PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Feb. rs, 1867.
II. T. HELxBoLD, Druggist:
DEAR ST I'll have been q sufferer, for up
ward OF twenty years, with gravel, bladder,
aud kidney sffections, during which time
have used various medicinal preparations,
and been under the treatment of the most
eminent Physicians, experiencing but little
relief.
Having seen your preparations extensively
advertised, l consulted with my family phys
ician in regard to using your Extract Buchu.
did this because l had used all kinds of
advertised remedies, and had found them
worthless, and, some quite injurious in fact,
l despaired of ever getting well, and determ-
ined to use no remedies hereafter unless ]
knew of the ingredients. 1t was this that
prompted me to use your remedy. As you
cubebs, and juniper berries, it occurred to me
and my ply ysician as an excellent combina-
ton. and, vi tn his advice, after an examina-
tion of the article, and consulting again with
the druggist, concluded to try it. l COM
menced its use about eight months ago, at
which time was confined to my room. From
the first bottle was astonished and gratified
at the beneficial effect, and after using it three
weeks, was able to walk out. I felt much like
writing you full statement of my case at
that time, but thought my improvement
might only he temporary, and therefore con-
perfect cure, knowing then it would be of
greater value to ycu, and more satisfactory
to me.
lam now able to report that cure is effec-
ted after using the remedy for FIVE months.
have not u sed any now for three mouths,
and feel as Well in all respects as / ever did.
Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleas-
ant taste and Odor, a nice tonic and invigora-
tor Of the system, do not mean to be with
out it whenever occasion may require its use

THE KIDNEYS.

The Kidneys are two in number, situated
at the upper part of the loin, surrounded by
fat, and consisting of three parts, viz the
Anterior, the Interior, and the Exterior.
The anterior absorbs. Interior consists of
tissues or veins, which serve as a deposit TOR
the urine and convey it to the exterior. The
exterior is conductor also, terminating in q
single tnbe, and called the Uterus. The ute
rus are connected with the bladder.
The bladder is composed of various cover
ings or tissues, divided into parts, viz: the
Upper. the Lower. the Nervous, and the Mu-
cous. The upper expels, the lower retains.
Many have q desire to urinate without the
ability; others urinate without the ability to
retain. This frequently occurs in children.
To cure these affections, We must bring in
to action the muscles, which are engaged in
their various functions. If they are neglect
ed, Gravel or Dropsy may ensue.
The reader must also be made aware, that
however slight may be the attack, it is sure to
affect the bodily health and mental powers,
as our flesh and blood are supported from
these sources.

The party which defeated Harry Clay

1t was thst very sheep-like following Mr..

for the murder of two little girls last
Friday, accumulates. Gallenby says he
was digging well near the scene Of the
outrage and murder on Thursday eve
ming, and on coming to the surface saw
two boys attempting to violate two girls,
but the boys ron off without accomplish
ing their purpose, Like all his stories,
this Is contradictory. Gallenby has been
identified by two Of the little girls whom
he attempted to outrage about six weeks
ago. The body of the eldest girl was ex-
amined yesterday by physicians and no
water found in the lungs or stomach. 1t

Fatal Sfabbfng-LOss OF p

New York, July Shorty after mid
night fire broke out in the old locomo-
tive works of Breze & Malen, corner Of
Warren and Morgan streets, Jersey City,
and within the space of an hour the
building was entirely consumed. 1t was
occupied as cooper shop by Bernard
McMahon, and as car factory by w.
HI. Cummings. The loss is estimated at
S55, 0OO-partly insured. The wheel
foundry of Washburn & Co. caught fire
several times, but was extinguished be-
fore it penetrated the building. The
Continental Screw Factory also caught
fire, but the fremen subdued the
flames. McKay's locomotive works mar
rowly escaped. The damage done to the
different buildings around the factory is
not more than $4,000, and the total loss
will probably amount to $4,000.

AFFAIR OF HONOR SETTLED,

We find the following card in the
Knoxville papers, which will explain
itself. The many friends of the gentle
men who had resorted to the code Of
honor will be gratifed that their per-
sonal difficulty was brought to close by
the interposition of friends, without a
resort to the last mode of arbitrament:
A CARD.-The undersigned, as mutual
friends of General Joseph A. Mabry and
Colonel John Baxter take great pleasure
in informing the public that the parties,
through our intervention and the aid of
their mutual friends, have agreed to abb
stain from all acts of personal violence
against each other, and to leave matters
of difference between them to public
opinion and the final determination of
the courts of law.
Their acquiescence in this arrangement
has been given in manner which, we
believe, is alike honorable to both par
ties. THos. W. HUMEs,

CARPET. BAGGINe CONGRESSMAN"

The Philadelphia Press and New York
Tribune both took exceptions to White
more's admission to the House. The
latter gave the following graphic picture
Of Radical liberality to its own adherents
and in reference to Whittemore getting
his seat, which it was thought probable no
would be able to do through conniving
politicians. 1t said Of the House:
II grew less decided in some similar
cases; finally it disgraced itself by per-
hitting Mr.. Butler, of Tennessee, to re-
main, albeit as guilty as Whittemore
himself; now, perhaps, it may think MIR.
Whittemore possessed of all the qualif-
cations required fsr its present standard.
1t is the sole Judge. But we can assure
the members that the time is at hand
when a larger body of voters WILDE called
to sit in Judgment. Thus far tho Demo
Gratis have promptly spurned and cast
out every member of their party found
guilty Of this cadetship infamy. We as
sumed great virtue at the outset; then we
furnished able counsel for the congress
sional cadet merchants; next we excused
one because he had been an unusually
active Republican, and after that the
whole business broke down. We tell you,
gentlemen, that we have had fully as
much of this sort of thing as we can stand.
We utterly and vehemently protest
against assuming any more party re-
sponsibilities in behalf of the carpet
bag Congressman.
The House adopted the Tribune idea,
and rejected Whittemore, who ia said to
have damaging revelations to make of
members whose sage counsels he had fol-
lowed The Press and Tribune both
seem to have better opinions of the Dem
ocrats than Of their own members.

DELAWARE.

The New York Tribune is not entirely
sanguine of carrying Delaware, notwith-
standing the Radicals will have almost
the entire negro vote, on which great
reliance has been reposed for success. 1t
will be seen from the following extract
that a close contest is anticipated, if
preparations are not being made for ex-
planning the causes of defeat;
Our party are not sanguine, however,
as to the result in Kent and Essex coun-
ties. The colored vote in Kent is about
500. The Democratic majority there
at the last election was 1858. This
should give us majority of nearly l42.
The colored vote in Sussex will be about
| $50 to offset the last Democratic major
ity of l.249. But there has been, unfor-
tunately, considerable feeling in regard
10 the nomination for Governor. The
more conservative Republicans think
the negroes have taken too great part
in the election of delegates to the con-
yention. This has been due, 1T seems,
more to fault of the whites than the
negroes themselves The former have
been absent from the polls at primary
elections, while the colored men have
been thoroughly organized in leagues,
and have nearly all voted They have
all voted, too, for delegates pledged to
the nomination of Mr.. Coursey. This has
caused great dissatisfaction among the
white Republicans.
We cannot take it upon ourselves at
this distance to assist them to mend the
matter, but can inform the Tribune that
the white and black Radicals in Della
ware have done pretty much as they have
done everywhere else-the former in
ducine the latter to boost them into Office,
and the latter delighted with the privi-
lege exercised for the first time. Mig
gers may learn some sense after time.

The last epileptic seizure of the Pope,
says the Rome correspondent of the Pail

supposed. 1t was followed by a violent
attack of diarrhea, which lasted twenty

Father in a very feeble condition. His
health, however, has since improved,
though it is not in a state to bear the
strain to which it is exposed.
