A INTIM% PRAYER IN ILLNESS.
BY MRS. osilOOD
'Y2B I take them &et, my Father! Let my doves
Fold their white 'wings in Heaven, safe on thy
breast,
'Ere lam called away! I dare not leave
Their young hearts here, their innocent, thought-
less hearts I
Ah ! how the shadowy train of future ills
Comes sweeping down life's vista, as I gaze!
My May ! my careless ardent-tempered May !
My frank and frolic child! in whose blue eyes
Wild joy and passionate woe alternate rise ;
Whose cheek, the mourning in her soul illumes;
Whose tittle, loving heart, a word, a glance,
Can away to Rid" or glee; who leaves her play
And puts up her sweet mouth and dimpled arms
Each moment, for a kiss, and softly asks
ith a clear, flute-like voice, "Do you love me ! ,2
Ah ! lel me stay ! ah, let me still be by,
To answer her, and meet her warm caress I
For, I away, how oft, in this rough world,
That earnest question will be asked in vain!
low oft that eager, passionate, petted heart
Will shrink abashed and chilled, to learn, at length,
The hateful, withering lesson of distrust !
Al, ! let her nestle still upon this breast,
In which each shade that dims her darting fake
Is felt and answered, as the lake reflects
The clouds that cross - yon smiling Heaven !
And thou,
My . modest Ellen ! tender, thoughtful, true;
Thy soul attuned to all sweet harmonies;
My pure, proud, noble Ellen ! with thy gilt:,
Of genius, grace and loveliness half hidden
'Heath the soft veil of innate modesty :
How will the world's wild discord reach ihy heart,
To startle and appal I Thy generous scorn
Of all things base and mean—thy quick, keen tasfe,
Dainty and delicate—thy instinctive fear
Of those unworthy of a soul so pure
Thy rare, unchildlike dignity of mien,
All—they will all bring pain to thee, my child.
And oh if ever their grace and•goodness meet
Cold l•,•iks and careless greetings, how will all •
The I..tent evil yet undisciplined
In their young, timid souls, forgiveness find 1
Forgiveness and forbearance, and soft chitlings,
Which.l, their mother, learnfd, of. love, to give,
Ah lit me stay ! albeit my heart is weary,
Weary and worn, tired of its own 'sad beat,
That finds no echo in this buss world
Which cannot pause to answer—tired, alike, '
Of joy and sorrow—of the day and night!
Ah ! take them riser, my Father! and then me;
And for their eakes—for their sweet sakes, my
Father!
Let me find rest beside them, at Thy feet!
SOLOMON SWALLOW,
THE WOMAN TAMER
" Rule a wife and have a wife."
Solomon Swallow was a bachelor, and a rusty
one too ; tint nevertheless he had made up his mind
to cr , , , !hing, that he was the only man living who
had acquired any knowledge of the art of taking
care of a wife. " All the married men are dolts,"
was Solomon's constant asievration. "There, for
instance, is my neighbor; Tom Tangible •, his wife
makes a sort of a th'ree legged stool of him ; she
moves him in one corner, and then in another, and
sits on him and walks on turn as if he was nobody
in the house; while he, poor man, takes it as easy
as though it was the,most natural thing in the
world. Now if 1 were only Torn Tangible, I'd first
write a series of matrimonal articles, and it Mrs
T. did'nt abide by them, I'd submit her to the whole
some discipline of bread and water and a padlock ;
and might, perhaps, brighten her ideas,tOuchingher
conjugal duties, by the applicatiOn of a good cow
hide. And there again are Evert Easy, Dick Snooks,
and a host more of them in the same condition, but
I, I'm the boy that will set them all right, it they
only follow my example, after I have condescend
ed to endow some fortunate female with the legal
claim to the title of Mrs. Swallow."
Brave Solomon Swallow!
" Well, SolomOn," said a ,neighbor to him one
morning, " as you are always boasting of your skill
in managing of a wife, how cornea it that you are:
not married ?,'
" Why, because I have not perfected my system
You poke your head into the noose without ma
king any preparation, and hence Mrs. Everty makes
what she likes 91 you. But Igo to work logically
I begin by studying the erudite works of Zingru
bozo, "On the philosophy of woman's holding her
tongue." I then read several treatises "on the ef
fect of bread and water dicipline. in making good
'wives." Shakeapeare's "Taming a Shrew," fur
nished me with a few excellent lessons. And I am
now generalizing all their systems intoone, which
shall carry the sway in all luture generations, and
convert the plague of matrimony into a blessing.—
In the course of a year or so," added Solomon, "my
rules (or the regulation of a woman (I intend to
publish tjaem.) will be completed, and then I shall
take me a wile."
. .
And Solomon was as good as his word, for at
the age of thirty-five, (feeling himself prepared to I
give battle to any woman in or out of the land of
Amazons,) he got married. At this important pe
riod, Solomon was as puffy, comfortable looking a
little fellow as you'd meet in a day's walk; for al
beit the crown of his head never stood full five feet
from the heel of his boots, he was of proportions
that would have done honor to an alderman, or
even a lord mayor ; and his gait, ( especially
when walking with anything in the likeness of a
woman,) was as pompous as a Sultan's, while at
such times his countenance always, assumed at ex
pression that could not have brooked the approach
of female familiarity; The lady whom Solomon
had-chosen foi his " worser half," was apparently
a lamb like creature, so that the chances were very
fair that she would not only be a tractable wile,
,but that Solomon would require no help from his
system to make her so.
Now Solomon had the forbearance not to inter
fere with his lady's sayings and doings'at the wed
ding, nor is it recorded that he assumed especial
authority on the next night either, but about six
o'clock next merning, he softly insinuated to his
sleeping partner that it was time to get up.
" And,' he added," when breakfast is ready, you
may come and tell me', but be sure and not burn
the toast."
" Breakfast and toast," said Mrs. Swallow, "why,
what do you mean,"
" Why, my dear, I mean, madam, that 1 have be
gun my system.",
"And won't you get up, too?"
" Yes when breakfast is ready, and my stockings
aired."
As. Swallow was ;bout to reply, but she
checked herself; as'she was ashamed to say much
to him on so short an acquaintance; but though
in the present instance she did preciselyas she was
bid, she resolved in her heart that it was the last
time she would get up at six o'clock in the morn
ing to prepare breakfast.
At eight o'clock, everything being ready, Mrs.
Swallow called Mr. Swallow. •
" Breakfast is ready, Mr. Swallow."
"Is the toast made V
"Yes."
" Not burned?'
"No." •
"Are my stockings aired!"
" Yes."
" You'll do, quoth Mr. Swann w," and to break
fah! he went, having received the services of the
blusa,g Mrs. Swallow to assist him in dressing.
The breakfast, however, did not turn out to be
the thing it had been dracked up for. The toast
was done a little too mush, and the tea waslit done
quite enough, the slop'bowl was at the wrong end
of the tray; and there were several crumbs on the
carpet.
" The servant has'nt been here this morning,'
observed Mrs. Swallow.
"Servant r returned Solomon," I discharged her
yesterday. You don't think I can afford to keep a
servant and a wife, too V
The lady was again posed,and said nothing; but
the day wore to its close before she brought herself
to the belief that Mr. Swallow had actually made
use of the words " servant " and wile" in the same
sentence.
The next morning=at six o'clock, Mr. Swallow
again informed his wife that it was time to get up,
coupling the remark with the suggestion that in
In
tore she must save him the trouble of reminding
her of so necessary a duty.
Mrs. Swallow, however, benefited nothing by
this soft insinuation, for at that moment she either
was, or pretended to be, fast locked in the arms of
Morpheus.
"Don't you hear, Mrs. Swallow ?" quoth Sollo
mon.
But alas! a slight consciousness was the, only re.
eponse from Mrs. SwallSw.
Now.this was a ticklish point with Solomon, but
be was prepared for it—" What says my system on
this 'need said he to himself musingly. "It says
that a lazy wife who lays abed in the morning, may
be very properly reminded of her duty by the ju
dicious application of a coercion pin." And this
magnificent tdea had scarcely crossed the threshold
of his brain pan, than he.inserted the point of a huge
pin in the right arm of the sleeper. As might be
expected, the intended effect instantly followed the
cause, for the astonished Mrs. Swallow sprang from
the bed as though she had beet', thrown from it by
an earthquake. But, alas! herwas. too
strikingly manifested, for she not only all but anni
hilated poor Solomon in rolling over hiln, but she
(lashed his -pater.t lever from the nail which sus
pended it to the wall, and broke the dial into a
thousand pieces.
.What a dreadful dream," ejaculated Mrs. Swal
low, pressing her left hand on the wounded arm.
"What a dreadful reality," 'shouted Mr. Swallow,
contemplating the fragile ruins of his demolished
time piece.
Here we pass over the interval between this oc
currence and the time when the happy pair in ques
tion were seated at breakfast.
"Now Mrs. Swallow,"
said Solomon, "seeing that
I can't lie awake to call you up in the morning or
eat burnt toast, or drink raw tea, &c., it is time I
shOuld begin to instruct you in your duties."
l'And what are those, Mr. Swallow?"
"Be silent, madam, if you please, not to talk but
to listen, is one of (he most important of them."
"Proceed, sir."
And Mr. Swallow looking daggers at her for the
second interruption proceeded - :
"From six till eight, you are to get up, dress
quietly, so as to create no disturbance, light a fire,
air clothing and stockings, sweep rooms, prepare
breakfast, and announce the perfection thereof.—
Eight till ten, wash tea things, make beds, rub fur
. iture and wash windows. Ten to twelve, go to
mai k,t, and prepare dinner. Twelve to two to de
vote to dish washing, sweeping up and rubbing up
furniture. Two to six, spinning, mending clothes,
and darning stockings. Seven, tea. From that
time till nine, a second course of mending and darn
ing, and then en , to bed! And this daily course,
madam, with a strict observance of the rules of ci
vility, frugality, decorum, and obedience, may in
time enable you to do honor to the choice of Solo
mon Swallow."
"Mrs. Swaillw listened quietly to the end, and
then meekly inquired:
"And do you really expect this of me Mr. Swal
low?"
"To be sure I do," responded her spouse.
"Then you'll be sadly disappointed, for I'll do no
such thing.'
"No?"
"I have a way to make you."
"HoW ?•'.
"Spoon diet, locks, chains, and cowhide."
"Mr. Swallow !"
What ?"
"You're a brute!" and Mrs. Swallow threw her
self back, and looked desperate.
Now this was a climax. Mr. Swallow was call
ed a brute at his own fireside, and by his own wife,
which was the worst of all. He, Solomon Swal
low, the celebrated founder of a system of Matri
monial Observations, called a brute, and by no less
a person than Mrs. Swallow. At first he was so
astonished at such open manifestation of rebellion
to his royal will, that he only looked aghast; but
when he came to himself, he saw that something
Must be done at once; or the field was lost forever.
"You call me a. brute, Mrs. Swallow ?"
"I did, Mr. Swallow."
"A brute?"
"A brute."
"I'll go mad and break things, Mrs. Swallow."•
"As you like sir."
And Mr. Swallow did go mad, but he had a meth
od in his madness, fbr he seized the cheapest article
of delf that was on the table, (an old plate with a
crack in it,) and dashed it into a thousand pieces
on the hearth, as if he was in a tremendous passion.
"How do you like that, Mrs. Swallow?"
"Vastly, Mr. Swallow try it again."
And again he did try it, (for he had become
monstrous desperate), and he demolished the cream
jug.
"Now," said the lady, "it is my turn," and
jumping pp she sent the slop bowl to keep compa
ny with its tea table companions.
This was of course Itoo much for Solomon; it
snapped asunder the last remaining chord of the
little reason he had left, and he slapped his help
mate—we use the word in its most positive term
—on her right cheek; but scarcely had the echo of
the blow melted into silence, ere the indignant
dame seized the tea pot and shivered it into atoms
against the head of the devoted Mr. Swallow. Nor
was this all, for as he was rolling heels over head
from the effect of the awful collision, she plied the
remainder of the tea traps, until there was scarcely
a bone in his body which had not echoed to the
shock of. cups and saucers, and rounds of buttered
toast.
Unable to carry the war on any longer for that
day, Solomon gathered himself up as well as be
could, and vowing vengeance, he stuck his pipe in
mouth and his hands in his pockets, and then com
menced whistling a jig to the tune the old cow died
on, looking as if he could bite a piece out of
the griddle, without setting his teeth on edge.—
His good lady, tor, being determined to follow the
example of her lord and master in other matters
besides the delf breaking, placed another chair back
to back with Solomon's, and after providing her
self with a novel, sat herself dovin, and began read
ing away, as if, there was no such thing as beds to
make or stockings to mend, in all Christendom.
Here this affectionate couple sat for six mortal '
hours, each bent upon sitting the other down, and
ruminating the while upon their relative po3ttion.
But it must be confessed that Mrs. Swallow had
the best of the bargain, for independent of Solo
mon's mangled bead, par boiled neck and shoulders,
she saw as clear as mud, that the watch dial and
the crockery must be replaced. so that the reducing
of the first chapter in this voluminous system to
practice must be attended with an outlay of at
least twenty dollars.. This being the case, I might
as well be hung for a sheep as a lamb, thought he,
and with that he rose from his chair, stole softly
from the room; and turned the key upon the gentle
Mrs. Swallow.
The turning of the key made her aware of his
intention, when she rushed to the door, but it was
too late.
'Open the door this instant Mr. Swallow..
"Not until I have kept you here, for seven days
upon bread and water," returned the victorious Sol
omon, as he went on his way rejoicing.
But alast how fleeting is human greatness—in
about half an hour he returned to see how matters
were going, but scarcely put his eye to the keyhole
when he began roaring like -a bull, for Mrs. Swal
low had torn every one of his fine linen shirts (that
on his back excepted) into pieces, to make a rope
to let herself down from the wipdow ; nor was this
all, for upon further examination, be discovered
that she had also thrown a variety of chair cnsh
ions, bed linen, &c., into the dirty yard, to make
her descent safe.
0! chop-fallen Solomon Swallow.
The archives of the Swallows are silent auto the
remaining occurrencea'of this eventful day, but on
the very' next morning, about seven o'clock,.Mr.
Swallow popped his head Irvin under the blanket,
and said, " Mrs. Swallow, dear,, isn't it time to get

\ "Yes," retuned t h e lady, " mad you may nil pm

when you have lit the fire and' put on the kettle." I
Poor Solomon! There was no alternative. So
he set about his work with an alacrity which
showed that he bad the terror of a broken head
and demolished body linen, running strongly in his
memory. In short, Solomon was a conquered man.
That day he prepared breakfast, swept the room,
&c. The next his assistance was required in the
rubbing of the furniture and the making of befits;
before the week was out, he was initiated into the
mystery of washing coarse towels.
Degenerate Solomon Swallow! Nay iu after
times, when the Swallows used to gather about
him, it is whispered that his better half used to
employ him at yet mole deeply conjugal offices.
But for this we have no proof; only the fact that
he was the only nurse Mrs. Swallow would trust
with the children.
About five years after the celebration olhis nup
tials a friend called to see him.
"You must go with me to the theatre Mr. Swal
low," said the friend.
"He shant," said Mrs. Swallow.
" He must," said the friend, "and so must you."
"I may, but he can't replied"the dame, for he
must stop at home with the children.
Arid Mrs. Swallow did go to the play, and Solo.
mon stopped at home.
0, henpecked Solomon Swallow!
The moral of this authentic tale is that " bache
lors' wives and old maids' children" are all excel
lent in theory, but as bad as can be in practice—
and that a managed wife is better than no wife a
all. Had Solomon only treated his better half de
cently in the beginning, things might have gone on
smoothly to the end, but as it was'she was compel
led to be Tartar in her own defence, and he had
to take the consequences.
The Little Quakeress.
lA'FIO WAS IN A HURRY TO GET MARRIED
An amusing matrimonial story is told of the old
en time in New England. It so fell out that two
young people became very much smitten with each
other, as young people sometimes do. The young
woman's father was a wealthy quaker—the young
man was poor but respectable. The father could
stand no such uni_on, and resolutely opposed it, and
the daughter dare not disobey openly. She 'met
him by moonlight,' while she pretended never to
see him—and she pined and wasted in spite of her
self.
She was really in love. Still the father was in
exorable. Time passed on. She let no conceal
ment like a 'worm in the bud prey,' on that damask
cheek, however; but when her father asked why
she pined, she always told him. The old gentle
man was a widower, and loved his girl dearly.—
Had it been a widowed mother who had Mary in
charge, a woman's pride never would have given
way before the importunities of a daughter. Man
are not, however, so stubborn in such matters, and
when the father saw that his daughter's heart was
.really set upon the match, he surprised her one day
by breaking out—" Mary, rather than mope to
death, thee had better marry as soon as the chooses
and to whom thee pleases.
And then what did Mary do? Wait till the
birds of the air bad told her swain of the change,
or until her father had time to alter his mind again?
Not a bit of it. She clapped hea neat plain bonnet
on her head, walked directly into the street, and
then as directly to the house of her intended as the
street would carry her. She walked into the house
without knocking—for knocking was not then fash
ionable, and she found the family just sitting down
to dinner: Some little commotion was exhibited
at so unexpected an apparition as the heiress in the
widow's cottage, hut she heeded it not. John looked
up inquiringly. She walked directly up to him and
took,both of his hands in here. John got directly
up from the dinner table And went to the parson's

A VALUABLE COW
Mn. EDITOR :—As I know you are favorable to
the interests of our farmers, it may give you Oleo-
sure to hear of a successful operation in the dairy.
Mrs. Jane V. Craven has a cow whose praises de
serve to be, sung by some gifted bard. Her last calf,
which was handed over to the butcher about the
middle of April, weighed two hundred pounds, be.
ing only four weeks and a half old. Sine that
time, " Bossy," though sick or three days with the
"hollow Horn," has given milk enough to supply
a family of four grown persons, who are not spar
ing in their use of the wholesome drink, and to
make besides from eight to twelve pounds of fine
rich butter per week. For some time past, she has
been feed on grain or meal of any description ; yet
last week, in addition to supplying the wants for
puddings and custards, coffee and tea, rtiush, &c,
there was churned from her twelve pounds and a
quarter, more than the full weight; and the week
before, eleven pounds and five or six ounces. If the
products of the two weeks had been liieighed in the
mass, they would have amounted to more than
twenty-four pounds. Perhaps other cows may be
found, who do better than this; but it is well to no.
lice more than ordinary success in this branch of
husbandry, that encouragement may be given to our
dairywomen to bring their animals to the highest
possible perfection. Yours, truly.

Sacoan MARRIAGES.-It is remarked that wid
ows and widowers marry more readily than those .
who have never entered matrimony. This is one
of the greatest compliments to married life that
could be bestowed upon it. Were a man not to
marry a second time, it might be concluded that
his first wife had given him a disgust to marriage;
but by taking a second wife he pays the Highest
compliment to the first, by showing that she made
him so happy as a married man, that he wished to
be so-a second time.
CONJUGAL AFFECTION Or A TUROR.-At St. Louis,
during a murder trial, one of the jurors, on adjourn-
ment, went home, instead of going to the jury room.
The court, the next morning, took him to task for
his conduct, when he replied that he had been a
married man•lor twelve years, and had never been
away from his wife one night in the whole of that
time, and that he found it utterly impossible to
be absent from her. The judge fined the delinquent
$5O for his conjugal affection, which was afterward
commuted to three days' imprisonment in jail
risafoNizum CEITIMIES.—Dow, Jr., the eccen
tric preacher, in alluding to the exclusion of many
would-be church goers from the sanctuary, by rea
son of the enormously high pew rents in our fash
ionable churches, characteristically remarks—"Ther
is a high duty on the fashionable waters oilldivine
grace, and you have a penny a nibble at the bread
of We. To go to church in any kind of tolerable
style, costs a heap every year, and I know very
well why a majority of you go to Belzebub, because
you can't afford to go to heaven at the present exhor
bitant prises."
QvEnv Viaronra..—The London correspondent
of the New York Sunday Times thus describes
Queen Victoria, who has just celebrated her thirty
fourth birthday:
"She fully looks her age. The family tendency
to stoutness has recently developed itself in her, and
she is getting vulgarly fat. The fact is, she takes
little exercise, has a mind not easily troubled by
trifles, and has a great appetite. Her food is of the
plainest, but she eats heartily, and bottled stout is
her "favorite vanity.".
PRICE 07 ♦ Kiss.—Wm. L. Hines kissed Mrs.
Gorham, in East Boston, the other day. She sued
him for damages, for value res,hed, but didn't ap
pear on the return day, havii,e; been satisfied by a
cash paynient of $l5. This may be set down as
the Boston market price of kisses. The last decis

First-rate Story for Lawyers
Whether Lawyers, Doctors, and the othempro
fessions, should have a distinct department in a
newspaper, has not yet been decided by any of our
Debating Societies or Tea-table Clubs; but despite
of authority in all•tuch cases acknowledged, we de
vote a part of a column to the good of the Gentle
men of the Green Bag.
Every lawyer of any note has heard and read of
the celebrated Luther Martin, of Maryland. His
great efforts in the case of Aaron Burr, as well as
his displays in the Senate of the United States, will
not be forgotten. Trifles in the history of genius
are important,• as we hope to show in the story.
Mr. Martin was on his way to Annapolis, Md.,
to attend the Supreme Court of the State. A soli
tary passenger was in the stage with hirn, and, as
the weather was extremely cold, the passengers
soon resorted to conversation to divert themselves
from too much sensibility to the inclement air.—
The:young man knew Mr. Martin by sight, and as
he also was a lawyer, the thread of the talk soon
began to spin itself out of legal matters.
Mr. Martin," said the young man, "I am just
entering on my career as a lawyer; can you tell
me the secret of your great success? If, sir, you
will give me from your experience, the key to dis
tinction at the Bar, I will —"
" Will what?" asked Mr. Martin
" Why, Sir, I will pay your expenses while you
are at Annapolis," replied the young disciple.
" Done," responded Mr. Martin. " Stand to your
bargain now, and I'll furnish you the great secret
of my success as a lawyer."
The young man assented.
" Very well," said-Mr. Martin. " The whole rea
son of my success is contained in one little maxim,
which I early laid down to guide me. If you fol
low it you cannot fail to succeed. It is this: Al
ways be surr of your evidence."
The listener was very attentive—smiled—threw
himself back in a philosophic posture, and gave
his brains to the analysis in true lawyer patience,
of "Always be sure of your evidence."
It was too cold a night for anything to be made
peculiarly out of the old man's wisdom, and so the
promising adept in maxim-learning gave himoll
to stage dreams, in which he was knocking and
pushing his way through the world by the all-pow
erful words: " Always be sure of your evidence."
The morning came, and Mr. Martin with his
practical student, took rooms at the best hotel of
the city. The only thing peculiar to the hotel, in
the eyes of the young man, was the fact that all
the wine bottles and the etceteras of fine living, seem
ed to recall very vividly the maxim about the evi
dence. .
- --t4t. Where
The young man watcl
ever eating and drinking were concerned, he was
indeed a man to be watched, especially in the lat
ter. as he was immoderately tend of the after-din
ner, alter-supper, alter-everything, luxury'of wine.
A few days were sufficient to show the incipient
legalist that he would have to pay dearly to make
the most of his part of the contract. Lawyers,
whether young or old, have legal rights, god so the
young man began to think of the study of self-pro•
tection. It was certainly a solemn duty. It ran
through all creation. Common to animals and
men, it was a noble instinct not to be disobeyed,
particularly where the hotel bills of a lawyer were
concerned. The subject daily grew on the young
man. It was all-absorbing to mind and pocket.
A week elapsed, and Mr. Martin was ready to
return to Baltimore. So was the young man, but
not in the same stage with his illustrious teacher.
Mr. Martin approached the counter in the bar
room. The young man was an anxious spectator
near him.
'•Mr. Clerk," said Mr. Martin, "my young friend
Mr. -, will settle my bill, agreeably to en
gagement."
The young man said nothing, but looked every

He is pledged, professionally pledged, to pay my

"Where's your evidence?" meekly asked the young
man.
" Evidence ?" sneered M:. Martin. .
" Yes, sir," said the young man, as he compla
cently responded, "Always be sure, Mr. Marlin, of
your evidence. Can you prove du bargain?"
Mr. Martin saw the snare, and pulling out his
pocket-book, paid the bill, and with treat good-hu

get through the world with your profession with
out advice from me."
The young man thought so too.

Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, Lon

whose life has been spent in the Hospitals of Lon

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
lrequent blushing, attended, sometimes, with de
rangement of mind. were cured immediately.
TAKE PAR'I ICULAR NOTICE
Dr. J. addresses all those who have Injured
themselves by private and improper indulgencies
that secret and solitary habits, which ruin bolt
body and mind, unfitting them for either busiries
or society.
These are some of the sad and melancholy el
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.
[station of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous Irrita.
bilay, 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, Contusion
of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil of Forebo
ding, Aversion of Society, Self Distrust, Love of
Solitude, Timidity, &c. are some of the evils pro
duced.
NERVOUS DEBILITY
Weaknestrof the system, Nervous Debility and
premature decay generally arises from the destruct
ive-habit of youth, that solitary practice so fatal to
the healthful existence of man, apd it is the young
who are the most apt to become its Victims from
an ignerance 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 often do they
ascribe to other causes the wasting of the frame,
Palpitation of the Hea ~ Dyspepsia, Indigestion,
Derangement of the Nervous System, Cough and
Symptoms of Consumption, also those serious
Mental effects, such as lose 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 Is
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
ment to society.
WEAKNESS OF THE ORGANS

immediately cured and lull 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.
thoolo 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,ulighted with our own. Let no false delica
cy prevent you, but apply immediately. .
He who places himself under the Grim of Dr
JOHNSTON, may religiously confide in his hon
or as a Gentleman, and confidently rely upon his
shill as a Physician •

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

again and again before the public, is a sufficien ,

The True Digestive Fluid or Gastric Juice
PREPARED from Rennet, or the lourth Storm
ach of the Ox, alter directions of BARON Limo:
the great Physiological Chemist, by J. S. Hougb;
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 teaspoonful of Pepsin, infused in water,
will digest or dissolve, Five Pounds of Roast Beef
in about two hours, out of the stomach.
PErsis is the chief element, or Great Digesting
Principle of thi Gastric Juice—the solvent of the
food, the purifying, preserving and ettmulatiug
agent of the stomach and intestines., It is extracted
from the digestive stomach of the Ox, thus term
ing an Artificial Digestive Fluid, precisely like the
natural Gastric Juice in its chemical powers, and
furnishing a complete and perfect substitute for it
By the aid of this preparation, the pante and evils
of Indigestion and Dyspepsia are removed, just as
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
to the highest degree curious and remarkable.
SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE!
Baron Liebig In his celebrated work on Anima
Chemistry, says: ''Ae 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 various articles of food,
as meat 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 famous treatise on " Food 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 titan Dr. Pereira.
Dr. Combe, in his valuable writings on the ,
" Physiology of Digestion," observes that "a dim..
motion of the due quantity of lite Gastric Juice is
a prominent and all•prevaifing cause of Dyspepsia;"
and he stales that "a distinguished professor of
medicine in London, who was severely afflicted
.with this complaint, finding everything else to fail,
had recoursin to the Gastric Juice, obtained from
the stomach of living animals, winch proved com
pletely successfull."
Dr. Graham, author of the famous works on
"Vegetable Diet," says: "Ii ie a remarkable fact
in phgsiology, that the stomachs of animals, mace
rated in water, impart to the fluid the property of
dissolving va. ious articles of food, and of effecting
a kind of artificial digestion of them in nowise
diffrfeent mro the natural digestive process."
AS A DYSPEPSIA CURER,
Dr. HOUGHTON'S PEPSIN has produced the
most marvellous effects, in curing 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 certificars have been given of more
than Two Hundred Remarkable Cures, in Phila
delphia, New York and Boston alone. These
were nearly all desperate cases, and the cures wore
not only rapid And wonderful, but permanent.
It is a great Nervous Antidote, and particularly
useful for tendency to Billions disorder, Liver
Complaint, Fever ar... Ague, or badly treated Fever
ana Ague, and the evil effects of Quinine Mer
cury and other urugs upon the Digestive O rgans, '
after a long sickness. Also, for-excess in eating,
and the too free use of ardent spirits. It almost
reconciles health with intemprance.
OLD STOMACH COD/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.needa to be repeated
short for a,time to make these good 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, Lowneal. of Spirits, Des
pondency, Emaciation, Weakness, tendency to
Insanity, Suicide, &c.
Dr. HOUGHTON'S PEPSIN is sold by nearly
all the dealers in fine drugs and Popular Medicines,
throughout the United States. It is prepared in
Powder and in Fluid form—and in prescription
mistier the use of Physicians.
PRIVATE CIRCULARS for the use of Physicians;
may be obtained of Dr. Houghton or his Agents, .
describing the whole process of preparation, and
giving the authorities upon which the claim of this
new remedy are based. As it is vet a secret remedy
no objection can be raised against its use by Phy•
sicians in respectable standing and regular practice.
Price ONE DOLLAR per bottle.
