'DR. HooFLAND's GERMAN BlrTERs.-We
are trying this renowned medicine Tor stubborn
disease of the bowels, and can with truth testify
TO It's efficacy. We have taken the contents o
two bottles, and we have derived more bene fl
from the experiment than we derived previous

hands OF our first physicians
Hon. c. d. Hineline, Mayor Of the City OF
Camden, N. j., SAYS:
.sHooFLAND's GERMAN BIT1ERs.-We have

MI the source from which they came induced
us 10 make inquiry respecting It's merits. From
inquiry we were persuaded to use it, and must
say we fonnd it specific in its action upon dis
eases Of the liver and digestive organ, and the
powerful influence it exerts upon nervous pros
traiion, is really surprising. II Gains and
strengthens the nerves, bringing Them into
state OF repose, making sleep refreshing.
If this medicine was more generally used, we
are satisfied there would be less sickness. as
from the stomach, liver and nervous system, the
great majority OF real and imaginary diseases
emanate. Have them in healthy condMion
and you can bid defiance to epidemies general

clerk in New York, charged with
s!eaiing letters ca1taining money

cpntenGs that he is not amenable to
the penalties under the statute, for
lhe reason that the letters which he
il charged vii b opening were not
genuine epistles, but decoys; never
attended to be forwarded, and
hence. without the pale Of The law.
X is further argued that the rings

Hle purpose Of detecting the NAL
practices of which the prisoner is

as legitinately enclosed, for The rea-
SON that they " ere placed imme-
