“A LITTLE IIOKE GRAPE.” TIE undersigned, t r uo to ins promise, again present* to toe Public more da:a on which they can safely base their calculations relative IO the respective merits of the depleting system of ibe disciples of Lsculapiu*, and of rtiat invig orating and phlngutie one of winch he is proud to be the advocate. Leaving the stilts of egotism and shaf sos rid icule for the use of those who have nothing bet ter to stand on, and no other weapons for attack or defence, he selects Ills standing on truth, and uses such support only as merit gives him ; and f>tt weapons, he chooses simply to assail the ranks of the enemy occasionally with “ a little more grape,'* in the form o! tacts,which are evi dently the hardest kind of arguments since they often administer to his quiet amusement by the terrible destruction they cause among the stilts and the ludicrous effect they produce in causing certain individuals to laugh,as it is expressed in homely phrase, “on t’other side the mouth." The Mix leans arc not the only people, these days, whom vanity has blinded to their own de fects \ neither can they claim much superiority in the way of fancied'eminence anil blustering bravado over many that live a great deal nearer home. A salutary- lesson has latterly been giv en the former by tile Americans, and the latter may ere long take “ another of the same ’’ ala mo le de Tat,lor. After the following there will still be “a few more left.” Georgia, (ones County. 1848 This certifies that for more than four or five vears my wife was afflicted with a disease pecu liar to her sex, and notwithstanding all that we could do, she still continued to get worse.

In May 1841, as-or considerable exposure to cold, I was attacked with Asthma, which pros, tratelme very much, and notwithstanding all that cool I lie done to prevent it, it continued to return about every two weeks till in I84(i, I ap plied to vou. Between these attacks I had a very severe cough, which led some of'lie physuiuus to whom I .applied to believe that I had consump tion. I applied to physicians of both ilie Min eral and iiitmir. schools, of eminent gtneral qualifications, but all to no benefit, for I cnnlin ued to got worse, so much so that I had reducer* from being a strong, fleshy man,down to a iiie'e skeleton and could hardly creep about —When I applied to vou, I had hut little faith in being cured, though I had witnessed some wonderful results following your treatmen', especially Hie cure of that crazy woman you bought ot Aipiil- I, Phelps, in Jasper, yet'they gave me cm,fi deuoe and by persevering in the use of your remedies, and as it were hoping against hope, am much gratified in being able to announce that l have got entirely well, lor I have had hut one light attack in twenty months, and that was eight mouths ago.

To deserve the patronage which Congress lias accorded to their reports ofits debates, in receiving and making the Globe the official register, they intend to add promptitude to whatever merit has hitherto re commended the work. They will publish a Daily Globe, to record the proceedings and de bates as they occur ; and a Congressional Globe periodically', as heretofore, embodying the re ports of Congress separate from the miscellaneous matter which will accompany them in the daily print. To fill the sliee: of the daily newspaper, it is designed to gather the news from all quar ters, and complete the contents by drawing from every source that may be of most interest among literary novelties, and ofgreatestutility in scien tific and practical works on agriculture. For material, the leading journals and periodicals of France and Great Britain, treating of such sub jects. will be consulted, and, it is hoped, advan tageously used. Original essays, especially on topics connected with agriculture, will be obtain ed from the most enlightened and practical men of our country. The Globe, as a newspaper, and as a vehicle of information and amusement in other respec’s, will he under the charge of Francis P. Blair and James C. Pickett. The Congressional department and business concerns of the paper will be under the management of John C. Rives. The public are familiar with Blair and Rives as connected with the press. In introducing Mr. Pickett as one of the concern, they will he al lowed to say a few words of him. He is a gen tleman favorable known to the Government, for talent and judgment which distinguished his rii plomatie service while connected with the mis sion to Quito ; and mice recently when Charge d’Affaire* to Peru. From his pen mainly the Globe w ill derive the selections and translations from the French journals anil periodicals, the comments on them, and tile other literary articles w hich will be found among its ch es attractions. The Globe will he published daily during the session of Congress, and Weekly the balance ol the year,and will undergo distribution in the form of a Weekly Globe, a Congressional Globe and an Appendix. The Weekly Globe will he the vehicle ofthe miscellaneous articles of the daily print, with a synopsis of the Congressional proceedings. The Congressional Globe will embody, as it has done for the last sixteen years,Congression al pioceedings and debates exclusively. The Appendix will embrace the revised speeches separately, and the messages of the President nf the United States, and the reports of the Heads ofthe Executive Departments. The Congressional Globe anil Appendix will be published as fast as the proceedings of Con gress will make a number. Subscribers may ex pect one number of each a week during the first four weeks of a session, and two nr three num bers of each a week afterwurds, until the end of tin* Hi-SStOti. Nothing of a political party aspect will appear in the Globe save that which will be found in the Congressiohal reports. A paper assuming to be an impaitial vehicle for all sides, cannot maintain its character if the editorial columns reflect a party line. The Editors of the Globe have borne their share in the party conflicts of the press They claim an honorable discharge from the vocation The Globe will inviolably maintain the neutrality which its relation to Congress imposes. TERMS: For one copy of the Daily Globe (daiiy during the session of Congress, and Weekly during the recess,) a year, : : $5 Oil For one copy of the Weekly Globe, one year, 2 00 For one copy of the Congressional Glal/e, during the next session, if subscribed for before the first day of January, 1 00 For one ropy ofthe Appendix, during the next session, if subscribed for before the first day of January, : 1 00 For six copies of either the Congressional Globe, or the Appendix, or part of both, 5 00 The subscription for the Congressional Globe or the Appendix, after the Ist of January, will he $1 50. The original price of One Dollar does not pay tin expenses ofthe publication in consequence of the great increase of matter pub lisheil. Our prieps for these papers are so low that we cannot afford to credi, them out ; therefore no person need consume time in ordering them, unless the subscription price accompanies the order BLAIR & RIVES.
