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. In his sober moments, (if he ever had any,) especially since the verdict of the people of the recent eleVtion; , lie must be excessively hvnibled in : contrasting his present position with what it: ought have been, had he been tine•to the most obvi ous principles of freedom and right.— Doubtless - he!often .thinks of the senti ment more fdrcibly than elegantly- ex presaed, by some unknown poet.— "When I think of what I ant - And what I used to was, I tear I've thrown myself away, Without sufficient cos."

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
