Cooper's Ethereal Oil,

A speedy and radical cure Tor Deafness, Pains,
Noises, and Discharges from the Ears. This cell
ebrated remedy has been in use about ten years,
and hundreds afflicted with deafness, deemed in

permanently restored. 1t is a compound of four
different oils, one of which is obtained from a GER
tain kind Of walnut. 1t dissolves the Hard Wax
in the ear supplies it where it is deficient, ex-
cites to action the torpid auditory nerves. and
seldom fails to effect a perfect cure when the Ear

We are indebted to a Cincinnati cor
respondent for this anecdote Of Captain
Birch who is one of the most popular
Western steamboat men, a general favor
lite with the travelling public and who can
both practice and appreciate a good joke.
Passing near the pantry of his boat,
he heard one of the cabin-boys INDUCING
quite freely in animadversion on the Off
GERS and crew. Captain Birch turned a
Uery Severe countenance upon him and
said, Young man, hereafter when you
have anything to say about any one on
the boat, please except the Captain !"
"A few days after, the Captain hap
pening to be on deck, the same cabin-boy
carried past him a dish prepared for the
table, when a pet hog, running between
the boys extremities, completely upset
him, ettectually disbursing the prepared
food. Picking himself up with a most
ruetul countenance, the boy commenced
berating the hog. You are the misera-
blest hog | ever %seen," when catching a
view of the odd man," and remember
ing his injunction, he added, Except the
Captain"
THAT boy has had a secure berth on
Captain Birch's boat ever since"

PARLIAMENTARY TACTICs.-During a
session of the legislature Of North Carroll
ma. the dominant party had determined to
pass some resolutions of a party cbarac-
ter on a certain day. The minority were
equally determined that it should not be
done. A noisy night session was the
consequence. All sorts of parliamentary
tactics were employed by the minority to
stave off the question. 1t was about mid
night when Green Mitchell, a member of
the lower House. an eminent lawyer, a
pure gentleman and large-hearted philan-
thropist, obtained the floor. He lifted up
his voice to a high key, and said, pausing
after every word Mr., Speaker-the

to bring him a pitcher Of water and three
large spermacetic candles. He should
probably want them all before he was done
though he should only use one at u time"
&c. The consequence was that the ma
jority consented to adjourn, and the reso-
lutions were passed on u subsequent day.

DR.. j. HOSTETTER'S
Celebrated STOMACH BITTERS.

But that numerous class who devote them
selves to literary and other sedentary pursuits,
and in consequence of a want of physical exer-
else, become the victims of languor and debil-
ity, without nerve or appetite, have hitherto
sought in vain for some invigorating, life-giving
medicine, whose effects upon the system shall
be both speedy and permanent. Physicians Of
eminence, and profoundly acquainted with the
requirements of the human frame, commend
HOSTETTER'S BTTTERS as the safest and
swiftest stimulant to the recuperative energies
of the system yet discovered. 1t restores the
appetite, gives fresh vigor to the digestive
organs, sends the blood through the veins with
a more lively current, corrects a tendency to
depression of spirits, and fits a man for the
transaction of pushes with a cheerful heart
and an active mind. Unlike other medicines
which have been devised for the same object,
the BITTERS do not act spasmodically,
or with a temporary power the influence Of
the remedy is lasting. And if a patient will
but give some attention to securing proper
exercise, after the relief has been afforded, he
need fear no return of the affection. The
debility natural to the encroachments of years
upon the bodily frame is also alleviated by
this great strengthening medicine, thus enabling
the aged to pass their declining days in physical
ease; whereas they are now suffering from ex-
IRENE weakness and nervousness. To this ven
cradle class of people, HOSTETTER'S
BITTERS may be commended as invalu-
able. The proprietors of this invigorator have,
in addition, a deep qualification in assuring
NURSING MOTHERS that they will find
the the best and safest Of
restoratives. Very few medicines are sane
toned by physicians as proper to be admins
tered during the period of nursing; and this
has obtained an universal preference.
Rs- Those who desire to purchase this great remedy for
Dyspepsia and Debility should remember the precise
title, HOSTETTER'S CELEBRATED
STOMACH BITTERS. 1t is put up in quart
bottles, with the name, DIR. ]. H0STETTER'S
