DIR. j. w. SYKEs-Dear Sir: l feel II
my duty to make a Just acknowledgment
to you of the benefit i received of Your
treatment from April to September, 1869
When resorted TO you had but little
hope of recovery, as i had hemorrhage
of the lungs almost daily during %
months previous, together with an afIcc-
ton OF the heart, so that could not lie on
my left side during Il period of fifteen
years: The cough, pain, and constant op-
preston of the breast made life u burden.
After taking your treatment for three
months, felt decided Improvement; the
hemorrhnge of the lungs had ceased alto
gether; the oppression of the breast,
cough, &c., were much better, with de-
eided Improvement of my general health I;
so that commenced the second course OF
three months treatment with more hone
Aiter continuing the treatment (altogether
hve monts), felt myself entirely well,
could lie on eiiher side and breathe freely.
Yet could hardly believe the cure per-
manent one. But now, fifteen months
have passed, and no recurrence of hcmor--
rhages, or cough, and have regained NV
iOrIner weight so that now feel thankful
TO God and TO you for your invaluable
treatment in my case, and shall not cease
TO recommend others similarly afflicted to
your treatment. Yours respectfully,

Mons. Berg and the Dog.

L
In New York the protection given to
the man and brother of saddle colored
complexion does not come up to the
standard of the civil rights bill. The
negro is given more power, politically
and socially, here than at the North.
Some weeks since New York man who
kept an ice cream establishment started
fresh cider branch to his house. In
order to convince the public that the
cider was fresh as represented he
had a portable cider press put up in
his establishment, from which the
juice of the apple flowed all day long.
1t was worked by treadle, and the en-
terprising proprietor adapted it to dog
power An endless platform was fixed
up similar to those horse treading power
saw mills, and large dog worked away
daily MASKING apples and squeezing out
cider for the temperance people of
Gotham and Brooklyn, as well as the
Plymouth church congregation. But
there is a humane demon in New York
by the name of Monsieur Berg who is
monomaniac on the subject of cruelty
to animals; that is, quadrupeds, insects,
etc. He is at the head and tail Of the
Association for the Prevention of Cru
city to Animals, and his sensitive soul
bleeds when the sportsmen of New York
shoot pigeons, have races, dog fight, a
chicken tourney or anything of that
character. The dog that made the cider
attracted the lunstic's attention, and at
once he had the proprietor arrested on
the charge of cruelty to animals. The
man was fined, and dog power had to be
dispensed with, it not having been
proven clearly that the dog was worked
under the eight hour system, had three
meals day furnished by the fashion
able restaurant of the city and was paid
sufficient wages for its labor. Net
knowing the sex of the dog We use
the pronoun its" by way of dessrip
tive designation. The proprietor had
his motor change from dog power to
negro power, and now employs a little
darby to walk the tread-mill during the
day and furnish Berg and other lunaties
sweet cider. Berg forgets that negro !
is also an animal and should come I'M
der the law relating to cruelty to mi
mails, etc, but Berg and other members |
Of the lunatic socisty care more for dogs, /
horses, pigeons, etc, than they do for
the African brother who has been made
a ward of thenstion, and around whom
the Northepa Radicals seek to fling the
agis of "eivil rights" which gives all !
the legal and social rights to the black
man. sad presents the white man with
all tie wrongs"

The New Orleans papers speak Of the
health of that city as being almost UNI
precedentedly good at this season of the
year. The Picayune says: 1--WE have
none of those malarial disorders usual
IN the summer months, no dangue,
breakbone, bilious or other fevers of that
family The public health has continued

of the season, we are justified in saying
there is no danger of change"
EThe fire department tried a new inven-
ton on Madison street last Saturday
afternoon. 1t was a patent valve, the
invention of Baltimore fireman. The
pipeman can shut off the water at will
and the returned pressure drives the
water back through valve near the
engine into the cistern. The nozzle can
be carried through building and turned
loose at will, thereby saving property
from damage by water. The depart
ment regards the invention as a success
In Saturdays LEDGER we stated that
the editor of the Southern Catholic was
of opinion that "the present common
school system either teaches heresy or
infdelity, and he claims the right to
have religion without education, and no
education unless religion is with it. "
The paragraph should read: Religion
Nth education, and no education unless
religion with it." We do not care to
discuss the full bearing of this PROPOSE
ton with reference to our splendid pub.
lie school system, which, in our opinion,
is credit to the State.
At the monthly meeting of the Gen
eral Council, to be held next Wednes
day, the question as to the Captain of
the No. A engine will come up. The
Chief Of the Fire Department and about
twenty Councilmen and Aldermen favor
the appointment of Mcmahon, the first
pipeman, who Of right goes into Office by
promotion, but the Mayor has some pet
to put in just because the papers and
General Council favor the best man.
The Mayor likes to take bout at the
Council and the newspapers occasion
ally, but he has invariably come out Of
the conflict with sore head.

and rescued from life Of toll, but the
negro took its place. Berg is believer
in the doctrines Of Pythagoras, that
thNgouls of men are often transferred
into he bodies of beasts" and this is
clearly lroven when we see the affinity

springing up between Berg and the dog.

some Congressional isnatic to offer

Cowhiding by q Female.


Last Saturday evening when the shades
Of night were falling fact Main street
clothing man sat in front Of his store at
the edge Of the pavement for the pur-
pose Of inhaling the fresh breezes Of
heaven and cooling off after his daily
labor. He was talking to a lady at the
time, but about that time two elegantly
dressed damsels walked over from Court
Square and stopped in front Of the
clothing man. After few pleasant
words had passed one of the girls said,
You are the son - | have been look
ing for, and drew from beneath her
dress rawhide and struck him across
the face half dozen times ere he could
arise from his seat. He then threw up
one hand to shield his face, when the
other woman caught his hand and held
it down while her companion laid on
Macduff." In a few minutes crowd
gathered and the girls hoped away,
apparently satisfied with the punish
ment they had inflicted on the man, who
had offended them in some manner not
known to the public The clothing man
instead of cooling OF, as he had de-
sired, was warmed up" considerably
and retired homeward sadder if not a
wiser man.
