Hearth and Home makes these timely suggestions to those wlio have the care of horses: As the cold weather approaches, the absolute cruelty of putting frosted metal Into the mouths of horses is so frequently brought to mind, that any suggestion as So.a better course are at this season timely is well as merciful. So one has had to do with horses when the mercury is considera bly below the freezing-point but has wit nessed their sometimes almost frantic ef forts to escape the pain that comes of put :ing on the bridle. Misunderstanding it many times, the Coarse and brutal hostler uids blows to other brutality, and forces lie animal to take between its jaws a piece of iron that freezes its tongue and sections of its mouth the moment it touch 's them, causing not only present pain, Hit often ulceration, and almost always sores. The remedy is a leathern bit, in stead of an iron one. If a bit of this sort s not easily procured, a common iron one ■an bo covered, which will be at least a partial remedy. To do this, cover the jits with strips of common bridle-leather, md as much of the oiieek-piece as will be ikely to touch the flesh, winding them iround the iron while wet, and then care ully sewing the edges so as to make the surface as smooth as possible.

Some one thinks that burdock is an e.\ •ellent medicine lor horses. It should be •tit nntl cured before blossoming, as the dossoms and seeds are too prickly to be ised without steeping.

Dailg Jttnntitt Journal AUGU8TA. SATURDAY MORNING. NOV. 26. 1870. GEyER.iL BUTLER'S IDEAS. In ujCI, General Butler, who had sus tained Breckenridge for President, wheel ed into line with the defenders of the Union, and gave his voiee ior war and earned the gratitude of his countrymen by his prompt service in the field. All the popularity which he has achieved grew out of the course he then took. The go\ ernment was in peril. Its enemies were in arms against it. The choice lay only between war and the destruction or the Union. It was a time when every patriotic heart felt that the life of the nation was at stoke, and at once recognized the neces sity and justitiableness of war to preserve it. The war was popular because it was just, and unavoidable unless the govern ment consented to its own destruction. It General Butler achieved popularity then by stepping to the front sword in hand, it w as because he was clearly right and the act approved itself to the judg ment of his countrymen. Now, while the country is suffering the effects of that war in a burdensome debt, a deranged currency, and all the other evils that fol lowed the bloody struggle with the South, to overcome which the people have been taxed heavily and the government has been tried severely, so that it is only now, after live years of peace, we begin to feel the solid ground beneath us, it is at this time, and under these circumstances, that General Butler again comes forward and declares for war, with England. What for? To save the republican party. “Oh most lame and impotent conclusion to suppose the republican party is in the strait he assumes it to be, or that it could or would be saved by the desperate and unnecessary means which ho proposes. If the party i1 indeed in the melancholy predicament of demanding this unneces sary blood-letting to keep it nlivc, it had better die at once and forever. It is a sorry enough sight to see the crippled sol diers in our midst, made so in the cause of national preservation anil humanity, but to add thousands more to them, and millions of dollars more to inepuoncueoi just to preserve the republican party, would be a sight to make men anti gods weep. War in self defence, to beat down the assassin’s hand upon the throat of the nation, is a very different affair from war wantonly, unnecessarily entered into, and so General Butler will find the people think when he compares the plaudits he received in 1861 with the reception which his late war pronunciamento in Boston will have in the country. We fear ho has made the mistake of calculating that advocacy oi war is always popular, because it was popular when he marched to Baltimore. Let him wait and listen to the response to his speech. Let him even ask the fisher men of Massachusetts and Maiue if they desire a war with England, ostensibly to settle the Alabama claims, but really to keep the republican party alive, and we venture to say they will not be induced by the brilliant prospect he opens to them in the fisheries through annexation eft'anada to endorse his scheme. The truth is, General Butler has fallen into a grievous error. The nation now de mands peace. It has had its day of war and needs rest. War was popular when necessary, but peace is as popular to-day as war was in 1861, because peace answers best to our present circumstances. If the same need existed now as in 1861 the na tion would respond with alacrity to the call to arms, but to perpetuate, the repub lican party, not even the fishermen of Gloucester would answer aye. Neither is the republican party in want of such des perate service. There is no fear that it will die for lack of something to [do. Be cause it has achieved a great work is no reason that it should bury itself and leave that work in the hands of its enemies; but rather a reason why it should stand by that work, perfect it, add to it, wield the government which it saved from destruc tion, and in doing this it will have enough to attend to without seeking war. If, as General Butler says, it is cowardly not to fight for our rights, we suggest tiiat it is not only cowardly but criminal to make war to keep the republican party alive; the mere statement of the proposition is enough to leave it without an endorser. There is a better way to settle the Alabama claims than to hasten into war, and that way will probably be tried whether the re publican party dies or lin es on account of it. POLITICAL. It in stated tliat Secretary Boutwcll is about to take steps to compel the payment by the Pacific railway companies of the interest ad vanced by the Government on their bonds. The friends of temperance in New Jersey have resolved to petition the legislature to pass a permissive bill, authorizing the people of each township to decide by vote whether the sale of liquors shall be permitted therein. A military force is to be sent into Georgia in order to preserve peace at the approaching election. The President does not intend this as an intimidation, but as a precautionary measure, rendered necessary by the unsettled condition of affairs in that State. One of our western exchanges says “the weakness of the new party movement is ap parent in the scarcity of its followers. In all Illinois the course of the Chicago Tribune has been approved by but one Republican paper. In Ohio the only supporters of the movement are the Cincinnati partisans of Mr. Cox. With but a half dozen exceptions the Republican press of the West are a unit in their consist ent support of the Administration.” That speech of General Butler in Boston differs bat little in substance from the narra tion of bis views by the interviewer of the Tribune, which we published, if p;ngland will leave this continent, he proposes to call the Alabama buaines* settled, if not, fight. XL' 11.9 B r BALLOOX. General Troehu dined yesterday on raonkev. The surrender of Taris will take place when--• General Baaaine has not been seen since the last time. All France is ai ming. The greatest excite- ment prevails. The women and children cat Prussians three times a day. An enterprising Frenchman has invented a machine that will go off every time it is dis charged. Gambctta lias prepared several cart-loads of proclamations, which are expected to do wonderful execution. General Sheridan took dinner with His- I marck on Thanksgiving Day. Mistake— Bismarck had no dinner, and Sheridan was tt the capital of Turkey. Napoleon's private correspondence has leaked out. and so has Napoleon—out of Paris. The Empress Eugenie frankly acknowl edges that King William has a very capti vating way with him. Burnside has not gone up in a balloon yet, but the armistice has “gone up.” A fleet of balloons with correspondence for the New York papers, ran into a cloud and was carried over to Africa. Nobody hurt. Papers not hurt either by the loss. The bombardment of Paris has begun;— is about to begin; or at least will begin at some time, providing the siege continues, which there is no doubt it will if it is not discontinued. a EXE UAL XEWS. The stock of cotton on hand at Savannah is unprecedentedly heavy. Chicago is to have a society for the preven tion of cruelty to animals. A Chicago woman seeks a divorce because her husband “is not a smart man, nor the man she took him for.” Ole Bull and his charming young better half are residing in New York. Ole Bull has “hung up dc Bow and de fiddle.” Prince Gortschakoff. of Kustia, is seventy two years old. and has been in the govern ment service for nearly halt a century. Young ladies have adopted the high stand up London collar, broken at the ends, and worn in connection with bows of gay colored ribbon. Governor Seward hns telegraphed that he and liis party arrived in IVkin, China, all well. They will start for Calcutta in a few days, and thence proceed to Bombay and the Persian Gulf. I he woman sun racists nave inaugurated a vigorous campaign against the monopolizers of the ballot box, and are pushing their cause ahead with zeal and energy. The Rome (Ga.) Daily says that the thous and Chinamen who are working on the Ala bama and Chattanooga Railroad do not give satisfaction, and the experiment is not likely to be repeated in that section. The new Lord Mayor of London, Mr. Alderman Dakin, when a youth, went to Lon don to seek his fortune, lie entered a whole sale druggist establishment as salesman, and rose step by step to its head. There was a race last week on the Warm Spring Mountain, Va., between Governor Letcher and a panther, in which it is said the 1 Governor made the best time of tbe season for a short distance. A movement is on foot to send immigrant's direct from Denmark, Sweden and Norway to Mobile, and tbence to their appointed des tination. Tennesce and other Southern papers encourage the project, and it will probably be carried out. The Baptists of Jamaica, who made but little progress before emancipation, now have ninety-seven churches, with 22,000 members, and twenty-two educated colored preachers from the seminary at Calabar. Photography can now fairly lay claim to be ing an art. It has recently added seal en graving to its already large list of accomplish ments. A German practitioner of the art gives his patrons the means of sending their portraits in wax to their correspondents,and of affixing theireffigy wherever they attach their hand and seal. me uoston 4.ion s ueraiu regreis mai in the approaching trial of Dr. Lanahan, the Methodist Hook agent, before the General Book Committee, ‘'the committee which have already sat four times on his ease, should be a party," being at once complainant, prosecu tor, jury and court. An exchange inquires if it is not about time that the custom of passing solemn resolutions for the public eye, upon the decease of men of no particular account, as if for a great statesman, hero or other eminently distin guished character, should cease The cases of the assistant Marshals whose accounts with the Census Bureau show them to have been guilty of making fraudulent en tries, in order to increase the per capita com pensation allowed by law, are in the hands of the attorney General, and instructions will accordingly be issued next week to the Dis trict Attorneys of the several counties in which they reside to institute proceedings against them and press for a conviction in everv instance.

An exchange says a common mistake in the use of coal if the placing of too large a quan ity in the stove or grate at once. Coal,to bum freely, should only be six inches deep in the vessel containing it and then, if properly ig nited, there will be no trouble. By placing a few oyster shells occasionally in stoves when liot those disagreeable customers known as clinkers will entirely disappear. KE If PUBLIC A TIOXS, Charles Scribner 4 Co. have just issued the first volume of ‘‘Frederick the Great,” in their elegant edition of Carlyle’s Works, which will contain all the writings of the dis tinguished author in thirty volumes, and is edited by him. The mechanical perfection of these books has a favorable effect upon the rugged but magnificent sentences of the au thor, apparently making them less difficulty to understand, and heightening their grandeur and influence. In this life of Frederick, we see the beginning of the power which Frussia manifested under that monarch, displayed in 1801, and is now illustrating in the wonderful campaign against France. The work of mak ing l’russia what she is, a successful aristoc racy commenced with Frederick’s father, and this first volume !.s very largely taken up with j his rather strange character, which had more singular freaks than the searching of the I whole earth for tall men to fill up the ranks of his Kotsdnin Guards. Scribner Go. have published a volume containing “History of Balloons and llalloon Voyages,” translated from the French of F. I Marion, which since we see so much of the i recent use of balloons, is very seasonable. The first balloon flight was in 1783, by Mont golfier, at Versailles, and astonished the worid almost as much as the discovery of Columbus. Since that time there have been many ascen sions in them, many accidents, perils, and wonderful escapes by them, but there lias been no improvement scarcely in their construc tion. They are the same now as in 1783. Ilow they are made, in what manner naviga ted, and the history of the most remarkable ascents, are well told in this book. Another interesting work recently published by Scribner Co., is one on “Lighthouses and Lightships." This is a popular descrip tion of the Lighthouse from the oldest times to the present; of the rude llonian pharos or sea-tower, with its feeble fire of wood or coal, and the modem lighthouse, built in the ocean, and all along the coasts, shedding a strong and steady light ten or twenty miles across the waves. Tiie steps by which the present perfection of the lighthouse has been attained have been gradual. They have grown with commerce nnd the arts upon which their structure depends. Sketches of the most re markable are furnished in this hook^nnd an account given of the life of their keepers, with full particulars of the systems upon which they are administered. The same publishers send out another vol ume entitled “The Wonders ot Acoustics, or the Phenomena of Sound.” lleginning with birds and animals, the author goes on to tell how they are effected by sound, and from them to man, taking the whole range from the un musical Sloth to the philosophy and science of music as understood by its votaries ot the human race. Many wonderful things con nected witlt sound arc related, and much use ful instruction is given about it. Common as it is, it is poorly understood, and yet its won ders are readily comprehended when once explained. In a few hours of pleasant read ing we get by this volume a great deal of knowledge.

Skowhegan, Nov. 18, 1870. A meeting of the citizens of Skowhcgan Village Corporation was held last evening to listen to the report of a committee chosen by them a few weeks since to make some inves tigations in regard to the expense of putting up a woolen factory in said village. The com mittee made investigations in reference to three different sites upon which to locate. One upon the south side of the river, known as the “Cleavland property”; one upon the south side of the island, “the Weston lot”; and the third on the north side of the island owned by several parties but known as the “Grist mill lot." The price of the first with 500 inches ot water $4700 the second lot including water power, 500 inches, $0700 the third lot owned by Messrs Stlnchfleld, Varney and L. and ,T. Weston with room enough and water enough for two such factories $8600. The committee concluded that it would be for the interest of the town to purchase the lot last mentioned. The proposition by the town to Mr. Lynn of Hartland, for whose use the mill is to be erected, as reported by Col. it. II. Shepherd of Skowhegan, chairman of said committee, is as follows. That the town Bliali purchase the lot, with a sufficient water power to carry four sets of machinery; erect a building 100 feet long, 50 feet wide, and three stories high; purchase wheels, shafting, belts &c. for one set of machinery. The whole to be exempt from taxation for ten years other buildings erected upon the same lot also exempted from taxation. The estimated cost is $5000, upon which Mr. Lynn agrees to pay interest for ten years at six per cent. All that now re mains is for the town to decide what measures they will tako in order to secure the erection of the factory. This question was also re ferred to the above named committee, and meeting adjourned to December Oth. Spike. Millinery and Fancy Goods!

local ait* ifctate Kctos Thanksgiving Services. There wan a union service on Thanksgiving day, at the Methodist church in this city, o the Methodist, Congregationaliat, Free Bap tist and Baptist socictii s. Tlio attendance was small, as is apt to he the case on the oc currence of these anniversary occasions. The preliminary exercises were conducted by Rev. Mr. Penney and Rev. llr. Ricker. The sing ing by the Methodist chdir was excellent. The sermon on the occasion was preached by Rev. Mr. Martin, pastor of the Methodist church, lie said that we shall never become so old aa not to'be carried back, in imagina tion, on Thanksgiving day, to the dear old home circles, and the firesides by which our fathers and mothers sat. He spoke brief ly of the origin of Thanksgiving and the abundant reasons we have for rendering thanks on the present occasion, and proceed ed at once to the consideration of his theme —Intemperance, and the suggestion of some of the ways of stopping it. It was unneces sary to recapitulate the evils that flow from rumselling; they are too well known already. In the consideration of the subject he should speak more particularly of lour classes—the drunkard, the moderate drinker, the friends of the moderate drinker, and the rumscller. 1st—The drunkard. In some cases the love for strong drink is hereditary, drunkenness becomes a disease. Towards such he felt a deep sympathy. He would extend to this class the right hand of fellowship. If while attempting their reformation they should fall, we must take them by the hand and raise them up agnin. Hut there is another class of drunkards who drink rum for the purpose of doing evil. To these he would show the vir tue of law and punishment. Fear ol law and punishment will have a restraining influence upon them. 2d—Moderate drinkers. Why speak of these? They arc apparantly in no danger. The ranks of those who are march ing in solemn procession to drunkards' graves arc being recruited from the moderate drink ers. How comes it about? Fathers and mothers are nursing tbe appetites 01 men children lor strong drink liy dealing out to them cider, domestic wine, and the like. Let us lay the axe at the root of the tree in this matter, and banish these ‘lighter drinks' from our homes, 3d—Friends of the moderate drinker. These are the greatest sufferers. The children and friends of moderate drink ers are ruined by following the example of those whom they think secure in their moder ate use of strong drink. 4th—Kumsetlers. It is but little use to waste sympathy upon a man who will sell rum in this year ot grace, 1870. Law should be applied to him without much admixture of mercy. If a man takes the life of his fellow, the law puts him where he can do no more harm, lie would rather have his son struck down by the hand of an assassin, and be respectable in death as he had been in life, than murdered by degrees, soul and body, by the rumsetler. In suggesting the remedy for this terrible evil, he said that we are too apt to blame our police and municipal authorities tor nut en forcing the law. He was confident that they generally did their duty, but their power is limited by the indifference or coldness of the principal and influential citizens in communi ty. Let these back up the municipal author ities. stand by the police, and the law will be executed and rumselling stopped. The tem perance question should be taken out of the political parties, where its principles had been perverted, ami temperance men of all parties be brought to unite in electing to office men whose temperance principles are well known. He said it was inconsistent and useless to pass Maine laws while the United States govern ment legalizes the sale of liquor, and that its importation and manufacture should be pro hibited. This would be going to the fountain head of the evil. Some wonld retain liquor for medicine. A man who cannot live with out it, ought to die. Who ever heard ot a man dying for the want of rum'/ If he should ever hear of such a man, he would travel a long distance to visit his gave, ami putting his hand upon ihe sod that covered the sacred dust, he would exclaim, “Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord.” There would then be at least one martyr for temperance. He ex pected to see the end of the liquor traffic, and hoped to live to preach the funeral sermon of King Alcohol. It was his prayer that there should be a revival of pure religion, as in this is our greatest confidence and hope—the most blessed of all remedies. The discourse closed -with the beautiful thought that all present may be sharers in the great Thanksgiving above. At St. Mark's church in this city, Kcv. Mr. Upjohn, rector, conducted the services on Thanksgiving day, preaching a sermon on the subject of “things visible the witnesses of God invisible.” ine invisible tilings are real, tnougn wo see them not, and have a more substantial exist ence than the visible, for they are eternal. That which we see pictures that which we do not see. The natural world reveals the hidden things of God. We naturally take delight in the things of this visible world, and through them we may be led to the contemplation of things higher and even more perfect that are about us, though hidden from our eyes. My what we see of the visible part of creation we come to an increasing apprehension of und desire to realize what is declared to be held in store for those who love God. The invisi ble world will abide forever, while the visible will pass away. When the invisible shall be unfolded to our view, then shall we behold what this visible world has been all along teaching to our dull hearts and beclouded vis ions. The invisible world has always been a witness, speaking of the eternal power and Godhead of God, even through the darkest hours of error and superstition. But the witness of God in His works is made still more plain by the fuller light of the Gospel of •lesus Christ. Are we sensible of these great truths? Do we carefully remember that while we make the earth obedient to our touch and bring its hidden laws to light, that it is llis wisdom that has made them all? Are we mindful while we draw from land and sea and air the subtle forces which surround us,new und increasing stores of wealth, that all these are His riches, and do we incline to u recognition of His infinite greatness and power? In all our worldly wisdom, and in our law-making, will not preserve us from mornl and social evils. YVe must behold God who works be hind them all. The soul looks out of the eyes, and if the soul be not gazing heaven ward, the eye will receive but an earthward impression. It robs man of his spiritual na ture and makes ot him a mere animal. And wluit does this lead to, hut to the most abso lute destruction of body and soul. If God admits us into the secrets of the kingdom of nature and surrounds us with the gloriuus works of Hit hand, he will demand an increas ed homage and loyal obedience. \Ve must re move everything from us that hinders His l'reo and perfect witness of Himself in the world. Arc we urging war against all moral evils? are we laying the foundation of loyalty anil obedience and devotion by keeping God al ways in every thought and word and action In conclusion, the speaker said that the wit ness of God, this day, is found in the hearts of every household which are not blocked up with pridp and unbelief. The outward world may have made no impression upon out minds but we cannot be insensible to the fact that the life ot each one of us carries along with it the evidence of the long suffer ing and all merciful care of Him who though unseen knoweth whereof wo are made; who has laid his hand upon each one and sent us forth into the world, who sustains us in our lying down and rising up, and tills our houses with food and gladness. God’s witness is in our lives. We need not be told how he has in the year past opened His hand und filled all things living with plenteousness except to be reminded that the riches of plentiful harvests, the silver and the gold, and every store of ifood things which men to-day call their own. are all HU. We have never been able to comprehend the loving kindness that lias never failed, and that never will fail. Even in our distress we have found in Him relief. If this day finds some of us weary with the care of a toilsome life, or burdened with sad memories of other days, if the associations of to*day seem to reopen the heart’s wounds and disclose with renewed painfulness the losses of the past, may Ilia dear love so draw us unto Him that we may find in IIis presenei the consolations ot another world, and be glad in the hope of the blessed things in store. Thanksgiving passed pleasantly at the Sol diers National Asylum. Religious services were held in the morning which were well at tended At noon a sumptuous turkey dinner, with others things to match, was spreud for all the inmates. In the evening a large au dience of citizens and soldiers gathered in the new amusement hall to witness an entertain ment gotten up for the occasion. The trial of lloswcll for the murder of Mr. I.aflin will begin on Monday next. It is our purpose to give n full and accurate report oi the same in these columns. In our next is sue (Monday.) will appear a correct Diagram of the scene of the terrible murder; ibis Dia gram we have bad engraved at considerable cost, and from it our readers can obtain a very complete idea ol the premises—particu larly of Mr. Laflin's place of business, and ol Mrs. lloswcll's tenement near by. We shall endeavor to fully supply the public demand for the Daily Journal during the trial which is to be of such extraordinary interest. News dealers should send in their orders at once. The arrangement for facilitating the distri bution of the mail, adopted by Mr. [lamlcn, the new Postmaster in this city, works most admirably. IIis efficient chief clerk, Mr. Farrington, goes to Yarmouth Junction each day, where he meets the western train for Augusta, and distributes all the letters for the post office in this city into a case pro vided for the purpose, by which arrangement all this work which has heretofore been done in the office is avoided, and the office is thrown open for delivery in about fifteen min utes after the distribution of the mail. Tile mixed train from Portland ran off the track at South Gardiner, yesterday forenoon. On starting off from the turn-out the wheels of the passenger ear caught on one of the frogs of the rail, and that ear and four bag gage ears were thrown off tlie track. There was no particular damage, and only about twenty mintues were consumed in gelling the cars on the track. We have two daily mails to liangor, by the four o'clock train in the afternoon, anil the aix o'clock train in the morning. Mail mat ter for Bangor anJ beyond may be sent by the early train in care of the baggage master, no provision is made for the mail to way sta tions by this train. A Telegram informs us that William If. Wood, broker, of Portland, committed suicide in that city by banging, yesterday (Friday) morning, lie was one of the oldest and best known in his business and highly esteemed as an honorable man and good citizen. In Portland a pile of nine hundred tons of coal has been on fire at the gas works, since Thursday night, but it is hoped that it will be extinguished without great loss.

T, HELMBOLD’S CONCENTRATED Fluid Extract Buchu. TII E GREAT DIURETIC. The Proprietor trusts that his Remedies, from the fact of being advertised, may not be classed as Pa tent Medicines. BUCHU, in one form or other, has been presented by every educated Physician for more than TWO HUNDRED YEARS. II. T. IIELMBOLD claims a superior mode of extracting its virtues. The experiments were made while engaged in the DRUG business in the city of Philadelphia, nineteen years ago, prompted by the alarming increase of diseases of the Bladder, Kid neys, Gravel and Urinary Organs, existing in both sexes. These diseases were justly attracting as much attention as diseases of the Liver, or any other vital organs of the body. Upon the sound and healthy condition of these important organs, the healthy and harmonious action of the nervous sys tem and Liver, and consequently the'happiness of the entire human family, depends. That Buchu should act upon both Liver and Kidneys, to pre pare it so that it would retain its strength and active principle, was his aim. it must not be made, as housekeepers make tea, by boiling. It is a delicate Leaf, and its active principle would be destroyed by such a process, it must be prepared in VACUO, and from the Long-leaf, iresh and carefully se lected. THE SUPERIORITY OF MY MODE OF PRE PARATION BEING ACKNOWLEDGED, 1 now ship even to the point (CAPE OF GOOD HOPE), where the leaves are gathered, large quantities of MY FLUID EXTRACT. IN FACT, THE ARTICLE STANDS PRE-EMI NENT, AND is KNOWN IN ALL PARTS OF TIIE WORLD. The lirst and most important object was to offer to the afflicted a remedy that was perfectly safe, and could be taken by adults and children. Igno rant persons, who pay no attention to dose, direc* tiou, or advice, might reason, “That if a teaspoon Ail, taken occasionally, did good, two would do better, and perhaps a bottle would cure in a day.” Many have broken down their health by dis&ipa tion,and on his principle; but they had been years in doing so. mint i would nave understood. I;4, mai no injury can arise from its use. It is as safe as any article of food; but patients must not expect any medicine to rebuild a wrecked or shattered constitution in a few days. This truth is so self-evident that it would seem unnecessary to repeat it, were it not for the fact that thousands of persons who are intelligent in all other matters, seem to think unreasonably, that a cura tive agent must exhibit its speciiic effects immedi ately, when the fact is, that time is often an impor tant element in the progress of a safe and thorough cure, even when the medicine is working the best results. These same persons would expend HUN DREDS, yes, THOUSANDS of DOLLARS, in articles of LUXURY and DISSIPATION, and think less of it than they would of FIFTY DOLLARS in medicine to rebuild a BROKEN DOWN and worn OUT CONSTITUTION. Notwithstanding the number of years I have been engaged in business, there may be those located at a distance that may not be aware of all the facts, and would like tu be satisfled on all the points. Having been educated a druggist, I append the fol lowing From the Largest Manufac turing Chemist in the World. “Ian, acquainted with Mr. II. T. flelmbokl; he occupied the Drug store opposite uiy residonce, and was successful in conducting the business where others hail not been equally sn Indore him.

I propose to give evidence that this Remedy is not a patent medicine. The objection which gener ally lies against all discoveries and inventions in medicine is “publicity.” If somebody should dis cover a remedy to prolong life, or an infallible cure for cholera or consumption, w hat a monster would he be to withhold his knowledge I We have yet to learn from what chapter or verse in Scripture to quote, “that may not heal others of their fellow men of any disease.” Nor hove we asked Pickw icks, affected prudes, or, in short, men w ho arc possessed of every kind of sense but common sense, and all kinds of opin ions but their own. The Buchu is a good thing. It has hundreds of thousands of living witnesses to attest its virtues and commend it. It is the preju dice of bigots and the envy of “Quacks.” We offer the following evidence SEE JOURNAL OF PHARMACY. SEE REMARKS MADE BY I)R.

IIklmin»li>, Dear Sir We introduced your -‘Fluid Extract Buchu” in this country about eight months ago, and are happy to elate that it in meeting with universal favor. Me wish to inform you of one instance (among many) where your “Buchu” has worked wonders. A man in our county, named J. II. lis ten, had been suffering about five years with grav el. About six weeks ago he bought of us one bot tle of vour “Buchu,” and before he was through with one bottle he passed a gravel that weighs eight grains, which we now have on exhibition in our drug store, lie says he never will be without the “Buchu” in his house again. Your preparations are gaining favor every day. Very respectfully, yours, Ac., E0GLE*S filXKLE, Druggists. Cure of Bladder and Kidney Af fection of Long Standing Stone Passed and to Be Seen.

I liave suffered by spells very much for a few days past; bill ye.ter, day relief came thngigli the effect of your “fluebu."

THANKS TO MR. IIELM IJ 0I.1)'. Girard, Pa., March 31,18W). Editor Cosmopolite I desire, as an unsolici ted tribute to the merits of IIelmbold’s Bitghu, and for the benefit of those similarly afflicted as myself, to say that after consulting many eminent physicians and trying nearly all the best advertised remedies, in the vain hope of finding relief from aggravated kidney and bladder diseases, from which I have suffered excessively for many years, good fortune finally suggested to me Hki.mhold's BUCHU, which I commenced using with little faith, and no apparent beneficial effects for about a month. At the expiration of that time, however, I thought I commenced to experience slight relief, which encouraged me to persevere in its use, and now at the expiration of four months, although I am an infirm old man, nearly seventy-eight years of age, and consequently medicines cannot be ex pected to favorably affect mo as they otherwise would, I have found such unspeakable rebel and permanent benefit from Mr. llelmbold’s valuable discovery, that I feel I ought to publicly record the fact, as an acknowledgment to him, and a valuable suggestion to the public.

SfR In regard to the question asked me as to my opinion about Bu« chu, I would say 1 have used and sold the article in j various forms for the past thirty years. 1 do not think there is any form or preparation of it I have not used, or known to be used, in the various diseases where such medical patent 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 i of Buchu—the powdered leaves, tincture fluid ex- j tracts—and i am not cognizant of any preparation of that plant at all equal to yours. Twelve year*’ experience ought, I think, to give me the right to judge of its merits, and, without prejudice or par tiality, I give you precedence over all others. I value your Buchu for its effect on patients. 1 have cured w ith it, and seen cured with it, more j diseases of the bladder and kidneys than I have ever seen cured with any other buchu or any other proprietary compound of whatever name. Respectfully yours, Ac., GEO. II. KEYSER, M. D., 110 Wood St„ Pittsburg, Pa. August 11,li#Jf>. A Case of Twenty Years’ Standing. Philadelphia, Pa., June 25,1HG7. II. T. Helm hold, Druggist— Dear Sir: I have been a sufl'erer for upwards of twenty years w ith gravel, bladder and kidney affections, during which time I have used various medicinal preparations and been under the treatment of the most eminent physicians, experiencing but little relief. l’laving seeu your preparations extensively ad vertised* I consulted my family physical! in regard to using your Extract Buchu. I did this because I had used all kinds of adver tised remedies and had found them worthless, and some quite injurious; in fact, I despaired of ever fretting well, and determined to use no remedies terealier unless 1 knew of the ingredients. It was this that prompted me to use your remedy. As you advertised that it was composed of buchu, cubebs .and juniper berries, it occurred to me and my phys ician as an excellent combination and with his ad vice, alter an examination of the article and con sulting again with the druggist, 1 concluded to try it. I commenced to use it about eight months ago, at which time I was conttned to my room. From the first bottle I w as astonished at the ben eficial effect, and after ju-ing 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 iuy improvement might only be temporary, and therefore concluded to defer, and see it it would efi'ect a perfect cure, knowing then it would be ol greater value to you ami more satisfactory to me. I am now* able to report that a cure is effected, after using the remody for five months. I have not used any now for thr»»e months, and leel its well in ail respects as I ever did. Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant taste and odor, a nice tonic and invigoratorol' the system, 1 do not mean to be without it whenever occasion may require its use in such affections. M.
