OLDEN days no honor was more coveted than the prerogative of Roman citizenship, " to be a Roman , was great er than to be a king" yet how few and alight were the privileges and inriunni ties of. the. Roman citizen when compar ed with those which are the birthright of the American freemen. Amerioan citizenship differs' widely from that of other nationalities. The relation which we sustain to our govern ment is peculiar, and from this relation arises our privileges and responsibilities. Ours is a government of the people; we, through our representatives, make the laws, and we, as the ultimatp Court of Appeals, decide all questioias of public policy. The privilege of exercising the eleotive franchise, is one of the dearest of the rights, 'and one of the most glori ous of the prerogatives of the American citizen . . The little paper ballot, which he annually deposits, has a potent voice whose influence is felt in the administra tion of the affairs of his 'government. The rulers in our country are chosen from among the people, and for their official acts, are ameniable to them, hence thay are, as is often said, rather their servants than their rulers. As soon as they cease to be faithful exponents of •the will of their constituents, the same rower that elevated them to seats of honor and trust summarily deposes them for their unfaithfulness and dishonesty. -Few appreciate this privilege of voting and its consequent respbusibi4ty 'as they should. It should be regarded as a sol emn duty not to be performed lightly, but only after the most careful reflection 'and searching inquiry. One of The necessary prequisites to a right perform ance of this duty is intelligence ; a man must be well informed with respect to the pending iSSILIS before be is fitted in telligently- to pass a final judgment upon them - at the ballot box. Some men -so lightly appreciate• the privilege •of suffratie. that for a _trivial tuse - they will . allow au 13leegorl.' to pass -without votinvliowever pregnant and important the issnos may le. Others tell us that politics have become so cor rupt that they will have nothing to do with tbera, and they refrain entirely from the exercise of the franchise. Much of evil has crept into the administration of oui s public affairs from the very fact, that good christian mon have in the past held themselfes too much aloof from primary meetings and caucuses, and allowed the control of these meetings and nomination of public officers to come into the hands of corrupt, and unprincipled men, -Vot ing is a christian duty; only in this way by the firm exercise 'of our prerogative as American citizens, can we correct public 'mismanagement and check the vaunting and unbridled ambition of reek less rulers.

S. elieopsns, an eminent Egyptian physician. He had long seen and felt the want of some reme dy which would strike at the root of disease, and so prevent much of 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 lie was lead to think and experiment; and after ten years of study and labor, ho presented to his fellow-man the wonderful Zingari Bitters. The effect of this prep aration in the prevention and cure of disease, was so marvellous and astonishing, that the most flat tering marks of royal favor were bestowed upon hini who discovered it. His name was placed'upen the Roll of Nobles, and a gold medal with the fol lowing inscription—Dr, Cheopsus, the Public Bene factor—was presented to him by the Viceroy. The preparation has beep used in several epidem icS of oholcua, bothile b preventive' and curative measure, and with such great success, that it has been introduced into nearlyall thegeneral hospitals of the old world. • Th 6 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 pre : . tect us againstthis terrible disease should bs freely and persistently used. All pathologists now agree that the cholera poison acts on the excretory organs, and keeps them in working order, must prevent a sutlicientAccumula tion of the poison to exert its terrible effects on the organism. This is true not only ot cholera, but of nearly all other maladies, especially the different forms of fever.. The Great. Zingari Bitters is just such a remedy us the above conditions require. Its acts on the organs of excretion and secretion keeping up aper feet balance between them.• This Bitters is com posed entirely of roots and herbs, so nicety con cocted that every organ' is'acted upon and put in tone. Its taste is pleasant and its effects prompt and Numerous cases of the following disease have been cured by it: Cholera, Diarrhma, Dysentery, Typhoid and Typhus Fever, Fever, Ague, Nervous DbEbbi lity, Anaemia, Female Irregularities; Dyspep sia,Flatuleney, Co;fe, Scrofula, de.

Cured 16y 191ishler's herb Bitters When Mishler's Bitters were first intro duced to the public the proprietor did not feel juStified in recommending it as a spe cific for Cholera:. During the fall at 1865, Dr. Mishler received the following' note from • Jacob L: Baker, Esq., of Lancaster Pa.,_member of the Philadelphia Ciallege of Pharmacy. Mr. Baker had a great deal of experience in the treatment of Cholera is a druggist of sixteen years standing,was Hospital Steward in the Jefferson Hospital, Philadelphia, for three years, and is withal a gentleman of undoubted integrity and one in whose statement the most implicit confidence caa be placed : Lancaster, November 3d, 1865. Dr. Mishler—Dear Sir:—Knowing that the Cholera with its dread fu 1 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 - for all diseases of this kind," as the Bitters you now making I request you to prepare such a quality of your bitter as would suit all 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. BAKER Being thus urged, and having noticed the Bitters were constantly curing the most violent cases of Diarrhoea, Cholera Morbus and kindred complaints, Dr. Mishler at last offered his compounds as a cure for Cholera The result has exceeded his most sanguiue expectations and fully justifies all that Mr. Baker 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 ou some absurd theory.— For the purpose of showing that Mishler's Herb Bitters will cure Cholera we give below a few facts, All into]] igen t persons who have investi gated the origin Of cholera, agree that it is caused by poison.] ntrod need and generated into the system by impure water, damp ness, filth and over-crowded rooms 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 prevent it,it 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: about the middle of April with cholera a board a number of the passengers having died during the voyage with this complaint. Among the passen gers were a family named Schmith, from Baden ' Germany. This family was at tackedwith cholera. Fortunately for them they had friendi living in this city (Lan caster. Pa.,) who knew thevirtues of Mish ler's Bitters and who procured a bottle and sent it to the Schmith family. 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 reached the Schmiths. On its arrival aboard the Oda, Henry Schmith and Christ. Schmith were both laboring under choleric symp toms: Mrs. Marcia Schmitt], wife of the foamer was very bad, not expected to re cover, and a son had died of the dread com plaint and had been buried theday previ ous. It was in this plight a bottle of Mish ler's Bitters, sent forth like an Angel of Mercy found the poor Schmith family.— Henry Schmith was the first to try it, and so instantaneous was the relief he experi enced that he gave it to his wife 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-two says.— The Schmiths proceeded to their relatives in Lancaster, and at au early opportunity called on Dr. Mishler to express their grati tude for the timely relief they had found in his Bitters. MI- Henry Schmith stated that all the compounds the doctors had given him did no good, but that one glass of Mishler's Bitters made him feel like a new man, warming his whole system, giving him a healthful heat and causing him to perspire freely. His statement was substantially :was .su i bstantially . as given abbve. and -hetartlr,•? said' that if the doc tors had not kept the first bottle from reaching him, his son would yet hrye been living. Mrs. Schmith was"still weak from the effect Of cholera, but the continued use of the Bitters were most surely restoring her accustomed vigo.ty It is not to be expected that regular M. Ps. will admit that any remedy not to be found in the Dispensatory will cure Chol era or any other complaint, but candor compels Dr. D. H. Bissell of the Cholera Hospital ship " Falcon" to admit that he believes Mishler's Bitters to be a " very good Tonic." In reply as to a case of Bit ters that was sent to him by a well known gentleman of Lancaster, he writes as fol lows : • Hospital Ship Falcon, Quarantin, New York,June 7th, ISM. George S. Rowbotham, 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 me for trial &e., that I gave them to the convalescents in Hospital. I believe them to be a very good tonic Bitters, well adapted to all cases requiring Tonic remedies. D. 11. BISSELL, Physician, hospital Ship "Falcon." This letter from 1)r. Bisselljustafter the regeption of 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 crows o emigrant and merchant vessels that arrive in the Port of New York from foreign con n 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 Schmitb family—who while iu the Steamer Vir ginia, wore under Dr: Bissell's control, shows what the Bitters have done and can do. Another case of Cholera cured by Mish lor,s herb Bitters is that of Mr. Pearsol of York county, who,after suffering severely from all the symptons of Cholera, finally became collapsed and while in this state, (the doctors stating that he waE beyond re lief) a friend administered freely, Mishler's Bitters. The effect was instantaneous ; heat was _generated in the body, perspira tion was induced and after using one bst tie Mr. Pearsol was entirely restored. Mishler'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, &c., 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/Berb Bitters. The above proves this to be the fact in Cholera and the certificate of Mr.lthinehart proves that Mishler's Billers will cure the bite of a poisonous snake : Lancaster, July 4th, 1865. Mr. B. Mishler—Sir:—About eightweeks 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 my hand swelled: to a very ,large size, and the poison appeared to be work ing up my arm.- I suffered great pain in my hand and arm; I had to quit work and was afraid I would be compelled to have my hand amputated. I came to you, and by your advice washed my band and arm with your Herb Bitters at the same time taking it inwardly. In eleven days I was able to go to work again. The poison was all drawn out and Mishler's Herb Bitters was the medicine or application that I made use of. Mr. Christian Burns, a near neighbor of mine, wept out a day or two after to the place where I Was bitten, and killed what I believe was the same snake that bit ino.as he caught within five yards of the spot where I was bitten. It proved to be what is dalkid a copper snake; at any rate, whether it was the same one that bit me or riot—one thing is certain -that your Bitters cured the bite of a snake in my case for which whichlshall ever be thank ful, as 'believe it was the means of saving my hand. ' „ I shalt be pleased - to personally satisfy any one of the truth of the above. . • - Yours. JACOB RINEHART. Low Street, Lancaster. For Sale bY—J. C.
