June %, 1859.

DEAR FRIEND:-You will be surprised
to receive a letter from a convicted felon.
But so it is. This day a Missouri jury
b Drought in a verdict, and on their oaths
declare that [ was in Missouri, myself or
by an agent, and stole or abducted a man
called '.Dick, " of the value of 81, 500
Now, my friend, you know me to be a
man Of truth, ard l declare this moment,
with my mind eye fixed on an infinite
God, that every word is false. l was
never in Missouri but two days in my life,
~(previous to being kidnapped and brought
here, } and that was when L came through
St. Louis in July, 1854, to settle in Kan
sas; and never have | spoken myself, or
as agent, to any person in Missouri, until
| was kidnapped on the 25th of January
last, and lodged in this prison. They
have stolen my wagon and a load of pro-
visions, &c. l have paid one Missouri
attorney 5000, although the Legislature
of my State appropriated 81 900 to de-
fend me. Of this l nave received nothing.
My land, which is a half a mile from
Lawrence, with all my Improvements, is
likely to be lost, as l have not pre-empted
it. The contest about the claim has been
decided in my favor since l was kid
mapped. The land sales take place In
July, and rs / am confined in a felon's
cell, and my personal presence in the
Land Office is indispensable, the whole
may be lost. After all this suffering,
therefore, to provide for my children, this
lovely home is likely to be taken from us,
1 am compelled to feel as a parent, buI
leave my family in the hands of God, anC
you and other friends in Rochester. The
farm contains 100 acres, and if L could
get a land warrant TO pre-empt it and give
a mortgage to secure the lender, it coulc
be saved.
The Supreme Court, to which my case
is appealed, sits in Jefferson City in July
All the means l could raise have been paiC
for witnes eS' fare. DC, on the two trials
| have suffered and sacrificed much 70
principle during the last five years, anC
it seems pretty hard TO be rewarded will
q felon's fate. Yours, &c.

DIR. ROBACK AND HIS REMEDIEs.-The success which
has attended the practice of this distinguished Swe-
dish ph MUSICIAN, goes far to confirm the theory that the
source of all Diseases is ia the blood. His famous
scandinavian Remedies operate directly upon
the elements of that fluid, neutralizing all corrupt
and morbid matter in the circulation, and bringing
back health to every organ, by purifying the stream
which sustains and n%ourishes the whole system.-
Certain it is that his Blood Purifier and Blood Pills
have worked wonders in nervous complaints, bron-
chitis, rheumatism, cough, catarrh, dyspepsia, gene
raj debility, hypochendriasis, epilepsy, eruptions,
~scrofula, and many other painful and dangerous NAL
aides. Hence their great popularity. We arc In
formed that Sthe correspondence of DIR. liobaek
amounts on an average to $50 letters per day, of
which 100 are requests for advice and orders for his
celebrated remedies. See Advertisement.

HoLLowAY's PI LLs.-Swimming of the head, nau-
sea distaste for food, and II feeling of lassitudc and
exhaustion, are i%nfallible indications of a torpid stom-
ach and IL general sluggishness of the secrctivc or
gans and the circulation. But it is not therefore
necessary to send for Il doctor. A course of Hollow

Here man feels, indeed, his insignifcance,
and seems TO stand in the visible presence
Of the great l AM.
o, thou great Niagara! For how many
ages thou hadst Numbered thy angry
waters into this yawniug gulf, before the
red man stood upon thy banks, we know
not. No wonder he heard in thee the
voice OF the Great Spirit. When ages
upon ages more shall rave rolled away,
and generation after generation of men
shall have passed to their long home, still
thou wilt roll, and roar, and thunaer down
thy angry waters as now. Nought but
the voice Of Him who made thee can stay
thy headlong waters, or bid thy roaring
cease. But why attempt to write? Here
we sit for hours alone; and as the dashing
spray is around us, we gaze, and wonder,
and we'll nigh adore; and then a terrible
sense of our nothingness comes over us,
and we throw down our pencil, and only
feel like exclaiming: Great and glorious
are thy works, Lord, God Almighty"
Amid these stupendous works of the
Great Architect we leave our readers for
the present. IL. f. NJ.
