OF THE NORTH AMERICAN COLLEGE
.
. . Of 'Health. •
NO MEDICINE his ever been introduced to the A
merican Public, whose virtues have been more
cheerfully and universally acksowleged, than the a
bove named
- )
, . WRIGHT'S INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS.
.
To descant upon their merits, at this late day, would
seem to be wholly unnecessary, , as,very few indeed
who read this article, will be found unacquainted with
the real excellence of the medicine . But if further
proof were wanting to establish the credit of this singu
lar remedy, it might be found in the fact that no medi
car in the country has been so
SHAMELESSLY COUNTERFEITED.
Ignorant and unprincipled men have at various pla
ces, manufactured a spurious pill; and' in order more
completely to deceive the public have made it in out
ward' appearance to resemble the true medicine.—
•These wicked people could never pass off their worth
; esti trash, but for the assistance of certain misguided
storekeepers, who because They can purchaie the spu
'
rious article at a reduced rate,.lend themselves to this
monstrous system of imposition and crime. 4
' The patrons of the above excellent:Pills. will there
fore be on their guard against every kind of imposi
tion, and remember the only genuine Agents in Potts
ville, are Messrs. T. gr... 1. Beatty.. •

ousH--it cannot reform. Kindness and sympathy
alone regenerated the heart. Mrs. Child, in a re
cent letter from New York, tells the following
anecdotes, which she heard at a recent meeting of
the Prison Reform Association.
Is'aae 'f. Hopper, whose life has been one long
lessOn of practicable benevolence, related a few
highly interesting incidenti . whichoccurred while
he was one of the insßectors, of the Philadelphia.
prison. The cordial' response he received from
the audience showed how ripe the public mind is
for humane and salutary,cli z arges in the treatment
of criminals. :z' • .
He said that Mary Xoriis, a middle-aged wo
man, who had been frequently re-committed to
prison, on one occasion begged him to interceed•
for her. that she might go qut. "I am acted,
thou wouldst come back again soon," said he.
~V ery likely, I .expect to be bropoht• back
soon," she said witli stolid indifference of man-
ner.
"They where will he the up,e of leuting thee
out?"
should like to go out. 4 would seem good
to feel free a little while r in the open Qir and the,.
shunshine."
„ But if the enjoys liberty so much why dolt
thou allow thyself to be brought back again?”
‘!llow can I help it? .When I go out of pris
on, nobody will employ me.', No respectable peo
ple will let me CO= into' their houses. I mustgo
to such friend as I have, If they steel or commit
other offence; I• shall be taken up with them.
Whether I am guilty ornot,is of no consequence; -
nobody will believe me inoceat. They wily say
•She is an old convict. Send her back to prison.
That is the best place for her.' 0, yes, I expect
to come back soon. There is no use of tryingto

do better.'
Much affected by her tone of utter hopelessness,
Friend Hopper said, 'But if I cent(' obtain steady
employment-fur thee, where thou wouldst be treo r
ted kindly, and, be paid fp; thy services, Wouldst
hou really try to behave well V
Her countenance brightened, and the eagerly
replied, 'indeed I, would.
The kind-hearted inspector used his influence
to procure her dismissal, and provided a place for
her, as head nurse in a hospital for the poor. She
remained there, more than seventeen years, and
discharged the duties of lier situatton so faithfully
that she gained the respect and confidence of all
who knew her. _ •
Ile likewise told, the story of two lads, one, fif
teen and the other seventeen, who, had been inch]_
cad by a bad father - to swear falsely to gratify his
own revengeful feelings. They_were detected and
sent to prison. 'Then Friend Hopper saw them
arrive at dusk, hand-cuffed and chained together,
their youth and desolate appearance touched his
compassionate feelings. "Be of good heart, .my
lads," said he. "You can retrieve this one falie
step if you but try. • Yon may make 'useful and
, •
respectable men yet." • He took care to place their
away fro'm contagion of those most hardened, in
,vice, and from time to time, he praised. their good
, conduct, and spoke to them encouragingly of the
future. After a while, he proposed to the Board
of Inspectors to reecommeinl them to the Govern=
or for pardon. He met with spine opposition, but
his arguments finally prevailed, and he and.arioth 7
er gentleman were appointed to wait on the Gov
ernor. His repuest was ranted after considerable
hesitation, and then only on condition that worthy
men could be found who Would take them asapp
rwitiees. Friend Hopper 'took the resposibtlity i
and "succeeded in binding ;one of them to a respec
table turner, and the other to a carpenter. After
giving them much good advice, he told them to
come to him whenever they were in difficulty,
and to consider him es a father. ' For a long time ;
they were in the' habit of Spending all their leisure
evenings with him, and Were well pleased to come
in and listed to the reading of instructive hooks. '
These, brothers became respectable and thriving
Mechanics, 'married worthy women, arid brought
up their familiesin 'the paths of sobriety and' use
fulness. in the days of Ittteir prosperity, Friend
' Hopper introduced themto the Oovernor, as the
lads he hail been so much afraid to pardon. The
Magistrate took them 'by - the hand meat cordially
and thanked them for the great ptiblic good they
had done by their excellent example :

that it alone can they reach the
