And fewer still would suspect that it was only an accom modated and altered translation of an ancient parabolical hymn sang by the Jews at the feast of the pas sower, and commemoration ot the principal* vents in the history of that peo ple. Yet t uck is the fact. The original i* in the Chaldean language. TV© hawe ftiin.sl.ed a literal translation of it and add the interpretation as given by P. N. Lebrecht, 1731 A kul, a kid my father bought For two piect* of money— A kid. a kid. Then came the cat and ate the kid That my father bought For two pie res of money— A kid, a kid. Then came the dog that bit the cat That ate the kid That my father bought For two pieces of money— A kid, a kid. Then came the staff that beat the (log That bit the cat That ate the kid That my father bought For two pieces of money— A kid, a kid. Then came the fire that burned the staff That beat the dog That bit the cat That ate the kid That my At.ier bought For two piece* ot money— A kid, t kid. The:} ucy— A kid, a kid.

That killed the angel of death Hi at killed the butcher That slew the ox That drank the water That quenched the Arc That bunted the staff That beat the dog Tluft bit tile oat That ate the kid That my father bought For two pieces of money— A kid, a kid. The following is the interpretation 1st. The kid, which was one of the poor animals, denotes the Hebrews. The father by whom it was purchased, Jehorah, is repre sented ax sustaining that relation to the He- I brew nation. The two pieces of money sig- j nify Moses and Aaron, through whose modi- ation the Hebrews were brought out of Egypt 2d. The cat denotes the Assyrians by whom the ten tribes were carried into captivity. 3d. The ilog it a symbolical of the Bab ylon! ana. 4th. The staff signifies the Persians. Sth. The lire indicates the Grecian Empire under Alexander Die Great. Gth. The water betokens the Homans in the fourth of the great monarchies to whom tlie Jews were subjected. 7th. The ox is a symbol of the Saracens who subdued Palestine and brought it under the Calip at 8th. The t utcher that killed the ox denotes the ctusai. ,rs by whom the Holy land was wrested out of tic hands of the Saracens. Uth. The Any of death signifies the Turk ish power by which the laud of Palestine was taken from the Flunks and to whom it is still subject. The couitueuceimnt of the tenth stanza is intended to show that God will take signal vengeance on the Turks immediately alter whose overthrow the Jews are to be restored to their own land and live under the govern ment of tht-ir long expected Messiah.

Dear Sir: I ommei. d taking your “Extract of Buchu” about two week- since for an affection of the bladder and kidneys. I have suffer'd by spells j verv much for a few days past. But yesterday re bel a me through the effe t of your “Buchu.” A stone passed uiy bladder about the size the merits of Hcliubolri’s Buchu. and for the lamellt of those similarly afflicted as myself, to i sa.v that alter consulting many eminent physicians, and trying nearly all the best advertised remedies, in the vain hope of finding relief from aggrivated kidney and bladder diseases, from which I have suffered excessively for many years, good fortune finally suggested t*i me Ifelm bold’s Buchu, which 1 commenced using with little faith, and no apparent beneficial result- for about a month. At the expir ation of that time however, 1 thought 1 commenced to experience, slight relief, which encouraged me to persevere in its use, and now, at the expiration ol four months, although I am an infirm old man, nearly 78 years of age find consequently medicines cannot be expected to favorably affect me as they otherwise would, I have found such unspeakable relief and permanent hem-tit from Mr. Helinbold’s valuable discovery, that I feel 1 ought to publicly record the fact, as an acknowledgement to him and a valuable suggestion to the public.

III.i.MiioLD—Dear Sir: It Is with much pleasure that 1 write you upon facts respecting mv- j self. 1 do not know hardly how to express niysou. i I have been for Uie last ten or twelve years the great -'t sufferer man could be and live; but more sometime-' than other-. The* complaint was the “Kidney** and “Bladder." I have been sometimes from tw’elve to fourteen hours, and wanted to make water every minute, but» d not. Have consult* ed doctors,'both iu M nu-etts and this .State, and taken pills, I may-1.3 by the quad, also liq uored medicines, but found no relief from any, and got worse the last six months. J was so that 1*could scarcely get about. I could not rest night or day. It would soon Have been “all up" with me if I had not seen your advertisement in “The Berkshire Courier” headed “Kidneys.” I read it through ami thought I would try it. 1 purchased a bottle, but, mind you had uot much faith in it. Why should J, when I ha i been try mg so many things and cost me i so much i Well, I began taking it, and before I had taken the lint bottle l felt bad but 1 Itnished it and got another. By the time l took half of the second i 1 still got worse (apparently). When 1 walked it seemed us if my right kidney was railing from its place, and 1 felt really bud. I felt so, before I Had mushed the second, that 1 had made up my mind it j vhs of no use trying any more—and all this time the Buchu" was doing its work, but I did not know' t; so I gave it up and went to Hartford oil 1 Saturday to see one of the best doctors In the city. I He said it was the neck of the bladder, and 1 should l have to undergo tin o|tor,Uion. He gave me mod icine, anil I went home quite downhearted. Ou Sunday I wus unable to go to church. 1 hud not taken any of his medicine, but on my return cnntiu- ued using the Buelm,” and !u the afternoon 1 had j a desire to make water, but could not. Alwiit one I hour after thift 1 tried again, with the same result; j but the next time 1 took the vessel it wfhh the name i as turning a faucet and stopping it off again. It was so for three times, and the third time there was something came through the passage and struck against tin* side of the vessel. 1 examined it, and it is the ugliest stone or gravel you ever saw, nov* ered over with little peic.es widen coHoted together. U looks the color of a mud turtle, and is as hard as a flint. Si you see theMBurhu” was doing its w ork although 1 uni- feeling so badly. I procured an other bottle thinking their might be some more be hind. but since that has passed, which Is eight weeks ago last Sunday, I have boeu as well as ever I was in my life. I have the stone securely w rapped and those who have seen it in this place are sur prised. 1 cannot tell you all, but this is a true «4ory j of my case, and you am welcome to make such use j of n»y name as you tlunk proper. I am pretty well knowu In Berkshire; also in Connecticut. Tne ad- vertist incut saved n»e. Why not publish more? The ispriugflcld Republican is a wide-spread paper.

HrlMBOLD—DEAR sir: In regard to the question asked me as to my opinion abotft Uu chn, I would my I have used and sold the article in various forms for the past thirty years. 1 do not think therein any form or preparation of it I have not used, or known to be used, in the various diseases where such medicate agent would be indicated. You are aware, as well as myself, that it has been extensively employed in the various diseases of the bladder and kidneys, and the reputation it has ac quired, in my judgment, is warranted by the facts. I have seen and used, as before stated, every form of lluchn—the powdered leaves, tincture, fluid ex j tracts—and 1 am not congnizant of hue preparation of that plant at ail equal to yours. Twelve years i I experience ought, 1 think, to give iue the right to j judge of its merits; aud, without prejudice or par liality, I give yours precedence over all others. I value your Hiichu for its effects on patients. I have cured w ith it, and seen cured with it, more diseases of the bladder and kidneys than 1 have ever seen cured with any other Bncnn or any other Kroprietary compound of w hatever name.

H elm bold, Druggist— Dear sir: I have been a sufferer for upwards of twenty years with j gravel, bladder and kidney affections, during which time 1 have used various medicinal preparations, and been under the treatment of the most eminent physicians, experiencing but little relief. Having seen your preparations extensively ad- j vertised, I consulted my family physical! in regard j to using your EqtractdJuchu. I did this because I nad used a’l kinds of adver* Used remedies and had found them worthless, and 1 some quite injurious; in fact, 1 despaired of ever 1 fretting well, and determiued to use no remedies lerealier unless I knew of the ingredients. It was i this that prompted me to use your remedy. As you advertised that it was composed of biichu.» ubebs and juniper berries, it occurred to me aud my phys ician as an excellent combination; and with ins ad vice, after an examination of the article and con sulting again with the druggist. I concluded to try it. 1 commenced to use it about eight months ago, at w hich time I vas confined to my room. From the first bottle I was astonished at the ben eficial effect, and after using it three weeks was able to walk out. I felt much like writing to you a full -t tement of my case at the time, but thought my improvement might only be temporary, and therefore concluded to defer, and see it it would effect a perfect cure, kuowing that it would be ol greater value to you and more satisfactory to me. 1 am now able to report that a cure is’ effected, after using the remedy for five months. 1 have not used any now for three months, and teel as well in all respects as I ever did. Your Bnchn being devoid of any unpleasant taste and odor, a nice tonic and invigorntor of the system. 1 do not mean to be without it whenever occasion may require its use on such affections. M.
