A Lady's Hand,
'Tie dimpled, white, and oh I so soft,
That little fairy hand !
It lies within my own so warm,
So graceful in its petite form ;
, No words I can canint . ad
Will tell the magic, mystic spell
Which in thy hand doth dwell.
As to my burning lips full oft
That little hand I press,
Bestowing Love's caress
Upon the flake of dimpled snow
Which warm with life and youth doth glow,
My lady's soft white hand.
I love to mark the blue veins swell
. Upon that little hand !
Each finger tapers, round and fair,
And by that much loved hand I swear,
While), have my health or land, k
That gentle hand no ills shall know,
No rude touch bid its whiteness glow,
That snowy hand I love so well.
Would it were now in mine,
That I might leave love's sign,
His signet, and his sweetest seal
On that hand, which, thro , woe and weal,
I'll love—my lady's hand !
POOR: PEPITA
A FRAGMENT
BY LIEUT. ROGERS, U. S. N
Pepita had just-turned sixteen when I knew her
—an age in her lime that developes the perfect
woman. Girl d had well nigh gone—the spring
rose. that was aball bud, though a summer's sun
was over it—her growth was well nigh. complete,
and she had burst forth, opening in the full flower,
and similar indeed to a slender stemed lilly was she.
She was a diminutive—and diminutive in the Span
ish ever conveys the idea of the tender—yet in he
diminutiveness was grace and beauty! Her eyes
were black and so were the overhanging lashes.—
In their luminous depths there was a strange fas
cination such as I never had seen before. They
were bright, coruscating as ever; yet soft and
dreamy as orbs can be, and in that dreaminess lay
their glory. The'iris had the strange ; roperty of
dilation and contraction which give to eyes a mean
ing and a mystery—a something that shadows visi
bly the unseen. Her mouth was a rosy lipped shell
that one sometimes finds on the Pacific Island
shoes, and her voice was low and clear and sweet
—almost a sibilation in its common utterance.
And in moon lighted nights in the great Plaza
of the city of Mexico, have I heard its soft intone
thins in the pauses of music trom the band near—
whispering in plaintiveminor the smooth liquids
and deep vowels of the Castilian,tongue—Pepira
hanging, on my arm reboza-wrapped, unbonneted,
as Mexicans always are; her black braided hair
in a halo almost - in the sheen of the soft moon rays,
and those nights are ever to be remembered.
The grand Plaza is the night resort for all clas
ses at the capital. On its east side stretches the
Palace,lts hundred windows throwing - out light
'rem the chandeliers within; opposite the Portal,
with its columns and arches and contOctioner's
shops; and on the right the cathedral with its great
domes—dark as darkest night, its deep niches
wherein stood figures of mitred priests and crozier
ed saint—the projecting corbles, the heavily en
wrought windows and the massive mouldings. '
It was there that Pepita and I have often wan
dered—when I would tell her of my far distant
home, my past history, and together we would pon
der on the future—wondering if the present fate
that frowned over me like a thunder-cloud was to
continue dark and end in complete nothingness.
Bright and joyous in the terltilia, or evening party,
was soul-eyed Pepita. Through the mazes of the
contradanze she went, flashing like a sunbeam in
that silver star-spangled dress 1 so well remember;
while from her shoulders drooped the deep tringed
rebozo, that floated, gossamer-like, behind, and the
light loot fulls went bandit . ' hand \Vita the guitar.
harmony—in perfect measures, a.td surrounding
eyes showered soft praise smiles over tier lithe and
graceful figure.
Now for a-surprise, compassionate . earler. Did
you think I was hymning a creature of mine own
love? tif,ny love, yes! but of mine less than that
of another She wrote words of hope and affection
and remembrance in my heart-book—illuminated
words that will remain ortaht and undimmed thro'
all years,-Iluc!. a record though, as a sister would
write, and as only such was she to me. Yet she
had a lover—an officer, a gallant fellow, very un
like most 01 hiS countrymen. How' it was that I
became dear enough to her for such heart reveal
ings as she made to me of Dun Carlos my modesty
permits not a relation. I had done him a service,
and no more it becomes me to- add, and it is not
strange that beauty and tenderness and sensibility
like her's should find an admirer and that she should
find an admirer and that she should be grateful to
me that I had stood between her admirer and peril.
Perhaps I regretted . I was a foreigner, aye, worse,
an enemy, over whom swooped a destiny, seeming,
ly inexorable, like the old Greek Fatalism. And
this very incident, this uncommonness of event, to
gether with the life service done her lover, broke
down all conventional' form and phrase, and made
us soon
"Kin as horse's' ear and eye."
I have thus introduced only the common sights
of two lovers—not home ones, to be sure, but of
another clime, and in the midst of terrible and ex
traordinary events—and because they were so dan
ger girded and; foreign, is, I think, of greater at
tractiveness that if they had been of us—even of
the school times of any of us; attaining maturity
with us. Yet nave a sequel that is fraught with
melancholy, ending in sadness. •
Three months after I had first met Pepita I was
again with my countrymen, and out of the hands
of my captors.
All of us know the story of the campaign in
Mexico. But that campaign enveloped many an
individual heroism, that history, which only deals
of thOaggregate, will never notice; and which.many
tongued rumor even; has dumbly passed over.—
Voiceless and dead are they as many of the actors,
and silenter than monumental marble. That then'
which should be immortal, springs not so high as
the flowers that wave in the moaning wind on the
graves of the gallant men we left in Mexico. And
for obscurity and death, and a turf-bed in a strange
land, went many a chivalrous heart from wile and
mother. Glory, which is a cloud castle away up
in the sky, on beautiful embroidery woven by fan
cy, was stronger than home love and home hopes;
and the eager mind that dared all, lost all—even a
little history. The mimes of +hose that fell were
blent in a single word called war, and then Mep .
iireached morals from it, and lo! the soldier's guer
don.
Yet,-oh! people of America! that campaign was
complete heroism. Every foot-fall over those high
mountains and the green spread valleys, brought
your brothers nearer to death, and every foot tall
• was a hero's. Who can drag up from oblivion
deader than death - itself, the title of any? lf, by
chance, there is one. it is wrote as small, and hung
as high as Nero's tablets, that no man could read.
Contreras, Cburubusco, Molino del Rey, Chapuite
per and Mexico, are cynosures for posterity; brave
lessons for future readings to those who lisp infancy
now, and all who are to be. Heaven rest the souls
of those who unprepared with their bodies such mon
uments as make our country great and renowned!
On the evening of the 13th of September, our
army that had been engaged since early morn, laid
down to rest., Death and desolation were around.
but the exhausted soldier forgot alt on his dreams
9n the morrow it was known that'-the last blaw
mould be struck that would give us the city which
lay,,quiet before us then, all hushed in the quiet
maa ,,hght. That morrow came, and after
desul
tory warfare from street to street, and house top to
house top, our flag Went up over the Palace, amidst
thousands of huzzas, and thus the goal was won.—
That same evening, a message came to me that
Pepita was aick and dying, and wished to see me.
I went to .her house. It was near the Paseo.
where, the day before, was such a scene of carnage
and death. Now these was no fluttering mantilla
from the Baleen above, as in times gone—no tender
eyes of welcome turned down to me as I entered
the well remembered sofa, but all was quiet and
melancholy, and glodmily pathetic. .
Her mother met me at the door, and in a few
words told me, that during the conflict of the pre
vious day, Pepsta had been near her lover most of
the time. "During the noon, when the American
forces haft made the' attack on the Garita of San
Belen, the, same ball that sped Don Carlos to death,
wounded Pepita. She was brought home by some
commiserating soldiers, and her medical attendant
pronounced her beyond recovery, She wished to
see me r e she died.
I passed within the room, and sat at the bed side
where lay the Pepita of many a moon-lit walk—
many a gay tertilua—yes so wan and weary and
death embraced now. She looked at me intently;
some tears gathered to the eye, but there was no
utterance from the lip which I saw struggling with
voiceless feeling. Her hair was loose, and lay in
curls about the pillow, and hall hid her face; and
that lace was pale and thin, and more beautiful than
ever—for I saw on it that holy light which heaven
sometimes lends to the dying.. Sad sight it is to
see on young cheeks that languor which is the sure
presage of the death coldness no love warmth can
chase away. It appears hard to hide away in earth
the grace and charm of a young life; and I wonder
ed •then at the mysterious Providence that could
give such beauty to reit it away so soon. •
The arm that lay stretched outside the sheet was
raised and laid on mine. I took her hand and lean
ed over it in voiceless sorrow. The mother at first
stood at the beds foot, and then came nearer and
kneeled down, hiding the tears that were on her
cheeks in Hie hair that lay robe like near.
"It is well nigh over—l shall go soon;' and Pep
ha's voice, as she said this, was tremulous, but
clear, low toned, and inexpressibly plaintive. I
could not reply—l only looked with tearful eyes on
the meek face that was turned to me.
"He has gone before," she resumed, "and some
thing whispers me to follow. Nay, no tears! I
wouldMot:live, now that all is over with hope and
love."
Here she looked to her mother, whose weeping
was painfully' audible. Pepita turned to her, and
struggling to reach her, said—
• "Kiss me, mother;" and then there \ r 2 ,1 S a silence
again, broken only by the sobs that could not be
stilled.
A little while after, a priest arrived, arrayed in
a habiliment of white, on the front of which was
embroidered a scarlet cross, I had heard the tink
ling of the bell that announced the coming of the
Host, and as it ceased at the door, I kuew that the
impressive viaticum was about to be celebrated.
Kneeling, all, the solemn rites began. Pepita's
lace wore a strangely serious look, yet a smile
struggled through—richer in the promisf of the im
mortality to which she was hastening, than creed.
or cross, or priest. Solemn consignment of the poor
impatient bark to the sea of eternity, was that fare
well; and oh! in that other world, I believed that
the love the creature knew here, would be perpetu
ated forever—holier, and dearer, and intenser. And
it was more than mere belief to the sad, hopeful
heart that struggled before me. It was certainty
that took all terror from death, making it the trues'
good angel to us—though human fear and mystery
and ignorance give to it the proportions of a devil,
that must necessarily be encountered. Strange! that
men make a horror of that which is the suprethest
goad.
The last act was performed that Romish faith
requires that the devotee should believe as necessary
to the repose of the soul, and we are again alone—
Pepita, het . mother and I:
Yet why should I lift higher the curtain to dis
close the last interview I had with the dying girl
—although so touching and sad in all things that
:sake life beautiful? It was the scene of common
tragedy, and yet the solemnest that humanity is
called upon to act. What reader is there that has
not witnessed an occasion not all unlike? That
bosom knows least of joy that has never felt the
sorrow of a friend's departure from this world. I
pity the heart that has no tie that tends heavenward.
Pepita talked much to me of that one whose life
was the all of the joy promise that earth offered her.
He'had gone, and she wished not to linger on, sur
viving him. She spoke calmly of her own death.
in tones that were only regretful, when she looked
to the bent form of her mother. She gave me a
memento of herself, and in accents of deep, earnest
feeling, begged me never to forget "Poor Pepita."
The night was far gone when I uttered my fare.
well; I gently kissed her forehead, and so we parted
forever.
Two days afterward, I saw her laid in the silent
grave that had been prepared for her. As I
strewed flowers upon the sod, and dashed the tears
away that gathered -not unmanfully to my eyes, I
thought that it earth had lost one so beautiful, hea
ven hadfsained an angel.
A simple braid of hair I preserve still, in mem
ory of "Pooryepita."
Lead Pipet'
We ha• - a several different times called , t , e atten
tion of our readers to the danger of using lead
pipes in water for family use. That this writing
has not been all in vain we are happy to know.—
Yet there are hundreds drinking daily poisoned water,
without a thought of their danger. Or if they hear
an alarm and think, it is but to sneer. As they
have never died, as yet, outright, and they think
they are in no danger. As the - steed has never been
stolen, so he never will be. As the building has
never been burned, so it never will be, &c., &c,—
What fooli-h short sighted reasoning it is; and yet
on it many risk their lives, or their .health that
makes their lives endurable. •
When one is seized with racking pain or dyspep
sia, or other of the many ills that flesh is, heir to,
it is very piously attributed to Providenc_9 l when it
may be owing to one's own criminal carelessness
or negligence. And as we writs-, we have in our
mind those who suffer, and patiently too, and yet
will persist in drinking lead water.
Well, if the humans will drink it, they must, but
let us make another appeal iu behalf of the brutes.
If one has a right—(questionable)—to poison him
self, he has none to poison those animals dependent
entirely upon his care. Let all domestic animate
have pure water.
We have been led to these remarks by seeing a
record from the Germantown Telegraph, of the de
struction of the inhabitants of a fish pond by the
introduction of lead water.
We have," says the editor, a leaden reservoir
kir rain water, holding some fourteen hundred gal
lons, which "`contains water some eight or nine
months in ttelear. At the beginning of Decem
ber last, fearing the effect of the frost upon the
pipes, the water was let out as usual to the amount
of five or. six hundred gallons, which ran into a fish
pond, containing at the same time two thousand
gallons of other water. The effect was Instanta
neous upon the fish. Inless than twenty-four hours,
the whole of them, some ten dozen, with the ex
ception of about half a dozen—died. Some of them
were catfish of large size, which are regarded as
among the vary, hardest species. The half dozen
were saved by removing them from the pond. On
one occasion a gold fish was put in a tub of this
water, and it no sooner entered it than it sprang
over the side of the vessel, and when replaced, soon
died.
"Though these are simple occurrences, they
bear very strongly against the use 81 leaden pipes
for the conveyance of water for cooking and drink
ing purposes."—Granite Farmer.

CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, MAY 31, 1853.
It is Not always May.
The sun is bright, the air is clear,
The darting swallows soar end sing,
And from the stately elms I hear ,
The blue bird prophesying Spring.
So blue yon winding river flows,
It seems an outlet from the sky,
Where waiting till the west wind blows,
The freighted clouds at anchor lie.,
All things are new ; the buds, the leaves,
That gild the elm's nodding crest,
And even the nest beneath the eaves;
There are no birds in last year's nest !
All things rejoice in young, and love
The fulness of their first delight!
And learn from the first heavens above
The melting tenderness of night.
Maiden, that read'st this simple rhyme,
Enjoy thy youth, it will not stay ;
Enjoy the fragrance of thy prime,
For 0! it is not always May'!
Enjoy the Spring of Dive and Youth.
To some good angel leave the rest;
For Time will teach thee soon'the truth,
There are no birds in last year's 'nest !
The Arab Horse.
Layard, the explorer of NinevA, who is as fa
miliar with Arabs as he is with antiquities, gives,
in his late work on Assyria, some curious details
respecting the true horse of the desert. Contrary
to the popular notion, the real Arabian is celebra
ted less for unrivalled swiftness .than for extraordi
nary powers of endurance, Its usual paces are but
two—a quicx walk, often averaging four or five
miles an hour, and a half-running canter; for only
when pursued does a Bedouin put his mare at full
speed. It is the distance they will travel in emer
gency, the weight they will carry, and the compar
ative trifle of food they require, which render the
Arabian horses so valuable.
Layard says that he knew of a celebrated mare
which had carried two men in chain armor beyond
the reach of some Aneyza pursuers. This mare
bad rarely more than twelve handfuls of barley in
twenty-four hours, excepting during the spring
when the pastures were green; and it is only the
mares of the wealthy Bedouins that get even this
allowance. The consequence is that, except in the
spring, the Arab horse is lean and unsightly. They
are never placed under cover during summer, nor
protected from the biting winds of the desert in
winter. The saddle is rarely-taken from their backs..
Cleaning and grooming
are strang ers to them.--
They sometimes reach fifteen ban ds in height, and
never ta , : below fourteen. In disposition they are
docile as lambs, requiring no guide but a halter :
yet in the flight or pursuit their nostrils become
blood-red, their eyes glitter with fire, the neck is
arched, and the mane and tail are raised and spread
out to the wind ; the whole animal becomes trans
formed.
The vast plains of Mesopotamia furnish the best
breeds, and those breeds are divided into five racers
of which the original. stock was the Roheyleh. The
most famous belong either to the Shamrner or to
the Aneyza tribes. Their pedigrees are kept scru
pulously, and their value is so great that a thor
oughly bred mare is generally owned by ten or even
more persons. ft is not often that a real Arabian
can be purchased. The reason is that on account
of its fleetness and powers of endurance it is inval
uable •o the Bedouin, who, once on its back, can
defy any pursuer but a Shammat or Aneyza with
a swifter or strange' mare than his own. An Amer
ican racer, or even an English hunter, would break
down in those pathless deserts almost before nn
Arabian became warmed up to its work. Where
thorough .bred mares have been sold they have
brought as high as six thousand dollars ; but these
it is understood are not of the best race. The Arab
who sells his mare can do nothing with his gold,
and can not ever keep it, for the next Bedouin of a
hostile tribe who comes across his path, and who
has retained his mare, will take it from him and
defy pursuit. Layard thinks that no Arabian of
the blood has ever been seen in gland. if this
is so we can scarcely suppose that any have come
to America, but must believe the so-called Arabi
ans given to our Government, at various times, to
be of inferior breeds. Rarely, indeed, are the thor
ough-breeds found beyond the desert. It will be a
subject of regret, to those who admire fine horses,
to learn that the Arabian is considered to be degen
erating, the consequence of the subjugation of Ara
bia. and the decline of the Bedouin tribe.—Phila.
Bulletin.
Meadow May.
Meadow hay, if intended for winter loud for
stock of any kind, should never be allowed to stand
till fully ripe. By remaining in the field till it be
came mature, it requires a hard and wiry character
which ensures its being rejected by most animals
when not actually compelled by hunger; and is, in
deed, fit for little else besides litter, or bedding. By
cutting—the period of inflorescence, perhaps, indi
cates with sufficient general accuracy, the most
suitable season for harvesting—making thoroughly
and salting, with from one peck to two pecks of
salt per ton (the quantity in all cases to be gradu
ated in conformity to the use to which it is to be
applied) a very excellent' and salutary winter teed
will be secured.
Sheep do well, perhaps, in most cases much bet
ter on this than on any other. bay. They partake
of it eagerly, and are seldom sick. In some sec
tions where there are extensive salt marshes ap
pended to most of ,the farms, or where salt-hay can
be obtained in almost any quantity, and at a mere
ly nominal price, the wild grasses of meadow and
fresh bog land, possesses less intrinsic value; but
even then it is not by any means to be thrown
away. Even if you have no use for it in your
barn, it will be found an excellent article for ma
nure. When used for this purpose, cart it into your
yards green, or in a partially made condition, and
spread it over the surface, or else pack it away, af
ter "making it" as hay, in some convenient and
unoccupied out-building, to be thrown out occa
sionally during winter, or to supply bedding for
your horses, shag", swine and other animals, and
thus be mixed up with the manure for future use.
But there are few places where a good.crop of wild
hay, will not be of value to the farmer for feeding.
In the interior, it is eminently so, and there is gen:
orally a demand for a much 'larger quantity of it
than most farmers find it practicable to obtain. In
such places, the most imperfect of the wild grasses,
if properly salted, will be found to possess high a
value. It is an error to suppose that long standing
improves the quality of this description of hay.—
The earlier it is cut, after the season of haying
commences, the better. SPRINGFIELD.

DR. JOHNSTON,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, Lon
don, Graduate from one of the most eminent Col
'ages of the United States and the greater part o
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, anc: bashfulness, with
frequent blushing, attended, sometimes, with de
rangement of mind, were cured immediately.
TAKE.' PAR'IICULAR NOTICE
Dr. 'J. addresses all those who have injured
themselves by private and improper indulgencies,
that secret and solitary habits, which rum both
body and mind, unfitting them for either busines
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 Bean, Dyspepsia; Nervous Irrita
bility, Derangement of the Digestive Functions,
General Debility, Symptoms of Consumption, &c
Mentally.—The tearful effects on the mind are
much to be dreaded: Loss of Memory, Confusion
of Ideas, .Depression of Spirits, Evil of" Foreb
oding, Aversion of Society, Self - Distrust, Love of
Sohtude, Timidity, &a; are some of the evils pro
duced- .
NERVOUS DEBILITY
Weakness of the system, Nervous Debility and
premature decay generally arises from the destruct
ive habn of youth, that solitary practice so fatal to
the healthful existence of man, and it is the young
who are the moat apt to become its Victims from
in ignorance of the dangers to which they subject
themselves. Parents and Guardians are often mis•
led with 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 Herr i, 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
istende thousand's who might ha've been of use to
their country, a pleasure to their friends, an orna
ment to society.
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 , devasiations of those terrific
maladies. which result from- indiscretion. Such
persona, 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 thro'
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 talus 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
To STRANGERS.

within the last ten years, and the numerous im

The True Digestive Fluid or Gastric Juice
PftEP AHED trom Rennet, or the Muth Stonylli
ach of the Ox, after directions of BARON Lisnio;
the great Physiological Chemist, by J. S. Hough . ,
ton, M. D., Philadelphia, Pa.
This is a truly wonderful remedy for Indigestion,
Dyspepsia, Jaundice, Liver Complaint, Conmipa
lion, and Debility, curing after Nature's own
method, by Nature's own Agent, the Gastric J uice.
Half a teaspoonful of Pepsin, infused in water,
Will digest or dissolve, Five Pounds of Roast Bev(
in about two hours, out of the stomach.
. Perm is the chief element, or Great Digesting
Principle of the Gastric Juice—the solvent of the
food, the purifying, preserving and stimulating
agent of the stomach and intestines. It is extracted
from the digestive stomach of the Ox, thus form
ing an Artificial Digestive Fluid, precisely like the
natural Gastric Juice in its chemical powers, and
furnishing a complete and perlect substitute for it
By the aid of this preparation, the pains and evils
of Indigestion and Dyspepsia are removed, just Is
they would be by a healthy stomach. It is doing
wonders for dyspeptics, curing cases of Debility,
Emaciation, N ervons Decline, and Dyspeptic Con
sumption, supposed to. be on the verge al the grave
The scientific evidence upon which it is based, is
ID the highest degree curious and remarkable.
SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE,,,
Baron Liebig in his celebrated work on Anima
Chemistry, says: 'An artificial Dicestive Fluid,
analogous to the Gastric Juice, tiny he readily
prepared from the mucous membrane of the stom
ach of the calf, in which various articles 01 food,
as meat and eggs, will be solicited, changed, and
digested, just in the same
. manner as they would
be in the human stomach.'
Dr. Pereira, in his lemons treatise on t' Fond and
Diet," published by Fowler & Wells, New York,
page 35, states the same great fact, and describes
the method of preparation. There are few higher
authorities than Dr. Pereira.
Dr. Combe, in his valuable writi .gs 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 afflibted
with this complaint, finding everything else to lad,
had recourse to the Gastric Juice, obtained Irom
the stomach of living animals, which proved com
pletely successful!."
Dr. Graham, author of the fatuous works on
"Vegetable Diet," says: "It is a remarkable fact
in pligsiology, that the stomachs of animals, mace
rated in water, impart to the fluid the property of
dissolving va. , ous articles of food, and ul effecting
a kind of artificial digestion of them in nowise
diffrfeent Taro the natural digest ire process." ti
AS A DYSPEPSIA
Dr. HOUGHTON'S PEPSIN has produced the
niost marvellous effects, in curwg cases of Debility,
Emaciation, Nervons 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 Pails
delfrhin, New York and Boston alone. These
were nearly all desperate eases, and the cures were
nor only rapid and wonderlel, but permanent.
It is o great Nervous Antidote, and particularly
useful for tendency to Billions disorder, Liver
Complaint, Fever ar - Ague, or badly treated Fever
ana Ague, and tl.e evil effects oh. Quinine, Mer
cury and other urns upon the Digestive Organs,
alter alocg sickness. Also, for excess in eating.
and the too free use of ardent spirits. It almost
reconciles health with iniemprance.
OLD STONIACH 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
inetant relief! A single dose ,emoves all the un
pleasant symptoms; and it only needs to be repeated
short for a time to make these good effects potion

Vomiting, Cramps, Soreness of the pit of the
Stomach, distress after eating, low, cold state of
