    A Theatrical Awetlraeer.
. A ymwf wag who lied mada 'going, going,
poing,' hie profession- great favorite: among
knights of th buskin,' beiidei being chosen a
favorite among the ladies, was once mounted,
hummer in hand, selling a piece of furniture.
lie was wbll conversant with all the best dram
atic productions of the day, and among the rest,
of the Hunchback, then the rage in. Boston,
where the joke occurred. Fanny Kembie was
t the time delighting the town with her 4 Jul in,'
and every body waa well acquainted with the
celebrated lines.
Clifford why,don't yon speak to me,
O, Clifford, ii it you?" he., cc,
which are ranked among the favorite poiute of
the play.
'Ooing, going lart call 6ny-two any
uioreT fifty-three go on gentlcnmen thank
you air fifty three dollars J last call once
twice any more, gone ! who is it V' There
was a pause and nobody answered. 'Who ia it.'
who bid fifty three f "Fifty two waa my bid,'
taid some one. Who bid fitly three J some
one said fifty three; who bid fifty three!' -
Clifford,' said a low voice near the door. '
'(), Clifford, is it you ?' ' exclaimed the auc
tioneer, drooping his hands a la Fanny Kembie.
The joke was irresistible every-body recognis
ed it, and catching the spirit of the thing, the
audience followed op an ecstacy of laughter
with three rounds of applause, while the auc
tioneer deliberately drew out hia handkerchief,
and wiped his nose in burlesque imitation of
Miss Fanny. Clifford, did you say, air t Clif
ford,' said the auctioneer, when the merriment
hjd a little subsided. 'Is it cash, sir' Clif
ford, the purchaser, it seems, was a bashful per
ron, unacquainted with theatrical things, and
had become somewhat alarmed at the unac
countable good humor of the crowd, so that he
waa afraid to open his lips again, lost he should
excite another burst of fun. Ma it cash, air !'
enquired the auctioneer.
. AH eyes were turned upon Clifford, who
looked very much aa if he felt that his mother
wanted him, but still he made no answer. 'The
merry auctioneer would rather low his custom
er thsn his joke, and he suddenly exclaimed,
r-till imitating the fiery-eyed Fanny :
'Clifford, why don't you speak to me V
The assembly now fairly ' screamed with
laughter, and amid an uproarioua burst of ap
plause, Clifford made a bolt for the door, and
escaped. N. O.'Pic.
Anecdote of an Intemperate Actor.
Frederic Cooke,.the great English performer,
and cotcmporary of John Kembie, waa a noto
rious iuebriate, and to procure' the exciting
draught he would resort to any subterfuge or
contrivance. It ia of hitn that the following an
ecdote is related :
His passion for drink was so great, that when
he was without money, or meana of raising it,
he had been known to go to a certain pawnbrok
er's where he waa in the habit of applying, and
to say '1 want five guineas ; but I have noth
ing to pledge but myself. Give me the money,
they'll be sure to redeem me when f am want
ed.' And having aent word to the theatre of hia
situation, he has frequently been tound seated
on the pawnbroker's counter, with duplicate
pinned to hia buttonhole. On one occasion
when the manager, Edliston wished him par
ticularly to be quite correct, he invited him to
dinner, and. afterwards begged he would oblge
him by submitting to one thing, which Fred
promised. He, however, looked rather funny
when Elliston, drawing hitn into a small room
in the theatre, told him be must content himself
there till it waa time to dresa. As there was no
getting off, Cooke consented; but after being
locked in for tome time, he began to long horri
bly for punch. By and by, he heard noise of a
broom on the stair j. Hope revived he called,
'Mary, Betsy! whatever your name is, come
here for God's sake '.' and he contrived, while
curiosity made the maid pauee in her labor, to
push a crown-piece between the door and the
floor, 'There that'a for you : and Mary (pushing
through another) go like a good girl, and get
me a pint of brandy and a clean pipe with thia.'
Oh, air, I dare not ! Maater deaired that I
shouldn't come near the door, air, nor apeak to
you upon any account.'
'Pshaw t Go, do aa I tell you, and you shall
have another by and by.'
The girl waa not proof against the bribe.
The brandy and pipe were both brought, and
the tube of the latter being put through the key
hole, the bowl waa filled on the outaide, and in
thia way the liquor waaaucked upaa the Amer
icana drink aherry-coblcr. It ia hardly necea
airy to aay, that on Elliston's coming to let him
oit, Fred waa found on hia back ; but a plenti
lul aupply of aoda water enabled him to go
through hia part. '
We never knew the man disposed to scorn
the humble, who waa not himself a fair object
of acorn to the humblest.
A man who gcta through the world without
kick, may reat assured that he ia generally con
sidered as not worth minding.
None moie patiently auf&r injuries, than
tliose that are most forward in doing them.
Nothing is gained by dissembling or equivo
cating plain truth ia always beet.
When a man doea all ba can, do not blame
him, though be eucceeds not well.

Mb. Oakict: I believe lithe uty of every
one to do whhtrverin their power I res, for the bene
fit of their fellow man, and having had poM'ive
proof in my own family, of the wonderful properties
of your Depurativ Syrup of Sarsapsrilla, I m st
conscientiously recommend it to the afflicted. We
had the mifortune to lose two of our children, by
the breaking out of ulcerous sores that covered the
face, head and neck, although we had some of the
most scientific physicisns to attend them and had
ried all the known remedies, including Swaim s
Panacea, without avail. - Another of my children
was attacked in the same manner, her face and
neck was completely covered; ihe discharge waa ao
offensive, and ihe disease at such a hetRht, that we
despaired of her life. Seeing the wonderful effects
of your Depurstive Hyrup of Dnrssarilla, we were
induced to make trial of it, as the last resort ; it
acted like a charm ; Ihe ulcers commenced healing
immediately, a ft w bottles entirely restored her to
her health, which ahe hss enjoyed uninterruptedly
ever since. Asa purifier of the blood, I verily be
lieve it baa not lla equal.

by Dr. Johnson of Nortistown, and also Dr. Isaac

of Saraaparilla, of which I obtained several bottles,
ihe use of which drove the disease entirelv out of

PniLABXtrntA, February 10, 183H.
T, OR twenty yeara I was severely afflicted with
- iXTTsnontna r ace and Headi the disease
commenced when I waa aeventeen years old, and
continued Until the Fall of 1838, varving in vio
lence, but without ever disappearing. During most
of the time, great part of my face was covered with
the eruption, frequently attended with violent itch
ing my head swelled al times until it frit as if it
would burst the swelling waa so g-eat, that I could
scarcely get my hat on. During the long period
that I was afflicted with the disease, I used a great
many at plications, (among them severs! celebrated
preparations) as well as taking inward remedies,
including a number of bottles of Swaim'i Panaera,
Extrart of Sanapartlla, eke. In fact, it would be
impossible to enumerate all the medicines I need.
I waa also ontler tbe cure or two or the most ill
tinguished physiciana of this city, but without re
ceivmg much benefit, and I despaired of ever being
cured. In the fall of 1838, the disease at the time
being very violent, I commenced nsing the Rote
Ointment, f prepared bv Vaoihan it Davis. l .In
s few applications the violent itching ceased, the
swelling abated, the eruption began to "disappear,
and before I hud used a tar the disease was entirely
cured. It has now been ncsrly a year and a half
since, and there is not a vestige of the disease re
maining, except the scare from the deep pita formed
by the disease. It ia impossible for me to deacriha
in a certificate the severity of the disease and my
suffering, but I will be plensed to give a fuller ec
connt to any person wanting further satisfaction,
who will call on me. At the lime I commenced
using the Rose Ointment I would have given hun
drcds of dollars to be rid of the disease. Since u-
sing it, t have recommended it to several persona.
(among them my mother, who bad the disease bad'

'PHIS is to certify that I was severely afflicted
with Tetter in the hands and feet for upwards
of forty years ; the disease was attended generally
with violent itching and swelling;. I applied to a
number of physicians, and used a great many appli
cations without eriecting a cure. About a year
aince, I applied the Rose Ointment, which entirely
stopped the itching, and a few applications immedi
ately cured the disease, which there has been ' no
return of, although I had never been rid of it at
any time for forty years. RICHARD SAVAGE,

I was recently troubled with s tedious herpetic
eruption, which covered nearly one si. le of my fice,
and extended over the ear. Mr. Vaughan, proprie
tor of the Rose Ointment, obsciving my face, insis
ted on my trying bis prepsration, of which he han
ded me s jar. Although in common with the mem
bers of my profession, I discountenance and disap
prove of the numerous nostrums palmed upon the
public by ignorant pretenders, I feel injustice bound
to except the Roe Ointment from that class of me
dicines, and to give it my approbation, aa it entire
ly cored the eruption, although it had resisted the
usual applications. - DANL. BAI GH, M. D.
