lands German Bitters, prepared by DIR. e.. M.
Sackson, of this city, because l was prejudiced
against them for many years, under the impress
sion that they were chiefly an alcoholic mixture.
| am indebted to my friend, Robert Shoemaker.
Esq, for the removal of this prejudice by proper
tests and for encouragement to try them when suf-
fering from great and long continued debility.
The use of three bottles Of these Bitters at the
beginning Of the present year. was followed by
evident relief and restoratian to a degree Of bod
lily and mental vigor which l had not felt for six
months before and had almost despaired Of re-
gaining. therefore thank God any my friend for
directing me to the use Of them.

ExTRAvAGANcE IN DREss.-They have so many
Flora MoFlimseys'' in Paris. at present that
marriage is becoming an uncertainty. Few young
men feel themselves justified in entering the con-
nubial state on account of the fearful extrava-
gance Of the Partisan bellies. In fact the mas
culines are all going into bachelerhood, because
they dread wooing and wedding the fashionable
ladies Of the French capital They argue that
wives toe expensive, and that to possess them
requires the possession of large fortunes to be en-
abled to crafty their passions for nery of all de-
scriptions Costly silks. laces. feathers and jew
els cannot be procured except through pockets
well filed with Napoleons. and men with moder-
ate incomes are compelled TO forego the matrimo-
NAL felicitiss of married life The consequence OF
this condition is telling with bad effect upon
the morals Of the community. The cafes and
drinking establishm sEts are better patronized
than ever before while the gambling houses are
gathering in the money which otherwise would
be spent in the support Of the wife and family.
This evil is attracting considerable attention and
several Of the Paris journals and the correspond
ents Of English papers have commented on the
subject in very strong language. The idea Of pass
ing sumptuary laws has been suggested but a
more efeclual mode of arresting the extravaganza
Of the women. would be for every to frown
upon it, and utter his protest against it. So long
as men wink at it, and natter the female sex by
admiring the expensive dresses. and the costly
diamonds which theywear. 80 long will they spend
their money to gain the applause Of their foolish
admirers. The remedy lies in the hands Of the
men. and they should avail themselves Of its use.
not only in Paris and London, but also in this
country, where the passion for extravaganza in
dress is not far behind that Of the French and
English ladies.

A WARNING TO HoUsEKEEPERs AND POLICE
There seems 10 be no Limitation to the inventive
ness Of those who are determined on the eonsun-
nation Of villiany, especially in the way Of rob
berries. Itdoes seem that a superhrman intuition
guides them in their work Of crime. and guaran-
tees them In the face Of the most udieious
caution and Eatchfulness
The above IS predicated upon some observs-
tons made by an exchange. of a neighborins city,
in reference to a new system Of burglary being
practeed in the central portion Of their city which
is of no little Importance to the housekeepers and
policemen Of this city.
The period chosen for the robberies in question
is usually between the hours of71l and o'clock
in the evening. The house is entered by false
latch-keys, the upper rooms visited and bureaus.
closets and Wardrobes rifed, while the family are
occupied in the drawing-room. or the dodgers
are out visiting. The following is the modus op-
eraHdi and exhibits forethought and expertness
The premises are first visited on some pretence.
such as desire o. review the house with view
10 taking apartments, or il il be strictly private
dwelling 70 see about arranging some gas fixtures.
cleaning the pictures etc. as IL sent by Tiffany,
hnoedler. or some other authorized person 0c-
caslonally the visit Is made by female accomp-
lice, who inquiries for pretended resident asks
Tor WORK, OF soiicits temporary shelter from the
rain. BY this means the local arrangements are
learned, and soon after the thief operates. Tie
noticeable feature Of these robberies is that gene
rally only certain articles are selected, such as
Jeweiry fine clothing. and, Of eouse. money"
The same paper in abiding to the opening Of
bureaus. etc. says that jimmy" seems to be the
instrument employed to open drawers. but in one
case the lock Of closet door was completely cut
across; in another. entrance was effected throu gh
the coal hole; but usually il is. as was just OBJ
served, by false keys, and while the occupants are
absent from the chambers. that these fastidious
thieves make their entrances. exits and depreda-
tons. Too much caution cannot be given in the
observation Of those who attempt to become so
familiar with our dwellings under trivial pre-
lenses
