This `invention abolishes' the necessity, of 'pass— ing between two cars in order. to. shackle' them. It is very simple, in design, of trifling,cosP, and easily- adjusted to the car. • A car is -unshackled by a single movement of a lever at either side of the car. The lever is attached to an iron rod which passes across the end of the car, and is itself attached to the coupling Pin.' A turn of the lever draws the pin, ' and another turn of the lever leaves the pin in sulh a position that the car, will _shackle itself whenever another car, hay-. ing'a link, is shoved against it.

Pa. a member of the Philadelphia College Of Pharmacy. - Mr.l3akerhad a great deal of• eXperiencein the treatment of Cholera is a druggist of sixteenyears standing,was Hospital Steward iii the JeffersonHcispital, 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, 1565. 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 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 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: ' ' , 670,108,37 Yours respectfully. • - JACOB L. BAKER. Being thus urged, and having nuticed the' Bitters were constantly curing the most violent cases of Diarrhcea, Cholera Morbus and kindred complaints,Dr. Mishler at last °tiered his compounds as a cure for Cholera The result has exceeded his most sanguine exp'ectations 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 on some absurd theory.—, Foi 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 dholera; agree that it is caused by poison introduced 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 nemplamt. Among the passen gers were a family named Schmith, from Baden, Germany. This family was at tackedWth cholera. Fortunately for them they had friends- living in this city I ,an caster. Pa.,) who knew thevirtues ofMish ler's Bitters and who procured a bottle mid sent it to the Schniith family. ' When this package arrived at Quarantine,the doctorS examined it and confiscated the contents. Another bottle was procured and packed in a more secure manner: itsafely reached the Sebmiths. On its arrival aboard - the Vir ginia, Henry Schmith and Christ. Schmith were both laboring under choleric symp toms: Mrs. Marcia Schmith, wife of the former 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 Sclunith family.— Henry Schmith was the first to try it, and so instantaneous was the relief he experi enced that he gave itto 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 an early opportunity - called on Dr. Mishler to express their grati tude for the timely relief they had found in his Bitters. Mx. Henry Schmith stated that all the compounds the doctors had given him did no good, but that, one glass of Mishler's sitters made him l'eel like a new 'man; warming his -whole system, giving him a healthful heat and causing him to perspire freely. His statement was substantially was substantially as , riven above, and he Vrther said that if the doc.-, tore had not- -opt the first bottle frotl , reaching hint; is son would yet hrve beei living. MrS. Sclunith was still weak from the elfect of cholera, but the continued uso of the Bitters were most surely restoring her accustomed vigor. It is not to be expected that regular 31. Ds. will admit that any remedy not to be found in the Dispensatory will cure Chol era or tiny 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 1 gentleman of Lancaster, he Writes as fol -1 lows : . i • -•- Hospital Ship Falcon, Quarantin, New York,.l une 7th, 1566. 1 . George S. Rowbotham, Esq.— Dear Sir : $2,000,000 00 3,596,022 00 130,385 13 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. IL BISSELL, Physician, Hospital Ship "Falcon.'.' This letter' from Dr. BisSolljust after the reception 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 crews o, emigrant and merchant vessels that arrive in the Port of New York from foreign coati 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 Schmith family—who while in the ' Steamer Vir ginia, were under Dr. Bissell's control; shows what 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,after suffering severely from all the symptons of Cholera, finally became collapsed and while in this state, - (the doctors stating that he wm beyond re lief) a friend ailniinistered freely,ll.llshler's Bitters. The -effect -was instantaneous ; heat was generated - in the body, perspira tion was inducett and 'after using one bat tle Mr. Pearsol Was entirely restored. - , Mishler's Bitters cures Cholera by coun teracting.the poison which is ,the cause - of the - diseasb: - PoiSotiiin the system;whether generated' . l4 , air, filth,- &c., as in Cholera; •or •introduced :by- the -bite - of a venomous snake or ,mad dog will' be ex- Pelled 'and - bad'symPtons allayed by the use of Michler's Herb Bitters. - The proveSlhis, to be the fact in Cholera andthe certificate of-Mr.Rhinahart Proves that Mishler's Billers will ,cure the bite of a poisonous snake: •• ' ' Lancaster, July 4th, ISGS. Mr. B. Mishler—Sir:—About eight weeks since rwas bitten nil the .left band by a snake,- but- at-the time did not know of what species 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 hadtequit , work and was afraid_l wenid.be compelled to have my hand:impute:ed. came 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,again. -The poison . was all drawn outand-Mishler's 'Herb Bitters' was the only.medicine or application that I'made use of. ' -Mr: Christian Burns, a .near neighborlofmine, - went out a day or two after to the place where. Iwas bitten, and killed; what 'believe: was the same snake that bit me as he -caught withirEfive -yards of-the spot where I was, bitten. -It proved to be what is•called acopper snake; at any rate, whether it was same one that bit uio or 'not--,one thing- is • certain— that yotir Bitters,cured the bite, pf a snake in nayfiiise,for:which I shalt ever be thank ful, as a beliey:e4tovai . the means of saving. . , .
