    POETRI7.-
HENRY CLAY.
RE GEORGE D. PRENTICE,
With voice and mein of stern control,
He stood among the great and proud,
And words of fire burst from his soul
Like lightnings from the tempest-cloud;
High and deathless themes were crowned
With glory of his genius born,
And gloom and ruin darkly frowned
Where fell his bolts of wrath and scorn.
But he is gone—the free, the bold—
The champion of his country's rights;
His burning eyes are dim and cold,
And mute his voice of conscious ;night,
Olt no! not mute—his stirring call
Can startle tyrants on their thrones,
And on the hearts of nations fall
More awful than living tones.
The impulse that his spirit gave
To human thought's wild, stormy sea,
W ill heave and thrill through every wave
Of that great deep. eternally,
And the all.eirclirg atmosphere,
With which is bleat his breath of flame,
Will sound with cadence deep and clear,
In storm and calm, his voice and name.
Ms word that like a bugle blast,
First rang along the Grecian shore,
And o'er the hoary Andes passed,
Will still ring nn forevermore.
Great Liberty will catch the sounds,
And start to 'miser, brighter life,
And summon from Earth's utmost bounds
Her children to the glorious strife.
Unnumbered pilgrims o'er the wave,
In the far ages yet to be,
Will come to kneel beside his grave,
And call him prophet of the free.
'Tis holier ground, that lowly bed,
In which his mouldering (arm is laid,
Than fields where liberty has bled
Beside her broken battle blade.
Who now in danger's fearful hoer,
When all around is wild and dark,
Shall guard with voice and arm of power,
Our freedom's consecrated ark?
With stricken. hearts, Oh Godl to thee,
Beneath whose feet the stars are dust,
We bow, and ask that thou wilt he
Through every ill our stay and trust,
PERSEVERANCE.
"Gteat men are not al wears tvise," it an
adage that needs no illustration at our
hands. Great men may do very foolish
things and be anything but great outside of
their sphere of eminence. Every politi
cian knows that the greatest general in the
world may write letters of which a school
boy should be ashamed. And because a
man be eminent as a statesman, is no rea
son to rely upon him as a superior finan•
car, or a philanthropist.
Yet all great men, whether of the field
Of the forum, whether the dispenser of
peace from the pulpit, or mercy to the
inmates of the prison. of whatever gr, de
or sphere, have had all one characteristic
—Perseverance. Alexander is among the
first names on the first pages of history.
Yet had he lived in our day, his appella
tine would have been Alexander the
fool ," for certainly no fool of this time was
ever more foolish than he. His whole
course of life was an almost continuous
display of unwise rashness. But he pos
sessed a will, and a persi verance that made
him a conqueror in all that he undertook.
From his victory over Bucepahlus to the
lost act of his dissipated life, this great
feature is all we see to remember.
Julius ft reser was another of the world's
heroes. True, he was a nine of ability
and learning,*an boner to himself, an orna.
anent to his age and his country.' But his
-victories and his greatness was but the
results of the pers6rernoce with which
•his sagacious determinations were urged
fulfillment.o So with Napoleon, and so
with Washington. A man of resolution
and perseverance, no matter in what age
Of whet ' capacity, will always be great.—
In our timen%we admire but few characters
with a greater fervency than that of Jack
son. Not so much, indeed, on account
of his peculiar views, for some of them
were unpopular, ns for she will and the
honest pereeverance with which, notwith
standing this circumstance, they were en
forced. During his administration every
one, from Nicholas Biddle down to Louis
Phillippe, knew who was President.—
His determination was his character, which
made hini the nom for the times." And
so with every great man.
On the contrary. the monarchs and
kings of history, who have lacked this
great principle—are the hard names we
can remember, however easy of wiling.
raphy or euphonious in a und. Such
men are mere ciphers, They make no im
pression on the world, either for good or
ill, but like the supernumeraries of the
stage, are here only to'fill up the scenes,
and thee pass away to be forgotten forever.
Now, as the principles of science are
serviceable only as they are ipplicable to
the arts and the a ants of every day life, so
our study of ourselves and the history of
our race should be used to a good account
in catering to our present necessities. Ev
ery man has his sphere, and can be great
in his way, even in his humility. Some
one has said that even if he were nothing
but a boot•black he would strive to be the
best boot-blank in London. Anti so in
every department there is a point of excel
lence greater than has yet been attained—
one step nearer to Oerfection. than has yet
been occupied. But this point can never
be .reached without a perseverance so
strong and so determined that it cannot
and will not be turned aside. We cannot,
indeed, be all great generals, or great
Presidents, but we can be great carpen
ters or blackam silts, or tailors, or merchants
Or great men. •
We are all aiming' at greatness in some.
thing. We are fighting the great battle of
life. We are running a great race either
for fame, for favor, or for gold. And shill

litlittlll.oolollo SALT;
A Perfect Substitute
For the Lancet. Leeches and Blisters fl
when the undersigned, idler a long series of
labottous and costly experiments, became fully
confirmed in his conviction, that the kittiptilo
gistic Salt which he now has the happiness to
present to the American public. was a
PERFECT SUBSTITUTE
for Blood-letting, Leeches and Blisters, his
mind was so agitated that he could not sleep for
n ; toy
nights. The cause of his ngitation was
the itr;k:^i tact, that the menial of its operation
l i k e the, of ,;,:" viral in vaccination, could slot
bra satist'actorialy e yolaincd upon any known
principle. Mow, in who: " S Y. it so effectually
subduer] inflammatory Disease and no others,
was at first wholly inexplicable—but, fin further
experiment, it was provad that it enitali,". 4 11 a:
flub!, of the body, the went of an equilitir:llm i.. '
sublet!, is the sole cause of inflammation. Such
is its potency, that like the vaccine matter, :it
requires merely sat adheres to the point ofa quill
dipped into a solution of it, to effect the entire !
system—hut must be instantly used to prevent'
deeomposltion and secure its full virtue. Three
quills in Heine, and two in chronic diseases, '
every 24 hours, till the heat, pain and febrile ac
tion have subsided, anti a perfect ; cure effected.
When it takes the place of blisters, ointment'
and leeches in local affections, as Brain Fever,
Croup, Toodinehe, Pleurisy, &e., its mode of
administration is two-fold. (See directiin of dis
solving. tte.) .
The discoverer has withheld it from the pub- ;
lie till now, by the advice of n judicious physi.
cian and valuable friend whom ho consulted-1
a gentleman known and felt in the Medical
world—and who desired to submit it to the test ;
o f experiment. After witnessing under his own'
scrutinizing eye, its signal.triumph over both
acute and chronic inflammatory diseases, in re
peated anti re-repeated trials, he, offered $25.-
000 to come in as a special and equal partner in
the Recipe for its manufacture, but the propo
sal WAS rejected.
The disuse of the lancet and blisters, is do-
; I
mended both by humanity by humanity end
science. Is it not a mistake, to suppose that
a kettle of boiling water (the inflamed blood)
will cease to boil, by dipping out a part of it—
or
a cask of had cider (had blood) be made j
good, by drawing a portion of it? Is it not m ;
mistake, to suppose that blisters and ri/ancients
will remove inflammation. when They virtually '
superiuld one inflammation to another 2 The
late fir. B. Watortrou., of Harvard Universi
ty, said "1 ern sick of learned unlekery„' One '
of the most eminent physicians lit New Englund
neknowledgeti Mit before his death, that 'The
I een doubting for many yenrs, wethor Hood
hating and blisters did not aggrarate rather
than arrest disease." Some who stand
high in the Old and New school, liave quite re
cently eupousnd his views end now openly con
fess, they believe the lan.et, serous leeches lied
blisters injure ten where they benefit one—
They think there is n meaning to Deut. 12, 23

blood (There never is too much) that causes di
scos, but Tile Wont of a bal.ce between the
fluids and solids. . I
The special excellence of the Antiphlogistic
Salt, is that without the useless lets of blood
and strength, it effectually subdued inflammato
ry diseas,, (no others) by producing an equili
brium of all the fluids in the body and a caste
(lant uninterr u pted circulation. It exerts, like
the vaccine mattcrond extraordinnty influence
over the v rims and aricrics—resulting in a grad
ual decline of inflammation as indicated by the
pulse, which assumes its natural state as the
beat, pain tins fever dissappear.
Gr Many medicines offered lbr sale, are
hacked by doubtful certificates, (their elicit' vir
tue) and claim to be universal nullifies, curing
all malidies—a burlesque on entunton sense;
As the discoverer of this Salt, solemnly protests
spins; having It placed in the category of
frauds and inmetititms. he line resolved that it
shall go forth to the world, like the pure gold
stellar, with no otherpassport than its true val
ue. f tha public find it genuine, they will re
ceive it—if spurious, they will reject , and con
demn it. Instead of being a panacea for all ills,
it has control over but one ill,—hos but one aim

or locality—wether in the head, throat chest eh

The tbllowing. different /obits which the un
balanced fluids assume, and many not here men

(nu others)are as perfectly cured by. the Anti
phlogistic Salt, as lire is extinguished by water.

In April, 1856, as near as I can rememember

I used poultices of sorrel, and a wash of blue
vitro], without effect. Finding the sore extend
ing I called on Dr. Ely, of Sehellsburg, who
pronounced it CANCER, and prescribed a wash
of sugar of lead and bread poultices. Finding
these remedies of no avail. I called upon Dr.
Shaffer, of Davidsville, Somerset county, who
' also piontiunced the disease Cancer and gave
tee interne' end external remedies—the latter

! said to be a never-failing remedy, but It had no
effect whatever in checking the spread of the'
sore. In December, of the same year, the dis
ease had eaten away a greater part of my upper
lip, and had attacked the nose, when I went to
Cincinnati where I consulted Dr. R. S. Newton
of tire Electic Medical College. Ile pronoun

applied mild nine ointment, and gave me inter
nal remedies. My face healed up, but the in
domination was not thoroughly removed, In
February, 1857, he pronounced me cured, and
I loft for home. In April the disease again re
turned, and so violent was the pain that I could
not rest at night. Late in May I returned to
Cincinnati, and again placed myself' under the
charge of Dr. Newton, with whom I remained
lend' September, during which time he used
every known remedy, and partly seem ed iu
checking the disease, but when I returned
home there were still three discharging ulcers
upon my face. I continued using Newton's
preparations, and also medicine that 1 got from
• Dr. Ely, but the Cancer continued growing on
til if lied eaten off the left side'of my nose, the
greater portion of lily left cheek, and had wreck

and also that the ulcers commenced drying up.
