A Change without Alterations

Most Of the cities 0f our Union have pet names
titles OF endearment which are almost we'll known
as their proper titles Thus we have the Garden
City, the Hub the Crescent and the Twin. One
among our larger capitals has RRme which II
merely translation OF its own into more famliai
and better understood language. We mean Phia
dephia, the City OF Brothery Love. 1t is city or
which an American may well be proud, for here the
Declaration OF Independence was signed, aud the
heart OF every patriot swells with a nober emotioi
as he looks upon the bell which psaled forth witt
joy at a nations deveran0e. The phanthropis
feels his heart throb with pleasure he views she
noble institutions which a magnificent charity has
erected in that favored spot relieve the distress OF
humanity. The friend of science rejoices to see the
city Of the great American printer and phllOsOphe
abounding in institutes for science and nurseries

their professional training The young oan intend
ing to adopt the Bar as his occupation seeks hei
classic groves. The architect finds her streets
squares, her solemn temples and gorgeous palaces,
6t examples for his study and imitation. The mer-
chant from other cities looks with wonder upon the
commercial facilities of Philadelphia, her douol
port her mineral treasures poured into her lap from
the exhaustess resources of the Commonwealth
and the manufacturing energies whnhp5ss JiIe
wheels Of s,eSS5ssy motion and send the products
of her artisans and the result Of the energies of he!
capitalists to the farthest regions of the West ant
all points Of the compass. From Philadelphia as
u
eases OF humanity flow out the grand remedies
which have stood the test of time, aud are known
and valued wherever mankind is liable to the ills Of
flesh or the accidents of climate. Why 1t is know
not but probably from her magnificent central posi-
ton OF our 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.
Second to none take for instance, those well-known
medicines, the Pine Tree Tar Cordial and Dyspepsia
Pills. The results OF long experience and the subject
OF many papers before the Philosophical Society OF
Great Britain, it left to America to see their
virtues fully tested and to Philadelphia to be-
come the great centre from which they ira
versed half the world. Originally introduced by L.
Q. C. WISHART, 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
complant-chronic Indigestion or dyspepsia-to-
gether with his fortune, fell into good hands, and
the worthy sons carry their manufacture and dis
tribution. HENRY X. WISHART, the principal
manager, is recognized by the profession pro-
missing man, though scarcely thirty years old, pos
sessed of the energy which is requisite in his call
Ing and which is so peculiarly characteristic of the
Philadelphans. He, well knowing that theynhaye
something the world wants and the people will
have, is extending the fame and knowledge OF his
fathers bequest through the length and breadth of
the land by an extensive system OF newspaper
advertising; and the village must be remote, the
drug store extremely rare, which is not supplied
with stock of the Tar Cordial and Dyspepsia Pills,
two preparations which, at the present day, stand
foremost in the ranks OF patent medicines, and
which the sheet-anchor OF health when once
that kitchen of the body, the human stomach gives
way under the distressing symptoms of confirmed
indigestion. Young and enterprisng, future lies
before the WISHARTS Of which any man might be
proud, and which they will, we predict, grasp and
use with prudence and success. trade immense
to contemplate lies in the articles and the men,
