The Razor strop Man.
Many of our city readers will remem
ber Smith, the razor-strop man who
attracted crowds at the corner ofSpruce
and Nassau -streets, and at other places,
to witness his odd way of crying and
disposing of his wares. He is a native
of England, and at one time, we believe
was addicted to the intemperate use of
spiritous liquors;hitt having taken the
Temperance ple dge, he betalMe a sobir
man, and occasionally a 'temperance
lecturer. We learn from the Lutheran
Observer, tliiit after travelling fiom
Nova Scotia to Texas, he is now on his
return, and for the lust month or two has
been driving his business, in Baltimore.
The Observer says :
" Every afternoon he opens his budget
in North Street, in front of the Post of
flee, where he is sure to find an audience
end purchasers. The principal arttetet
of sale are razors, straps, Aating soap,
Sec. Last evening we stopped a minute
to see what was going on. We found
him stropping a razor ; end itt ri few mo
ments he tested the edge by cutting a
hair with it. 'Now gentleman, said he,
'you see what a smooth, keen edge this
rozor has; you must admit that it is a
capital thing, or so little stropping Would
not give it such an edge ; or if you
doubt this, then you must admit that the
strop is first rate. You can buy either,
or both, or half a dozen of each at the
low price of,' &c.
" But Smith sometimes packs his ra
zors, Sze, up and delivers a temperance
speech, and here is one of them :
" Some folks say that it is right to
drink alcohol, because it is a good crea
ture of God. Well, gr - aut that it is so;
so is castor oil, and so is vinegar a good
creature of God ; but suppose a dog gets
mad, and bites a man or woman, would
you let him alone because, ns you say,
he was a good creature 1 Would you
be
his
with Cutting off his ear, or
his tail; or would you knock himon the
head, and pitch him headlong into the
street 1 Now, alcohol is more than a
mad dog, for a bite from a mad dog only
destroys life, while a bite from- alehy
destroys reason, reputation, life, and
every thing else, besides dragging down
the family of the bitten man to poverty
and Want.
"But elchy dosen't bite a mouthful,
at first. When by first snapped at me he
only tickled me a little, I liked it first
rate, and was anxious to have another;
and still another bite. The old rascal
of a tyrant kept nibbling away at my
heels as though he didn't mean to harm
me, while I like a poor fool, kept coax
ing him on, until at last he gave me a
snap in earnest and took the elbows
right out of my coat! Next he took
the crown off my hat, the shoes off my
feet, the money out of my pocket, and
the sense out of my head, until at last I
went raving mad through the streets,
perfectly a victim to alchifobia. But I
,coned the pledge and got cured; and if
theiele any man who has been bitten
as I was, let him take this tetotal medi
cine, and I'll warrant him a speedy
Cure.
' But allowing alcohol is a good crea
ture of God, are there not other good
creatures, too, such as beef, pork, pud•
dings, pies, clothes, dollars and fifty
others of 'the same sort 1' Now, shall
a man cling to the one good creature,
and have the ninety and nine untouched)
Shall a man drink whiskey because it as
a good creature, and go without a good
handsome wife, and good well dressed
children I—No-sir-ree l As for me I
give me good beef and pudding, good
pork and sausage, good friends, good
clothes, a goop wife and good children,
(or bad rather than miss, and I'll try to
make'em good,) and old king alchy may
go to Texas, for all 1 care. .

Vt.,AUg.8,1846.
DltAn Ste .—lt gives me great pressure to in•
form you that the a• Oxygenated Bitten," With
which you furnished my wife, has w•retight a
Cure in her case. About two yearn since, my
wilt, was violently attacked with neuralgia in
the face, through the chest, in the wrists and
ankles. So violent was the disease, added to a
general derangement of the female system, that
her strength was completely prostrated, her Bosh
wasted, and she rendered miserable indeed. I
feel grateful for the restoration of her health, and
in duty bound to give publicity to the above
facts, that others similarly afflicted may know
where to seek for cure. ZJ'ruly your friend,
THOMAS KIDDER.
From Hon. MYRON LaWREXCE,

"Fur some twenty yearn! had infrared lasers.
ly from humeral Asthma. I was compelled to
sit, up one-third of the night. and the rest of the
time my 'deep was interrupted by violent fits of
coughing and great diffici Ity of breathing. In
all my attendance upon our court. I never went
to hod in Northampton in twenty years but twice,
and Then was compelled to get up. Now I lie
in hod without di:Benny, end sleep soandiy. I
took the .! Oxygenated Bitters," according to
direction.. The violent symptoms immediately
abated, and pereeverenee in the use of tie rem
edy has removed all its troublesome consequen
ces. Phi value of such a remedy is incalculable,
and I hope its virtues may be widely diffused and
its beneficent agency extensively employed."
