HOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS.
Prom J. Newton Brown, D. D., .Editor of the En
eveloPedia o f Beligimte Knowledge.
Although not disposed to favor or recommend
Patent Medicines in general, through distrust of
their ingredients and effects: I yet know of no
sufficient reason why a man may not testify to the
benefit he believes himself to have received from
any simple preparation in the hope that He may
thus contribute to the benefit of others.
Ido this the more readily in regard to Hoof
land's German Bitters, prepared by Dr. C. M.
Jackson, of this city, because I was prejudiced
against them for many years, under the impres
sion that they were chiefly an alcoholic mixture,
lam indebted to my friend Robert Shoemaker.
Esq ~for the removal of this prejudice by proper
..ests, and for encouragement to try them, when
suffering from great and long continued debility.
The use of three bottles of these Bitters, at the
beginning of the present year, was followed by
evident relief, and restoration to a degree of
,odily and mental vigor which I bad not thlt for
Is months before, and had almost depaired of re
elining. I therefore thank God and my friend for
Li r ,sating me to the use of them.

TIIFMISTERIOUS WART.
AN INTERESTING STORY..
1 sat beside, my patient until he sank
to - sleep. He seemed to he doing well still
and I had no doubt but that the morning
light would see him greatly better. dint west
ern hospitality would not permit of my
departure at thatiate hour and l was lodged
in en upper chamber npon a bed as clean
and simple as it wgs fragrant. I slept.
At midnight howeiker was awakened by
the news that. mrpalitent was worse. He
had awakened immortal agony. Some in
ward injury, impoSSible to discover, had
done its work. I said nothing of hope now,
and the dying 1219,i looked at RM• with a
ghastly rmile.

it and me; you will find me right."
'lie ie were the lest words he uttered:
He muttered incoherently atter this, tossed
his arms about, and struggled for his
breath, At last he seemed to sink into a
slumber. My hand was on his heart.—
l felt its beatings grow faint, fainter,
still. At last there was no motion. lie
was dead. I lifted the watch to my ear—
that had stoped also!
There were tears in the eyes of the
rough men about me, and the woman wept
as she might tor oz.e ot.her own kindred.

away, leaving the watch upon the cover

And so the watch wa, mine.
It was dumb and motionless, and i r t re

and he laughed at the idea of its ever go.
tog again. This was after I bad left the
West and dwelt in a large and populous
city in tile 11tern States, some eight or
Mae months after poor Mike Barlow's
death. Thi' watchmaker only confirmed
my ow ti suspicions. It was a strange to•
incidence that it should last exactly its
master's lifetime, but that was all. So I
hung it upon my clamber-wall,a memento
.if Liaise days of toil and struggle in the
far West.
)ne morning 1 awoke early. The blushes
of dawn were just breaking over the earth.
it was the miaith of November, but still
the day was lovely. There was au unwont

chain a delicate little Cenera watch. I un-
lestened it and put the battered silver
montaer in its place. The budding 'level

precious to me than if it had been set with
jewels.

I awakened iu the night. once or twice it

threatened me : the second as I stood ur

one hour afterwards ; and at other mo

ved to keep alive the fancy that 1 loved
to cherish. Never was its voice so clear
and soft as on that evening when I first
met Rosa Grey. I loved her from the first
moment. and she loved me in return. We
had neither of us any friends to interfere,
for she was an orphan, brotherless and
si-terlesn ; and so, after a brief courtship,
we were married.
bud nu secrets from my wife, and in a
little while she learned the story of the
watch. She had faith in it, and thought
or fancied that she could detect the very
shades of difference iu its utterance. When
I was weary she said the watch was weary
too; when 1 was glad it had &joyous echo.
I know that on that night when a feeble
breath fluttered in a feebler frame, and the
little creature to whom our love had given
existence struggled vainly for its life, there
was a piteous cadence in the voice of that
old watch I hope never to hear again.
So we lived on together. It was God's
will that we should be childless, but we
loved each other all the more. I grew rich
and prosperous, and our only grief was the
missing of those baby eyes and voices which
we had hoped to have about our hearth.
It was my fortieth birthday—l never
shall forget that day—when the watch
began its warning, My wife and I heard
it at one moment: Never before had the
voice of that watch been so loud or rapid.
All day long, all the next, and all the next,
that warningcontinued. The pulse within
it shook the table on which it rested,
when I drew it from my pocket., and made
the garments on my bosom rise and tall
when I replaced it. Were we threatened
with illness? No' - her cheek was bloom-
ing. and my pulse was regular. What
could it mean!
After tour days I begen to laugh at my
own credulity, and even Rosa began to
lose her faith in the monitor. About noon
I left her, and wentinto ulittle room where
I kept my medical works and some rare
drugs and curiosities. It was my purpose
to study for a lecture which I was to de
liver that evening. 1 seated myself at my
desk and commenced to read, but after a
few moments I inhaled a disagreeable
odor and experienced asingultir faintness,
I recognized the smell in a moment. In
une of the jars upon my shelves was a rare
essence, of great use in cases where a sus-
pension of consciousness was neccessary,
but excessively dangerous save in skillful
hands. Some one—a servant probably-4
had been meddling with the jar and re
moved thestopper, and the room was full
of the powerful odor. I must leave it if I
would live. I staggered to the door, put,
my hand upon the lock, when, horror
of horrors! it remained immovable--some-
thing had happened to the catch. I strove
to call aloud, but my voice failed me. I.
clutched the table for support, but lost my
hold and fell heavily to the floor. I could
see nothing—all grew dark about me.—
Mechanically I placed my hand upon the
watch within my bosom. It had stopped!
--and 1 remembered nothing more.
Consciouimess came back to me. as' it •
may come to a new-born babe, for aught
I know. I felt without understanding ; I
was conscinus of facts for which I cared
nothing; I vain the

and my movements were constrained;
but it did not seem as though that were
any affair of mine. Hunger at last awake
me; the animal aroused the mental, and I
began to wonder where I had been, and
where I had was. I put up my hand as
well as I could. There was a low roof
over my head, folds of muslin lay about
me, - something upoti :my breast emit
ted a sickly fragrance—a bunch of flowers
seeming half wtthered. I - knew this by
the touch. What was the matter with me?
Why could I not breathe freely? Was I
blind or deaf, tnat I could not see nor
hear? Suddenly the truth flashed across
me; I had been buried atieet—l lay in my
coffin!
And all this time you ask, where was
my wife? how bad she borne the blow
which had fallen so suddenly upon her.—
She it was who found me senseless upon
my study floor; and she it was who hoped
for returningicnsciommess after:all others
had despaired. At last they told her I
was dead, and shrouded me for burial.—
Learned men decided that the strange
preservation of my frame was eaused by
the manner of my death, and at length my
body was committed to the tomb.
I had often made my wife promise me
that if I died first she would take the
watch into her possession, and ware it
while she lived; and.so, now that all was
over, she took it, voiceless as it was, and
laid it next her bosom. For three days
and nights Abe never slept; but at last ex
haustation did its work, and she fell into
a heavy slumber. -She was-awakened by a
sound as strange as it was unexpected.—
The watch, silent since that fatal day, had
begun to tick—tact and furious, as itnever
ticked before t • loud enough to arouse her
—loud enough to make her spring from
her pillow in an agony of hope and fear.
Those about her thought she was a mad
woman; but, nevertheless, the strength of
her purpose bore all before her. Out
into the midnight sbe went and they fol
lowed her. Through the streets of the
deserted town she passed. in her white
night-robes, like a ghost, and they dared
not hold her back. She reached the
churchyard at last and beat wildly on the
old sexton's door.
"I'm am come to tell you to open my
husbands vault," she said; "he is cometo
life again.*:
He also thought her mad, and yet dared
not disobey her, and all the while the fu•.
riot's ticking of the watch was heard by
each one there. It softened, it stilled,
when the black isotlin stool upon the turf..
It grew musical when my wife bent over
me and caught me to her heart—no
corpse, but a living man and it has had no
change in its regular beat since .that mo
ment.
