Jonas Whlicemb’s Remedy for Asthma.
» [Letter from a Ltwjer in Newburyport, Mass ]
. Newbobyport, Fobruary''26.3Bs6.
Jo?srn Bdbnett, Eeq.—Daar Sir: It is now nearly
twelve' months since I received the first bottle of your
valuable medicine for the care of the Asthma. .'
For thirteen years I suffered with the Asthma, and
during that time there were but few months in which I
did nnt suffer with a paroxysm that entirely prostrated*
me'for two or three days, and sometimes longer.
I will say, that from the time I took the first dose of
your “ Romedy” to the present hour, I bare not had a
bad attack, and now my system Is so free from it, that
the most active, exercise and exposuro seldom has any
oiher effect than .to slightly restrict the lungs Your
medicine soon dispels that sensation, and I can safely
cLim a goneral release from the tormentor. Please
accept piy gratitude for the great hlesalng, and believe
mo that I shall endeavor to introduce the Romedy
Whenever opportunity occurs. .With groat respect, your
obedient servant, J. H. BBAGBON.

Gentlbmbn : Your communication of the 4th Inst.,
to the-Beard of Direct*rs of the Mercantile Library
Company, referring to statements in circulation among
the members, reflecting upon the Board, is received,
and the undersigned—a committee appointed for the
purpose suggested therein—beg leave to reply;
That while the Board were cognlzantof, and regretted
the existence of taose ropottt, as they originated, and
were publicly asserted only through anonymous com.
rnunicatlonsin tho newspapers, and had never been ofll»
cially brought to their notice, they had not folt called
upon to make any formal explanation.
As far os they can learn, the charges against thorn as
sume the following thapp, bated chiefly on the dUcon
tinuance of the Westminster, fieview:, That an attempt
is being made to give .a sectarian character to the IN
brary, not contemplated by its founders, by withdraw,
ing certain books already on the shelves, and purohas.
log largely of those having particular tendencies in a
religious point cf view; and that the discontinuance of
the subscription to the Westminster Jieitew was sn
arbitrary and uncalled for exorcise of power on the part
of the Board
'While the present Board and their predecessors hare
always considered that no lib ary could be. complete
without come Attention to the religious department of
literature, and have purchased, from time to time,
woi k<t of this description, they have felt tbat the main
objects of thej institution was not to furnish religious
literttare to its readers. They have, therefore, con
fined their selectlonsto works likely to prove of general
interest! avoiding, as far as possible, any that might
be offensive on account of their sectarian character, or
extreme views. Tho number has been vory limited,
considering the large supply of such publications con
stantly offering, and the .demand for thorn'has been
folly ’ proportioned to that for ether brnneh-s of the'
library Thete have been donations of works of this
description from valued friends, which may have misled
some of our mombors as to tne actual extent of the
purchases
As far as the Board can learn, no boohs have been
withdrawn from the shelves, and a reference to the
catalogue would have 'shown the originators of the
statements that the hooka particularized as withdrawn,
have baen recorded there, and in constant use,during'
rthe~term of office of the present Board ahd present Li
brarian,
■ With regard to the Westminster Review, which hSR
been the occasion of most of the assaults on the Beard,
the objection was, not that it attacked any particular
form of religious belief held by members of the Board,
but tbat, under a'beading obviously intended to mis
lead, It attacked All formß of belief, whether Catholic
or Protestant, resting on tho Bible as a foundation, and
as such could only ho offensive or dangerous to by far
tho largest portion of ourread»rs.
While the Board disclaim all desire to make our li
brary a religious one, they certainly will notallow it
to be made a means of diesemicat’ng infidel literature,
and although they fully reaugaisad the great ability
displayed in this Ifsetcfo, and regretted the necessity
thus forced opon thvm, they considered this article aa
an avowal of the principles that wore to govern it for
the future, and discontinued their,subscription.
Whatever their opponents may urge against the pro
priety of (zeroising any judgment in the selection of
the books, and which, from the tenor of their arguments,
they would seem to deny altogether, the present Board,
as long a 4 they are hohored with tho trust, will consider
themselves responsible for the general character of their
purchases, and will exercise their discretion to the best
of their anility.
Many of our readers, ns is well known, are young and
Inexperienced, and are, -therefore, peculiarly exposed
to Insidious attacks on the basis of their religious be
lief. and the Board feel that they would hate been false
to their duty to the stockholders and the parents of the
young using the library, if they had hesitated to aot In
this matter.
Thanking you frr the kind interest and confidence
you hare displayed, we are, gentlemen, la behalf of the
Board, your obedient servants,

\V,e particularlysolicit the attention of
IK-3 Railroad officers to tbe advertisement headed
tl Railroad Dangers.” It Is plain, .direct, forcible, and
honest, and ' should arrest the thought of all Railroad
officials. The improvement there noted has been
thoroughly tried; some hundreds of the machines are
in ÜBe in *ll the cars of some of our best managed Hoes ;
and it is the opinion of all -who have examined it that
it wiU be universally used. It is offered on the most
favorable tenna
RAILROAD DANGERS.—For the last twenty years,
or perhaps frince tbe system of Railroads has been es
tablished ft this country, there hate, ihailprobability,
been losses by oc Went to the extent of twenty millions
of collars. These have boon clear, absolute losses to
thecomrauqijy—as much so as property destroyed by
fire or suokln the ocean.' But these disasters have been’
of a peculiar character, and, in the main, notthosoof
fire or flood; they have arisen from the ordinar* con
ditlonsof arailroad train in progress: they have been
caused by-tho inherent momentum that is a necessary
property of matter In motion. ‘
A Ballroaa.Tralo is exposed to peculiar danger from
tbU cause. Its traok of iron and level grade axe bath
.made for the purpose of allowing Its free progress, and
tbe very esse aud freedom ofmotlon aggravate the danger
of momentum.

Again, a-.Rftjlrcftd is intesded as a means of rapid,
tran-lt for persotg and property, and the component
parts of a loooraotive and ears for travel on rails rapidly,
are made necessarily heavy and strong—if otherwise,
they would soon shake to piece#. It follows, then, that
wqiuhtj ease Of motion freedom from obstruction, and
rapid transit, ell conduce powerfully to create momen
turn From accurate calculations it is foetid that the
effective motttatum of a train of six oars and au'eoglne
is equal to aforoe of 700 tons. The truth of this state
ment iS painfully self-evident at a sudden cot’isioa or
obstruction. *fhis FEARFUL DANGER WHICH IB
BVER'PBEBBNT to a train is only partially recognised
by Railroad officials’.' It is, howovor, understood to
(oiiio extent, and each car is provided with brakes, or
blocks; arranged- to press agaicst the wheels by the
action of the brakemao. This plan works very well for
the usual stoppages of a'train, when sufficient notice is
given to thd orakeman by the engineer; but for those
cases of danger Which have arisen,-and-will arise, in
spite of the sgost rigid scrutiny, it is notoriously ineffi
cient, as ail experience proves. .
- It is of no use for an officer to say that nothing can
happen to opr ” train There is not a moment that
a train is id motion but that It is exposed to dangers
which 0 perfect control would prevent, and there should
net be an instant of time in which a train is running,
but tbat the flcUlties should be at band for an instant,
simultaneous’pad powerful application of the retarding
appliances of every car.
It is not the custom on many roads to employ more
than one br&kemin to two or three cars, and on some
not more than one to four or flvo cars The laws of
some States require a brakemaa to each two cars Wo
bold that there should be oue to every car, and that a
mechanical brakemaa is vastly more reliable than one
of flesh and blbol.
During the last few years an invention has been made
and perfected by the undersigned, the object of which
is to place all the braking appliances of a train in readi
ness fop prompt and united action. The'closest atten
tion that we nave been able to bring to bear on this sub
ject, and an analysis of the various accidents that have
occurred,'lead moat conclusively to this result, via:
that the me&fts should always be at hand throughout the
train to arresfthemomentuul at every point where it
exists \'2 Tftyt the"Bfagine'man, from his station, gene
rally sees the obstruction or danger first, consequently
he should be enabled’, of his own volitfon. to apply in
an Instant every brake; 3, The liability io accidents
from bieabirg of wheels, axles, rails, chairs, accidental
separatiots, >nd defections at various points on the
train render'it of the first importance that every bar
should have its own retarding appliances perfectly inde
pendent in action of any other. Hundreds of contri
vances have been made in the way of continuous brakes,
none of wbioh have over attained a perfect success—tbe
necessary complicity of adjustment, and tbetotal failure
of such a contrivance, often at the very moment when
most needed, are insuperable obstacles to the success of
puch a device as a means of guarding against, and miti
gating all the accidents to which a train is expos d The
invention referred to consists in the attachment of a re
served power to the. brakes of each car, placing them
all in readiness for united aotion, either from the en
gine or any point on the train. A description of the
meohanism Is unnecessary at this place; suffice it to
say, it is extreme simple, and perfectly efflolent, and
full and detailed engravings and description may be
found in ourciroulars, to be had on application at onr
office. , > . '
There is another, and,perhaps the strongest,, point In
favor of the adoption of this precaution-namely, its
Si eat cheapness. For instance, take a road owning, sty,
fly carsthe first coat, at our present price, would be
$6,250; the interest on this a t omit at 7 (or say 9 per
cent, whloh is nearer tho rate that railroad companies
6 ay for ihe us* of money) la $562 per year. A ootnpany
iviog this attachment to their cars would .save the
wages of at least three brakemtm, Which would be, say,
$9OO a year; while the simple insurance against acci
dent to life and property which such a precaution would
give would be worth at least half the cost of the im
provement. We submit that we make out a strong case
in favor of (he adoption of such a security. And now,
then, in ooiiclusion, we odd tbat some hundreds of these
Machines are in use in the United States, and they are
on the whole passenger stock of all the following roads,
to any or allot tho officers of whioh we refer all parties
interested. In place of certificates, of Which we have
plenty: Hudson River, Cleveland and Toledo, Terre
Haute and Richmond, Old Colony and Fall River, Jllcbi
chigan Central, Panama, &o. Further than this j We
will fdrnish the machines for ALL TiiE PASSENGER
And baggage cabs of any road, and give
EACH COMPANY FOB ITSELF THE OPPOhTU
NITY TO TEST ITS VALUE, FREE OF CHARGE.
WE WILL GIVE FOUR MONTHS’ TRIAL BBfOBE
SETTLEMENT, AND EACH COMPANY BHALL BE
ITS OWN JUDGE OF ITS VALUE. Can WE do more
than this ?- And does not every officer assume a FEAR
FUL RESPONSIBILITY who neglects for a moment
suoh an offer? We do not make this offer as mere mean
ingless talk, but WE MEAN IT, JUST EXACTLY AS
IT IB EXPRESSED. This device will give an amount
of security to a train that Is impossible wi boat it; and
no company heed say “We know nothing abont it, 11 or
“It Is an-experiment of doubtful utility,” or, “it is
untried,” &c, Wi* do not ask you to incur expense or
bay patent rights; we offer you merchandise of tried,
perfected, aud warranted value. We rhall send a copy
of this advertisement tb the office of every Company in
the’ Union, and solicit oh their part a recognition of the
merits of this improvement, and the extraordinary
low And favorable terms on Which it is at present
offered.
The universal, use Of this device, however niuoh it
may benefit us, Will promote the railroad interost, and
the public good generally* hundredfold more.

COMBINED
This valuable invention consists iu the arrangement
and combination of the shaft* of a carriage operating
on joint* that, when defied together, form the pole, so
that either one or two horses can be instantly att&oued
to a earring*, and with more despatch, salety, and se
curity than by the usual znedo.
It has the greatont advantage for convenience, there
being no bolts and nuts to be unsorewed, which are so
tedious and inconvenient when the ordinary shafts or
pole have to be removed or changed in muddy or frosty
weather.
Itia the most perfect arrangement for a physician’s
carriage, so that he may attach ono or two horses with
despatch.
Livery-stable keepers will And it to be most useful
and profitable to their daily business; and the carriage
maker will And that this improvement will not only add
to the neatness and beauty of his carriages, but lacrosse
his sales.
The Patentee Is now in this oity, and will remain
one week at the UNION HOTEL, ARCH Street, be
tween Third and Fourth, and is deuirous of selling
State, County. and Shop Rights.
Portions wishing to see and examino this useful in
vention, by calling on the Patentee, or at the celebrated
Oarrlngo Depository of George W. Watson, CHEST

The undersigned having been practically engaged for
a number of years In different capacities of the Insu
rance business—for several years In adjusting losses
exclusively for the Insurance Companies—now offers his
services to those sustaining Lo?s or Damage by Fire to
property insured, iu making out their proofo of such
loss or damage in full compliance with the intricate and
cunning conditions of Policies of Insurance, in such a
manner as to obviate plea or excuse for reduction or
litigation by companies so inclined, or others'.
He is assisted by the best legal counsel lu Philadel
phia, and will give particular attention to the Collec
tion of Claims against Insurance Companies.
It is known by many who have sustained 1o«s by FiTe
to property insured, and it has also been the experience
of the undersigned, that policies are frequently declared
partially or entirely void at a certain time after a fire
occurs, In consequence of carelessness or mismanage
ment In effecting the insurance, or for some other cause,
which, although an important fact,is scarcely ever dis
covered or thought of, until it is too late. In order to
avoid such disastrous occurrences, the undersigned
will also effect Insurance iu auy Companies desired,
and examine policies effected by others (in most cases)
free of extra charge.
Parties sustaining lost or damage by fire, as above,
will find it to their interest to -consult the undersigned
as soon aftor the fire as possible.

• OARB TO IBS PUBEIO:
It has been lately the costom of Operatic Managers,
in first presenting to the public an artist who monopo
lize, for the time being, the world’s attention, to il-'
lade to the causes of each a widely-spread reputation,
They resort to thlc method,' not from the illegitimate
motive of'still fuTther ;excitlEg-pqbiio curiosity! hnt
rather, from fear that the'expectations of the audience
might be raised to .a pitch to which, it would be impos
sible for ary artist to attdtnThis may'serve as an ex-'
case • fpr reproducing extracts; partially from musical
papers, in which M’ile. Piccolomlni is judged from a'
musical point, and partly from suoh journals, which, as’
the mirrors of public opinion,.confine themselves to
portraying the effects she produced on he? immense an-,
diences; * - •
[Extract from N. P. Willis'S “Idlewild” letter ]
*• To one’s previously formed idea cf what a * ffo--
*i<tta' might possibly look like 1 surrounded,’ as the
bcok says, • by a circle of gay and thoughtless beingA
like herself,’ the fair creature who stepped forward at
the close of the • overture had really very little resem
hlanoe. It was even droll to see each undisguised in
nocence pretending to-talk and walk as wiokeoness
would or should under the circumstances-so utterly
umljasivd a performance of the saint playing the sin
ner in faot, that it was more than ever a wonder how
the exact opposite, the sinner pl&ytog the saint.-had
recently been done in New York so successfully. Of
sohoo girl purity, utterly nnbreathed upon, la,Violet
ta* dimpled face, m she same upon the stage, was the
completest type. Her exquisite grace and elegance
in fact, seemed to he of that exceedingly rare class
that is unconscious and acrid- ntol. The ‘torn Prin
cess’ was evidently in herblood, and she could not help
herself, poor tbkg. . * 1
■ “With this blemish aside', theactlng, (or which the
daily newspapers are giving detailed and able criti
cisms) was truly admirable.' I will onlymenticn one
point of her professional, skill .with which! was par-'
tlonlarJy struck—the full and captliAting equlvsieni
which she gave, with a toss of her pretty fingerA for
every note ehe.deßpaired of reaching. ‘ Her.voice falls
short of here end there a climax ( bat she is perfectly'
aware of it, and simply, so delights the ;eye,. at that
particular moment, with,the bewitching.grace and co
quetry of gstture,,that .the expeqtont ear forgets to be
disappointed] The most strenuous , { bravo.' in fact/is
likeliest to be heard from the audience'at the point ar
tlstleally the faultiest * 1 ' SSB
“ But how can I describe what is Pjccolotflini’s great
peculiarity? Uerr/iouiA.whllp she,slogs, plays the
most (fetietbus pantomime possible to conceive! The
eye of thd spectator is so pelted ,with klsrietf. exquisitely
represented in a sort of afro relievo t that it is absolutely
bewildering. The natural aotion of the lips seems
positively that, and nothing else—Eisssß, caught and
nut into harness, and made \o do duty like sung words .
It is most d'fficult to realize, as one looks and listens
when she leans over the footlights—with anything of
a habit of kisses “seen done,” that is to say—
that the rest of the audience has not mysteriously dis
appeared, leaving the matter entirely between one’s seif
and her!' Add then the absolutely innocent confiding-'
ness of the whole play,' and pout of those pulpy, little,
rad lips—looking so as If they implioltly trusted aha
believed in you, while they tried to r4aohyou—makes
itstill more absolutely personal and private. -
“ I do not think there ever'was before snob an ac
tress on the stag C—one who was unequivocally stomped
with the innocence of a child, while She left upon every
mysterious'memory of a ,kUs I- As the baf

Engraved on her crest;’
though I doubt n6t that the ( helmet and shield ’ of the
cblralric Pioeolominia have a blazon much more war-
like, won by their swords In those Middle Ages when
they were so famous.”
(Correspondence of the Providence Journal.]
The little Princess tripped upon the stage, looking
like a child of fourteen years, in a short petticoat,
looped up with oherry colored ribbons, which showed
to great advantage her pretty childlike feet and ankles.
In five minutes the eyes and hearts of “four thousand
spectators’.’ were irrevocably captivated. “.Did she
pelt them with her ftfsses, as she did the poet of Idle
wild?”' Not-oppressively. “ Was she a great artist ?”
I cannot tell. Sbewas charming in a way so exclu
sively her own. that it would be quite.unavailing to
talk about it/ Bhe was so young, so innocent,so bloom
ing, so confidingly frank and coquettish, andpiquant,
so winning, so arch, so graceful, that her presence was
like a beam of moroiDg light, or A breath of morning
air. My memoi y of her, should, I see her a thousand
times, will be always “ A Matinee." jall-2t..

On SATURDAY, First' and only Night of
LB KO£ZB DI FIGARO.
OARD TO THE PUBLIC J
Mr. Ullm&n, pursuing the polloy of bis management,
which is in favor of great works by great composers,
bos the henor to announce that he will, on Saturday,
produce Modart’s Celebrated opera of “ The Marriage or
Figaro.” For many years this famous production has
been the choice bait of operatle management. Every
successive empressarlo has promised to give it, and as
constantly failed to do so As in the ease of “The
Huguenot),” it was reserved to h ! m to. bring out the
work for the first time in America- - t .
THE NOZZB DI FIGARO
is a curiosity in musical literature, in addition to being,
one of the finest productions of its celebrated master.
Popular tradition says that it was written at the insti
gallon of a wager, and to prove that .an opera eonld be
made to susceed without a tenor part in it - Mozart
fe’t that nothing but the purestatreama of melody,and
the loveliest creations of fapoy, could reconcile the
public, could secure the sucoeaa which was essential to
the issue of the wager. Certain it is that on the three
; characters of Susanna, the Count, and Figaro, he has
, expended all the infinite pathos, playfulness, and geni
ality of hie nature. - 1 ‘ '
The “Nozze” was preceded by “ Idomenee," and
was followed by “Don Giovanni.” Thus connected
in the golden chain of the composer’s chief works 1
it has long maintained its European celebrity; hut
for • accidental reasons it has never been produced
here. Foremost among these may.be mentioned the
faot that Bince the drfys of Madame Sontog there
has bsen no art<st in th : s country capable.,of in
terpreting the r jlq of Bus anna;- 1 It is fortunately
in Mr. Ullman’a power to present the work with
a cast which cannot be surpassed. He refers con
fidently to the Bosanna of M’lle.Piccolomlni as one
of her greatest impersonations, exceeding in the joyous
detail of girlish emotion her Zerlloa, in “Don'Gio
vanni,” and to the Vlgaroot Carl Formes, wh!c>, is
artistic conception, ranks as high as any role in which
.tbe great basso has yet appeared. M’Ue Ghioni will
make her debut as the Countess, and Signor Florenza as
the' Count. These are the principal characters on.
which tbe saccess of this operadepends, aid it is hoped
the public will acknowledge that they could not be in bet
ter hands. . jall*2t
