GENERAL REMARKS
These medicines are indebted forth eir

purifying the springs and channels of life, and
Senduing them with renewed tone and Yigor,
and TO the undoubted fact that at a very early
period in their history they had rescued suf-
@:ferers from the very verge of an untimely
grave, after all the deceptive nostrums of the
day, prescribed by physicians, had utterly
failed, in which cases they also permanently
Occurred that uniform enjoyment of health,
without which life itself is but a partial
blessing.
A supreme remedy for fever and ague, and biz
Lows teger8 !-No remedy in the world equal

TO THE AMERICAN PUBLIC.

NEWARK, N. j., Dec. 10, 1912.
l. MeSsrS. Sands: Gent-Words cannot ex-
press the gratitude I feel for your treatment
to me, a stranger suffering under one of the
most IoathSome diseases that nature is capa-
Bile of bearing. The disease with which |
was afflicted commenced with inflammation of
the eyes, in the year 1886, which caused al
most total blindness. For thisI was treated
and finally relieved, but the remedies were
such as to cause the development of a scrof.
uIous affection on my left arm near the elbow.
The pain extended from the shoulder to
the end of my fingers, and for two years my
sufferingS were beyond description, [ tried va
rious remedies and consulted different phYsi-
clans in New-York and amongst them the late
DR.. BuShe, who told me the disease Of the arm
was caused by the large quantity mercury ta-
ken to cure the inflammation of my eyes.
NY suferings continued, the arm enlarged,
tumors formed in different places, and in a
few months discharged, making ten running
ulcers at one time, some above and some be-
low the elbow, and the discharge was so of
fensiYe that no person could bear to be in the
room where | Was-I then applied to another
distinguished physician who told me amputa-
ton of the arm was the only thing that could
save my life, as it was impossible to cure so
dreadful a disease; but as | was unwilling to
consent to IL ne recommended me 10 use
.Swaim's Panecea freely, which I did without
deriving little benefit. "For three years l was
unable to raise my hand TO my head, to comb
my hair, and the s~crofula now made its ap-
pearance on my head, destroying the bone in
different places, causing extensive alterations
and I feared it might reach and destroy the
brain-the head swelled very much, accom-
panied with violent pain, numerous external
remedies were recommended, but they did no
good.-About a year since | was taken Sc
verely i'll with a swelling Of the body from
head to foot, so that | was entirely helpless,
the Doctor advised me to go to the Hospital,
for he did not understand my case; for the
last few months I had been afflicted with a
severe pain in both sides, at times so hard |
could scarcely get my breath. A hacking
cough constantly annoyed me, and this COM
bined with my other maladies, rendered me
miserable. Such, gentlemen, had been
situation for seven years of my life when
commenced the use Of your SarsaparilIa,
out as my case considered hopeless, and the
near prospect of speedy dissolution seemed
Inevitable, / felt but little encouragement TO
,ersevere. The persuasion of friends induced !

The subscriber having invented a lamp by
which planters can burn lard while making
sugar., instead of oil, would respectfully call
their attention to this lamp. BY using this
lamp they can save rs per cent on their light,
not burning more than thirteen ounces of lard
in fifteen hours and giving a brighter light
than the oil lamp.

cal Legislators 10 indulge in visionary spccu-
lations of legisIating for mankind, or our
country, as if all things pere as they should
be; or indulge in the Ethiopian notion that
nations and men are by US to be placed in

things as they in fact now are. Let us now
inquire what is in fact the extent and con-
dition of this woollen interest If il be still
of little importance, and is standing in the
way of greater interests, it may be policy TO
offer il up as sacrifice and holocaust to ma
tional prosperity aud in such case the suf
ferers must take 10 themselves the consola-
ton of having suffered for their country's
good But if it is found to have become a
great interest, interesting great numbers of
our people, and prosecuted without injury

A FAcT.-We heard an old revolutionary
patriot say the other day, in Orange county,
that he had lost $50 by reading the Vermont
Patriot. We asked him in what way he had
lost that sum. "Why," said he, 81 read the
Patriot last summer, and il said that the pres-
ent Tariff would not help the woo-growers,
first time | had an offer for il. But" said he,
81 shall never be deceived by il again, for I
will never believe what il says" The above
is literally true. We trust there are many
more who will not be deceived by what these

MAYOR HARrER AND THE TEMPERANCE CAUSE.
Already we begin TO that the declarations of
our new Mayor, in his message, unlike those made
by many of his predecessors, really meant some
thing. On last Sunday very marked evidence of
the reforming spirit which he has promised to man
fest, was exhibited in the closure of many low
groggeries and shops in various quarters of the
city. Every friend of good order and morality
must be gTathed by this These vile haunts of
dissipation and Sabbath PROCLAMATION have been
sad disgrace TO our city, and trust that before
the year be terminated, many, If not al of those
low drinking shops will be closed forever.
By removing the means and incentives TO drunk
enness amongst the lower classes, a death-blow 10
struck at the root of vast amount Of vice. proiga-
cy aud crime Of large cities We have every con-
fdence thu; under the administration of Mayor
Harper and his colleagues, mitch will be done TO
eradicate the demoralIsing vice of intemperance,
and TO promote those habits Of sobriety which are
the only foundation OF individual and social
order, prosperity and happiness. Mr. Ilarpers
warm and energetic attachment to the cause of
temperance, not of the least of his recon-
mendatons TO the sutfrages of the enlightened and
order-loving portion of his fellow citizens, and there
is no fear that his devotion TO that cause will he
less ardent and active now that he occupies the
honorable and responsible Office Of Mayor of this
mighty metropolis. We perceive that a new as
sociaton, called the United Brothers of Temper
ance,' has been organized under his auspices This
society combines benevolent and charitable pur-
poses with the grand object of the reformation of
the inebrinie, and the prevention of intempeTance
1t is composed Of u number of highly respectable
and influential men, md promises TO be very popu-
lar and successful. Through its agency and the
influence Of Mayor Harper, we expect to see a
this city, and throughout the country indeed and
which the mission of Father Mathew will increase
to mighty and overwhelming enthusiastically.
