CHRONIC RHEUMATISM CUREDr

GEoReErowN, JAN 81, 1853
DEAR SIR: It is with sense of gratitude. and q
desire that others suffering from disease may be in
duced to use the Extract Of Beech Drop that con-
sent to give the following statement for publicity
Until the last month was q sufferer from Chronic
Rheumatism, from the effects of which my heallh b
war SO completely undermined and broken up, that
lost 20 or 80 pounds of my usual weight. Anxious
to find some relief, rescrted to the most approved
patent medicines. I used a number Of bottles Of
Townsend's Sarsaparilla and exhausted the list Of
Liniments, without any effect. My joints now be-
came enlarged and the pains in my limbs SO excru
ciating, that they had to be rubbed two or three
times night. The muscles of my legs were SO con-
tracted that presented the appearance of maa OF
sixty-hve when walked In this condition, more
through curiosity than belief in its good effects
or twelve days the swelling about my joints had sub
sided; and now, after the of three bottles am
able to resume my business, and can walk with the
same ease and comfort that formerly did.
Yours truly, &C., ISAAC BARRETT,

THE STATE OF CAMDEN AND AMBor.

The monopoly question is just now being vigorously
discussed among our neighbors of Camden and Am
boy; and the immediate occasion Of the discussion
appears to be an edct recently addressed by its
eregn to bis faithful and having reference to
matter of the smallest kind. Last spring it seems,
the boys at Toms River in Yves; Jersey in fit of wan
tonpess dressed up some rags in the form of human
body and then hung it up having first baptized it by
the name of the railroad autocrat who reoices in
monopoly of the power of carrying his subjects and
their products to market and back again from market.
After the lapse of four months Com. Stockton sue
ceeded in extracting from of the doughfaees of
the neighb0rhood letter of apology to be used as
peg upon which TO hang letter m which, after lsud
ing himself bis friends and his associates in the mo-
nopoy to the skies he has been graciousy pleased TO
express bic Willingness thft the Toms River boys
shall enjoy "tte largest liberty in reference to
hanging him in efigy, or to any other species of
amusement that may be agreeable to them, provided
only that they continue fast and arm in their ale
glance to the monopoly and himself.
That letter is now being reviewed at length in Tie
Tteafon State Gazette, in series Of articles in
which not only are its motives handled without
gloves, but the conduct of the monopoly Companies
laid bare for the examination OF the world ut
large, as we'll as that Of the Commodore's subjects.
The exposure is sickening one, &c may be inferred
By our readers from perusa of the following ques

to furnish reply:

LIauOR-sELLEns CONVICTED.

After tedious trial of six seven days, Jury has
been found in the Ninth Ward who have agreed to
convict man for selling rum without license: The
first case that has been decided is that Of VIM. Ma
son. proprietor Of dram shop know as the Adriatc,
No. 463 Eudson.st. The first Jury disagreed, although
Justice Mech charged them that they could not dis
credit the testimony, which positive, direct, sui
cient and unimpeached On the second trial an at
tempt was made, which partially succeeded, to exclude
from the Jury every man who abstained from the use
of liquor or was opposed to the liquor traffic even
conducted in the grogshops.
The case was tredbefore Justice VIM. B. Mech Of
the Third District Court The evidence clear and
conclusive, and the main defense was the assertion
that as the Board of Excise had granted cen in
the Ward those who had license lastyear would hold
over till Board OF Excise should be elected that
would give license, and also that the door is wi
open for every one who pleases to cell.
The Jury paid no regard to the defense, and it is
understood differed only as to the amount of penalty.
-Four were for $780, the extent of the jurisdiction Of
the Court but after hours struggling yielded to
the other two and agreed upon verdict of s9j and
costs The parties met yesterday morning and agreed
that the urteen other commenced at the
time should all be decided in the way, and udg-
nent was rendered accordingly. The following are
the persons who are thus convicted, all residents Of
the Ninth Ward:
William Mason No. 400 Hndsonst.; Charles Watkins
No. go Carmnest.; John Mack No. GA Greenwich-st;
Alexander Robertson, No. l0l Greenwch-av.; Charles
Murray No 1873 Greenwich-ay. John Lswrits, No. II

This is however, but the beginning of the end; sew
era of the above named and others to the number Of
about fifty illunder Indictment The Temperance
Alliance have commenced suits against seventy others
for selling without license, and fifteen or twenty for
selling on Sunday. Many others are held to bail to
answer indictments that may be brought, and large
number of others still ready for the next Grand
Jury. Meanwhile other trials are progressing every
Day or as often the attention OF the Courts be
gained, and new complaints with new witnesses are
being brought
have prepared q complaint against the Mayor and
several others of the Excise Commissioner for Civ
ing licenses illegally This complaint not made
to the Grand Jury last week only because time ia
expected to be given by the Court this month to any
but prison cases. We call attention to this matter,
for we suppose that very few of the people of this
City aware Of the extent the success or the re-
suits of the efforts new being made to suppress the
liquor traffic in this City.
