VIOETARIANIeIf i WITH A SKETCH OF
TEE LIFE OF 'IRE BEY. WK. KETO&LFE, OF .
THE BIBLE (MEM' lAN OHUROIL—It 'has been
said tbat the 'terms vegitarianism; and dietetics are
somewhat ccorlvalent In meaning. The former is derived
from Latin and Greek words, signifying to be of vigor,
to come to the perk ellen of growth or strength. 'Page.
tarlanitm bee been defined to be the "art and antenna
which teaches man to cull, dispose, and modify for food
these products of the vegetable kingdom only which are
best adapted to produce and sustain a sound mind and a
Sound body." Fruits, roots, herbs, grain, grass, seeds,
unto, dtc., are included in its diet. Eminent men have
thought and declared that a strictly vegetable diet, pro
perly and well selected, lies at the baste of all reform,
whether civil, social, moral, or religions These 'senti
ments and the' e principles have at beet the prestige of
antiquity. Pythagoras, and Porphyry, the Platonic
philosopher, were vegetarians, and a hest of disciples
have propagated the acct, if so it can be called, down to
the preeent period. Dr. Johnson bee said itmen who
drink beer, think beer." Beef and beer being
correlativea in some parte, probably those who oat
beet think beef. On this principle, then, poets
and philOsophers, in all ages, have either altogether ab
stained from flesh food, or desisted for a period,
when they wished their Intellectual firoultlee to be
particularly clear and bright. ' Thus Newton, Byron
Shelley, and Franklin have acted, and hundreds more
equally conscientious, if less renowned. Howard, the
philanthropist, was an abstainer, bread and trait vitiates
constituting hie only dinner. Vegetarians do not deny
that the nee of meat is peculiarly fitted to develop pecu
liar temperaments, and, in haltioking, half-earnest mood,
they permit its use to bunters, trappers, butchers, sot.
diers, pugilists, duellists, hangmen, and lawyers! Physi
cians often declare that too much animal food is eaten,
perhaps twice too much. The diet of some of the princi
pal end most abstemious vegetarians has been , of such
articles as bread, white or brown,..pulse, milk, whey.and
water, cheeae, oatmeal, buttermilk, fruits, Sage, tea, he
ney, and so on. The Berea, a people of India, are said by
Lord Bacon to have lived one hundred and thirty years
on wine of palms. Uncooked corn, wheat, and rye, even,
are recommended, awd these again can be parched,
roasted, baked, boiled, or terrified, which consists in
roasting them so slowly as nearly to be burnt; cheat.
nuts, sago, and tapioca are also in use.
A certain text of Fcriptnre furnishes at least a plausi
ble ground for the peculiar principles of vegetarians:
"Behold I have given you every herb bearing aced, and
every tree in the field, which is the fruit of a tree
yielding seed ; -to yon it elan be for meat:” , Whatever is
'pleasant to the eight and good for food, they-claim, is
comprised among their eatables and drinkables. At one
of their vegetarian banquet], thirty cooked varieties, not
Including preserves end other eide.disheO z appealed to
the appetite. The first course conerieted of savory
dishee prepared from potatoes, bread,-etc. The second
comes consisted :
of fruit, pies, custards, puddings, and
moulded farina. Peaches, apples, Melons, plume, nuts,
and cakes fotmtd a most delicious and healthful tisa
amt.
That vegetarianism is benevolent in Its Principles few
Call doubt. The Mows long since adopted by the ~Amer
ican vegetarian" eumoiently prove this, and the pre
vailing actions of members of the community are addi
tional attestation. The question hiss frequently been
asked, and by those who most have needed information,
much more for others than themselves, whether animal
food can be abstained from with as much advantage as
narcotics, intoxicating beverages, eta. Can flesh be
entirely abstained from without prejudice, mit& advan
tage? Are not all the spiced dishes of saloons and
restaurants more destructive of the human animal Geo.
ImmY than a total abstinence," even-In regard' to
the simplest kind and preparation of these articles?
Are VI stews" necessary to strength, ithashes " to
hygiene, or beefeteelis to beauty? The range of fad-
Lamina articles is extensive, endue rational vegetarian
asks a restriction to dry bread and water. We should
not hazard much in endorsing the opinions of various
eminent writers, by saying that too much animal food is
Indeed used. • The yearly expenditure for animal food
throughout the United States cannot be precisely fixed,
but certainly amounts to between throe and four hundred
million dollars, probably more than this. Vegetarians,
who are not only strict themselves, but ardent in win
ning others over to thelecause, are peculiarly earnest in
their benevolent endeavors, and their estimates in regard
to the immense Meuse ce capable of being exerted by a
reformation in this particular are no less startling than
argumentative. It ie very true that the Christian Church
le capable of wielding unlimited power by applying the
millions which could thus be saved to the noble uses o
foreign and domestic minions. The advisability of so
doing must, of course, be determined in each particular
case. Common-sense and strong conviction must be the
movers of the will, and pension and appetite be allowed
no supremacy.
Substitutes for various articles now in common use,
either slimulatirg as drinlcables, or more solidly ex=
citing as eatables, have frequently been advocated and
espoused with the happiest success. Experiments have,
of course, with all their failures, given experience; and
though hasty changes are not to be adopted, yet a
• gradual alteration of diet, in particular circumstances,
is wonderfully beneficial. The ripe seed of asparagus
has in many pleas become an immense favorite as a
Substitute for coffee, and totally supplanted this favorite
breakfast beverage. Ia good soils asparagus yields seeds

he considers essential to the health of those who do not
take etroug exelcire. Many kinds of vegeable farina -
aeons food contain double the amount of nutriment,
pound for pound, that average flesh-meat does. Even
the common potato la very nearly as nutritious as the
average of flesle meals, which is estimated at thirty-fire
per cent. Rice, a heat, peas, beans, &c, contain from
eighty to ninety. five per cent. of nutritious matter, so
that a pound of rice has as much nutriment as two and a
half ponnda of average flesh food. A. pound of good
bread, of wheat, has about twice as much. This is ac
cording to chemical analysis. As to the relative amount
of nutriment in the two kinds of food, all well-understood
facts, of actual e7perlence, prove the same thing as che
mical an air BIC
connection with this sisbnact,i,it is appropriate to
speak of the Bible Christians in this city. These are to be
ameingnithed from the Vegetarian Association, which is
not essentially a relit ions body. All the members of the
Bible Christian Church, however. are vegetarians; they
form the Ohrialian nucleus of vegetarianism. There is
but one church of this kind in Philadelphia, and this is
Situated upon Third street, above Girard avenue. Its
pastor was the late Rev. Mr. William Metcalfe, whose
funeral marred on Wednesday last, and of whom, as
being one of the principal movers ei this religious sect,
we propose to give some account.
Re was born at Sproadgill, in the parish of Orton,
Wear:Lorelei:id, Eng' aud, on the 11th of March, 1788.
Re received u good classioal education, completing his
Studies under the tutorage of the Rev. William Cowherd,
who had been Pro °seer of Philology in the college at
Beverly, but was now minister in his own church, King
street, Salford, England. Dr. Cowherd was an eloquent
pulpit orator, and although he advanced dootrines wbloti
at that time were considered by come as too philosophic;
to be called religions, and by others as only the effusion
of superstition, still his church was crowded with an in
intelligent and respectable audience. In 1808 Mr. Met
calfe became a convert to the religions views thus Kinn
dated, and on the 11th of August, 1811, he was ordained
a mlnister ot the Wend of. God. Connected with the Sal
ford church, its founder had instituted a large and com
modious Grammar School and Academy of Sciences. He
presided over the instibitlon, and was assisted by several
eminent teachers, among them the Rev. William Met-
Cairo. Hero he continued to be engaged until the early
part of 1813 Whiiiit thus engaged, however, Mr Met
calfe preached to a small congregation in Addlngbarn,
Yorkshire.
He now (1813) opened a grammar schoolin connection
with his church, in Addinghsm, and hie Services were
apparently much appreciated. He had, however, about
this time, a great desire to emigrate to America; but the
existence of the war banished, for a time, his intentions.
In the rpring of 1817 he embarked for Philadelphia, and
landed safely on the 15th of June. Thirty.elght persons
professing to be members of the Bible-Christian Church,
embarked at the gems time with him. There was also
another minister of the same Church, the Rev. James
Clark, who was included in the number. This latter
gentleman, and a few of hie faithful friends, resolved to
go into the country, get land, and become farmers. Mr.
Wm. Metcalfe remained in Philadelphia, bought out a
School teacher, reared his school and dwelling, intending
to support himself f; and family by teaching, at the same
fulfilling his ministerial tintlesby preaching on the Sab
bath. like the Apostle of old, in his own hired house',"
to as many as were willing to come and listen to his tes
timony. It may, be proper here to state, that of the
tblrty.eight who lefc England with him, as Bible Chris
tians, twenty. Aye loat their zeal in its behalf, and at; the
first opportunity forsook all their professions, and sought
out the liege The first time Holy Sacrament wa s
administered, ill' re warn only semen adults Present, in •
eluding the minister.
Of these eosin the Bev. Wm. Metcalfe and his wife
only remained feithiel. Inducements of almost every
description were held out to Mr. Metcalfe to forsake his
Principles; to live ay the world Ilvisd, or, at least, not to
present temprrance end vegeteuianiam as religious du•
ties. He had c Mos of a school, with a standing, com
fortable salary from ore religious denomination, and from
another the pastorrhiP of a congregation Insuring him a
respectable living. Mr. Metcalfe advertised his religious
meetings; they received the notice and attention, for a
time, of some of the men of note in our city.
He replied to some criticisms In the Freeman= Journal,
Sad thus the ptinenles became more exteneliely known
than they probably could have been by preaching only..
Some of those who bad gone with Mr. Clark returned to
Philadelphia, at d greatly strengthened the efforts of Mr.
Metcalfe by their zeal for the Church. In the spring of
1828 the lot of ground where the church now is, was pur
chased ; a Porstil.ution and by-laws were adopted, and
the church incorporated. A"-frame building wee 014
purchased, remered thereto, and fitted rip SS a church.
On the 21st December, 1823, it was °masa and dedicated
hi the miolster, to the worship of the Creator, Redeemer,
and Regenerator of moo. This building began to decay
so much toward 1815 as to require, either an entire re
novation, or the erection of a new building. The Church
decided upon the Jotter course, and the building now
standing was erwed and the basement was opened for
public worship no the 2d "November, 1845, on which oc
.cadoe appropriate discourses were delivered by Mr,`
Metcalfe. In 1881 he visited London as a delegate to the
wood's Peace convention, at London. Ile visited and

except, perhaps, those relating to the dhicipline of the
Bible Christian Church, This requires its members to

THE TRANSIENT AID ASSOCIATION—
ITS .OBJECTS.—This society is compeeed Of a few
noble hearted ladies and gentlemen tor:the prarposb — of
• giving comfort and aid to the sick and wounded soldiers.
It was organized lad June. Its executive officers are
gentlemen, but the majority of its members ire ladles.
They have been, and will continue to be,preeent at the
arrival of every transpert steamer or care. They go on
board, wash, bathe, and prepare, in the beet manner
palate, the soldiers for their transportation. Under the
direction cf the doctor, they have given refreshing drinks
and beverages to the thirsty and fever•etricken patient,
focd to the hungry, and delicacies and delights to all.
Clothing necessary for the comfort of the soldier, such as
shirts, drawers, pante, sheer, has been distributed
with a generous hand. Handkerchiefs have been given
to each and every one.
It was through the influence of some of the gentlemen
composing this society that a fire company was first in
deeed to send a wagon to aid in transpOrting the suffer
ing patientn. Through the exam de of this one company
°there mat wagons, and soon a rivalry sprang up be
tween the different companies as to which should be
awarded tbe credit of having the best and most com
fortable conveyance. In a little while every company
bad the gently.moving and smooth-running ambulance,
and the maimed and crippled soldier was borne to hie
destination with ease and comfort. The soldiers are now
transported without expense to the Government. The
tends to carry ent the benevolent objects of this aesoola
ten have been, collected by the members. They have
labored with heart and Soul in the good cause, shunning
neither ton nor exertion.
The generous, noble, and benevolent doings of this
society are but little known to the community at large.
It has not had its good deeds and tender mercies publish
ed and spread abroad. Its operations have been almost
hidden from the public. This society does not confine its
labors, to any particular hospital, or place in the city,
but it will send aid or assistance:to the soldier wherever
he may be found. This was the first and is the only
"Transient Aid Association') In the city. Let those
people, then, who honor and respect those men, who
would, if necessary, have given ep their lives for their
country, assist these noble ladies and gentlemen in their
noble and holy work. On Monday next the association
will open a fair at the Hall of the Northern Liberty Flre
Company, corner of Front and Green streets; which will
continue during the whole week. This will bo a tine op
portunity for those who wish to give aid towards a noble
institution of this kind.

IN TERES TING TO FARMERS. -Thee
Vammhaioner of Internal Eevenne at Washington has
been oohed the following question
g Is the farmer who sells cider-brandy, which is dis
tilled from apples—the product of his own farm—required
to obtain a license? In other words, is cider-brandy,
obtained under the above conditions, a farm product?"
lle replies that
4 ;03(1er-brandy cannot be considered a farm product,
even, if made for the fames-who furnishes the apples, and
cannot be sold without a license."
It would Eeem from this that not a barrel of cider
brandy can be cold by anybody Without a license.

Grinned, of Geneva, who, through his agents, has stied
the American manufacturers, but the , matter is still in
litigation. When the return of peace reopens the
Southern markets, a great businese will no doubt be
done—if Mr, Horatio Seemont's friends should not spend
all their money meanwhile.
The albums brought excellent prices. many of the
lines being duplicated, ani some—McKnight &Rat

on the auctioneer's catalegno. •

severe and obstinate.
2d. Flatulence and Acidity.—Those symptoms arise
from the Indigestion of food, triilch ferments Instead of

Bd. Costiveness and Lon of Appetite.—These symp
toms are tire effects of the unnatural condition of food
in the stomach, and the want of pure bile and gastric
juice. The stomach is often painfully distended by wind . ;
the appetite is sometimes voracious.
4th. Gloom and Deprusion of OpiritS.—This state
unfits many for the enjoyment of life, and is ceased by
the impure blood tarnished by imperfect digeetlon. jn
this stage of the disease many persons commit suicide.
There Is a constant foreboding of evil, and an indifference
and positive inability to perform the offices of life.
6th. Diarrhced.--Lfter being at first costive, the suf

* * * *
This battle (Antietam) has been the most sanguinary
of the war, and the only one fought with design and
upon military plinciples. The arrangement of our corps
—the overlooking position of the Commanding General
—the sending into action the right and' the left—the
closing up of the centre and final succees—excitee be-
Wildering admiration, and'carries the mind to the great
field/4°f Austerlitz and Wagram, fought by Napoleon.
Of all thisrhave I eiyaken. The heartAistory of such Et
conflict, purchased by the life and blood - of twenty thou-.
sand men, must be found in the hospitals. War has its
glories—but it haa Its ten thousand demons in these hu
man tortures, that make the eyeballs .ache--the ,heart
bleed—the tins pabsy—and the brain reel. The sight is
at first positively unendurable. The life.bloisi of some
'is still trickling away in silent calmness, while the disse
vered limbs and maniac brain of others giverlse to sounds
God grant I may not again witness. _
But, ye mothers who now seek a son—or wife a hus
band—or sister a brother—or eons a father—know and
be consoled that even here the hand of mercy is watch
ful, and better care Is bestowed upon your loved one
than might at first seem possible. It was in the hospital
where rested the gallant Hooker that I learned the his
tory of those mythical words so often seen and so little
understood, ci B. T.—1860--X." 3 Anything alleviating
the sufferings and saving the lives of our Soldiers is a na
tional blessing. I witnessed some astonishing results
from this article.
It is well known the effect of burnt gunpowder and ex.-
eltement Is thirst, which, added to the loss of blood in the
wounded, creates the neceesity of a reviving stimulant.
In this particular hospital, the physicians were allowing
their " patiente to drink Plantation Bitters, otherwise
called B. T.-1860—X, and although the wounded are
.meet numerous here—this division having opened th
fight at 5 in the morning—the men were mostly com
posed, and there was but very little fainting. The arti

preheneible manner, superior to brandy, and without

principally recommended for want of appetite, disordered

understand it was somewhat known the Bouthern

These gentlemen give the history of certain ingredients

that through all changes of the medical profession and its

been derived from these sources. Dr. Woods, in the
Washington Hospitals, informed me that he had been
unable to produce an hour's sleep in one patient for near

the Plantation Bitters came to his knowledge, when one
day's trial gave him a night's rest, and he was now fest

Medical Men of this and other States, who have been

BOLLES:
BEAD THE FOLLOWING FROM EMINENT M. D's.
The testimony or a Medical Dian of the Old Schools,
thirty years—fifteen years in the Allopathic. School and
fifteen in the Homcecpathic -and hasfor two years since,
being Qualified by Prof. 8., made Electricity a rpecialty,
has cured thousands never benefited by medicines :
Borne five months ago I wee attracted by a osrd of
Professor Bolles, No i 220 Walnut street, Philadelphia,
claiming a discovery that he had =dein the use and ap
plication of the various forms and modifications of Elec
tricity for the cure of all odrable diseases. I called on
this gentlemen, and after listening to his theory of the
Electrical laws governing life, health and disease, and
hie discovery in the application of Electricity in accord
ance with the polarities of the brain and nervous system,
I was impressed that he had something new, and at once
applied for instructions oa the subject. I now speak
from experience, as I have remained in his office for two
months, watching the result of his operations and having
myeels the charge or one of the treatingrooms for nearly
the wi ole time, and treated from twelve to fifteen cases
comprisingi :Hefty every kind and grade of chronic
disease. Although my expectations were high, I must
confess they have been fully realized. I have seen a
greetnumber of patients who had availed themselves of
the best medical skill and retacdial agents for years—
cases I well knew. to be incurable by all other known
remedies—permanently cured by a few applications of
Eleciricity ; and whet has surprised me moat, was ..
rapid improvement a.. such mules,
. to injure. I feel impelled by a
Knee of duty to caution tke priblio against the indiscri
minate nio of Electricity", as I have known injury to re
sult from its use, in the handl . of the ignorant. .1 would
here remark that I have never_ in my whole experience,
or observation from books, pamphlets, or intercourse
with men, read or heard of the general or special appli
cation of Electricity to the cure of disease, as taught by
Professor Balks, and, therefore, conclude it is original
with him.
I would say, to those tampering with thin mighty agent
of life and death to beware lest you strike a blow at the
citadel of lift, and never think of applying It to the
living organism until you understand its nature, and
when, where, and how to apply it.
I would here take occasion to- recomaidad my profes
atonal brethren throughout the country to turn their at.
tontion to this important *gent as taught by Professor
Pollee, who has certainly, in MY opinion, discovered, the
only reliable mode of its application, and thus rendered
an important service to the healing art, and a lasting

by you,.is the moat powerful, manageable, and efficient
agent known to man for the rmief -of pain and ours of

What I have now to say is from actual observation, as
I have spentmost of my time for the last two months wi:h

suffering from almost every form of chronic disuse; and
as strange as it may appear, in a majority of cases a per

Amenorrhcea, Aethtea, and Clongestion, and find hat I
have the Name success that you bad when I was under
your instruction. I invariably recommend medical mon

Pnop. DoLLies : A gloat revolution in my Mind and

your new discovery of applying Galvanism, Magnetism,
-find other modifications of Electricity as a curative agent.
thave found by many experiments that Electricity is a
vsfo therapeutic agent in all acute and chronic cases when.
applied according to your dficoVery.. I desire that medi

this syatom of practice, the more confident I am" that it
is all•nowerful to meet the ten thonsand (floosies to which
flesh is heir.
You. who first discovered Dlcctricity to be a'reliable
therapeutic agent, should be considered a great benefac
tor of the race, for it is the only reliable sykeln of cure
for the woes and ille . of Buffering humanity.' It is strange
that, physicians have become so wedded to their several
systems, brought up from the darkness of past ages, that
they will close their eyes against the light now beaming
forth through this system of practice. All other SYstchla
I regard as the morning star to the rising sun.
P. BDEDD, M. D.
Pitos. BoLiEs : The nearer I conform to your System
of application, the more successful I am, and as I have
examined all thngaidea and works published upon the
subject, and seen nothing in reference to your theory,' I
do not heeltate to say I believe It to be original with you,
andihe only reliable system extant for'ouring disease.
