THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 30, 18G9. our nnnQioua column. Piirillratlon by Pain. Has the reader ever known the weariness of tuncrlng, the clouding of Iho Inner sky, the liauutluir of (spectral Bhapen, the miser of dis ordered laws, when nature Is wrong within him, and her music U out of tuno and harsh, when Le la shot through with varied griefs and pains, and It seems as there were no life more In the world, save of misery "pain, pain ever, for ever?" Then, surely, ho has also known the turn of the tide, when the pain hoglns to abate, when the sweet sleep falls upon soul and body, when a falut hope doubtfully glimmers across the gloom! Or has he known the sudden waking from sleep and from fever at once, the consciousness that life is life, that Ufa is the law of things, the coolness rind the gladness, when the garments of pain which, like that fabled garment of Do jaulra, enwrapped and ato into his being, have folded back from head and heart, and ho looks out again once more new-born ? It Is God. This Is His will, His law of life conquering the liw ot, death. Tell mo not of natural laws, as If I were ignorant of them or meant to deny them. Thcfuestion is whether these laws go wheeling on of themselves In a symmetry of mathematical shapes, or whether their perfect order, their unbroken certainty of movement, is not the expression of a perfect intellect informed by a perfect heart. Law la truth: has it a soul of thought or has it not? If not, then farewell hope and love and possible perfection. But for me, I Will hope on, strive on, fight with the Invading unbelief; for the horror of bolng the sport of iu sensute law, the more perfect the more terrible, is hell and utter perdition. If a man tells mc that science says God la not a likely being, I answ er, Probably not such as you, who have given your keen, admirable, enviable powers to the observation of outer things only, are capa ble of supposing Him; but that the .God I mean may not be the very heart of the lovely order you 6ce so much bettor than I, you have given me no reason to fear. My God may be above and beyond and In all that. In this matter of healing, then, as in all the miracles, we find Jesus doing the works of the atlfer. God Is our Saviour: tho Son of God mes healing the sick doing this, I repeat, our eyes, which tho Father, for Ills own some of which I think I can seo well h, docs from behind tho veil of His crea- aud its laws. Tho cure comes by law, by the physician who brings the law to 6u us; we awake, and lo ! it is God the . Every recovery is as much His work as the birth of a child ; as much the work of tho Father as if it had been wrought by tho word of tho Sou before the eyes of the multitude. J.ovlriK JeHiis. His love to the Lord Jesus is the mark of a Christian. He stands alone, distinguished from nil other beings by this single, central peculiar ity, that he is one with the Son of God in llesh. Lost till Jesus became his Head to share his death with him, ho is lost still but that Jesus Bhares His own life with him. If you could de Btroy Jesus, or, which comes to tho same thing, if you could undo the man' connection with Him, you. would destroy tho man. It Is this strange position of his which generates, as the special mark by which the Christian's charac ter Is to be known, a love which Is like no other love. For closeness, for tenderness, for power, a Christian's love to Christ ought to bo unrivalled in creation. For closeness, because there Is betwixt these twain such intimacy that the one is everything to the other, and never can be for a moment shut out from confidential participation in tho most sacred secret movings of the other's heart. No two ever dwelt in each other with such unbroken fellowship, soul un veiled to soul, as Jesus and the man whose life He Is. For tenderness, too, because this la not an equal lovo, but the love of the little for the great, of the enemy disarmed and won over through tho sacrifice of his wronged and offended Lord. We love Him because He began to love ua when wo were unlovely, and washed us clean in His own blood, and wiped away our tears of regret, and hushed our fears, and raised us out of a low pit to be His friends and brethren. Ours is tho love of the lowly, indebted, and dependent. Must it not be tender ? And It Is strong as It Is tender. If there is strength in men at,.all, and love is, as the people say, the strongest thing in men's hearts, then surely this must bo ihe strongest of known lovea. For it is the deepest. We love others with a part only, but Christ with the whole heart, and soul, and strength, and mind. We are attached to others only surface-wise, as It were, with a top hold that loosens and lets go when we change our countenance to go hence; but it Is the very inner being, the life, which is given to Him in love. It la not so much tho man who loves, as His own strong Spirit Who is entered into, and hath taken hold of, the human spirit, to draw it out Christ warda in unutterable drawings of, de Totion. We part with thi3 lovo only when we fart with our soul's life, and that is, never. - Christian Ivlndnes. "Be ye kind one to another." It is the com mand of your Father which is in heaven, for tified by the great example of His kindness to you. The command Itself shows forth the kind ness of Him from whom it emanates. Not satis fled with lavishing upon you all the bounties of His providence, not satisfied with drawing as near and as lovingly to you as ever Ho could In Jesus Christ, and giving you the crowning proof of His own kludnesa which the Cross supplies, He gives a solemn charge to all His children to be kind to you, and to. you to be" kind to them. Do you ask, "To whom is this kindness to be extended? Is It to those only who invite it, are worthy of it, will be grateful for it, may repay It? lie points in answer to His own example, and He tells you that if you would be Indeed His children, you must make no exceptions, lay down no limits, but be imitators of Him who is good unto all, who makcth His sun to rise on tho evil and tho good, and who sendeth His rain on the j list and on the unjust. Jeremy Taylor closes his great work on the "Liberty of Pro phesying" in these words:" "I end with a story which I find In the Jews' book. When Abraham Sat in his teut-door according to his custom, waiting to entertain straugers, ho espied an old man stooping and leaning on his stall, weary with age aud travel, coming towards him, who was an hundred years old. He received him kindly, washed his feet, provided supper, caused him to sit down, but observing that the old man ate, and prayed not, nor beggod for a blessing on his food, ho asked him why he did not worship the God of heaven. Tho old man told him tkat ho worshipped the fire only, and acknowledged no other God. At which answer Abraham grew so zealously angry tlmt ho thrust the old man out of his tent, aud exposed him to nil the evils of the night und.au uuguarded con dition. When tho old man was gone, God called V . V to Abraham and asked him who the stranger wag. He replied, 'I tlinift him away because ho did not worship Thee.' God answered, 'I hare suffered him these hundred years, although he dishonored mo, and couldest thou not endure him ono night when ho gave thee no trouble ?' I'pon this Abraham fetched him back again, and gave him hospitable entertainment and wise Instruction." Wl'.MIAKY OF CIIUKCII NEWS. METHODIST. The Van Btiren Centre (N. Y.) Church has just dedicated a7000 meeting house. Concerning tho vote on la delegation, the Methodist says: "Thus farwelfave the requisite throe-fourths vote of all the conference re ported, and ir$l votes to snare." Kcv. Samuel Lucky, J). I)., of East Genes see Conference, aud one of the Kcgents of the University of tho State of New York, died on the 11th instant. He was editor of the Christian Ad vocate from l&ill to 1840. Tho Central Illinois Methodist Conference has passed a resolution asking tho Constitutional Convention to insert a clause into tho State Constitution forbidding any grant of money or lands to bo made, either directly or indirectly, to denominational schools. A Methodist minister in East Cnmbridsre. Mass., had some converts who wished to be im mersed. Accordingly ho appointed time a few Sabbaths ago to administer tho rito in Charles river. The time enmo, aud so did the candidates, and a largo congregation. But the tide was out; and, as it was thought hardly scriptural toini merso in mud, the ceremony was deferred. He hud consulted his almanac, but had taken the time of New York instead- of Boston for high tide. Ex. lUPTIST. The Baptist Theological Seminary of Chi cago pays 0000 for Hcngnlenbcrg's libiary. The Baptist Iibk't:uioii held Its :ith anni versary October !i0. The receipts wero 58,:it;o, tho expenses $(51,717. The Books of Exodus, Judges, and Kuth have been revised by Dr. liackctt, Joshua and First and Second Samuel by Dr. Bliss, and nearly 100 pages of the l'salms as revised by Dr. Conant are in type. The Baptists of England are calling for moro effort for church extension. They pub lish the statement that last year there were in Yorkshire county 1'JOO towns and villages with out a Baptist church: and that, while the Inde dependents contributed 41180 for county evan gelization, tho Wesleyans X4t80, and the Epis copalians t'65'JO, the Baptists gave but CJT4. liEFOitMrn. It is announced that Misses Mandcville and Chapin, recent graduates of the Claverack Iusti tute, have devoted themselves to missionary work, and will depart for India about tho first of October. Miss Mandcville goes out under the auspices of the First Reformed Church of the city of Hudson, aud Miss Chapin under that of the Reformed Church of Claverack. MORAVIAN. The et:itistics of tho Moravian Church, iust published, show 14.871 communicants, ol whom 4805 are in Germany. !W08 In Great Britain, and 0707 in North America. The communicants in mission fields are not counted in, but there are .1,1 . - . t t . j;, lm persons in ineirioreigu mission congrega tions, ministered to by 305' missionaries, winch gives an average of one foreign missionary to every forty-nine members at home. CONGREGATIONAL. Mr. L. Whcaton Allen was ordained as pas tor of the Congregatioual Church in South Brain tree, Mass., Oct. 13. Bev. J. A. Barrows, late pastor of the First Congregational Church In Exeter, N. 11., will sail next mouth for Ccsarca, in Western Tur key. Bev. E. G Parsons, for eighteen vcars pas tor of the Congregational Church iu'Derry, N. H., has resigned. For the present he accepts tho priuelpabhip of the Pinkerton Academy, in that town. Kev. James T. Hyde, late of Middlcbury, Vt., has been elected to the Professorship of Pastoral Theology in the Chicago Theological Seminary. An Eastern friend lias recently -riven $5000 to the seminary. There arc about fifty students this year. At the meeting of the California Congrega tional Association it was slated that nine church buildings had been completed and four others commenced (luring tho year. The churches have paid $2530 gold into the Home Missionary treasury, and the hope was expressed that Cali fornia would be the first State to assume its own home mission work. We learn from tho late report that Maine has 240 Congregational churches connected with conferences, of which 57 have pastors, 85 stated supplies, and 21 are supplied by licentiates. Tho total membership is 19,001), of whom 3510 arc absent, and 540 were added during the year on profession. The real gain, alter deducting deaths and emigration, is 174. Maine lias an active Home Missionary Society, which supplied preaching at about 100 stations last year. Ver mont does a similar domestic work, with 40 aided churches and 19 itinerant fields. There "are reported 190 churches, with 18,593 members, of whom 3137 are absent. On profession, 800 were added, and there is a net increase of 423. The Orthodox Congregatioual denomina tion in Massachusetts comprises 500 churches, 80,057 communicants, and 001 ministers. Its Sunday-school attendants number 93,844, and its benevolent contributions, for 1809, amount tt $300,09280. Besides tho General Association, including all the churches In the State, there are twenty-two Local Conferences included in the General Association, and each one embracing from ten to twenty churches. These hold an nual sessions, continuing two days. Tho Forty eighth Annual Session of the Middlesex Union of Congregational Churches was begun at Fitch burg, October 20th, at 9 o'clock A. M., and Kcv. E. Loouiis, of Littleton, was chosen President, and Kev. W. J. Batt, of Lomiuster, Secretary. 1 he exercises consisted of addresses, sermons, reports, etc., und were of special interest. The attendance was largo. EPISCOPAL. The Episcopalians of Syracuse, N. Y., have purchased for Bishop Huntington a beautiful residence in that city, at a cost of $23,500. The corner-stone of the Church of the Ascension, an Episcopal edifice, was late at Troy, New Yoik, on luesday of last week. Tho church will eoct $40,000, and will be erected entirely at tho expense of Mr. F. W. Farnham, of thai city. The Epit-copalians hold regular preaching services in a large hall In Salt Lake City, and have a fine school with ono hundred scholars, some of them the children of Mormons. They do not feel that their lives ttre in danger, and have recently purchased, with aid from the East, a beautiful residence and a largo lot of laud for $11,000. Bishop Cox, of Buffalo, N. Y., has a father, 8aniuel Hanson Cox, D. D., u scholarly man, a genius, aud a Presbyterian well known to fame. It happened onco that this reverend father visited his son, the Bishop, and tho following dialogue ensued on buuilay morning: Bishop "Father, you know that I would like to have you preach for me, but, theu, you know our cnurcu aoes noi recognie your ordination, and 1 must keep to tho order." Dr. Cox "May God forgive me for being tho father of a fool." J'rtnliyterian. Tho proposcdrevision of that part of tho Prayer Book which includes morning and even ing prayer Is given in the Protestant Church man. Itomits in the "Declaration of Absolution," a few seutcuces that aro in dispute; and incor porates more Scripture, taken uhvays from tho ordinary version. A prayer for missions is In corporated, and tho petition for deliverance from "suddcu death" become one for deliver ance from "unprepared death" a doctrinal but not rhetorical improvement, Perfect liberty is allowed In this sehemo, which it Is designed to make the entering wedge to a divi sion if greater rubrical liberty Is not allowed Iialejundinee. Week before last tho Independent announced, that "two-thirds of the Btudeuts of the General tEplscopal) Theological Seminary" of New York hud "gone over to the Bouian Catholics." We supposed, when we taw the statement, that tho printer had changed "two or three" Into "two thirds," and that the mistake escaped the notice of the proof-reader, and we fully expected to find a correction In tho next Issue of the paper. But wo have sought for it In vain. Such a correction would not. it la truo, begin to repair the injury done by tho original statement, aud it was,the very least that could have been de manded of the proprietors of the Independent. But it seems that the paper in question docs not care to take trouble to correct even a misstatement as serious ns this. We cannot help wondering how much the Independent' boasted devotion to truth ond justice ns tho highest typo of religion really amounts to. It stands up, a valiant cham pion of humnn rights, and yet tramples thoni under foot. It glorifies and Idolizes truth in the abstract, and at the same time shelters and fosters concrete falsehoods with perfect self complacency. It has a supreme contempt for facts, but the deepest veneration for theories. I Jar t ford Churchman. CATitor.rc. We take these Items ol news from a letter wi ll ten in Home: The constructions at St. Petcr'a arc of a most solid appearance, and look as if they were In tended lo last as long as tho Council of Trent. Great hopes are entertained, however, that one session may conclude the labors of the Council, as the prolonged absence of the bishops would be attended with great inconvenience in tho present state of nearly every part of the Chris tian world. Tho (isservatore Romano has hot reproduced Pere Hyacluthe's letter, but it has appeared iu the Xazionc and all the revolutionary jprints, and has been welcomed by the whole sccluriau press as the rallying cry of a schism.

Innocuous even to themselves. The letter of Pere llyaciulhc has astonished no one here who attended Ills sermons at St. Louis two years since, in which, although very moderate, coinpnred to his subsequent preach ing, the direction of his ideas was sufficiently apparent. The Pope said of him on his last visit to Koine, "'Ecco uu altroeho per superbla andr a linirc coi pax..i'' (there goes another whom pride will send Into a madhouse). The whole chorus of revolu tionary journalism in Italy is intoning a hymn of jubilation, and it only require.- n letter from Garibaldi, which, no doubt, will follow shortly, to put the seal on tho deplorable seces sion of one who might have rendered great ser vice to the Church. 1 do not find, however, that any importance is attached to it lffcre. save as respects Pere IlyaeintJoe himself. No indi vidual has influence enough in France to injure the Church, and the Pere llyaciuthe, once re stored to secular life and action, will be no more than Mr. Ffoulkos. or the Padre Passaglia. or any other person who rejects the authority of the Church of God speaking through Home. The Trappi'st monks of Tic Fontano have been obliged to appeal to the faithful for alms to acquire a residence for the fever season, as they have lost three Fathers, aud had tho whole community ill with fever in their first year of installation. They hope by degrees to reclaim the land und render it healthy, but some healthy residence to change air for, at least, most of the autumn, is absolutely necessary. Several of our readers may be unaware that, by order of PiusIX( important excavations are in process of execution in various districts of the 1 toman territory, and especially at Ostia. The laborers employed in Hie work are galley-slaves (gahotti), under the supervision of Commandant isconti and the surreilianre of the gallcy guards. Now it will not be. uninteresting to enumerate some of tho compensations allowed by tho directors ol the fonlifical Museums to those criminals condemned to compulsory labor. They have, in the first place, a dully compensa tion of five baiocchi (about five cents). Besides that, whoever finds a bronze coin receives a re ward of one cent; five cents arc given for each silver coin, and fifteen cents for each gold coin. The galeotto w ho is so extremely lucky as to dig a cameo or an engraven cornelian, receives five vaoli (half a dollar). Ho who conies upon a statue, If ho succeeds in exhuming it without in juring it, is rewarded with a ncwi d'oro (one dollar). Lastly, for every month of labor at the excavution, a remission of ten days is made to each galley-slave on the time he has yet to re main iu "durance vile." A mouslgnor affirmed, some years ago in Rome, that there has never been an instance of a galeotto appropriating any of the relics which aro tho objects of their re searches. Moro than that, not u few, at the ex piration of their term of punishment, have craved permission to remain on the works ou the some footing as the rest. Galley-slaves from choice !

CONSUMPTION CAN- BE CURED BEAD THE EVIDENCE. "Facts arc stubborn thino;," and it Is to facts alone that It Is desired to direct the attention of the readers of this article. Many years of severe and thorough practical trial have demonstrated beyond the peradventuro of a doubt the fact that the medicines prepared by mc, and known as SCHENCK'S MANDRAKE PILLS, SCHENCK'S SEAWEED TONIC, and SCHENCK'S PULMONIC SYRI P, have proved extraordinarily successful In the cure of diseases of tho Pulmonary organs, or what is usually termed CONSUMPTION. I am fully aware that there are many persons whose prejudices rule them so completolv that "proofs Btrono; as Holy Writ" would fail to con vince them of the cllicacy of my remedies; and that there arc others who, under no circum stances, could be prevailed upon to admit their merits, simply because such an admission would rrovo detrimental to their particular personal interests. Fortunately for the welfare of mankind, these doubting people form a comparatively small portion of the community at lare. Thej arc to be found here and there, but, compared with tho great mass of the world's population, their num bers aro so small that I dismiss them, and ad dress myself to those vtho arc willing to listen to the dictates of reason, rnd who are disposed to admit the siron-r louie of well-established facts. We nre told almost daily that Consumption, Ihe scourpc of llic American people, Is incurable; that a man whoso lunga are diseased must be given over to die; that he must abandon hope; and that the arrangement of his temporal as well u spiritual affairs should claim hU earliest atten tion. If there were not facls as undeniable ns tlmt the sun wiil shine iu a clear heaven at mid day to controvert these raudom aud not unfre quently harmful assertions, I should feel un willing to lake up the gage of battle against them; but, fortified with results facts which neither theory nor mere assertion enn overturn, I Propose to prove that CONSUMPTION CAN UK CUUED, and that the medicines I prepare THE MANDRAKE PILLS, SEAWEED TONIC, and PULMONIC SYRUP will, if used In strict accordance with the directions, in a majority of cases effect that which the faculty prououuees impossible the; will cure Consumption. An ounce of solid fact is worth a pound ot theory. Let mc, therefore, present the facts connected with my own Individual experience. Many years ago I was a confirmed consumptive, and, like thousands oi other unfortunates, was given up to die. Eminent physicians pro nounced my case a hopeless one," and told mo that if Iliad auy preparations to make for the linal solemn eypnt, that I had better make them speedily. I believed this just as confidently as did the'persons who thus affectionately informed mc that my days wero numbered and that re covery was impossible. Still, tho desire to live lingered in my bosom. I was young, and clung to life with tiie same tenacity that 'young men, and old men too, ordinarily do. I did not feel willing to abandon hope as'long is a sintrle ves tige of It remained, i had full faith in the sad information conveyed to mc bymy physicians, but still there was'a lingering belief that some thing could be done, though i knew not iu what direction to seek for the much-desired relief. It was at this gloomy and eventful period of my history that 1 first learned of the roots aud herbs from which my remedies for this dreaded disease are now prepared. I procured aud used them, and, to fhe utter amazement of all phy sicians, friends, aud neighbors began to im prove. My entire system commenced to undergo a complete renovation. Expectoration, which formerly had been difficult and painful, now be came comparatively cay. I threw oil daily large (uantitlcs of oflcnsivo yellow matter. A"t the same time my long-lost "appetite rcturued. 1 ate freely nf such food as was palatable to mo, and which was at the same time nutritious and wholesome. Expectoration became less copious and less oflcnsivo ; exhausting night sweats ceased ; the racking and harassing cough abated; the fever broke: the pain departed; flesh planted itself on my sadly-wasted lrame, and with flesh came strength and full health.' From a mere skeleton 1 became a stout, stromr, robust man and I have maintained both strcugth aud ilesh to this dav. I weiirh two hundred and thirtv ; five pounds ; I am blest with an appc'.ite vouch safed to but few men, while my digestive organs are amply equal to all the requirements of a i healthful condition of my system. Now, bo it remembered, all these wonderful changes w ere wrought bv the use of the medi cines' I prepare MANDRAKE PILLS, SEA WEED TONIC, and PULMONIC SYRUP. A cure seemingly so miraculous naturally created nstonishme." in the minds of those wrho knew mc. I wao literally besieged on ull sides, I had visitors daily who besought me to give them the remedies which had wrought tho wonderful restoration and had wrested me from the very laws of death. Letters were received by scores importuning me to impart tuo secret ami inform tho writers where the specifics for consumption could be obtained. Others, who were too weali to travel, not satisfied with writing, sent for and consulted-mo In regard to their cases, 'loall these applications I responded as I was able. I lniU luny regamea my ueauu. auu gratitude for the happy result prompted me to turn my attention to the science of medicine, with tho hope of thereby being able to be of service to my suffering fellow-creatures. I devoted myself closely to my studies, aud moro especially to that blanch of them relating to tho terrible dis ease from which I had suffered so long aud so much. I Investigated It In all Its fearful phases, iu order to ussure myself that my case was not an exceptional one. Tho closer my investiga tions tho more satisfactory were my conclusions. I felt convinced that tens of thousands of my fellow-creatures were dying annually from con sumption whoso cases were not as desperate and apparently hopeless as mine had been, aud I ar-'ued from this that remedies which had proven Eo'eftective with mo would prove equally so with others. I prepared my medicines In a pleasaut aud attractive form, and announced them to tho world. The results aro well kuowu. Thou sands of suffering men, women, and children, who were ou their way to tho grave, have been cured and aro to-dav living evidences of the fact that CONSUMPTION CAN liE CURED; and I think I may say, without arrogating to myself anymore than is justly my due, that I have had as much experience in tho treatment of consumption as any other person iu the coun try, aud that my success has been wonderfully Let the reader remember that these are not mere fancied statements. They aro positive living facts of which I am the living evidence. There is on old adage which says, "What lias been done may bo done." I have been eom platcly cured of consumption by the remedies I now offer to the public. Thousands of others have testified to similar happy results from their use and thousands of others still might be bene fitted as I have bceu could they but be prevailed unon to try the virtue of The Mandrake Pills, Seaweed Tonic, aud Pulmonic S.trup. All that is necessary to convince tho most skeptical of their merits is a fair trial. ....

OUR NATIONAL DISEASE What is It, aud what will cure It? It Is a fact that will not be controverted that Dyspepsia is a national disease, to bo found from tho Presi dential mansion to the humblo cottage along tho marshes ot tho Atlantic. Symptoms There are scarcely two cases of Dyspepsia alike. The symptoms vary. In one case they may bo cold bauds and feet, oppressive soreness and pain In the pit of the stomach, drowsiness after meals. In another, costlveuess, heartburn (so called), tormenting feelings, both mental and physical. Iu a third, nervousness, tho spirits depressed, a foreboding of evil, the mlud so depressed that la some cases there is extreme melancholy, and the sufferer is led to commit suicide. In another, harassing bclchlngs, saliva or a watery sub stance profusely running from the mouth, throat irritated with a dry cough, skin dry, theu cold, the stools clay colored, restlessness at night, 6lccp easily disturbed, frightful dreams, at ono time bowels constipated, then diarrhea or dysen tery, caused by foul matter in tho stomach, caus ing apoplexy aud other diseases beyond tho power of human skill ta control. What will euro It? By Indigestion the food lies in the stomach and Is decomposed by heat, etc., Into a mucus; this mucus adheres to the walls of the stomach until a false membrane Is formed, which para lyzes the functions of the digestive organs. To perform a euro this false membrane must be de tached, and the stomach healed aud brought back to natural tone; without effecting this, it is impossible to effect a cure, and in this mode ol treatment lies Dr. L.Q.C.WISHART'S wonderful cures of the Dyspepsia. Tho Dyspepsia Pill? remove the false lining, and the Pino Tree Tar Cordial heals, making a perfect cure of this dreadful disease. THE VIRTUES OF TAR. A very Ingenious "sell" upon the Royal So ciety of Great Britain was perpetrated by Sir Charles Ilaubury Williams, a wicked wag of the age, during the furore caused by the discovery ot the wonderful healing powers of TAR WATER Sir Charles scut a communication to the President rclatiug the circumstances of a sailor's breaking his leg on board of the guard ship at Chatham, and its perfect uuiou and cure by an application of spuu oakum soaked iu tar. After the communication had been read and printed in the Royul Transact Ions, he sent asecond letter, ' stating that he had forgotten to state in the former correspondence that the leg was a wooden one! Although this joke was a sore ono for the society, it did not injure tho reputation of Tar us a remedy, for its legitimate cures were so w onderful that odes were written iu its praise, and the celebrated Bishop Berkely published two voluminous works describing, endorsing, and registering its virtues. From tho failure of scientific men, at that period, to extract and concentrate tho curative principle from the crude tar, its nauseousucss caused it to fall into disuse, and its great healing powers were lost to mankind until Dr. l. Q. C. Wishart succeeded In depriving tho specific of its unpleasant and cruder particles, and in his PINE TREE TAR CORDIAL offering to the alllictcd all that was valuable, while tkc other parts were eliminated by its careful preparation. As soouiis this was accomplished the remedy was again endorsed by the faculty, and the cures were such as to eon vert its enemies aud firmly establish it as ono of the greatest blessings to suffering humanity. Its success was Immediate aid wide-spread, and its manufacture became of great Importance and a source of wealth to Its reviver. A long life was spent for the w elfare of mankind by Dr. Wlshr.rt in pel feeling his discovery and promulgating Us usefulness, and at his decease (which took place but recently) the method of preparation an the extension of its usefulness devolved upon his sons. It cures colds and couehs with marvellous celerity, and is the only Preparation which ap proaches to a tpecitie. It does not cover and patch up, but eradicates disease by removing the cause, and for obstinate, long-continued catarrhs, and consequently of the incipient stages of consumption, is tho ouly certain remedy in the pharuiaeopceia. It would be a waste of the reader's time to enumerate cases, for the remedy is so well known, its virtues have Iwr-n so thoroughly tested, that eulogy is superfluous aud reference not requisite. Not only as an in ternal remedy is it valuable, but externally it htals sores and irritations, and as a pleasant famigator iu the sick room stands above all others. Tar Cordial is an extremely potent and valu-' able medicine for tho euro of throat and lung diseases. It combines, to a degree unknown iu any other remedy, vigorous action with safety and harmlessness. DR. WISHART'S F2XJX3 THEU TAH CORDIAL. It Is the vital principle of the Pine Tree, ob tained bv a peculiar process iu the distillation of the tar. by which its highest medical properties are retained. It Is the only safeguard and reliable remedy which has ever becu prepared from the j uice of the Pine Tree. It invigorates tho digestive organs and re stores the appetite. It strengthens the debilitated system. It purities and enriches tho blood, and erpols from the system tho corruption which scrofula breeds on the lungs. , . It dissolves tho mucus or phlegm which stops the air paesages of the lungs. Its healing principle acts upon the Irritated surface of the lungs and throat, penetrating to each diseased part, relieving pain and subduing Inflammation. It is the result of years of studv and experi ment, and it is offered to the utllicted with the positive assurance of its power to cure tho fol lowing diseases, it the patient has not too long delayed a resort to the means of cure: Coiivvmption of the Limy, Cough, Sure Tliroat and Breast, Breach iti., Liver Complaint, Blind and Bleeding 1'ihs, Asthma, Vthocqring Cough, Bipthena, etc. CALL AT UU.
