BRA D EIKtD’S FEMALE REGULATOR, and con sider it the best combination ever gotten to gether for the diseases for which it is recom mended. I have been familiar with the pre scription both as a practitioner of medicine and in domestic practice, and can honestly say that 1 consider it a boon to suffering females, and can but hope that every lady in our whole land, who may be suffering in any way peculiar to their sex, may be able to procure a bottle, that their sufferings may not only be relieved, but that they may be restored to health A strength. With my kindest regards, 1 am, respectfully. W. B. FERRELL, M. D. We, the undersigned Druggists, take pleasure in commending to the trade, l)r. J.

It is purely vegetable, and will act upon the Liver and Kidneys as promptly as Calomel and Buchu, without any danger of salivation or de struction of the bones. Parties taking the medicine need not fear get ting wet, or any other reasonable exposure. Symptoms of Liver Disease: Headache, Dull Feeling or the Blues, Sour Stom ach, Sick or Nervous Headache, Heartburn, In digestion or Dyspepsia, Bad or Bitter Taste in tlie Mouth, the skin has a thick, rough feeling, and is darker than usual, Costiveuess, Melan choly Feelings, Cramps, Cold Feet, Colic, Dys entery, or Diarrhoea, Chills and Fever, and Piles. In fact, where the Liver is out of order, you are liable to every disease that is not conta gious. Prophitt’s Liver Medicine, if taken properly, will prevent and cure any disease resulting from a deranged liver. It will regulate its functions and thus cure all diseases caused by the failure of its healthy ac tion. It has been used for a great number of years, and has given universal satisfaction. There is no brother or son claiming to have the origional recipe. It is put up iu both Pow der aud Fluid form. Fairburn, Ga., Sept. 4,1868. DR. O. S.

This is to certify that I was confined to the house, and most of the time to my bed, and suf fering the greatest agony imaginable with Rheu matism, for five months, and after trying every available remedy, with no relief, I was cured with two bottles of Dr. O. S. Prophitt’s Anodyne Pain Kill It; each costing fifty cents only. It relieved me almost instantly. I therefore re commend it in the highest degree to others suf fering from similar disease.

Having for the last thirty-five years devoted my whole time and attention to the study of lung diseases and consumption, I feel that f un derstand fully the course that ought to be pur sued to restore a tolerably bad rase of diseased lungs to healthy soundness. The first and most important step is lor the patient to avoid taking cold, and the best of all places on this continent for this purpose in winter, is Florida, well down in the State, where the temperature is regular, and not subject to such variations as in more Northern latitudes. Palatka is anoint I can re commend. A good hotel is kept there by Petef man. Last winter I saw several persons there whose lungs had been badly diseased, but who, under tho healing influence of the climate and my medicines, were getting well. One hundred miles further down the river is a point which I would prefer to Palatka, as the temperature is more even and the air dry aad bracing. Mellonville and Enterprise are loca ted there. I should give a decided preference to Mellonville. It is two miles from river or lake, and it seems almost impossible to take cold there. The tables in Florida might be better, and pa tients complain at times but that is a good sign, as it indicates a return of appetite, and when this is the case they generally increase in flesh, and then the lungs must heal. Jacksonville, Hibernia, Green Cove, and manv other places in various parts of Florida, can be salelv recommended to consumptives in winter. My reasons for saying so are that patients are less liable to take cold there than where there is a less even temperature, and it is not necessary to say that where a consumptive person exposes hmiselt to frequent colds he is certain to die shortly. Therefore my advice is, go well down into the State out of reach of the prevailing east winds and fogs. Jacksonville, or almost any other of the localities I have named, will benefit those who are troubled with a totyid liver, a dis ordered stomach, deranged bowels, sore throat or cough, but for those whose lungs are diseased a more southern point is earnestly recommend ed. For fifteen years prior to 1869, I was profes -v,'V .Now York, Boston, Baltimore and I huadelphia every week, where I saw and ex amined on an average live hundred patients a week. A practice so extensive, embracing ev ery possible phase of lung disease, has enabled me to understand the disease fully, and hence, my caution in regard to taking cold. A person may take vast quantities of “Schenck’s Pulmonic Svrup, Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake I ills,” and yet die if he does not avoid taking cold. 0 In Florida, nearly everv bodv is using Schenck’s Mandrake Pills, for the climate is more likely to produce billious habits than more northern latitudes. It is a well established fact ti.at natives of Florida rarely die of consump tion, especially those of the southern part. On trie other hand, in New England, one third, at leasf, of the population die of this terrible.dis ease. In the Middle States it does not prevail so largely, still there aa-pirris&y thousands ofca ed'in’rSgari? ui'vaKing fresh 1 about scarlet fever, small pox, Ac. But* thev are not. They take what they term a little cold, which they are credulous eao'ugh to believe will wear off in a few days. They pay no attention to it, and hence it lays the foundation for anoth er and another still, until the lungs are diseased beyond all hope for cure. Mv advice to persons whose lungs are affected even slightly is, to lay in a stock of Schenck’s Pulmonic Syimp, Schenck’s Seaweed Tonic and Selienck’s Mandrake Pills and go to Florida. I recommend these particular medicines bocaue I am thoroughly acquainted with their action. I know that where they are used in strict accord ance with my directions they will do the work that is required. This accomplished, nature will do the rest. The physician who prescribes for cold, Qough or night-sw r eats, and then advises the patient to walk or ride out everv day, will be sure to have a corpse on his hands before long. Mv plan is to give my three medicines’ in ac cordance with the printed directions, exceut in some cases where a freer use of ;he Mandrake Pills is necessary. My object is to give tone to the stomach—to get up a good appetite. It is al ways a good sign when a patient begins to grow hungry. I have hopes of such. With a relish for food and the gratification of that relish comes good blood, and with it more flesh, which isclose ly followed by a healing of the lungs. Then the cough loosens and abates, the creeping chill* and clammy night-sweats no longer prostrate and annoy, and the patient gets well, provided ie avoids taking cold. Now there are many consumptive who have net the means to go to Florida. The question may be asked, is there no hope for such? Cer tainly there is. My advice to such is, and ever has been, tostaj- in a warm room during wintev, with a temperature of about seventy degrees, which should be kept regularly at that point, by means of a thermometer. Let such a patient take his exercise within the limits of the room by walking up and down as much as his strength will permit, in order to keep up a healthy circu lation of the blood. I have cured thousands l>v this system, and can do so again. Consumption is as easily cured as any other disease if it is ta ken in time, and the proper kind of treatment is pursued. The fact stands undisputed on record thatSchenck’s PulmonicSyrup, Mandrake Pills, nnd Seaweed Tonic have cured very many of •shat seemed to be hopeless cases of consump tion. Go where you will, you will be almost cer tain to find some poor consumptive who has been rescured from the very jaws of death by their use. So far as the Mandrake Pills are concerned, everyboky should keep a supply of them on h and. They act on the liver better tfian calomel, and leave none of its hurtful eifects behind. In fact they are excellent in all cases where a purgative medicine is required. If you have partaken too freely of fruit and diarrhoea ensues, a dose of the Mandrakes will cure you. If you are subieet to sick headache, take a dose of the Mandrakes and they will relieve you in two hours. If vou would obviate the effect of a change of water, or the too free indulgence in fruit, take one of the Mandrakes every night or everv other aigh'i;, and you may then drink water and eat waterniel lons, pears, apples, plums, peeches or corn, with out the risk of being made sick by them. They will protect those who live in damp situation's against chills and fevers. Try them. They are perfectly harmless. They can do vou good only. I have abandoned my profess Tonal visits to Boston and New York, but continue to see pa tients at my office, No. 15 N. SIXTH street, Phil adelphia, every Saturday, from 9 a. m. to 2 p. m. Those who wish a thorough examination with the Respirometer will be charged live dollars.— The Respirometer declares the exact condition of the lungs, and patients can readilv learn whether they are curable or not. But I desire it distinctly understood that the medicines de pends upon their being taken strictly according to directions. In conclusion, I will say that when persons take my medicines and their svstems: are brought into a healthy condition thereby, they are not so liable to take cold, ret no one with diseased lungs can boar a sudden change of at mosphere without the liability of greater or less irritation of the bronchia! tulles. Full directions in all languages accompauy my medicines, so explicit and clehrthat anv one can use them without consulting me, and can be bought from any druggist. J. ft. SCIIENCK, M. D. No. 15 N.

A Mnrdcroii* Assault Upon a Cy prian The Bowie Knife at Work—The A snail ant Arrested and Bond* Given in the Sum of $27*000. Thursday-evening last, a terrible cut ting affray took place at a house of assignation in this city, situated at the corner of William and Farm streets, which has been the general topic of conversation all over the city, and in order that the public might learn the exact facts in relation to the case, our reporter visited the place iu order to ascertain all he could in relation to it. THE WOUNDED GIRL was lying in her bed, occasionally groaning from the pains she suffered, and in one corner of the room was de posited the pile of clothing she wore at the time the assault was made upon her. Her under-elothing was com pletely saturated with blood, and bore the marks of the knife in several pla ces. The dress she had worn was ve ry much spotted with blood, and the whole appearance of everything she had . thrown aside was sickening.— From her own lips our reporter gl aned the following STATEMENT. Last evening about six or seven o’clock, a woman kuoeked at my door and me if my name was Hun gerford. I replied that it was. The woman was Mrs. Jane Staley, the wife of Mr. John A. Staley,, who had, been living with me. This woman was ac companied by her son George and a young man named Carey Tatum, who entered the room as she did The mo ment I answered Mis. Staley’s ques tion, her son George stepped upon the trail of my dress, which was quite long, and by that means prevented my mov ing. At the same instant, young Ta tum sprang towards me and caught hold of my arms, which he grasper! like a vice. Mrs. Staley then drew a Bowie knife and rushed at me, aiming at my face. I endeavored to protect my face and got a severe stab in the shoulder; she next cut a deep gash in my skull on the back of my head, then changing her position she stab bed me in the thigh. In trying to take the knife from her she next cut me from the centre of my arm down to my thumb. That wound pains me awfully, as bad as the one they think has gone through my right lung. She then stabbed me five more times in the the loss Os blOOd: X SUppmscr thought I was dead. Dr. Charlton and his assistant gave me chloroform and dressed my wounds. I have not the slightest ill-will towards Mrs. Sta ley, and freely forgive her for the wick ed act she has done. I never wished or thought to injure her. Her hus band has been my “friend” for a lone time, and offered me S6OO to come from Augusta here. He has not paid it nor will he ever. I did not wish any notice of this affair taken until this morning, when I heard from her. She said the only regret she had was that she had not killed me on the spot. I then determined to let justice take its course. True, I am but a girl of the town, a fast woman, but if I die, I have friends who will terribly avenge me, friends that I know will not let this matter drop. THE woman’s HISTORY. Sue Hungerford, as she is called by the derm rnonde, was born in the city of Augusta, Ga., on the 30th day of September, 1847, and is therefore in her twenty-fourth year. Her family is well kuowu in Augusta. Her parents, determined that she should have a su perior education, sent her to the Con veutof ihe Sacred Heart, iu Montreal, from which institution she graduated with honor. In an evil hour she fell into the fangs of the destroyer, and too proud to bury her shame in tears of penitence and contrition, she pur sued the downward path of degrada tion until her once pure name became the symbol of reproach. Asa woman of the town she is well kuowu. In her manners she is said to be ve ry attractive, uDd as a conversational ist unusually pleasing, and her features, in spite of the life she has led for years, are reported to be undeniably attract ive. Under other circumstances she would have been idolized a favored member of society—now, “none are so poor as to do her leverenee.” She re marked yesterday: “The girl of the town can never retrace her steps; were I disposed to work at the most menial employment, which of you, gentlemen, would take me to his house and give me bread for my iabor ? IS ot one ! Not one!’ THE CAUSE OF THE ATTACK MADE UPON HER. Some time ago, Mr. John A. Staley, a man advanced m years, and the hus band of the person who made this as sault. in his capacity of agent, hud the letting of the house in which Mrs. Fogarty lives. Ahile collecting rents, he fell in with Sue Hungerford, and formed her acquaintance She did not object, it was her vocation. He neglected his lawful wife, for her, and eventually Mrs. Staley was informed that Sue had a child by him.

He Still Lives—Some Account of his Recent Travels. [From the Philadelphia Ledger.] A rumor comes from a village near Antwerp, that the historic “wandering Jew” has been seen in that neighbor hood. He is reported as haring pass ed rapidly through the market place, and as having on the outskirts of the viliage addressed a few’ words to some children who, bolder than their com panions, had followed iu his path.— Ho was dressed in worn aud dingy an tique garments, carried a long staff, and with his profuse beard *■ streaming in the wind presented such an awe-in spiring appearance that the terrified villagers fied from him in fright. When he paused and spoke to the children he told them to go back anc inform the people that anew ruler hac arisen in. Europe, who would bring Belgium, Holland, aud other countries under h.s sway, that many strange vi cissitudes would be witnessed, and that many proud heads would be brought low. On being questioned as to his name he replied, “Seek not to know.— I have been here before in the past, I shall be here again in the future.— Until the end of time I shall walk the earth unceasingly.” The apparition then waving its hand turned from the children and resumed its ploddiDg walk, and disappeared in the distance. The report of the appearance of the andering Jew” has caused great ex citement among the believers in the le gend. and the truth of the story is credited throughout Belgium. The le- gend of the Jew who had witnessed the crucifixion, and had been condemn ed to live and wander over the earth until the time of Christ’s second oom ing, originated in the middle ages, and can be traced back to the Chronicle of the Abbey of St. Albans, which was copied and continued by Matthew Pa ris. This chronicle relates that in 1228 a certain Archbishop of Armenia Ma jor, came to England on a visit to sa cred places, and while enjoying the hospitality of the Abbey of St. Albans, among other strange stories related that there was a man named Joseph living in Armedia who had witnessed the crucifixion. This man, originally called Cartaphilus, was a porter iu Pi late s service, and while Jesus was pass ing out from the judgment hall impi ously struck him on the back, saying, “Go quicker, why do you loiter ?” Je sus looked b .ck ou him with a severe countenance, and said, “I am going, but you shall wait till I return.” And accordingly Cartaphilus is still waiting fetnrn After Christ’s death he name was changed co auaepu. the “Wandering Jew” appeared at Hamburg, telling a story similar to the above, however, said that his name m as Ahasurus, and that he was a shoe maker who struck Jesus on the b§ck while on the way to Golgotha. This particular person is described as a tall man, of about fifty years of age, with iong hair hanging down to his shoul ders, barefooted, and wearing a strange costume, consisting of sailor’s trousers, a gown reaching to the knees, and a long mantle flowing down to his feet. He spoke good German, in the Saxon dialect. In 1575, the “Wandering Jew” ap peared in the and this time used the Spanish language. A few years later the “Wandering Jew” arrived at Sti asbourg, and going before the magistrates, informed them that he had visited the city just two hundred years before, which statement, it is as serted, was proved to be true, by a re ference to the town records. He was next heard of iu the West Indies, and again in France, where, in ,1604, he caused considerable sensation, bis pres ence being accompanied by destructive hurricanes. Ou pril 22d, 1774, an individual claiming to be the “Wander ing Jew” appeared in Brussels, and told his story to the cominon peopfe; he, however, had changed the popular name of this character, and culled him self Isaac Laquedem. This legend has formed the subject ot numerous popular ballads iu the dif ferent languages of Europe, and also of poems, tales and novels, by distin guised authors. It may here be re marked, that this curious myth seems to have originated in that passage of the Gospel of St. John, twenty-first chapter aud twenty-second verse, where Jesus says of John, “If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee ? Follow thou me.’ ‘Then this saying went abroad among the bretheren that this disciple should not die.” A clergyman was censuring a young lady for tight lacing. “Why,” replied miss, “you would not surely recom mend loose habits to your parishioners.” Mrs. Partington was askeh, “What church do you g 6 to ?” “To any para doxical church,” said the old lady, looking over her spectacles, “where the divine word is dispensed with.” It was the idea of a minister down in *eorgia, at the conclusion of a mar riage ceremony, to use in his prayer for the bridal couple the sentence, “Suffer little children to come unto rue. A man named Oats was hauled up recently for beating his wife and children. On being sentenced to im prisonment the brute remarked that is was very hard if a man was not, al lowed to thrash his own oats. S- H. Smith (f Cos., Proprietors . [From the Baltimore GnzcU * District of Columbia. The bill creating a Territorial' Gov ernment for the District of Columbia has passed both Hous sos Congress, and only wants the signature of the President to become a law. This it is certain to obtain. The following syn opsis of the bill will show its general* character, and the radical change it ef fects in the government of the District. Under the provisions of the bill the President is to appoint the Governor aud Territorial Secretary for the Dis trict, whose respective terms of office are limited to four years. The Legis lative Assembly is to consist of two Houses—the Upper house takiug tho name of a Council, aud the lower of a House of Delegates. The Council is to be composed of eleven members, seven of whom are to be citizens of Washington, two of Georgetown, and two to be taken from the countv.— The appointment of members of’the Council is also vested in the President. Five of the members of the Council are to serve for one year, and six for two years. But all subsequent ap pointments are to be made for two years~ The House of Delegates to* consist of thirty-three members to be elected annually from eleven districts, three deldgates from each district.— The city of Georgetown is to consti tute one district; the countv outside the cities of Georgetown and Washing ton another; whilst the remaining nine districts are to be petitioned off within the limits of the city of Wash ington. The election of Delegates is. to be by popular vote, aud on the principle of cumulative voting whereby a voter in any one of the districts may. cast as many votes as. there are Dele gates to be elected for. that district, or. may distribute his vote at will; among* the candidates. The Governor, in conjunction with the Judges of the Supreme Court of the District, is to have, in the first in stance, the designation of the districts and the appointment of registrars and judges of election. The first election is to be held within sixty days from. the passage of the act. The session of *. the Legislature is limited to sixty days * in each year, except the first session,' which may continue one hundred days. The Assembly is prohibited from con tracting any debt exceeding five per * cent, of the assessed property of the. District, except it be first sanctioned by the popular vote. All acts of the Assembly are to be subject to repeal, or modification by Congress. The ju dicial courts are to remain as now or ganized, or until abolished by act of Congress; tut the Assembly may mod be deemed necessary. f " 1 -* J ■ The charters of the cities cf Wash ington and Georgetown are to be re pealed on the Ist of June next; but all the ordinances passed by the respec tive cities are to contiuue in force un til modified by Congress or by the A3*- sembly. Nevertheless, although all further municipal authority is to cease on the first of June, and although the municipal councils are prohibited from. assessing any taxes from the passage of the law changing the form of gov* ernment from the District, it is provi ded that the charters of the two cit ies are to be continued in force until all outstanding debts and contracts are adjusted, but for no other purpose. bo the negro experiment has broken down ignominionsly, and the Radicals, to cover up their defeat, have been obliged to resort to an entire change of government, *by which they still maintain political control of the Dis trict, but under a different legislative and with at least the promise of better, results. The Partridge-Eating Wager.—The*. Baltimore Sun, referring to the ssod wager of a man named Henderson, in this city, that he will consume one par- _ tridge per day. for thirty days, says; “The Washington Star has bad sev eral notices of the wager, but does not tell ns if the man eats, nothing else be sides the partrige during the day, or wherein is the peculiar hardship of tha case otherwise.” Henderson emff whatever else ha likes, the only stipulation being that b 6 shall consume one partridge per day between tfye hours of 9 and 10 a. m.— The hardship in the case is in the fact that though a single partridge is wry good eating, it becomes a most repul sive article of food when repeated dai ly for any length of time. Iu France,, it is a somewhat common wager to bet, against the performance of pigeon-eat-. ing of this kind; and some live or six, years ago a narrative writ'en by a Frenchman of bis physical sufferings— nausea, fever, and prostration—endur ed in undertaking the experiment, at tracted considerable attention from the medical fraternity.
