HOPE FOR THE FUTURE
gr'The reader will find in the annexed lines, writ
ten for the New York Atlas, by our gifted young
townsman, Mr. EDWARD M. Kunz, much of that
poetic fire which characterizes the writings of the
earlier English poets. The versification is easy,
the'sentiment noble, and the design such as to win
the approbation of the Philosopher and Christian.
A HOPE FOR THE FUTURE
GOD ! speed the time
When Eines from its envied height shall fall,
And TRUTH shall be enshrined upon its pall
In every clime; •
When all shall hate Lie one and love the other,
And in each fellow man, behold a-brother.
There isiin "Liar,
Though poor and trod; upon by wealth and pow'r,
A something soaring far beyond thnhour
Which marks life's span 1
A spirit teeming with the eternal thought,
That out of Evit.--Gcmo is ever wrought.
111.
Let the free Thought
Of man, go , ut upon the awaken'd ear
Of toiling millions—who wilt gladly hear,
!The TRUTH unbought;
But who with conscious right — by word and deed,
Refuge allegiance to the churchman's creed.
. .

•
' ' Behind the PRESS!
And let-its many iron tongues proclaim—
Throughout the world!in Manhood's name,.
GOD'S HOLINESS
Its tones far reaching as the ambient air,
Shall wake to hope, minds wrapt in dark despair
Then, without fear!
Speak out, whatieer yeu think—where'er you find
One listening ear among your fellow kind,
to hear
This truth, engrafted on Creation's plan—
The Fatherhood of GOD, and Brotherhood of Mar,
And boldly pray !
The time may hasten—when no more on earth,
The mother, joyous at her firet born>s birth,
, Yet fears a day,
When Envy—Flate and Error—all combined,
Too often crush the Freedom of the Mind !
" SALLY'S SWEETHEARTS:"
We make the following amusing extract from
Mrs. Gaskill's new book, entitled "Ruth," which
has just been reprinted from the English copy:
Well, you see, I don't know as I could call them
sweethearts, for, excepting John Rawson, who was
shut up in a mad house the next week, I never had
what you might. call; a downright offer of mar
riage but once. But:I had once; so I may say I
had a sweetheart. was beginning to be aleard,
though?for one likes to be axed; that's but civility;
and I remember, after!l had turned forty, and afore
Jeremiah Dixon bpd spoken, I began to think John
Rawson had perhaps not been so very mad, and that
I had done ill to treat lightly his offer, as a mad
inner', if it was to be the only one I was ever to
have; I don't mean as I'd have had him, but I thought
if it was to come over again, I'd speak respectful
to folk, and say it were only his way to go about
an all fours, but that jte was a sensible man in most
things., However, I'd have my laugh, and so had
others,4 at my crazy laver, and it was too late now
to set him up as a Solomon.
However' I thought it would be no bad thing to
be tried again; but I little thought the trial would
• tome when it did. :You see, Saturday night is a
leisure night in counting houses and such like places,
while its the busiest: of all for servants. WelLit
was a Saturday night, and I'd my baize apron on,
and the tails of my bedgown pinned together behind,
down en my knees, pipe cloying the kitchen, when
a knock comes to the back door.
"Come in," says I; but it knocked again, as if it
)were too stately to open the door for itself; so I got
up rather cross, and opened the door; and there
stood Jary Dixon, Mr. Holt's head clerk—only he
was not head clerk then.
So I stood, stopping, at the door, lanc3ing he
wanted to speak to master; but he kind of pushed
past me, and telling me summat about the weather,
(as if I-could not Bee iit :or myself,) he took a chair
and sat down by the oven. "Cool and easy!" thought
I; meaning hisself, not his place, which I knew must
be pretty hot: '
• Well, it seemed no use standing waiting for my
gentleman to go; not that he had much to. say;
either; but he kept twirling his hat round and round
and smoothing the nap on't with the back of his
hand. So squattedidown to my work, and thinks
I, I shall be on my; knees all ready if he puts up
a prayer, for I knew he was a Methodee by bridg
ing up, and had lately turned over to master's way
ot thinking; and them Methodees are terrible hands
at übexpected prayers when one least look for 'em;
I .say 1, can't like their way - of taking one by sur
prise, as it were; but then I'm a parish clerk's daugh
ter, and could never demean myself to dissenting
fashions, always save and except Mr. Thurstan's,
bless him. However, I'd been caught once or twiee
unawares, 'so' this time I tho't I'd be up to it, and
rnoven:n dry duster wherever I went, to kneel upon
• in case, he began when I was in a wet place.
By and by I thought, it the man would pray it
would be a blessing, for it would' prevent his send
ing his.eyes after me wherever I went; for when
they. takes to praying they shuts their eyes and
quivers the lids in a queer kind of way—them dib
seaters does. I can speak pretty plain to you, for
you're bred in the church like myself, and met
find it out 6' the way as I do to be among dissent
ing folk. God forbid that I should speak disrespect
ful of Mastet Thurstan and Miss Faith, though
never think of them as church members or die
'centers, but just as Christians.
But to come back to Jerry. First, I always tried
to be cleaning at his back; but when he wheeled
round so as always, to face me, I tho't I'd try a dif
ferent game. So, says I, "Master Dixon, laz yotir
pardon, but I must pipeclay under your chair.-4 7
Will you please to move.°
• Well, he moved; and by and by I was arliini
again with the watne words; and after that, agaih
and again till he Were always moving about
his chair behind him, like a snail as carries his
house on his back. And the, great gaupers never
seed:that I was pipe-claying 'the same place twice
over: . ..At last I got desperate cross, he wete so ih
my way; so I made two big 'crosses on the,tails tlf
his brown coat; tori you see, wherever he went up
or down, he drew out the tails of his coat froin ud
der him and stuck:them thro' the bars of the chait;
and flesh-and blodd could not resist pipeclaying
thern tor. him, anita pretty brushing he'd have, I
reckon, xo get it off again..
Well; at-length he clears his throat uncommon
loud; so.lspread My.,duster, and'shtits my eyes al

Chen fire. I thought I better tell him it were not
so clean as I could wish; so'says
"Master Dixon, you shall have it and welcome,
I may Piet go and wash 'em first. But, says he,
"My dear Sally, dirty or clean. it's all the same
to me, seeing I'm only speaking in a figuring way.
What I'm asking on my bended knees is, that you'd
please to be so kind as to be my wedded wile; week
after next will suit me,'it it's agreiable to you."
'My work! I were up on my feet in a moment.—
It were odd ; werellt it? Inever tho't of taking the
fellow and, getting married; for I'll not deny I had
been thinking it would be agreeable to be axed.—
But all at once I couldn't abide the chap. "Sir,"
sap; I, trying to look shame faced, as bPcame the
occasion, but, for all that, feeling a twittering round
my mouth that I was afraid might end in a laugh,
"Master Dixon, I am obleeged to you for the com
pliment; and thank ye all the same; but I think I'd
prefer a single life." ..
He looked mighty taken aback; but in a minute
he cleared up, and was as sweet as ever. Ile still
kept on his knees, and.l wished he'd take himself
up; but I reckon he tho't it would give force to his
word; says he, .
"Think again, my dear Sally. I've a four room
ed house, and furniture comfortable, and £BO a year.
You may never have such a chance again."
There was truth enough in that; but it was 'not
pretty in the man to say it;. and it put me up a bit.
"As for that, neither you or I can tell, Master
Dixon. You're not the first chap as I have had
down on his knees, as yop know s and maybe you'll
• not be the last. Any how, I've no wish to change
my condition just now."
"I'll wait till Christmas," says he, "I've a pig as
will be ready for killing then, so I must get mar
ried before that."
Well, now, would you believe it? the pig were a
temptation. I'd a receipt for curing barns, and
Miss Faith would never let me try, saying the old
way was good enough. However, I resisted. Says
I, very stern, because I felt I'd been wavering—
“ Master Dixon, once for all, pig or no pig, I'll
not marry you. And, if you'll take my advice. you
will get up off your knees. The flags is but wet
yet, and it would be an awkwaid thing to have
rheumatiz just before winter.''
With that he got up, stiff enough.' He looked
as sulky a chap as ever I clapped eyes on. And
he was so black and cross, I thought I'd done well
(whatever came of the pig) to say no to him.—
"You may live to repent this," says he, very red.
'But I'll not be too hard upon ye, I'll give you an
other chance. I'll let you have the night to think
about it, and -just call in to hearyour second
thoughts, after chapel to-morrow."
Well now I did you ever hear the like? But this
is the way with all of them men, thinking so much
of'theirselves, and that's but ask and have. They've
never had me, though; and I shall be sixty-one next
Martinmas, so there is not much time left for them
to try me, I reckon—Well when Jeremiah said that
he put me up more tban ever, and I says,
"My first thoughts, second thoughts, and third
thoughts is all one and the same; you've but tempt
ed me once, and that was when you spoke of your
pig. But of yourself you're nothing to boast on.
and so I'll bid you good night, and I'll keep my
manners, or else, if I told the truth, 'filmid say it
had been a great loss of time listening to you. But
I'll be civil—so good bight.
He never said a word, but when off as black as
thunder, slamming the door after him. The mas
ter called me into praxers, but I can't say I could
put my mind to them, for my heart was beating
so. However, it was a comfort to have bad an of
ler of-holy- matrimony; and though it flustered me,
it made me think more of myself.
Birds of Spring.
To those who love nature, there is a heart-thrill
differing from every other at the song of the first
spring bird. Not a blade of grass has turnedits
velvet cheek to the sun, not a bud swollen from the
moisture that gives • tint and coloring to leaf and
blossom., Perchance the last snow has not yet
melted • from the hilly hollows—yet on yon bare
twig, that quivers at so light a touch, sits a fair.
tethered" thing, -pouring out. as if he had not enough
on give, the first beautiful flute notes of spring. •
Seldom we think diow much we are dependent
of those tiny creatures for the most delicious hap
piness. It is a joy that is so quiet—steals upon the
senses like the dawn of love upon the night of un
consciousness. Let the mind be occupied as it will,
the most delicate thoughts and reveries, fine as the
texture of which dreams are.woven, is broken not by
the gentle music. And often comes the thought
that this wealth of melody is as free'to the lowliest
as the greatest of God's children. No lord of the
manor can bribe those innocent things' to sing alone
in his beautiful parks, though he hang a golden
cage on every branch Of his grand old trees. His
hedge, though bordered with flowers of more bloOm
and brilliance, holds no sweeter honey, for bee and
bird, than The straggling limbs of wild rose-bushes
and honeysuckle gathered against the homeliest
cottage.
To the untaught ear of the ploughman as 'he
turns the rich black furrow, the far off sounds of
music flung from every recees of that thick grove,
are sweeter than' the trained notes of the most skill
ful human voice.
The little rustic bounding through aisles of the
fragrant pine woods, looks up with wonder, and rev
erentially checks her mirth. There, upon the in
most height of the cloud•embracingkanopy, sits he
feathered warbler; a speck of gold tinged with
crimson and blue, wiih two little wings under
which the tiny head is bufied at every interval of
silence—and from that speck of gold, crimson and
blue, come all those wonderful gushes of song, clear
and brilliant, filling heaven with its rich melody;
Sweet birds of spring, ye can know nothing 'of
the deep joy that wakes responsive music in many
an humble heart. Buf-Ile who fashioned you for
Paradise, and placed you in the-midst of a sinless
and glorious world, know how in our sadness iat
the withdrawal of innocence, we should long for
something that spoke through nature of the lost
Eden. And so in the great temple@ of the mighty
Woods, and among the lowliest shrubs and flowers.
He has placed ye, beautiful birds, to give blessing
and delight to his weary earth children.
The Siriartart.—There is a large class of people
who employ themselves almost constantly by sneer
ing, at the efforts of-others. Nothing' done by' a
neighbor suits them. If you perform an act of
charity, they question your motives; if you exhibit
skill in your profession, they pretend to regard_ you
an over-rated man; if you produce sofnething de
cidedly meritorious, they ridicule and depreciate
worth; and if you originate a thought or machine,
they declare yoit a plagiarist. In their estimaticln
your writings arc stupid, and full of tautology; your
conversation unprofitable; the work of your hands
valueless. Andymt ask them to do what you aimed
at, and failed in, according to them, and they have
not even the ability to try. Thy are all, in,
what they feign you - to be, and 'unfit for everything

"THAT doom IS THEI MOST PROSPEROUS, WHERE LABOR CORIUM THE GREATEST REWARD:'
CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, APRIL 26, 1853.
The Bridal Wine Cup.
"Pledge with wine—pledge with wine." cried
the young and thotightles'Harvey Wood ; pledge
with wine," ran through the brilliant crowd.
The beautiftil bride grew pale—the decisive hour
had come. She pressed her white hands together,
and the leaves of the bridal wreath trembled on her
brow ; her breath came quicker, her heart beat
wilder.
"Yes, Marion, lay aside your scruples for this
once," said the Judge, in a low tone, going towards
his daughter, " the company expect. Do not in
fringe rApon the rules of etiquette; in your own
home do as you please ; but in mine, for this once,
please me."
Every eye was turned towards the bridal pair.—
Marion's principles were well known. Henry bad
been a convivialist, but of late his friends noted the
change in his manners, the difference in his habits
--and to-night they wafched nim to see, as they
sneeringly said, if he was tied down to h woman 's
opinion so soon. . .
Pouring a brimming beaker, they held it with
tempting smiles towards Marion. She was sell
very pale, though more compoied ; and her hands
shook not, as smiling back, she greatly accepted
the crystal temptir, and raised it to her lips. But
scarcely had she done so, when every hand was ar
rested by her piercing exclamation of " oh ! how
terrible I"
"What is it?" cried one and all, thronging to
gether; for she had slowly carried the glass at arm's
length, and was fixedly regarding it as though it
were some hideous object.
" Wait," she answered, .while an inspired light
shone from her dark eyes, " wait, and I will tell
you. I see," she added, slowly, pointing one jew
eled finger at the sparkling .ruby liquid—" a sight
that beggars all description; and yet listen—l will
paint it for you di can. It is a lonelyz,spot ; tall
mountains crowned with verdure rise in awful sub
limity around; a river runs through, and bright
flowers grow to the water's edge. There is a thick,
warm mist, that the sun seeks vainly to pierce:—
Trees, lofty and beautiful, wave to the airy motion
of birds; but there—a group of Indians gather;
they flit to and fro with something like sorrow up
on their brows. And in their midst lies a manly
form—but his cheek how deathly, his eye wild
with the lire of fever. Ore friend stands beside him
—nay, I should say kneels; for see, he is pillowing
that pbor head upon hie breast.
Genius in ruins—oh ! the high, holy-looking brow
why should death mark it, and he so young? Look
how he throws back the damp curls! see him
clasp his hands! hear his thrilling shrieks for life!
mark how he clutches at the form of his compan
ion, imploring to be saved. Oh ! hear him call
piteously his father's name—see him twine his fin
gers together as he shrieks for his sister—his only
sisterthe twin of his soul—weeping for him in
hie distant native laud.
• " See !" she exclaimed, while the bridal party
shrank back,'the untested wine trembling in their
faltering grasp, and the Judge fell, overpowered,
upon his seat—" see! his arms are lifted to heaven
—be prays, how wildly, for mercy ! hot fever rush
es through his veins. The friend beside him is
weeping awe-stricken, the dark men move silently
away, and leave the living and the dying together."
There was a hush in that princely parlor, bro
ken only by what seemed a smothered sob from
some manly bosom. The bride stood yet upright,
with quivering lip, and tears stealing to the out
ward edge other lashes. Her beautiful arm had
lest its tension, and the glass, with its little troubled
red waves, came slowly towards the range of her
vision. She spoke again; every lip was mute.—
Her voice was low, faint, yet awfully distinct; she
still fixed her sorrowful glance upon the wine-cup
"It is evening now; the great white moon is
coming up, and his beams lay gently on his fore
head He moves not; his eyes are set in their
sockets; dim are their piercing glances; irs - vain
his friends whispered the name of lather and sister
—death is there. Death—and no soft hand, no
gentle voice to bless and soothe him. His head
sinks back ! he is dead P
A groan ran through the assembly, so vivid was
her description, so unearthly her look, so inspired
her manner, that, what she described seemed actu
ally to have taken place then and there. They no
ticed also that the bridegroom hid his face in his
hands and, was weeping.
"Dead!" she repeated again,.her lips qUivering
(aster and faster, and her voice more and more bro
ken ; and there they scoop him a grave ; and there
without a shroud, they lay him down in that damp
reeking earth. The only eon of a proud, the only
idolized brother of a fond sister. And he sleeps
to-day in that distant country, with no stone to
mark the spot. There he lies—my father's son—
my own twin brother !—a victim to this deadly
poison. " Father she exclaithed, turning suddenly
while the tears rained down her beautiful cneeks,
" father, shall I drink it now ?"
The form oPthe old Judge was convulsed with
agony. He raised not his head, but in a smother
ed voice he faltered—' No, no, my child, in God's
name—no."
She lifted the glittering goblet, and letting. it
suddenly fall to the floor, it was dashed in a thou
sand pieces. Many a tearful eye watched her move
ment, and instantaneously every wine-glass was
transferred to the marble table on which it had
been prepared. Then as she locked at the frag
ments of crystal She turned to the company, say
ing, " let no friend hereafter, who loves me, tempt
me to peril my soul for wine. Not firmer are the
everlasting hills than my resolve, God helping me,
never 'to - touch of taste that terrible poison. And
he to whom I have my hand—who watched over
my brother's dying form in that last solemn hour,
and buried the dear wanderer there by the river in
that land of gold, will, I trust, sustain me in that
resolve. Will you not, my husband ?"
His glistening eyes, his sad, sweet smile, was her
answer. The Judge left the room and when an
hour after he returand, and with a more subdued
manner took part in the entertain'ment of the bri
dal guests, no one could fail to read that he, too had
determined to banish the enemy at once and forev
er from his princely home,

on, Parts, Philadelphia, and elsewhere, hasaffect
ed some of the most astonishing cures, that were
ever known. Many troubled with ringing in the
ears and head when aeleep,great nervousness, being
alarmed at sudden sounds, and bashfulness, with
frequent blushing, attended, sometimes, with de
rangement of mind. were cured immediately.
TAKE FARIICULAR NOTICE
Dr. J. addresses all those who have injured
themselves by private_'and improper indulgencies,
that secret and solitary habits, which rain both
body and mind, unfitting them, for either busines
or society.
These are some of the / sad and melancholy ef
fects produced by early habitil 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 Consumption, &c
Mentally.—The fearful 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, &e. are some of the evils pro
duced-.
Weakness of the system, Nervous Debility and
premature decay generally arisee 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
an ignorance of the dangers to which they subject'
themselves. Parents and Guardians are often mis•
led with respect to +he cause or source of disease
in their eons and wards. Alas! how often do they
ascribe to other causes the wasting of the frame,
Palpitation of the Heart, 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 peculiai - 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 pleasurt to their friends, an orna

WEAKNESS OF THE ORGANS
immediately cured and full.vigor restored.
Oh, how happy nave 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
moat necessary requisites to promote connubial
happiness. Indeed, without this, the journey thro'
life becomes a weary pilgrimage; the prospect
hourly darkens to the view • the mind becomes

The True Digestive Fluid or Gastric Juice
PREPARED from Rennet, or the iourth Stom
ach of the Ox, after dirCetiOnSOl BARON LIEBIG:
thp great Physiological Chemist, by 3. S.
ton, M. D., Philadelphia, Pa.
This is a truly wonderful remedy for Indigestion,
Dyspepsia, Jaundice, Liver Complaint, Constipa
tion, and Debility, curing after Nature's own
method, by Nature's own Agent, the Gastric Juice.
Half a teaipoonful of Pepsin, infused in- water,
will digest or dissolve, FivekPounds of Roast Beef
in about two hours, out of the stomach.
PEPSIN is the chief element, or Great Digesting
Principle of the Gastric Juice—the solvent of the
food, the purifying, preserving and. stimulative
agent of the stomach and intestines. It is extracted
from the digestive stomach of •the Ox, thus form
ing an Ariihcial Digestive Fluid, precisely like the
natural Gastric Juice in its chemical powers 2 and
furnishing a complete and perfect substitute• for it
By the aidtof this preparation, the pains and evils
of Indigestion and Dyspepsia are removed, just at
they would be by a healthy stomach. It is doing
wonders for dyspeptics, curing cases of Debility,
Emaciation, Nervous Decline, and Dyspeptic Con
sumption, supposed to be on the verge of the grave
The scientific evidence upon which it is based, is
in the highest degree curious and remarkable.
SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE !
Baron Liebig in- his celebrated work on Anima
Chemistry, says '•An artificial Digestive Fluid,
analogous to the Gastric Juice, may be readily
prepared from the mucous membrane of the stom
ach of the calf, in which venous articles of food,
as meal and eggs;will be softened, changed, and
digested, just in the same
. manner as they would
be in the human stomach.'
'Dr. Pereira, in his !anions treatise on " Food and
Diet," published by Fowler & Wells, New York,
page 35, states the same great fact . , end describes
the method of preparation. There are few higher
authorities than Dr. Pereira.
Dr. Combo, in his valuable writings on the
" Physiology of Digestion," observes that "a dim
inution of the due quantity of the Gastric Juice is
a prominent and all•prevailing cause of Dyspepsia,"
and he states that "a distinguished professor of
medicine in London, who was severely afflicted
with this complaint, finding everything else to Mil,
had recourse to the Gastric Juice,obtained Irons
the stomach of living animals, which proved com
pletely successful!."
Dr. Graham, author of the famous works on
"Vegetable Diet," says: It is a remarkable fact
in phesiology, that the stomachs of animals, mace
rated in water, impart to the fluid the property of
dissolving vu, 'ous articles of food, and of effecting
a kind of artificial digestion of them in nowise
diffeent mru the natural digestive process." -
AS A' DYSPEPSIA CURER,
Dr. HOUGHTON'S PEPSIN has produced the
most marvellous effects,in curing cases of Debility,
Emaciation, Nervous Decline, and Dyspeptic
Consumption. It is impossible to give the details
of cases in the limits of this advertisement ; but
authenticated certificates have been given of more
than Two Hundred Remarkable Cures, in Pnila
delphia, New York and Boston alone. 'these
were nearly all desperate cases, and the cures were
not only rapid and wonderful, but permanent.
It is a great Nervous Antidote, and particularly
useful for tendency to Billions disorder, Liver
Complaint, Fever and Ague, or badly treated Fever
and Ague, and the evil effects of Quinine, Mer
cury and other drugs upon the Digestive Organs,
after a lor.g sickness. Also, excess in eating,
-and the too free use of ardent spirits. It almost
reconciles health with intemprance.
OLD STOMACH CO/1/PLAINTS.
- -
There is no form of Old Stomach Complaints
which it does not seem to reach and remove at
once. No matter how bad they may be, it gives
instant relief! A single dose removes all the.un
pleasant symptoms; and it only needs to bo repeated
short for a time to make these geed effects perma
nent. Purity of Blood and Vigor of Body follow at
once. It is particularly excellent in cases of Nausea,
Vomiting, Cramps, Soreness of the pit of the
Stomach, distress after eating, low, cold state of
the Blood, Heaviness, Lowness of Spirits,•Des- -
pendency, Emaciation, Weakness, tendency to
Insanity, Suicide, &c.
Dr.HOU.GHTON'S PEPSIN is sold by nearly
all the dealers in fine drugs and Popular Medicines,
throughout the United Slates. It is prepared in
Powder and in Fluid form—and in prescription
vials for the use of Physicians.
PRIVATE Cumin/ate fur the use of Physicians,
may be obtained of Dr. Houghton or his Agents, -
describing the whole process of prepardtion, and
giving the authorities upon Which the claim of this
new remedy are based. As his not a secret remedy
no Objection can be raised against its use by Phy
sicians in respectable standing and regular practice.
