A Change without Alteration.

Most of the cities Of our Union have pet names
titles OF endearment which almost well known
ss their proper titles Thus we have the Garden
City, the Hub, the Crescent and the Twin. One
amoDg our larger capitals has a name which is
merely translation OF its own into more familiar
and better understood language. We mean Phils
delphia, the City Of Brothery Love. 1t is city or
which an American may wei be proud, for here the
Declaration Of Independence was signed, and the
heart Of every patriot swells with nobler emotion
as he looks upon the bell which psaled forth with
JOY at nations deliverance. The philanthropist
feels his heart throb with pleasure he views The
noble institutions which a magnificent charity has
erected in that favored spot to relieve the distress Of
humanity. The friend OF science reoices to sec the
city OF the great American printer and philosopher
aboupdng In Institutes for science and nurseries of
AIT, Medical students resort to Philadelphia for
their professional training. The young man intend
ing to adopt the Bar as his occupation seeks her
classic groves The architect finds IN her streets
squares, her solemn temples and gorgeous palaces,
nt examples for his st1dy and imitation The mer-
chant from other cities looks with wonder upon the
commercial facilities OF Philadelphia, her double
port mineral treasures poured into her lap from
the exhaustless resources OF the Common wealth,
and the manufacturing energies which put the
wheels Of industry in motion and send the products
Of her artisans and the result OF the energies of her
capitalists to the arthest regions OF the West and
all points Of the compass From Philadelphia as
from modern Bethesda a healing pool for the dis
eases Of humanity fow ont the grand remedies
which have stood the test Of time, and are known
and valued wherever mankind is liable to the ills OF
flesh or the accidents OF climate. Why it is we know
not, but probably from her magnificent central posi-
ton OF country, those members of the healing art
who furnish the whole world with remedies for every
complaint seem to have made their headquarters in
the City Of Brotherly Love.
We could enumerate, had we space and time a
large number Of houses engaged in this noble work

medicines, the Pine Tree TarCordal and Dyspepsia
Pills. The results OF long experience and the subject
OF many papers before the Philosophical Society OF
Great Britain, it was left to America to see their
virtues fully tested, and TO Philadelphia to be-
come the great centre from which they tra-
versed half the world Originally introduced by L.
Q. c. WlSHART, they rapidly became popular and
brought fame and fortune to their proprietor who
some twelve months ago died, full of years and
honols respected and regretted by all who knew
him. These medicines for that peculiarly American

Phladephians. He, well knowing that they:have
something the world wants and the people will

fathers .euuest through the length and breadth Of
the land by an extensive system of newspaper

two preparations which, at the present day, stand
foremost in the ranks OF patent medicines, and
which are the sheet-anchor OF health when once

way under the distressing symptoms OF confirmed
