What it is and what it accomplishes in the, way - of furnishing, the people With a go r od and reliable popular newspaper are things that are.visible to the public every day ;. and we usually leave them to tell their own story. There are, occasions, how ever, when it is not only excusable, but proper, for a journal like this to speak of its own success: We therefore lay be fore the public, in as brief a.form ns poS sible, afew items of 'its progress during the last-year. rt is, well• knol6 that the daily edition of the Public Ledger has always been vastly in advance of that of any other .Philadelphia newspaper. Starting with this point, we may say there has been2;Ma d.a . y in the last twenty five months when there has not: been a considerable increase"to that, edition. During the year - 1866 the aggregate in- crease in the edition was . 5256 copies. Considering the very heavy circulation to which this was added, that addition was very large, for the paper was already taken in about 'five `out of 'every six dwellings in the city of Philadelphia. But large' as the increase was during the year 1866, that. increase promises to be multiplied four or --five fold during the year that we have just entered ; for the carriers' lists from the Ist of JanUary to ithe 4th of February, 1867; already show .an -increase , of 1935 copies,' 'covering -a period of only thirty secular days. This shows - a progress at the rate of nearly sixty-five a day, and about.2o,oo a year. There is no room for doubt that the daily circulation of the Public Ledger now is greater than that of any other daily news paper in the United States; with but one exception, and at the present rate , of progress, it is doubtful whether we will have even that exception for any censid erablo period., , The focegoing are - the 'sort of facts that tell with the advertising and it is, therefore; not suurising that the last - year's 'receipts sum' up in such fig ures as those contained in the following exhibit froni the official records o€ the Interpol It.,evenue office Hirst-quarter, .18( 6, Second do: do 'Third• do. do.

A Sire Preventative of 01301_,MR.A. . HIS WONDERFUL REIIIEDV was discovered and introduced about twenty years ago by Dr. S. uheotiqns, an eminent Egyptian physician. '.tie hat long seen and feh the want of some reme dy which would strike at the root. of diticasc, and so prevent much of the suffering which the human thmily was then compelled to endure. - The great question was presented to his mind every day in vivid colors as he moved among the sick and dying, and observed the inefficiency of nearly all the remedies then in use. Thus he was lead to think and experiment; and after ten years of study and labor, he presented to his fellow-man the wonderful Zingari Bitters:- The effect of thiaPrOP. oration in the prevention and cure of disease, was so marvellous -and astonishing,- that the most flat tering marks of royal favor were , bestowed upon him who discovered it. His name was placed upon the Roll of Nobles, and a gold medal with the fol lowing inscription—Dr, Cheopsus, the Public. factor—was presented to hint by elle Viceroy. The preparation has been used in seveitil epidem ics of eliolm a, both as a preventive and curative measure, and with such groat success, that it has been introduced into. nearly all the general hespiltols of the old world. - The olu saving that an ounce-of prevention is worth a pound of cure, applies with marvelous force to-cholera, and therefore any remedy that will pro tect us rigninst this terrible disease should be freely and persistently used. All pathologists now agree that the elidlera poison acts on the excretory organs, and keeps them in working order, must-prevent a,suflicienv accumulti-- tion of the poison to exert its terrible effects on the organism. This -is true not only of cholera, but of nearly all other maladies, especially the different forms'offever. - • „ • 'The Great Zi ngari Hitters is just such a-remedy as the abave conditions require.

When Mishler's Bitters we - re first intro duced to the public the propriotor did not feel justified in. reconunending it as a spe- Chic for Cholerh,. During the fall of 1865, Dr. Mishler received the following note from Jacob L. Baker, Esq., of Lancaster Pa., a member of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy. Mr. Baker had a great deal of experience in the treatment of Cholera is a druggist of sixteen years standinc,WaS Hos pital Steward in the - Jefferson Hospital , Philadelphia, for three years,.and is withal a gentleman of undoubted integrity and one in whose statement the most implicit confidence can be placed : • - Lancaster, November 3d, 1865. Dr. Mishler—Dear Sin—Knowing - that the Cholera with its dreadful ravages is now upon our land, and knowing that no medi cine now in our country possesses such a caloric influence "which is the vital reme dy "for all diseases of this kind," . as the Bitters:you now making I request you to prepare such a quantity of your bitter as would snit all demands, as I assure you they will be an invaluable remedy, and will be hailed as a blessing by all who will use it. 570,198,37 Yours respectfully. JACOB L. BAKER. Being thus urged, and having Euticed the Bitters were constantly curing the most violent cases of Diarrhoea, Cholera Morbus and kindred complaints,Dr. Mishler at last offered his compounds as a cure for Cholera The result has exceeded his Most sanguine expectations and fully justifies all that Mr. Baker says in his note. It certainly proves that Mr. - Baker's practical knowledge of madicine far exceeds that of most doctors who too often dose their patients with de leterious drugs on some absurd theory.— For the purpose of showing that A.lishler's Herb Bitters will cure Cholera we give below a few facts. All intelligent persons who have investi gated the origin of cholera, agree that it is caused by poison introduced and generated into the system by impure water, damp ness, filth and over-crowded rooms with deficient ventilation. This is proved by the fact that cholera always rages worse on board of ships where all of the above causes are found more or less, combined. To cure cholera, and also tb prevent it,it is necessary to neutralize this position, and that Mishler's Bitters will do this is proven by the following : The steamship Virginia , arrived at the Port of New York: about the middle of April with- cholera a board a number of the passengers having died during the voyage with this eoroplaint. Amen -r the passen ers were a Ihmily named Schmith, from Baden ' Germany. This family was at tacked with cholera. Fortunatelyfor them they had friends living in this city I .an caster. Pa.,) who knew the virtues ofiNlish ler's Bitters and who procured a bottle and sent it to the Schmith family. When this package arrived at Quarantine,the doctors examine& it and confiscated the contents. Another bottle was procured and packed i» a more secure manner: it safely-reached the Schmiths. On its arrival aboard the Vir ginia, Henry Schmith and Christ. &un ith were both laboring- under choleric symp toms: Mrs. Marcia Schmith, wife el the former was very bad, not expected to re cover, and a son had died of the dread com plaint and had been buried theday previ ous. It was in this plight a bottle of Mish lelqs Bitters, sent forth like en Angel of Mercy found the poor Sehmith Henry Schmith was the first to try it, and so instantaneous was the relief he experi enced that he gave itto his wi re and brother both of whom it at once relieved. They used the entire contents of the bottle and all three were so much relieved that the Physicians permitted them to leave the Virginia,after being confined at quarantine aboard that scourge ship forty-two says.— The Schmiths proceeded to their relatives in Lancaster, and at an early opportunity called on Dr. Mishler to express their grati tilde for the timely relief they had found in his Bitters. Arr. Henry Schinith stated that all file compounds the doctors had given him did no good, but that one glass of Mishler's Bitters made hint feel like a new man, warming his whole system, giving him a healthful heat and causing him to perspire freely. His statement was substantially was substantially as given aberve. and he further said that if the doc tors had not kept the first bottle from reaching him, his son would yet hive been Mrs. Schmith was still weak from the effect of cholera, but the continued use of the Bitters were most surely restoring her accustomed vigor. It is not to be expected that regular M. Ps. will admit that any remedy not to be found in the Dispensatory will cure Chol era or any other complaint, but candor compels Dr. D. H. Bissell of the Cholera Hospital ship " Falcon" to admit that he believes Mishler's Bitters to be a " •yery good Tonic." In reply as to a case of Bit ters that was sent to him by a well known gentleman of Lancaster, he writes as fol lows : ._ Hospital Ship Falcon, Quarantin, New York o l une ith, ISM. I . George S. Rowbotham, Esq.— Dear Sir Yours of the 23d, inst. is to hand. In re ply, I beg leave to say, that I received the case of Bitters you sent me for trial &c., that-I gave them to the convalescents in Hospital. I believe them to be a very good tonic Bitters, well adapted to all cases requiring Tonic remedies. D. 11. BISSELL, Physician, Hospital Ship "Falcon." -- • This letter from Dr. Bisselljust after the reception of the Bitters, and before he had time and opportunity to thoroughly test their wonderful medicinal properties is considered an important endorsement, as that gentleman to-clay occupies the most important position of any physician in America. The passengers and crews o emigrant and merchant vessels that arrive in the Port of New York from foreign coun tries,are subject to his inspection and con trol, and the great experience he has had in the management of that dreadful dis ease, Cholera, gives an endorsement by him an unusual importance. This letter together with the statement of the Schmith family—who while in the Steamer Vir ginia, were under Dr. Bissell's control, shows what the Bitters have done and can do. Amither case of Cholera cured by Mish ler,s Herb Bitters is that of Mr.- Pearsol of York county, who,after suffering severely from all the symptons of Cholera, finally became collapsed and while in this state, (the doctors stating that be wat beyond re lief) a friend administered freely,Mishler's Bitters. The effect was instantaneous ; heat was generated in the body, perspira4 i tion was induced and after using one bot tle Mr. Pearsol was entirely restored. Misbler's Bitter S -cutes Cholera by coun- - teractifig the poison which is the cause of the disease. Poison in-the system,whether generated by bad air, filth, &c., as in Cholera, or introduced by the bite of a venomous snake or mad dog will be ex pelled and' all bad symptons allayed by the liSe of Michler's Herb Bitters. The ab,ove proves this to be the fact in Cholera and the certificate of Mr.Rhinehart proves that Mishler's Billers will cure. the bite of a-poisonous snake: Lancaster,. July 4th, 1865. Mr. B. Mishler—Sir:—Abont eight weeks since rwas bitten in -the left hand by a snake, but" at the time did not know of what species. it was.„lmmediately after the bite my hand swelled 'tti a very large size,-and the poison appeared to be work ing up my,arm. I suffered_ great pain in my band and•arm; I had to.quit work and was afraid I would be compelled to have my hand amputated. I came to you; and by your advice washed my hand and_ arm with your Herb Bitters at the same time taking it inwardly. In eleven days I was able to go to -work again. The poison was -all drawn out and Mishler's Herb Bitters was the only inealcine or application that I made use of. Mr. Christian Burns, a near neighbor of rnine;'went out a' day or two after to the place where Iwas bitten, and kilted whata believe was the, same snake that bit me as ho caught within live yards of the spot where I 'was bitten. - It proved to be what-is - called a copper snake; at any rate, whether it was the same one that bit me or not:—one thing is certain— that your Bitters - cured thehite•of a snake in my case for whicli Ishall ever-be. Umiak fal, as I believe it was the means of saving my hand. --. r I sb ll be- pleased to - perscirnilly 'satisfy any'one Of the•trutb of the above. Yours. JACOB RLNEHA.IIT. Low Street, Lancaster.
