SWs ccUaneous* A MILE IN THREE MINUTES. A horrible old rip of a horse belonging to a doctor was to be sold at auction. He was advertised as a "celebrated horse —kind in harness— had made his mile inside of three minutes— was bandy at the plough —and sold only because his present owner had uo further use for hint." On the day of sale a crowd gathered— among which was the doctor, whom the horse no sooner saw than he began to man ifest signs of uneasiness, which the auc tioneer called life and spirit! The first bid was seventy-five dollars, and soon run up to one hundred—one hundred and twenty-five —one hundred and fifty—at which price the nag was pronounced sold. The buyer paid the money, and harnessed the spirited animal to his wagon, informing the crowd that he was going to Lewistown, where he himself belonged. He had not been absent more than an hour when he was seen wending his way hack, not having got quite as far as Lewis town. lie told the auctioneer that he had returned to make some inquiries, which perhaps it would have been as well to have made before he bought the horse. " You say this animal has made his mile under three minutes ?" " Yes." 44 .May I be allowed to inquire how long since 44 Certainly—within three weeks." 44 One question wore —where did he do it ?"

THE GREATEST MEDICAL DISCOVERY OF THE AGE. DR. KENNEDY, of Roxbury, has discovered in one of our common pasture weeds a remedy that cures livery Kind of Humor from the w orst iScrofnhi itown to a common I'imple. TIB has tried it in over 110.) ce, and never failed ex- Cept in two cases, (Imih thunder humor.) || e has now in his possession over two hundred certificate* of its virtue,all within twenty miles of Ucwton. Two buttles are warranted to cure a nursing Nore Month. One tn three bottles will cure ihe word kimloi Pimples on the Face Two to three bottles will clean Ihe system of Biles. Two bottles are warranted to cure ihe worst Canker in the Mouth ami Htomarh Three to five bottles are warranted to cure the worst case of Erysipelas. One to two bottles are warranted lo cure all Humor in the eyes. Two hollies are warranted to cure Running of the Ear# and Blotches among he Hair. Four to six bottles are warranted to eure corrupt and running Ulcers. One bottle will cure Kcaly Eruption of the Skin. Tw oto three bottles are warranted to cure the worst case of Ringworm. Two to three bottles are Warranted to cure the most desperate case of Rheumatism. Three lo four bottles are warranted to eure the Salt Rheum. Five to eight bottles will eure the worst case of Scrof ula A benefit Is always experienced from the first bottle, and a perfect cure is warranted when the above quanti ty is t-ken. Reader, I peddled over a thousand bottles of this in the vicinity of B.elon. I know the elfett of it in every case So sure as water will extinguish fire, so sure will this cure humor. I never sold a bottle of it but that sold an oilier; afier a trial it always speaks for itself. There are two things about Ibis herb that appears to me sur prising ; first that it grows in our pastures, in some p| ces quite plentiful, and yet Us value has never been known until I discovered it In lb SO—second, that it should cure all kinds of humor In order to give some idea of the sudden rise and great popularity of the discovery, I will state that in April, 1803, I |ieddled it and sold about six bottles per day in April, 1854, Isold over one thousand bottles per dav of it. Some of the wholesale Druggist* who have been in business twenty and thirty years, say that nothing in the annats f patent medicines was ever like it. There is a universal praise of it from all quarters. lii my own practice I always kept it strictly for humors —lul since its introduction aa general family medicine, great and wonderful virtues have been found in it that 1 ■ever suspected. Several epileptic tits—a disease which was always considered incurable, have been cured by a few bottles. O, w hat a mercy if it will prove effectual in all cases of lbat awful malady—there are few who have seen more of it than I have. I know of several cases of Dropsy, all of them aged people, cured by it. For the various diseasesof the Liv er, Sick Headache. Dyspepsia, Asthma, Fever and Ague, Pain ill the !*ide, Disease* of the Spine, anil particularly In diseases of the Kidney*. Sec., the discovery has done more good than any medicine ever know n.

The practice of Dr. Ilnnter has long been, and still is, unbounded, but at the earnest solicitation of numerous persons, lie ha* been induced to extend his professional usefulness through the medium of his 'VADE MECUM.' It is a volume that should be in the hands of every fam ily in the laud, a* a preventive of secret vices, or as a guide for the aileviation of one of the most awful and destructive scourges ever visited upon mankind. The author argues most strongly against every species of se'.f-detilemenl, and warns parents and guardians in searching terms to guard the young of both sexes from the terrible consequences of their ignorance of physiolo gical laws and sexual impurities and irregularities. To those who have been already ensnared to the 'paths that take hold on death,' a clear and explicit way is shown by which they may secure a return of sound health and a regeneration of the soul from its tertible pollution. It is well known that thousands of victims are annual, ly sacrificed at the shrine of Quackery—especially those suffering from Venereal or Syphilitic diseases—Strictures, Seminal Weakness, Nervous Debility and the numerous maladies which spring directly from the indulgence of carnal passions and secret violations of Nature.
