Cubebs extracted by displacement with spirits spirits obtained from Junip r Berries: very little sugar Is use**, and a small proportion of spirit. It is more palateable than any now in use. Buchu, as prepared by Druggists, is of a light color. It is a plant that emits its fragrance j the action 01 a H.uie destroys this (its active urinoiple,) leaving a dark and glutinous decoctiou. Mine is the color of ingredients. The Buchu In my preparation predomi nates; the smallest quantity of the other ingredients are added, to prevent fermentation ; upon inspec tion, it will be found not to be a Tincture, as made in Pharmacopeia, nor is it a Syrup—and therefore can be used in cases where fever or inflammation ex ist. In this, you have the knowledge of the ingredi ents and the mode of preparation.

HI m BULL'S I «re a t Re medies SMITH'S TOP STROP I FOR THE CUOF AGUE AND FEVER OR CHILLS AND FEVER. The proprietor of this celebrated medicine justly claims for it a superiority over all remedies ever offer ed to the public for the safe, certain, speedy and per manent cure of Ague and Fever ,or Chilis and Fever whether of short or long standing. He refers to the entire Western and Southwestern country to bear him testimony to the truth of the assertion, that in no case whatever will it fall to cure, if the directions are strict ty followed and carried out. In a great many cases a single dose has been sufficient for a cure, and whole families have been enred by a single bottle, with a per fect restoration of the general health. It is, however, priident. and in every case tnord certain to cure, if its use is continued in smaller doses for a week or two af ter the disease has been checked, more especially in difficult and long standing cases. Usually, this medi cine will not require any aid to keep the bowels in good order; should the patient, however, require a cathartic medicine, after having taken three or four doses of the Tonic, a single dose of BULL’S VEGETA BLE FAM’LY PIILS will be sufficient. DR, JOHN BULL’S Principal Office No. 40 Fifth, Cross street, Louisville, Kv< Bull’s Worm Destroyer. To my United States and World wide Read era: IHAVE received many testimonials from prgfes sionaj and medical men,, as my almanacs and vari ous publications have shown, all of which are genuine. The following from a highly educated and popular phpsician in Georgia, is certainly one of the most sen sible oommunic&tionf I have ever received. Dr. Clem ent knows exactly what he speaks of, and his testimo ny deserves to be written in letters of gold. Hear what the Doctor says of Built $ Worm Destroyer Villanow, Walker co., Ga, J June 29th, 1866 ) DR. JOHN BULL—Dear Sir: —I have recently giv en your “Worm Destroyer” several trials, and find it wonderfully efficacious. It has not failed in a single instance, to have the wished-for effect. lam doing a pretty large country practice, and have dally use for gome article of the kind. lam free to confess that I know of no remedy recommended by the ablest authors that is so certain and speedy in its effects. On the con trary they are uncertain in the extreme. My object in writing you is to find out upon what terms I can get the medicine directly from you. If I can get it upon easy terms, I shall use a great deal of it. lam aware that the use of such articles is contrary to the teachings and practice of a great majority of the reg ular line of M. D.’s, but I see no just cause or good sense in discarding a remedy which we know to be ef ficient, simply because we may be ignorant of its com bination. For my part, I shall make it a rule to use all and any means to alleviate suffering hum inity which I may be able to command—not hesitating because someone more ingenious than myself may have learn d its effects first, and secured the sole right tc secure hat knowledge. However, lamby no mtans »n ad vocate or supporter of the thousands of worthless nos trums that flood the country, that purport to cure all manner of disease to which honun flesh is heir.— Please reply soon, and inform me of your best terms. I am,sir, most respectfully, JULIUS P. CLEMENT, M. D. Bull’s Sarsaparilla. A GODD REASON F°R THE CAPTAIN’S FAITH, READ THE CAPTAIN’S LETTER AND THE LET TER FROM HIS MOTHER. Benton Barracks, Mo., April SO, 1806. Dr. John Bull—Dear Sir: Knowing the efficiency of yocir Sarsaparilla, and the healing and beneficial qualities it possesses, I send you the following state ment of ray case: I was wounded about two years ago—was taken prisoner and confined for sixteen months. Being moved so often, my wounds have not healed yet. I have not sat up a moment since 1 was wounded. I am shot through the hips. My general health is im paired, and I need something to assist nature. I have mere faith in your Sarsaparilla than in any thing else. I wish that that is genuine. Please express me half a dozen bottles, and oblige Capt. C, P. JOHNSON, St. Louis, Mo. P. S.—The following was written April 89,1865, by Mrs. Jennie Johnson, mother of Capt Johnson. Dlt. BULL—Dear Sir: My husband, Dr. C. 8. John son, was a skillful surgeon and physician in Cfentral New York, where he died, leaving the above C. P. Johnson to my care. At thirteen year* of age he had a chronic diarrhoea and scrofula, for which I gave him your Sarsaparilla. IT CURED HIM. I have for ten years recommended It to many in New York, Ohio, and lowa, for scrofula, fever mres, and general debili ty. Perfect success has attended it. The cures effect ed in some cases of scrofula and fever tores were almost miraculous lam very anxious for my son to again have recourse to your Barsaparilia. He is fear ful of getting a spurious article, hence his writing to you for it. His wounds were terrible, but I believe he will recover. Respectfully, JENNIE JOHNSON. BULL'S CEDRON BITTERS.

Hints 10 Preuchcrs. Make bo apologies. If you have the Lord’s message, declare it; if not, your peace. Have short prefaces and introductions. Say your best first, and stop before you get prosy.— Do not spoil the appetite for dinner by too much thin soup. Leave self out of the pulpit, and take Jesus in. Defend the gospel, and let the Lord defend you and your character. If you are lied about, thank the devil for putting you on your guard, and take care that the story shall never come true.— Do not grumble about your pay. If you want money, go to work and earn it. Do not get excited too soon. Do not run away from your hearers. En gine driving wheels whirl fast on an icy track, but when they draw any thing they go slower. It takes a cold hammer to bend a hot iron. Heat up the people, but keep the hammer wet and cool. Do not bawl and scream.— Too much water stops the mill wheels, and too much noise drowns sense.— Empty vessels ring the loudest. Pow der is not shot. Thunder is harmless. Lightning kills. If you have lightning, you can afford to thunder. Do not scold the people. Do not abuse the faithful souls who come to meeting rainy days, because others are too lazy to attend. Preach the best to the smallest assemblies.— Jesus preached to one woman at the well, and she got all Samaria out to hear him next time. Ventilate your meeting-room. Sleeping in church is due to bad air oftener than the bad manners. Do not repeat sentences over, saying, ‘as I said before .’ If you said it before, say something else after. Do not end sentences, passages of scripture or quotations with ‘and so forth’ say what you mean and stop.— Leave off all words you can’t define.— Dr. Johnson. How Billy Blobs Raised* tbe Devil. A physician prescribed “country air and sea-bathing,” for the delicate Mrs. Blobs; so the Rev. Mr. B. sent his af fectionate wife and “meek and lowly” Billy, to Long Branch. The reverend gentleman told little Billy to write to him as soon as thej r were settled there. Truthful Billy sent the following epis tle, without bothering his ma to read it first: Dear Daddy —lt is awful nice here in the country, and me and ma are hav ing such jolly times. I think the nic est place in the world is a watering place, don’t you, daddy ? At first I felt awful lonesome without you, and says I to dear ma: ‘When is pa comming from the city?’ “Never, I hope, Billy,” says she s “your father’s such a dry old stick, and we are much better off without him." Oh, daddy ! you wouldn’t know ma now if you hadn’t seen her before— she’s looking so well and young. She has taken to wearing such lots of hair and fine things; and our maid, Sally, says she doesn’t look older than many a gal of seventeen. Ma’s got a real splendid beau too, with such moustach es and whiskers! calls him Char lie. I call him a brick, because he gives me such heaps of candy. Sally says he’s the beaulifulest gentleman she ever saw. The waiter fellows here are bally boys, Pap, and I get no end of stale tares, pies and pound cake, besides bot tled ale and tobacco. They are teach ing me to play euchre, too, and I think it’s a real nice game. Ma has no time to look after me; she’s so taken up with dressing, dancing, and dear Char lie. Oh, pa! I want to see you awful bad; but don’t come yet —it would, make ma so hopping mad. Please write soon, and don’t forget to send me plen ty of pocket money. A fellow can’t do without “tin” here. Your affectionate son. Billy. Billy,s letter was accompanied by one from Mrs. Blobs which ran “thus ly:” My Dearest Husband —My health is a little better, thank the Lord, and I begin to enjoy the Sabbath-like peace of this splendid place. I miss you ve xj much and my thoughts are often you; but, for the sake of your flock, I will not ask you to join me at present. Dear little Billy and the Bi ble are my usual companions, though when I seek it, I find a good deal of religious society here. Are you lonely without me, dear husband ? I hope not, for the fresh, invigorating air here is doing me more good than medicine, and if I could remain until September, I believe I might be restored to my former health. Give my fondest love to the dear sisters of our church, and tell them I remember them in my prayers. I read - your soul-stirring sermon i a Monday’s Inquirer. It filled my heart with great peace and comfort. With love and many kisses I bid you-. Adieu. Will write soon, again. Our Billy sends a note, which you will ceive with this v— * WI e » Lucy Blobbs. HO. 25. Mr. Blobbs, in a state more easily imagined than described, left for Long Branch immediately after reading the above epistles. How Mrs. Blobbs re- - ceived her indignant lord and master* we don’t know, but he brought her. back to Gotham. Last Sunday she sat in her old pew at church, looking very sorrowful. The pastor, Mr. Blobbs, preached a very eloquent ser mon. “Last Words” of Eminent Men. —Wo had a curious dream last night. We dreamed that the world had grown about sixty years older; that the present generation had ail passed away, save our-self, and that we picked up a book in which was recorded the “Last Words” of some of the eminent* men of the present day. Some of these ‘‘Last Words” struck us with such, force that we reproduce them: Ruxus B. Bullock— “ Hurry up, Hul bert! My‘Election’day has come!’’■ Scruggs, of the “Era” —“lt dosen’t matter!. I can Lie easy on either side.” Foster B ..odgett —“l’ll sivvar it.” George P. Burnett —“ Grease me* boys, and let me slide.” R. L. McWhorter —“Lend me a dol lar’ till I sell my dog.” Sam Bard— “ Send me my summer clothes.” Varney Gaskill —“Pardon me; my. lowest price is one thousand l” ‘Aron Alpeoria” —“ A a-h-o-o-o!” Bryant —“ Kiss me Scott before L 99 go- O’Neal —l’m suffering from “silent mortification.” Fitzpatric— “Playen liguor with a. dhrap of shugar.” Tom Tit Tweedy —Dident have any. “last words.” He was still alive. Prov idence had forgotten him and hence didn’t kill him. Obediah Johnson. —“Hembold is a failure.” (These words were very (bu)c(h)urious and few understood them. — Dome Commercial From the Plain Dealer, 90th. 1 The Earthquake.. AMUSING INCIDENTS. A gentlemanly-looking young man was taking a drink in Joe Murch's sa loon, on Bunk street, when the shock of earthquake (or what ?) was felt.— He had the glass poised in his hand, and was about raising it to his lips,, when ho felt a rocking motion. He im mediately became alarmed, and thought he had the premonitory symptons of de lirium tremens. Said he, “Gentlemen, if it has come to this; if my nerves have got so d—d shaky as this, I must quit.. Good bye, old benaine.” One man of an economical disposition was at work with a dirty apron and slippers on, his new coat and new boots, being close by. When he felt the shock, and saw the other men in the room with one accord rush out of the apartment, he felt there was some great danger, but he was not prepared to sacrifice his coat nor his boots —no, sooner would he perish in the ruins of the building than desert them, as life without those pet articles would be cheerless to him. So he called out, “Wait, boys, till I get my new boots!” as though they were in duty bound to keep him company if he must die—and> cramming his hat on his head, thrust ing one arm into a sleeve of the coat, and grabbing the boots in the other haud, followed on, descending three or four steps at a time. His appearance when he reached the side walk was lu dicrous in the extreme, and those who saw him, though participating in the same alarm, could not forbear to smile. One gentleman, sitting quietly writ ing at a desk, all at once felt his head involuntarily moving from, side to side, his hand was unsteady, and it occur red to him that he was attacked with paralysis or appoplexy. Quietly he rose from his chair and hastened to the window, where he rested his head, against a cool plane of glass and calm-i ly composed himself to die. Looking out on the street, he saw the walks lined with people in every direction, and concluding that perhaps his time “hadn’t come, after all,” he marched out to ascertain what the matter was.
