A C»sej»f Conacience.
The following abstruse metaphysical
questions, which might form food for
putiling contemplation to the unfathoma
ble German mind for generations, arc evi
dently propundedto us as stumbling-blocks,
over which either common sense or morality
must trip if we answer them. So we avoid
giving direct reply by saying, “Act like a
man in all circumstances," and this recipe
may serve for the cure of multitudes of
hard eases of conscience.—A'eie York Sun
day Mercury.
PJtar TULL UK, BEAR EDITOR, WHAT SHOULD
I DO?
If I walk in the street on a wot muddy day,
And by chance see a maid crossing over the
way,
With her skirts slightly raised from the
mud to keep clear,
Though in doing so two pretty ankles
appear,
Should I close both my eyes, or look up at
the sky,
Or in some such way let such a sight pass
me by ?
Tray tell me, dear Editor, what should I do?
If I walk, arm-in-arm, with some lady fair,
Whoso idea of fashion inclines her to wear
A full dress very low-necked (as often’s
the case),
With continuation of delicate lace j
With a face of such sweetness, so pure and
so fair,
With such eyes—there, enough !—and such
beautiful hair!
With such cheeks—with a sweet little dim
ple in each —
With a color that rivals the blush of the
peach ;
With such sweet pouting lips, and such
hands, and such arms,
With such dear little feet—and, in fact, all
such charms—
Could you look at, admire, such charms as
I trace.
Without taking one peep through that deli
cate lace ?
Pray tell mo, dear Editor, what would
you do ?

CHOLERA.
g. A CERTAIN CURE
vgajHjßt's, For this Disease may be
found in the use of
IwlMgip PERRY DAVIS’
VEGETABLE
Pain Killer,
St. Louis, Mo., June 14, 1349.
Mr. A T. Woodward, Agent of Perry Davis’
Pain Killer :
Dear Sir : I feel it a duty I owo to the
public, to make known tbo value of Perry
Davis’ Pain Killer, and my experience in
using it for some of the complaints for
which it is highly recommended. In April
last, on your recommendation, I purchased
a one dollar bottle of you for pains with
which I have long been afflicted, and made
uso of it on my trip down to New Orleans,
with, the most gratifying and beneficial
effects. On my return to this city, the
Cholera made its appearance among some
of my passengers. I made use of the Pain
Killer, having no other remedy on board,
and, to my surprise and gratification, found
it gave immediate relief! On my arrival
in St. Louis, I called on you and got four
large bottles, and stated to you my confi
dence in it as an infallible Cholera remedy,
' and remarking to you that I wanted no
other Cholera remedy on my boat. I made
use of the four bottles on my trip to New
Orleans and back, for Cholera and some
other complaints for which it is recom
mended, and met with the most astonishing
success ; when I ordered from you six more
one dollar bottles. Sinco then I have
made two more trips to Now Orleans and
back; and on my previous trip up I had
more than
SEVENTY CASES OF CHOLERA
on board, when the PAIN KILLER was
immediately U6ed with the most astonishing
results. In all cases where it was used in
time, it gave relief in a very short time;
and I can, with confidence, say to tho pub
lic, that in all the first stages of Cholera,
when taken in time, it is, in my opinion, an
infallible remedy! and after a fair trial
with it for several weeks, and lor four
trips to New Orleans and back, and using
it lor Cholera and othor complaints for
which i* is rccommondod, no consideration
whatever would induce mo to leave port
without a good supply—believing it to be a
medicine that no officer of a boat or any
family would be without a single day after
using one bottle; believing it to be the
most valuable family medicine known to
the world for all the different complaints
for which it is recommended.
P. S.—Please send me six large bottles
for this trip.
J. M. Broadwell,
Captain Steamer Adriatic.
I most cordially unite with Capt. Broad
well in recommending Perry Davis's Pain
Killer to the public, having myself been
severely attacked with the Cholera, and
found relief in a few hours by using the
Pain Killer, and have myself administered
it to more than fifty persons attacked with
the Cholera, and when used in time, a cure
was effected in a few hours, and take pleas
ure in recommending it to the public as an
invaluable medicine, that no individual
should bo without a single hour.
J. F. Boffingtos,
Clerk Steamer Adriatic.
