We think the following among the best of the productions of Artemus Ward ; When a man cums to the konklnsion that he would like to kill sum boddy si thirty paces, he imagines that he haz bin wronged, and sends hiz best friend a challenge to site a dewell ; tha meet; an elegant murder is committed; the cracks in this trausaktion are puttye.l up, and then varnished over, bi beiug called “an affair ov honor.” When a man robs a saving bank, or goes tew ur.jpe on the last steamer, with the stolen receipts ova sanitary kon - niittee in his pocket, a komuiittee ov investigation are got together to exam ine the stait of affairs and unanimously report a “diskrepansy in his account.” i yung men hire a horse and buggy at a livri stable, and go into the kuntry on Sunda. They stop at the first tavern they meet, and invest in some ardent speerits. The more tha hiate iu the more tha drive, till bi and hi a devilish bridge tips them over into a devilish gutter that Bumbody bus lef hi the sice ov the road, and they are all killed in cluding the horse and the buggy. This is called a “fatal aksidetit.” A man and his wife are living in the middle of joy and consolashun, tha are surrounded on awl aides by a yung and interesting familee, their bread is cut thin, and buttered on both sides and the edges, but the destroyer enters the family, the wife wants a nu silk gown, the mail eaz he “be d—d if she duz," and she “be d—d if she don’t.” One word brings on another till tha site, both of them lose all the hair in their heds, and 2 full sets of false teeth, the thing ends in a divorce, the man runs awa tew Australia by the overland route, the woman marrys a eirkus rider at 40 dollars a month, the children are adopted bi suiu Sunday school, and are brought up oil homopnthy. This fur nishes a collum and a half in the news paper, under the head ov “Disturbance ov the married relation.” A youth of 21 summers begins life with 36 thousand dollars. Several hos ses belong tew him, there are several fast wimmen that he belongs tew, all the tavern keepers are hiz patrons,-faro banks are built for his amusement, con solidated lotteryes are chartered on pur pos tew make him feel good. He wakes up about the 25th of next May, without a dollar in his pocket, and a host of warm friends on hiz hands, without any visible means ov supporting them. He" takes an akount ov sto< k, he buys a pint ot rum and 4 yards ov bed cord', the one makes him limber while the other makes mm stiff. The putty and varnish in tins kase is: “Driven to desperashun on account ot fin&nshul pressure.” A ralerode trane stans snorting in front ov the depoe, the last bel iz ring ing, the kars are full ov souls that be long tew different individuals, the kon ductor iz full of Bourbon, that belongs tew the devil, the engineer labors under an attack ov Jamaka tor the bronkclis the switchman likes a leetle good old rye, the kars diskount 45 miles a hour, 2 traines tri to pass each other on the same track, it kant be did suckcessfuily: the mangled and ded are Mounted bi scores, a searching investigasbun takes place, the community iz satisfied, be nhe“ katastro varnish f 6 deV ' ,url " ,,,le ' , putty and varnish, free ov expense, tew hide the frauds and gilt 0 f men.

A ND AFTER A THOROUGH TRIAL jtX by innumerable living witnesses, has proved itself to he THE MEDICINE OF THE AGE. Although there have been many medici nal preparations br6iight before the public since the first introduction of Perry Davis’ Vegetable Pain Killer, and large amounts expended in their introduction, the 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 the World! One positive proof of its 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 eftect of the Pain Killer upon the patient, when taken internally in cases of Colds, Ccughs, Bowel Complaints, Choletn, Dys entery, and other aftectiohs of the system, has been iruly wonderful, and has won for it a, name among medicinal preparations that can never be forgotten. Its success in removing pains, as an external remody, in cases of Burns, Bruises, Sores, Sprains, Cnts, Stings of insects, aud other causes of suffering, has secured for it such a host of testimony, as an almost infallible remedy, that it will be handed down to posterity as one of tho greatest medical discoveries of the nineteenth century. The 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 aud adhere to the directions in its use, and you will admit its wonderful medicinal properties. The gennino 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 ot Perry Davis, the original in von tor of the racdicino, the other a steel engraved note of hand. None others can be relied upon as genuino. Prices of bottles 12£ cents, 25 cents, 50 cents, and* sl, respectively. Valuable Medicine —We presumo no medical preparation ever offered to the pnb lio has been more thoroughly tested than PEBRY DAVIS’ PAIN KILLER. Thou sands of persons, wero 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 immense amount of suf fering has been relieved by it. Its pro prietors, Messrs. Porry Davis A Son, save no pains or oxponse in order to satisfy the public. Being striotly houorable men, they observe the utmost uniformity in the man olaclure of their celebrated Pain Killer. The materials of which it is composed ate carefully selected—none but the best quality being used. By these menus 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 meuns 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 tho Pain Eiltor is placed within their reach, we must be permitted to rejoice at the well-merited success of Its liberal and enterprising proprietor.—Provi dence General Advertiser.
