PHILADELPHIA'S JEWELS.
Bv a glance at the House of Represent
atives of Pennsylvania, when that body is
in session, we may see the character and
political complexion of the several portions
of this great State. One might expect to
find the various sections represented by
talent to sustain and protect the interests
of the many districts. Philadelphia, our
great commercial metropolis, with its many
and complicated interests, we might reason
ably expeet to -ee represented by ability
equal to the guardianship of such a city.
But, reader, what think you of the pair of
burly Irishmen, apparently 'just from the
sod,' who sit to the left of the Speaker,
strongly impregnated with the fumes of
bad whiskey and worse tobacco, and who
do the voting for Philadelphia city ! Do
you know that J. 11. Donnelly and James
Donnelly, both representing Philadelphia,
are Catholic Irish draymen, not over six
years in this country, and one of whom at
least, it is said, cannot read or write ?
A few days after the late election, some
of the friends of one of the Messrs. Don
ncllys called to congratulate him upon his
election, wl m lie delivered the following
eloquent spaach:
'Now, gintlemen, if 3-e come for a spaach,
bejabers ye'll get no spaach from me; brft
if 'tis my eha-rae-ter ye want to know, jest
call on Dennis O'Flagherty and he'll tell
you all about me. Noo, gintlemen, 'tis a
great banner to he alictcd to office by the :
great dimmecrat party —but I've done a
power of sarvlee for the party. I've been
sax years in Amereky and durin' all that
time I've been a votin' for the dimmecrat
party. I've got a p .wcr o' my countrymen
to vote for it too, and I've voted a power o'
times meself in them sax year?.'
Have we como to this, that an illiterate
Irish drayman, not long enough in the
country to understand even the nature of
the government, shall sit to legislate for
the great commercial interests of our .State"'
Are these the specimens of the men from
whom the democracy of Philadelphia are
compelled to select their Legislators? Must
this party submit to the behests of Popish
minions, and suffer such inflictions in order
to preserve harmony in its ranks and secure
success? Oh! shades of Penn, upon what
times have we fallen? Is the city of Broth
erly Love destitute of sons who can look
to her own vital interests?— American Her
ald.
The recent election in Philadelphia, it is
to be hoped, wili keep such jewels at their
drays.

BILL'S SARSIPARILM,

VFEW bi ttles of this .Sarsaparilla, put up

It has been a well established fact for years
past that Sarsaparilla, when pure and properly
prepared, was the only true panacea for ali di
seases originating from an impure state of the
blood, the use of mercury, intoxicating drinks,
evil habits in youth, barrenness, etc. We bold

j strictly scientific principles and of uniform

j out regard to price, and every pound, before
' being used, is subject to the strictest chemical
' tests, and its genuineness ascertained before
| being used. Bull's Sarsaparilla also contains
I the virtues of several other valuable medical
: roots together formi..g the best compound, and

§THE GREATEST
MEDICAL
DISCOVERY
OF THE AGE.
DR. KENNEDY, of Roxbury, has discovered
in one of our common pasture weeds a
remedy that cures
Uvery Kind of Humor
frointlie worst Scrofula down lo a common Pimple.
HE hastried itm over 1100 cases,and never failed ex
cept in two cases, (hotl, thunder humor.) lie has
now in his possession over two hundred certificates of
its virtue,all within twenty miles of Boston.
Two hottles are warranted to cure a nursing Sore
Month.
One', to three bouleswill cure the worst kind of Pimples
on I he Face
Two to three hottles will clean the system of Biles.
Two bottles are warranted to cure the worst Canker
in the Mouth and Stomach.
Three to five hottles ire warranted to cure the worst
case of Erysipelas.
One to i wo bottles are warranted to cure all Ifumor in
the eyes.
Two bottles are warranted to cure Running of the
E us and Blotches among ihe Hair.
Four to six bottles are warranted to cure corrupt and
running Ulcers.
One but lie will cure Scaly Eruption of the Skin.
Two to three bottles ate 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 cure the Balt
I? Iteum.
Five to eight bottles will cure the worst case of Hcrof
ula.
A benefit is always experienced from the first bottle,
and a perfect cure is wairanted when the above quanti
ty Is t . ken.
Reader, I peddled over :i thousand bnttlesof this in the
vicinity of Boston. 1 know the etfict of it u> every case.
So sure as water will extinguish fire, sosure will this
cure humor. I never sold a bottle of it but that sol.l an
oilier; after a trial it always speaks for itself. There
are two tilings about this herb that appears to me sur
prising; first that it grows in our pastures, in some | la
ees quite plentiful, and yet its value has never been
knew ii until I discovered it in lb 16—second, that it should
cure ill kinds of humor.
In order to give some idea of the sudden rise and great
popularity of the discovery, I will state lhat in April,
1553.1 peddled it and sold about six bullies per day—in
April, 1954. I sold over one thousand bottles per day of it.
Homp of the wholesale Druggists who have been in
business twenty and thirty yearn, say that nothing in the
annuls of patent medicines was ever like it. There is a
universal praise of it from all quarters
In niy oxv n practice I a I ways kept it strictly for humors
—but since its Introduction neageneral family medicine,
great and wonderful virtues have been found in it that 1
never suspected.
Several cases of epileptic fits—a disease which was
always considered incurable, have been cured by a few
hollies. O, what a mercy if it will prove effectual in all
is s of that awful malady—there are few who have
seen more of it than I have.
1 now of several cases of Dropsy, all of them aged
people,cured t-v it. For the various diseases of the Liv
er, sirk Headache, Dyspepsia, Asthma, Fever and Ague,
Pain in the Hide, Diseases of the Hpine, and particularly
in diseases of the Kidneys, 4cc., the discovery has done
more goodlhan any medicine ever know n.
No change of diet ever necessary—eat the best you
get and plenty of it.
DIRECTION* KOU USE. —Adults one table spoonful per
day—Children ..ver 10 years, dessert spoonful—Children
from 5 tnH years, tea-spoonful. As no directions ran be

Have in many cases defied the skill, heretofore, of the
best medical practitioners in the world, and many cases
have been abandoned as incurable.
Dr. J. WILLIAMS, Chemist and Pharmaceutist, after
studying closely the practices of Drs. Abernethy and J.
Johnston, England, and observing the nature of the dis
ease In all iis stages, during a sojourn In the southern
and western portions of the Untied Stales, where it pre
vails to a greater extent than elsewhere, procured from
South America certain roots and lierhs from which lie
prepared an "Elixir," which, after eighteen years' use in
private practice, has proved itself more efficacious in the
cure of Dyspepsy than any medicine thai has ever been
prepared in any age or clime for the same pur|iose.
Having submitted it, with an explanation of its compo
nents, to a number of physicians of Philadelphia, among
whom were the late Drs Joseph liarlshorne and J. C.
Morton lias received their entire approval, and many
of the medical faculty are now not only prescribing it for
their patients but are using it themselves, personally and
in their families. As a tonic it is unequalled, and its
properties tire of so invigorating a nature that tt is given
with perfect safety and success to the most tender infants.
The Elixir is very gradual, but certain in its action upon
the organs of digestion, the increased secretions of me
liver, pancreas and mucous membranes of the stomach,

Dr. J. Williams—Dear Sir—F <r fifteen years previous
to IS3I, 1 goffer- d so much from dyspepsy that I became
completely prostrated both in mind and bndv, and at
length became so weakened bcould not attend to my busi
ness, and was si"kiiig into a decline, and it WHS believed
I nevcrroiild r cover. The best medical aid was procured
f- r me, and every means resorted to without ant relief,
till I was advls-d to use your Elixir, and from itie time I
began taking it I gradually improved tilt I was completely
rest, red to health. The dreadful sufferings 1 endured
from dyspepsy I cannot describe; hoi ! am confident that
without the use of your Elixir I sh-uihl be in m\ grave.
I assert that I solemnly believe your Elixir has saved me
from an early death I continue now in the c joyment
of most excellent health. H. N. SPBRRV,
