NOTFCE!!
JAMES w. SCHAUMBURG.
a COWARD, LIAR AND syyINDLER.

In my efforts to collect a claim justly due tC
me from JAMES w. SCHAUMBURG, l have
fully realized the fact that | have had to deal
with "A mean and unprincipled man-a liar, secin-
djer, cOacard and l,Oktroon. To handy epithets
with this man is not to my taste. L inflicted
personal chastisement upon him, under which he
crOuched like servile cur, only to re-enact the
braggart when escaped from my blows. would
speak of him in terms that sef-respect suggests,
could such language describe him; but it will
not. He is though, stratting in places frequen-
tel by gentlemen, too contemplate to admit of
the application to him of the language | would,
were it possible, with pleasure address, or use
in relation to him. He is now in this city for
the purpose of prosecuting what he terms n
'claim for reinstatement III the Dragon Corps
of the Army = but it cannot be that honorable
corps will ever again be disgraced by the asso-
citation of such despicable and dastard!y crea-
ture, To make manifest the justice of these re-
marks, l submit to the public the following al
legations, which | shall, in a short time, sustain
by abundant proof, in a small pamphlet, viz:
Ist. He is a coward, because he dared not re-
sent fOgging given him by 1t. y, of
the Navy, at the National Hotel. ID He is
liar, because he stated in a note to the editor of
the Philadelphia Ledger that he had, chad no
difficulty with Mr.. Fuller at the National Ho-
tel, - and which was duly published in that pa
per. And further, during the time he was suff-
erlng under my castigatiOn, he promised to pay
me Il Dlll afterwards Qe3llSQ 1t
Sd. He is q swindler, because upon false repre-
sentations he succeeded in obtaining bed and
board, wines, liquors, and cigars from my faith
er and myself "A. Fuller & Co., at the City IIo-
tel and the Irving Hotel, to a verv large amount
knowing that he never meant to pay for the
same. And finally, James W. Schaumburg, is
a lying 6rdggGrt--a 6achbiting knare; arho after
saceating under my castigatioa for ttcelee long
months, endeavored to disparage me by vile, !
odious, cowardly publication l take occasion
to make this publication in advance Of the PAM
phlet, because | desire to put hotel keepers,
boarding house keepers, and tradesmen, on their
guard against this Jeremy Diddler.' Whether
Ie is accustomed to alias not, l am unable (
20 say, but think it proper to give brief des-
,ription of him. He is about six feet high-a !
orm well made up by tailors, and always very
ancifully dressed, in style between the Beau
and the B'hoys-large savage grey |
large burn on his face, caused by |
alling into pot Of boiling taffy when a child
small grey eyes, deeply set in his head so small
md insignificant, indeed, that they are hardly
o be seen-hat set on his head "a la Mose'-
small cane in his hand, the scarecrow of all the
title boys whom he happens to meet; and so he
waggers up and down the Avenue, the ridicule
f men and the disgust of women.

FROM SoUTH AMERICA. The following letter
viii show that Earthquakes and Civil Wars are
not all the calamities they have to provide against
IN that quarter of the world. Diseases incident
to our own climate, also find their way there, as
viii be seen by the remedy they seek for protec-
ton.
Valparaiso, Chili, s. A., July 90, 1S4S
To Dr. j. E.. dyer, DC,
Dear Sir We have the pleasure to report on
your shipment of Cherry Pectoral to our house,
the whole quantity sold, and pressing demand
for more, which must await the arrival of fur
ther supplies Its success in curing diseases of
the lungs, and its consequent notoriety, has ex-
celled any medicine used in this country.
Most of our remedies here are imported from
England, and some of them are rich and valua-
BILE but no product of medical skill from that
or any other quarter has won so fully the
confidence of our population as this beautiful
preparation of yours.
The article has attracted particular attention
among our most distinguished citizens, from the
fact that General Bulnes, President of the Re-
public, and the highest officer in the Stote. was
cured of severe and dangerous affection of the
lungs, by its use. He allows us to send his
name, and wishes to add the acknowledgements
OF gratitude for his relief.
We have the honor to be, sir
Very respectfully,
our obedient servant,

An ounce cfJact is worth pound of theory
and the swarm of conclusive facts that cluster
round that incompatible preparation, Hoofand )

Philadelphia, establishing its value as tonic

credulity itself from questioning its efficacy. In
all cases of disease of stomach, whether acute or
chronic, 1t may be recommended for its soothing
cordial, and renovating influence. Dyspepsia
heartburn, loss of appetite, nausea, nervous tre-
mors, relaxation, debility, sc. are relieved, by
the Btters in a very short space of time; ana

..Justicen and the Sentinel.

Some weeks ago we published an article in
reference to the conduct of the employers of the
Penna. Railroad, Johnstown, in taking and
retaining possession of house built by Mr..
Clark near the Station House. writer in the
CdnlJriaa, under the signature of Justice says
our article was .'no doubt, written in Johns
town, and the Sentinel paid for inserting it,
Such was not the case. The particulars of the
outrage we derived from respectable gentle
man, who is no politician, political aspirant
the Cambrian to the contrary notwithstanding :;
from those particulars, as stated to us in let
ter we wrote and published the article referred
to, not receiving, asking, desiring any pDy for
the same. We thought at the time, and still
think, that the action of the Railroad officials
in the premises, was unpardonably wrong and
gross violation of private rights. If the house
was built upon the property of the company,
there was remedy through process of law to
remove it, instead Of resorting to force. In
this connection, we maysstate, that against the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company entertain
no unkind feelings, but are as desirous of fur
thering their interests as any one in the Com
mo ,weath, believing that the road is beneficial
to the people and of immense advantage to the
trade of the West. Willingly would we aid at
any time, in placing that Company ON an equal
ity with any private citizen in reference to the
conveying of passengers over the State improve
ments, or in doing aught else to benefit them,
not incompatible with the interests of the State,
but it cannot be expected that we should remain
,uiet, when the employers Of the company take
he law into their own hands instead Of refer
ng it to the proper tribunal.

named Fuller, who is still suffering from the
wound with but slight prospects of recovery
The cause of the outrage was the posting by
Fuller of the following article, which exceeds
anything ofthe kind we ever read in the English
language, and we little wonder that it led to
such disastrous results -
