I was going up the Mississippi in 1848, Judge Underwood of Kentucky and Henry Clay being ou board, “That’s a tough crew irom Natchez,’’ remarked the clerk, who came upon the deck as we were going below. “They play hard and high." “Let's go and Took on for awhile,” said tin* Judge. We went down into the saloon, where we found two parties at play. At one of the tables sat four men, about whom were gathered a large number of lookers-on; and, as these proved to lie the heavy play ers, we joined the group of spectators. The game was twenty-deck poker, and money'was eKatt&IWJTteinfls with spark ling rapidity. One of the players, amid- tile-aged mini whose face showed hut too nja nTv the ravages of an excess that was sapping his life, and, 1 afterward learned was a cotton planter, had staked his last dollar and “t ailed'’ his opponent’s hand. He held four queens, against which was laid down four kings.. And he was “bro ken." He started to his feet as though he would leave me lame. “Are ve dead broke, colonel?” a$kcd he of the, fimr kings. “Yes, to the last picayune.'1 “Can't you borrow “No,” replied the planter with au oath, “I can do better than that. Where’s Wackman “Here," answered a dark visaged man. “Bring the boy and girl here that I bought at Natchez. Hold on the game just one minute, gentlemen, and I'll make a taise.” The man went away, and shortly re turned accompanied by the “girl and boy.” Said “girl” proved to be a bright mulatto girl of five anti thirty, or there abouts, and the “boy was her son. The boy was not far from ten years of age, with*a face lighter in color than was his mothers; his features really handsome. “Look here, gentlemen,” spoke the planter, rising, “here's as likely a pair for a girl and her brat, as you can scare up. I paid eight hundred dollars lor ’em. Who'll give six?” “Why not put ’em up separate? “Twon't do to sell them separate. The* gal has sworn that she will kill herself if her hoy is sold away from her; and her old master says she'll be sure to keep her word, But don't you see the woman is worth more'n I ask for the pair? Now what d’ye say—who'll take ’em at six hundred The owner then waited a few seconds without receiving an answer, and then said: “I must have the money; so here goes for a raffle. Twenty dollars a throw, and thirty chances for the pair. Come, gen tlemen, let us see the color of your coin. Them that buys first will throw first.” Here was excitement as well as chance for profit. The three players at the table took two chances each. Then the spec tators surged up, and twenty chances were sold as fast as the planter could take the money and write down the names. Then came a lull. The planter himself took two chances, whereupon his three companions took each one more. Then three men “doubled up” “Two more chances, gentlemen.” Clay whispered apart to the Judge and then made his way to the table, and threw down two gold eagles. “What name “Give it to the woman.” “Ah!—the girl herself?” “Yes. Give her a chance.” “All right. One chance for Ninette 1” Before the planter could eaJl again. Judge Underwood had placed twenty dol 1 lars upon the table, saying as he did so: “This is for the boy.” j “<lood I" cried the owner of the proper iv, “Here’s a chance for Tommy. And that takes the lot. Where's the clerk T' “Here.” “Have you got blanks for this sort of business?" i es. ‘•Thou wont ye till up a bill of sale of these two—Ninette aud Tommy and leave a place to put iu the name of the winner? Now fur the dice, gentlemen." The dice were brought on, and the shak ing commenced. There were three dice, aud each player was entitled to three throws. Of the first ten throws, thirty-six was the highest uumbey oast. The elev enth throw turned up forty-two. Then the scores fell again till the twenty-first throw, when oue of the gamesters threw out forty-nine. The crowd were now all excitement. Forty-nine was a hard point to beat. The lowest number to be thrown was nine; and the highest (nine sizes) was fifty-four; making what is called an average throw, about thirty-one aud one-half. Of a hun dred throws, the majority will fall below thirty-two. Again the dice rattled in the box, as the second gamester took his turn; but his throw was a low one. The twenty-eighth throw belonged to the clerk of the boat, who had now returned with the bill of sale, lie threw forty-nine tying the game ster. “Come, Ninette! It's your turu.” The woman started and quivered, and pressed her hand over her heart. Only the groaning and puffing of the engine broke the stillness of the place. “Will the gentleman who paid for the chance throw for me?” she said in a low musical tone, earnest and imploring, and of purest accent. “Let your boy throw for you," returned Mr. Clay, who shrank from the ideal. “Ills luck should be better than mine.” Tommy came forward and took the box. 1 Ilis mother's hands were clasped, and her I lips moved in prayer. The hoy trembled like an aspen. What a world of weal or woe hung upon the fickle chance He held in his hand the sealed book in which was written the fate of his mother and himaelf, and it was to be opened upon the hazard of a die 1 He shook the box aud turned the dice ou the table. Three aces! A moment he

gjUiHl on the throe single spots, and then dropping the box, he sank back, pale and ftt'igntened. "Shake again. Tommy," said the planter. "It's of no use master. I can’t get for ty-nine.” ••But you've got your own chance, my bov.” "Aye.” cried the judge. "That was your mother's chance. Now threw for yourself -•threw for the ch ince I gave you—brace j Up, and take heart—and may heaven help j you r That was not an assembly of religions-! Jv inclined persons by any means; but the fervent petition of the judge met with i a warm and impulsive response of "Amen" from nearly all present. Again the boy came forward and lifted the box. His Tips were tightly shut, ami the old quivering of the limbs was hushed., The only sound Til that saloon, above the deep breathing of the spectators, was the clicking of the ivory cubes. Presently the first throw was made. “Five—five—six, are sixteen!” announc-: ed the planter, setting down the figures. The dice were gathered up and thrown again. ••Six—six—and five. Good! That’s sev- enteen.” The boy was pale as death as he took the box for the last throw, ami his mother leaned against a stanchion for support. At length—and the box was opened! "Three sixes!—eighteen—and that's fif ty-one Tommy mv i«>y, you're a trump! Nmv, Mr. Clerk, fill up the bill of sale, and I'll sign it before these witnesses.” The scene that followed can be better imagined than described. The last time 1 heard Ireui Judge Underwood he was alive and well, though long retired from active lire. Nin tte was his house-keeper, and Tommy his trusted and truthful henchman.

IRISH REI URLICASS. The Irish Republican Central Club of of New York bus sent out an address to j Irishmen, warning them against the dem- j .tcratic party and urging them to enlist under the banner of the republican party. It says To the record of the Republican party for the last ten years we earnestly nvite the attention of all thoughtful and inprejudiced Irishmen. Tiny are no; lir and oppressed of all nations. LOOK OUT FOR FRAUD. The census" is revealing clearly the j cheating practiced by democrats in New j York. The tenth election district of the Sixth ward was made to give in May last 934 votes of which 884 were for the dem ocratic ticket. The other day the census of this same district was completely and officially declared, and THE ENTIRE POPULATION, men, women and children, aliens and all, IS ONLY EIGHT IIUN- j DUEL) AND SEVENTY. This is the j party that talks about honestly admin-! istering the government. Yook out for your voting lists and ballot boxes on the i 12th of September! 001X0 BACK OX TIIEIR RECORD. The nomination of General Roberts who was in the war through the McClellan campaign, is making a great flutter among the democratic politicians. They are all coming out with bran new records, show ing how patriotic they were in the war, and putting on a military air as they walk the streets. Their friends who supported them on their peace, anti-war. copper head record, can hardly recognize them in their new coats. The Portsmouth .Journal says that “a carefully prepared table of Government expenditures shows that, aside from those growing out of the war, they amounted to about $2 per head of the population of the country during the last year of Mr. Buchanan's administration, while under the administration of Gen. Grant they amount to only about $1,64. This fact will not probably prevent our democratic j friends Irom continuing to harp on repub lican extravagance and all that sort of j thing, but it will show with what little j grace such charges are made by them and with what truth they are uttered.’’ POLITICAL. The Bangor Whig and Courier publish-: es a numerously signed call for a public meeting at Norembega Ilall. next Satur day evening, in favor of Governor Cham berlain for United States Senator. ,J. Glaney Jones, formerly a prominent democratic politician in Pennsylvania, is an aspirant for Senator Saulsbury's place for United States Senator from Delaware.

The little items published from time to time, stating the progress of flu* company in ils or ganization. equipment and drill, awakened a a general desire o see the company out on parade, and raised the highest expectations in regard to their appearance. None were disappointed yesterday, but all looked with pleasure and pride upon the fine body of men, each member of which bore himself with the digni y of a veteran and marched w ith a pre cision that indicated thorough drill. All that has been said about the makeup or materitl of this company is well sustained by the in spection of a street parade, and invites the closest criticism. The uniform, which we have already describid, is of a dark blue color and consists of swallow-tailed coat, neatly trimmed, three rows of buttons in front; epaulets with gilt and white fringe; pants with light blue stripe trininu d w ith silver lace; caps close fitting and jaunty, trimmed with a white cord surmounted with a blue ami white plume. On the belt, cap and cartridge box are the letters G.” The entire uniform cost each member about $10.

The 13ih corp* of 50,000 w hich has been recruiting in this city has left Paris going in a noithcasterly direction upon the line ot the maim*, and will form a junction with the right flank of McMahon's army rear Rhcims. With regard to the disposition of tin Prus sian forces the army of Prince Frederick harks is estimated at 100,000; that of Gen. Steinmetz 130,000; the total force of the Crown Piince at 150.000. McMahon is operating with cth, gives the billowing: Mr. Washburn, tlu Ameiican Mini-tt r. has a laird time of it. The Germans in France are under his protection. Every German who i* arrested under the prov isious of the re cent proeI muni in of G.*n. l'roclm demands at i once to lie taken before Minister Washburn j for exainination. No American has yet been cap'tired as a Pius.'ian spy, while ten out ot every dozen Englishmen have arrested. The Telegraph adils that Americans do not travel like Eng lishmen, with their chest of plate. The for m r carry their countless diamonds in their vest pockets and chignons. The Prussians entered Vouziers on the lui ls of the retreating French. King William’s route to Paris is by the Up per Marne and Meuse. The French frigate which has been in the hart or of L* nwick, Scotland, sail* d thence in Sunday, alter repairing In r engines. She had received notice from the lSiiii-h govern iliint to leave. The Parisians of all rank* have been en rolled tor the defence of the city. Special to New York Tribune: Our correspondent telegraphs trom Verdun Monday afternoon at 5 o clock that no news I had been received there of a great hatth which was reported to have been fought. There are many Prussians around Mousscn. Dun and Steiiay. Ki ports of cannon and musk attacked the rail way station at Uhanveiuy, wide was guarded by fitly Fiencli soldier*. The fight listed one hour, during which there were seven killed and five wounded. The Prussians took 2* prisoners and burned the station. A correspondent of the Tribune writes from Meii u s on Sunday *•1 left lb tlul yesterday morning and was one day on the road. On my arrival lieiv I found no troops except the garrison, hut the Punee Impeiial has arrived during the day with an escort of Cent Gardes. The Emperor slept at Toutcron night be fore last and started yesterday forLesichesre, sending the Prince Imperial here at the same time. This morning the Prince and escort j started at halt past ten o’clock for Azrect. His destination. 1 am privately told, is Sedan, thus proving the Prussians have not as re ported cut the railway between Mcsieres and Sedan. The Prince Imperial goes by the road indeed, but he would not be sent for ward uulcsslhc neighborhood w as clear of the enemy. .We start to-morrow for Moiitnicdy and Sedan. To-day there arrived several hundred artillery horses and some guns for the rail.part* here. It is certain that McMahon does not mean to tight tor some days. The National Gardes here under arms ate in uniforms, 40 years old and are wholly un di died but ready to rigid. The Mobiles have no uniforms at all, but look soldierly. The persecution of correspondents con tinues. Ail have been expelled from Kethcl, on all who the authorities could lay their hands. A correspondent of the Tribune writes from the Crown Prince head-quarters at l.igtty, the 24th inst: ‘•This is a great day in the campaign of the third army. The King Mol ike and Bismarck have arrived. The streets have been choked with Bavarian troops from morning until late this after noon. The word is forward to Paris. Ti e infantry, chi airy. artillery, wagon trains, and everything move ceaselessly forward. The troops are in excellent condition. The same correspondent adds a sentence, showing that the Prussians knew a week since of the last French movement. The Kmperor is re ported to have gone from Chalons to Rhcims. Some think he will try to return ai d march to the northward of the Germans, to review the troops at Metz. Dispatches from the Prussian General Headquarter*, dated Sunday noon, declare that Bazaine’s communications are completely cut oil, and all telegrams printed in Paris as from him, must have been manufactured there. The squadron* of Chasseurs defeated at Bnyancy and nearly annihilated, belonged to the 12th regiment They were commanded by Lieut. Col. La Porte, who was wounded and captured with many others. A special despatch from Berlin says An-tria is secretly arming, nil j.ftirer* and soldiers now on fuilough being recalled and other warlike preparations being made. The object of this policy is unknown. The French authorities to-day stopped trawl via. Calais to Paris, and the Bougonne route will probably be closed to-morrow. Great preparation* are being made at Charlcvillc near McMahon’s position, fertile accomodation of the w ounded. The junction* of McMahon and Buzaine are Hot di."paired of. Italy will not permit another power to re place the F.cneli forces at Home. A despatch from Antwerp says that the evident inert asc of bitterness with which France and Germany conduct the war, is de plored there, as it postpones all hopes of peace, and meanwhile the depression of trade and commerce continues. The Prussian harks Brilliant and Perle have been captured in the Mediterranean by French cruiser*, and taken to Oran. A despatch dated Madrid yesterday says rumors of a disquieting nature are in circula tion relative to affairs in Cuba. It i-> said D Kodns ha* demanded 12 000 to *uppiy grt at losses of hi* fore* s occasioned by siekncas, and that recruiting goes on slowly. d -patch dated Brussels to-day say?. Mc M; ho i about to m ake a desperate effort to fore hi" way from Sedan alongside Mont mi dy ami Thionviile railroad, with the object of attacking from the North whatever Prus sian forces may be gathered in the triangle f..ruled by the foitresses of Metz, Verdun and i out. regardless of their number".

The halt Mf the Prussians in their march on Pari* gives time lor the anival of enormous ieiufoicements, now oil the way from the Province', and the capture of the city is con sider* d impossible now. Advices from all parts of the* provinces in vathd. show that the sharpshooters are be coming v» ry tllicient. They capture num bers of Prussian scouts and stragglers, and n p. I attacks on towns and villages. The presence of sit irpshoots ami the guard Mobile encourage* the country people who now put on a bolder front, lq some cases they i iiw attacked the enemy, killing ami wounding quite a number, and at n any places tli y resist the exertion'* before tarn* ly sub mitted to. Should the Prussians be defeat* d tlu ir retreating columns will be terribly luir tassed by those irregular forces wlioeven now bang upon the enemy's line. Two of the leaders in the recent riotous affair of the Boulevard** *lc Vilh t*. appeared before tb*- Council of War to-day. They con fessed the attack on the station, and that they attempted to rise in open revolt. Two others accused of having in their possession stores of arms, also appeared at the tiial. It has transpired that Blaiseus the Italian conspira tor was here at the time of tin* riot, and lodg ing with one of the active participators. The trial i- still in progress. The Opinione Nalionnle demands that as the Prussians shoot the country people, France should teach Prussia that it this position con tinues. she ill take no prisoners, and that she will become one ut the extermination. Thu population of the suhurlis of Paris seemed panic stricken at the tirst news of the rapid approach of the Prussians, and crowds of the country people living near, rushed into the city with ail their cti'ccls. Calm reflection however soon succeeded, and the same per sons lately so terrified, are now energetically pi t pal ing tile city for defence. The President of the Swiss federal council hearing that Prussian etmnisseries were seek ing to bribe certain Journals in Switzerland, have issued a circular warning all parliis llut neutrality must be strictly observed. Special to Herald. London, Aug. JO. Despatch from Copen hagen to-day says that the French iron clads Anilide and Uocliamheau are anchored this morning off Fiederickhaven Julian.

Forty-two new guns were placed in position. Fighting has taken place between advanced forces of the armies on the raihoad from; .Monlmedy to Paris. Stirring news is expected from McMahon.

Brittany will soon send an immense number of volunteers to the army. A legion of foreigners are organizing in this city. Thirty thousand persons entered Paris yesterday from the neighboring country. The police are to he organized Into regiments. Numberless wagons loaded wiili furniture are eouiing in from the villages around Paris. Important news is expected to-worrow. There is no doubt hut a great and most im portant battle will take place at once. The condition of the French troops is excellent. McMahon has also received large reinforce ments. Bazaine has been abundantly sup plied with provisions and munitions. Paris is now fully prepared to resist an attack. The authorities are exceedingly active. The working men declare that they w ill de feud the city street by street should it be come necessary. The Democratic and Re publican Journals are as ardent a> others in urging tiie defence.

pnifjr jftfitnrkr Journal. Under the rules of tlic United States Treasury all mutilated hank notes are re deemed, according to the degree of mu tilation. A note with a certain portion of its superficial surface torn off is never re deemed at its full value, but in proportion to the quantity of superficial surface pre sented for redemption. Since greenbacks were introduced the redemption division of the Treasury has been constantly en gaged in redeeming this mutilated cur rency. and an account of the discount has been kept, which shows an aggregate up to the present date of 180,fi93, which the government has thus saved. The National Hank Gold Notes, which Comptroller Hulburd is preparing, are to be printed on yellow paper. Thus the public will be again enabled to carry yel low boys in its pockets without feeling the weight of gold. It is reported that the opposers, under Baez's leadership, to the annexation of St Domingo are apprehensive of a renewed attempt to affect another treaty and are actively engaged in creating an unfavor able feeling to the measure throughout the island. 0.

The Kidneys are two in number, situated at the upper part of the loin, surrounded by fat. and con sisting of three parts, viz the Anterior, the Interi or. and the Exterior. The anterior absorbs. Interior consists of tissues j or veins, which serve as a deposit for the urine and convey it to the exterior. The exterior is a con- j duefor also, terminating in a single tube, and called the Ureter. The ureters are connected with the bladder. The bladder is composed of various coverings or tissues, divided into paits, viz: the Upper, the Lower, the Nervous, and the Mucous. The upper expels, the lower retains. Many have a desire to j urinate without the ability; others urinate without the ability to retain. This frequently occurs in i children. To cure these affections, we must bring into ac tion the muscles, w hich are engaged in their vari ous functions. If they are neglected, Gravel or Dropsy may ensue. The reader must also be made aware, that who- ever slight may be the attack, it is sure to affect the bodily health and mental powers, as our flesh and j blood are supported from these sources. Goi'T, or RIiei matism Pain occurring in the j loins is indicative of the above diseases. They oc cur in persons disposed to acid stomach and chalky concretions. The Gravel.—The gravel ensues from neglect j or improper treatment of the kidneys. These or- j guns being weak, the water is not expelled from the bladder, but allowed to remain; it becomes fever- j ish, and sediment forms. It. is from this deposit that the stone is formed, and gravel ensues. Dropsy is a collection of water in some parts of the body, and bears different names, according to j the part?* affected, viz: when generally diffused over the body, it is called Anasarca; when of the abdomen, Ascites; when of the chest, Hydrotho rax. Treatment—Helmbold’s highly concentrated compound Extract Buchu is decidedly one of the best remedies for diseases of the bladder, kidneys, gravel, dropsical swellings, rheumatism, and gouty affections. Under this head we have arranged Dysuria, or difficulty and pain in passing water, Scanty Secretion, or'small and frequent discharges of water; Strangury, or stopping of water; Hema turia, or bloody urine; Gout and Rheumatism of the kidneys, without any change in quantity, but increase in color, or dark water. It was always highly recommended by the late Dr. Physick, in these affections. This medicine increases the power of digestion, and excites the absorbents into healthy exercise bv which the watery or calcareous depositions, and all unnatural enlargements, as well as pain and in flammation, an* reduced, and it is taken by men, women, and children. Directions for use and diet accompany. Philadelphia, Penn., Feb. *25,I8fi7. H. T. IIelmhold, Druggist—I)kah Sir I have been a sufferer for upwards of twenty year* with gravel, bladder anti kidney affections, during which time I have used various medicinal preparations, a ml been under the treatment of the mo*t eminent physicians, experiencing but little relief. Having seen your preparations extensively ad vertised, I consulted my family physical! in regard to using your Extract Kuchu. 1 did this because 1 had used a’l kinds of adver tised remedies ami had found them worthless, and some quite injurious; in fact, I despaired of ever getting well, and determined to u-e no remedies hereafter unless I knew of the ingredients. It was this that prompted me to use your remedy. As you advertised that it was composed of buchu, cub'ebs and juniper berries, it occurred to me and my phys ician as an excellent combination and with hi» ad vice. alter an examination of the article and con sulting again with the druggist. I concluded to try it. I commenced to use it about eight months ago, at which tune I was confined to my room. From the first bottle I was astonished at the ben eficial effect, und alter using it three weeks was able to walk out. I felt much like writing to you a full statement of my case at the time, but thought •ny improvement might only be temporary, and therefore concluded to defer, and see it it would effect a perfect cure, knowing then it would be ot greater value to you and more satisfactory to me. 1 am now able to report that a cure is effected, alter using the remedy for five months. I have not used any now for three months, and leel as well in all respects as 1 ever did. Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant taste and odor, a nice tonic and iuvigorntor of the system, I do uot mean to be without it whenever occasion may require its use in such affections. M.

Do you feel weak, debilitated, easily tired? Does a little extra exertion produce palpitation of the heart? Docs your liver, or urin ary organs, or your kidneys, frequently get out of order? Is your urine sometimes thick, milky or flocky, or Is it ropy on settling? or does a thick skum rise to the to*p? Or is a sediment at the bot tom utter it has stood awhile Do vou have spells of short breathing or dyspepsia? Are your bowels constipated Do you have spells of fainting, or rushes of blood to the head Is your memory im paired Is vour mind constantly dwelling on this subject? Do you feel dull, listless, moping, tired of company, of life Do you wish to be left alone, to got away from even body Does any little thing make you start or jump? Is your sleep broken or restless? Is the lustre of your eye as brilliant The bloom on your cheek as bright Do you en joy yourself in* society as well? I>o vou pursue your business with the same energy )>o you feel as much confidence in yourself Are your spirits dull and flagging, given to fits of melancholy? If so, do not lay it to your liver or dyspepsia. Have you restless nights’? Vour back weak, your knees j weak, and have but little appetite, and you attrib ute this to dyspepsia or liver-complaint Now, reader, self-abuse, venereal diseases badly cured, and sexual excesses, are all capable of pro ducing a weakness of the generative organs. The organs of generation, when in perfect health, make th mail. Did you ever think that those bold, de fiant, energetic, persevering, successful business men are always those whose generative organs are in perfect health? You never hear such men emu-1 plain of being melancholy, of nervousness, ot pal pitation of the heart. They are never afraid they I cannot succeed in business’; they don’t become sad and discouraged; they are always polite and pleas ant in the company of ladies, and look you and them right in the face—none of your downcast looks or any other meanness about tfiem. 1 do not mean those who keep the orgms inflated by running to excess. These will not only ruin their constitutions, blit also those they do business with or for. How many men, from badly cured diseases, from the effects of self-abuse and excesses, hi ve brought about that state of weakness in those organs that has reduced the general system so much as to in duce almost every other disease—idiocy. lunacy, paralysis, spinal affections, suicide, and almost every*other form of disease which humanity is heir to. and the real cause of the trouble scarcely ever j suspected, and have doctored for all but the l ight i one. Diseases of these organs require the use of a Dili retie. HELMBOLD'S FLUID EXTRACT IIUCHU i is the great Diuretic, and is a certain cure for dis-( eases of the Bladder, Kidneys, Gravel. Dropsy. Or- ganie Weakness, Female Complaints, General De-1 bility. and all diseases of the Urinary Organs,! whether existing in Male or Female, from whatever cause originating, and no matter of how long stand- j inf. If no treatment is submitted to. Consumption or Insanity may ensue. Our flesh and blood are sup Iiorted from these sources, and th** health and nippiness, and that of Posterity, depends upon prompt use of a reliable remedy.

Allow me to call your attention to my PREPAR ATION OF COMPOUND EXTRACT BUCHU. The component parts are BUCHU, Loni; Leaf, CUBEBS, JUNIPER BERRIES. Mode of Preparation.—Buchu, in vacuo. Juniper Berries, by distillation, to form a flue gin. Cubebs extracted by displacment with spirits ob tained from Juniper Berries; very little sugar is used, and a small proportion of spirit. It is more palatable than any now in use. Buchu, as prepared by Druggists, is of a dark color. It is a pjant that emits its fragrance; the action of aflame destroys this (its active principle), leaving a dark and glutinous decoction. Mine is the color ol ingredients. The Buchu in my prepar-, ation predominates; the smallest quantity of the j other ingredients are added, to prevent fermenta tion; upon inspection, it will be found not to be a Tincture, as made in Pharmacopeia, nor is it a Syrup—and therefore can be used in eases where fever or inflammation exists. In this, you have the knowledge of the ingredients and the mode of pre paration. Hoping that you will favor it with a trial, and that upon inspection it will meet with your appro bation. With a feeling of confidence, I am, very respectfully, II. T. IIELMBOLD. Chemist and Druggist of 10 Years’ Experience. [From the largest Manufacturing Chemist in the world.] November 4, 1854. “lam acquainted with Mr. II. T.

Indisposition to Exertion, Loss of Memory, Wake fulness, Horror of Disease, or Forebodings of Evil; in tact. Universal Lassitude, Prostration, and ina bility to enter into the enjoyments of society. The constitution, once affected with Organic Weakness, requires the aid of Medicine to strength en and invigorate the system, which HELM HOLD’S KXTRAn’ HUCHU invariably does. If no treat nient is submitted to, Consumption or insanity en sues.

Helmbold’s Fluid Extract Huchu and Improved Hose Wash w ill radically exterminate from tin* sys tem diseases arising from habits of dissipation,’at little expense, little or no change in diet, no incon venience or exposure; completely superseding those unpleasant and dangerous remedies, Copaiva and Mercury, in all these diseases.

It is pleasant in taste and odor, “immediate” in action, and more strengthening than any of the preparations of Hark or Iron. Those suffering lYom broken-down or delicate constitutions, procure the remedy at once. The reader must be aw are that, however slight may be the attack of the almve diseases, it is cer tain to affect the bodily health and mental powers.
