Europe has apparently returned fo its
normal state of diplomatic intrigues, de
cent despotism, petty quarrels, and gen
eral expansion of industrial enterprises.
Most of the victims of the revolutions of
1818 have been released from prison.—
Throughout Germany, the King of Prussia
is the only one of the Ge.tnan princes who
has net cleared his dungeons. The King
of Naples is likewise chary with pardons;
and the recent attempt on his life and the
speedily oppressed insurrection in Sicily,
are not likely to induce him to do more in
the line of clemency. As to Napoleon lie
continues to rule with an iron hand. It is
as dangerous at Paris to criticise his gov
ernment as it was in Russia under Nicho
las to meddle with politics. Still, the fi
nancial crisis has disappeared in France;
and even in Austria the Rank is fa6t ap
proaching a healthy state, so that within
the next ten months it may resume cnsli
payment. Accordingly, everything looks
quite smooth on the Continent, though no
body believes in the stability of the present
state of things.
The Neapolitan question has blown over,
nnd England and France, instead of win
ning golden opinions in Italy, have become
ridiculous throughout the penensnla, im
pairing the position of their protege, the
King of Sardinia. Spain has at the pres
ent moment to struggle with an approach
ing famine, which renders people less
tractable, and the ahsolntest plans of the
Queen must therefore, he adjourned for a
more prosperous time. As regards the
Parisian Conferences, there is now no
longer any difficulty to he apprehended
about them. Russia must yield in the
question of Bolgrad, and expects only to
' be allowed to do so without loss of digni
ty.
But while Europe looks quite pacified,—
for nobody believes in a serious collision
between Prussia and Switzerland. There
are more serious troubles in store in the
East. England has declared war against
Persia on account of her attack and proba
ble capture of Herat; and a combined
Anglo-French and American expedition to
the Chinese waters is likewise talked of,
in order to induce the Emperor of China
to grant some privileges to the commercial
nations of the world, in return for which
the English and French will grant their
assistance to the Emperor against the
rebels. The scheme seems very plausible,
but it may, together with the Persian Ex
pedition, embroil the English nation in a
struggle far more severe than is expected
since in Persia, as well as in China, Russia
lurks in the background, able to counteract
any English scheme. The English papers
do not believe that the Czar will dare to
give liisassisteuce to Persia against Eng
land; hut they do not seem to be sufficient
ly well informed of the resources which
Russia has at the disposition of the Czar,
whose popularity is undoubted.

The Extent of Lobby Business.— ■//w ,i e Engaged
in it ! ! The liny Members of Congress Trade
Atcay their Pririlegtsand Oct Rich, \c.
Your denunciation ot" lobby members, &c., has
created a good ih-al oi Mattering amongst that
class of patriots. Whilst you do them tall jus-
tice, you do not go for enough in exposing the
evils of legislation here. Th • “lobby members’"
and by this term is included ex-members, news
paper correspondents, and fellows like Thurlow
Weed, who, having graduated at Albany and
around the Common Council balis in New York,
now infest tbis city as regularly fledged practi
tioneis—could do but little damage, if they did
no; And amongst the m-rnbers themselves tin- most
corrupt and pliant tool*. This is the difficultv.
It is well known here that many members—aye,
and even Senators—who came to Congress poor,
are now weathy. Some of these scamps unblush-
ingly avow the fact that they have become rich by
being interested in the passage of bills; and al
though this avowal is noi a secret to perhaps a
single member in the House, no one seems to have
the courage to move for their expulsion. When
you inquire of honorable members—men like
Letcher, Jones, Haven, Cobb, (I mean of Geor
gia) why they do not take some action to try and
purge Congress, the reply is, that attempt would
lie futile. Nothing could be proved, for members
who would accept bribes would not hesitate to
swear themselves clean. The mass of Northern
members are corrupt, especially those of recent
growth; whilst it is equally true that the mass of
Southern members are honest, high toned and
above suspicion. This statement of the compo
sition Of the existing Congress is a melancholy '
washing of dirty linen in the face of the world ;
but the evil has become so glaring, the danger so
imminent, that nothing remains but a combination
of public opinion to remedy it.
The reasons of the greater honesty of Southern
members arise from the fact that they are not
obliged to resort to the practices which so genera.ly
prevail at the North, in order to secure their elec
tion : and consequently a better class of men is
returned. In the North, through the odious and
demoralizing system of primary elections—a sys
tem which in nine cases out often succeeds in giv
ing the nomination to the man who pays highest
•or it—the aspirant for Congressional honors loses
his self-respect from the beginning. From paying
money to be elected, it is an easy and natural
transition to receive money for influence and votes
after he is elected. And thus it is that many seek
position in Congress simply to make money, utter
ly oblivious to the wrong, and neither caring for or
feeling the degradation.
I have in my mind’s eye at this moment a mem
ber from one of the interior districts of a State not
a thousand miles from where tlie Herald is printed,
who boasted a couple of years ago that his re-
election cost him $35,000, but that he would make
it pay, nevertheless. And it is but doing justice
to the honorable member to say he is greatly slan
dered if he has not kept his word. Such are the
materials out of which it is expected Congress
will become an honest body if “lobby members'"
j are excluded from the floor. No, sir ; you must
! strike deeper; you must first inoculate a healthy
! moral sentiment throughout the country, abolish
primary elections and hold members when elected
I to a strict accountability, personal and prompt, for
I every act. before you can ever hope for a reform.
3 It may he deemed a jest, but it is only a plain
fact, that some members are so anxious to “turn
t m honest penny"’ that they will sell their seats on
{ the floor, when they happen to be well located, to
1 other members less fortunate in their selection, but
! who have cash wnerewith to better themselves. A
member from New England thus sold his seat last
| session to a New York member for $10(1, nnd this
session, being again fortunate in drawing a good
seat, lie sold it to another New York member for
S50. Some might argue that a seat being in its
f’ort,mouth, Siuiihamptou, and Wight, au-i e\i-|
T have described them all, ) dently afforded cordial gratification to the A men-1

Ortwin? the Chinese Sugar Cane.
Messrs. Editors:—As the Chinese Su
gar Cane is attracting the attention of the
community, anil it is likely to he of great
value to the farmers of the United States,
and as you have given us an article on the
subject in No. 1, vol. XI., of the Scientific
American, 1 thought I would write down
and send you the result of my own expe
rience in the growing of this plant.
Some time during the last winter, I ob
tained about three hundred seeds of the
"Sorgha Sucre” from the patent office,
which I planted on the 1st of May last, on
land that had been cleared three years
ago. I laid the field off in checks three
feet apart for con.. In some of these hills
I planted the seeds for this sugar cane,
dropping eight seeds in a hill, making
thirty-seven hills in all. I worked the
cane precisely as I did the corn, giving it
three plowings and three hoeings.
In four months from the time the seeds
were planted the cane was fully matured.
It then measured ten feet six inches high,
aud one inch and three eighths in diameter
at tlie butt end. The joints average twelve
in number to the cane, measuring from six
to eleven inches long, the shortest at the
bottom and the longest at the top. As
soon as the seed was ripe, another head of
seed put up out of the second joint from
the top, and in a short time grew as high
as the original head, though not quite so
large. By the time the seed on this head
began to turn dark a third head sprung up
from the tiiird joint, which was about the
size of the last head, and now a forth head
is making its appearance from a forth joint.
"Where this shooting forth of new heads
would end if no frost should come to kill it,
I cannot tell. The roots, where I cut off
some of the canes some time ago, are send
ing up sprouts, some of which are four
inches high.
I am of the opinion of the Sorgha Sucre
is a perennial plant, and would grow all
the time if there were no severe cold to
kill it. It appears to surpass anything we
can plant for producing fodder for cattle.
There are commonly twelve leaves on a
cane, and these measure on an average
three feet long, and three and a half broad.
"We commonly plant two stalks of corn in
a hill. I had eight canes in the same
space, each cane producing full as much
fodder as one stalk of corn. At this rate
which is to me matter of fact, one acre of
cane will produce as much as four acres of
com. But I am pursuaded that I might
have planted the cane in drills of three
feet apart dropping eight seeds in every
space of eighteen inches, and by this means
have eight times as much fodder as corn
would produce.
One head that 1 picked up at random
measured three gills, and one gill contain
ed eight hundred seed. I then selected a
large head measured it and found it to con
tain four and a half gills of seed. The 37
hills that I planted produced three pecks
of seed, this after diving it two days in the
sun, weighed 32 pounds. I had no mill
to squeeze the cane, in order to make ex-
{ leriments in syrup and sugar. I made a
ittle roller which 1 though might press out
some of the sap, but it was a failure, for
wart of sufficient power. I twisted a joint
in my hands after being flattened with the
roller and obtained about a half a gill of
sap which was as sweet as any of the sap,
of the sugar cane of the South. I intend,
Providence permitting to plant at least
half an acre next spring, and produce a
proper mill and boilers, and make a thor
ough experiment. Jos. McKee.

Suspcsn/on Bridges rs, Hurricanes.—A
writer in giving tui account of the recent
gale at the North, remarks:
“Niagara Falls must have presented a
grand sight Sunday, during the gale—
when, at Clifton, (Suspension Bridge,)
trees were torn up, small tenements,
shanties and outbildings overturned, and
their fragments strewed over the field in
every direction. The volume of water
uii.cn over the Falls of Niagara was truly
appalling, carrying with it drift wood, logs
f - m the ""harves and shores
• i° i • ^ 10 ® us P en ®ion Bridge was con-
si Jered in great danger. The toll gates
were for a time deserted, and many an
anxious eye tremblingly awaited the de
struction of this magnificent fracture
But the hurricane in all its terrible fury
swept by leaving the airy edifice unscath
ed.”
la *k.-:cicug u you this l ti oi t!
tribe of lobby agent
orra.fieri have nhvsatv tie .jev> ■ of i
ual portraimre. Tin-re are much older im iuin ts
ot the lobby, much higher in position, both social
aiio practical, but the genius of the man was
shown in his almost instant ascent from the bum-
blest to the highest place in hi- prufo-sion. At
“picking and stealing"’ Weed is so incomparably
their superior that the most adroit of his rivals ad
mit themselves to be nowhere, tie it was—so
goes the rumor—that instituted the new system of
buying members instead of buying their friends,
and of fixing a tariff for votes at cash prices, in
stead of throwing away upon uncultivated and un-
appreciating palates, delicate cuisinerie and gener
ous wines. The business became thus simplified
and systematized.
It is unnecessary to enumerate the other mem
bers of the lobby, or to specify the various schemes
for thieving which they w ill bring to the attention
of Congress, all for the good of the country and
the benefit of the people. They will ail pass
through Thurlow's crucible befere being submit
ted for legislative action. They will all receive
the touch of his master hand, and all pay toll aud
tribute to him or his corps of weighers, gaugers
and receivers. As nobody will be responsible for
what is to be done at this session, the probable
amount of stealing, directly and indirectly, to be
extracted from the national exchequer is almost in
calculable. Still a brief statistical view of this
important branch of business, though imperfect,
will afford the uninitiated an idea of what is go
ing forward. Here is a list of prominent schemes,
with the estimated plunder expressed in acres aud
dollars:
Pacific Rail Road (120,000.000) acres, 8150,000,000
Other State A Territorial Rail Roads, 2o 000,000
Return of fire duties, 1,000,000
Chaff-e, Hayward & Woodward patent
extension,
McCorwick’s reaper pa lent extension, "
Hudson’s Hay and Puget's Sound Com
panies’ possessory rights, *
Private land claims in California,
Bounties to specuhoors in claims of rev
olutionary officers and soldiers,
French spoliation claims,
Interest on the same,
.Miscellaneous plunder,
Total, exclusive of land, $210,000,000
Here, you will say, is a mass of plunder that
might file the dullest genius that ever came to the
practice of the new art.
F’rom considerations of delicy I have forborne
to mention the names of many distinguished gen
tlemen, lieutenants and privates, in Thurlow's
army—ex-Senators, members of the House. Judges,
Ministers, Governors, and so and so on. They
are confined to no section nor party. The North
has the most of them, perhaps; hut the South con
tributes her full proportion, and the most success
ful of the confederates is an actual Southern Gov
ernor, and three or four Southern Senators in and
out of office. Perhaps it is unjust to say that in
Thurlow you sec them all. In fact, there arc many
fine, lib-ral, bold and open gentlemen among
them, who regard the public as a goose that is
bound to be plucked by the skillful to prevent its
dropping its feathers among clod-hoppers and
bumpkins in this the season ot moulting.

.Here Encouragement to l>»spcpflcs.
Mr. Herty, Sir, You will recollect that I prom
ised you if “BLISS’ DYSPEPTIC REMEDY,"’
proved to be a m -dicine worthy of recommendation,
that I would, after a fair trial, let you hear from me.
. _ My wife, having suffered for years from Dvs-
t token of love, admiration, and respect to your i pepsia, had used many remedies recommended,
countrymen and of tlie President of the Unite
States, to restore her to you, not only as an evi- j
deuce of a friendly feeling to your sovereignty, but!
nature more permanent than a vote, the man who
would sell the former might al-o have a price for
the latter. I make no such charge, however:
but I would like to he able to hope the member in
question is a solitary instance—his own model and
exemplar. -
Of course it is not to be expected that, as a gen
eral tiling, parties having claims before Congress,
or desiring the passage of measures just in them
selves and advantageous to the country, can al
ways take charge of them in person. They have
not tin necessary inf innation or knowledge of par
liamentary forms—they may not have the talent
to properly present their case to the committees or
furnish information to nit inbers. 1 "pon the same
principle few persons conduct their own suits be
fore a Court—though they possess the privilege.
It is found more desirable to employ counsel—men
who, having devoted their attention and talent to
| the study and practice of the law. are prepared to
| present the views and represent the interests of
I their clients in a clearer and more satisfactory
1 manner than could be expected of a layman. The
< practice, either before the departments of tire gov-
•rnment or the committees of Congress, is no less
intricate flu n that of the Courts. It requires at
least an equal amount of study, legal information,
and even a larger experience. It is for this rea
son that in England parliamentary solicitors are
recognized as necessary, and they have the privi
lege of appearing before the different committees
and presenting their views, either orally or in wri
ting. This is what is required here. It would
put down lobbying; and whilst members would
have an opportunity of becoming fully informed
on the subjects presented to their consideration, it
would free them from the annoyance and corrup-
1 tions which now surround them. Eet a system
f be introduced that none but regular members of
( the bar and tlie principles are to be beard in a rase,
and h‘t the committee receive arguments, oral or
j otherwise, keeping a record and making up their
j decisions upon such arguments and evidence. It
! will tend not only to purify legislation, but it will
1 give the reports of the committees a wei ht and
.importance which they now lack—made tip as they
• are upon testimony which is never placed on re-
! cord, and upon arguments which though they may
| have the jingle of tlie true metal, are more frequent-
i !v pocketed than laid before Congress.

j In be Obtained from this Congress—Change in
1 Tactics. *
- The rights and privileges of the lobby at Wasli-
1 ington must be definitely settled. Very serious
disputes have arisen concerning them. Who are
■ eligible to admis'ioa to The fraternity ? By whom
j shall the members be chosen or appointed ? How
! long shall they serve ? What shall be the rates
■ and manner of payment ? All these are questions
< which must be speedily adjusted, or the harmonv
1 and efficiency of the brotherhood will be impaired,
| if not in time wholly destroyed.
i For example, now, who put Thurlow YVeed at
1 the head of tlie lobby, and made him the general
j commission broker, even as to those “unclean
; drippings” which are not arranged to fall directly
into his hat? Thnrlow YY”eed has become perma
nent chairman of what may be called the Third
House of Congress. He is, therefore, a power in
the State. He has access to the floor at all times,
and members are beginning to inquire quite earn
estly, under what rule does Thurlow come iti? He
is not a member, nor an ex-mrmber, a reporter
nor an ex-reporter. What business, say the un
sophisticated—what business lias Mr. Thurlow
Weed on the floor of either house ? Ah ! simple
minded seeker after truth. Thurlow has business
in and about, vour hall, compared with which the
puny transactions that come under your cogni
zance are the most diminutive of small potatoes
and the thinest of small beer. Weed’s extensive
and various engagements necessarily make him a
peripatetic operator. His time may be thus divid

Her Majesty’s barque Resolute formed one of
Sir Edward Belcher’s squadi on of discovery, and

Captain Iv llett, It. N., to the Polar seas in search
of Cur John Franklin and for scientific purposes.
She was—. r, since deliverance enables us to speak
of hn as of a ship restored to life, i- t us rather say
she is—a stout, square built vessel of 5011 tons.
She is donbh-decked and double-planked through
out, in order to withstand (lie pressure of ice, and
she carries brass guns—six-pounders. Her build
ers, having regard to the cimifirt^of her officers
and crew in tiie Arctic seas, fitted her with an in
genious heating apparatus, the furnace of which
is inserted in the mainhold, while steampipes,
running fore and aft through the body of the ves
sel, maintained an agreeable temperature even
when the thermometer had fallen much below
zero. When she left the government dock-yard
she was liberally provided with everything re
quisite for her perilous voyage, aud, both as re
gards structure and equipment, was admirably
adapted for the service in which she was to be en
gaged. Owing to her peculiar build, she is ne
cessarily a dull sailer, but she a very strong ship,
and what the Americans call “a good sate sea-
boat.” Notwithstanding, however, the caie be
stowed on her construction, she was not fated to
fulfil the purposes for whichsbe was designed. She
was frozen in among the icebergs in latitude 77
deg. N., and in tlie month of May, 1654, her ofii-
cersaud crew filially abandoned herleaving their ef
fects on board. She^had remained in the iceberg six
teen mouths, when a large portion of the iee n
which she was embedded becoming detached from
tin- mass by a thaw, it floated off with her, leaving
her at the mercy id’ wind and wax c, and hurrying
her out to remote seas, where, in latitude (iti deg.
3o min. and longitude 64 deg., she was found in
the month of September, J655, by the American
whaler George llenry. commanded by Captain
Buddington. She had then drifted over the wil
derness of waters about I,‘Joti miles from the spot
where she was abandoned. -Captain Buddington
and a part of his crew approached her over the iee,
aud took up their quarters within her. They
found “a death-like silence and a dread repose,"
for, except themselves, there was not a living
thing on board. In the words of Dr. Maeown, the
surgeon of the ship, who has written a pretty
poem on the subject—
Her wooden walls were tenantless;
No more the busy throng
Cheered the lone decks through Arctic nights
With music and with song.
The bold aud gallant cr> w had fled
That once she gladly bore.
In search of Franklin and his men,
From Albion s happy shore. .
The ship was found not to have sustained any
very material damage. The ropes, indeed, were
hard, and inflexible as chains: the rigging was
stiff, and crackled at the touch; the tanks in the
hold had hurst, tiie iron work was rusted, the paint
j was discolored with bilge water, and the topmast
and topgallant mast were shattered, hut the hull
had escaped unscathed, and the ship was not hurt
in any vital part. There were three or four feet
of water in tlie hold, but she had not sprung aleak.
The cordage was coiled in neat little circles on
tlie deck, after the fashion of English seamen, and
the sails were frozen to such stiffness as to resem
ble sheets of tin. Sever.-1 thousand pounds of
gunpowder were found < u hoard, somewhat de
teriorated in quality, yet good enough for such
purposes as firing salutes. Some of the scientific
instruments were injured by exposure and rust,
but others were in excellent condition. F’or a
year and four months no human foot had trod the
deck of that phantom ship, yet, amid those sav
age solitudes, where man there was none, and
might never he, the pilot’s u heel made a stern
proclamation, for around it were inscribed in letters
of brass the immortal words, “England expects
that every man will do his duty.” If for “man”
had been printed tin- word “seal” or “whale, ’ the
sentiment might have had a more practical signi
ficance. Captain Buddington remained on board
Majesty personally.
The Queeu seemed touched by the manly sim
plicity' of this frank and sailor-like address, and
replied, with a gracious smite, “I thank you, sir.”
idle royal family then went over the ship and
examined her with manifest interest Captain
Hartstein traced her course on a map, and indi
eated the most important discoveries of the Arctic
expeditions. In tlie course of conversation, Lieut.
I’im observed that Lady Franklin was very
anxious for another search; to which Captain
Hartstein replied that he was not surprised that
she should he so, for lie thought it very possible
that Franklin or some of his comrades might be
still alive among the Esquenmux.
After completing tin- inspection of the ship, the
royal party re ired anrid the royal enthusiastic ac
clamations of the spectators.

Dear Slits: We began sellingPery Davis’Pain
[ Killer with very little effort on our part; sales
were small at first, hut as it became known in our
community, the demand increased very rapidly,
far beyond our expectations, and every person
that bought it would come after more, and speak
in the highest terms of it as a valuable remedy for
all those diseases your pamphlet spoke of. From
these recommendations we were induced to use it
in our own families, and now continue its use with
great satisfaction. YVe have sold more of the
Pain Killer than we ever have since or before of
any other medicine in the same length of time;
and we do not hesitate to say that it has given bet
ter satisfaction to the purchaser, than any other
article we have ever sold. Hurry of business has
prevented our sending certificates, but we have in
our vicinity from fifteen hundred to two thousand
living witnesses, who testify to their neighbors,
day by day, of the value of Davis’ Pain Killer.

but congratulate ourselves that we have provoked
so satisfactory a response to the demands of the
Southern Democracy. It is true the IntMgencer
deals only in negative denunciations and vague
generalities; but much may b>‘ conveyed by the
spirit of an article, and for the absence of positive
information we are indemnified by the assurance
that Bigler does not speak the sentiments of Mr.
Buchanan, and that Benton is notin his confidence
So far, certainly, so good. But that is not all
Our cotemporary near Wheatland denies that Mr.
Buchanan has avowed his purposes to any body,
and refers us to the Cincinnati Platform for the on
ly authoritative “adumbration” of his policy.
This is good again; but the InteUigenctr goes even
farther, and declares that Mr. Buchanan will ad
here to the pledges of his nomination, will conform
to the principles of the State Rights Democracy,
and in his administration will illustrate his fidelity
to the Constitution and his impartial regard for all
the various sections and interests of the confeder
acy. The Enquirer, concludes our cotemporary,
“may reiterate its expression of confidence in the
President elect.”
The Enquirer never intimated any mistrust of
the President elect. In his antecedent history, in
the principles of the party platform, and in the
peculiar obligations which bind him to the Democ
racy of the South, we find every possible guaran
tee of the fidelity to our ii atitutions. Mr. Buch
anan is not the man, we take it, to blot tbe consist
ent record of his life by a treacherons sacrifice of
principle to timid suggestions of expedience. Un- [
] less we entirely misconceive his character, it is not 3d Monday.
. in his nature to turn his back upon men who have
! supported him with such generous confidence and
| ardor of friendship as the Democracy of the South
j displayed in the recent canvass. With these satis-
| factory pledges on his part we might patiently
: await the official development of his policy, if it
I were not for the impertinent declarations of indi-
I viduals who are understood to be ia his confidence.
! P is not that we fear Mr. Buchanan, but the effect
of such positive representations of his purposes.
It is very far from our wish to attempt any
like dictation to the President elect, but whei
ers pretend to speak by his authority, we have a
right to rebuke their presumption. We are per-
fcctlv willing that Mr. Buchanan should determine
the policy' of his administration from the sugges
tions of his own wisdom, but when persons with
whom he sustains intimate relations commit him,
in the opinion of the public, to a course in which
the Democracy of the .South cannot concur, it is
our duty to admonish him of our dissent. It is a
service to the President elect to inform him of the
feelings and position of the Southern Democracy.
It is their prerogative to declare their sentiments,
and to protest in evidence against a policy adverse
to their interests, and inconsistent with the engage
ments upon which they rely for the protection of
their rights. So far from betraying any unneces
sary impatience or anxiety, in regard to the meas
ures of the incoming administration, they have
exhibited remarkable forbearance, and a very gen
erous confidence. The Pacific Rail Road letter,
though in direct contradiction to the principles of
the State Rights Democracy of the South, was
treated with the utmost delicacy aud reserve, espe-
j eia.l v by the Richmond Enquirer.
l In conclusion, we repeat, that we need not the
I indefinite protestations of the ancaster lnielligen-
{ rer to assure us of the good faith of the President
I elect; nor do we want its advice to persuade us of
] the propriety of awaiting the official promulgation
\ of his policy. But, the expectations of the South-
; orti Democracy shall be made known, at least
I through the columns of this paper.

Letter from IIon. John Minor Butts, of Ya.
Richmond, July 0th, 1855.
Messrs. Wm. S. Beers A Co—Gentlemen: Con
siderations of duty to the afflicted alone prompt
me to send you this voluntary testimonial to the
overnment great value of Carter’s Spanish Mixture, for that
almost incurable disease, Scrofula.
Without being disposed, or deeming it necessa
ry, to go into the particulars of the
c case, I can say
it from several points simultaneously, for that the astonishing results that have been pro-
‘ ‘ 1 duerd by that medicine, on a member of my own
family, and under my own observation aud super
intendence, after the skill of the best physician
had been exhausted, and all the usual remedies
h d failed, fully justify me in recommending its
use to ail who may be suffering from that dreadful
malady.
I do not mean to say that it is adapted to all con
stitutions, or that it will afford tlie same relief in
all eases: fi r, of course, I can know nothing about
that—but from what I have seen of tlie effects, I
would not hesitate to use it in any and every case
of Scrofula, with persons for whom 1 felt an inter
est, or over whom I could exercise influence or con
trol. Respectfully yours,

it—a floating I’ompeii, and everything comes to

his modesty to hold him back from making so rigethous an

Dai.I.kv’s Mauii’ai. Pain Extractor.—There
never has been n discovery made in Materia Medi
cs, whereby pain can be so quickly allayed, and
where parts in a high state of iullamation can be
so rapidly reduced to their natural state, nor where
wounds and gores can be so thoroughly and rapid
ly healed, and decayed parts restored without eith
er scar or defect, than with Dailey’s -Ylagica! Pain
Extractor.
In cuts, wounds, sprains and bruises—casnaii-
ties to which children are constantly subject—the
action of the genuine Dailey’s Pain Extractor, is
ever the same! How much pain and suffering
may not thus bo prevented ! Moreover, life itself is
often dependent upon having at hand tlie genuine
Dailey Extractor, and for particulars of which I
respectfully refer to my printed pamphlets, for the
truth of which I hold myself responsible.
No case of burns and scald, no matter how se
ven-, has ever yet, in any one instance, resisted
the all powerful, pain-subduing nnd healing qttali
ties of the Dailey's Pain Extractor.
No Pain Extractor is gennino unless the box has
upon it a Steel Plate Engraved Label with the sig
natures of C. V. Clickencr & Co., Proprietors, and
Henry Dailey, Manufacturer. Price 25 cents per
box.
ty All orders should be addressed to C. V.
Clickencr & Co., 76 Barclay and 222 Greenwich
streets, New York.
Sold by all Druggists aud Medicine dealers
throughout the United States. 29 3m

Peruvian I- rdriffge.—For the prevention and
cure of Fever and Ague. Ague and Fever is the
most common form of billious disease, and to this
especially the curative powers of the present rem
edy are directed. A chill, or violent shaking of
the body, occurs every day or every other day, in
some cases every third or fourth day, which con
tinues from two to twelve hours. A "spoonful will,
if timely administered, prevent an attack of chills
and fever, and such has been the uniform success
in its use, that no occasion is known where this
valuable remedy lias failed to cure.

the exterior organs and integuments as to prevent
their recurrence. The Fills operating in harmony
with the Ointment, regulate the secretions, *>)“

matter calculated to produce external inflamation
or internal disease.
