TiMe to Cut Timber, &c.
the Weekly Sun of the 27th of March, an in
quiiy is made by a correspondent, of Jacksonville,
to know which is the proper time of the year
to Cut timber, to last the longest, and which end of
the post should be set in the ground, the way or
reverse way it grew. In reply to the inquiry, I
will contribute my experience and information on
thel subject.
I commenced millwrighting in May, 1829, and
continued at the business until is4r). During the
tiMe, or in fact from 1817 until the present time,l
haute l noted the season of the year when timber was
felled, its kind, quality, the soil it grew on, and its
dinkbility, when exposed to wet and dry. I also,
dulling the time, made all the inquiry I possibly
could, of the aged and experienced. My informa
tion and experience is at your disposal for the ben
efit) of your correspondent.
4 assisted in felling, putting in, and taking out,
after they were decayed, i 5 whito oak and swamp
°all mill-shafts. Seven of them were old, sound
tre e s, with the annual rings or grains small. They
were felled in the winter season; average durabili
ty 6) years. Eight were of young; sound trees, of
a (luick growth ; the annual rings or grains larger;
5 were felled in February, 3 in the summer. Av
eMge durability of those felled in February, 12
years. Average durability of, those felled in the
summer, 8 years. I could discover no difference
in 'he quality of the timber or the soil they grew
on. The balance were of trees decayed either at
the top or bottom. The decayed parts were taken
oft Average durability it years.
Seventeen forebays, or trunks, were pat in, and
taken out after decayed, during the time. Three
we're of seasoned timber, of old sound white oak
trees felled in February. Average durability 21
years. Two were of sound young rock oak timber,
fetid in March and April. Average durability 12
years: Five were of old sound white oak timber,
felled in the summer. Average durability, 19 years.
Six were of young white oak timber—the timber
of [3 wet e cut in thekinter and 3 in the summer.
'Plose felled in the winter decayed in 9 years; those
felled in the summer decayed in 6 years. I could
diAcover no difference in the appearance of the tim
be'r, or the quality of the soil it grew on. One was
of timber - of trees part decayed, either at the bot-
torn or top, decayed parts taken off, decayed in 5
ydars. Twenty water wheels were put up, and
taken down, after decayed and worn out. Ten
were of timber of old sound white oak 'trees.—
Average durability, 18 years. Eight were of tim
ber of sound white oak trees—part was felled in
the winter and part in the summer. The average
ddrability was 9 years. Those felled in the winter
aVeraged 4 years more service. I could discover
no difference in the appearance of the trees, or the
edit they grew on. Two were of timber of trees
p4rt decayed; although the decayed parts were ta
ken off. Durability, 6 years.
Nine cog wheels were made of timber of young
mlhite oak trees. They took the dry rot, and broke
Awn in 9 years. I made a number of cog wheels
of seasoned timber of sound old trees, felled in the
winter. They are yet in use, and appear perfectly
sound. I have repaired mills in which the pit gears
tippeared very sound. On inquiry, I was inlormed
that the timber of which they were made, was of
tilt' 'sound trees, felled in the winter, and seasoned
before used.
I have - placed timbers, of old sound trees, of
young sound trees, and of part decayed trees, of
Ivinter felled and of summer felled, where they
were equally exposed to wet and dry, or dampness,
as posts, sills, Wall plates, ground sills, forebays or
trunks, in water pits; and cos , '
pits by the side of
each other, equally exposed to wet and dry, or
dampness, and the result has invariably correspon
ded with the above statements. A few years since
I noticed a fence,
the rails of which appeared very
much weather beaten. On inquiry of an aged
kentlemair I was informed that the rails were made
upwards of 50 years, and that they were made of
old white oak trees, felled in the winter.
Near the same time I saw a post and rail fence,
which I was informed had been standing 50 years,
and was made of timber of old white oak trees,
felled in the winter.
Timber intended for sills, posts, sleepers or any
other purpose, if exposed to wet or dry, or damp-
I viess, should be split or sawed through the heart or
'centre. It will be from 30 to 50 per cent. more
durable. And sills, and wall plates, or ground sills,
if raised by means of stones or slats of wood, to ad
mit a free access of air, will be more durable than
if laid in mortar or on the ground. All timbers
should, if possible, be well dried or seasoned before
used for any purpose. Timber to be Cx - jiosed to
wet and dry should by all means be divested of its
bark and that part called sap, before used. In se
lecting trees to be taken for girders, posts, plates
joist, window frames, door frames, perlines, or raft
ers, none should be taken of crooked or twisting
trees, for if dressed straight and out of twist before
used, when they dry and season they will spring
and twist. I have known tenons break, mortices
split, pins break, and floors and ceilings disfigured
- by the twisting or springing of such timbers.—
Trees that grow on goosoils, or stand singly in
meadows or fields, or at such distances from tree
to tree as not to rob each other of—their food, gen
erally have large rings or grains, me of a quick
grots"th, with the annual rings or grains small, such
as generally grow on poor soils, or where a number
of other trees are growing, or the north side of the
- hill.
The smaller the rings or grains the less water
will be absorbed. Sap isadestructive, and dryness
favorable, to the durability of timber. Trees in
the winter season are more devoid of sap thanwhen
in a state of vegetation. Timber saturated with
sap when felled, becomes porous when seasoned;
and if exposed to wet and dry, or dampness, will
take the dry rot much sooner than in winter. It
is then devoid of sap, its fibre close., and its texture
firm.
Timber of trees decayed either at the bottom or
top, should at all times be avoided where it will be
exposed to dampness, unless the expense of repair
ing it will be small.
In reply to the inquiry respecting posts, I have
made no experiments and knowr of none, but have
frequently heard persons say if posts were put in
the ground the reverse way they grew, they would
be more durable. I have seen Fosts of old and of
young trees put in the ground at the same time.—
Those of old trees have alway's been (rem 20 to
40 per cent more durable. Psts should be., if
possible, well dried or seasoned before used. I have
cut, had cut, and seen cut, fort mill works, other
purposes, and lire wood, hickory timber, at all sea
sons of the year; and in every instance, unless cut
in the summer season, the worms would cut or
powder it ; and in many instanc es render it useless
for many purposes. I have seen fire wood very
much injured by them. ' I. B.

The Ins Isibte Harp,
I „
OR TILE GIFT OF TUE Alt tilstrEttiNo ./I.7CGELS.
There are lessons enough foil us mortals to learn
it may be, from that which is real; from the truths
that we know and the scenes that are spread out
to our sight as we go on in our pilgrimage. The
blue sky is over our heads; the our, shines brightly
upon us; and though clouds and storms may hide
it fur a day, it shines again mo re gratefully when
they are passed. TK , fields with their grass and
flowers are every summer to lie eeen.—Trees are
clothed in verdure, and if the ore scatter its leaves
to autumn winds, and the beautyof the other with
ers under the frost, it is only to', be decked anew in
the spring; and all, all would teach us this one les
son, for they remind us of one God—to be better
and holier.
But we heed them not, often!' The voice in them
is too still and small to be heard above the din and
bustle of lite, and though in Pen it sounded to
those happy ones before their fall like a heavenly
melody, and numberless harps were attuned at once
in unison, their strings are, all discordant now, or
they are well nigh silent. Let us listen then to
other voices, and though from this we learn no other
lesson, we may remember conslience oftener, as the
monitor whose voice, if not the harp tones, we are
permitted to hear.
Over the couch of a sleeping child, hovered its
ministering angel. The thoughts of that bright
visitant were upon the future destiny of his charge,
who slept in innocence bene'ath him. Through
the years of what might be a long life on earth, they
ran forward, and as deep a sha'cle as ever rests upon
an angel's brow came over him, while he remem
bred the sin and temptation (through which this
young immortal must pass before he could enter the
celestial city. But, as if glad thoughts had dispelled
the sad, at once that cloud pasped away; and were
it permitted mortal ears to hear the angel's voice,
the happy spirit would have been heard to murmur,
'This child shall have a guide through earth's trials
and darkness, for over his head will I place a harp
whose music shall fall upon no ear but his own, and
by it shall he judge whether h life meets Heaven's
approval.
A smile played about the lids of the sleeper as
if he were in a pleasing dream—and he awoke.
It was morning. A land mother bent over this
same darling child. He thrett his arms lovingly
around her and kissed her, ant 'with his soft voice
said, "Now mother, tell me again that morning pray
er you told me yesterday, foil I would thank our
Father who has kept me thEci i igh the night. But
hark! Are you singing mother, or what is that mu
sic I hear V' No, child, you hear no music, unless
it be the bird's song; for they awoke before you."
But she knew not that sweet notes, intended only
for that loved one, had come from the invisible harp,
and as they soon ceased the child was satisfied to
inquire farther.
He went out intd the fields to play, A butterfly
flitted across his path. Merrily he shouted as he
ran after it, and so eager wasl i he in pursuit. that he
had heard not the low, sad tones of that invisible
harp which sounded again, until he caught the trail
beautiful thing; but as unintentionally he crushed
it in his little hand, he let it tall at once to the ground
shapeless and dead as it were, for he heard those'
notes dying away on the bree6 mournfully. And
still they sounded as he took the crushed insect into
his hand,.and smoothed its col B red wings, and watch
ed the shining dust upon themi and tears fell as he
saw he could fly no more, arid rememered that he
had killed it; for childhood! is not heartless, but
weeps at death.—Yllid you hear music ?",he asked
of a playmate by his side. "Only the hum of the
bees and the song of the bird) that has just flew by
us ," was the answer. And he began to think the
harp was meant only for him, for he had often be
fore this heard it when no others did, though they
were near; and he remember d now that it was sad
only when he was sinning.
A poor beggar boy passed the door. While the
boy asked him if he would rest, for he looked wea
ry, and ran to bring him br4ti, he heard the notes .
of joyous music over him, and then he knew that:
heaven spoke approval of th6'deed in the tones of
the invisible harp.
Again he sported in the fillds. Harsh words were
spoken by a playmate. and he would have retorted
the same to him that spokelthem.but the harp sent
forth mournful notes. How could he allow other
than kind words to be spoken? The friends were
reconciled, and glad notes came to him on the air;
for "a soft answer turneth away wrath''—and is
not this heavenly?
Years passed. He whom the ministering angel
had been permitted to bless wish such a monitor,
had well learned that as he acted good or bad, so
i's notes sounded. Bitter trials were before him.
The destroyer took oue whom the youth had loved.

existence was bound.up his own, was to be the vie

her. The parting moment came. She gave him
a last look of affection—a last embrace—and died.
In the depth of grief he repi.oachel his. God that he
was called to make a sacrifice so trying. Oh, how
loud, and plaintive, and aionizing almost, seemed
the hard tones then, until the stricken one bowed
in submission and implored forgiveness, and there
came a soothing melody, breathing gently in his ear

had been thus the angers care, had nearly finished

were soon to be united. The earth born, heaven-des

The invisible harp had been his guide to acts of

She was a gentle, quiet girl,
With darkly waving hair
Just parted in her siiiple way,
On a forehead low and fair,
No flush of brilliant loveliness
Wan sparkling on her face,
But something tranqbil and subdued,
And touching in its grace.
She seldom smiled, but then she brought
No cloud on otheqs glee,
And ever on her pale young brow,
A shadow seemed, to be;
And then her voice was very sad,
In its soft and earnest tone,
With a low and winning eloquence,
And a sweetness all its own.
Some hidden sorrow, on the past
A datkness seemed to throw;
She never spoke of early ties,
Or of pleasures long ago;
But in the daily common cares,
She calmly met hbr share,
As one who had nolshrinkings from
The trials lire must bear.
We miss the kindness of her voice,
And the beauty or her brow ;
,And the sweetest words we ever heard
Are silent to us now.
She never spoke thi quiet grief,
Whose blight so 'early fell—
She had been gayer once they said,
But loved too long and well.

Expedition to Japan
The Journal des Debuts devotes an article of some
length and much ability to the Japan Expedition
now projected by the Government of the U. Staten
The letter of President Fillmore to the Emperors
Japan, published very generally in the newspapers
some time ago, announces the pacific character of
the expedition. Mr. Webster 's letter of instructions
to the Commander of the Squadron gives further
particulars as to the special objects contemplated
—all of which have reference to the future exten
sion of our commerce in the Pacific and to the pros
pective establishment of lines of steamers from Cal
ifornia to China.
The organization of this expedition has produced
a decided sensation in Europe. It is looked upon
as the first step in an onward progress which must
lead to great results. In this view the Paris journal
above named thus speaks of it :
The English and the Americans are not simplY
conquerors; they are missionaries of humanity, ol
civilization, of the laws of nations, of sociability'
or, in one word, of Christianity. At bottom of it
is the wrestling of the Old World with the New—
the battles of the religions of antiquity with that
of our days. The Chinese and the Japanese are un
willing to acknowledge the rest of the human race;
foreigners are to them both barbarians and enemies;
they close their ports against them, and kill them
when the tempest throws them into their hands; it
is the principle of the Jews, who would not know
the Gentiles; it is the principle of the Pagans, who
Called strangers and enemies by one and the same
name—hostess. On the other hand is the principle
which says that all men are the children of one
family, and mutually owe each other aid in time of
need, that no nation can close its harbors to the
shipwrecked mariner, nor withhold from him ne
cessary assistance: that hospitality is a duty as asy
lum is a right; that no people is privileged to with
draw itself from the general brotherhood and a
common solidarity; that all are bound to fulfil to
wards each other the duties which each and all may
also claim and exact. It is the principle of Chris
tianity, the principle of charity, of fraternity and
sociability.
'•Such is the struggle soon to take place in the
old Asiatic world. It is the struggle of progress
with immobility; of the spirit with the letter; of
pardon with the law. The issue is not fora moment
doubtful. What the Americans are'at this moment
doing, is the realization of the dream of Christopher
Columbus. It is known that Columbus, when he
undertook his voyage of discovery, expected to land
upon the opposite shore of Asia. He sought a new
route to the East, and when he disembarked upon
Guanahani, thought himself arrived at the Indies.—
It was the New World he had met in his way.—
Christian civilization has rested there for a moment,
on her passage home. She took possession of the
land and planted the cross upon it: And now be
hold her commencing again her eternal pilgrimage
and continuing the circle of her revolution. From
the New World, where she has recovered her face,
she starts with renewed vigor to burst upon the
world of antiquity, whose dissolution she will ac
complish.
" It will need many, many years, for the success
of this work of conquest, of absorption and assimi
lation. We see nothing, either begin or finish, un
der our eyes, because we are infinitesimally little.
Ten and twenty years, what are these impercepti
ble figures in the sum of centuries t But it will be,
in times to come, the spectacle, perhaps the most
poetic and epic in history—that of these two peo
ple, (English and American,) children or one and
the same race, and of one and the same God, pas
sing across continents and seas, to en et and mingle
in one final embrace. They are in march. and noth
ing can stop them more. 'll, breach is open, and
by it shall flow the wave of the. Scriptures. of which
it has been said that it will renew the face of the
earth."
It is of course impossible to say in advance what
sort of reception the President's overtures may mee
with at the hands of the Japanese authorities.—
Insult and contumely may be offered—in which
event the pacific character of the Expedition may be
compelled to undergo a change, to such an extent at
least as to repel and to chastise any affronts which
barbarian stupidity and malevolence may presume
to venture upon.
But whether pacific or hostile; whe:her the facil
ities solicited for our commerce in the seat of Japan
shall hicourteously grantel, or whether unprovo
ked aggressions shall call for the retribution of an
avenging hand—in either case it is quite manifest
that this movement towards Japan is but the begin
ning of a series of steps; the tendency and the in
evitable result of which must be to promote inter-
course with the Japanese, and to impair that policy
of exclusion which has so long shut out those peo
ple from communication with the Christian world.
Occupying an important position on the route o f
t rade between Our Pacific coast and the shores of
China and the East Indies, the system of isolation
on the part of the Japanese cannot remain unaffec
ted by the constant intercourse which that trade
will generate between the two extremes of the
route. In due course of time the Pacific will be
alive with our ships. The whale fishery already gives
employment to a vassVeet; and the introduction of
steamers on the smooth waters of that ocean may
be expected soon to connect the route from San
Francisco to Canton and the East Indies into a thor
oughfare for American commerce. Civilization ur
ges on this'consummation and trusts with confi
dence to.the results it will bring to pass.—Baltimore
American.
We have heretofore had some accounts of a fam
ine prevailing in certian parts of Germany. By the
Atlantic further advices have been received. A
letter in the London Times says:—`'Poor Southern
and Central Germany, still suffering from the re
cent political convulsions, has now, in addition,
been visited by disease and famine. - The places
alluded to in the letter are Wurtemburg in Bava
ria, Grand Duchy of Baden, Nassau, and the north
east part of the Duchy of Hess, of which the wri
ter says:
"In these localities whole villages are being de
serted for want of food; their unfortunate inhabi
tants, who in time of comparative prosperity eke
out but a .scanty and miserable existence, have been
wanting their staple food—potatoes. In other parts
trade is standing still; of 10,000 looms, in a single
province in Bavaria, almost exclusively inhabited
by weavers, not half are at full work. The people
are deprived alike of the productions of nature and
the fruits of industry; and, to consummate wretch
edness and despair, and an extreme dearth of pro
visions, whole herds of cattle and sheep are killed
by a rapidly spreading disease. All feelings of hu
man nature begin to be more and more perverted
and convulsed. The most loathsome food, meat
infested by murrain, is eagerly sought after, in some
instanc , s dogs have been slaughtered and raven
ously devoured by a famishing population. In some
cases, in Wurtemburg, a dog buried for some days
has been dug up; and, what will scarcely appear
credible, the flesh in its advanced state of decompo
sition has been actually made use of as food."
This, the writer says, explains the reason why
Germans, in yet unheard of numbers, are literally
besieging every port available for emigration.—
Hunger knows no patriotism, and same qui peed is
the anxious cry repeated froM village to village by
hundreds and thousands, and is driving them to
search fora home in foreign and distant countries.
Disinterested.—A young and beautiful, but poor
widow, was about to molly an old but rich widow
er. Her friends • wished to know what she was
about to marry him for? She feelingly replied,
"pure love-1 love the ground (meaning the farm
probably) on which be walks, and the very house
in which he lives." There is disinterested love for
you. There is none of your. school girl foolishness
in sat.

Famine in Germany
Homestead Bill
The House of Representatives at Washington, on
Wednesday week passed the Homestead bill, by tO7
to 56. This bill authorizes every American citi
zen to claim, improve, and occupy one hundred and
sixty acres of the surveyed and unappropriated pub
lic lands, which are open to purchase. Nearly
every member of the Pennsylvania delegation voted
in favor of the bill.
It is thought that a strong effort will be made to
defeat it in the Senate. The following is an abstract:
The bill now presented provides that any person
who is the head of a family and a citizen of the
United States, or any person who is the head of a
family and had become a citizen prior to the first
day of January 1852, as required by the naturali
zation laws of the United States, shall, from and
after the passage of this act be entitled to enter, free
of cost, one quarter section of vacant and unappro
priatcd public lands, or a quantiy equal thereto, to
be located in a body, in conformity with the legal
subdivisions of the public lands, and aft r the same
shall have been surveyed.
2d. The person applying for the benefit of the
act, to make an affidavit that he or she is the bead
of a family, and is not the owner of any estate in
land at the time of such application, and has not
disposed of any estate in land to obtain the benefit
of the act.
. .
3d section refers to the duties of the Land Reg
ster. . .
4th. All lands acquired under the provisions or
the act shall in no event become liable to satisfac•
tion of any debt or debts contracted prior to the is
suing of the patents therefor.
Otis. If, at any time after filing the affidavjt re
quired, and before the expiration of five years, it
shall be proven that the person locating on such
lands shall have changed his or her residence, or
abandoned the said entry for more than six months
at any one time, then the land to revert back to the
Government, and be disposed of as other public
lands are now by law.
6th. If any individual, now a resident of any State
or Territory, and not a citizen of the United States,
but at the time of making application for the benefit
of the act shall have filed a declaration of intention
so to do, as required by the Naturalization laws of
the United States, and shall become a citizen of the
same before the issuing of the patent, as made and
proved for in this act, he shall be placed on equal
tooting with the native born citizens.
7th. No individual is permitted to make more
than one entry under this act.
TIIE Monmoss AT UTAH.—The St. Louis Intel
ligencer publishes a most, noticeable account of
Mormon doings, contained in a letter from Great
Salt Lake City, dated February 28th. he writer
says that the Legislature is still in session, though
the term allotted by law had expired sometime pre
vious. The delay was probably in order to hear
from the States. The Mormons expected rigid
measures to be adopted by the general government,
and were intending to resist the United States to the
extent of their ability; many saying that they had
fled for the last time, and would die where they
were. The proceedings of the Legislature are rep
resented as most disorderly; any person, whether
a member or not. being allowed to take part in the
debates. The Governor is said to control every
thing according to his own pleasure.
On a certain occasion when the members were
divided, the Governor is said to have risen, as he
declared, "to put a stop to the debate, and to settle
the matter for them;' in doing which lie used the
most profane language in regard to the General
Government and to the representatives of the'same
in the territory. And such is said to be his habit
when speaking and preaching. The writer then
goes on to say that the Governor has about 50
wives, and other leading members of the Church
from 2 to Ili wives, according to circumstances.—
He adds:
"I have heard it said, upon good authority, that
the Mormons intend to form an alliance with the
Indians, and excite them against the government,
for the purpose of resisting her authority ; and that
they were now preparing for a conflict, This re
port seems to . be sustained by the fact that the
Governor and the Mormon sub-agent, S. B. Rose,
with interpreters, take frequent excursions, with
presents, &c.
The Washington Union copies the letter from the
St. Louis Intelligencer and says:
"We are informed, upon authority which we
have full reason to regard as reliable, that the ex
traordinary and most unwarrantable state of things
set forth in the letter is not exaggerated or misrep
resented:

DR . . JOHNSTON,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, Lon
don, Graduate from one of the most eminent Col
leges of the United States and the greater part of
whose life has been spent in the Hospitals of Lon
don, Paris, Philadelphia, and elsewhere, has affect
ed some of the most astonishing cures that were
ever known. Many troubled with ringing in the
ears and head when asleep,great nervousness, being
alarmed at sudden sounds, and bashfulness, with
frequent blushing; attended, sometimes, with de
rangement of mind, were cured immediately.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
Dr. .J. addresses all those who have injured
themselves by private and improper indulgencies,
that secret and solitary habits, which ruin both
body and mind, unfitting them for either business
or society.
These are some of the sad and melancholy ef
fects produced by early habits of youth, viz:
Weakness of the back and limbs, Pains in the head,
Dimness of Sight, Loss of Muscular Power, Pal
pitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous Irrita
bility, Derangement of the Digestive Functions,
General Debility, Symptoms of Consumptiop, &c.
Mentally.—The tearful effects on the mind are'
much to be dreaded : Loss of Memory, Confusion
of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil of Forebo•
ding, Aversion of Society, Self Distrust, Love of
Solitude, Timidity, &c. arc some of the evils pro
duced!
NERVOUS DEBILITY.
Weakness of the system, NervoueDebility and
premature decay generally arises from the destruct
ive habit of youth, that solitary practice so fatal to
the healthful existence of man, and it is the young
who are the most apt to become its Victims from
andgoorance of the dangers to which they subject
themselves. Parents and Guardians are often mis
led Willi respect to the cause or source of disease
in their sons and wards. Alas! how of:en do they
ascribe to other causes the, wasting of the frame,
Palpitation of the Hea 1, Dyspepsia, Indigestion,
Derangement of the Nervous System, Cough and
Symptoms of Consumption, also those serious
Mental effects, such as loss of Memory, Depres
sion of Spirits or peculiar fits of Melancholy, when
the truth is they have been caused by indulging
Pernicious but alluring practices, destructive to
both' Body and Mind. Thus are swept from ex
istence thousands who might have been of use to
their country, a pleasure to their friends, an orna
count to society.
WEAKNESS OF THE , ORGANS
immediately cured and full vigor restored.
Oh, how happy have hundreds of misguided
youths been made, who have been suddenly resto
red to health from the devastations of those terrific
maladies which result from indiscretion. Such
persons, before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
should reflect that a sound mind and body are the
most necessary requisites to promote connubial
happiness. Indeed, without this, the journey duo'
life becomes a weary pilgrimage ; the prospect
hourly darkens to the view •, the mind becomes
shadowed with despair, and filled with the melan
choly reflection that the happiness of another be
comes blighted with our own. - Let no false delica
cy prevent you, but apply immediately.
He who places himself under the care of Dr.
JOHNSTON, may religiously confide in his hon
or as a Gentleman, and confidently rely upon his
skill as a Physician
'l'o STRANGERS. . .
The many thousands cured at this institution
within the last ten years, and the numerous im
portant Surgical Operations performed by Dr. J.,
witnessed by the Reporters of the papers and ma.
ny other persons, notices of which have appeared
again and again before the public, is a snfficient
guarantee that the afflicted will find a skilful and
honorable physician.
N. B.—Shun the numerous pretenders who call
themselves Physicians, and apply to DR. JOHN
STON. Be not enticed from this office.
