T. ————— Trovivestia, Escara rom Drowsixe.— We learn from the Pittsburg papers that afew days ago Rer. Benjamin Ison, of Wheeling, was in that city, on a visit to somefriends, ac- eumpanied by his wife and child. That af- ternoon himself, wife and chiid, avd the friend with whom he was sejourning visited an ac- « uaintance in Alleghany City, near the ac- «ueduct. After remaining until about 8 «’elock in the evening, they started on their return trip, by the same route they had come, namely, erosting the aoqueduct ‘Tt was very dark avd foggy. Just before they came to the woik for pedestrians, leading to the acque- duet, the company, preceded by Mr. [son cwith tbe babe in his arms) were in the act of eressing where there is a double lock in the canal, when, after passing over, as he supposed, instead of stepping on terra firma, plunged in- to the water, and went down over herd. His 8. D. wite ecreamed for help, supposing her husband | snd child were both drowned, but ina moment he came to the surface, clasping his babe to bis bosom with one hand. when his wife had the presence of mind to grasp him by the other ments until help came—though scarcely any time had elapsed until some came to the res- cue. she was scarcely able to retain her foot- hold. Seon the child was taken out, almost lifeless, when he supporied himself by climb- ing to a piece of iron in the wall until assisted from the pool.

Abont the last of the week I went tntoa aor store to get some medicine for my child end ™m There were several of the village physi- clans fn the store, and one of them seemed to take some interest in my case,.and, after asking me some questions, said he had been a dys) ic and had been greatly benefitted by the use of HOOF- LAND’S GERMAN BITTERS, prepared by |, and he insisted that I would try the Bitters. le also called the next day at my room, and in- sisted so much that I would try them that I asked him to me one bottle. He did it, and I com- taking it as directed, and I was more ben- efitted by it than all the water and medicine I had ever taken. After reaching home one of my neighbors came to me for a prescription and icine, (he a dys- peptic) and I gave him nearly all the Bitters] , whieh effected much good in his case. He has often called on me for more of the same kind of medicine, saying he was more benefitted by it than any other he had taken, but I have not been able to get any more for him or myself since ; will you, therefore, — ship me a dozen or more as soon as ile.

Dr. KENNEDY, ef Roxbury, Has discovered in one of Our COMMON PASTURE WEDs a remedy that cures EVERY KIND F HUMOR; FROM THE WORST SCROFULA DOWN TOA COM- MON PIMPLE. E HAS TRIED IT IN OVER ELEVEN hundred cases, and never failed except in two cases, (both thunder humor ) He has now in his ‘ion over two hundred certificates of its vir- ue, all within twenty miles of Boston. jag are warrented to cure a nursing sore mouth. One to three bottles will cure the worst kind of pimples on the face. ‘Two to three bottles will clear the system of biles. Twe bottles are warranted to cure the worst canker in the mouth and stomech. Three to five bottles are warranted to cure the Worst oase of Erysipelas. One to two bottles are warranted to cure all humor inthe eyes. Two bottles are warranted to cure running of the ears and blotches among the hatr. Four to six bottles are warranted to cure corrupt and running ulcers One bottle will cure scaly eruption of the skin. . Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the Worst case of ringworm. Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the most desperate case of rheimatism. Three to four bottles are warranted to cure the salt rheum. Five to eight bottles will cure the worst casesof scrofula. A benefit Is always experienced from the first bottle, and a perfect cure is warranted when the above quantity is taken. Reader, 1 peddled over a thousand bottles of this in the vicinity of Boston. I know the effect of itin everycase So sure as water will extin- guish fire se sure will this cure humor. I never sold a bottle of it but that sold another; after a trial it always speaks for itself. There are two things about this herb that appears to me surpris- ing; first thet it grows tn our pastures, in some laces qyite plentiful, and yet its value has never eon known until I discovered it in 1846—second, that it should cure all kinds of humor. In order to give some idea of the sudden rise and are popularity of the discovery, 1 wil! state that In April, 1863, 1 peddled it, and sold abou: 6 bottles per day—in April, 1851, I sold over 1,000 bottles per day of it. Some of the wholesale Druggists who have been in business t) and thi: irs, say that no- thing in ates of patent tedicines was ever like it. There {s a universal praise of it from all quarters.
