Among the States of the Union, Ohio
holds no secondary place. Surpassed by
many iu extent and by two in population
and wealth, she confesses inferiority to
none in the elements which constitute the
true greatness of q State. Great in pow
or. and great in resources; she is greater
stiIl in her unsullied faith, in her zeal for
education, in her sympathy with suffering,
in her fidelity to right and in her devotion
to liberty. These are jewels in her crown
Of honor. Let itlbe our honorable ambi-

DISEASE VANQUISHED

By DR. Roback's Scandinavian Remedies.
A FTER years of study, analysis and expert
n ment, DIR. Roback, the eminent Swedish
Physician, succeeded in producing medicine
from the mountain herbs of his native land,
which acts directly upon the causes of disease
in the blood and by restoring the corrupted
fountain of life to a condition of health and
purity, expels disease from the system wher-
ever it may be located, or whatever may be its
character. Indigestion, nervous complaints,
epileptic and other fits, coughs, consumption
in its early stages, sore throat bronchitis, fever
and ague asthma, low spirits, sexual incapa-
city, feminine weakness pricking of the skin,
symptomatic of paralysis, rheumatism, neu-
ralgia, tumor, cancer; diabetes, lassitude and
debility. diarrhea, and all other disorders of
the organs of respiration, the liver, the kid
neys, the stomach, the nerves, Or the muscu-
lar fibre, are unerringly cured by this prepa
ration. 1t is to the materies morbi, or seeds
of disease, what an alkali is to an acid; it neu
tralizes them with absolute certainty, while at
the same time it regulates the secretions, re-
moves Instructions from the bowels, creates
appetite renews bodily vigor and regenerates
every animal function. Such is the nature,
such are the effects of DR.. Roback's famous
SCANDINAVIAN BLOOD PURIFIER which, taken in
conjunction with his BLOOD Pulls, will not only
obliterate the most painful diseases, but pre-
vent their recurrence. and lengthen life be-
yond its ordinary span.
To prevent imposition, purchase only of re-
spectacle druggists, &C., of regular agents, or
of DR.. Roback, sole proprietor and manufac-
turer, 6, Forrth-street Cincinnati.

The Wife of Judge Daniels Burned
to Death.

Our reporter furnishes us with the brief
particulars of o most terrible accident
which occurred in this city on Saturday
night last, by which the estimable wife OF
Judge Daniel, of the Supreme Court of
the United States, was burnt to death.
1t appears that the Judge and Mrs. Dan
iel had just returned from party to his
residence in Franklin row, and he had
gone to his library, whilst Mrs. D. repair
ed to her sleeping room and commenced
disrobing preparatory to retiring for the
night. Being very nearsighted, she did
not perceive q candle placed upon the
hearth or the flames which communicated
to her clotl . until they completely envel-
oped her She then ran from her room
shrieking for assistance; but her motion
only added strength to the flames, and it
is supposed she also inhaled the fire. Be-
fore effectual assistance could be rendered,
the unfortunate lady was burnt almost to
crisp and died after eight hours intense
suffering
Mrs Daniel was about tl'irty-fve years
old, and her terrible death has caused
profouna.regret among her large circle of
friends and the community at large. She
was the daugher of the late DR.. Harris,
of Philadelphia, formerly Chief of the
Bureau of Medicine and Surgery of the
Navy. She leaves two cildren, the young
est about eight months old Judge Dan
iel was slightly burnt in his efforts to ex-

HAMILTON, Ohio, Nov. 10, 1855.
DR.. RoBAcK--Dedr Sir: l have read in the
newspapers many accounts of cures effected by
your Scandavian Remedies, but consider my
own case at least as interesting and as marvel
Gus as any of them. So far as you are con-
cerned, one testimonial more or less is of little
consequence. Your fame is established, and
my statement cannot add to your celebrity.
But for the benefit of my fellow creatures, l
desire to make known the facts. When called
upon you, at the instance of dear friend, on
the 21st of March last, had been nine years a
sufferer from catarrh. The irritation of the
nerves and membrane of the head was so in
tense that sometimes it almost drove me crazy.
could not sleep, and was never free from un-
pleasant sensations. At various times five
different physicians had attended me- each one
treated me in his own way, but none of them
did me any good. l despaired of ever seeing
another we'll day, and when l called at your
consultation rooms, had very little hope of re-
lief. By your advise, l entered Immediately
upon a regular course of your Scandinavian
Blood Purifier and Blood Pills. l was encour-
aged by the cheerful, hopeful way in which
you spoke, and l resolved strictly to follow
your direction. In less than a week, all the
worst symptoms of my complaint began to
take milder form, and so continued to i'm
prove from week to week until, at the end of
three months, my head was entirely relieved
and every trace of the catarrh had left me.
Still, however, continued to take the rene
dies for nearly six weeks longer, because
found they were building up my strength and
fort.fying my constitution. Six months have
passed since the cure was finished, and have
had no sign of a relapse. should be glad to
see this letter, or the substance of it, in print,
for the guidance of others.
Yours, with heartfelt gratitude,
Mrs. AUGUSTUS COOCH.
