AN INTERESTING INCIDENT.
The foliowing exceedingly interesting
incident we copy from the Greenville (S.
C.) Patriot :
‘l’lte other day, in conversation with
M iss Dix, the philanthropist, during her
visit to Greenville, a lady said to tier
‘ Are you not afraid to travel all over the
xriurrtry alone, and have you not encouns
tertfd.dangers and been perilous situa
• / am naturally timid,’Lsaid iviiss Dix,
‘ and diffident, like all my sex ; hut, in
order to carry out my purposes, 1 know
that it is necessary to make sacti&£s and
encounter dangers. It is true I have been, <;
id my travels through the different States,
in perilous situations. 1 will mention
one, which oacurred in the Slate of Michi
gan. 1 had hired a carriage and driver
to convey me some distance through an
uninhabited portion of the country. In
starting, I discovered that the driver a
young lad, had a pair of pistols with him.
Inquiring what he was doing with arms,
he said he carried them to protect us, as
lie had heard that robberies had been
committed on our road, /said to him,
give me the pistols, 1 will take care of
them. He did so reluctantly.
In pursuing our fourney through a dis
mal looking forest, a man rushed into the
road, caught the horses by the bridle, and
demanded my purse. I said to him, with
as much self-possession as I could com’
rnand. * Are you not ashamed to rob a
woman ? 1 have but little money, and that
I want to defray my expenses in visiting
prisons and poor houses, and occasional
ly in giving to objects of charily. If you
have been unfortunate, are in distress,
and in want of money, I will give you
some.’ Whilst titus speaking to him, I
discovered his countenance changing,
and lie became deathly pale. ‘My God,’
he exclaimed, * That voice !’ and imme
diately told me that he had been in (lie
Philadelphia Penitentiary, and had heard
me lecturing some of the prisoners in an
adjoining cell, and that he now recog
nised my voice. He then desired me to
pass on, and expressed deep sorrow at
the outrage he had committed. But 1
drew out niv purse and said to him, I will
give von something In support you until
you can get into honest employment.”—
He declined, at first, taking am think, un
til I insisted on his doing so, (or fear lie
might he tempted to rob someone else
before he could gel into honest employ,
ment.
I Wonder if all the stories about Cali
fornia morals and manners which we
j see in the papers are true? The follow,
ing card, which is said to have been pub
lished in a San Francisco paper hy a
California widow, we suspect was -fixed
- up* a considerable distance this side the
i Golden Gat?.
Husband Wanted.-—Whereas my
1 husband has left me w ithout provocation
’ on my part, 1 hereby advertise for a
, suitable person to fill the vaneancy.—
The gentleman applying must have blue
eyes, light mustache, (my husband had
black) an attractive goatee, and a gen
teel figure. He must not be over tweenty
. five years of age, well educated of unex
ceptionable morals, and aggreeable un
dress. It is requisite that his personable
incumbrances should be limited and bis
prospective fortunes flattering. No gam
blers need apply. Address

made successful in his own ease, after vigilant trial and
failure of all other popular remedies within his reach’-
Who, together wUh the undersigned have made‘appli
cation of said remedy to many cases with uKionuiiiiig?
success. This remedy is free from all mineral, or vege
table poisons, and lias lieen applied with safety and suc

This remedy is deemed certain in its happy effect, if
timely application is made, before the disease readies in
ternal organs, or the rase aggravated by improper rem
edies.
Caution. —The undersigned has been In eye witness
to many cases of this dreadful malady, and has seen
various methods of treatment, and believes aii proposi

lias met his observation.
There are some cases, from the organs implicated, ad

render them hopeless, even to the remedy now offered to
the public. , .
All persons who apply in person or by written de

have been used, may expect* a candid answer as

Read the following testimony from a

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, but without obtaining re
lief. At length 1 used your Plaster, and am now by its
good effects entirely cured 1 will recommend the Jew
David or Hebrew Plaster to all who are suffering from
contraction of the muscles, or permanent pains m the
side or back.
I he people of Georgia have but to become acquainted
with its virtues when they will resort to its use.

like a charm; the pain left me, and I slept more than

“ Dxtton, May 1, 1847.
“Dr A. M. MiCRicXiU— My Dear ‘sir: ‘The
Married Woman's Private Medical Companion.’ tor
which I cnclo*eil one dollar to your address, came
safely to hand. I would not have troubled yon with
these few lines, but that 1 am impelled by a sense
of gratitude, for myself and wife, to give utterance
to oar sincere and heartfelt emotion*.
“My wife has been perceptibly sinking for some
three vears or more, in consequence of her great an
guish and suffering some months before and during
conKnement; every snccesaive one more and more
debilitated and prostrated her, putting her life in un
minent danger, and which was, on the last occasion,
despaired of. 1 supposed that thia state of thing* was
inevitable, and reaigned myaelf to meet the worst.
At thin time (now about two months) 1 heard your
book highly spoken of. as containing some matters
reaching my case On its receipt and perusal, 1 can
not express to you the relief it afforded toy distressed
mind and the joy its pages imparted to mv wife, on
learning that the great discovery of M. M. Deso

Competence and Health.
“ Lancaster, Pa., Oot 24, 1847.
“Mr Dear Sir: I know you will have the kind*
nett* to be*r with me in encroaching upon your time,
while I acknowledge (in behalf of myself and wife)
the obligation* we feel ouraelvea under to you in har
ing made known certain matter*, contained in your
moil invaluable ‘ Married Woman’s Private Medical
Companion.’ It has been worth ita weight in gold
me. Ts I express myself rather warmly, vou will
jjflgge that I can not do so too warmly, when I inform
: of the extent to which I have, through it, been
Gefetfited. 1 will state my situation when I obtained
- your book through the merest curiosity I look upon
it as one of the moot fortunate events of my life. I
had been married some ten years, and was the father
of seven children. 1 was long struggling unceaHingly,
to the end that I might gain a moderate competency,
but the relinks of my utmost exertions at the end left
me about where 1 was at the beginning of each year;
and that only, with the most stinted economy, suffi
cing with lumily the necessaries of life. Finally, this
constant effort was beginning to have its effect upen
my health: I felt h-ss capable to endure its continu
ance, while I felt the necessity of poraeverance.
“ This constant, unceasing struggle on my pnrt wa*
imperative, in consequence of the prostrated condi
tion of my wife /with occasional intermission) for six
years, much of th& time confined to her bed, and of
course incapable of taking the charge and manage
ment of household affairs. Her condition arose from
causes of which I was ignorant. Oh! what would
I have given had l the six years to live over again!
What would my wife have given to have been spared
the long day* and still longer nights prostrate on a
bed of sickness! all of which would have been
avoided, had I then seen a copy of • The Married
Woman’s Private Medical Companion.”’
