Bainbridge, G-a., Feb. 20th, 1809.
Many years ago, th.o writer of these lines and an Invalid physician, while visifcaig the
Island of St. Croix for their health, experienced and witnessed many surprising and
beneficial effects of the Rum there produced upon many of the invalids who were (like
ourselves) seeking health; and, upon inquiry and investigation, obtained a fall history
of its medicinal virtues. Hejras delighted and surprised! and kylfg own fecover?,
which soon occurred, determmed, if possible, to propurs the sole right to znanuilbture , >
aid sell it in the United States. . .
The result of his labors was a glorious success fbr himself and suffering humanity*
for the celebrated PLANTATION BITTERS whs thus made known to the world. PLAN
' TATION BITTERS being an article of real merit, founded upon new principles, and
relying wholly upon the vegetable World for its medicinal effects, Worked a rapid revolu
tion in the history of medicine, and became as a household word all-over the civilized
world. The cabalistic S.. T.—lß6o—X, was a talisman of health, and the demsjsd for
the PLANTATION BITTERS soon far exceeded the abilities of the proprietors tisupply.
* Notwithstanding the large importation of St. Crcis Ruin,.made expressly for the com
pounding of these Bitters, the quantity wan inadequate. became necessary
that arrangements upon an extensive scale abroad should |t cnee be made, and .an agfßt
was dispatched to St. Thomas for that purpose. He was fortunate in securing and
leasing several plantations on some of the largest and most -productive estates on the
island. Houses, stills and presses were erected as if by magic, which utterly astou-
ished the natives. ” The services of experienced men and natives of the island were pro*
eured, and very soon the proprietors of the PLANTATION BITTESS were in a position
to supply their laboratory with all the perfectly pure St. troix Rum needed in manufac
turing the'GREAT DYSPEPTIC TONIC AND INVIGORATOR. ' The above cut represents
the natives crushing the sugar-cane and otherwise preparing it forthe stills and presses.
As an antidote to Fever and Ague, Intermittent and Malarious fevers, ‘Dyspepsia, and
. other, kindred diseases, the use of the PLANTATION BITTERS is
history of the world, Over five million SoftUr* disposed of annually/ ' Th®?
adapted to old and young, male and female, They are agreeable in taste, and
• produce an immediate beneficial result. ' . . -*

The. Difficulty About dial Dog
BY JOHN QUILL
This was the cause of all the trouble:
LOST— On the 10th inst., a small Tors
rier Dog, with a brass collar upon his neck,
and the tip ot his tail gone. Answers to
the frame of ‘Jack’, Five dollars' reward
will be given to the person who returned
him to JOHN QUILL No. 84, Rickety
Row.
I inserted the above in the daily Flip-
Flap, in the hope that I might recover the
animal, to which I was much attached*
The Fip flap goes to press at sa. m. Al
half past six I was awakened by a pull at
my door-bell. I got out and opened the
window. As I lookedgont I saw a man
standing in the front yard with a mougre
dog, tied to a rope. He gazed up and ob
served.
‘Hello! are you the fellow who lost a
dog V
Wes I umA
‘Well, then I’ve fetched him,’ said the
man.
I then explained to the wretched human
being that my dog was a terrier, while his
looked more like a dog of wood with half
the bark off and popped up on four sticks,
than a dog of any kind.
Well, ain’t yon a going to take him,
‘I wold’nt have him as a gif.—And I
want you,to move off now, or HU call the
police f
Now, I guess you think you are smart,
dou’t you? I’d bust yon aver the jaw for.
five cents, I would. Yon don’t know a
good dog when you see him, you don’t,’ and
he went out, after nping the pailit.gs off
4he fence.
In about a half an hour there was anoth
er ring at the bell. I went down. There
was a man with six dogs of a variety of
breeds.
‘Wh-which of ’em’s him, b-b-boss.’ said
this fellow, for he stuttered as if he would
si tangle on a small-syllable.
‘Neither«f them.*
Y-you said his u-na-mune was Jack, d*>
did’nt you?
Yes that’s it.’ *.
‘W-weH then, wh-wh-what’d ye call th
tbat I’ says he, as he sung out ‘jack,’ and
the whole six dogs looked up and wagged
their tails like a lot of sparvined oxen in
fly trine. .
‘Why, I. call it confounden nonesense to
expect me to take the whole )six dogs be
cause they Ye named Jack. I don’t want
to start a sausage mill, you understand
Mince meat isn't in my line,’
W-w-w-well ain’t you gotn*g to take
--.r-
Certainly nbt, do you suppose 1 am a
gibbeting idiot?’ ■
W w-wswell, you sh-ehant have him now
if you want him. I w«w<-wouldn’t trust a
decent d-dog with a like you,
any way.’
And the si x caniUes fell Into line and
Ironed down the street after hint*
I had apt got fairly into the house before
there w#s another ..ring. Seedy lupkijtf?
rnan with a semi-decayed yellow (jog/ His
ribs.stuck out so tfiathe looktiri as if be
Jjad gorged himself with a spiral spring.
‘You advertised fora dbg I believe.
Well, I couglit him around here in the
alley, after a desperate struggle. Fine
dog, sir.’
Well I don’t tbihk he is- H&* looks to
me as il he wasn’t well. He is too etheriai
for this world, young man depend upon it.’
, .‘Oh not at all., sin Only -shedding bis
coat, sir; «l! good dogs do it this time of
year. £ee that, sir,’said this seedy Gam
Casio#; holding the dog by the cuff of the
neck. See how he .yelps; that’s a sign of
pluck; that dog Would fight a’million wild
eats, he would; and lick em too sir,’
Get out!*, I exclaimed, and the dog put
his tail between his legs and ran for the
gate.
‘See that sir? see that’ said the man, as
he seized Diin •‘that’s a sign he’s well
trained; no raw dog dehaves like that, 1
want you to kubw. Now s’pose you fork
over that five.*
‘Not much! -I don’t want him, my friend.’
‘You won’t do il? Well then take him
for seventy five cebts; and «ay no more
Mbout it. He’S a valuable animal. You’ll
never get another such a chai.ce;’
I tell you t won’t have him.’
‘Well, don’t then;’ said this man, as he
kicked the animal over on my flower-pots
■and broke three of them, while the brute
dashed madly down the middle of the
street.
Just theii a big ruffian in a slouch hat
came up. with a bijf bull dog, sprung in the
NO. .7
knees, and lamenting the entire Iqm of fei»
tail.* When the ruffian spoke to blffr' i*
wagged the whole of the last half of him.
‘ I’ve brought that ere dog,’ was the ob
servation made by the ruffian 'aod ITI
