■LI- ij Jjm n—■ NEWSPAPER collecting. The following roost amusing letter Was orginally written for a South Carolina paper, by a collector sent out on a tour for the office, It will do for almost any meridian as well as that of South Caro lina. My Dear Sir : I have jnsts returned from a tour through this Slate, and pro ceed to furnish you with an account of my labors and their success. 1 have beep gone for three months, and / assure you, in all sincerity, that lam fully satisfied. Y on furnished me a list of 117 owing subscribers as you will recollect. I have called on 104 of them, and have the hon or paying over to your order $3 12 I*2, being the amount to which you are enti. tied. 1 return you the list numbered 1 to 117, aud now give you the reply of each: No. I—ls a minister. He he says, in the first place, he never got one-half of the numbers, (a lie according to the account of the post master,) and in the next place, your joker’s column was too scurrilious. He can’t think of aiding to sustain a pa per that advertises horse races aud gan der pullings. Besides, he knows from the tone of your editorials that you drink, and paying you would only be the means of your ending your days in the kennel. He wonders at your impudence in sending him his bill after publishing the aocuunt ol the great prize fight between Left Handed Smoke and Balering Bill. He wants nothing from vou—never wants to hear from you again. No. 2 —ls in jail for debt. He says not seen a half dollar lor a year. Says he would pay with the utmost cheerfulness, it he only had the money, but had to bor row a shirt to put on last Sunday. Ad mires your paper wonderfully, and hopes you will continue sending it to him. He wishes you to take a bold stand in favor of the abolition of imprisonment for debt, as he thinks it would be a very popular move with gentlemen in his situation.- you send him any more pape-is, he ■Efipes that you see that the postage is pai(J, as otherwise he will be unable to en joy your bends his best No. 3—ls a young doctor; says your papers is beneath the notice of a gentle man. Wouldn’t give a—— for a cart load. Says you inserted an article re flecting on the profession. Only wishes he could catch yon here; would make you smell —. Is going to persuade every body that takes your paper to stop it. Cursed your bill, and says you can collect it in the best way you can. No. 4—ls an old maid. Says you’fe always taking a fling at single ladies of an uncertain age. Wouldn’t pay you if the was rolling in wealth, and you hadn’t cash enough to buy you a crust'of bread. Sent all the papers she had back, and says she don’t owe you anything; that the is even with you, and means to keep so until the day of judgement. Asked me nut to forget to tell you that you are no gentleman, or you wouldn't under take to slander a large and respectable class of the female population of the country. No. 5 —ls a gambler; a sporting gen tleman. Says he got perfectly cleaned out last week at the races. Couldn’t ac commodate his grandmother to a half dime, il she was starving. Likes your paper tolerably; would like it better if you published more about races, and would occasionally give an account of a cock fight. Liked the description of the prize|fight mostjamazingly; it redeemed a multitude of your faalts. Hopes you wont think hard of him for not paying you now, but has got a prospect of soon having some loose change, as he is after a rich young greenhorn, who arrived here last week. Will pay you out of the pluck ings. No. 6—ls an old drunkard. Hasn't got anything and never expects to have. Gathered up all the old papers he had and sold them for a half pint of rum to the doggery keeper, to wrap groceries in. Wished you would send him a pile, as they cost him no postage, his brother-in law being postmaster, and pormiliing him to take out his papers for nothing. Winked at me when I presented your bill, and inquired if 1 wasnt a distant relation of the roan that butted the bull of the bridge. No. 7—ls a magistrate. Swore he never owed you a cent, and told me I was a low rascal, for trying to swindle him in such a barefaced manner. Advise me to make tracks in little less than no time, or he would get out a warrant for me as a common cheat and have me sent to prison. Took his advice. Is by all odds the meanest man I have seen yet. Will never go near him again. No. B—ls a politician. Says although you publish a neutral paper, it was not so. Thinks he has seen a considerable squill ing towards the side to which he is op posed. Meant to have told] you a year a go to stop my paper, but forgot it.— i Tells you to do so now, and thinks you are getting off very cheaply in not loos ting any more by him. Believes you to be a rascal, and is too honorable to have anything to do with you, as it might compromise him and injure his pros pects. No. 9—Paid up like a man.] The on s ly one. Likes your paper first rate, and > means to lake it; pay for it as/long as you r publish it or he lives. Asked me to t ner, and treated me like a king, A'n - oasis in the desert, A man fit lor hear veu. I No. 10—7s a merchant. Expects to ■ break shortly; must save all his small ’ change. Offered me a pair of breeches and a cotton hankerchief for ihe debs.— Refused with scorn. Had a long jaw. , | Threatened to break my head. Dared him to do it. Threw a hatchet at me.— I dodged it and put out. Nos. 11 to 117 —Means as rot. Had no money, wouldn’t pay; didn’t owe. I swore /’d sue. Said I might sue and be hanged. Cursed all the little ones and hurried from the big. Never got the red cent from one of them. Please ccept my resignation, and strike my name from your lists of agents. I admire your paper very much myself, but it would be a queer-looking sort of a concern that would come fully up to the requirements of everybody. One wants independence in an editor, another wouldn’t touch a paper that contained an irreverent line with a ten foot pole. One sentimental, lackadiasical Miss, in pantes lettes, wanted nothing but love poetry; another never read anything but the mar riages. The following is a true extract from my note book. 1 have not succeeded a whit better with the patrons of the other publications of which I am agent, as it is impossible to collect from those who are determined not to pay. I have said I have been away three months I have expended in that period two hundred and ten dollars travelling, and my entire commissions amount to eighty-two dol lars and forty-five cents. lam very wil ling to do my share towards the propa gation of news but more than this no rea sonable man could ask. This business don’t exactly suit me; I can't stand it. All kinds of abuse I havf to bear, too. Lwouldn’l mind it so much if they only cursed you and your paper, but they cures I lUx !°° * Swindler, rascal, villian, blood-sucker! Thesa are some of the names they think proper to bestow upon me. 1 tried figh ting for a while, and thrashed several of your patrons like blazes, but occasional ly I got licked like thunder myself, Om e 1 was put in jail for assault and battery, and only escaped by breaking out. Send me a receipt for the three dollars twelve and a half cents, and believe yours in despair, Aaron Sweatwell. Thought. —Though is a fountain from which flow all good and evil inten tions; a mental fluid, electrical in the force and rapidity of its movemets’ silently flow ing unseen within its own secret avenues; yet il is the controlling power of all anima ted matter, and the chief mainspring of all our action. ‘I Love to Steal.' —An amusing in cident occured in one of our down east church*, some years ago. The clergyman gave out on a pleasant Sabbath afternoon in July: ‘‘l love to steal awhile away, From every ’cumbering care, And spend the hour of setting day, In humble giateful prayer.” The regular chorister being absent, the duty devolved upon the guod old dea con lvi , who commenced, ‘I love to steal— ’ and then bagged down—and raising his voice to higher pitch, he sung, ‘I love to steal— ’ and as before, he concluded he had got the wrong pitch, and deploring that he had not his ’pitch-turner,’ he determined to succeed if he died in the attempt. By this time all the old ladies were tittering behind their tans, whilst the fares of tiie ,young’ ’uns were all in a broad grin. At length, after a desperate enugti he made a final demonstration and roared out, ‘I love to steal— 1 This effort was too much; every other but the godly and eccentric pnrsn was laughing, who arose, and with the utmost coolness said: Seeing our brother’s propensities, let us pray! It is needless to say that but few of that congregation heard the prayer. Professional pomposity is very well taken off in th* following anecdote, which we found in a late English paper: Shields, doctor, (looking learned and speaking slow:) ‘Well, mariner, which tooih do you want extracted l Is it a malor or an incisor? Jack (short and sharpe :) ‘lt is in the upper tier, in the larboard side. Bear a hand, you swab; for it is nipping my jaw like a bloody lobster.’ The queerest object in nature is a Spanish beggar, for these beggars beg on horseback; and it is an odd thing to see a man riding a up to a poor foot pas , senger and asking alms. A gentleman of Valparaiso, being accosted by one of these mounted beggars, replied, ‘why sir, you come to beg of me who have to go on foot while you ride on horseback!’ ‘Very true, sir,’ said the beggar, • and I have (he more reason (o beg, as 1 have to support my horse as *€ll as myself.’ PROSPECTUS 0F TH South-West Georgian.

This remedy is free from all mineral, or vege table poisons, and has been applied with safety and suc cess to Cancer of the tongue.

SICKLY AND UNHAPPY WIVES. Extract of a Letter from a Gentleman in Dayton, O. “Dayton, May 1, 1847. “Dr. A. M. MaDRICIAU— My Dear Sir: ‘The Married Woman'* Private Medical Companion,’ for which I enclosed one dollar to your address, came safely to hsnd. I would not have troubled you with these few lines, but that I am impelled by a sense of gratitude, for myself and wife, to give utterance - to our sincere and heartfelt emotions. “ My wife has been perceptibly sinking for some three years or more, in consequence of her great an guish and auffering some month# before and during confinement; every successive one more and more debilitated and proatrated her, putting her life in im minent danger, and which was, on the last occasion, despaired of 1 anpposed that this state of thing* was inevitable, and resigned myself to mpet the worst. At this time (now about two months) I heard your book highly spoken of. as containing some matters reaching my case. On its receipt and perusal, I can not express to yon the relief it afforded my distressed mind and the joy ita pages imparted to my wife, on learning that the great discovery of M. M. Deio meaux provided a remedy. It opened a prospect to me which I little conceived was possible. No pecn niary coaaideration can ever repay the obligations 1 am under to you for having been the meana of im parting to ua the matters contained in ‘ The Married Worn an'a Private Medical Companion.’ But for this, ere another year would have passed over my head, in all human probability my wife would hare been in her grave, and my children left molherlea*.’ Extract from a Letter. Competence and Health. 14 Lancaster, Pa , Oct 24, 1847. 44 My Dear Sir : I know you will have the kind ness to bear with me in encroaching upon your time, while I acknowledge (in behalf of myself’and wife) the obligations we feel ouraelvea under to you in hav ing made known certain mattera, contained in yonr moat invaluable 4 Married Woman’s Private Medical Companion.’ It has been worth ita weight in gold to me. If I express myself rather warmly, yen will eee that I can not do so too warmly, when I inform Jyou 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 Lit as one of the most fortunate events of v life. I had been married some ten years, and was the father of .wen children. I was long struggling unceasingly, to the end that I might gain a moderate com|>etencv, bnt the resalts of my utmost exertions at the end left me abont where I was at the beginning of each year; and that only, with the most stinted economy,'suffi cing with barely the necessaries of life. Finally, this constant effort was beginning to have its effect upon my health: 1 felt less cspnble to endure its comma ance, while I felt the necessity of perseverance. “ This constant, unceasing struggle on my part was imperative, in consequence of the proatrated condi tion of my wife (with occasional intermission) for six years, tnoch of the 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 1 was ignorant. Oh! what would I have given had I the six years to live over again ! What would my wife have given to have been spared the long daya and still longer nights prostrate on a bed of sicknera!—all of which would have been •voided, bad I then seen a copy of ‘ The Marrixb Woman’s Privat* Medical Companion.'” From a Physician.

How many suffer from prolapsus uteri (falling of the womb), or from fluor-albus (weak ness, debility, Ac., Ac)! How many are in constant agony for inauy months preceding confinement! How many have difficult if not dangerous deliveries, and whose lives are jeoparded daring such time, will find in its psgei the meana of prevention, amelioration, and relief! Extract from a Letter.
