who had written or been translated into j
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 even’ other |
country. But the undersigned flatters himself that his I
remedy will cure this most painful disease, when all oth- j
ers have foiled, and that he shall have been an humble in- j
, strument in the hands of God, of relieving the human

Col. .4. B. Kagan —Sir : It affords me great pleasure !
lo be able to bear testimony to the efficacy and virtues i
| of Dr. deGraffenried’s Rheumatic Liniment.
I have been sorely afflicted forthe last six years with, !
i what I believed to be, and what eminent Physicians of:
! this city oronounced Rheumatic gout;for several winters
! past I have been confined to my room and bed nearly all
the time. In January last, I had an attack as violent if
j not more so than usual, which prostrated me for about
; three weeks : on your recommendation I commenced
! the use of this Liniment. (With I must confess but little
j faith.) Its effects were astonishing and decidedly bene
! ficial fromits first application. In a few days my back,
’ wrists and ankles were entirely relieved (and so contin
: ue) of all soreness, pains, and the swelling reduced,
j with the use of less than one bottle. I have been in the
\ discharge of my ordinary business ever since.
1 consider it an extraordinary, and decidedly the most
i efficacious remedy for this disease which 1 have ever met
with. And most cheerfully recommend its use to all
who mav he afflicted with it.
Respectfully,Yours, N. W. BRIDGES,

Dr. Ae Graff envied —Dear Sir: For the la-t 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. Aftermy 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 scarcely 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 Liniment, and take pleasure in informing you that
in less than twenty-four hours from the first application
Iwas 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 medicine.
Wishing you all the blessings you deserve, dear sir,
Your Grateful and Ob't Serv't.

Dr. dcGraffcnried —Dear Sir : I take pleasure in giv
ing you the particulars ofmy affliction by, and relieffrom
Rheumatism. During the spring oflßl-l I was afflicted
with a very severe attack of Inflammatory Rheumatism.
I employed all the most celebrated remediesthen known
and used in similar eases,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. G. MORTON.
FROM COL. A. K. AYER.
Dr. E. L. dcGraffcnried —Learning that you are about
to manufacture lor 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 [tain.

Dear Sir —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 remedy that would afford me
i speedy relief. I was taken down in January last, with
| a violent attack of Rheumatism in nearly all my joints
j so badly, that I could not pull off'mv shoes without aid,
nor oould I ascend or descend steps, or pull off my
: clothes without assistance. My right arm and hand ;
were nearly useless ; the fingers contracted and swollen; j
the right knee swollen and stiffened, so that I could not !
I bend it hut very little. Up to the Ist of April, I was all !
the time in suffering and pain ; I rubbed with vour Rheu- :
matic Liniment my limb# three times, and was the next I
morning enabled to descend a long flight of steps, with I
out aid of crutch or stick, and back to my room —1 could
also bend my knee and bring it up to the chair, which j
the previous day, I could not have done if my life had de- i
pended on it. I could also use, open and lend my ling- j
ers, which was an impossibility the day before. I 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 I
would not have heen in the condition which I had been,
ten days before I called on you, for any amount of money j
which could be given me ; for what is life worth when ‘
j inconstant pain and misery ! I consider your Rhenmat- j
lie Liniment, the most valuable medicine in the world. I :
am, dear sir, vour friend,

Columbus, Nov. 1, 1849.
Dear Sir —My negro woman Patience, a cook, had a !
stiff 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 of your Lin
iment, which was applied in August or September of ;
1818. One bottle entirely relieved her and she now has j
the use of her neck as well as ever she had ; and up to
this time, it has not returned.

Dr. dcGraffcnried —Dear Sir: Having been afflicted,
for some time past, with a severe attack of Rheumatism,
and having heard of the wonderful effects of vour Rheu
matic Liniment, I was induced to try- a bottle of it; and j
after three days, I was so much relieved a# to be able to
! leave the house and attend to business. I have perfect
ly recovered from the disease, and would cheerfully re- 1
commend the Liniment to all those who are afflicted.
GEORGE HOOD, 27 Powell street
Columbus, Ga., Oct. 13, 1849.
Dr. E. L. deGraffenried —Dear Sir : Agreeably 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 having used many of the unnumbered !
prescriptions for its cure, with but little benefit, I made ‘
application of two bottles of your Liniment, which I arn \
happy to say relieved me in a very short time. I can re- [
commend its use to all persons affected in like manner. I
Very respectfully, F. S. CHAPMAN.
I can testify to the efficacy of Dr. deGraffenried’s
Rheumatic Liniment in the ease of Mr. F. S. Chapman, :
as it came under my immediate observation.

Dear Sir— Some time in January last, Mrs. McKee was
taken very ill with Inflammatory Rheumatism in her
shoulder joint#, extending to her elbow joint and arm,
which disabled her from using her arm almost entirely; j
and from the pain, want of sleep, and great restlessness,
for not less than six weeks, I was induced by my friend,
Mr. Luke Reed, to call on you for a bottle of your
Liniment, and by using half the bottle, she was entirely
relieved, and the relief was manifest or sensible after
three or four rubbings. lam of opinion.it is one of the
most valuable remedies that has ever been discovered,
for Rheumatism : that is, from my own knowledge, and
that which I have heard from others.
Dr. E. L. deGraffenried. H. C. McKEE.
Columbus, ’Ga., Oct. 19,1849.
Dr. deGraffenried —.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
bad nearly lost the use of his arm. I used the fourth of
a bottle of your Rheumatic Liniment, which relieved
him entirely. I consder it a most valuable remedy lor
the cure of Rheumatism.

No. 120 Arch Si., Philadelphia.
Their power over the ahocc diseases is not excell
ed. if equalled, by any other preparation in the 1
United States, as the cures attest , in many’ cases
after skillful physicians had failed.
These Bitter#are worthy tHe attention of invalids.— \
Possessing great virtues in'the rectification of diseases of j
the Liver and lesser glands, exercising the most search
ing powers in weakness and affections of the digestive i
organs, they are, withal,safe, certain and pleasant.
Read and be Conrmeed.
Chas. Robinson, Esq., Easton, Md.,in a letter to Dr. !
Jackson, .lan. 9, 1850, said—
‘‘My wife and myself have received more benefit from j
your medicine than any other 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 ol the
day, unless thoroughly convinced of their value.—
Among those we consider worthy of notice is the Ger- I
man Bittees, invented by Dr. Moofland, and prepared
by Dr. Jackson, in Philadelphia. One instance in par
ticular, in which the superior virtues of this medicine
have been tested, has fallen under our observation. Du
ring the last summer, a son of Mr. Abraham Crabill, of
this county, was very seriously affected with Liver Com
plaint, and alter trying in vain various remedies, lie pur
chased a bottle of the Bitters, and after usingit, was so
much relieved of his distressing malady, that lie. pro
cured another bottle, and is restored entirely to health.”
Read Farther a. Few Fuels.
The. “ Philadelphia Democrat,” the leading German
journal of Philadelphia. The editor said, November
24th: _
“ M e again call attention to the removal of the Ger
man Medicine Store, the principal depot for the sale of
Dr. Hoofland’s German Bitters, from 278 Race to 120
Arch street, one door below Sixth. Owing to the in
creased demand for this medicine, and for the accommo
dation of hi# numerous patients, Dr. Jackson has been
compelled to occupy a larger store. We wish him suc
cess in his new quarter#; he deserves it. The Bitters
Mixture is without doubt the greatest medicine extant
ror diseases of the Liver and Bowels. A stubborn ease
ol Chronic Diarrhoea has come under our notice, where
in the patient had exhausted the Materia Medicos of the
different schools of medicine with no apparent benefit.
He was induced to use these bitter#, and a tew bottles of
them have entirely cured him. Many such cases we
could refer to. We hope our readers will recollect this
great restorative, should they be so unfortunate as to re
quire it# use. Mr. Jackson possesses the original unpo
lished receipt ofD r. Hooffand, and he prepares this med
icine with care. Those purchasing 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 scienti
fic and literary attainments,said in his “New York
Weekly Messenger,” January f>, 1850:
“ Dr. Hoof and's German Bitters —Here is a'prcpa
ration which the leading presses in the Union appear to
be unanimous in recommending, and the reason is obvi
ous. It is made after a pre-cription furnished by one of
the most celebrated physicians of modern times, the
late Dr. Christopher Wilhelm Hooffand, Professor to
the University of Jena, Private Physician to the King of
Prussia, and one of the groatc-t medical writers Germa
ny ha# ever produced. He was emphatically the ene
my of humbug, and therefore a medicine of which he
was the inventor and endorser may beperfectly relied on.
He specially recommended it in Liver Complaint, Dyspep
sia, Debility, Vertigo, Acidity of the Stomach. Constipa
tion and all complaints arising from a disordered condition
of the stomach, the liver and the intestines. Nine Phila
delphia papers express their conviction of its excellence,
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. Jack
son’s) preparation, but in recommending 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 arc termed
Patent Medicines to the confidence and patronage of
j our readers; and, therefore, when we recommend Dr.
| Hoofland’s German Bitters, wc wish it to be distinctly
| understood that we are not speaking of the nostrums of
\ the day that are noised about for a brief period and then
| forgotten after they have done their guilty race of mis
| chief, but of a medicine long established, universally
: prized, and which has met the hearty approval of the
: Faculty itself.”
: Evidence upon evidence has been received (like the
I foregoing) from ail 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 no trams
; combined, a fact that can easily be established, and fully
j 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 directed.
| 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 induce coun
terfeiters to put forth a spurious article at the risk of the
lives of those who are innocently deceived.
Look well to the j! larks of the Genuine.
Thev have the written signature of C. M. JACKSON
upon the wrapper, and the name blown in the bottle,
without which they are spurious.

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 the best of
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. pH
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 forits future success ; and that the peculiar internal
organization which connectsthem, cannot be interrupted.
