MANY" 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. SCHENCK’S SIMPLE TREATMENT. and availed themselves of his wonderful effica cious medicines, they would not, have fallen. Dr. lias in hjs own case proved that wherever sufficient vitality remains, that vital ity, by bis medicines and bis 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 G not a thousand times substantiated by living and visible works. The theory of the cure by Dr. Sc.hcnck’s medicines is as simple as it is ui failing. Its philosophy requires no argument. It is self-assuring, seli 1 - oon vine, ing. 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 dyspepsia and a functionally disordered livei. With 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 iu, with all its distressing symptoms, of CONSUMPTION. The Mandrake Pills are esmposed of one of Nature’s noblest gifts—the Podophillum Pelta tum. They possess all the blood-searching, 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 witli the Pills, permeates and assimilates with the food. Chylincation is now progressing without its previous tortures. Digestion becomes painless, and the cure is seen to lie at hand. There is no more flatulence, no exacerbation of the stomac h An appetite sets in. Now comes the greatest Blood Purifier ever yet green by an indulgent father to suffering man. Schenck’s Pulmonic Svrup comes in to perform its functions and to hasten and corn plete the cure. It enters at once upon its work. Nature cannot be cheated. It collects and ripens the impaired portions of the lungs. In the form of gatherings, it prepares them for expectoration, and lo I in a very short time the malady is vanquished, the rotten throne that it occupied is renovated and made new, and th‘3 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 ceuntrrv in the winter season, arc all wrong. Physicians who recommend that course lose patients, if their lungs are badly diseased, and vet because they arc in the house they must not sit down quiet; they must walk about the room as much aud as fast as tiie strength will bear, to get tip a good circulation of blood. The patients must keep in good spirits—be determined to get Well. 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. Schenck’s personal statement, to the Faculty of his own cure was in these modest words : Many years ago I was in the last stages of consumption; confined to mv bed, and at one time my physicians thought that I could not live a week; then, like a drowning man catch ing at straws, F heard of and obtained the pre narations which T now offer to the public, and {hey made a perfect cure of me. It seemed to me that I could feel them penetrate mj r 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 couch, level, pain and night sweats all began‘to leave me, and my appetite became so great that it was with difficulty that I could keep from eating too much, r soon gained my strength, and have grown in flesh ever since.” “I was weighed shortly after my recovery,” added the Doctor, “then looking like a mere skeleton; my weight was only ninety-seven pounds ; my present weight is two tuiiyired and twentv-flve pounds, and for vehrs 1 have “ ENJOYED GOOD HEALTH.” Dr. Schenck has discontinued his professional visit to New York and , Boston, lie or his son, Dr. J 11. Schenck. Jr., still coutinue to see patients at their office. No. 15 North Sixth street, Philadelphia, every Saturday from 9 a. m., to 3 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, alul patients can readily learn whether tfcev are curable or not. The direction* for taking the medicine are addp'jcd to the intelligence even of a child Follow these direct-ons, and kind nature will do the rest, excepting that in some cases the Man drake Pills are to he 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 is the most welcome symptom. When it comes, as it will come, let the despairing be of good cheer. Good blood at. ouce follows, the cough loosens, the night sweat, is abated. In a short time both of these morbid symptoms are gone forever. Dr. 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 eurcr of coughs and colds, may he regarded as a prophylacfceric against consumption in any of its forms. . ~ Price of the Pulmonic Syrup and Seaweed Ton ic, irL3O a bottle, or $7,50 a half dozen.

MITCH ELL & CO sept 20, 1870.Vfly A LITERARY CURIOSITY. Mrs. H. X. Doming, of San Francis co, is said to have occupied a year in hunting up and fitting together the following thirty-eight lines from thirty eight English poets. The names of the authors are given below : LIFE. I— Why all this toil for triumphs of au hour! 9—Live’s a short summer, man of flower; 3By turns we catch the vital breath and die — 4 The cradle aud the tomb, alas! so nigh, i—' To be is better far than not to be, B—Though all man’s life may seem a tragedy. 7 But light cares speak when mighty griefs are. dumb; 8— The bottom is but shallow whence they come 9 Your fate is but the common fate of all, 10— joys, here, to no man befall. ll Nature to each allots his proper sphere. 12— Fortune makes folly her peculiar care; 13— Custom does not often reason overrule 14— And throw a cruel sunshine on a fool. 15— Live well, how long orshort, perm it to heav en; 16— Tliey who forgive most, shall be most forgiv en. . 17— Siu may be clasped so close we cannot see its face— 18— Vile intercourse where virtue lias not place 19— Then keep each passion down, however dear 20— Thou pendulum, betwixt a smile aud tear; 21— Her sensual snares let faithless pleasure lay 22 With craft and skill, to ruin and betray. 23 Soar not too high to fall, but stoop to rise; 24 We masters grow of all that we despise. 25 Oh then renounce that impious self-esteem; 26 Riches have wings and grandeur is a dream -27 Think not ambition wise, because’tis brave 28— The paths ot glory lead but to the grave. 29 What is ambition? ’Tis a glorious cheat, 30— Only destructive ti the brave and great. 31— What’s all the gaudy glitter of a crown? :12«—The way to bliss lies not on beds of down. 33 How long wo live, not years but actions toll; 34 — That man lives twice who lives the first life well. 35 Make then, while yet ye may, your God your friend. 36 Whom Christians worship, jet not compre hend. 37 I The trust that’s given guard, and toyour sel f be just; 38— For, live we how we can, but die we must. 1, Young; 2, Johnson; 3, Pope; 4, Pryor; 5, Sewcl; 6, Spencer; 7, Daniel; 8, Sir Walter Ral eigh; 9, Longfellow; 10, Southwell; 11, Con greve; 12, Churchill; 13, Rochester; 14.

Tlie Moses. [The following poem was first pub lished in the Dublin University Maga zine, several years ago, and has been republished many times in the news papers, but the author has never been publicly known.] “ And he buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, over against Bethpeor, but no man knowetb his sepulchre unto this day-”—-Dept. xxiv. 6. By Nebo’s lonely mountain, On this side Jordan's wave, In a vale in the laud of Moab, Tliere liee a lonely grave ; And no man dug that sepulchre, And no man saw it e’er ; For the angel of God upturned the sod And laid the dead man there. That was the graudest funeral That ever passed on earth ; But no man heard the trampling Or saw the train go forth. Noiselessly as Comes when the night is done, And the crimson streak on ocean’s cheek Grow-s into the great sun ; Noiselessly as the spring-time Her crown of vendure weaves, And all the trees on all the hills Open their thousand leaves, — So, without sound of music Or voice of them that wept. Silently down from the mountain orown The great procession swept. Perchance the bald old eagle On gray Bothpcor’s height, Out of his rocky oyry Looked on the wondrous sight. Perchance the lion stalking Still shuns that hallowed spot. For beast and bird have seen and heard That which man knoweth not. . But when the warrior dicth, llis comrades in the war With arms reversed and muffled drum Follow the funeral car. They show the banners taken, They tell his battles won, And after him lead his masterless steed While peals the minute gun. Amid the noblest of the land Men lay the sage to rest, And give the bard an honored place With costly marble dressed ; In the great minister transept, Where lights like glories fall, And the choir sings and the organ rings, Along the emblazoned wall. This was the bravest warrior That ever buckled sword ; This the most gifted poet That ever breathed a word ; And never earth’s philosopher Traced with his golden pen. On the deathless page truths half so sago As he wrote down for men. And had he not high honor, The hillside for his pall ; To lie in state while angels wait With stars for tapers tall; And the dark rock pines, like tossing plumes, Over his bier to wave ; And God’s own hand, in that lonely land, To lay him in the grave. In the deep grave, without a name, Whence hi> uncotiined clay Shall break again-most wondrous thought Before the judgment day, And stand with glory wrapped around, On the hills he never trod. And speak of strife that won our life IViih the incarnate Son of/iou. 0 lonely tomb in Moab’s land, 0 daik Bethpeor’s hill, Speak in these curious hearts of ours. And teach them to be still. God hath his mysteries of grace— Ways that we cannot tell: lie hides them deep, like the secret sleep Os him he loved so well. A Knoxville ’etter in tho Cincinnati Commercial says : The question was asked of Mr. John son wbat he thought of the Tallantlig hani departure. “ I haven’t read the entire platform,” replied he, “but what I hear of it, there are some sensible points in it. But we must not. depart too much.— So to speak, there is as much danger iu getting too far away as staying too near. There are middle-grounds which it is the best policy to occupy. The trouble is that some of our party want to accept k>o much, and others don’t want to accept anything. It should not be the policy of the Democracy to threaten to use force against the re construction acts, or against the re cent amendments. There is a lawful and constitutional remedy for every ill. Our party is a party of peace, of law, of order. We want no violent measures. In my opinion the letter of Frank Blair to Broadhead at the eve of the last Presidential campaign did a great deal of harm. VVhy ? Be cause it was so written as to be con strued into a threat that in case the Democracy came into j>ower they would uve force against tho recon struction acts. Now, we should not threaten force, nor anything like it. There is a peaceable remedy, and that remedy is in convincing the people that tho last two amendments to the Constitution and the reconstruction acts are wrong. It is within tho pro vir.ee of the people to alter these things is they will. The true policy is to accept these things as accomplished facts, but at tho same time leave our selvosfree to hereafter urge their ab rogation at the bar of reason and jus tice. I have always had great faith in the good sense and intelligence of the American people. We must ap peal to them to remedy these evils, but to do it in a lawful and constitu tional way. Another amendment can be adopted that will do away with the evils of the last two. I have no faith in a remedy through the courts. It must be done at the bar of the people. Therefore I look for a remedy iu the future, and I am not going to say, and no other Democrat should say, that he accepts the reconstruction meas ures and amendments as finalities, aud that attempts will be made in the future to get rid of them in a lawful and peaceable manner. We should not commit ourselves to any such ab surd doctrine. We should boldly pro claim that we accept these amendments aud acts as the law of the land now, but that we will hereafter use every honorable means to convince the peo that they should be abrogated and re pealed. If the people will not do it, then, of course, it cannot be dona But for us to say that we will forever close our lips against these iniquities is d—d nonsense.” I asked Mr. Johnson what bethought of Gen. Sherman as a Democratic nominee for the Presidency. “ Sherman,” said he, “ is a smart man and a shrewd man. There is no doubt but wlml he is looking forward to the Presidency, and if he can’t get it from one party he intends to from another. He is not very particular about parties. In course of time be expects to be President, but he is iu no particular hurry about it. His chief aim now is not to lose bis popu larity, and to be ready when the gold en moment comes. He is a military man, and don’t care much about par ties. He is a good deal as Grant was after the close of the war. That l : ttle fellow had quto a notion of going with the Democracy for a while.” “ He was formerly a Democrat, was he not ?’’ “ No, he wasn’t anything. He did not have sense enough. He has got no head of his own. Sherman is a much smarter man than he as you can imagine. Frequently they have both come in to see me on business. Grant always stood back and let Sherman do the talking. The little fellow felt his inferiority, took a back seat, and let Sherman transact the business.— Sherman is a man, while Grant is nothing. Yos, sir, he is just nothing.” “ But the Republicans will be apt to renomir ate him, don’t you think ?” “ Appearances indicate that they will.” “ They have got him, and seem in clined to hold on to him.” “ No,” replied Mr. Johnson ; “he has got them, 'ihey can’t get rid of him. He is in, and intends to remain in. He has got the patronage and that infamous Ku-Klux bill o aid him. That Ku- lux law is a damnable in famy. Twenty years ago it would have shocked the American people like electricity.” HANCOCK FOR PUESIIipNT. “ You think, Mr. Johnson, that there S. H. Smith <s' Ca~, Proprietors. is no prospect that the Democracy will take Sherman ?” “ No, t.bey will not he apt to tako him. Generally speaking, I am op posed to a military man on the ticket, hut if it is necessary that we hare one, why not take OJeueral Hancock ? He is a soldier, a statesman, a scholar, and a geutloman. He is a noble Bp(ci men of a man every w*iy you take him, physically or mentally. There is no comparison between Grant and him. Grant is ho man ; he is nothing.'’ “It seems to me, Mr. Johnson, that the Democracy have a goldeu oppor tenity to win next year if they will act sensibly.” “ Yes, so they have, as you say, if they act sensibly. But will they ? —- There are men in the South,especially , who are continually committing blun ders. Now, look at the speech of Jeff. Davis, recently made at Augusta, in which he talks about the lost cause, and all such foolishness. That will trumpeted all over the North, to frighten men away from the Demo cratic party. I have no doubt but what his Selma speech contributed much towards our defeat in Connecti cut. Chris!Utility on Trial. Dr. Newman, at Washington, said from his pulpit. ‘I am neither a proph et nor the son of a prophet, yet I ven ture this prediction: Whithin the next decade, aye, within the next five years, Christianity will be tried as it has nev er been tried before. There are men in England and Amer.ca to-day, who will bring to the assault a ripeness of scholarship, a power of intellect, and a breadth of view unequalled by the past.’ DovS Dr. Newman fear the result f Let the trial be made, by all means.— The storms of eighteen centuries have beaten against the living rock of Chris tianity, yet its strength and glory has only been deepened and brightened by the conflict. Its base is the universe,, its crowu bears the golden mansion* of immortality. The sun light of hu man intellect will only serve to bring into sharper outline of the heavenly beauty of its structure, and to throw into still darker shade the pigmy tow ers of Babel, which olden superstition or modern infidelity have sought to rear in blasphemous mockery of the- Rock of Ages. By all moans, Dr. New man, let the test of Christianity begin. [True Georgian. Stealing un Elephant. Several frisky young braves ©f the Pottawattamie tribe attended Rober son’s circus while the {bowman was iu Kansas, and they were so much strued with the “Father of Animals,” as they called the elephant, that they resolved to steal him. The plan was carried in to execution at a late hour in the night. But when the elephant was released,, the Pottawattamies were at their wit’s end to know what to do w’th him.— The elephant solved this perplexing question in a very unexpected manner. Raising his snout, he scattered the young braves right and left, and charg ed down upon the Indian camp. Only nineteen wigwams were destroyed, and John Robinson recovered his elephant the next day. Several of the Poitn wattamies will not visit any more cir cusea JteiT'A remarkable story comes to ns from Michigan relative to the forma tion of anew birth of anew harbor at Portage Lake. The story briefly is, that a number of sellers, who were ag grieved by the existence of a dam on Portage Creek, which raised the wa ters of Portage Lake some eight or ten feet above the waters of Lake Michigan, dug a small ditch across the neck of land between Portage Lake and Lake Michigan. The pent up waters rushed through wfith tremendous force, teariug up and carrying off forest trees and hills, until now there is a channel nearly four hundred feet w'ide and over twenty feet deep, connecting the two lakes, and thus forming one of the best harbo"s on that coast. Terrible Tragedy. j Sin Frovtim) June 5.—A terrible ! tragedy at an earl}’ hour yesterday j evening, at Cherokee Flat. It appears : that a number of ladies and gentlemen ' were returning from a party, to which they had been the night previous, and, while walking along the road, an Ital ian, known as “Austrian George,” sud denly sprang into the road, seizing one of the party, a voung girl named Liz zie McDarly, drew a knife and cm. her throat from ear to ear. Her death was instant. She was eighteen years of age. The murderer had been hoi 1 lover for four years and was excited to the commission of the deed by jeal ousy. . .
