From Rev. ]. Newton Brown, D. D.. editor Of
the Encyclopedia of Religious knowledge and
Christian Chronicle, Philadelphia:
Although not disposed to favor or recommend
Patent Medicines in general, through distrust OF
their ingredients and effects yet know of no suf-
fcient reasons why man may not testify to the
benefit he believes himself to have received from
any simple preparation, in the hope that he may
thus contribute to the benefit of others.
| do this the more readily in regard to Hoof-
lands German Bitters, prepared by DR.. G. VI.
Sackson, of this city, because was prejudiced
against them for many years. under the impress
sion that they were chiefly an alcoholic mixture.
/ am indebted H. 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 degree of bod
lily and mental vigOr which 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.

From Rev. W. D. Seigfred, Pastor Of Twelfth
Baptist Church, Philad alpha:
Gentlemen;-I have recently been labor
ngunder the distressing effects OfindigestiOn ae-
companied by prostitution of the nervous sys-
TEN. Numerous remedies were commended by
friends and some of them tested, out without re-
lief. Your Hollands German Bitters were re
commended by persons who had tried them, and
whose favorable mention of these bltters induced
me to try them. | must confess that had an aver
sion to Patent Medicines from the " thousand and
one" quack Bitters whose only aim seem to
be to palm off Sweetened and drugged liquor upon
the community in a sly way. and the tendency of
which, fear, is to make many confirmed drunk
ard. Upon learning that yours was really ned
icnal preparation | took IL with happy effect. Its
action, not only upon the stomach, but upon the
nervous system, was prompt and gratifying. l
feel that | have derived great and permanent
benefit from the use of few bottles. Very res

The London Times "hits the nail
ON the head" in the following ex-
tract.
Why cannot the negro be declared
n citizen, and invested with all the
rights of a man? The real answer
is that he is not citizen, and cannot
be made citizen by a proclamation
or law. We have unfortunately
had little experience of our own in
this matter. We gave the jamaica
negro, in common with his white
master, civil equality and the right
Of self-govcrnment, and we see how
il has ended. All the negro instincts
and habits 20 in the other direction.
iie is careless, crcdulOus, and depen-
dent; easily excited, easily fright
encd; always the ready victim of the
stronger will. lie is material for the
hands of anybody who wishes to
make use OF him. Invested with
full political rights, the race must bc
a magazine Of mischief. In Jamaica,
il appears that the negroes would inn
bibe at a days notice any absurd
delusion rs to the authority and
wishes Of the British Queen, of th,
commissioners or any body else; but
what they were always looking foI
was something to be given them, ol
something to be done for them, OF
some law to make them all rich
happy land owners, and tax-frce for
ever. Such men are not citizens, cal
them so as we will. President John
son, in his message, takes into ac
count the education and circum
stances, rs well as the race. Thcs

emerged from slavery, and be notice

SUCCESSFUL SEcEssIox.-It seems
that radical logic has decided that
successful secession is right. West
ern Virginia Is proof in point.
That seeding portion Of the Old Do
minion Is not only recognized, but Is
allowed to have Senators and Repre-
sentatives in Congress. Now il is
certain that II a State has no right
to withdraw from the Union, a coun-
~ has less right to withdraw from q
State. II was treason for the South
ern States 10 secede and form q Con-
federacy, but II is all right for certain
counties TO secede and form a State.
As there Il West Virginia, Tcnnes-
see Is to have an Fast Tennessee. 50
you see the distinction without q die
ference. In the early history ol
North Carolina certain disaiiceted
and ambitious parties endeavorcd 70
establish a State Of Frankland out d
the Western portion Of the Old
North State, bnl The reasonable cfIor
was al once defeated and il was no

that anybody conceived that such
thing would be tolerated by eithe
State or Federal authority.
