They gradually thawed him, and upon anima tion being restored, he concluded his sentence with “eeedingly cold." Sadness and Literature. One of the anomalies of literary history is that it has often been the lot of those men who have contributed largely to the mirth or recreations of others to en dure a more than ordinary share of mis ery and want in their own lives, 'j he most entertaining portions of literature have been written by men whose hearts have been bowed down by sorrow, and at moments when that sorrow has been heaviest. It was in the gloom of a mother's death, deepened by his own poverty, that Johnson penned the charming tale ot “Hasctlas it was in the chill desolation of a bare and fireless garret that poor Goldsmith, the beloved vagrant of literature, sketched the brightest picture of domestic happiness the world has ever had; it was from a sickbed, in sore distress, and inane* cessitotis exile, that Tom Hood shook a l England with laughter. The en chantment of Scott, the satire of Jer rold, halt ot the gems of English wit and humor, have been thrown out by genius in its most sorrowful moments. ' THE DAIIiY PRESS. VOL. 111.

VEGETABLE : PAII KiLLEE STILL TRIUMPHANT ! \ ND AFTER A THOROUGH TRIAL XX. by in numerable living witnesses, has proved itself to be THE MEDICINE OF THE AGE. Although there have been many mcd:ci nal preparations brought before the public since the first introduction of Perry Davis' Vegetable Pain Killer, and large amounts expended in their introduction, tbe Pain Killer has continued steadily to advance in the estimation of the world as the best family medicine ever introduced. As an internal and external remedy, it is truly a source of Joy to tie World! One positive proof of irs efficacy is, that the sales have constantly increased, and upon its own merits, as the proprietors have not resorted to advertising to gain for it the rank it, now holds among the great number of preparations of the present time. The rfect of the Pain Killer upon the patient, when taken internally in cases of Colds, Ccughs, Bowel Complaints, Cholera, Dys entery, and other affections of the system, has been ’ruly wonderful, and has won for it a name among medicinal preparations that can never be forgotten. Its success in removing pains, as an external remedy, in cases of Burns, Bruises, Sores, Sprains, Cuts, Stings of insects, and other causes of suffering, has secured for it such a host of testimony, as an almost infallible remedy, that it will be hauded down to posterity as ione of the greatest medical discoveries of the nineteenth century. Tho magical ef fects of the Pain Killer, when taken or used according to directions, are certain. You have only to be sure that you buy the genuine article and adhere to the directions in its use, and you will admit its wonderful medicinal properties. The genuine Perry Davis' Pain Killer is now put up in panel bottles, with the words Davis’ Vegetable Pain Killer blown in the glass; and with two steel engraved labels on each bottle—one an excellent likeness of Perry Davis, the origiual inventor of the medicine, the other a steel engraved note of hand. None others can be relied upon as genuine. Prices of bottles 12*1 cents, 25 cents, 50 cents, and sl, respectively. Valuable Iledicite —We presume no medical preparation ever offered to the pub lic bus been more thoroughly tested than PERRY DAVIS' PAIN KILLER. Thou sands of persons, were they called upon to do so, would cheerfully testify that they have used it for various ills, with the most satisfactory success. It is within our own knowledge that an immeuse amount of suf fering has been relieved by it. Its pro prietors, Messrs. Perry Davis A Son, save no pains or expense in order to satisfy the fublie. Being strictly honorable men, they observe the utmost uniformity in tho man ufacture of their celebrated Pain Killer. The materials of which it is composed arc carefully selected—none but tbe best quality being used. 13y these means the high repu tation. which the Pain Killer has long‘since acquired is, at all times, triumphantly sus tained. In view of these facts, we are by no means surprised to learn that Messrs. Davis A Son's sales are constantly and rapidly increasing. While we congratulate our friends generally that so valuable a preparation as the Paifi Killer is placed within their reach, we must be permitted to rejoice at the well-merited success of its liberal and enterprising proprietor.—Provx nee General Advertiser, * .Sold by all Medicine Dealers. do2B—2m* NO. 24. a Rail Road Schedules.
