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

used various and note l remedies, none of which
seemed to do any good. Sometime ago I procu

cording to directions, ’has affected a comoletc
cure. Respectfully, &c., GEO. L. THOMAS.
Charlotte, N. C., Sept. 2!. 1808.
I have used Dr. O. S. Prophitt’s Liver Medi
cine as a tonic, and found it to be powerful and
efficacious. It is excellent for functional de
rangement of the Liver or constipation of the
bowels; in most cases superceding "the necessity
of a regular course of medicine.

DR. O. S. PRO PH ITT:
Dear Sir: J write you this to inform you that
I have been troubled a great deal with indiges
tion, but after using one bottle of your Liver
Medicine, I find great relief. I checrfullv re
commend it as a good Family Medicine, and feel
confident that it is good for anything for which
it claims to beau antidote. Verv respoctfullv,

DR. PRO PIT ITT:
Having a severe attack of Dysentery during
the past summer, I was induced to use your Dy

to recommend this remedy to all who may be so
attacked, believing that, should the directions
be followed, relief would surelv be obtained.—

Pain Kill It.
This is the celebrated medicine that run Perry
Davis’Pain Killer out of the market, wherever
it was sold. Davis made Prophitt change the
| name from Pain Killer to PAIN KILL IT.
For Rheumatism, Neuralgia, or pain of any
ki.'d it has no equal.
1 o.' Cuts, Bruises, Burns, or old Sores, it is the
best thing you can use as a dressing. .
For Snake Bites or Stings of Poisonous Insects,
it is a perfect ANTIDOTE.
It is good for Colic, Colds, Coughs, or Bowel
Complaints. Its name indicates its nature fully.
It is truly DEATH to pain.

This is to certify that I was confined to the
house, and most of the time to rnv 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 fitly cents onlv. It
relieved me almost instantly.' I therefore re
commend it in the highest degree to others suf
fering from similar disease- 1 can say that it is
one of the finest Family Medicines now out, cer
tain. Yours, truly, W. A. FOREHAND.
Dooly County, Ga., Oct. 27,1567
DR. O. S. PROPHITT:
I have, during the last eigeteen months, used
your Pam Kill It, and I consider it unequaled by
anything for pain in the head, breast, back of
side* and for colic nothing gives relief half so
‘Wick as your Anodyne Pain Kill.
It is doing much good in the community in o

O 01VSTJIVIX»TIO^I,
Its Cure anil Its Preventive
BY J. E- sohence:, m a
nd a human being has passed away,
for whose death there was no other reason
than the neglect of known and indisputably
proven means of cure. Those near and dear to
family and friends are sleeping the dreamless
slumber into which, had they calmly adopted
DR, JOSEPH H. fOHENCK’S SIMPLE
TREATMENT.
and availed themselves of his wonderful effica
cious 1 edicines. they would not have fallen.
Dr. Schenck has in his oifn case proved that
wherever sufficient vitality remains, that vital
ity, by his medicines and his directions for
their use, is quickened into healthful vigor.
In this statement there is nothing presump
tuous. To the faith of the invalid is made no
representation that is not a thousand times
substantiated by living and visible work'. The
theory of the cure by Dr. Selicuck’s medicines
is as simple as it is ui failing. Its philosophy
requires no argument. It is self-assuring, s At
convincing.
The Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake-Pills are
the first two weapons with which the citadel
of the malady is assailed. Two-thirds of the
cases of consumption .originate in dvspepsia
and a funtionally disordered liver. YFith this
condition the bronchial tubes “ sympathize”
with the stomach. They respond to the morbific
action of the liver. Here then comes the cul
minating result, and the setting in, with all its.
distressing symptoms, of
CONSUMPTION,
The Mandrake Pills are esmposed of one of
Nature’s noblest gifts—the Podophillum Felta
tum. They possess all the blood-seaiching,
alterative properties of calomel,
but unlike calomel, they
“ LEAVE NO STING BEHIND,”
The work of cure is now beginning. The
vitiated and mucous deposits in the bowels,and
in the alimentary canal are ejected. The liver,
like a clock, is wound up. It arouses from its
torpidity. The stomach acts responsively, and
the patient begins to feel that he is getting, at
last,
A SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD.
The Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the
Pills, permeates and assimilates with the food.
Chylideation is now progressing without its
previous tortures. Digestion becomes painless,
and the cure is seen to be at hand. There is no
more flatulence, 110 exacerbation of the stomach
An appetite sets in.
Now comes the greatest Blood Purifier ever
vet given by an indulgent father to suffering
man. Sehenek’s Pulmonic Syrup comes in tb
perform its functions- and to hasten and com
plete the cure. It enters at once upon its work.
Nature cannot be cheated, it collects and
ripens the impaired portions »of the lungs. Tn
tlio form of gatherings, it theta for
expecterotion, and lo ! in a very shert time the
malady is vanquished, the rotten throne that
it occupied is renovated and made new, and the
patient, in all the dignity of regained vigor,
steps forth to enjoy the manhood or the woman
hood that was
GIVEN UP AS LOST.
The second thing is, the patients must stay in
a warm room until they get well ; it is almost
impossible to prevent taking cold when the
lungs are diseased, but it must be prevented or
a cure cannot be effected. Fresh air and riding
out, especially in this section of the ccuntrv in
the winter season, are all wrong. Plivsiclans
who recommend that course lose patients, If
their lungs are badly diseased, and yet because
they are in the house they must not sit down
quiet; they must walk about the room as much
and as fast as the strength will bear, to get up a
good circulation Os blood. The patients must
keep in good spirits—be determined to get vroU.
This has a great deal to do with the appetite,
and is the great point to gain.
To despair of cure after such evidence of its
possibility in the worst cases, and moral cer
tainty in all others, is sinful. Dr. Sehenck’q
personal statement to the Faculty of his own
euro was in these modest words :
Many years ago T was in the last stages of
consumption ; confined to-my bed, and at one
time my physicians thought that I could not
live a week; then, like a drowning man catch
ing at straws, I heard of and obtained the pre
cautions which I now offer to the public, and
they made a perfect cure of me. It seemed to
me that I could fe.el them penetrate my whole
system. They soon ripened the matter in my
lungs, and I would spit up more than a pint of
offensive yellow matter every morning for a
long time.
As soon as that began to subside my cough,
fevei, pain and night sweats all began to leave
me, and my appetite became so great that it
was with difucultv that I could keep from
eating too much. 1 soon gained my strength,
and have grown in flesh ever since.”
“I was weighed shortly aftcr inv recovery,
added the Doctor, then looking like a mere
skeleton; my weight was onlv ninety-seven
pounds ; my present weight is two hundred and
twenty-five pounds, and for years 1 have
enjoyed uninterrupted health.”
Dr. Scheuck has discontinued his professional
visit to New York and Boston. He or his son,
Dr. J 11. Schenck, Jr., still continue to see
patients at their office, No. w North Sixth street,
Philadelphia, every Saturday from 9 a. m., to 3
p. m. Those nho wish a thorough examination
with the Respirometer will be charged five
dollars. The Respirometer declares the exact
condition of the lungs, and patients can readily
IcffTii whether they are curable or not.
The directions for taking the medicine are
adapted to the intelligence even of a child
Follow these directons, and kind nature will do
the rest, excepting that in some cases the Man
drake Pills are to be taken in increased doses ;
the three medicines need no other accompani
ments than the ample instructions that do
accompany them. First create appetite. Os
returning health hunger ia the most welcome
symptom. When it comes, as*it will come, let
the despairing be of good cheer. Good blood at
once follows, the cough loosens, the night sweat
is abated. In a short time both of these morbid
symptoms are gone forever.
I)r. Schenck’s medicines are constantly kept
in tens of thousands of families. Asa laxative,
or purgative, the Mandrake Pills are a standard
preparation; while the Pulmonic Syrup, as a
curer of coughs and colds, may be regarded as a
prophylacterie against consumption in any of
its forms.
Price of the Pulmonic Syrup and Seaweed
Tonic, $1.50 a bottle, or $7.50 a half dozen. Man
drake Pills, 25 cents a box. For sale by all
drusrglst-s and deal rs.

His, who, pillowed on thy hossorn
Turned aside from Glory’s ray,
His, who, chunk with.thy caresses,
Madly threw a world away 1
Should the base plebian rabble
.Dare assail my fame at Rome,
Where the noble spouse, Octavia,
Wee I*3 within her widowed hone,
Seek her! Say the Gods have told me,
Altars, Angela, circling wings—
That her blood with mine commingled,
Yet shall mount the Throne of Kings.
As for thee -star-eyed Egyptian,
Glorious Sorceress of ti e Nile !
Light the path oi stygian horrors
With the splendor of thy smile!
Give to Cnjur crowns and. arches—
I-efc Iris brow the laurel twine,

Triumphing in love like thiue.

Hark tho iasultiipg foeman’s cry l
They are coming! Quick, my faleliion.
Let me face them ere I die.
Ah! no moio amid the battle
Shall my voice exulting sw oil!
Isis and Osiris guard thee:

Many New York merchants are
thinking of dispensing with drummers
cr traveling agents, ol whom no fewer
than twenty-five thousand, it is said,
are sent from this city alone, whose
salaries, commission, and traveling ex
penses amount in the aggregate to be
tween fifty and sixty million dollars a
year. This sum is practically a tax
upen the retailers throughout the
country, each of whom pays annually
n ota $175., to S2OO to maintain a sys
tem which is now declared to involve
a needless expenditure of money.—
Several large houses that have dis
charged their drummers are reported
a 3 doing as well as before the change
was made, and to have incurred fewer j
losses. Iu bio eagerness to earn his ,
commission on sales, tho drummer will j
force upon the retailer, goods that are
not actually wanted; whence it follows
that the buyer often suffers, and the
seller also becomes a loser. The lia
b.lity to loss on this account, will of
course be greatly diminished by the
abolition ot the whole system, in place
0/' ivhich many of our merchants have
substituted more extensive advertising
with very favorable results.

A Little Boy Burned £0 Deaiii.
A Heartrending Calamity.
A letter to the Sdndorsville Geor
gian, dated Jefferson county, March
10, conveys intelligence of a most
heartrending occurrence, as follows:
About 3 o’clock ou Thursday morn
iug last, the residence of Mr. John
Jones took fire and was entirely con
sumed, together with everything of
vul e therein contained. But the sad
dest part of all is yet to be told—the
burning to death ot their only boy, dar
ling little Willie.
When the alarm was given, Mr.
Jones hastened to the stove room, the
or .gin of tho fire, aud attempted to
stay the flames. Ills wife and three
children were all in a room, fartherest
from the lire. Mrs. Jones took nor
babe in her arms and went out, forget
ful pf the unconscious Willie sleeping
sweetly iu the same bed. Nor was he
remembered—though ample tim j elaps
ed to have saved him—until liis faint
cry was heard amid the crackling
flames. At this awful discovery, the
frantic pare) ts would have rushed
madly into the flames in the vain hope
of rescuing their perishing child, had
they not been kept back by those pres
ent. Their intense agony was fearful
to beheld. Willie’s poor little body
was almost consumed.
B£sT* The Senate of Pennsylvania
has adopted a resolution, and directed
that it shall be sent to Congrss de
claring that the Federal election laws
just enacted “Is a direct attact upon
the reserved rights of the State of
Pennsylvania, the fundamental princi
ples of civil liberty, is odious, unneces
sary and oppressive, and should be
forthwith repealed.” The preamble
to the resolution sets off, among other
things, that the act “Is calculated to
produce conflicts of authority between
officials of the Federal and Btate Gov
ernments, and tends to engender jeal
ousies, riot, aud blood-shed; and that
it imposes odious duties upon private
citizens, and affixes oppressive and un
usaul penalties for their non-perform
ance.”
The Jap at Savauaaii.
The Advertiser gives us tbe follow
| ing account of a portion of the per
formance:
After an introductory act by little
All iiight, the India rubber specimen
of ft Jap, Yadsunoebi, who, by the way
is the Merry Andrew of the troupe,
entertained the audience with actne
tricks peculiar to the Japs. hffiehiDg
two or three dozen needles into hia
hand he started cut on a tour among
the assemblage, to whom he distribu
ted them, favoring the ladies with one
apiece. He afterwards sw allowed them
in full view of the lookers-on, ended
by restoring them all threaded upon
a long thread. His pipe feat was
wonderful. Taking a snmil pipe filled
with tobacco, he lighted the weed, and
swalloowed the whole ap
paratus, clouds of smoke issuing from
his mouth. No matter what he did
the smoke would come. He tried to
quench it with water, and even took
his pipe and placed it under his g;>r
raent, yet the clouds of tobacco vapor
would roll out from between his lips.
The greatest feat of the evening, was
the cross-ladder act by Hatsnma and
his son, a boy of about toD years. In
this, the lawn of gravity were outraged
severely, which but made the perform
ance more remarkable. Laying on his
back, Satsuma .he elder, balanced up
on his feet a heavy ladder, some twen
ty feet long, at the extreme of which
another much shorter ladder extend
ed out at a right angle. Upon this
structure Iho boy made his way, with
every confidence in his father, appar
ently, who bale:;cod the whole as stead
ily as if it but a part of himself.
Creeping out on the short bidder, the
audience breathless with excitement
and expectation, the boy made Lis way
to the end of it, whoro bb hung head
downwards and twisted himself about
in a manner not at ail comforting to
the spectators.

Kerr von Wicked a, the German war
chronicler, says that cn the road from
Belfort to Pontarlier he saw a “bevy of
famished women throw themselves up
on a dead heroe like a pack of wolves,
aud, tearing it with all sorts of instru
ments, swallow morsek quite raw.”—
He also mentions canibalism, but does
not vouch for that. But be concludes
as follows: “This is the eighth cam
paign I have been through, but neith
er in Algeria, nor in Italy, not iu Bo
hemia, not even in Schleswig, have I
seen sights so horrible.”.

diture.
Some days ago, an item for contin
gent expenses of the House being un
der consideration, Mr. Dawes explain
ed that the principal cause of exhaus
| tion of the contingent fund was the
1 payments to contestants for seats in
the House, who had received during
tho present Congress seventy-eight thou
sand dollars, besides twenty-eight thou
sand paid for expenses in connection
with those cases.
Just think of it: One hundred and
six thousand dollars paid away by a
single Congress to men who were neith
er officers cor representatives in any
capacity, and who had not a scintilla
oi honest chum against the govern
ment. Every vagabond who chooses
to run for Congress, if he should not
get a hundred votes iu his district, is
allowed to go to Washington, and, by
going through the form of a contest
for somebody s seat, put thousands in
to his pocket. rihnme! shame!!

Experiment with a Mitrailleuse
and a Jackass.
An English paper says : It is in
contemplation to mount milrnilleusee
on the backs of camels, and work them
in that novel position. It is almost
neetiieaa 10 nay mat me. exuerm%nt
nas been tried m Lngiana; jor wd;U
experiment;; have we not tried in
England ? But camels in England are
not readily obtainable, and tho Grdi
nauco Committee therefore selected
or e of those jaded old asses which
form so common a feature in the land
scape at Erith and Wolwieh. The
animal quietly permitted itself to be
used in the service of science till the
critical moment. The weapon on its
back had been loaded and pointed at
the butts, when it had suddenly
occurred to one of the committee that
the pulling of the lanyard might dis
turb the aim It was, therefore, sug
gested that the discharge should be
effected with a lighted luse. But tbe
unpleasant fizz of the latter applicance
was too much even for the patience of
a donkey. The creature no sooner
heard the unusual sound than he sent
out his heels, and, turning completely
round, pounted the mitrailleuse among
the members of the committee. The
panic which followed can be better
imagined than discribed, but fortunate
ly everybody got out of harm’s way,
and when the discharge took place the
wretched ass turned a complete sum
mersault. After such a contretemps we
shall surely hear no more about a
battalion of camel mitrailleurs.
Paddy’s descrintion of a fiddle can
not be beat : “It was the shape of a
turkey, and the size of a goose, he
turned it over on its back and rubbed
its belly with a stick ; and och! JSt.
Patrick ! how it did squeal ?”

Tlic Last Milestone.
Sixty years through shine and shadow,
Sixty years, my gentle v ife,
j You and I have walked together
Down the rugged road of hfe,
j From the Kills of spring we started,
And through all tho summer land,
: And the fruitful autumn country,
v We have journeyed hand in hand.
We have home the heat and burden,
Toiling painfully and slow:
We have gathered in oar harvest,
With rejoicing, long ago,
Leave the uplands for our children—
They are strong to sow and reap;
Through the quiet winter lowlands
Now our level way we keep.
We have had our time of
Twkj a proud and happy day—. *
Ah l the proudest of our j >urney —
When we felt that we could say
Os the children God has given,
Locking foudly on the ten:
“Lovely women are our daughters—
And our sons are noble men 1"
We have had our time of sorrow
Our time of anxious fears,
When we could not see the milestones
Through the blindness of our tears,
la the sunny summer country,
Far behind us little May,
And Willie, too, grow weary,
And we left them on the way.
Are you looking backward, mother,
That you stumble on the snow !
I am still your guide and staff, dear,
Lean your weight upon me, sol.
Our road is growing narrow;
• And what is my wife, you say ?
Yes ! I know our eyes nre dim, dear,.
But we have not lost the way.
Cheer thee! cheer thee! faithful hearted!
Just a little way before
files the great Eternal City
Os the King that we adore,
I can see the shinig spires;
And the King, the King, my dear,
We have served him long and humbly,
He will bless us, do not fear.
A Wonderful Ally Is London.
It is four times more populous than
New York and St, Petersburg, twice
as populous as Constantinople, has
two-thirds more people in it than
Paris, and one-fourth more than Pe
kin. It contains as many people as
Scotland, twice as many as Denmark,
and three times the number of Greece.
Every eight minutes, night and day,
one person dies; every five minutes
one is born. Eight hundred thousand
have been added to the population
since 1851. Only half a million of all,
this population attend public worship,
and there are a million cf absentees
who, if inclined to attend, would,
require to have 800 new places of.
worship built p 100,000 people work
on Suoda s; there are 140,000 habitu
al gin-drinkers ; 190,000 intoxicated
people taken every year off the streets;
100,000 fall n women; 10,000 profes
sional gamblers; 20,000 children train
ed to crime. There are four hundred
biblo women; three hundred and
eighty city missionaries; and twenty
thousand persons attend public wor
ship in the theaters every Sunday
evening. It is a world—in itself.

At the Radical caucus at Washing-,
ton, Satimday last, Senator Sumner is
reported to have said that the loyalists
of the north needed projection as well
as the loyalists of the South. Who
would have expected such an appeal
from tho party of autocrats and des
pots who have lorded it over the
country so heartlessly sot the List ten
years ? Their time, it seems, has come,
and we are glad to hear it. We knew
they would be sick the moment their
own policy was turned upon thorn,.
For one, we protest against any ex
tension of mercy. It is time an
example was made of tyrants in this
country —vme that will be remembered
to the latest generation.

A prise of ten debars was recently
offered to any member of the Georgia
Teachers’ Institute who would write
and spell correctly the words in the
follow:rg sentence: “It is an agreeable
sight to witness the unparallelled em
barrassment of a harnessed pedler at
tempting to guage the symmetry of a
peeled onion, which a sibyl has stab
bed with a poniard regardless of the
iuuendoes of the lillies of the corne

peted for the prlae, but yot ope was
successful.

his pleasure to the waiter, who, howev

satisfaction; and theu came the qu s- .
tion ingeniously put. Pointing at the
portion of meat in the dish, and which
he supposed to be duck, the English
man, with an enquiring look, said:
“Quack, quack, quack?” The waiter,
