    THE NEW-YORK TRIBUN.E:
Daily, Semi-Weekly and Weekly:
1881-t.
Tun NEW-YORK TRIBUNE was first issued
as a small Daily paper, in April, 1841: its
Weekly and Semi-Weekly editions are ol
more recent origin. It commenced with a
few hundred snoscribers and slender pros
pects of patronage or aid of any kind; it
has now Seventy Thousand subscribers for
or Constant purcbarera of its regular issues,
(a larger circulation than was ever attained
t>y any other Political journal.) with on ex
tensive Advertising business, ample materi
als and facilities, and an income, which is
nbundontly satisiactorv to its publishers.
These facts are recapitulated in a spirit of
heartfelt gratitude to that wide American
public'by which its faults have been so fen
'defly regarded and its merits so generously
acknowledged.
The Tribune is preeminently a nctrspaper.
Its first aim is to present a lucid and accu
rate panorama of the living world around us.
Whatever importance its Editors may attach
to their own opinions, they deem it of still
greater moment that their readers shall be
supplied with all data essential to the forma
tion ol correct opinions for themselves.
Hence special attention is givpn to reliable
Correspondence from the most important
IKiints throughout the world, while the Elec
t*u Telegraph is largely employed in the
procurement of the earliest tidings of trans
piring events. When News presses upon
our columns, Editorials a well as Contribu
tions habitually stand hack. One ot the Ed
itors and Proprietors (Bayard Tajlor) has
just started on a jontnty of observation in
the interest of this paper byway of the Dan
ube and the Levant to lite recently discov
ered Ruins of Ninevah nnd liter cs to Upper
Egypt and the sources of the Nile. His let ,
ters will appear in our columns throughout
the e tsuing year. We shall endeavor to be
surpassed by no other journal in the ability
and accuracy of our Correspondence and
Reports from Washington during the Long
Session now approaching. So with other
capitals whence important advices may be
expected. We are able 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.' We will only say, therefore,
that we pay for paper alone mors than half
of all wo receive from subscribers and pur
chasers, and that, but for Advertisements,
our annual expenditures would exceed our
receipts by many of dollars. A
copy of our Weekly or Semi-Weekly con
tains an amount of matter (which has all
cost us money or labor) equal to the con
tents of a fair average volume, for which a
majority of our subscribers (in clubs) pay
ns rather less than two cents. Whenever it
shall be possible to print n better paper for
that sum, we shall endeavor to be among
the first to adopt the improvement. And,
while we respectively eolicit subscriptions
and the aid of our friends in procuring litem,
we do not desire the money of any who
consider our paper worth lest '.hnri its cost.

ESSENCE OF COFFEE.
ABOUT two years ago a new discovery
was made in Europe, consisting of
f substitute for the ordinary store coffee, called
i Essence of Cofiee, which has gone into gett
) eral use with astonishing rapidity, not only
1 among the poorer classes, who at once dis
' penseti with the use of the celebrated Chick
ory Coffee, but is now in general use in the
. wealthiest families and the first hotels, anil
j ts highly recommended by the medical fac
i ull r
j ft is extracted from pure, wholesome veg
! etnbles. and e.vceD all similar preparations
' that have ever boon offered to the public,
I either in this country or in Europe. Its su
, perior quality lias already been attested to in
; the cities by some of the most eminent pltys
j icians, and a number of the most distinguish
i ed of the ciorgy and other highly respectable
J citizens. Coffee made from this essence ac
cording to the prescription obtains a more
delicious and pleasant favor than tho 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 the pains to test
the nature and properties of this essence.
One paper costing only 12J cts., is equal
to four pounds of store coffee, will be bright
and clear without the ap ilication of any
other ingredient to clarify or settle it. The
' public are therefore invited to give this es
j sence at least a trial before they condemn it.
| A respectable merchant of Luzerne coun
j ty in writing of it sajs:
j "My customers have been using of the
above Essence for some months past with
I general satisfaction ; and Ido not hesitate
1 to recommend it to the public.

PANAOSA.
The nfflicted are invited to call and see Mi
lac Brooks, Jr., atthe earner ot Third and
Wilcox streets, and Miss Chiistisns Sands,
Beach street below n the Schuyl
kill. These two snatched
from the very jawt of the destioyer through 'he
agency of that most potent of all medicines,
DR CULLERS INDIAN VEGETABLE
PANACEA.
Dr Cullen's Panacea is thd*bnly cirtain cure
foi Scrofula or King's Evil, 'Tetter, Erysipelas,
Old Sores and Ulcers, Mercurial Diseases, and all
other affestions, cutaneous or otkerwise, arising
from impurities of the blood.
In tbe extraordinary cure of Mr. Brooks, peo
ple who visit him, hold up their hands in as
tonishment, that AMY medicine could have ar
rested HIS disease—then go away resolved to re
commend l)r Cullen's Indian Vegrtablo Pana
cea to every one they hear of who baa need of a
| purifying medicine.
So with Christiana Sands—her cuie of Scrof
ulous sore throat was quite as extraordinary as
' Mr. Brooks', when we reflect that from the ilia
| esse her tea or coffee would frequently pass out
of Iter ears, when attempting to drink, [See
| her certificate.]
! The people are beginning to understand, too
I that Iho various Syrups of Sarraparilla are little
| better than molasses, and that it is madness to
i throw away money on articles which, under the
; most favorable circumstances, do not produce
any impression on the system until several gat
ons hove been swallowed. One hottlc of Dr.
j Cullcn'a Panacea seldom fails to produce con
viction in the (hinds of patients that a radical
! cure iscertain.
Thus hope, [to necessary, an ally to medi-
I cine?] springs up at the otrlset, and the patient
is cured before any other preparation could have
■ made the slightest impression upon thcdiscuse !
In fact, the twelve ounce bottles of Di. Cul
len's Panacea, compared with the pint and quart
bottles of other purifiers, are valuable about in
the proportion of gold to copper. Those who
won Is prefer a penny to a half eagle, on accoun
of its aire, would make a poor selection to sat
the least.
Sarsoparilla a good purifier ! Dr. Cullen's
| Panacea contains its oxtract in its most concen
trated form. Added to this are other extracts,
more active and powerful, and which effect in
combination with the Uarssparills, what the Ist
| ter article, or combined with the most powerfu
poisons, cannot alone accomplish,
j It has cured where everything else had failed
| and this in a multitude of cases—not in Europe
i or in the moon, (where so many great cures
| have been performed.) but in Philadelphia and
i other pafts of the union. And be it distinctly
understood that we do not obtain our extracts by
| "holing 400 gallons down to one," it being
■ known to every druggist's apprentice that boiling
| destroys tbe essential virtues of medicinal plants
i and mots.

ANOTHER SCIENTIFIC WONDER
ipffiipsasrs
TIIE TRUE DIGESTIVE FLUID,
OR
A Great Dyspepsia ourcr, Prepared from
, RENNET, or the fourth Stomach of the Ox,
after ilirocliotiH of Baron Liebtg, the great
I Physiological Chemist, by J. S. Houghton,
:M. I)., No. 11, Noith Aghth Street, I'hila
' delphia, l'a.
I This is a truly wonderful remedy for Tndi
gestion, Dyspepsia, Jaudice, Liver Com
i plaint, Constipation, and Debility, Curing
! 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 ordissolvp, Fire Founds
\nf Roast Reef in about two hours , out of tho
I stomach.
DintSTlOS.
i Digestion is Chiefly performed in the
| stomach by the aid of a fluid which freelv
exudes from tho inner coat of that organ,
whpn in a state of health, called the Gastric
Juice. This fluid isthe Great solvent of the
; Food, the Purifying, Preserving, and Slimuln
] ting Agent of the stomach and intenstines.
i j Without it there will be no digestion,—no
, i conversion of food into blood, and no nu
j tritiou of the body; but rather a foul, torpid.
I painful, and destructive condition of the
I ; whole digestive apparatus* A weak, half
I dead, or injured stomach produces no good
• Gastric Juice, and hence the •'!"■<.< dis
' res sand debility which ev.rt*.
Pepsin as u Rennet.— Pepsin is the uliie
! element, or great Digesting Principle of tho
| Gastric Juice. It is found in great abun
| dance in the solid parts of the human stom
; aeh after de ith, anil sometimes causes the
1 stomach to digest itself, or eat i'self up. It
' is also found in the stomach of animals, as
• I the ox, calf, &c. It is the material used by
i | farmers in makirg cheese, called Rennet,
i i the effect of which has long been the spe
• j ctal wonder of the dairy. The curdling of
I | milk is the first process of digestion. Ren-
I net possesses astonishing power. The stom-
I I aeh of a calf will curdle nearly one thou
! sand times its own weight of milk. Baro
' Liebig states that, 'One part of Pepsin tit*
■ | solved in sixty thousand parts of water, xvil
i j digest meat and other food." Diseased
i stomachs produce no good Gastric Juice
I Rennet or Pepsin. To show that this want
may be perfectly supplied, we quote the
following
SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE !
j Babon Lieiug, in Lis celebrated work on
j nimal Chpmislry, says : "An Artificial Di-
I estive Fluid analago us to the Gastric Juice,
j may be readily prepared from the nncous
' grnembrane of the stomach of the Call,
I which various articles of food, as meat and
• eggsj will be softened, changed, and digps
i t'-d, jnst in the same manner as they would
| be in the human stomach."
I Dr. l'ereira ( in his famous treatise on
| "Food and Diet." published by Fowlers &
j Wells, New York, page 35. states the same
I great fact, and describes the method of prep
aration. There are few higher authorities
j than Dr. Pereira.
| Dr Combe, in his valuable writings on
' die "Physiology of Digestion," observo
! hat "a diminution of the due quantity o
j lie Gastric Juice is a prominent and all-prc
ailing cause of Dyspepsia;" and he state,
that "a distinguished professor of medicine
! in London, who was severely afflicted uih
| 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 successtul."
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 wjiter, impart to
I the fluid the properly of dissolving various
| articles of food, and of effecting a kind of
! artificial digestion of them in no wise dif
-1 Cerent from the natural digestive process."
Dr. Simon'B great work, the "Chemistry
of Man," (Lea & Blam liard, Phila., iB4t;,
! pp. 321-2): "'The discovery of PEPSIN
fo ms a new era in the chemical history of
Di gestion. From recent experiments we
i know that food is dissolved as rapidly in an
I artificial digestive fluid, prepared from Pep.
' sin, as it is in the natural Gastric Juice it
j self."
| Professor Dunglison of liio Joflerson Col
: lege, Philadelphia, in his great work on Hit
j man Physiology, devotes more than lifty
i pages to an Diamination of this subject.
His experiments with Dr Beaumont, on the
Gastric Juice, obtained from the living in,.
' man stomach and from animals aro well
| known. "In all cases," he says, "digestion
! occurred as perfectly in the artificial as tho
l natural digestions."
i As a DYSPEPSIA CI'RF.R, Dr Houghton's
preparation of Pepsin has produced tho
I most marvellous eflects, curing eases of Dc-
I bility, Emaciation, Nervous Decline, and
i dispeptic Consumption, supposed to bo on
| the very verge ol the grave. It is imposs
| ble to give the details of eases in the limit

certificates have been of more than two hun
\ drcd Remarkable Cures , in Philadelphia, New
