From the Scientific American.
Improvement in Locomotives — The Grand Ob
ject Accomplished. —lt is but a week since we wrote
an article about “improvements on railway travel
ling. In it we stated that “the absence of smoke
would be a great improvement,” and “we hoped that
a locomotive burning anthracite coal would soon su
percede the wood-burning engine.’’ Little did we
think at the time that an engine was in our city
which embraced those desirable qualities; but so
there was, and the ink was scarcely dry on our pa
per, when we received an invitation from the in
veutor, Mr. F. P. Dimpfel, engineer, and a noted in
ventor of Philadelphia, to witness the performance
of liis new locomotive on atrial trip on the Hudson
Hirer Hailroad. On last Thursday, along with a
small but select party of engineers and men of sci
entific attainments, we were transported with this
locomotive from 31st street to Dobb’s ferry, where
we were refreshed mentally and physically* with that i
which was good to the taste, on the one hand, and
“a feast of reason and allow of soul,” on the ot'n- .
or.—The running time of the locomotive was forty;
miles per hour, but that is not the point to which
we wish to direct attention—it is the merit of the !
engine a> atjSthracitoe coal burning one, without
.■-moke, or spiffs. Mr. Boss Winans of Baltimore
has built locomotives for burning anthracite coal,
but Iliisis an improvement, or rather it has an im
proved boiler constructed upon an entirely new prin
ciple, which enables the inventor to use anthracite
-cart! without any rapid injury to the fire box, and to
„ raise.an abundance of steam with about only one
half the quantity of coal ever used in any other en
gine to do the same work. To give an idea of ihe
small amount of coal it consumes, we would state,
that it drew 40 cars loaded with coal, weighing 200
tans, on the Reading Railroad, a distance of fifty
eight miles, and only used one and a half tons of
cijul. The construction of the boiler is peculiar. !
The tire box is surrounded entirely with water, and :
there are a series of horizontal copper tubes insert- j
. “ Mi: a bark plate, connected with a back water i
-,1.i rat. the front end, and these run forward,;
mil . .. j. l up in the tire box, inserted into and j
;• s A Tow n plate. The water comes
ibes, in a current approaching from
the •. -t lut of the flue, to the hottest pari in
..oa, and then curves up above the crown
plate. This is the right principle of action in a
steam boiler, for as the cold water approaches from
a less to a greater heat in the lire box, it meets w ith
greater degrees of heat to absorb during every step
of its progress, hence the molecules of water are
constantly changing both their condition anti posi
tion, allowing of no waste of heat whatever, and
preventing the destructive action of the fire upon
the tubes.—The bent part of the tube allows for the
expansion and contraction of the metal, and Mr.
Dimpfel has also a pump inside, worked by a rod
from the engine, to keep up by mechanical means,
a coutinual current through all the boilers. We ex
amined the,engine and fire box after we came in,
and were fully convinced that all the objections to
the use of anthracite coal as “being eminently des
tructive to lire boxes,” have not only been removed
by Mr. Dimpfel, but he has produced an invention
which will save at least 40 per cent of fuel also. The
benefits which this improvement will confer upon
railroads, is incalculable. Along with a saving of
the fire box, and the saving of fuel, Mr. Dimpfel
has attached his peculiar blower to return the car
bonic oxide to the fire, so that there is not the least
particle of the fuel lost, a perfect combustion of all
the carbon is effected, —hence nothing but carbonic
gas escapes at the chimney, and this is of such a
nature that it rises rapidly, when heated, above the
cars, and thus passengers can ride in them and feel
no more unpleasant smell, than they would if career
ing in a balloon. This certainly adds 50 per cent
to the comforts of railway travelling. Mr. Pimp-!
fel has secured patents for his invention, both in A
itferica and Europe.

Lace Making.—The spinning of the fine thread
used for lace-making in the Netherlands, is an ope- j
ration demanding so high a degree of minute care
mid vigilant attention, that it is impossible it can be
ever taken from from human hands by machinery.
None but Belgian fingers are skilled in this art. The
very finest sort of this thread is made in Brussels,
in damp, underground cellars, or it is so extremely
delicate, that it is liable to break bv contact with
the dry air above ground; and it is obtained in sub
terraneous atmosphere. There are numbers of old
Belgian thread makers, who, Hke spiders, have past
the best part of their lives spinning in cellars. This
sort of occupation naturally Inis an injurious effect
iipon the health, and therefore, to induce people to
follow it, they are highly paid.
To form an accurate idea of this occupation, it is
necessary to see'a Brabant thread spinner at her
work. Sho carefully examines every thread, watch
ing closely as she draws it off the distaff; and that
she may see it more distinctly, a piece of dark blue
paper is used as a background for the flax. When
ever the spinner notices any unevenness, she stops
the evolution of her wheel, breaks off the faulty
piece of flax, and then resumes her spinning. This
fine flax being as costly as gold, the pieces thus bro
ken off are carefully laid aside, to be used in other
ways.
Notwithstanding the overw helming supply of imi
tations which modern ingenuity has created, real
Brussels lacc has maintained its value, like the pre
cious stones and metals. Fashion has adhered with
wonderful pertinacity to the quaint old patterns of
former times. Avery skillful lace-worker assured
Mr. Kohl that they are preferred with all their for
mality, to those in which the most elegant changes
have been effected.
Each of the lace-making towns of Belgium excels
in the production of one particular description of
lace; in other words, eacli has its ow n point.
Hence the terms Toint de Bruxelles, Point de Ma
lines, Point de Valenciennes, Ac. In England, we
distinguish by the name Point a peculiar rich lace,
formerly very fashionable, but now scarcely ever
worn, except in court costume. Intliis sort of lace,
the pattern is, we believe, worked with the needle,
after the ground has been made with bobbins.
Many of the lace workers live and die in the houses
in which they were born, and most of them under
stand and practice only the stitches which their
mothers and grand-moihers worked before them.
The consequence is, that particular points have In
come unchangeably fixed in certain towns or dis
tricts. Fashion assigns to each a particular
andrmjposc; for example*—-the Point de Mali lies
(Mechlin la • ) i used chieflv for trimming night
dresses, pi How etsos, <te.; the Point de Valenci
ennes (\ alenuc lines lac •) is employed for ordinary
wear, or \<jc ; but the more rich and costly Point
do, Brux"il-.jo (Brussels lace) is reserved for bridal
aud ball dresses, and for the robes of Queens and
Courtly ladies.— Kohl, translated by Dickens.
To keep Oranges and Lemons.
Take a sufficiency of fine sand, and make it very
dry by exposing it to the heat of the sun or the fire,
stirring it frequently. Afterwards let it become
quite cold, and then put a quantity in a close box
or barrel. Bury your oranges (which must all be
perfectly good) in this sand ; placing them so as
not to touch each other, and with the stem end
downwards. At the top put a thick layer of sand
quite two inches deep. Cover the box closely.
To keep Apples.
M ipe every apple dry w ith a cloth, and sec that
no blemished ones are left among them. Have rea
dy a very dry tight barrel, and cover the bottom
with dry pebbles.—These will attract the damp of
the apples.— then put in the fruit; head up the bar
rel ; and plaster the seams with mortar, taking care
to have a thick rim of mortar all around the top.
Let the barrel remain undisturbed in the same place
till you want the apples for use. Pippins, bell-flow
ers, and other apples of the best sorts, may be kept
in this way till July.
To keep Grapes.
See that there are no imperfect grapes on any of
the bunches. They must not be too ripe. Put in
the bottom of a keg a layer of bran that has been
dried in the sun, or in an oven, and afterwards be
come quite cold. —Upon the bran place a layer of
grapes with bran between the bunches so that they
may not touch each other. Proceed thus w ith al
ternate layers of bran and grapes till the keg is full;
seeing that the last is a thick layer of bran. Then
close the keg, nailing on the head so that no air can
penetrate.
Grapes may also be packed in pine wood ashes
that have been well sifted.
Noiseless Carriage wheels and horse shoes.
In the Mining Journal of July 22, 1848, we no
ticed the introduction of some improvements in the
construction of wheels for carriages, by Mr. Andrew
Smith, the patentee of the wire rope machinery,
w hich were likely to prove of much value to the
public as not only adding greatly to comfort in trav
elling over paveil streets, from their being perfectly
noiseless, but from their combining a much greater
degree of safety. The principle consists in form
ing the hoop of tyre of two separate layers of gal
vanised iron, which are riveted together, and re-gal
vanised in the mass ; this division of parts cutting
ott all vibration when travelling over the roughest
stones. Mr. Andrew Smith has also applied the
principle to springs, in which each plate is galvan
ised seperatelv, and never rusts. The axle is so
made to fit the axle box with.perfect exactness, by a
lining of fusible metal, is itself lubricating, and not
liable to heat; the whole in conjunction secures a
degree of quiet, ease and safety hitherto unattain
ed. W e have been led again to notice these ingeni
; - nprovements, from the fact that the patentee
” . lueed a noiseless Carriage, found that the
>; made more noise than ever, and seeking
: ; remedy, has applied the principle to the hor
se's shoe. This is effected in the most simple man
ner, by making the shoes in two thicknesses of gal
vanised metal, the riveting them together, and re
galvanising. A horse equipped in these pumps trots
over the granite streets of London as softly as if he
was on a bowling-green.— Lond. Min. Journal.

To t3kc honey from Rees.
The common practice of killing the bees, in or
der to obtain the honey, few can witness without
some little compunction ; and as there is a very sim
ple method of effecting the object without any in
jury to this most interesting little animal, which on
on the score of interest, as well as humanity, claims
regard, I beg leave to'communicate it through your
paper, should you deem it worthy of a place in it.
In the evening, when the .bees have retired, take
from its stand, and having spread a”
table cloth on the ground, set the hive gently on it,
placing something under to raise it three or four
inches; then draw up the corners of the doth and
fasten it tight around the middle of the hive. Then
raise the lid of the hive a little and blow in the
smoke of a cigar, a few puffs of which will drive
them down. Continue raising the lid gradually,
blowing in the smoke all around, and in a few mo
ments it will be found that they have all gone out
of the hive. You may then take off the lid and cut
away as much of the honey as you think proper. If
the operation be performed in July, you may take
nearly all, as there will be time enough to provide
a sufficiency for their support during the winter.
As soon as you have taken the honey, put on the
lid, loosen the cloth and spread it out, and in an
hour or two the bees will have returned into the
hive. It may then he replaced on the stand, and
on the following day they will be found at work as
usual.
This is the shortest, best and most simple wav of
getting honey from a hive of bees that l have ever
seen, tried, or heard of. Plough Bov.

Benefit of Clergy.”- ~i ‘his phrase, which, in olden
times, meant the exemption from punishment granted to cer
tain persons who claimed the protection of the Church, has
come to have a very different signification in the vernacular
of these latter days. It now means a right to travel without
charge, and to enjoy many other little advantages on the
same terms, which is often, and very properly, accorded to
ministers of the gospel. Os this praise-worthy custom we
have recently heard the following illustrations for the accura
cy of which, our belzebub says he is willing to vouch.
A story is told of a couple of Mississippi “ Reverends’’
who, during one of the coldest days of last winter, werejour
| neying through a part of the State in which they supposed
: they were entirely unknown. The cold was numbing, the
blast biting and bitter, when they arrived at a road side
; shanty, in front of which was a small shelf, garnished, as
usual, with a black bottle and sundry cakes of petrified gin
ger bread. A bright blaze, cheerily burning on the hearth
( and visible through the open chinks of the shanty, wasa.suf
i ficient inducement to enter. They were of course hospita
bly welcomed, and were immediately installed in the most
comfortable positions about the fire. W bile enjoying its genial
and reviving influence, one of them remarked to his compan
ion, sotio voce, that “ it was very singular how any liquid, ex
posed as that was in the black-bottle outside on the shelf, could
resist the freezing action of such severe weather.” To this,
the other assented, and added that he, too, felt a strange curi
osity to ascertain whether the contents of the bottle had been
frozen or not, but lie was fearful that such an investigation, al
though it was entirely scientific, might be misunderstood by
the good people of the house, lie was afraid, he said, that
they would look upon it as a beastly lusting after forbidden
stimulants—improper in all men, but especially so in ministers
of the gospel. This objection was removed by the fact, that
they were, as they supposed, entirely unknown, and were so
muffled up as to conceal the clerical features of their dress.
The bottle was therefore ordered in, and the “scientific” cx
i periment commenced. Astonishing to relate, the liquid flowed
y , 1 .1 what is still more strange, after it was brought
r the 1! several degrees in the bottle! This euri
!’ -nit .e so apparent, and differed so much from
” • :: 1 : y under the same circumstances, that it
‘<rni, and being unable, at one sitting, to
! dc'i: : ! .rase of so singular a phenomenon, they re
quested the bottle to be refilled, with the view of taking it
along for another experiment. They then rose to depart,
and having asked for their bill, the kind hostess replied,
Thank you Mr. (calling him by name) ice aint mean
enough to charge preachers for a little whiskey !
“ One more of the same sort.”—When our old friend Gen.
C 1 (who has since removed to Montgomery) was a candi
date for the legislature in this county, his prospects of success
were, for a time, more flattering than those of any other in the
fIS if ®mWSM. 8I!!ISS.
field. His brusque manner pleased the people, and although
he never, we believe, attempted a set speech, yet his short har
angues, and especially some pin t-ed arguments which he dealt
out extensively, “ took” amazingly. C 1 stock was above
par. and it was conceded on all hands that whoever might be at
the tail of the ticket, C 1 would certainly be at the head.
But, alas! envy is the shadow of greatness, and genius al
ways will be persecuted ! A few days before the election, some,
one maliciously started a report, up in Squire Jolly Jones’
neighborhood, that our old friend C 1, had been heard to
say that “ he didn't believe that General Jackson ever did
whip the British at the Battle of New Orleans /” This, of
course, was political death in that region, and before C 1
could deny the charge, his defeat was sealed at the ballot-box.
lie was beaten, however, only by a few votes.
It happened that immediately after the election he had to
make a trip to an adjoining county, and had to pass over a
turnpike, upon which, hv the authority of the State of Ala
bama, toll is taken from all way-farers. Now owing, we sup
pose, to an extraordinary length of visage, which might be
readily accounted for by his recent defeat, the gate-keeper
mistook C 1 for a very sanctified minister of the gospel.
lie therefore replied, to C l's offer of payment, that they
never charged preachers for traveling on that road. The
ll 11, you don't ! exclaimed C., and throwing the decimal
fraction of a dollar at the head of the astonished pike-keeper,
he rode on, wondering “ what on earth, people would take
him for next!”— -Tuscaloosa Monitor.

OF
M. S. TIIOYSSOUT, M. D,,
MACON, GEORGIA.
a period of over thirteen years, it has been the province of
’ the undersigned, to present to the people of Georgia, and the
surrounding States, the results of the use of innocent Vegetable
Medicines, in the treatment and cure of disease, as contradistinguished
from poisonous substances, to which from childhood, they have been
accustomed, and to whose iernicious etrects upon the constitution,
many of them are living witnesses.
The success which during this long series of years, has attended
his administrations, has, in many instances, been such, as to over
come the most inveterate prejudices in favor of the old order of things,
and to produce instead thereof, a conviction that even in medicine, as
in other branches of the physical sciences, new ideas may he advanc
ed, and results achieved, than our ancestors would have deemed im
possible, but which our posterity, thanks to the enlightenment of a
coming ace, may find easy ot accomplishment.
This succeds in curing diseases of the most hopeless character after
all other means had failed, and that too, in many instances, t citkout see
ing-the patient, has long been the subject of general remark, exhibiting
as it does, in bold relief the difference between restoring a case that
has been absolutely abandoned , and simply raising another, that hun
dreds of others could cure.
Puch cases can be pointed out in almost every county in Georgia,
where some poor, decrepid, helpless being, after testing every local
means without avail have sent off, as a dernier resort, a description
of their diseases to a distance, in many instances hundreds of miles,
and received back those health restoring remedies that have restored
them again to health and to society, to their own astonishment and
their neighbors wonder, putting at naught the sneers of antagonistic
interests, and adding new finger posts at every post office and cross
roads,pointing the way the city of refuge.
Without subjecting himself to the charge of presumption, he would
yet boldly say, that he firmly believes that nine-tenths of the so called
incurable cases in Georgia, are yet within the reach of medicine,and
can be cured by pursuing a proper course of medication, with the ex
ercise of necessary care and perseverance, on the part of the patient,
which in all cases of a lingering character, are of the last importance.
The great facilities for this kind of treatment presented in the cheap
postage system, has been taken advantage of by thousands who hap
pily can indirectly attribute their present good health to that noble spe
cimen of liberal government; and thereaTe thousands more who may
reap the same advantages, by simply pursuing a similar course. Let
the afflicted if lie cannot write himself, get his neighbor to do it for
/him, give ahistory of his case, age, habits, and symptoms, the same
as if talking to a physician. If able and it is convenient, enclose
the fee ; if not convenient just then, a due bill for the amount will
answer, (this obviates the inconvenience of making accounts at great
and if not able, pre-pay and mail the letter to his address,
when medicines suitable to the case will be compounded and sent
with full directions.
The charge for treatment is only ($3) five dollars, monthly, a sum
sufficiently small to obviate the fear of risk to any one, and yet suffi
cient to preserve him from loss in his extensive administrations.
This done, call at the post office in a reasonable time, and receive
your medicines with as much precision as you would a letter; pre
pare and use them as directed, and persevere; report progress month
ly, or oftener, as may he necessary, and closely watch the progress of
the cure.
Having been long and extensively engaged in the treatment of dis
eases peculiar to females, he would say that they may avail them
selves of his knowledge, with the utmost confidence, in bis prudence
and integrity,so that i t writing out their symptoms, they may express
themselves with the necessary freedom. In some of the diseases of
the renal and procreative system, the medicines being more costly, the
charge will be increased.
Such cases as require personal attention, will be treated on libera
terms in the city, where the necessary accommodations can always
be had.
Those wishing further information in regard to results, will address
a post-paid letter to the undersigned, who will immediately mail to
the applicant such documents as must disarm doubt.

DR. JAMES WEAVER, (Memphis Tenn.) proposes to perform all
Surgical Operation of every description, and is well prepared
witli all necessary instruments to perform every description of opera
tion that ;s performed in any of the northern cities. Ho operntessuc
cessfully on all affections Os the eye, as well as all other cases, and
will insure a cure in all cases of cross-eye, (strabismus) and will guar
antee success in every case of Club or Reel-Foot, (loxarthrus) or con
tracted tendons in any portion oftlie system causing deformity.
Testimonial. —The following is given as one of many certificates of
successful operation which have been furnished Professor Weaver
by his patients.
From the Memphis Enquirer, Jon. 30th1850,
Club or Reel Foot Cured.
Mr. Editor —Dcarßir: Please publish the following case m you r
valuable periodical, that those who may be laboring under a simila r
deformity may know where to obtain relief. My feet were both reel”
ed or clubbed from birth, thetoesturned inwards, the bottoms turned
backwards, and the tops forward, which threw me on the outside of my
feet, on which 1 walked up to the time of the operation. Thore was
a large lump on the outside of each foot, where I rested the weight of
my body in walking. 1 applied to Professor James Weaver, of Mem
phis, Tenn. who is distinguished for his surgical skill, and on the 28th
day from the time of the operation, he put straight shoes on my feet,
they being straight beffire tin- and fiat on the bottoms. I can now
walk on them very well and am improving daily and expect in a short
time to run and jump equal toany neighbor. There is no pain atten
ding the operation but what can be easily stood by any one, and dur
ing the whole operation there is scarcely any blood lost, and no sores
or infatuation, as most (lersons might suppose. There is hardly any
sum that would induce me to exchange my straight feet for the crook
ed ones 1 had six weeks ago. 1 would advise all persons who are le
lioring under that deformity, to call on Dr. Weaver, who will cura
them with certainly.

Two hundred and thirty Cadets, from fifteen different States, have
entered this Institution since it was organized, in 1817. It is entire
ly free from the control or domination of any sect or party, either po
| litical or religious. Economy in dress, by the adoption of a cheap
Uniform, for Winter and Summer, is rigidly enforced. Every studetn
is required to select a College guardian, with whom all funds brought
or received must be deposited,and no debt must be contracted without
the consent of such guardian.
An Institution combining the science oftlie West Point Academy
and of Polytechnic Institutes, with the classical literature of our best
Colleges, adding the modern languages, and superadding practical
schools of Law and Engineering, nearly realizes the long-felt desider
ation of a university able to meet the wants of Western progress—a
university where all may select a course of steady to suit their time,
means ond professional destination.
Mr. Davilss, the Professor of Law, is known is the various
Courts as a practitioner of great ability, varied learning, long experi
ence and exalted character. His eminent qualifications, the whole
some exercise and discipline of the Institute, and the convenient ob
servation of the forms of judicial proceeding, offer unusual induce
ments to those who are earnest to achieve distinction as sound lawyer
CIVIL ENGINEERING
Will he thoroughly and practically taught in the Western Military In
stitute—the Professor, Col. Morgan, being one of the most skillful and
experienced Engineers In the United States. All the instrumentscon
nccted with that department, nave been procured at considerable cost,
and are of the best quality.
The Superintendent takes the liberty of stating that he is now offer
ed $73 per month, for competant assistant Engineers. Oneofhisfoi
! iner pupils receives at this time 92,500 per annum, as Principal En
; gineer of a Railroad now under construction in Kentucky—whilst
others oftlie same class are receiving in different parts of the United
States, $2,000, $1,500, or $1,200 a year as Assistant Engineers.
The time is rapidly approaching when there will be a great demand
for such as have been prepared for that vocation, at the Western Mil
itary Institute. Nothing is hazarded in saying tlint they will readily
command $1,200 or $1,500 per annum. Every man of observation
must see that the gigantic enterprises already proposed, will give birth
to hundreds of others, tributary to them. Tile rapid advancement of
onr whole country, and the eagerness of our people, for exploring the
hidden resources of the new States and the newly acquired territory,
will give ample scope for ages to come, to the skill and enterprise of
jthe Engineer, the Geologist, the Mineralogist, the Surveyor and the
Architect. Young men who have an aptitude for tiie Mathematical
and Physical sciences will have a wide field opened to them for enga
ging in an honorable, a healthful and a lucrative pursuit, for which
they may he thoroughly and practically in a short time, and
a small expense, atthe Western Military Institute.

In making the announcement for the approaching session
of the Botanico Medical College, it is due the friends of Re
form ami the public generally, to lay before them its present
condition.
The Institution has up to the present been crowned with
unparalleled success, compared with similar institutions in
this country. True, it has had to contend with those diffi
culties peculiar to, and which arc constant attendants upon,
the establishment of new institutions, and especially snehas
embrace new doctrines.
In addition to the facilities for instruction heretofore afford
ed, much is being done by the enterprising trustees, and by
individuals to render the institution, if possible, still more
worthy of public confidence,
The college buildings formerly occupied, having been found
too inconvenient for the advanced condition of the institution,
arrangements have Sben made for the building of a more
spacious edifice, which iu addition to the necessary lecture
rooms, will embrace a library, a museum and an herbarium.
The arrangements now in contemplation are deemed as com
plete as in the oldest institutions in the country, and no pains
will be spared, either bv the trustees or faculty, to render the
situation of students not only advantageous, but pleasant.
111 consequence of the numerous applications which have
been made to extend indulgence to young men of enterprise
and merit, at a late meeting of the faculty, it was unani
mously agreed, that a note for ninety-five dollars, with two
good endorsers,payable twelve months alter date, should be
received iu lieu of cash, for the tickets of the several profes

Dr. de GRAFFENREID’S
CELEBRATED
RHEUMATIC LINIMENT.
IN introducing this medicine to the people of the United State*, f
sale, the proprietors beg leave to submit the following stateu***
ot Dr. deGraffenried, its discoverer and inventor:
Hie undersigned frankly states that he ha* prescribed this medirj.
for the last twenty-two years, in all forms of Acute and Chronic pj,.
mat ism, with a success unparalleled in the annals of of medicine
he has no hesitation in saying, that it is decidedly the most valuaL-’
remedy ever yet discovered for the relief of this most painful atxi
tressing malady.
His note-book contains upwards of three hundred rase*, in which u
has been used within the above named period, aud in n nw*u
instance has it come to his knowledge, r,f its having failed to effect*
cure when persevered in. Many of the case* were from four to
years standing; and what may appear yet more remarkable an j
ordinary, is. that when the patient has bet-nonce relieved. th -fjj.,
is permanently eurrel. remains so, not a solitary instance InAingbJL
re[orted to him of its return.
All he would ask for this remedy is a fair, impartial and pat4, nl
trial, for the results he entertain* no apprehension.
Up to the time of this discovery, the undersigned had wall studied
the origin, progress and character of this disease, and is w #U a*. Jr .a
, had consulted every author on its treatment, who bad w ritten or be?
translated into the English language, and had uced all the remedies of
any notoriety then in vogue with the profession, with however,
rarely any relief to poor suffering humanity.
It has baffled the skill and science of the most eminent Physician,
and Surgeons of our own, and of every other country. But the un
dersigned flatters himself that his remedy will cure this most painful
disease, w hen all others have failed, and that he shall have b*. „
! humble instrument in the hands of God, of relieving the hums* fcaiu,
of a vast amount of suffering.

most valuable remedies ever used for that common ud mm
distressing disease, having witnessed its effects ttpon a ne

I right arm and hand were nearly useless; the lingers eon

with your Rheuuiatie Limi+nent my limbs three times, and
was the next morning euabh-d so descend a long flight ed
steps, with oat aid of erntrVi or stick, and back to my room—l
eonid also bend my knee and bring it tip to the chair, which
the previous day, I could not have done if my life had de
pended on it. i could also use, open aud bend my finger*,
which was an impossibility the day before. I rose iu tho
morning from my bed entirely relieved of pain, 1 used 011a
bottle and an eight onnee vial of your Rheumatic Liaimeat,
and in ten days, I was relieved. I would not have been in

I ha ve been sorely afflicted for the last six years with what I believ
