Hut lest a simple statement of the fupto iqigty fail of convincing those who are daily imposed upon by certificates which owe their existence to the fertile imaginations of their writers, a living witness in the f>erson of Mr. Brooks (whose case is mentioned ke ow, )may be seen at our office, No. 1, Murray St., New York, where he has kindly consented to re main for a few days for ihe satisfaction of those who require occular demonstration. READ! READ!! READ!!! We, the undersigned, having visited Mr. Isaac Brooks, Jr., at the office of Messrs. Rowand & Walton, 376 Market St., Philadelphia, cousider his case the most remarkable one >ve have ever wit nessed or heard of. ' His disease was Scrofula, and terrible must have been his twelve years’ conflict with the destroyer. His palate, the entire roof of his mouth, nose, upper lip, and lower lid'of the right eye have been destroyed, his face nearly eaten up, and part ofthe jaw bone carried away. And yet we can give no description of his case ! Mr. B. informs us that in January last, the whole interior of his mouth, as well as most of his face, was a mass of deep and painful ulcers. On the 14th of January last, he commenced tak ing Dr. Cullen’s Indian Vegetable Panacea, which checked the disease in a few days, and from that time the cure has progressed without intermission. New flesh has supplied the place of deep ulcers, and his general health is restored. We are assured that in the treatment of Mr. Brooks’ case, no mercurials, ointments or caustic applications have been used—in fact, the Panacea alone has wrought this wonderful change. Charles L.

They neverfail to effect a cure when taken according to directions. No outward application cun permanently remove Rheumatic Puins from the system ; Linements sometimes act us a pa'iative for a short period, but there,is always danger in their use; they may cause the pain to leave one place for perhaps a viial part, or else where the pain will be moreacutp.

The symptoms of Liver Complaint, are uneasiness and pain in the right side, and soreness upon touch .immediately under the inferior ribs, inability to lie upon the left side, or ii nt all able, a dragging sensation is pro duced whichseriously affects respiration, causing very often ft troublesome cough; together with these symptoms we perceive a coaled longue acidi ty of the stomach, deficiency of perspiration, and sometimes a sympathetic pain in the right shoulder, with u great disposition 10 sleep, and depressing of spirits, and sometimes sores in the mouth or throat causing mucus to rise in the nostrils, Jaundice fre quently accompanies it, and aDropsey in the face; these symptoms if permitted tocontinue will even tually produce that most baneful disease Consump tion ; in fact a majority of such eases originate from the irritating cause above mentioned; Cathartic medicines must in every instance be avoided in the treatment for it. The symptoms of Dyspepsia are very various, those affecting the stomach alone are Nausea, Heartburn, loss of appetite, sometimes an excess of appetite, sense of fullness or weight in the stomach, sinking or fluttering in the pit of the stomach, feted eructations or sour rising from the stomach, &c. The sympathetic affections.are ve ry diversified. Dyspepsia devoid of a functional nature is without danger, but if arising from a dis ease of the stomach it is dangerous.

Make way for the young shrub’s.leafy mirth— Pass, from this bright world pass! There came a sigh from the withered boughs,' .A murmur, and a moan ; Like a rustling wind o’er the crisping snows In winter, was its tone. It seemed to say, “Alas! to think Of man’s ingratitude; That we from his sight are bid to,shrink — We, monarchs of the wood ! “ W.e used to be as green and fair 'As the trees ye cherish now, And a crown of leaves were wont to bear On every lofty bough.

Because they have grown old ?

Chock full of importance, like every true Briton, Who.knows British stars far outshine our poor luna; These cockneys found nothing their optics to hit on. But what was insipid or miserably puny. Compared with the English, : our horses were colts, Our oxen but goats —and sheep but a lamb ; And the people! (poorblockheads!)such pitiful dolts! Mere Hottentot children, contrasted with them ! Just then a black cloud in the west was ascending, The lightning flashed frequent, with horrible glare; While near fit more near, a fierce tempest portending The thunder rebellowed along the rent air. An oak, by the way side, Jove’s holt made a dash on, With a peal that knock’d horses fit cockneys all flat; There, hang you! cries Jonathan, quite in a passion, Have you got better thunder in England than that ? ittiscrilaneoue. Imprisonment for Debt, or The Lasv of Arrest, BY E. L. DCLVKR. Once on a time there lived at Hamburg a certain merchant by the name of Meyer; he was a good little man; charitable to the poor, hospitable to his friends,'and so rich that he was extremely respected in spite of his good nature. Among that part of his property which was vested in other people's hands, and called “debts,” was the sum of five hundred pounds owed to him by the captain of an English vessel. The debt had been so long con tracted, that the worthy Meyer began to wish for a new investment of his capital. He accordingly re solved to take a trip to Portsmouth, in ; which Cap tain Jones was then residing, and take that liberty which in my opinion should, in a free country, never be permitted, viz: the liberty of applying for his money.. ... Our worthy merchant one bright morning found himself at. Portsmouth; he was a stranger in that town, but .not altogether unacquainted with the English language. He lost no time in calling on Capt. Jones. “And vat." said he to a 4 man whom he asked to conduct him to the Captain's house, “vat. ish dat fine vessel yonder." “ She U the Royal Salty,” replied the man “bound for Calcutta, sails to-morrow; but. there’s Capt. Jones' house, sir, he'll tell you all about it.” The merchant bowed and knocked at the door of a red brick house; door green, brass knocker.— Gaptain Jones was a.tall man; he wore a blue jacket without skirts, he hud high cheek bones, small eyes, and fiis whole appearance was eloquent of .what is generally . called the bluff honesty of seamen. Capt. Gregory Jones seemed somewhat discon certed at seeing his friend; lie begged for a little time.. The merchant looked grave: three years had already elapsed—The Captain demurred—the merchant pressed—the Captain blustered—and the merchant, growing angry, began to threaten. All of a sudden Capt. Jones’ manner changed; he seemed to recollect himself, begged pardon, said he could easily procure the money, desired the mer chant to go back to his inn, and promised to call on him in the -course of tfte day. Mynheer Meyer went homeland ordered ah excellent dinner. Time pqssed, his friend papie not.

Where was Mynheer Meyer, in a strange town, to get bail ? Mynheer Meyer went to prison. “Dative a strange vay of paying a man his mon ish !” said Mynheer Meyer. In order to while away time, our merchant, who was wonderfully social, scraped acquaintance with some of his fellow prisoners. u Vat be you in prison V’ said he to a stout re spectable looking man, who seemed in a violent passion; u for vat crime V’ “I, sir! crime!'’ quoth the prisoner; “sir, I was going to Liverpool, to rote at the election, when a friend of the opposing candidate had me arrested for two thousand pounds.

He said he heard a-noise; that Mrs. Mallen was cryin' “mur der?” that he went to see what was the matter, when she complained of being beaten by’ her hus band, whom he then arrested. ‘ Well, I now discharge him,” said the Recorder. • It.is the woman that should have been.arrested; and if I hear any more from her, I will bind her to keep the peace.’ * Mrs. Mallen then left the couirt, threatening to give Miss Martin "jessy” when she would next meet her.— N. O. Picayune. Frenchman and the Horse Jockey. A Frenchman in the country, who was little 1 ac quainted with horse jockies or horse flesh, was grievously taken in by a cheat, in die purchase of a steed. He gave one hundred dollars for a miser able jade of an old mare that had been fattened up to kill; and she turned out to be ringboned, spav ined, blind, and wind-broken. The Frenchman pretty soon discovered that’he had been used up in trade, and went to request the jockey to take back the animal and refund the money. ‘Sure,’ said-he, ‘l'ave fetch back de mare-horse vat yoti sell me, and I ; vant de money in my pock et back.’ j •Your pocket! book!’ returned the jockey; feign ing surprise; ‘'l don’t understand you.’ ‘ You no stand under me!’ exclaimed the French man, beginnings .to gesticulate furiously; ‘ you no stand under me.? Sare, you be one grand rascalle— you lie like Sam*—like Sam—vat you call the leetle mountains?* y ‘ Sara Hill, I suppose you mean** ; Oui T monsieur—Sam de Hill—y’es, sare, you lie like tico Sam Hill. You sell me one mare-horse for one hundred dollars—he no vort one hundred cents, by gar!' - * What's the matter with the beast?’ ‘Mattair! Sacre! Mattair do you say ? Yy, he's all mattair—he' no go at all—he got no leg, no feet, no vind—he blind like von stone vid his eye —he no see nobody at all vid that eye—he go v-heeze-o, v-heeze-o, like one forge hammer bel lows; he go limp lump; he no go over at all the ground; he no travel two miles in tree day!—Oui, sare, lie is von grand sheat: you must take him and fund the money back.’ 1 Refund the money! Oh, no; I could’nt think of such a thing. 1 ‘ Vat! you no fund me back the money? You sheaty me vid one hundred dollaire horse dat no can go at all.’ ‘ I never promised that he would go.' ‘By gar! vat' is one horse good for ven he no go! He is no better as one dead ahackasa, by gar. ViU you. sare, take .the mare-horse back, and give me my money what I pay for him V ‘ No, sir, 1 cannot; ! twas a fair bargain; your eyes were your market, as we gentlemen of the turf say. : • Gentleman de turf! you be no gentleman at all; you be no turf. Mon Dieu t you be von grand Turk; von sacre dam deceptione. You sheat your own born modder; you play von rascalle trick on your own gotten fadder.

Itdiablt; he letch you no lime quicker by gar.’ Failing to obtain redress of the jockey, the poor Frenchman sent his ‘ mair-horse * to an,auctioneer to be sold. But the auctioneer seems to have been as‘great a rogue as the jockey, for he took care that the fees for selling should eat up the price he got for the steed. ‘ By gar,’ said the Frenchman, when relating the f story. ‘ I be sheat} 7 all around. De Shocky-horse, he sheaty me in trade; and de hnuctioneer, he sheaty me in dispose of the animalle; he sell me de mair-horse Tor ton dollaire; and by gar, he sharze me ’leven dollaire for sell him.
