MANUFAC
TURE.—The Kuoxville Plebeian says : We were
shown last week, at the residence of Hon. J udge
Alexander, a novelty in the way of Southern
Manufacture—a large fashionable Piano, which,
for 6tyle and finish will favorably compare with
the finest Northern make. It was manufactured
bv Fred. Benecke, of Wartbug, Morgan coun
ty, a skillful, enterprising German piano manu
facturer, who we learn has established a Man
ufactory at that place, and designs carrying on
the business extensively. We see no reason
why this new enterprize should not succeed.
So far as we are informed, it is the only manu
factory of the kind South of Cincinnati. Hie
piano shown us as a specimen, has been tested
by several of our best pianists, and has been
pronounced - by all equal ii not superior to any
of the northern manufactured, there is none
of the banjo botch-work peculiar to some of the
Yankee articles. The Wartburg Pianos must
soon be introduced into the Parlors of our fash
ionable ladies, and come into general use. The
manufacturer not only designs supplying our
southern maiket with his Pianos, but designs
Shipping a lot to New York city, and thus com
pete with northern manufacturers at their own
doors. This is the way to intimidate the Xurth!
Success to the manufacturer.
Lawyers is the United States— -We sec by Liv
ingston’s Law Magazine, that there are twenty-one
thousand nine hundred and seventy-nine lawyers in the
country, or about one to every eleven hundred inhabi
tants, black and white. Mr. Livingston estimates that
each lawyer in practice has an average income of SISOO.
This would make the average cost of law in the United
States reach the enormous sum of nearly thirty-three
millions of dollars. If this is not pay ing too dear for the
whistle, generally all the client gets after the fees are
fobbed, we know not what is. Maryland is honored
with 543 of these lawyers, Pennsylvania 1730, Virgin
ia 1275, District of Columbia 61, Delaware 50. Tow
ering over all the rest is New York, which has 137 l.

Lktal Murder. — .1 Victim to Circumstantial
Evidence —A few weeks since, a man named Ilicks
was hung in Lawrence county, Mississippi, for the mur
der of a man named Allen, and died protesting his in
noeenee. Subsequent developments go far to show
that Hicks was innocent of the murder. The Natchez
Courier , of the 13th ultimo, furnishes the following
statement of facts, in relation to this tragical affair :
The evidence on which he was convicted was entire
ly circumstantial, and went to prove that Allen was
shot in the back of the head, the ball passing out under
the eye. Ilicks was therefore hang for shooting of Allen.
His last statement to the two clergymen attending him
the night before the execution was, that he, his wife and
Allen were travelling together with a team and camp
ing out by night; that while he was away from the
camp on tho morning of Allen’s death, he heard his
wife scream, and cn running back, found Allen appa
rently lifeless. He had been drinking, and went up to
Mrs. Hicks with evident designs of hugging and insult
ing her. She told him several times to go way, and
when he persisted, she struck him upon the head with
the waggon hammer, which she had in her hands
pounding coffee, and from this blow alone, without any
further violence, his death was occasioned.
Notwithstanding his protestation of entire innocence.
Hicks, as we have said, was hung for shooting Allen in
the head with a ride, and that too on circumstantial tea
tirnony entirely valueless, unless that mode of death lias
oeen considered as proved. And now comes the
strange after development! The denial of Hicks had
made such an impression, that it was thought necessa
ry to examine the murdered body in order to do away
with any idea of Hicks’ innocence, by showing that
Allen was indeed killed by a rifle ball. Accordingly,
thre days after the execution a committee of respecta
ble citizens disinterred Allen's remains. The result of
their investigations proved beyond a reasonable doubt
that Allen was nevt r *hot. His skull upon examination,
appeared to have been forced in by a blow upon the
back of the head, immediately where it joined tho neck.
Pieces of the bone were hanging to the orifice of the
6kull, which were driven in from the effects of the blow.
The bone running below the left eye was slightly
fractured, but the sockets of the eyes, and the bones in
the face bore no marks of a bullet having touched them.
In all probability the story Tlieks told was true, and
he is another victim to circumstantial testimony. We
pity the jury that tried him.
Newspapers must r.E Paid for. —A case was
tried yesterday, in the Common Pleas, before Judge
Kelly in which the right of newspaper publisher to ex
act payment from a subscriber, who neglects or refuses
to give notice to stop his paper, was fully tested. The
cr§3 was that of Philip R. Freas vs. Jacob Haas. It
was an action to recover the subscription price to the
Germantown Telegraph for 12 years. The paper was
left at a public house in the vicinity of the defendant's
stall, in Callowhill street, (the defendant being a butch
er at the time,) at the express direction of Mr. Haas,
where it continued to be left for the space of time sta
ted. The defence was two fold—lst, the statute of limi
tations : and 2d, that tho paper should have been left
at the residence of the defendant, as it was known to the
plaintiff.
Judge Kelley charged the jury, that where a person
subscribes for a paper, and gives directions where it
shall be left, lie is bound to pay for it. unless ha pre
scribes tiie time of which it shall be left. If a sub
scriber wishes to discontinue his paper it is his duty
to square his accounts , and then dive notice for a
discontinuance. Verdict for plaintiff, 22 50. Phila.

In tho Philadelphia Court of Quarter Sessions on
Saturday, the following decision was rendered by Judge
Parsons:
Important Decision—The Right of an Oscupant
of a house to Compel Persons to leave the Ground in
Front of it.— On Saturday, David Vonderstnith was
before the Court on a writ of habeas corpus. lie was
charged with an assault and battery on Andrew Kee,
tho keeper of a hackney carriage. The facts are, that
Kee was standing in front of the United States Hotel,
when he was ordered to leave by Mr. Snider. The
latter called the defendant to arrest him, which he did,
aud took him to the Mayor’s office. It was for this that
the prosecution was brought. Keo alleged that he went
to the hotel to look for a gentleman who owed him mon
ey, and that he was not inside of the hotel. Judge
Parsons said ho would decide the question presented
upon the first principles, so that tho rights of parties
should be clearly understood. Every man owns the
ground in front of his house. 110 has given to the pub
lic a right to pass and repass over it, but in all other re
spects it is as much his property as any other part of the
premises. No one has a right to stand or carry on any
business in front of any man's house, and if he is thus
annoyed and notices the party to leave and he don’t, he
has a perfect right to use sufficient force to compel the
offender to go. If such was not the law, a person might
Bet up a fish stand under another’s parlor window, or
any other obnoxious business. A man keeps a public
house to entertain strangers and travellers, and no one
has ?. right to come about his premises to interfere with
his customers or guests. It has been held by the
Court that men and boys have no right to collect at cor
ners of streets. At the last term of the Court, in a case
where arrests were made by an officer, of persons who
had collected around a house where an unfortunate fo
male who made a noise resided, it was laid down that
tho police had a right to disperse them. When Kee
was told to leave the placoby Utc proprietor, he ought
to have done so. His refusal to go gave the proprietor
a right to take him by the collar and put him oft’ the
pavement, or call a public offieef to do it, which was the
wiser oourse. Vondersmith having done nothing but
his duty, he was accordingly discharged from custody.
More Truth than poet^—The Dundee
rate-payers, in public meeting assembled, had
occasion the other day to “divide.” The aris
tocracy took one side o£the room; the democ
racy the other. A burly manufacturer, con
ironhng a tbin weaver, claimed the majority,
and appealed to the greater area which his
covered. “That’s not because there’s
WAir o’ yu, but ye’ve bigger bellies.”
Recording Deeds. —Recording deeds prompt
ly after the sale and transfer of property would
save parties long and tedious law suits. A wri
ter in the Lancaster Intelligencer, with a view
of showing the importance of this matter gives
the present law of Pennsylvania in relation to
the subject:
“ A deed should always be recorded: but a
deed not recorded is still valid, provided the
same property has not been conveyed to differ
ent parties. If so, the party having his deed
first recorded within six months after execution,
has the best claim to the property 90 conveyed.
This is the law in Pennsylvania; hence the ne
cessity of recording land titles within six months
of executing them. But there are many more
reasons why deeds should be recorded : for in
stance, in tho destruction ot a title by fire or
otherwise, what a difficulty and expense it oc
casions to obtain another title, which if the
deed had been recorded, could all have been
saved, with the exception of two or three dollars
for a copy at tho Recorder’s office. Another
great reason why deed should he recorded is,
that person* often pretend to own property tor
which they hold no title, and defraud honest
persons by giving judgment. It has happened
heretofore that persons had titles for properties
and on the strength therefore obtained money,
for which by mortgages and judgments were
given, the holders of which thought themselves
perfectly safe ; yet, upon a thorough investiga
tion, no title could be found, and the persons
who had advanced the money were defrauded
out of the same. Had the title been recorded,
this could not nave happened. All bond titles
should by all means be recorded ; it secures the
purchaser as well as the money lender, and
prevents fraud.”
A Race after a Locomotive.
The Cincinnati Commercial tells the following story:
A highly intere.-yng ami exciting race look place on
the Cincinnati end ofthe Little Miami Railroad, just
at the rising of the sun on Monday morning last. A
very beautiful and accomplished young lady, of our ac
quaintance, was to leave that morning on the cars for
Cleaveland, en route for tho World’s Fair, in company
with our worthy fellow-citizen Mr. T , and his
family, and had promised to join them at the Depot in
time; when she reached tho station house, accompa
nied by iter father in his carriage, to their consterna
tion and almost utter despair, they discovered the cars
had gone ! The father was for giving tip and return
ing quietly home—not so the young damsel—she pos
sessed more spirit and resolution. .She had no idea of
abandoning the long anticipated voyage to Europe, and
instantly cried out to the faithful driver : ‘Robert, drive
on, for your life—overtake the ears—we must over
take them.’ And, turning to her father, she said :
‘John (the name of tire horse, and a very favorite one,)
has blood and can beat the iron horse,’ I know.’ Robert
lost do time in obeying his fair young mistress,
and <iff they sped ‘like lightning.’ And the good horse
‘John’ appeared to realize what was desired, and the
very difficult task before him, and seemed to say, as
did the gallant Col. Miller, on other occasions, ‘I will
try.’ Jt was not an hour front the commencement of
the race before the resolute and never daunted young
lady was in the car with her friends, who of course had
given up all hope of seeing her.
The Olive in Florida.
TANARUS; W. Titielli IT. S. Counsel at Oporto, writer to
the Hon. D. L. Yalee,at Washington,
* * * ‘I would respectfully call vour at
tention to the cultivation of tho olive in Florida and
in most of the Southern States. Formerly the olive,
on account of its slow growth, was not considered very
useful; but some years siuce anew variety was intro
duced into France, and into some parts of Spain and
Portugal, wliioh yields an abundant crop of fruit the se
cond year after planting. They are small trees, rath
er shrubs, about four or five feet bi<4b. The fruit is
larger than the common olive, is of a fine green color
even when ripe, and l am informed, contains a great
deal of oil. The advantages accruing from this new,
inode of cultivating the olive tree, are beyond all calcu
lation. By the old method, an olive tree, does not at
tain its full growth, and consequently does not yield any
considerable crop, under thirty years; whereas the
new system of cultivating dwarf trees, especially from
cuttings, affords very abundant crops in two or three.
An acre of land can easily grow 2500 trees of the va
riety, and gathering of the fruit is easy, as it can be
done by small children.
As the cultivation of the olive does not require the
least practical knowledge, and as every one in the States
understands tho process of making oil, I would be most
happy to forward, by all means in my power, whatever
your patriotic views might suggest on the subject. I
should think that good olive bushes, well rooted, and
with good heads, might be had here at from 13 to 22
cents each.’
A friend of ours wishes to know whether any of
those dwarf Olive trees can be had iu the U. States
and the price.
Cheese—A fun-loving Yankee in New
Orleans had a lot of rotten cheese. A man in
his employ was famous tor butting, and the
cheese owner set up one of his rotten drugs
and told the man if he would knock a hole in it
he should have it. He ran at it full tilt, and his
head went amid the savory juices and oth
er excellent things clear through. “ Oh gosh,”
cried the fellow, “ I ltad no idea it was so
rotten.’’

V* L 011 ’ 1 ”” P ; ‘P ( ' rs fu. niaw.he following account of lit
erally obeying instructions :
In October, 1849, Lord B , belonging to one of
the richest families in England, took a hackney coach
at London for a place about three miles distant on the
Thames, which serves as a steamboat landing. Arriv
ed there, he got out, telling the caochman to wait, and
ho went on board a Cowes steamer, to see if his bag
gage had been brought on board according to orders
By accident he had mistaken the hour, and was no
sooner on board than the boat put off, before he could
return to pay the coachman. The latter, knowing his
customer, determined to wait, hired the place where
he tnd been left, put up shelter for horses and himself,
and stayed there several months. Lord B came
back last October, having forgotten the whole affair:
but has just had to pay seven hundred pounds, at the
end of a law-suit, for the service, of the coachman dur
ing the period.
Woman s Constancy. —Some four years since,
a young man residing in this city, firmed tiie ac
quaintance of a young lady, and, after visiting her
lor some time, it was mutually agreed that the_\
should be joined together in the bands of wedlock
The day was determined upon, and with anxious
hearts they looked forward to the time when they
should be made one. About one week before thi
period arrived, the young man was called upon
to deplore the loss of a fond and affectionate
parent—this tinforseen event rendered it necessary
that the marriage day should he postponed lor some
months. A few weeks before this time had passed,
an advantageous business engagement was proffer
ed to the intended groom to visit California. On
consultation, the bride and her friends came to the
conclusion that a second postponement of the day
would prove beneficial in the end. Alter spending
a year in San Francisco, tiie young man determined
to settled there permanently; and, in accordance
with this determination, wrote to the lady anti
requested her to join him in California; at the
same time naming the day for the con.-uinmation ol
their anxious hopes.
With great joy the lady made due preparation
for her departure, and in the course of time reached
Calitorira. Imagine her sorrow on arriving there
to find her intended husband lying at the point oi
death from an attack of brain fever. Months pass
ed by, and through the providence of God the sick
man was sufficiently restored to be enabled, by the
advice of the medical attendant, to return to the
United States. Once more the bridal day wa
named, and with joyful hearts the lovers started lor
home, deeming it advisable not to be united uutn
tney should reach New York. On reaching Panama
the hero ot our tale was attacked with the Chagres
•ever. Alter months ol delay here lie again rtcov
ered sufficiently to resume his journey to this city
—not, however, until the filth appointment huu
passed by. Yesterday afternoon the lovers were
united iu one outlie up town churches. The young
lady has cartainly given a most satisfactory exem
plification of woman’s constancy. — N. Y. Sun.
Courting. —An old paper says:—“Courtingis a
subject which, always important, is peculiarly so
and we design to call the attention of the young
people to it occasionally, in hope of arresting an
alarming evil. Young ladies are bound to fall in
love as soon as possiole, and bound to get a partner
lor life as soon as the necessary preliminaries are
made—sucli as getting a lover, fascinating him
thoroughly, being courted, having the question
popped, getting the wedding garments in array, and
inviting triends to see him prettily married. The
young man is bound to be gallant and polite, and to
admire without any stint, all the pretty girls known
and unknown, to doff the beaver, offer his arm.
invite to ride, pleasant saunter—in short to all the
sundries, indeed to show his devotion and gallantry
towards the fair sex until some enchantress tnrows
the spell around him, and he sinks, subdued, into a
common place, indifferent, careless Benedict.
Now out of these things grows difficulties. A
young man admires pretty girls, and must manifest
it : he cannot Help doing so for the life of him The
young lady has a tender heart, reaching out like
vine tindrels for something to cling to, she sees the
admiration, is flattered, begins soon to love, expects
same avowal ; and perhaps gets so far as to deoide
that she will choose a white satin under a thin
gauze, at the very moment the gallant that she
loves in popping (he question, (good! ha! ha!) to
another damsel ten times oft’.
Now the difficulty is not precisely, understanding
the difference between polite attentions and the ten
der manifestations ot sighing love. Admiring a
beautiful girl, and wishing to make a wife of her,
are not always the same : and, therefore, it is nec
essary that a girl should he on the alert to discover
to which class the attentions paid her by handsome
and gay young gentleman belong. First,
then—if a young fellow greets yon in a loud, free,
hearty voice—if he knows precisely where to put
his hat, or his hands—if he stares you straight in
your eye with his own wide open—if he tells you
who made his coat—it he squeezes your hand—il
lie eats heartily in your presence—if he fails to
ralk kindly to your moiher—if he sneezes when you
are singing, or criticises your curls, or fails to act
very foolish in fifty ways in every hour, then don’t
fall in love with him for the world; he only admires
you, let him do or say what he will.”
Test of Abolitionism.— All is not gold that shines,
and tiie loudest mouthed philanthropists and reformers
sometimes cave in when put to a practical test, like the
following.
“I had a brother-in-law,” said Mose Parkins, “who
was one of theravenest maddest, reddest-hottest aboli
tionists you ever see. I liked tho pesky critter well
enough, and should have been very glad to see him
cum to spend a day, fetchiu’ my sister to see me and
my will*, if 1m hadn’t Mowed his tongue to run on so
’bout niggers and slavery, and the equality of tho races,
and the duty of overthrowing the constitutiou of the
United States and a lot of other things, some of which
made me mad, and tho best part of’em right sick. 1
puzzled my brains a good deal to think how I could
make him shot up his noisy head about abolition.
“ Well, one lime when brother-in-law come to stay,
an idea struck me. I hired a nigger to help ine haying
time. He was the biggest, strongest, greasiet nigger
you ever see. Black! ho waablacker than a stack of
black cats and jest as shiney as anew beaver hat. I
spoke to him. ‘Jake,’ sez I, ‘when you hear the break
fast bell ring, don’t you say a word, but you come into
the parlor and sit right down among the folks and eat
vour breakfast. The nigger’s eyes struck out of his
head about a feet! ‘Your jokin’ massa,’ sez he. Jo
kin’ !’ sez I, ‘l’m sober as a deacon.’ ‘But,’ sez he,
‘I shunt have time to wash myself,and change my shirt.’
‘So much the better,’ sez I. Wall, breakfast come, and
so did Jake, and ho sat down ’long side my brother-in
law. He stared, but he didn’t say a word. There
warn’t no mistake about it. Shut your eyes you’d
know it—for he was loud, I tell you. There was a first
rate chance to talk abolitionism, but brother-in-law nev
ei opened his chowder-head.
Make,’ sed [, ‘you be on hand at dinner time ;’ and
he was. lie had been working in tho medder all the
forenoon—it was hot as hickory and bilin’ pitch—and
—hut I leave the rest to your imagination.
“Wall—in theafternoon—brother-in-law come up to
me, madder than a short-tailed bull in hornet time.
“Mose said he, ‘I want to speak to you.”
“ ‘Sing out,’ sez I.
“ ‘I haint hut few words to say,’ sez he, ‘but if that
’ere confounded nigger comes to the table again while
I’m stoppin’ here, I'll clear out.’
“Jake ete his supper that night in the kitchen, but
from that day to this, I never heard my brother-in-law
open his head about abolitionism. When the fugitive
slave bill was passed, 1 thought he’d let out some, but
he didn’t for he know'd that Jake was still working
on the farm.”
Eccentric Parson.— The Providence Journal tells
the following amusing story of a minister, betraying a
want of faith, while preaching in favor of that Christian
virtue.
Old doctors, was among the most eccentric geniuses
of the cloth.” He held forth, many long years since,
somewhere in the White Mountains, iu the Granite
State. IHs pulpit window was so situated, that, from
it, there was a full view of the Old Monad nock Moun
tain. One sabbath, expatiating to his audience on the
power of faith, he recited the passage from the New
Testament, in which it is said, “ if ye have faith as a
grain of mustard seed, ye shall say to this mountain, be
removed,’’ fcc. Then he exclaimed, ‘ yes, my hear
ers, if you had faith as a tjrain of mustard seed, and
should say to Old Monadnock, be ye removed, it should
be’’—when, pausing, and casting his eyes out ofthe
pulpit, he shook his head gravely, and continued
‘ doubtful . my hearers. Old Monadnock is a tolera
bly big hill—but you can try if”
JltdS?” The Philadelphia Bulletin says:
“The reception of President Fillmore in New York
was most enthusiastic. Cannon thundered, tlags waved,
thousands shouted, ladies smiled, and military, to the
number of twelve regiments, paraded. In justice to
New York it must bo admitted that, in all such public
demonstrations, she surpasses Philadelphia infinitely,
tftid that, in consequence any President, no matter who
lie may be, will not be very apt to think, after a visit
to both cities, that Gotham is decidedly the greatest
place in the nation, and particularly full of his
ft iend *. there is but one man indeed, whom Philadel
phia understand how to reoeive, and that ia Henry
Clay. Wheu he visit, us the the town boils over. On
On other occasions, to speak plain truth, we either uu
do or over-do the matter. With Harrison we
managed to effect the latter, by taking the horse from
the oarriage and hamming human donkeys to the tra
ces instead.” ‘

A SAFE and certain cure for Coughs, colds,
Croup, Asthma, Consumption of the Lungs,

The following is from the pen of Wm. 11. Levi
son, Esq., the distinguised editor of the United
States Military and Naval Argus, under date New
York, January 26, 1351). What could be more con
clusive?
‘lt is seldom we permit ourselves to occupy a
space in these columns to speak in praise of any
article in ihe patent medicine way; that when we
see the life of lellow-creature saved by the use of
any medicine whatever, we consider it as onr

tacts, that others mav, in like manner, be benefit
ted. The case which has induced us to pen this
article was that of a young lady of our acquain
tance, who by frequent exposure to the night air,
contracted a Cold which settled on the Lungs be
fore its ravages could be stayed. (This occured
two years ago this winter.) Various remedies
were used, but with very little effector benefit.—
I’he Cough grew worse, with copious expectora

told plainly that pulmonary disease was doing its
worst on her delicate frame. The family physi

sumption, yet he would give no encouragement as
to a cure. At this crisis her mother was persuad

Dr. Rogers’ Syrup of Liverwort and Tar.—
We have heard of several important cures recent

ease, Stiff Joints, Lame Back or side, and all like
disesses, are sure to trouble them, and many times
entirely lay them up, when the simple application
ot this plaster would give them immediate relief,
and enable them to proceed with their labors with
out delay.
It has been very beneficial in cases of w eakness,
such as Pain and Weakness in the stomach, weak
Limbs, Affections of the Spine, Female Weakness,
&,c. No female, subject to pain and weakness in
the back or side, should be without it. Married
ladies, in delicate situations, find great relief from
constantly wearing this Plaster.
The application of the Plaster between the shoul
ders has been found a certain remedy for Colds.
Coughs, Phthisic, and Lung Affections, in their
primary stages. It destroys inflammation by perspi
ration.
A Voice from Georgia.
Read the following testimony from a Physician.
Gentlemen:—Yom Hebrew Plaster has cured
me of pains ot which I have suflered for twelve
years past. During this period I labored under an
affliction of my loins and side, and tried many re
medies that my own medical experience suggested,
but without obtaining relief. At length I used your
Plaster, and am now by its good efl'ects entirely
cured. I will recommend the Jew David or He
brew Plaster to all who are suffering from contrac
tion of the muscles, or permanent pains in the side
or back.
The people of Georgia have but to become ac
quainted with its virtues when they will resort to
its use. Yours, truly,

Messrs. Scovil & Mead: i have been troubled
with the chronic rheumatism for the last twelve
years On the Ist of July, 1849,1 was so bad that
I could not turn myself in bed, and the pain so se
vere that I had not slept a wink for six days. At
this time my attending physician prescribed the
•Hebrew Plasters,’ and it acted like a charm; the
pain left me, aud I slept more than bait of the night,
and in three days f was able to rideout. 1 consid

Convulsive Fits Cured!
GEORGIA: ) 1 hereby certify that in the spring of 1845
Jasper County. smy negro girl Charity was attacked with
convulsive fits, which continued to increase on her. notwith
standing all the efforts of some of our best Mineral Doctors
in this region. Deeming the case hopeless with them, I con
cluded to carry her to Macon and put her under the treatment
of Dr. M. S. Thomson, who gave her medicine some two or
three months, wiiich stopped them for about 18 months, at
which time they returned with increased violence, so severe,
indeed, that l and an eminent physician in the neighborhood de
spaired of her life. Under these circumstances the Doctor a
gain advised me to call on Dr. Thomson, which I did and ob
tained a portion of medicine, which, I am pleased to be able to
say entirely cured her. The last she had continued from some
7to 9 hours or more and was very severe, hut they have not
recurred since, a period of over three years.
Given under my hand and seal,this 21st November 1850.

Fits cured without seeing the Patient!!
Joses Cos. Ga. 7th Feb. 1831.
This may certify that my negro woman Martha, (now be
longing to Ferdinand Finney,) was severely attacked with Ep
ilepsy, or convulsive fits in 1847, which continued to return
evefy week or two, and sometimes continued on her for a
week at atime, during which she would have as many asfor
ty or fifty on a stretch, befrre stopping. Intliis state she con
tinued for a whole year, notwithstanding all Dr. Ridley of
Hillsboro, could do. Despairing at last of his success, and
hearing of the unpraielled cures effected by Dr. M. 8. Thom
son of Macon, I concluded to call on him, which I did, and
eave him her symptoms when he prepared and gave me med
icine, which in about two months entirely cured her, as she
has had none since and is now (icrfecly healthy, thus adding
another to the many euros the Doctor has effected without
seeing the patient.

Syphilis, Rheumatism k Liver Complaint
Cured without seeing the Patient!
Jones Cos. Ga. 21st. Sept. 1850.
Dr. M. .S'. Thomson —Dear Sir: Your success has been
such in curing my son of Rheumatism and my negro woman
of liver disease, Rheumatism, Syphilis Ac. that 1 cannot re
frain from giving you the credit that is due you, for your
skill, and if you think that a statement of the cases will be
any use in directing other sufferers, to the proper remedies,
the following rcl tion of facts is at your disposal.
Some 14 years ago, mv negro woman lliiody was taken in
a lingering way, supposed to he caused from Syphilis, treated
by herself, which on discovering, 1 put her under the care
of levera! mineral physicians, Drs. Little aud White of Mil*
ledgeville. especially, who after mercurializing her a year or
*o. left her worse than they found her, laboring in addition
under Mercurial Rheumatism.
I then applied to Dr. Woodruff, who treated, and I thought
cured her, but alter a while, she became worse again, so
much so that 1 despaired of relieving her. Under these cir
cumstances I applied to you, and 1 am pleased to be able to
report, that notwithstanding it is a long time ago, she has had
no return of her disease since, hut is now doing me very good
service.
The case of my son was one of Mercurial Rheinatism ari
sing from salivation for a fever. After keeping lingering for
three or four years, and getting worse all the time, till his
limbs were drawn and stiffened very much; notwithstanding
all that wecoulddo, lie continued thus, till we applied to you
when you soon relieved him.andl am happy to be able to re
port that consider him relieved cured, and has been so twelve
months.
In conclusion, dear sir, go on and prosper, you may have ene.
mies, as who that is any account has not, but success in curing
such desperate cases must bear you up, and that your success
may be commensurate with your merits is the earnest wish of
yours truly, GILUS WRIGHT.
The undersigned continues his treatment of all manner of
chronic forms of disease, through the mail, the facilities of
which have been much enhanced since the introduction of
the cheap postage system, which will he greatly increased hy
the recent Act of Congress.
The afflicted, no matter where they reside, by sending a
statement of the symptoms of their cases in writing, may
have Medicines to suit them compounded and sent, and might
count upon receiving it with the same certainty that they
would a letter. That they can b i cured withont a personal
interview and examination, isslrange, hut that hundreds are
thus cured, is no more strange than true.
In order that nil. the poor as well as the rich, may enjoy the
benefits resulting from his treatment, the subscriber puts his
terms at the low rate of five dollars monthly, cash or good re
ference, to ail tiiosa who are able to pay, and freely ami grat

other cases requiring his personal attention, City accommoda

lie still continues the treatment of acute cases, in town or

city to go long distances except in cases of most urgent neces
sity. lleing possessed of some of the latest improvements in

| I HAVE FOUND A BLESSING!!
The superior of Quinine
and Sarsaparilla.
THE GREATEST DISCOVERY OF TIIE AGE.
DR. I. T. HENDERSON’S EUREKA TONIC
AND NEPENTHEAN PILLS, a safe, certain
and permanent antidote against all forms of the pois
onous effects of miasmata, effecting speedy and per
manent cures of
CHILLS and FEVER,
and all the different varieties of Fevers; torpid liver,
enlargement of the spleen, dyspepsia, dropsy, Jaun
dice, and ull kinds of constitutional debility and de
rangement of the system, are speedily remedied by
these invaluable medicines. These valuable antidotal
remedies were discovered by Dr. I. T. Heuderson, and
have been successfully tested by some of the best Phy
sicians in the tioul!i,und by thousands of other per
sons.
THe medicines are wholly Vegetable, and are harm
less under any circumstances. The principal ingredi
ents are entirely new remedies, used by no other person
in any form as a medicine.
In malarial diseases, they act as an antidote against
the poisonous effects of impure air, and require no pre
ceding preparation of the system, as they comprise the
( atliartic, Diaphoretic, Sedative and Tonic princi
ples ; thus accomplishing a desideratum in the treat
ment of these diseases, long sought for before the dis
covery of these medicines.
All who have used Quinine, (the best remedy here
tofore known for intermittent fever,) must say it is
neither certain or lasting in its effects.
Quinine, iu many instances, from febrile excitement
and gastralgia, and cephalic disturbances, is inad
missible. But the Eureka Medicines can be used un
der any circumstances or condition of the system,
where a tonic, purge, or diaphoretic is needed, with the
happiest effect. The tonic mildly acts on the bowels,
carrying of the inuco billious matter collected there ;
correcting the action of the liver and spleen, and as
sisting natnre to throw of the impediments to a healthy
action of the body by natural remedies, calling into
action suspended animal laws; thereby removing the
causes and effects of disease through the natural chan
nels of the hotly.
All that is asked for the wonderful medicines is a fair
trial, which will satisfy all of their unparalelled vir
tues. Their fame is built upon their own efficacy, and
a comparison with all other remedies is challenged.—
Physicians are requested to use the Eureka Tonic and
Nepenthoan Pills, as they would any other tonic, with
any previous preparation of the system they please,
and they will be convinced that they are superior to
Quinine, and the whole catalogue of tonics used as in
term itten Is.
Their use is admissible at any time, even when the
patient has the highest fever. For sick head ache or
obstructed menstruation, they have no equal. For
particulars, see tonic directions.
Also. l) r . 1. T. HENDERSON’S EUREKA PU
RIFYING CATHARTIC PILLS, for cleansing and
purifying the Constitution, aud establishing a healthy
economy in all persons laboring nnder any form of con
stitutional derangement.
Also. Dr. I. T. HENDERSON’S OUACHITA
V ERMIf UGE, the greatest blessing ever bestowed
upon the infantile world, warranted to expel worms
of every kind and in every case, where they exist in
the body. This Vermifuge has proved itself decidedly
superior to any other in use.
Also, Dr. I’ T. HENDERSONS NERVE AND
BONE LIN AM ENT, or IIEAL ALL AND FI'L
MONICAL. The use of this astonishing Liniment,
has been attended with unparalelled success in all dis
eases of man or horse. For a horse, it instantly cures
Corks, Scratches, Chafes, Cuts, Wounds, Splints.
Spavin, Stiffle, Swinnev, Sprains, Film of the Eye,
Whirlbone of any joint, and Distemper.
For a man, it speedily cures Rheumatism, Gout,
Scrofula, Burns, Scalds,’ Tetter, Ringworms. Wens,
Swellings. Risings, Cuts. Sprains and Bruises, Old Ul
cers, Scald Head, Sore-throat, Salivation. Consump
tion, Bronchitis, Snake bite, Sore Month, Neuralgia,
Piles, Ground Itch, &e. A single trial will sat

ment.

Dear Sir—Some time in January last, Mrs. Mc-
Kee was taken very ill with Inflammatory Rheums
tism in her shou.der joints, extending to her elbow
joint, and arm, whjch disabled her from using her arm
almost entirely ; and from the pain, w ant ol sleep, and
great restlessness, for not less than six week*. Iwa
induced by my friend, Mr. Luke Heed, to call on you
tor a bottle ot your Liniment, and by using ha.like
bottle, she was entirely relieved, and the relit-f was
manifest or sensible after three or four rubbings. lam
of opinion it is one of the most valuable remed:ea that
has ever been discovered for Rheumatism: that is,
trom my #wu knowledge, aud that which I have bean!
from others.
