COMMON GROG-SHOP BITTEkS.

Empty Bitter bottles, of various styles, can be-
found around almost every dwelling aud cabin
throug bout the land. Their taste is pleasant and
are advertised to cure almost every disease while
the manufacturers know they possess no medical
properties whatever. They are so many disgu-
ses for exceedingly common beverages which do
not, nor cannot possibly cure any one.
Beware of these pleasant bitters in quart bot
ties they contain sting for your vitals, and he
who buys them carries a ''topers grog into his
house One man who knows nothing about med
icne, says his big bottles of common stuff will
cure chill and fever, rheumatism and consump-
ton; another, whose bottle is very fancy, cures
all Impurities of the blood, makes old men young
cast ont devils, restores sight to the blind, and
numerous other Miracles while yet another,
who presames every man drunkard, pr opposes
to cure colic, ingrowng nails yellow fever, hear
disease and loye-sick maidens! We know they
make no such cures, know the people at
large are deceived and swizdled and as we de-
sire to ventillate these common hunbugs, make
the following challenge to one and all

Mode of Preparation. -Buchu, in vacuo.
Juniper Berries, by distillatio |, to form a
fine gin. Cubebs extracted by displacement
with spirits obtained from Juniper Berries
very little sugar is used, and small proper
ton of spirit. 1t is more palatable than any
now in use.
Buchu, as prepared by Druggists, is of a
dark color. 1t is plant that emits its fra
GRANGE; the action of flame destroys this
(its active prineiple,) leaving dark and
gutinous decoction. Mine is the color of in
gradients. The Buchu in my preparation
predominates upon inspection, it will be
found not TO be a Tincture, as made in Phar-
macop@a, nor is it Syrup, and therefore can
be used in cases where fever or inflammation
exist. In this, you have the knowledge of
the ingredients and the mode of preparation.
Hoping that you will favor it with trial,
and that upon inspection it will meet with
your appreciation.

CLEANSING THE BLOOD

VENHE long and favorabv known Preparation
] of Drs. d. Fahrney Son, for Cleansing
the Blood, needs at this day no Recommendation
at our hands, its virtues having been established
by the thousands of cases where it has given re-
liet in the most difficult form Of Chronic Diseas-
es during the last sixty years. So highly, indeed,
is it esteemed, that the demand is constantly in
creasing, not only at home, but we are daily re-
ceiging applications for it from the most remote
sections OF the country-North, East, South and
West. To meet this demand, as well as to pre-
vent the public from being imposed upon, we
have concluded to put this
PR Z 2 A TION
in such form, that it may be within the reach
of everybody every where.
Other preparations, far inferior to the genuine
having been mistaken by some for our own, and
as matter of course. the old preparations of ID.
Fahrney Son, has been made to suffer some in
reputation. Therefore, to prevent this mistake,
as well as to meet the increasing demand men
toned above, we have concluded to send the
medicine ont in a
LIQUID FORM.
We will also, at the same time, put out our
preparation in the original package form for the
benefit of some of our old customers and others,
who may prefer it first prepared. Not recon-
mending it TO cure all diseases the humau body is
heir; but as Family Medicine, and for all dis
eases originating from impure Blood and disor-
dered Liver, it has no equal. And will cure the
following diseases:

Marriage Extraordinary.

The little village of Uniontown, in
the township of Woodbridge, county of
Middlesex, and State of New Jersey,
will hereafter be memorable in the an
mails of fame, for having furnished tile
most extraordinary double wedding of
ancient or modern times.
Mr.. Edwin Baldwin, the father, and
Mr.. VIM. Baldwin, the son, both liv-
ing and doing business together in the
city Of New York, We're the happy
bridegrOOms, and Mrs. Ann Randolph,
the mother, and Miss Mary Randolph,
the daughter, both living together in
the cosy home they have occupied for
many years, in the said village, were
the more than happy brides. The rela-
tions and friends of the happy parties
from the cities of New York, Phila-
delphia, Newark, Railway, and the
more adjacent places, like General
Jacllson's Cabinet, came together as a
unit" at the appointed hour of 10
o'clock q. M, on Thursday, the oath of
March, 1870, to witness this most novel
and interesting wedding. The perfect
adaptation Of the happy complies, the
universal appreciation of all parties,
and the brilliant day, all conspired to
make the occasion doubly joyful.
Such a ease, where the father and
son were married to the mother and
daughter, at the same time, in the same
room, by the same clergyman, we think,
is not on record a; if it is, we should like
TO hear from it.-R0b1C0y, ~ J., i'd

Way Susie Found it Hard to be GOOD.

Susie bright, active little girl,
and made nc4self many friends by her
cheerful, pleasaRt ways; but she had
one very serious faulay-she did not gov
ern her temper.
One morning Susie w early,
and running to her mamnrA NOON,
put up her lips for kiss, and ss J:
Mamma, Pm going to be good all
day; I'm not going to be naughty once,
even if brother Dick does tease me-"
At breakfast and prayers Susie be-
mother was busy, she amused lit
tie Eddie, picked up his playthings,
sang for him, and took such good care
of him, that when her mother looked
in at the door, she said
Susie Is my little help to-day
By and by Susie looked out at the
window and saw Dick in the garden,
chasing q butterfly. It looked so plea
SAINT in the sunshine that Susie began
to wish man1una a;Would come and take
Eddis was busy. Eddie
grew 4etfuI aflo-S6sie grew impatient,
until at last she shook the little fellow
until ne screamed with fright. Her
mother came, and finding her SO an
CRY, told her to go to her room alone
for a little while. Susie walked away
without speaking, her cheeks flushed,
and naughty thoughts in her heart
The little girl was very unhappy, and,
after standing idly about for some time,
she took her doll from its crib, and go
ing to little table, began dressing it.
When she grew tired of this, she turn
ed over the leaves of some picture
books. She was still at the table when
the door opened softly and Dick glided
in, and, coming up behind his sister,
put small piece of ice upon her bare
neck. Susie screamed, and turned to
her brother with angry eyes and hand
raised TO strike. As she turned, she
upset chair, and this overturned the
| table on which lay her books and her
beautiful doll. The doll, her last birth
day present, was broken and ruined
When dick saw the mischief he had
caused, he was very sorry, for he real
~ loved his sister. Susie was very an
cry, and said she would never love
Dick any more.
When Eddie was asleep, and Susie )
mother came up to her little daughter }
room, she found her sitting with the
| broken doll in her lap, and the tears
| still falling from her eyes. When Su-
I sic saw her mother, she Sobbed out:
| 90 mamma! wanted to be good
all day, and everything has gone
wrong"
Taking the little girl in her arms, her
! mamma asked, - Did you remember
to ask God this morning to help you TO
be g0Od?"
'FNt., mamma, forgot that" Susie
answered.
"Then that is just the reason you
have failed" her mother said ave
can only be good by looking 10 Jesus
for help"
Susie asked her mother TO ask God,
then to forgive her for being 80 naugh.
ty, and to help her to be good. When
they rose from their knees, Susie said
