I recollect a „pretty incident, which
may not be uninteresting to the reader.
A wild young fellow. niarrie t a lovely
young girl,and having been long addicted
to habits of dissipation, even his sincere
attachment which he entertained towards
his wife could not entirely disentangle
him from its snares. His sce s asion,al ir•
regular hours would have given any but
one of so pure and sweet a disposition,
every reason to suspect that she did not
hold that place in his affection which
was her right; but this reflection scarcely
ever intruded upon her spirits. The
husband was far 'from be,ing, cruel, and
really loved her, but his disposition was
weak and his companions eloquent, and
he seemed to grow worse rather than
better' in 'his
that he was called out of town, and in
his haste left behind him a letter, in
which to please an unprincipled friend,
he spoke of his wife in terms of careless
ness, if not of derision, and dilated freely
upon his general course of life. Imagine
the anxiety and suspense of the startled
profligate when he found himself borne
by a rapid steamboat upon a journey
which must necessarily be of several days
duration,yet remembering distinctly that
the fatal letter was left exposed mi l d un
sealed upon his wife's table. He rccol
lected too, with a pang, that he had want
only, in answer to her inquiries, boasted
that it contained a profound secret which
be mould not have revealed for the world.
He paced the deck in agony of disap
pointment and shame. Ire pictured her
opening the letter, and turning pale with
horror and indignation ; perhaps faint
ing with anguish; alarming the servants
flying to her father—renouncing him
forever. As soon as possible he returtrad
but with a sinking hcart,to his dwelling.
bracing himself up to meet the fury of an
enraged and wretched woman. lie
opened the doer softly. She was bend
ing over her table busily writing. A
placid smile sealed her mouth with a
perfect beauty,and spread over her glow
'arperoitariNfcTi-arshl- wi:Art lrg"" rag
.L uiCiweet ballad fell from her lips
in a low music, that flows only from a
heart entirely at rest, The husband
stole noiselessly around, and read as her
pen traced her gentle thoughts :
"Your letter is lying by me. The
very, very letter containing the 'profound
secret.' Now I could punish you for
your carelessness; but my dear Charles,
how could I look: youin the face on your
return, after having basely violated your
trust in my integrity, and mealy sought
to gratify a silly . curiosity at the expense
of honesty, delicacy and confidence.—
No. The letter is unopened, and lest
you should feel uneasy I enclose it to you,
with the sincere love of,your affectionate
wife," etc.
" 'What an angel !' uttered the con
.
•
science stricken husband: -
"She startled up with , a cry of pleas
ure—and as Charles met the light of her
clear unshrinking eyes, he was humbled
that he should have suspected her, and
deeply struck with repentance at his own
conduct. He thenceforth severed all
ties that drew him abroad ; and if the
pure and happy being whose influence
had thus allured him to the path of right,
had perused all his subsequent !atom,
she wn „ia t. ruuna 'nothing concern
-snsr, Herself, save bursts of the sincerest
admiration and the warmest love."

A Sure Proveutativc of
Cia
rjnw u 1.%; E I , IIT, EAIEDI . was discovered
and introduced about twenty years ago by Dr.
S. uheopsits, an eminent Egyptian physician.
He laud bong seen and fen, the want of sonic reme
dy which would strike at the root of disease, and so
prevent much 0 t the suffering which the human
family 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 fellowonan the
wonderful Zitiguri hitters. The tweet of this prep
aration in the prevention and cure or disease, was
so marvellous and astonishing, that the thort Bat
tering marks of royal favor were bestowed upon
him who discovered it. His name was placed upon
the Roll of Nobles, and a gold tnedal Wail the thl
lowing inscription—Dr, Chcopsus, the Public Bene
factor—was presented to him by [lie Viceroy.
The preparation has been used in several epidem
ics of cholera, both as a preventive and curative
measure, and with such great success, that it has
been introduced into nearly all the general hospitals
or the old world.
The old saving that an ounce of prevention is
worth n pound of cure, applies with marvelous force
to cholera, and therefore any remedy that will pro
tect us against. his terrible disease should be freely
and persistently used.
All pathologists now agree that the cholera poison

When Mishler's Bitters Were first intro
duced to the public the propriotor did not
feel justified in recommending it its a spe
cific for Cholera. During the fall of 1565,
I 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 standiag,was
ffospitteStewardin 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 ad, 1865.
Dr. Iklishler—Dear Sir:—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 lbr all diseases of this kind," as the
Bitters you now making I request you to
prepare such a quantity of your bitter as
would suit 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.
570,198,3,
Yours respectfully.
JACOB L. BAKER
. _ .
Being thus urged, and having noticed
the Bitters were constantly curing the most
violent eases of Diarrlnno, Cholera Morbus
and kindred complaints, Dr. Mishler at last
offered his compounds ass cure for Cholera
The result has exceeded his most sanguine
1 expectations and fully justifies all that Mr.
, baker says in his note. It certainly proves
1 fiat Mr. Baker's practical knowledge of
nedittine far exceeds that of most doctors
w\ao too often dose their patients with de
leterious drugs on some absurd theory.—
ho ( the purpose of showing that Mishler's
He b Bitters will cure Cholera we give
hob V a few iitets.
A. intelligent persons who have investi
gala the origin of cholera, agree that it is
causgl by poison introduced and generated
into llie system by impure water, damp
ness, ilth and over-crowded rooms with
deticiet ventilation. This is proved by
the lac that cholera always rages worse
on boa d of ships where_all of the above
causes are found more or less combined.
To cure \bolero, and also to prevent it s it is
nece.ssar3 to neutralize this position, and
that Mislier'sßitters will do this is pruv Cll
by the fol\owing :
The steamship Virginia arrived at the
Port of Isltw York; aboot! the middle of
April witneholora a board a number of the
passengers having died during the voyage
with this complaint. Among the passen
gers were a tlLlaily named Schmitt), from
' Baden Clertiony. This dually was at
tacked cholera. Fortunately for them
they had friends living in this city (Lan
caster. Pa.,) who knew the virtues of :dish
ler's Bitters and who procured a bottle and
sent it to the Schmitt' tinnily. When this
package arrived at quarautine,the doctors
examined it and confiscated the contents. '
Another bottle was procured and packed in ,
a more secure manner: it safely reaelled the 1
Schmiths. On its arrival aboard the. Vir
g/via, Henry Sehmith and Christ. Sehmith
were both laboring under choleric symp
toms:
Mrs. Nlarcia Schmith, wife of the
former was cry bad, not expected to re
cover, and a ion had died of time dread com
plaint and hid been buried theday previ
ous. It was in this plight a bottle of Mish
ler's 13itte.rs 4 ' sent forth like.an Angel of
Mercy bound the poor Schmidt family.—
Henry Schmitt' was the first to try it, and
so instantaneous was the relief be experi
enced that he gave it toms witband 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
tude for the timely relief they had found
in his Bitters. Mr. Henry Schmitt' stated
that all the compounds the doctors had
given hint did no good, but that one glass
of Mishler's Bitters made him feel like a
»el 4 man, warming his whole system,
giving him a healthful heat and causing
him to pprspire freely. His statement was
substantially was substantially as given
above, and he farther said that if the doc
-I,,ety4l.o_,7}pk.a.qel,llll.3.,„lit:gto Pialtk-rr=
the effect of cholera, but the continued use
of the Bitters we re most surely restoring

found in the Dispensatory will cure Chol
era or any other complaint, but candor
compels 15r. D. H. Bissell of the Cholera
Hospital ship " Falcon" to admit that he
believes Mishler's Bitters to be a " very
good `Panic." In reply as to a case or 13it
ters that was sent to hint by a well known
gentleman of Lancaster, he writes as fol
, lows :
hospital Ship raleon,
Quarantin New York,.lune 7th, 1: 2 6(1.j
George S. ' liowbotham, 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 Inc for trial Sc.,
that I gave them to the convalescents in
Hospital. I believe them to be a very
good tonic Bitters, well adapted to all eases
requiring Tonic remedies.
' D. 11. BISSELL, Physician,
llospital. Ship lfaleon."
This letter from Dr. J3isseit,justafter the
reception or 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-day 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 tichmith
tiuttity—who while in the Steamer Vir
ginia, were under Dr. Bissell's control,
flows what the Bitters have done and can
do.
Another case of Cholera cured by Mish
ler,s Herb Bitters is that of Mr. Pearsol of
York county, who,alter suffering severely
Irma all the symptons of Cholera, finally
became collapsed anti while in this state,
(the doctors stating that he was beyond re
lief) a friend administered freely,Mishler's
Bitters. The etleo, was instantaneous ;
heat waseenerated in the body, perspira
tion was induced and after using one bat
tle Mr. Pearsol was entirely restored.
Mislifer's Bitters cures Cholera by coun
teracting the poison which is the cause of
the disease. Poison in the system,whether
generated by bad air, filth, cte., 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 use of Michler's Herb Bitters. The
above Proves this to be the fact in Cholera
and the certificate of Mr.Rhinchart proves
that Mishier's Billers will cure the bite of
a poisonous
Lancaster, ,Tul 4th, ari.
Mr. B. Mish bou t y
eight weeks
since I was bitten in the left hand by a
snake, but at the time did not know of
what species it was. Immediately after
the bite may hand swelled to a very large
size, and the poison appeared to be work
ing up rny artn. I suffered great pain in
my hand and arm ; I had to quit work and
was:dr:del I would be compelled to have
lily hand amputated. I Caine 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 agaiD. The poison was
all drawn out and Misliter's, Ilerb Bitters
was the only medicine or application that
I uncio use of. Mr. Christian Burns, a
near neighbor of mine, went out a clay or
two after to the place where I was bitten,
and killed what I believe was the same
snake that bit me as he caug,ht, within live
yards of the spot where I was bitten. It
proved to be what is called a copper snake;
at any rale, whether it AVILS the same one
that bit me or not—one thing is certain—
, that your Bitters cured the bite of a snake
itfl;ny case for which I shall ever be thank
ful, as I Believe it was the means of saving
my lkand :
I shall be pleased to personally satisfy
any one of the truth of.the above.

Cor. of Third arid Cherry St
Scrofula, or K i ng 's Ev
is a constitutional disease, a corruption of.
blood,' by which 'this fluid' becomes vitia
weak, arid phor.. Being 'in the circulation
pervades' the whole body, and may burst
in disease on any part of it. No organ is ;
front its attacks, nor is there one which it r
not destroy. The, scrofulous taint is variot
caused by mercurial disease, low living,
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, f
and filthy habits, the depressing' vices, a
above all, by the venerearinfdetion. Zvi
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in 'the e
stitution, descending "from parents to child
unto the third and fourth generation ; '!.'indt
it seems to be the rod of Him who says,
will visit the iniquities of the fathers tq
their children:"
Its effects commence by deposition from
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is tent
tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul e
ruption, which genders in the blood, dopres
the energies of life, so that scrofulous eonsti
tions not only suffer from scrofulous co
plaints, but they have far less,power to wi
stand the attacks of other diseases; 'Con
quently vast numbers perish by disoi'd
which, although not scrofulous in. their natu
are still rendered fatal by this taint in I
system. Most of the consumption
cimates the human family has its origin dirce
in this scrofulous contamination; and ma
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, bra:
and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofulon
their persons are invaded by this lurking i
fection, and their health is undermined by.
To cleanse it from the system we must renew
the blood by an alterative medicine, and i
vigorate it by healthy food and. exercif
Such a medicine we supply in
AYER'S
Compound Extract of Sarsaparin
the most effectual remedy which the medic
skill of our times can devise for this ever'
where prevailing and fatal malady. It is con
bined from the most active remedials that has
been discovered for the expurgation of this foi
disorder from the blood, and the rescue of tt
system from its destructive consequence
Hence it should be employed for the cure c
not only Scrofula, but also those other affec
tions which arise from it, such as BRUPTIV
and SHIN DISEASES, ST. ANTHONY'S PIM

in " impurity of the blood" is founded in truth
for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. Thl
particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsaps

Intermittent Fever, or Fever and Ag:ie,

Ague, Periodical Headache, or nilions
Headache, and Bilious Fevers, indeed.
for the whole class of diseases originat
ing in binary derangement, caused by,
the Malaria of Miasmatic Countries.
We are enabled here to offer the community a•
remedy which, while it cures the above complaints
with certainty, is still perfectly harmless in any
quantity. Such a remedy is invaluable in thstricts
where these afflicting disorders prevail. This
" Cunn" expels the miasmatic poison of FEVF.R
AND AGUE from the system, and prevents the de
velopment of the disease, if taken on the first ap
proach of its premonitory symptoms. It is not only
the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class
of complaints, but also the cheapest. The large
quantity we supply for a dollar brings it within th
reach of every body ; and in bilious districts, wher ,
FEVER AND AGIfF, prevails, every body should,
have it and use it freely both for cure and motet
tion. A great superiority of this remedy over an •
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
lalllLll.o/0 Ottisaifa
or mineral, consequently it produces no quinism or
other injurious effects whatever upon the constitu
tion. Those cured by it are left as healthy as if
they had never had the disf'use.
I ever and Ague is not alone the consequence of
the miasmatic poison. A great variety of disor
ders arise from its irritation, among which are
Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache, Blind
ness, .toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Pal.
Ritation, Painful Affection of the Spleen, Mister
ws, Pait in the Bowels, Colic, Paralysis and De
rangement of the Stomach, all of which, when
originating in this cause, put on the intermittent
type, or become periodical. This " CtritE" expels
the poison from the blood, and consequently cures
them all alike; It is an invaluable protection 'o
immigrants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing in the malarious districts. If taken occa
sionally or daily while exposed to the infection,
that will be excreted from the system, and cannot
accumulate in sufficient quantity to ripen into, dis,
