WHO'S WHO! *
Who, when I feel a lime ill,
Sends me a daily draught and pill,
Followed by tremendous bill!
My doctor!
Who preaches self-denying views,
Charges a heavy rate for pews,
And calls on me for Easter dues!
My parson!
Who, when a lawsuit I Wave won,
For a large sum begins to dun,
To which the * extra Costs’ have run !

Composed of wholesome beef alone,

TO THE CITY OF NOTIONS.
Nehemiah Flufkins was one of those
unfortunate specimens of the genus homo,
that seem by some accident to have bare
ly escaped shooting out of the ground in
the form of a cabbage’ to have been born
with all the outward semblance of human
ity.—Spite ol his awful greenness, Fluf
kins was an observant chap, anxious to
look about the world, and to use his own
words, be ‘ some pumpkins.’ He came
to Boston one day to see the elephant,
and innocently suffered all manner of
tricks to be played upon him, such as
paying twenty-five cents to go inside the
common, a charge made by a cunning
boy, who discovered that Flufkins had
‘just down.’ Another of the ‘b’boys,*
who had received his cue from the lad who
charged his entrance fee to the public
Common, slopped Nehemiah as he came
out and passed down Tremont street, and
politely tapping him on the arm, he said :
‘ Filly cents fine, sir,’ at the same time
holding out his hand for the money. *
‘Fifty cents ! Creation, what fur?
The mayor’s house sir.’
Wot of that ?’ asked Flufkins, looking
at the house designated by the other.
‘You have passed it just now, without
taking offyour hat!’
* How yer talk. S’posin’ 1 did ?’
‘Why, that’s fifty cents fine in Bos
ton.’
‘No!’
* Certainly ; and unless you pay it, I
shall he obliged to take you to the Police
Office.’
•W-h-e-w! Well here's a half.—
Let’s see which house it is,’ said Nehemi.
ah, taking off his hat.
‘ Thai’s it, sir, the next but one to
where we stand.’
* WjII, I won’t git caught agin, any
how,’ said ehe innocent Flufkins, as lie
walked back and forth before the house
of a green grocer, and fixed the spot in
his mind !
Scarcely had Nehemiah Flufkins turned
another corner, before be was slop*
ped by a third person, who had got the
bint from the other two operators.
‘ What’s (he matter now !* asked Nehe
miah, * I haven’t passed another mayor’s
house have I ?’
•No but you forgot your landing fee.’
‘ Landin’ fee—what's that
‘ Why, head money! Do yer have to
pay for keeping your head oo ?’ asked
Nehemiab, innocently.
•No—you don’t understand, my friend.
I perceive that you must be a stranger to
the city.’
* Wall, I guss 1 am/
* You see the law is, that any person
arriving in the town for the first time, shall
pay seventy-five cents head money/
‘ Du tell.’
’ Yes. What route did yon come by/
* Fiizburg railroad/
’ That’s it!’ exclaimed his prosecutor
as though he had made a discovery.
1 What's it V asked Neheraiah. 1
,he fel, °" Ul ' polic *
* After me, what fur ?’
* For slipping away without paying
your head money.
* Wail, look a here, nabor, it's pretty
expensive business, ’pears to me ; but
there's three quarters, will that fix it ?’
4 Yes that is a!! right—yon are free
now to look about the town,’ said the oth
er walking away with a suppressed chuc
kle.
‘Thank ye,’ said Flulkins; ‘only to
think of the perleece after me! Well,
that was an escape.*
If there was one thing above anoih?T
for which Nehemiah had a weakness, it
was smoking. At home, his pipe was in
his mouth half (he lime and seeing some
cigars in a window, Jte fell the desire
come over him, and so hg walked in, pun
chased a ‘ long nine,* lit it, and walked
out into the street, smoking as he went
along, looking into the windows in Wash
ington street. The tact was, Nehemiah
was how really breaking a city ordinance
and laying himself liable to a fine. It
was not long before a policeman, with his
badge of office on his hat, accosted him.
‘Siryou must put out that ci'jar and
walk with me,’ said the officer, with an
air of decision that staggered Nehemiah.
’ What fur ?’ stammered Fluffing.
‘ Smoking in'the street.’
* Is there a fine for that tew ?’
‘ Yes sir.’
4 How much ?’
‘Five dollars.’
‘ Creation! Five dollars. I haven’t
got but six left.’
4 Can’t help it, you must go with me.’
4 Look a’ here—hold on,’ said Nehe
miah ; 4 1 don’t want to go no whar.’
4 But, you must,* said the officer at the
same looking about him slyly, and
seeing ho one very near, he added : 4 If
you choose to pay me why it will save
your being locked up.’
4 Locked up? Creation I Here there’s
five dollars,’ said Nehemiah, handing the
officer the money, who pocketed the
change, and walked away—leaving Mr.
Flufkins standing alone seemingly afraid
to move ba< kwards or forwards, for fear
he should incur another fine.
this was the case ; Flufkins was
lest he should break some
other unknown law of the city. He
thought the maat^ M pyer,j>as well as he
could in his confused state of mind and re
membering that he had just|cme dollar
left, enough to carry him home in the
cars, lie looked all about him for a mo
ment to see that no one was by to stop
him, and then, 4 scratched gravel’ like a
new one, back towards the spot. As he
approached the grocer’s house that had
been pointed out to him as the mayor’s,
he pulled offhis hat and only run the fas
ter, until he was out of sight ol it.
At the head of Hanover street, he was
partially stopped by someone who wish
ed to ask the way to some other part of
the city, being like himself a strnger —
but Nehemiah—had eyes and ears for on
ly one thing, and understanding the ques
tion, halloed out:
Can’t help it if ’tis a fine to run ; I
haven’t got po money.’ And he dashed
on like mad towards the railroad station.
Nehemiah didn’t let on murh about bis
visit to Boston, but merely said he didn’t
stay long, it was so pesky expensive.
The Fakir Again. —This wonder
ful necromancer assumes, Proteus like, as
many shapes as characters. We hear of
his acturily performing, in the market, the
other morning, the following experiment
on an egg man:
‘Whai’s ihe price of eggs?’ asked the
Fakir of a broad brimmed countryman.
‘Eight cents a doxen, if you want a
single dozen.’
‘i only want one,’ says the Fakir, ‘will
you take five cents for ibis one?
‘Go away, Mister, don’t bother me—l
want to sell my eggs.’
4 1’1I give you five cents for this one,’
replies tbe Fakir, cooly picking up an
‘g g
‘Well, If you’re such a fool, you may
take it.’
The Fakir gave him the five cents,
took out his knife and cjacked the egg,
and out rolled ten or twelve half Eagles.
Placing them in his pocket—‘l’ll take
another,’ five cent piece.
Cracking the next, out rolled as many
more.
‘l’ll take all them eggs, says the Fakir.
‘No you don’t!’ says the man, covering
his coat (ail over the basket, and making
tracks away for home in such haste, that
expert boys could have played marbles
on his coat tail, it stuck out so short.
We have not heard the result but rath
er guess (hat if the country broker open>
ed his eggs, he did not find much else
than the yolk and white and shell.
We saw the Fakir drop a dollar in the
bottom of the basket, so that the cost
that should ensue would not fall on the
egg dealer.’

IMPORTANT TO THE AFFLICTED !
AMONG the inany important discoveries and improve

his power to offer to those afflicted, a remedy for Cancer,

was discovered bv Dr, B. SHEPARD, of Vermont, and
made’successful w his own case, after vigilant trial and
failure rtf nil other popular remedies within his reach- —
Who, together with the undersigned have mads appli
cation of said remedy...to many, cases with : astonishing
success. This remedyis'freaafrom all mineral, or vege
table poisons, and haa I'l n ippjii.ij with safety and suc
cess to Cancer of the tongue.
This remedy is deemed certain in far happy effect.if
timely application is made, before the diftise reaches in
ternal organs, or She case aggravated by improper rem
edies.
Caution.— The undersigned has been an eye wittiest
to many cases of this dreadftil malady, and has seen
various methods of treatment, and believes all propoei
ions to cure without pain, as delusive, as no such case
has met bis observation. . ,
There are some cases, from the organs implicated, ad
vanced age of the patient, or from misapplication, that
render them hopeless, even to the remedy now offered to
the public.
AH pereous who apply in person or by written de
scription of their case giving its size, location, age, gen
eral health and habits, together with the remedies that
have been used, may expect a candid answer as to the
result of their case.
It connot be too forcibly impressed on those afflicted
with Cancer, to make early application as delay is dan
gerous, and prolongs the hours of suffering in the cure.

A VOICE FROM GEORGIA.
Read the following testimony from a
Fhysician.
Gentlemen— Your Hebrew Plaster has cured me of
pains of which I have suffered for twelve years past.—
During this period 1 labored under an affliction of my
loins and side, and tried many remedies that my own
medical experience suggested, hut without obtaining re
lief. At length I used your Plaster, and am now by its
good effects entirely cured. I will recommend the Jew
David or Hebrew Plaster to all who are suffering from
contraction of the muscles, or permanent pains in the
side or hack.
The people of Georgia have but to become acquainted
with its virtues when tliey will resort to its use.

Messrs. Scovill Si Mead: I have been troubled with
the chronic rheumatism for the last twelve years. On
the Ist of July. 1849,1 was so bad that I could not turn
myself in bed, and the pain io severe that I had not
slept a wink for six days. At this time my attending
•Msician prescribed the “Hebrew Plaster,” and it acted
like ajdtarm; the pain left me, and I slept more than
half of MiMXjgdMiiafid in three days I was able to ride

Extract from a Letter.
Competence end Health.
“ Lancaster, Pa., Oct. 94, 1147.
” Mr Dear Sir : I know yen will have th* Mad
ness to beer with me io encroaching upon year time,
while I acknowledge (In behalf of myself end wife)
the obligations wa Teel oureelvee under to you ia nav
; tpg made known certain matters, contained inyour
moat invaluable ‘Married Woman'e’Private Mtdlcal
Companion.’ It haa been worth ita weight ia gold
to the. If I express myself ratber warmly, y*a will
■ea that I can not do so too warmly, whoa I inform
you of the extent to which I have, through it, been
benefited. 1 will state my situation when I obtained
your book through the merest curiosity I look upon
it ea cue of the most fortunate events of ay life. I
had been married some ten years, aad was the father
of seven children. I was long struggling unceasingly,
to the end that I might gain a moderate competency,
but the results of my utmost exertions at the end left
me about where I was at the beginning of each year;
and that only, with’ the most stinted economy, suffi
cing with bsrely the necessaries of Hf*. Finally, this
constant effort was beginning to hare it* effect upon
my health: I felt leas capable to endure ita centiau
ance, while I felt the necessity of perseverance.
“ This constant, unceasing struggle on my part was
imperative, in conesnuenc* of the prostrated condi
tion of my wife (with occasional intermission) for six
years, much of the time confined to her bed, sad of
course incapable of taking tbe charge and manage
ment of household affairs. Her condition arose from
causes jf which I was ignorant. Ob! what would
I have given bad I tbe aix yean to live over again!
What would my wife have given to have been spared
