Secur ing a position, through an inscrutable Providence, second to none in the gifts of the nations of .the world, at a crisis in the atlitirs of our history, when 'twere easy by donning the mantle 'of his Mus t-lions predecessor to couple his name with his forever,hehr a strange infatua tion, declined the wreath of immortal honor already prepared for his undeserv in brow, and follow the low instincts of passion and prejudice has sunk so• low that traitors do him honor. it is extremely difficult to understand what motives have . aotuated Mr. Johnson to forsake the principles of the Fatty that elected him (and. which he at the time so heartily endorsed) and mark out a policy so dangerous and ruinous to the i.lterests of the country presenting as its chief feature that anorna.lv in the history of governments,viz: The placing in pri s'itions of power and trust, those who but a few short months previously were en deavoring to destroy the government.— When we compare the well-remembered speeches of the President, made upon his assumption of executive - rimier' with those he recently made while .`swinging around the circle;" we can hardly realize' that both are the utterance& of the same individual made within the short period of less. than two years. Then he was ap?arcntly the most i•a.dical Man in the country, the loudest in hii denunciations of treason and in anthemalizing, its au thors, now the same man is treason's apologist and employs his executive pre , rogatives -in appointing to responsible positions under the government, those 1;71m - opposed the war against treason,yea more, some who followed the flag Of re bellion. • Mr, Johnson has lost the support and confidence of a vast majority of the loyal,' peoplg of the country, (as the late elec tions have incontestably proved) by insisting upon a policy whose results have already 'been so disastrous to the Union sentiments and Union men of the Sotith. Ile has brought into disgrace the highest office in the gift of the American people; 'by making - speeches iu the largest 'towns and cities ,of the, country, on .his late lour, that would shanie the most nn - cooth'siturip orator.

Titus he was lead to think and experiment; and after ten years of study and labor, he presented to his, fellow-man the wonderful Zing:ad Bitters. 'The 'effect of this prep areon. in the. prevention and cure of disease, was . si so mari'ellotis- and astonishing, ' that the most Clat tering marks of royal favor were bestowed upon him .who diseoveredit.i 'his name was - placed upon the Roll of:Nobles, and a gold medal with the fol lowing inscription—Dr, cheopSus,the Public Done factor—was presented to him by the Viceroy. The preparation has been used in several ,epidem hf cholera, both as - is preventive mid curative measure, and with such great success,, that it, has been introduced into nearly all the general hospitals of the old world. The Old 'saying 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 against this terrible disease should be freely and persistently used. All pathologists now agree that the eitolera poison acts on the excretory ;organs, and keeps ,them in working order, must prevent a sufficient accumula tion of this poison to exert its terrible effects on the organism.

Mr. Baker had a great deal of experience 'in ,the , treatment of Cholera is a druggist of sixteen years standing,was Hospital Steward in th e 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 Sir:—Knowing that the Cholera with its dreadful ravages is now upon our land, and knowing that no medi cine now in. ouricountry-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 sultAll demands, as I assure. you they will .be an invaluable remedy, and will he hailed as a blessing by all who will use it. . . Yours respectfully JACOB L. akKER Being thus urged, and having noticed the Bitters were constantly curing the most violent cases of Diarrhoea, Cholera Morbus: and kindred corn plaints,Dr. Mishlerat last ollered his compounds as a cure for Cholera The result has exceeded his most sanguine expectations and fully justifies all that Mr. Balzer says in his note. It certainly proves that Mr. Baker's practical knowledge of medicine far exceeds that of most doctors who too often dose their patients with,de leterious drugs on some absnrd theory.— For the purpose of showing that Mishler'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 poi Son introthmed and generated into to system by impure water, damp ness, filth and "ovel<feroWded — roonis 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 to preventitjt 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 abont the' middle of April -wi th cholera a hoard a number of the passel goers having died during the voyage with 'this complaint.' Among the passen gers were-a family named Schmitt', from Baden, • Germany. This family was at tacked with. cholera. Fortunately for them they had frioilds living in this *city (Lan caster. Pir.,) who knew the virtues of Mish ler's Bitters and, who procured a bottle and sent it to the Sol'imith family. When this package arrived at Quaranti ne,the doctors exainine.cl it and confiscated the contents. Another bottle was procured and packed in a more secure manlier: it safelyreached the &that/tits. On its arrival aboard the Vir rjrnia, Henry Schmith and Christ. Schmith were •both laboring under choleric symp toms: Mrs. - Mai-6a bThrnith, wife of the, former was very bad, not expected to re cover, and a son bad died of the dread Com plaint and had been buried theday -previ ous. Thwas in this plight a bottle of Mish ler's Litters, sent forth 'like an Angel of Mercy found the poor Schmith Henry Schmith was the first to try it, and so instantaneous was the relief he experi enced that he gave it to ins wi to 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 7 two says.— The Scbmiths 'proceeded to their relatives in Lancaster, and - at he early Opportunity called on .Dr. Mishler to express their grati tude for the.timely relief they had found in his Bitters. Mr- Henry,Schmith stated that alt the compciUnds - the doctors had given him. did no.good, but that one glass of Mishler's Bitters matle.him feel like a new man, warming whole system, giving him a health heat and causing him to perspire freely: His statement was substantially 'N'r'as substantially -as given aboye, and lie Aarthcl i r, i.,lphat if t,he doc tors had not kept the first bottle from reaching him, his son would yet hrve been living. -; Mrs. Sob mil it 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 'tvi.l.l cure Ohol era or any other. comptaint,-but candor compels' Dr.-D. fr: Bissell of the Cholera 'Hospital ship t` Falcon" _to admit that Ile believes: Mishler's Bitters to be a " very good' Torde.Y In reply as to a:case of Bit ters that was sent to him by.a well known f , entlentati of Lancaster, he -writes as fol- , . . .

WILLI,A.MS. - Scrofula, or King's Ev i l , is a constitutional disease, a corruption of the blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated, weak, and poor.' Being in the circulation, it 'pervades the whole body, and may burst out in diseaSe on any - part: of it. NO organ is free' from its attacks, nor is there one which it may not destroy. "The scrofulous taint is variously , caused by mercurial disease, low liVing, dis ordered or unhealthy food; - impure air, filth, and filthy habits, the depressing vices, 'and, above all, by the venereal infection. What, ever be its. origin; it is hereditary in the con stitution, descending “from parents to children unto the third and fourth generation ; " indeed, .it seems to be the rod of Him who says, 4, 1, will visit "the iniquities of the fathers upon, their children?! Its effects commence by deposition from the blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in, the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed. tubercles ; in the glands, swellings ; and on the' surface, eruptions - or sores. - This foul cor-. ruption, which genders in the blood, depresses. the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu tions, not only suffer- from scrofulous cons plaints, but they have far less power to with 'stand the attacks of other diseases; conse quently vast numbers perish by disorders. which, although not scrofulous in their nature, are still. rendered fatal by this taint in the system. Most of the consumption which de cimates the human family has its origin direetly in this scrofulous contamination; and many destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain, and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from or are aggravated by the same cause. One quarter of all our people are scrofulous; their persons are invaded by this lurking in fection, and their health is undermined by it. To cleanse it from the system we must renovate the blood by an alterative medicine, and in vigorate it by healthy food and exercise. Such a medicine ire supply in' „-- AYER'S Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla, the most effectual remedy which the medical skill of our times can devise for this every where prevailing and fatal malady. It is com bined from the most active remedials that have been discovered for the expurgation of this foul disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the system from its destructive consequences. Hence it should be employed for the cure of not only Scrofula,but also those other affec tions- which arise from- it, such as ERUPTIVE and SKIN DISEASES, ST. ANTMONY'S FIRE, ROSE, or ERYSIPELAS, PIMPLES, PUSTULES, BLOTCHES, PLAINS and BOIL:. TUMORS, TETTER and SALT Rintuat, SCALD lIEAD, ItuutwonD, RuELIBIATISItt, SYPHILITIC and Mane yam r. Dxs- EASES, DROPSY, DvspEt.siA, Daiummt, and, indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING PROM VITIA TED OR ImrunE pimp)). The popular belief in (i impurity of the blood" is founded in truth, for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. The particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa rilla is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid, without which sound health is impossible in eon Lamina tea constitutions. S Ague Cure 9 I=l Intermittent fever. or Pever and Aguc, Remittent Fever, Chin Fever, D Ague, Periodical liendache, or Bilious 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 erfectly harmless in any quantity. Such a remedy is invaluable in districts where these afflictingg disorders prevail. This "Cone" expels the miasmatic poison of FTIVEIL AND Anon from the system, and prevents the de velopment of the disease, if taken on the first ap proach of its premonitory symptoms. It isnot 3nly 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 the reach of every body ; and in bilious districts, where FEVEIL AND AGUE prevails, every body should have it ain't use it freely both for cure and protec tion. A great superiority of this remedy over•any other ever discovered for the speedy and certain cure of Intermittents is that it contains no Quinine or mineral, consequently it produces no tptin ism or other injurious effects whatever upon the constitu tion. Those cured by it are left as-healthy as if they bad never had the disease. .fever and Ague is not alone the consequence of the miasmatic poison. A great variety of disor ders arise from its irritation, among which era iVeuralpia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache, Blind ness, l oolhache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Pal pitation, Painful Affection of the Spleen, Hyster-. zes, Pain in the Bowels, Colic, Paralysis and De rangement of the Stomach, all of which, when originating in this cause, put on the intcrmitient time, or become periodical. This " Conn" expels the poison from the blood, and consequently cures them all alike. It is an invaluable protection to 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 ease. Renee it is even more valuable for protec tion than cure, and few will ever suffer from Inter mittents if they avail themselves of the protection this remedy affords. repared.by Dr. T. C.
