    THE NEW-YORK TRIBUTE:
Daily, Semi-Weekly and Weekly:
isai-ff.
YHR NIW-YORK TIUBUNE was first issued
as a small Daily paper, in April { 1841 : it*
Weekly and Semi-Weekly editions are of
more recent origin. It commenced with a
few hundred snbscribers and 6tender pros
pects of patronage or aid of any kind ; it
has now Seventy Thousand subscribers for
or constant purcharers of its regular issues,
(a larger circulation lhan was ever attained
by any oiher Political journal.) with an ex
tensive Advertising business, ample materi
als sinl facilities, and an income, which is
abundantly salisiaclory to its publishers.
These facts are recapitulated in a spirit of
heartfelt gratitude to that wide American
publio by which its faults have been so ten
derly regarded and its merits so generously
acknowledged.
The Tribune is preeminently a neirspnper.
Its first aim is to present a lucid and accu
rate panorama of the living world around us.
Whatever importance its Editors may attach
(o their own opinions, they deem it of still
greater moment that their readers shall be
supplied with all data essential to the forma
tion of correct opinions for themselves.
Ileiico special attention is given to reliable
Correspondence from the most important
points throughout the world, while the Elec
tric Telegraph is largely employed in the
procurement of the earliest tidings of trans
piring events. When News presses upon
our columns, Et'.itorinls as well as Contrihu- j
lions habitn.uly stand hack. One ot the Ed
itors and Proprietors (Bayard Taylor) has
just started on a journey of observation in
the interest of this paper byway of the Dan
ube ar.d the Levant to the recently discov
ered Ruins of Ninevah and thence to Upper
Egypt and the sources of the Nile. His let.
ters will appear in our columns throughout
the ensuing year. We shall endeavor to he
surpassed by no other journal in the ability
and accuracy of our Coirespomlence and
Reports from Washington during the Long
Session now approaching. So with other
capitals whence important advices may be
expected. We are ablo to pay for early in
telligence worth having, and whoever can
anticipate all competitors in transmitting it
shall be compensated therefor, without ex
press stipulation.
—Every journal vaunts its cheapness—
scores proclaim themselves 'the cheapest in
the world.' Wo will only say, therefore '
that wo pay for paper alone mora than half
of all we receive from subscribers and pur
chasers, and that, but for Advertisements,
our annual expendil tres would exceed our
receipts by many thousands of dollars. A
copy of our Weekly or Semi-Weekly con
tains an amount of matter (which has all
cost us money or tabor) equal to the con
tents of a fair average volume, for which a
majority of our subscribers (in clubs) pay
us rather less than two cents. Whenever it
shall be possible to print a better paper for
that sum, we shall endeavor to bo among
the first to adopt the improvement. And,
while we respectively solicit subscriptions
and the aid of our friends in procuring them,
we do not desire the money of any who
consider our paper worth less than its cost.

EIBEKCE OF COFFEE.
A BOUT two year* ago a now discovery
A* was made in Europe, consisting of a
substitute for the ordinary store coffee, called
Essence of Coffee, which has gone into gen
eral use with astonishing rapidity, not only
among the poorer classes, who at once dis
pensed with the use ol the celebrated Chick
ory Coffee, but is now in general use in lite
wealthiest families and the first hotels, and
is highly recommended by the medical fac
ulty.
It is extracted from pure, wholesome veg
etables. and excels all similar preparations
that have ever been offered to the public,
either in this counlry or in Europe. Its su
perior quality has already been attested to in
the cities by some of the most eminent phys
icians, and a number of the most distinguish
ed of the clergy and other highly respectable
citizens. Coffee made frtun this essence ac
cording to the prescription obtains a more
delicious and plnasant favor lhan the com
mon store coffee, and is certainly more
wholesome, especially for persons in deli
cate health, which will be admitted by eve
ry physician who will take tho pains to test
the nature and properties of this essence.
One paper costing only 12i eis., is equal
to four pounds of store coffee, will be bright
and clear without the application df any
other ingredient to clarity or settle it. The
public arc therefore invited to give this es
sence at least a trial before they condemn it.
A respectable merchant of Luzerne coun
ty in writing of it sajs:
"My customers have been using of the
above Essence for some months past with
general satisfaction ; and Ida not hcsiialo
to recommend it to the public.

PANACEA.
Tnenfllictcd are invited to call end see Mi
Iaac Brooks, Jr., at the corner of Third and
i VVjlcox streets, and Miss Christiana Sands,
Bech street below Spruco street,* n the Schuyl
bill. These two persons have InCn snatched
from Ihe very jaws of the destiover through 'he
agency of that most potent of all medicines,
DR CULIEN'S INDIAN VEGETABLE
PANACEA.
Dr Cullen'a Panacea is the only cartain cure
for Scrofula or King's Cvil, Tetter, Lry-i|>elas,
Old Sores and Ulcers, Mercurial Diseases, ami nil
othci alfestlons, cutaneous or otherwise, arising
from impurities of theMOod.
In the extraordinary cure of Mr. Brooks, peo
ple who visit him, hold op their hands in as
loniidiment, that AXY medicine could have ar
rested tns disease—then go away resolved to re
commend Dr Co lien's Indian Vegetable Pana
cea to every one they hear of who has need of a
purifying medicine.
Mo with Christiana Sands—her CUJO of Scrof
ulous sore throat was quite as extraordinary HR
Mr. Brook*', when we reflect that from the dis
ease her tea or coffeo would frequently pass out
of her ears, when attempting to drink, [See
her certificate.]
The people are beginning to understand, too
that the various Syrups of Sari apnrilla aro little
heller than molu.-soH, and that it ia madness to
throw away money on articles which, under the
most favorable rircumatancea, do not produce
any impression on the system until several gul
ons have been swallowed. One Itoillo of Dr.
Cullen's Panacea seldom fails to produce con
viction in the minds of patients that a radical
cure isccrlam.
Thus hope, [o necessary, an nlly to medi
cine.] springs up nl the otilsct, and the patient
is cured before any other preparation could have
made the slightest impression upon the disease !
In fact, the twelve ounce bottles of Di. Cul
len's Panacea, computed witli the pint and quart
bottles of other purifiers, are valuable about in
the proportion of gold to cnppe. Those who
won lo prefer a penny to a half e;<gle, on aceouu
of its size, would make u poor selection to sat
the least.
Sarsapar.'lla a good pun her! Dr. Cullen's
Panacea contains its oxtract in its most conccn
tmtid form. Added to this ore other extracts,
more active and powerful, and which effect in
combination with the Mnrsaparilla, what the lat
ter article, or combined with the most powcrfu
poisons, cannot alone accomplish.
It has cured where everything else had failed
nm! this in a multitude of cases—not in Europe
or in the moon, (where so many great cures
have been performed,) but in Philadelphia and
other pnlts of the union. And he it distinctly
understood that we do not obtain our extracts by
"boliug 400 gallons down to one," it being
known to eveiy druggist's apprentice that boiling
destmys the Cfienlial virtues of medicinal plants
and roots.

THE TRUE DIGESTIVE FLUID,
OR
s&34r
A Great Dyspepsia cttrer, Prepared from
Rf.n net, or the fourth Stomach of the Ox,
after directions 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, Jaudfee, Liver Com
plaint, 'Constipation, and Debility. Coring
after Nature's own method, by Nature's own
agent, the Gastric Juice.
"ty Half a spoonlul of this Fluid, infused
in water, will digest or dissolve, Five Pounds
of Roast Beef in about tu-o hours, out of the
stomach.
niejr.sTioN.
Digestion is Chiefly performed in the
stomach by tlio aid of a fluid which freely
exudes from the inner coat of that organ,
when in a stale ol health, railed the Gastric
Juice. This fluid is tho Great solvent of tho
Food, the Purifying, Preserving, and Stimula
tion Acent of the stomach anJ iutenstines.
Without it there will ho no digestion,—no
conversion of food into blood, and no nu
ttitioti of the body; but rather a I'nul, torpid,
pninful, and destructive condition of the
whole digestive apparatus. A weak, half
dead, or injured stomach produces no good
Gastric Juice, and hence the "i—ose dis
ressand debility which c" :Z.

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 uh, and sometimes causes the
stomach to digest itself, or eat i'self up. It
is also found hi the stomach of animals, as
the ox, call, &c. It is the material used by
farmers in making cheese, called Rennet,
the effect of which has Ion" been the spe
cial wonder of the dairy. The curdling of
fnilk is the first process of digestion. Ren
net possesses astonishing power. The stom
ach ol a call'will curdle uearly one thou
snnd times its own weight of milk. Baro
Liebig stales that, 'One part of Pepsin dis
solved in sixty thousand parts of water, wik

stomachs produce no good Gastric Juice
Rennet or Pepsin. To shtfw that this want
may bo perlectly supplied, we quo'.o tho
following
SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE !
Baiion Liebig, in his celebrated work orv
oimnl Chemistry, says : "An Artificial Di
eslive Fluid analago us to the Gastric Juice,
may be readily prepared from the nttcous
gmembrane of the stomach of the Calf,
which various articles of food, as meat and
eggs" will be softened, changed, and diges
ted, 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 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. Pereir.v
Dr Combe, in his valuable writings on
the "Physiology of Digestion," observe
hat "a diminution of the due quantity o
ho Gastric Juice is a prominent and all pre
ailingcause of Dyspepsia;" and he state,
that "a distinguished professor of medicine
in London, who was severely afflicted w, h.
this complaint, finding every thing else to
fail, had recourse to the Gastric Juice, ob
tained from the stomach of living an inula
which proved completely suceesslul."
Dr. Graham, author of the famous work
on "Vegetable Diet," says: "it is a remar
kable fact in physiology, that the stomachs
of animals, macerated in water, impart to.
the fluid tho properly of dissolving various
articles of food, and 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 & Blanehard, l'hila., 1846,
pp. 321-2): "The discovery of PEPSIN
to 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 ism the natural Gastric Juice it
self."
Professor Dunglison of the Jefferson Col
lege, Philadelphia, in his great work on Un
man Physiology, devotes more than fifty
pages to an examination ol this subject.
His experiments with Dr Beaumont, on the
Gastric Juice, obtained from the living hu
man stomach ami from animals are well
known. "In all cases," he says, "digestion
occurred as perfectly in the artificial as tho
natural digestions."
