From she Cincinnati Nonpareil.
A Quaker Wedding.
Married in this city yesterday, at the Quaker
Meetinghouse, on Fifth streetMr. Henry
Shipley, of this ci*y, to Miss Hannah It.
Taylor, of Xcivport,
A large company assembled at the unosten
tatious church of the Society of Friends, j ester
day at eleven o’clock,, to witness so unusual an
occurrence as a Quaker wedding. As the spirit
moved us to be present, we propose to give a
description of the ceremony. It was a regular
monthly meeting^'tin* Friends, a small though
highly respectable society, worshipping regu
larly at the house above mentioned. VYheu we
arrived, the church was nearly filled with young
ladies, occupying seats on the opposite side of
the house, and fronting the main audience. —
The broad-brims slipped quietly into the seats
in the men’s division of the house, and com
menced their silent communion with their spir
its and the spirits of the unseen world. After a
half an hour's profound silence, there was some
appearance of uneasiness among the spectators.
We were amused at a whispered conversation
between a country girl and her more knowing
city companion.
“ What do these woman wear such bonnets
for ? They look like half hornet’s nest, hail
coal scuttle.”
“Hush! that’s the Quaker fashion.’’
“ Where is the pulpit?’’ said the first men
tioned.
“The Quakers have no pulpits.”
“Where is their minister I”
“They have no minister.”
“Who preaches, then ?”
“All of them, or any of them, just as they
happen to feel.’’
“Whv don’t (he meeting begin ?’’
“Hush up— the meeting has been begun this
half hour.”
“ Whv nobody lias said a word, and those
men opposite have got their fiats on.”
“Never mind,somebody will speak soon, pro
video the spirit moves them; and they always
wear their hats in church.”
“0 ! 1 know—they are waiting for the bride
and groom.’’
“No, indeed; they have been here half an
hour ; don't you see them sitting directly oppo
site that handsome young man with gold specs,
and the lady beside him, dressed in white sat
in.’’
“ I want to know if that’s them; they don't
look Quakerish a bit. 1 should like to kuow
who’s going to marry them ?”
“Nobody —ihey'll many themselves.’’
“Marry themselves! Well, why in the world
don’t they begin ? What are they waiting
for ?”
“Waiting for the spirit to move”
Another half hour was passed in solemn
silence, at the end of which time the bride and
bridegroom rose, facing the audience, the bride
gvoiiiii pronouncing the following words:
“1 in the presence of God, and of tfiis as
sembly take this woman to be my wedded wifi-,
: • musing, with divine assistance, to be to her
a faithful and loving husband, as’ long as we
t.-oili shall live.’
i’he bride, then, in a voice somewhat faiter
iwy, repeated a similar declaration, and both sal
<i wn. Two young men of the society then
placid before them a small table containing a
huge parchment scroll, which they opened, and
in presence of the assembly the bride and
groom, affixed their signatures. An elder of the
church then read the document aloud to the au
dience. It set forth that the parties had at a
regular monthly meeting preceding signified
their intention of marriage; that the society
had approved of the same, and that they by then
joint declarations and sii'iiatures arrived at
a “full accomplishment of their intentions.’’ lie
then stated that all the Friends were invited to
sign as witnesses after the close of the meeting.
After a few minutes more of silence the newly
married coiij ie suddenly rose and left the
church, and were followed by the whole con
gregation. The audience was well pleased with
the ceremony, which we think was the most
Sensible we ever saw.
Woman's Sphere.
WIIAT MRS. JONES SAID ABOUT IT.
BY FKANCIB D. GAGE.
•Here is something strange enough ’ said
Mrs. Jones, ‘I should like to know what talking
about Cooper apples has to do with woman’s
Rights? I suppose it’the Bornological Congress
was to decide that the women should eat rock
dunuers and cal! them soft and mealy, or vine
gar crabs without scowling, and assert they
were sweet and rich in flavor, we should be
bound to do and believe so without a murmur.
If apples do not belong to housewifery, what
does ? There is a9 many women to eat and
enjoy them in these goodly States as there are
men, and all the baking, boiling, stewing, roast
ing, preserving, Ac., legitimately belong to us.
Then why may not tt woman write about them?
But admitting that apples are only raised t.>
sell—raised for men only, to eat. and handle,
should not women still be interested ? I would
not give six Prolific Beauties for a wife or
daughter who was not interested heart and sou!
in her husband or father’s business. And she
who sits down contented at ail times folding her
hands with ‘Husband knows ai! about it,’with
out even taking the trouble to give one earnest
look or deeply interested thought to the out of
door matters from which she receives all her in
door comfort and happiness, may be a help
mate, but she is not the kelp meet that Cod in
his infinite wisdom designed a wife should
be. Nothing of real interest to the husband
should be a matter of indifference to the wife,
nor should the interests of t lie wife he a ms*ter
of indifference to the husband.
Tile re is a great deal said just now about
woman’s sphere, woman’s departm* nt, Ac. Now
girls, l will tell you the plain truth. If ever 1
had a sphere—a sphere peculiar to a woman —
fashioned afo-r the models of the present age, I
must have lost it a great many years ago.
The first fragment that slipped out of my fin
gers was when 1 was about eight years old,
when my go >d father set me in the side saddle
on old blind Dick, one bright A| ril morning,
and bade me guide the old fellow straight
through a half mile corn field,while Bob held the
plough. Oh, it was a glorious day, the sky
never was more clearly blue nor the clouds
more snowy white, and ‘.lie fresh fragrance la
den breezes of spring never bore them along
in more beautiful or varied forms— ever and
anon shaking down clear crystal drops upon un
blue calico sun-bonnet and home-spun dress. 1
cared not for the April sprinkle, not I. The ap
ple orchard was in full bloom, and the sugar
grove donning its fresh green, the wild violets,
buttercups, wake-robins and blue bells were
singing an anthem in the fence corners and
among the green grass. We let old Dick crop
the latter and rest his weary limbs, while 1
slipped down from my saddle and gathered rny
high apron full of the former, and Bob set down
upon the edge of the furrow and whistled back
an echo to the bob-white on the top of the post
and rail fence, or the lark that was surveying
the meadow fur her next summer's home. The
robins, blue jays and cat birds were bolding a
stockholers’ meeting in the orchard, and the
black birds busy as bees, picking the worms out
of the furrow.
‘Oh lit was so glolions and exciting, to ride
before tin- 1 lough out in the open fields, and my
heart drank in so much joy and gladness, and
my veins took in so much strength and health
’•bat it is jo wonder that I forgot to watch my
self, and let slip a large section of my sphere,
and it was ploughed under. 1 lost another
section going to mill when there was no boy on
the premises to go, and I never felt prouder,
notwithstanding my loss, than when my father
patted my sunburnt locks and told me 1 ‘was
really good tbr something.’ Another fragment
disappeared when l learned to call up and sad
dlo or harness the carriage horse, when mother
or sister needed him, and the men folks were
all at work: another when l saw a mischievous,
vicious horse about to kick and trample to
death a favorite nephew of five years old,—l for
got to faint, forgot to scream, or even hallo for
help, when 1 knew there was no help to be had,
—and rushed out resolutely and saved the dear
child’s life.
‘At another time when the thermometer
stood below zero, when the brothers were all
away and the chore man was sick, aud father
taken suddenly down with acute rheumatism. I
took the axe and chopped a hole through ice a
toot thick and gave water to forty or fifty head
of cattle and horses. Then about the iast bit of
that sphere, so boasted and so prized, slipped
under the ice and was gone forever: ’twas a sad
loss, tut it was let it go or let the stock choke
to death—and I chose to let it go. Yes, it was
all gone, not a bit of a sphere had I left, so I
resolved to make one to suit myself-—one that
would allow me to answer to the calls of neces
sity or the demands of duty, without fear or
hesitancy—a sphere made all of usefulness, ce
mented together with kindness, love and sym
pathy, and so solid and strong that no change
of circumstances, no bond of conventionalism
could either break or control it. Then instead
of shrinking myself within it. I took my station
out side, to travel whenever I pleased in its
pleasant paths; and let me tell you I have found
my home sphere,—just the thing for a wife
and mother—ami on its wide spread, elevated,
beautiful and harmonious surface I have buili
my platform of Woman's Rights, and on that
platform 1 intend to stand fearless and free
while 1 ear. stand at all—the platform of use
fulness, and l shall advocate with earnestness
the doctrine, that all the energies that God gave
to woman should be used to the very best advan
tage for herself, for her family and society.’
Here Mrs. Jones rolled up her knitting and
went out and mixed up a jar of buckwheat
cakes foi breakfast.-- o'iio Cultivator.
PUZZLING A YANKEE.
1 Americans,’ says that gem newspaper, the
‘Yankee Blade,* ‘are an inquisitive people; yet,
from ihe very necessity which this engenders,
there is no person who better understands the
art oi parrying and balllmg inquisitiveness in
another than a Yankee. We were quite amus
ed, recently, by an account given by a citv
friend of a colloquy which came of in a conn
try village, through which he was travelling
between himselt and one of the ‘natives,’ who
manifested an itching curiosity to pry into his
affairs.
‘tlow de dew?’ exclaimed the latter, hurst,
ing up to him as ho alighted for a few moments
at a hotel—‘recon l’v seen you somewhere,
fit now V
‘Oh, yes,’ was the answer, ‘no doubt; I have
been there often, in my life.’
•.Spose you are goin to— ’ (expecting the
name of the place to he supplied.)
‘Just—l go there regularly once a year.’
‘And you’ve just come from— ’
•Exactly, sir, you are entirely right; that is
:ny place of residence.’
‘Really now, dew tell! I ’spose you are a
lawyer, or may be a trader, or perhaps some
oth *r professhun or calling ?’
‘Yes, 1 have always pursued someone of
those professions.’
‘Got business in the country, eh?’
‘Yes, 1 am at this time engaged in travel
ling.
‘i see by your trunk you are from Boston—
anything stirring in Boston ?
‘Yes men, women, horses and carriages, and
attnious northeaster.’
•\ou don’t say so! Well, l declare now you
are larnal cute. What d’ye think they’ll do
with Sims'?’
‘Why, sir, it is rny opinion that they’ll ei
ther deliver him up to the claimant, or let him
j‘ )
I; ee.
•You’ve had a monstrous sight of rain ir.
Boston—did an awful sight of damage, I
spose !’
‘Yes, it wet all the buildings, and made the
streets damp—very damp, indeed .’
•Did'nt old Faneuil Hall get a soaking?’
‘No they hauled it onto the Common, under
Liberty Tree.’
‘You’re a circus chap, I guess ; you arc kin
der fboiin.’ Pray, Mister, it it is a civil ques
tion what might he your name?’
‘lt might be Smith or Brown, but it is not by
a long chalk. When I was born, my mother
was so busy that she forgot to name me, and
soon after 1 was swapped away by mistake for
another hoy, and am now just about, applying
to the- Legislature for a name. When 1 get it,
1 will send you my card, Good morning,
sir!’
And so saying, the speaker jumped into his
carriage, and drove of leaving the Paul Pry
scratching his head in bewilderment, and
evidently in more perplexity than ere he had
commenced his catechisings.

A Country Editor in Trouble.—The editor
of Thibodaux Minerva seems to have his hand*
tolerably full of late, being obliged not only to at

other household labors as well. Here him goon:

C' 1 . lu conjunction with our ordinary vocation as
editor, conductor and publisher ot our journal, we
have now to perform all loose devolving on the

cooking breakfast, washing the dishes, feeding th-.
poultry, cleaning p the kitchen, sweeping out
the house, making up the beds, dusting the furni

whose duty is to wield the oistaff. Second, write
our editorials, compose a part of them, correct
proofs, put the matter in form, lock it up, put it on

A KISS FOR CHARITY’S SAKE.
At a race-course in Normandy, some English
men were admiring the picturesque and historic
costume o! the women of the country. Several ot
these gentlemen jockeys, slightly excited by the
impression of their dejeuner, w ere gathered togeth
er in a knot, admiring not only the costume but
the captivating faces of the women of Normandy,
whose beauty was heightened by the piquant orig
nality of their lofty lace head-gear. These sports
men were uttering their comments on the passers
by in aloud tone of voice, when their attention
was arrested by the extraordinary beauty of a
young woman, evidently just married, who at that
moment passed bv. She was walking in the midst
ol a group of country lads and lasses in their silk
dresses and long-tailed,short-waisted, black coats,
and in the company might be seen the black cas
sock of ihe cure and vicar of the parish.
‘What a beauty,’ exclaimed one of the sports
men,‘on my honor. I’d give two sovereigns fora
kiss of her rosy cheek,’
‘Hallo! here’s a bifstek, who says he’ll give two
sovereigns to kiss our Louise,’ said a bumpkin in
black velvet vest and hob-nailed shoes.
‘Ah! ah!’ cried several of the girls together, ‘how
generous, two louis are not Peru!’
•Well; then I’ll give three,’ said the English
man!’
The young woman to whom the provocation was
addressed, looked towards the Englishman, and
smiling, said,‘lt would give you a great deal of
pleasure, then Monsieur?*
‘Oh, an immense deal!’
‘Well, in that case,’ continued she, after a little
hesitation, ‘give five louis and here’s my cheek.’
Tims challenged, his liberality would not have
backed out had it cost him twenty guineas. Tilt
live golden pieces were drawn from tiis purse aud
placed in the young woman's hands, who honestly
performed her pv.rt of the contract and received a
Ijraee of kisses.
‘What a windfall,’ cried she, gaily; ‘Here, M.
le Cure, are five gold nieces for the poor of our par
ish.’
As she finished, acclamations arose on all sides—
•Ol), il that is to be the use of the money, a guinea
more for the poor,’ said the spurts man, and the ac.
clamations were louder than ever.
A DEiM^ORABLfTcA^E.
A western paper relates the following, which we
hope may be a warning to all such in our county
as persist in the course pursued by their western
exemplar:
“ I’he man that don’t take his county paper v as
in town yesterday. He brought his whole family
in a two horse wagon He still believed that Gen
eral Taylor was President, and wanted to know if
the Kamchatkians’ bad taken Cuba, and if so,
where they had taken it. He had sold his corn for
twenty tive cents, the price being thirty-one; but
upon going to depositethe money, they told him it
was mostly counterfeit. The only hard” money he
had was some three cent pieces, and those some
sharper had ‘run on him’ for half dimes! His old
lady smoked a ‘cob pipe.’ and would not believe
that anything else could be used. One of the boys
went to a blacksmith’s shop to be measured for a
pair of shoes, aud another mistook the market house
fir a church. After hanging his hat on a meat
hook, he piously took a seat on a butcher’s stall
and listened to an auctioneer, whom lie took to be
ihe preacher. He left before ‘meetin’ was out,’
and had no great opinion of the ‘sarmit.’
“One of the girls took a lot of ‘seed onions’ to
the post office to trade them for a letter. She had
a baby, which she carried in a ‘sugar trough,’
stopping at times to rock it on the side walk.
When it cried, she staffed its mouth with an old
stocking, and sang ‘Barbara Allen.’ The oldest boy
had sold two ‘coon skins’ and was on a ‘bust.’
W iien last, seen, be had called for a glass of ‘soda
and water,’ and stood soaking ginger bread and
making wry faces. The shop keeper, mistaking
his meaning, had given him a mixture of sal soda
and water, and it tasted strongly of soap. But
he’d hearn teil of sody and water, and was bound
to give it a ‘air trial, ‘puke or puke.’ Some
•town fellow’ came in and called for lemonade
with a‘flv in it,’ whereupon our ‘soaped’ friend
turned his back and quietly wiped several flies
into his drink.
“We approached the old gentleman and tried to
get him to‘subscribe,’ but lie would not listen to it.
He was opposed to‘internal improvements,’ and he
thought “larnin was a wicked invention, and culier
waten nothin’ hut wanity and wexation.’ None ol
his family ever learned to read, but one bov, and
lie leached school awhile, and then went to studying
div. inity
A ttUACK answered. A quack in Boston
visiting his patient one morning was accosted
thus:
‘Doctor, pray what is it that keeps the meat
and drink apart in the stomach?’
‘l’ll tell you,’says the quack; in every per
son’s throat there are two pipes and a clapper;
now when we go to eat, the clapper shuts the
drinking pipe,’,Well doctor, replied the pa
tient ‘that clapper must play darned sharp when
we eat pudding and milk!’
‘See here, how long will these locust rails
last?’ inquired a traveller of a western urchin’
while riding past a long staring offence made
of this material.
‘They’ll last forever responded the boy, in
a confident tone.
‘Forever! 5 exclaimed the stranger ‘how do
you know that?’
‘Why, my father tried it twice, and I guess
I ought to know by this lime,’ said the lad, very
gravely.
A Safe Bet.—Several gentlemen were riding
in a caron one of the Boston railroads a few days
ago, when the conversation turned on tlie next
Presidential election, and the merits and prospects
ot Webster, Fillmore, Scott, Cass and others, were
discussed at large. After some time, a solemn in-’
dividual who had listened in silence, addressed the
party thus: ‘-.My friends you are all of you wrong
Before ti e election of 1852, the world will have
come to an end, and Jesus Chri-t w ill he the Presi
dent ot the Universe!’’ Upstarted an enthusiastic
gentleman from the Granite State who stutteringly
said to the Millerite— - ‘S-sir I’ll b-b-bet. you ten
b-d-d-dollars New Hampshire w-w-w wont g-go for
him! ’ A roar of laughter greeted the pxit of the
Second Advent man as he removed himself to
another ear.
A Cunning Fox.—An English paper relates
the following: A fainter had discovered that a
fox came along a beam in the night to seize
his poultry. He accordingly sawed the end ol
beam nearly through; & in the night the fox fell
into a place whence he could not escape. On
going to him in the morning, he found him
stiff, and as he thought, lifeless. Taking him
out of the building, he threw him on the dung
hill. but iu a short time Reynard opened his
eyes, and seeing all was safe and dear, gallop
ed away to the mountains, showing more cun
ning than the man who ensnared him.
Tobacco and Theology —Believing the
use of 1 obaceo,as a pmsonal luxury, wheth
er in the form of smoking, snuffing, or
chewing, to he an injurious habit, uncleanly,
unhealthy and expensive; and fearing that the
use cf this pernicious article, is rapidly in.
creasing in many sections of our land, partic
ularly among the young: Therefore.
Resolved, That this Convention raise a
Committee, composed of a suitable number,
which Committee shall collect statistics rela
ting to the sale and use, to the pecuniary and
moral hearings of this narcotic weed, and
report to this body at some future meeting what
action, if any action, should be taken iu the
premises.
The above preamble and resolution were
passed at the Convention of Congregational
Ministers recently held in Boston, and Rev.
George Trask of Fitchburg, Rev. John Pierpont
of Medway, and Rev. Leonard Woods, I). D.
of Andover, were appointed to act as the In
vestigating and subsequently Reporting Com
mittee therein mentioned. What is more dis
gusting to the purity of taste, manners, morals
and religion, than snuffing, the smoking, or the
chewing of tobacco, in a clergyman, a minister
of the Gospel: a “legate of the skies’,; one
vyhoin above a!! other men ofall other occupa
tions, should at all times, and in all places, be
in ail things pure, among the people of his pas
toral care.

Convulsive Fits Cured!
GEORGIA: ) 1 hereby certify that in the spring of 1845
Jasper County, \my negro girl Chanty was attacked w ith
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, l con
cluded to carry her to Macon and put her under the treatment
of Dr. M. S. Thomson, who gave her medicine somp two or
three months, which stopped them for about 18 months, at
which time they returned w ith increased violence, so severe,
indeed, that 1 and an eminent physician in the neighborhood de
spaired of her life. Under these circumstances the Doctor a
gain advised me to call en 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, but they have not
recurred since, a period of over three years.
Given under my haud and seal, this-Ist November 1850.

Fits cured without seeing the Patient!!
Joses Cos. Ca. 7th Feb. 1851.
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
every week or two, and sometimes continued on her for a
week at a time, during which she would have as many asfor
ty or fifty on a stretch, before stopping. Intliis state she con
tinued for a whole year, notwithstanding all Dr. Itidley of
Hillsboro, could do. Despairing nt last of his success, and
hearing of the unprr.ielled cures effected by Dr. M. 8. Thom
son of Macon, I concluded to call on him. which 1 did, and
gave 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 perfecly healthy, thus adding
another to the many cures the Doctor has effected without
seeing the patient.

Syphilis, Rheumatism & Liver Complaint
Cured without seeing the Patient!
Joses Cos. Ga. 21st. Sept. 1850.
Dr. M. 8. Thomson —Dear Sir: Your success has been
sttch in curing my son of Rheumatism and my negro woman
of liver disease. Rheumatism, Syphilis &c. that 1 carvhot re
frain from giving you th< 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 rel lion of facts is at your disposal.
Some 14 years ago, my negro woman Rhody was taken in
a lingering way, supposed to be caused from Syphilis, treated
by herself, which on discovering, I put her under the care
of teveral mineral physicians, Drs. Kittle aud White of Mil*
ledgevilie, 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 after a while, she became worse again, so
much so that I 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 longtime ago, she has had
no return of her disease since, but is now doing me very good
service.
The case of my son was one of Mercurial Rhematism ari
sing from salivation for a fever. After keeping lingering for
three or four years, and getting worse ail the time, till his
limbs were drawn and stiffened very much; notwithstanding
all tiiat wecoulddo, he 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.
lii conclusion, dear sir, go on and prosper, you may have’ene.
inies, 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, GILLIS 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 be greatly increased by
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, isstrange, but that hundreds are
thus cured, is no more strange than true.
In order that all, 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 all those who are able to pay, and freely and grat
uitously to those who are not, provided they pay their postage.
His Infirmary is open for the reception of Negroes; and for
other cases requiring his personal attention, City accommoda
tions are ample.
He still continues the treatment of acute cases, in town or
in the immediate surrounding country, but cannot leave the
city to go long distances except in cases of most urgent neces
sity. Being possessed of some of the latest improvements in
surgical apparatus, he is prepared to treat fractures, disloca
tions, &.C. in a manner superior to the plans usually adopt
ed and calculated to succeed in many instances when these
would inevitably fail.

Gentlemen:— You: Hebrew Plaster has cured
me of pains of which I have suffered 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,
out without obtaining relief. At length I used your
Plaster, and am now by its good effects entirely
cured. I will recommend the Jew David or He

its use. Yours, truly,

Messrs. Scovil &, Mead: I have been troubled
with the chronic rheumatism for the last twelve

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, and I slept more than half of the night,

A SAFE and certain cure for Coughs, cold?,
Croup, Asthma, Consumption of the Lungs,
Spitting of Blood, Bronchitis, Hooping Cough, and
ail I’ulmonary affections;
O’ A Lovely Young Lady Cured ol
Consumption!!
The following is from the pen of Wm. ll.Levi
son. Esq., the distingnised editor of the United
Stales Military and Naval Argus, under date New
York, January 28, 1850. 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 the patent medicine way; that when we
seethe life of fellow-creature saved by the use o
any medicine whatever, we consider it as our
right, if not our duty, to give a simple statement of
facts, tiiat others may, in like manner, be benefit
led. 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 effect c-r benefit.—
The Cough grew worse, with copious expectora
: tion, and the sunken eye, and pale, hollow cheek,
told plainly that pulmonary disease was doing its
worst on her delicate Irame. The family physi
cian was consulted, and although he would not ad
mit to tli l young lailv that she really had the Con
sumption, yet he would give no encouragement as
to a cure. At this crisis her mother was persuad
ed to make use of a bottle of Dr. Rogers’ Com
pound Syrup of Liverwort and Tar, and we are
happy to state she was perfectly cured m loss than
three months by this medicine alone, after even
hope was destroyed. It is useless to comment on
such a case as this, for the simple truth will reach
where polished fiction never can. If any doubt
the authority of this statement, I°t them call at
this office.— U. S. Military and Naval Argus , No

Dr. Rogf-rs’ Syrup of Liverwort and Tar.—
VVe have heard of several important cuies recent
ly effected by this excellent medicinal preparation,
and in one instance that came under our observa
tion, we can speak confidently. One of our em
ployees, who had suffered severely from a long
standing cold, during the pa>t week commenced
the use of this medicine, and his Cold has entire
ly disappeared.

Liverwort and Tar.— Of the virtues of Dr.
Rogers’ Cough Medicines prepared from the above
articles, it is needless now to speak; its efficacy in
speedily curing Coughs, Colds, and other lung
complaints, which too frequently, if neglected, re
sult in Consumption, is too well established in pub
lic confidence to need eulogy now.

testimony in favor ol the curative properties of Dr.
Rogers’ Compound Syrup of Liverwort and Tar,
