Nkw Yorc, Juno 24, 18(30.
Among all the clever and renowned Ncw-Yorklsnis
Whom I hare mentioned, have I ever said anything
In relation to the New York correspondent of the
Philadelphia Sunday Ditpatch t Years bcrore I saw
that gentleman, I woralilpped him at a distance. In
common with thousand of others, his letters were
what I principally cared to read in the co'.nmns of
that extremely well-regulatod Sunday sheet. All
New fork appeared to run through his lingers' ends,
lie had been aoaked in Gotham and perspired it
spicily In printer's ink. His hebdomadal rtwrnc of
the events of the week wcro highly seasoned with
literary allspice. Guilt and gossip, crime and common-sense,
people an politics alike became read
able, when . tlio events touched upon were neck
laced together by his string of puns and witti
cisms. The real name of the gentleman who corresponds
with the Philadelphia Sunday Dinpatrh under the
name of "Knickerbocker" ought to be known 10 all
the readers of that paper, for It has lccn published
therein at least once in connection with his twm de
!um, coupled with the explanation that no other
writer ever officiated for it la that capacity. Since,
however, he deems it expedient to disavow, or at
least ignore, "any connection with those letters," I
will not stop behind tho inojnito ho chooses to
clothe himself with. His letters are precisely what
such letters should be. They brim with facts dressed
fancifully. How he obtains these facts, what are
his mysterious sources of information, and how it
happens that he always has so much to say that is
excellent in its way, I will not stop here to very
minutely inquire. Mr. Barnum, in his autobiography,
remarks that once upon a time a stranger, stepping
up to the ticket oillcc of his museum, threw down
the price of admission, and asked whether that was
P. T. Itarnura 7 Mr. Barnuin, who was then acting
as his own treasurer, responded in the aiUrmative.
'All right, then," said the man; "I have had the
worth of my money; I have Been Bar
num;" and, turning on his heel, walked
off, apparently more than satisfied. I can easily
imagine something like this occurring to "Knicker
bocker." People, after seeing him, would go back
to reading his letters again with greater gusto, say
ing, with an air of self-complacency, "I have soon
Knickerbocker.' I have seen the man that does the
New York correspondence of the Philadelphia Din
patch." Colonel Knickerbocker's personal appear
ance is genial and prepossessing. Ills eyes are full or
genial warmth, and his complexion has tho fiorld
ness and his person the moderate rotundity of per
fect health, lie Is one of those men that never grow
old. Ills health is indeed well-nigh perfect, and the
buoyancy of his spirits has made life almost one long
summer to him. He does enough work to fatigue
many a younger man, and Is more youthful at his
present age than most literary men are at half of it.
He has several Idiosyncrasies, but they are pleasant
and harmless ones. He is of an extremely social
nature, and loves music, books, and flowers.
When he is not writing, he Is working In his
garden in one of the pleasantest suburbs of New
York or playing upon his piano. Without making
any pretensions to being a poet or musician, he com
poses better poetry anil mnsic than four-llfths of
those ladles and gentlemen do who are forever set
ting up claims that way. He Is an exceedingly well
educated I might almost say a learned man, hav
ing the modern languages at his tongue's end, and
with no obscure reminiscences of tho ancient
tongues. A great deal of his work is done while less
prudent and less hardy people are still in bed. t Per
haps the reason his wit remains so bright, after a
vast amount of literary work, may be found in the
. fact that he has always been an early riser. Summer
apes him up at 4, winter at 5, and frequently all his
pen-work for the day Is executed by 10 o'clock in the
morning. I am afraid to say how many years he has
been writing for the Dispatch as long, pro
bably, as he has been a resident in New
York, and that has been for at least
fifteen years. Formerly he was as much a Philadel
phia tm as he la now a New York one. Years ago
the "livest" newspaper in the Quaker City was under
the guidance of the Knickerbocker" of to-day. His
aim was to create dally legitimate sensations, and
he succeeded to an alnioBt Illimitable extent. He
created great havoc, more particularly amongst the
theatrical folk, and for a long time his authorship
of those piquant criticisms remained unknown and
unsuspected. He was a keen judge of good acting,
an artistic detective of art. His dramatic criticisms
signalized an era in newspaper-theatric annals, and
may be said to have been the commencement or Im
partial and trenchant Judgment. Though a gene
rous liver, and a most boon companion. "Knicker
bocker" is as abstemious as an anchorite during his
hours of business and of writ lug. All the Inspiration
he ever needs is the early hours of the morning, pen,
Ink, and paper, and a Jug of cold water.
Consequently, all that flows from a
brain Inured to snch habits of health
is sure to have a good, hearty, vigorous tone about
It. In nothing that he writes is there a taint of mor
bidity. Hla experience of "life," both In the Old
World and the New, has brought him Into contact
with a vast number of curious people and Incidents.
His company is therefore always Interesting. His
reminiscences would make a volume as Interesting
as those of Vincent Nolle, Madame Pfelirer, or the
Countess or Landsfeldt. Interesting as his weekly
correspondence Is, it never devotes any or Its piquan
cies to the scandal of personalities or violated confi
dence. Whatever he publishes he has the right to
publish, never stepping behind a person's private
life and holding up to the gaze of the world certain
Household facts that should be secret He does not
share the failing of so many newspaper correspon
dents, viz., the desire to utter smart malignities.
-Old times" have great influence with" him. He
cannot forget past relations of kindness with any
one ; and I, for one, hope he may go on writing for
the DUpatch for the next hundred years.

WIDE-SPREAD VSEFULNESS. The relier or the
wants or the deserving poor, and especially of
widows and orphaus, whose natural provider has
been lost to them, is a su jject which has been forced
upon the attention of communities and individuals
through all history, and many plans of systematic
relief have been discussed Great good has been
done by the aid thus given to those unable to help
themselves ; but, after all, charity Is not the best
way in which such help can le secured. To accept
of alms Involves, In some degree, a loss of self
reBpect and Independence. What Is wanted Is some
system by which, at small gradual cost, every
laboring man may make sure of leaving to his family,
when death takes him away, a sumsutlicient to keep
the wolf from the door. Such a rlan is offered to
the public in the advertisement of the National Life
Insurance Company in another column. The general
features or the management or this company are
there noted, and the local agents will cheerfully
give any further information as to the peculiar
advantages oilered. The "National Life" was char
tered by Congress less than one year ago ; It began
business In August last, having then to establish
its entire system of agencies, and to distribute Infor
mation among the people as to us cuararusr ami
Mi.iii nf these things have been done;
the entire country and the Canadian Dominion are
now covered by its general and sulMigeiicies, and

comfort of the families of the Insured. Every family

Low cash rates, and a plain business contract of

This affair came off last evening at the Arch Street
Theatre, and in spite of the lateness of the seaM
and tho heat of the weather, It was a brilliant suc
cess In every particular. The house was sacked
with an enthusiastic audience, and the performer
who had volunteered for the occasion exerted them
selves to make the entertainment pass off In fl rat-rate
style. Miss Susan Gal ton, who made her first ap
pearance on the stage of the Arch, was warmly as
plauded, and she sang and acted In her best manner.
Mr. Craig created much amusement by Ms funny
Imitations, and the other artists acted with spirit
This aflalr was a compliment of the highest order

OYSPEPHlAJ DYMPKPftlAl
I, Elizabeth Branson, of Drandjwine, Dela
ware, fonnorl j of Old Choftcr, Delaware countr,
Pa., do certify that for one year and a half I
hare Buffered everything but death from that
awful dlacaae railed Dyspepsia. My whole ays
torn was prostrated with weakness and nervous
dobllity; I could not digest my food; If I ate even
a cracker, or the smallest amount of food, it
would return just aa I swallowed it; I became so
coatlvo iu my bowels that I would not have a
pasfiage in less than from four, and often cijht
days; under this immense stiflcring my mind
eccuied entirely to Rive way. I had dreadful
horror and evil forebodings; I thought everybody
hated me, and I haled everybody; I could not
bear my husband nor my own children; every
thing appeared to ho horror stricken to me; I
had no ambition to do anything; I lost all love
of family and homo; I would ramble and
wander from place to place, but could
not bo contented. I felt that I was doomed
to hell, and that there was uo heaven for
mo, and was often tempted to commit
Bukide. So near was my whole nervous
M'stem destroyed, and.also my mind, from that
awful complaint, Dyspepsia, that my friends
thought l)ct to have me placed in Dr. Klrk
brldc's Hospital, at Went Philadelphia. I remained
there nine weeks, and thought I was a little bet
ter, but in a few days my dreadful complaint
was raging as bad as ever. Hearing of the won
derful cures performed by Dr. Wiehart'a Great
American Dyspepsia Pills and his treatment for
Dyspepsia, my husband called on Dr. Wislmrt
and stated my case to him. He satd he hud no
doubt hecould cure me. 80 in three days after
I called and placed myself under the Doctor's
treatment, and in two weeks I began to digot
my food, and felt that my disense was fast giv
ing way, and I continued to recover for about
three months, and at tho present time I enjoy
perfect health of body and mind, and I most
sincerely return my thanks to a merciful God
and Dr. Wishart, nnd to his great American
Dyspepsia Pills and treatment, that saved me
from an Insane Asylum and a premature grave.
All persons suffering with Dyspepsia are at
liberty to call on me or write, as I am willing to
do all I cuu for suffering humanity.
Elizabeth Bkanson.
Brandywinc, Del., formerly of Old Chester, Pa.
Dvsi'EfsiA ! Dyspepsia !
Mr. 'Wishart I have been a constant sufferer
with dyspepsia for the last eighteen years, during
which time I cannot say I ever enjoyed a per
fectly well day. There were times when the
symptoms were more aggravated than at others,
and then it seemed it would be a great relief to
die. I had at all times an unpleasant feeling iu
my head, but latterly my suffering so much in
creased that I became almost unfit for business
of any kind: my mind was continually filled
with gloomy thoughts nnd forebodings, and if I
attempted to change their current by reading,
at once a sensation of icy coldness In connection
with a dead weight, as it were", rested upon my
brain; also a feeling of sickness would
occur at the stomach, and great
pain in my eyes, accompanied with which
was the continual fear of losing my reason. I
also experienced great lassitude, debility, and
nervousness, which made it diflicult to walk by
day or sleep by night. I became averse to
society, and disposed only to seclusion, nnd
having tried the skill of a number of eminent
physicians of various schools, finally came
to the conclusion that for the disease at
my present age (forty-five years), there was uo
cure in existence. But, through the Interference
of Divine Providence, to whom I devoutly offer
my thanks, I at last found a sovereign remedy
In your Dyspepsia Pills and Tar Cordial, which
seem to have effectually removed almost the
last trace of my long list of ailments nnd bad
feelings, and in their place health, pleasure, and
contentment are my evcry-day companions.
