DR. O.S. PROPHITT:
Sir: My wife has been an invalid for fifteen
years. Doctors all agreed she had “Liver Dis

cure. Respectfully, &c., GEO. L. THOMAS.
CHARLOTTE, N. C., Sept. 24, 1868.
I have used Dr. O. S. Prophitt’s Liver Medi

Dr. SCHEiVCK. Advises Consump
tives to go to Florida in Winter.
Tlaving 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 case of diseased
lungs to healthy soundness. The first and most
important stop is for 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 Stale, where the temperature is regular,
and not subject to such variations as in more
Northern latitudes. Palatka is a point 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 the 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 tho air dry and
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 thei-e.
The tables in Florida might bo 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 many
other places in various parts of Florida, can be
safely recommended to consumptives in winter.
My reasons for saying so arc 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
himself 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 almo it any
other of the localities I have named, will benefit
those w r ho are troubled with a torpid liver, a dis
ordered stomach, deranged bowels, sore thro it
or cough, but for those whose lungs are diseased
a more southern point is earnestly recommend
ed.
For fifteen years prior to 18(59, I was profes
sionally in New York, Boston, Baltimore and
Philadelphia every week, where I saw and ex
amined on an average five hundred' patients a
week. A practice so extensive, embracing ev
ery possible phase of lung disease, has enable
me to understand the disease fully, and
hence, my caution in regard to taking cold. A
person mav take vast quantities of “Schenek’s
Pulmonic Syrup, Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake
Pills,” and yet die if he does not avoid taking
cold.
In Florida, nearly everv body is using
Schcnok’s Mandrake Pills, for the climate is
more likely to produce billious habits than more
northern latitudes. It is a well established fact
that natives of Florida rarely die of consump
tion, especially those of the southern part. On
the other hand, in New England, one third, at
least, of the population die of this terrible dis
ease. In the Middle States it does not prevail
so largely, still there are many thousands of ca
ses there. What a vast, percentage of life word
be saved if consumptives were as easily alarm
ed in regard to taking fresh cold as they are
about scarlet fever, small pox, Ac. But thev
are not. They take what they term a little cold,
which they are credulous enough 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.
My advice to persons whose lungs are affected
even slightly is, to lay in a stock of Sehenck’s
Pulmonic Syrup, Scbenck’s Seaweed To lie and
Schenek’s Mandrake Pills and go to Florida. I
recommend these particular medicines becaue 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 wil t
do the rest. The physician who prescribes for
cold, cough or night-sweats, and then advises
the patient to walk or ride out every day, will
be sure to have a corpse on his hands before long.
My plan is to give my three medicines’ in ac
cordance with tne printed directions, exeent in
some cases where a freer use of ;he Mandrake
1 ills 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 chills
and clammy night-sweats no longer prostrate
and annoy, and the patient gets well, provided
ie avoids taking cold.
Now there arc many consumptive who- lffcve
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 evey
lias been, to stay in a warm room during winter,
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 liis exercise within the limits of the room
bv 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 by
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
that Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup. Mandrake Pills,
■«?nd Seaweed Tonic have cured very many of
«vhat seemed to be hopeless cases or cdnsnmp
tiou. Go where you will, you w ill be almost cer
tain to find some poor consumptive who has been
rescured from the very jaw's of death by their
use.
So far as the Mandrake Pills are concerned,
every l oky should keep a supply of them on hand.
They cn the liver better than calomel, and
.save none ot its hurtful effects behind. In fact
they arc 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 subiect to
sick headache, take a dose of the Mandrakes
and they will relieve you in two hours. If you
would obviate the effect of a change of water, or
the too free indulgence in fruit, take one of the
Mandrakes every night or every other night, and
you may then di ink water arid eat watermel
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 situations
against chills and fevers. Try them. They are
perfectly harmless. They can do you good only.
I have abandoned my professional visits to
Boston and New York, hut 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 five 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.
lu conclusion, I will say that when persons
take my medicines ami their systems are
brought into a healthy condition thereby, they
are not so liable to take cold, yet no oric with
diseased lungs can boar a sudden change of at
mosphere without the liability of greater or less
irritation of the bronchial tubes.
Full directions in all languages accompauv
my medicines, so explicit ana clear that any one
can use them without consulting me, and can
be bought from any druggist.

A High handed Outrage.
It is oar duty to record one of the
most glaring and flagrant outrages up
on the rights and liberties of the citi
zeus that has ever occurred within our
knowledge. On Monday last, as the
Revenue Officer, who was in charge of
a squad of soldiers and a train of wag
ons, approached the bridge across the
Chestatee river, belonging to W. R.
Bolding, Esq., he ordered the bridge
keeper to open the gate and let him
and his train pass. Before doing so
the keeper demanded the toll which
the officer refused to pay. About this
time Mr. Bolding himself came up,
when the same order was given to
him, which he also refused to obey un
til the toll was paid. At this the offi
cer ordered an axe to be brought,
when, Mr. Bolding feeling that he was
powerless to enforce his rights, and
fearing his property would be damag
ed, directed his bridge-keeper to deliv
the key. This the officer would not
allow to be used, but had the gate bro
ken, and passed through—his whole
manner being most insolent, arbitrary
and iusulting.
But this is not all, if it were, outrage
as it was, it might be borne. As soon
as the bridge was passed, this petty
tyrant, swelled and bloated with a lit
tle brief authority—intoxicated with
power as well as with blockade whiskey
—ordered Mr. Bolding under arrest—
had him hand-euffed--then, in this
condition, without permitting him even
to speak to his wife or children, he
was dragged as a felon from his home
and family, to be carried, as is suppos
ed, to Atlanta. And all th.s for no
crime—no violation of law—no wroug.
Mr. Bolding is one of the fust citizens
of our county—a peaceable, law-abid
ing, high-toned, Christian gentleman.
Such flagrant violations of every prin
ciple of law and of right should not
and cannot be tolerated without an ef
fort at least to correct them The
conduct of this distorted mouster, in
this case, savors more of the bandit
than of an officer charged with the ex
ecution of the law. We, therefore, in
the name of law, order, justice, right,
and of everything that is sacred, ap
peal to the constituted authorities of
the country to see to it that adequate
and speedy punishment be inflicted for
this gross, wanton, flagrant outrage
and crime.
The above we copy from the Gaines
ville Eagle , for the purpose of adding
our testimony to what is there said of
the character of Mr. Bolding—of whose
hospitally we have partaken, and
whom we know Ip be not only a law
abiding citizen, but a high-toned Chris
tian gentleman.— Exchange.
Mark Twain on Juvenile Pugil
ists.
We find in the Buffalo Express of
the 28th inst., the following paternal
objurgations by Mark Twain.
“Yes, I have had a good many fights
in my time,” said old John Packy. ten
derly manipulating his dismantled
nose, “and it’s kind of queer, too, for
when I was a boy the old man was al
ways telling me better. He wits a
good man and hated fighting. When
I would come home- with my nose
bleeding, or with my face scratched
up, he used to call me out in the wood
shed, and in a sorrowful and discour
aged way say - “So, Johnny; you’ve had
another tight, hey ? How many times
have I got to tell you bow disgraceful
and wicked it is for boys to fight? It
was only yesterday that I talked to
you an hour about the sin of fighting,
and here you’ve' been at it again.
Who was it with this time? With
Tummy Kelly, hey ? Don’t you know
any better than to fight a boy that
weighs twenty pounds more than you
do, besides bemg two years older ?
Ain’t ye got a spark of sense about ye?
I can see plainly that you are deter
i med to break your poor father’s
heart by your reckless conduct. What
ails your finger? Tommy bit it!—
Drat the little fool! Didn’t ye know
enough to keep yer finger out of his
mouth ? Was trying to yerk his cheek
off, hey ? Won’t ye never learn to quit
foolin’ 'round a boy’s mouth with yer
fit.gets l You re bound to disgrace us
all by seech disgraceful behavior ?
You're determined never to be nobo
dy ! Did you ever hear of Isaac Watts
—that wrote ‘Let dogs delight to bark
and bite’— sticking his fingers in a
boy’s mouth to get ’em bit, Lke a fool?
I’m clean discouraged with ye! Why
didn’t ye go for his nose, the way Jon
athan Ld wards, and George Washing
ton, and Daniel Webster used to when
they were boys? Couldn’t ’cause he
had ye down ! That’s a party story
to tell me! It does beat all that you
can’t learn how Socrates and William
Penn used to gouge when they was
under, af er the hours and hours I’ve
j spent in telling you about all those
; great men ! It seems to me sometimes
■as if I should have to give you up in
I despair. It’s an awful trial to me to
| have a boy that don’t pay attention
| to good example nor to what I say.—
! W hat! you pulled out three or four
handfuls of his hair! H-m ! Did he
| squirm any ? Now if you’d a give him
one or two in the eye—but as I’ve told
ye, many a time, fighting is poor busi
ness. Won’t you—for your father’s
sake—won’t you promise to try and re
member that! H-m! Johnny, how
did it—ahem—v hich licked T
“You licked him? Sho! Really?
Well, now, I hadn’t any idea you could
l.ck that Tommy Kelly! I don’t be
lieve John Banyan, at ten years old,
could have done it. Johnny, my boy,
you can’t think how I hate tj have
you fighting every day or two. I
wouldn’t have had him lick you for
five, no, not for ten dollars. Now,
sonny, go right in and wash up, and
tell yer mother to put a rag on yer fin
ger. And, Johnny, don’t let me hear
of your fighting again.’
“I never see anybody so down on
fighting as the old man was, but some
how he could never break me from it.”
ITnmetliodical Methodism.
The time was when our system was
worked “by rule.” Leading minds—
John Wesley himself generally—laid
plans for progress, aud, as one man,
sill his followers worked up to them—
at least made an honest effort to do
so. Then Methodism was an embodi
ment of method. But now, plans arfe
laid and adopted, orders gikeU and
resolutions passed, wuile few carry
them out systematically, and the
Church iu all her interests suffers for
the neglect Here are some wise
thought on the subject from the Rich
mond Christian Advocate :
Methodism was fitly named. The
Methodists were a methodical people,
due allowance being made for the dif
ficulties under which they labored. “A
nation was born in a day:” it was no
slight task to organize and officer at
once that mixed multitude of converts.
Especially was this difficult on
continent, where a vast country was
being filled up, Territories and States
were being formed, and local and
itinerant ministers were seeking to
carry the gospel over the length aud
breadth of the land, and keep abreast
with the westward march of emigra
tion. So great was the demand of
the preliminary work of evangelization
on the energies and resources of the
rising church, that the work of gath
ering, confirming, edifying, methodis
ing the thousands of converts, could
not receive as much attention as was
desirable. Yet how admirable were
the methods of the Church to supply
this lack 1 Consider the class system.
A society of two hnudred, let us say,
was divided into ten classes ; over
each class was placed a man of piety,
aud also of some experience and gifts;
he watched the daily walk of the mem
bers of his own class; he acquainted
himself with their temporal and spir
itual state, etc.
Anecdote About Carlyle.
The curious and “ troublesome”
style of Carlyle is said to be quite in
contrast with his simple; straightfor
ward way of talking. Hatred of shame
is one of his notable characteristics.
Oue evening at a small literary gath
ering, a lady, famous for he “ muslin
theology,” was bewailing the wicked
ness of the Jews in not receiving our
Saviour, and ended her diatribe by
expressing regret that he had not
appeared in our own time. ‘-How
delighted,” said she, “ we would all be
to throw our doors open to him, and
listen to his divine precepts 1 Don’t
you think so, Mr. Carlyle
The sturdy philosopher, thus ap
pealed to, said, iu his broad Scotch :
“ No, madam, I don’t. I think that,
had he come very fashionably dressed,
with plenty of money, aud preaching
doctrines palatable to the higher or
ders, I might have had the honor of
receiving from you a card of invi’a ion,
on the back of which would be written
“ To meet our Saviour ;” but if he had
come uttering his divine precepts, and
denouncing the Pha ise< s, and associ
ating with Publicans and the lower
orders, as he did, you would have
treated him much as the Jews did,
and have cried out; “Take him to
Newgate and hang him!”
On another oceasim, when Ernest
Jones, a well-known Chartist leader,
was haranguing, in his violent manner,
against the established authorities,
Carlyle shook his head, and told him
that, “had the Chartist leaders been
living in the days of Christ, he would
have sent the unclean spirits into
them, instead of into the swine of the
Gergesenes, and so we should have
happily got rid of them.” This deli
cate allusion to the suicide of the pigs
so as.ouished the respectable repre
sentative of the numerous family of
the Joneses that he said nothing more
about Chartism that night.
A Parson Fighting in the Name
of the Lord.
Not very far from Lancaster, Penn.,
is a little edifice called the Octorara
Methodist Episcopal Church, over
whose congregation Parson Gregg
sometimes presides. Parson Gregg is
a man who fears the Lord, but Lever
stands in dread of man, be he never
so mighty. The Octorara Church,
genorally known as the “Gray Horse,”
"stands in a sort of desert, and lies one
half in Pennsylvania and one-half in
Maryland ; that is, the old M;son and
Dixon’s line cuts it in two, aud leaves
the racred building equally divided
between the two States. Whenever
there is a rival the ungodly from the
Southern side of the line eome over and
raise Cain among the faithful. They
congregate about the door and issue
cat calls, uud they swear and cut up
generally like barbarians. When meet
ing is over they force their at ten tics
upon the young ladies of the church,
and, make love to them in. a highly
indecorious manner, and on meeting
the parson, altvays insist upon his
taking ,a drink. This invariably of
fends the good man, and excites his!
wrath against the wretches, the more

| since they arc almost always tips,. and
I invariably blasphemous.
Last night a party of them cams
| over the line and disturbed the meet
ing. Parson Gregg paused a moment
j in the delivery o* his sermon, (which,
i by the wav, was from the sth chapter
jof St Matthew) and rolling up his
sleeves, uttered himself as follows:
“ Young neu, if there’s another dis- *
orderly sound from among your vktf
disreputable crowd, I’ll come down
from this sacred K A tfcff nartfs’
of the Lord put a head on ‘ evert*-

In a moment this rov? again b*g*n.
Au audible'swear of the'first magni
tude filled the room with its bad odor,
and caused 'the'worshipers to shrink"
within themselves with horror.
Parson Gregg came down from that
pulpit in a state of quiet raga He
took off his coat and hung it over the
chaucel rail, and then went for those
wicked young men, only one of whom
he succeeded in overhauling within the
portals of the church. Him he basted 1
satisfactorily.' Following cIdST
the trail of the others, he came ii)l*'
with*the most outrageous heathen of*
all; one Jim * Page Bed lor;, whom he
tackled without a word ofgrace. Par
son Gregg gave Bedloe a most clerical •
and canonical walloping. When he’*’
hod finished with his fists he
resorted to his heels. Jim
to defend all of him but the other end,'-
aud when his punishment bad been
duly administered he went home wis
er and sorer than when he came.
r I he parson then returned to his pul
pit and finished his sermon. He will
never be troubled any more.
Affairs In the South.
The Baltimore Gazette says: :
A New York*' merchant, whd is
scribed “as oue of" the most distin- *
guished” in that city, return- 1
ed from an extended tour through the
Southern States, and has famished' 1
one of the journals—edited by a Be- *
publican—with the result of hifcr obser
vations. His account of the condi
tion of affairs there coincides so entire-*
ly with the reports that, from time to
time, have reached the Qazette from
other sources, that they are eminently
worth considering. Both financially
and commercially, he found the Sonth
greatly depressed.
The cotton crop, though the largest
that has been gathered since the war,
has not been profitable to the plant
ers, except in a few instances and un
der exceptional circumstances. The
factors who had taken liens upon the **
stock and crop to cover their advances,
have, to a considerable extent, »ne- *
ceeded iu getting their money back;
but the planter has been left without
sufficient resources to carry him un- ~
embarrassed through the next season,
aud the factors, though partially re
imbursed, and generally secured
against loss in respect to their previous
advances, are shy of putting out morfe '*
money, or furnishing more fertiHtdra
on the basis of their old engagements.
The greater parts of the proceeds of
last season’s crop having been absorb
ed by the factors, the country mer- : ‘
Chants, with whom the planters have
also had dealings during the year, find !
it difficult to make collections, and iu
many instances will have to wait the
chances of the next crop.
Money is consequently scarce, and
in demand, and will readily command
one and a-half per cent, interest. Os
all the Tk>Uon States, that of Georgia *
presents the most hopeful prospects, -
whilst Savannah, her chief city-through
the facilities offered by her great Central -
Railroad and the liberality of its man
agement—“has become the second city
of the South.” Charleston has sunk
into a kind of sullen stupor and tor
pidity. Mobile languishes wearily, and
the trade and commerce of New Or
leans, as compared with what it wSs " s
before the war, has senibly* declined
No new buildings of consequence are
going up in either of the three latter ’
cites.
• After making due allowance for fcifer*
depression at this time, arising from
the low price of cotton, the conclu's
sion is reached that the main trouble
of the South is \ the extravagance of
the alien Radical authorities; and that*
the States where negroes predominate,
and, therefore, hold, through corrupt
white Radicals, the chief control, are
iu worse condition than any of the sis
ter Southern StAtes."
“In New Orleans, the rate of feCate ’
and local taxation for the year 1870
amounted to five and a half per cent
upon a full valuation of all the prop

feeling at the South nraong all class* •
of the native white population, is that
they have been brutally dealt with by '
the Radicals at 'Washington, and that
the malignity of the latter has not yet
exhausted itself. This feeling has crip
pled their energies, shaken their con
fidence in the future, and tends largely
to keep up and intensify the social, po
litical and industrial disorganization
that now prevails there. The worst
enemies of the South are the carpet
baggers, and nothing, we are told, can
be more cerhiin that prosperity there
cannot be restored until the carpet
bag governments, with their organized
system of robbery, are put down, and
an honest system of administration es
tablished instead.
