hi speaking of tbo professors attached to
our seminaries ot learning, Diokens says
(hat their knowledge is as inversely as their
•gee— that is, the moat recently elected gen -
e rally know the most. The great trail It with
our learned men is, that when they enter a
college they leave the world, and become
so immersed in Greek and Hebrew, that
they can't eee common sense through the
' dust they kick up. Wo conversed the other
day with a classical scholar who was perfect
ly acquainted with every fiscal operation
that aver took place in Alliens, and yet that
same scholar could not toll whether the rate

ot fourteen.

"Auld Lung Syne." How much better is
this than flying to the bottle, or letting fly

AN INCIDENT.—A fashionable young lady
secenlly met her plain old graudmoiher al
the Springs. The old lady's heart was filled
with innocence and simplicity, and her ide
as of feshion halted at a straight coat and
plain cap. When, therefore, she mat her
dear niece, the first time for many years, and
saw her a disfigured invalid, she was shock
ed, and almost fainted. When her emotion
had a little subsided, she turned with tears
in bqr eyes, and said, "Margaret, honey,
thee may get well; but, indeed, I fear that
the waters never will cure thee of this dread
ful thing," laying her band on Margaret's
fashionable bustle.—"O ! how . awful thee
must feel about it !" and another answer of
tears gushed forth. Good old lady, that.

Partington, as her eyes ran over the morn

ANOTHER SCIENTIFIC WONDER
ipasponsis
THE TRUE DIGESTIVE FLUID,
OR
A Great Dyspepsia curar, Prepared from
RENNET, or the fourth Stomach of the Ox,
after direction* of Baron Liebig, the great
Physiological Chemist, by J. S. Houghton,
M. D., No. 11, North Eighth Street, Phila
delphia, Pa.
This is a truly wonderful remedy for Indi
gestion, Dyspepsia, Jaudiee, Liver Com
plaint. Constipation, and Debility, Curing
after Nature's own method, by Nature's own
agent, the Gastric Juice.
Ey Half a spoonlnl of this Fluid, infused
in water, will digest or dissolve, Fivt Pounds
of Roast Beef-in about two hours, out of the
stomach.
DIGESTION,
Digestion is Chiefly performed in the
stomach by the aid of a fluid which freely
exudes from the inner coat of that organ,
when in a slate ol health, called the Gastric
Juice. This fluid is the Great solvent of the
Food, the Purifying, Preserving, and Stimula
ting Agent of the stomach and intenstines.
Without it thero will bo no digestion,—no
conversion of food into blood, and no nu
trition of tho body; but rather a foul, torpid,
painf'il, and destructive condition of the
whole digestive apparatus. A weak, half
dead, or injured stomach produces nd good
Gastric Juice, and hence the disease, dis
tress and debility which ensue.
PEPSIN AUD RENNET. —Pepsin is the chief
element, or great Digesting Principle of the
Gastric Juice. It is found in great abun
dance in the solid parts of the human stom
ach after de ith, and sometimes causes the
stomach to digest itself, or eat i'solf up. It
is also found in the stomach of animals, as
the ox, calf, &c. It is the material used by
farmers in makirg cheese, called Rennet,
the effect of which has long been the spe
cial wonder of the dairy. The curdliug of
milk is the first process of digestion. Ken
net possesses nstonislii"g power. The stom
ach of a calf will curdle nearly one thou
sand times its own weight of milk. Baron
Liebig states that, 'One part of Pepsin dis
solved in sixty thousand parts of water, will
digest meat and other food." Diseased
stomachs produce no good Gastric Juice
Rennet or Pepsin. To show that this want
may be porlectly supplied, we quote the
following
SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE!
BARON LIEBIO, in his celebrated work on
Animal Chemistry, says : "An Artificial Di
gestive Fluid analagous to the Gastric Juice,
may he readily prepared from the nucous
ineinbrano of the stomach of the Call, in
which various articles of food, as meat and
will be solicited, changed, and diges-
I-d, just in tho same manner as they would
be in the human stomach."
Dr. I'ereira, in his famous treatise on
"Food and Diet," published by Fowlers &
Wells, New York, page 35. states the same
great fact, and describes the method of prep
aration. There are few higher authorities
than Dr. Pereira.
Dr Combe, in .his valuable writings on
the "Physiology of Digestion," observes
that "a diminution of the due quantity of
the Gastric Juice is a prominent and all-pre
vailing cause of Dyspepsiaand he states
that "a distinguished professor of medicine
in London, who was severely afflicted with
this complaint, finding every thing, else to
fail, had recourse to the Gastric Juice, ob
tained from the stomach of living animals,
which proved completely successful."
Dr. Graham, author of tho famous works
on "Vegetable Diet," says : "it is a remar
kable fact in physiology, that the stomachs
of animals, macerated in water, impart to
the fluid the properly of dissolving various
articles of food, anil of effecting a kind of
artificial digestion of them in no wise dif
ferent from the natural digestive process."
Dr. Simon's great work, the "Chemistry
of Man," (Lea & Blanc-hard, Phils. 1846,
pp. 321-2): "The discovery of PEPSIN
fo ms a new era in the chemical history of
Di gestion. From recent experiments we
know that food is dissolved as rapidly in an
artificial digestive fluid, prepared from Pep
sin, as it is in the natural Gastric Juice it
self*
Professor Dunglison of the Jefferson Col
lege, Philadelphia, in'his great work on Hu
man Physiology, devotes more than fifty
pages to an examination of this subject.
Ills experiments with Dr Beaumont, on the
Gastric Juice, obtained from tho living hu
man stomach and from animals are well
known. "In all cases," he says, "digestion
occurred as perfectly in the artificial as the
natural digestions."
As a DYSPEPSIA CUIIER, Dr Houghton's
preparation of Pepsin has produced the
most marvellous eflects, curing cases of De
bility, Emaciation. Nervous Decline, and
dispeptic Consumption, supposed to be on
the very verge of the grave. It is imposs
ible to give the details of cases in the limit
of this advertisement—l>ut authenticate
certificates have been of more than two hun
dred Remarkable Cures, in Philadelphia, New-
York, and Boston alone. These were
nearly all desperate eases, and the cures
were not only rapid and wonderful, but per
manent.
It is a great Nervous Antidote, and par
ticularly useful for tendency to billions dis
order, Liver Complaint, Fever and Ague, or
badly treated Fever and Ague, and the evil
eflects of Quinine, Mercury, and other drugs
upon the Digestive organs, after a long sick
ness. Also, for excess in eating, and the
too free use of ardent spirits. It almost rec
onciles Health with Intemperance.
OLD STOMACH COMPLAINTS. —There is no
forui 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 I A single dose removes all
the unpleasant symptoms, and it only needs

Dr- Cullen's Panacea is the only cirtain cure

tonishment, that ANY medicine could have ar
rested ins disease—then go uwsy resolved to re
commend l)r Cullen's Indian Vegetable Pana
cea to every one they bear of who has need of a
purifying medicine.
So with Christiana Sands—her cujr of Scrof

Mr. Brooks', when we reflect that from the dis
ease hei tea Or coffee would frequently pass out
of lier earsrwhejr attempting to drink, [Bee

The people die beginning to understand, too,
that the various Vyrups of Bariaparillaare little
better than molawes, and that it is madness to
throw away money on articles which, under the
most favorable bfirnuMlsncea, do not produce
any impression an the system until several gal

Cullen's Panacea reldnm fails to produce con

Thus hope. [ necessary, en ally to medi

is cured beforo any other pre|iaralion could hove
made the slightest impression upon thedisesse !
In fact, the twelve ounce bottles of Di. Gal
lon's Panacea, compared willi tho pint and quart
bottles of other purifiers, are valuable about in
the proportion of got.l to coppci. Those who

CELEBRATED BITTERS,
PREPARED BY
DR. C. HI. JACKSON,
AT THE
GERMAN MEDICINE STORE,
No. 120 Arch Street, Philadelphia.
Their power over the above diseases is
not excelled, if equalled, by any other rep
aration in the United States, as the cures
attest, in many cases after skilful physicians
had failed.
These Hitters aro worthy iho attention of
invalids. Possessing great virtues in the
rectification of diseases of the Liver and 1 ts
ser glands, exercising the most searching
powers in weakness and aficctionsof the di
gestive organs, they are, withal, safe, cer
tain and pleasant.
Ilead and be Convinced.
The Hon. Charles D. Hineline, Editor of
the "Camden Democrat,"the best paper in
West Jersey, sap. July 21
I "HOOFLANU'S GERMAN HITTERS."—"We
have seen many Haltering notices of this
medicine, and the source from which they
came, induced us to make inquiry respect
ing its merils. From inquiry we were pet
suaded to use it, and must say we found
it specific in its aclion upon diseases of the
liver and digestive organs, and the powerful
influence it exerts upon nervous prostration
is really surprising. It calms and stregthens
the nerves, bringing them into a state of re
pose, making sleep relreshing.
[From the "Boston Bee. ]
The editor saitl, Dec. 22d—
"Dr. Hoofland's Celebrated German Bitters
for the cure of Liver Complaint, Jaundice,
1 Dyspeysia, Chronic or Nervous Debility, is
deservedlv one of the most popular medi
• cines of the day. These Hitters have been
used by thousands, and a friend at our elbow
says he has himself received an effectual
1 and permanent euro of Liver Complaint
1 from the use of this remedy. We are con
-1 vinced that, in the use of These Bitters, the
patient constantly gains strength and vigor—
' a fact worthy of "great consideration. They
I are pleasant in taste and smoll, and can be
. j used by persons with the mst delicatestom
; achs with safety, under any circumstances.
, We are speaking from experience and to the
> afflicted wc advise their use."
i Judge M. M. Noah, a gentleman with
great scientific and and litlernry attainments,
said in his "Few York Weekly Messenger,"
, January 6, 1850.
i "Dr Hoajland's German Bitters. —Here b
I u preparation which the leading presses in
I the Lnion appear to bo unanimous in re
i commending, and tbe reason is obvious. It
■ j is made after a prescription furnished by
I one or the most celebrated physicians of
■ modern times, the late Dr Christopher W if
; helm Honlland, Professor do the University
of Jena, Private Physician 1° the King of
Prussia, and one of the grectlest medical wri
ters Germany has ever prot.htced. He was
! emphatically the enemy of humbug, and
j the,efore a medicine of whiofd he was the
| inventor and endorser may be i lonfidenlly re-
I lied on. He specially recomn tended it in
Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, D ability, Vcr
ligd, Acidity of the Stomaclr, <- '-onstipation,
! and all complaints arising from * disordered
condition of the stomach, the Irver and the
intestines. Nine Philadelphia pape TS express
their conviction of its excellence, sua
cral ot the editors speak of its eih\ 'ls bom
their own individual experience- Under
these circumstances, we feel warrant! *l, not
only in callhig the attention of our J eaders
to the present proprietor's (Dr. C. M. Jack
son's) preparation, but in recommendin n T 'he
article to all afflicted."
MORE EVIDENCE.
The "Philadelphia Saturday Gazette," t he j
best family newspapet published in the Un i
ted Slates, the editor says of
I DR. HOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS,
j "It is seldom that we recommend what
] are termed Patent Medicines to the confi
dence and patronage of our readers : and,
! therefore, when wc recommend Dr. Hoof
i land's German Bitters, wo wish it to bo dis
! tinctly understood that we aro not speaking
of the nostrums of the day. that are noised
about for a brief period and then forgotten
after they have done their guilty racoof rnts
chif, but of a medicine long established,
universally prized, and which has oiet the
hearty approval of the Faculty itself."
Evidence upon evidence has been re
ceived (like the'forcgoitfg) from all sections
ol the Union, the last three years, and 'J, t
strongest testimony in its favor, is, that there is
more of it uspd tn the practice of the rcgu
lor Physicians <sf Philadelphia than all other
nostrums combined, a fact that can easily
be established, and fully proving that a sci
entific preparation will meet with their qui
et approval when presented even in this
form.
That this medicine will euro Liver Com
plaint and Dyspepsia, no one can doubt, af
ter using it as diiected. It acts specifically
upon the stomach and liver—it is preferable
to calcmel in all bilious diseases —the efTect is
irpmediate. They can be administered to
FEMALE or INFANT with safety and reliable
I benefit, at any time.
BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS.
This medicine has attained that high char
acter which is necessary for all mediciues to
attain to induce counterfeiters to put forth a
spurious article at the risk of the lives of
those who are innocently deceived.
LOOK WELL TO THE MARKS OF THE GENUINE.

votes his time exclusively to their ptepera

in the neighborhood of Philadelphia, have
been cured since the first of Sept., last. In
Dyspepsia, Rheumatism, Liver Complaint,
Scrofula, for Worms, and all other diseases
of children, they are unequalled by anything
ever prepared for the purpose, While for the
various diseases ot Females there is no me
dicine can compare with them. There is
more of them sold—they are in greater de
mand than any other pill—and when once
introduced in a family, they need no ol' l ® l
medicine. Each box containing Fißy Pills,
renders them the cheapest, while they are
decidedly the best, as well as the mildeftt HI
