TUB IWHUI SOLDIERS.
It is impossible to conceive finer bodies
of men than those which daily arrive hi
Prussia to join their regiments. They lie
long to the first reserve, and all between
the ages of twenty-three and twenty-eight.
A very large number of them wear the
decoration they wore in the Austrian war.
and are all trained soldiers. As the trains
arrive they are met by a small party of
soldiers, ami the men are escorted to the
barracks of the corps to which they belong.
Here they are furnished with their uniforms,
kits, and arms, and are ready in halt an
hour to take their place in the ranks,
stalling can exceed the order and regulari
ty with which everything proceeds. To the
great credit o_f the'Prussian soldier, 1 can
state that since my arrival in the country
I have not seen a' single man in unilorm
the worse for liquor. Glory, indirectly,
makes a man more thirsty than does patri
otism. It is at a crisis like the present that
the full value of the Prussian military sys- j
fem is evident. The whole of the regi
ments belong to various localities, from
which they are exclusively raised. Each
regiment of the line has a regiment of re
serve composed exclusively ot the men
who have served their time in that regi- j
ment. Consequently when the reserve is.
as at present, called in, every man finds ;
himself among friends. By his side i> hi- ;
younger brother, around him are his neigh
bors." He is at home at once, and has. he- j
sides, every incentive to distinguish him-!
self in action, for he knows that his neigh-1
bors are looking on, and that every deed j
of (hiring will lie noted and told at home, j
It would be difficult to imagine any system
so calculated to make heroes. In regiments
raised like those of England, the local con
nection exists only in name, and a soldier
can scarcely hope that his deeds of bravery
in the field will become the common talk
of his neighbors and townspeople, and that
the girl he loves will look with pride upon
him as the acknowledged hero of the lo- j
eality. Of course, under our present vol
untary system this could not be carried out ;
in England: but when the time comes that
our long-talked-of reserve is to become a
reality, it is to be hoped that this important
feature of the Prussian system will not be
lost sight of.—Berlin correspondence of tin j

THE KIDNEYS.
The Kidney?* are two in number, situated at the
upper part of the loin, surrounded by fat. and con
sisting of three parts, viz: the Anterior, the Interi
or, and the Exterior.
The anterior absorbs. Interior consists of tissues
or veins, which serve as a deposit for the urine and
convey it to tin* exterior. The exterior is a con
ductor also, terminating in a single tube, and called
the Ureter. The ureters are connected with' the
bladder.
The bladder is composed of various coverings or
ti.Hsues. divided into parts, viz: the Upper, the
Lower, the Nervous, ami tin* Mucous. The upper
expels, the lower retains. Many have a desire to
urinate without the ability: others urinate without
the ability t* retain. This frequently occurs in
children.
To cure these affections, we must bring into ac
tion the muscles, which are engaged in their vari
ous functions. If they are neglected, Gravel or
Dropsy may ensue.
The reader must also be made aw are, that who
ever slight may be the attack, it is sure to affect the
bodily health and mental powers, as our flesh and
blood’ are supimrted from these source#.
Gut t, ok ItliEi matis.m.—l’ain occurring in the
loins is indicative of the above diseases. They oc
cur in persons disposed to acid stomach and chalky
concretions.
The Gravel.—The gravel ensues from neglect
or improper treatment of the kidneys. These or
gans being weak, the water is not expelled from the
bladder, but allowed toremaiu; it fioeome* fever- j
ish, and sediment forms. It is from this deposit !
that the stone is formed, and gravel ensues.
Dropst is a collection of water in some parts of •
the body, and bears diflerent names, according to j
the parts affected, viz when generally diffused I
over the body, it is called Anasarca; when of the !
abdomen, Ascites; when of the chest, Hydrotho*
rax.
Treatment.—Ilelrabold’s highly concentrated
compound Extract ltuehu is decidedly one of the
best remedies for diseases ot the bladder, kidneys,
gravel, dropsical swellings, rheumatism,and gouty
affections. Under this head we have arranged :
Dvsuria, or difficulty and pain in passing water.
Scanty Secretion, or small and frequent discharges i
of water; .strangury, or stopping of water; Ilcma- [
tuna, or bloody urine; Gout and Rheumatism of
the kidneys, without any change in quantitv, but i
increase in rotor, or dark water. It was always j
highly recommended by the late Dr. l’hysick, in i
these affections.
This medicine increases the power of digestion. :
and excites the absorbents into healthy exercise l>\
w hich the watery or calcareous imposition*, mid ail
unnatural enlargements, ns well as pain and in
flammation. are reduced, and it is taken by men. :
women, and children. Directions for use and diet
accompany.

II. T. Helmrolu, Druggi.-t-Dear MU: 1 have!
been a sufferer for upwards of twenty years with |
gravel, bladder and kidney affections, during w hich
time I have used various medicinal preparations, j
ami l>een under the treatment or the most eminent
physicians, experiencing but little relief.
Having seen your preparations extensively ad
vertised. I consulted my family physicun in regard
to using your Extract Buciiu.
I did this because I had used a’l kinds of adver
li>e‘l remedies and had found them worthless, and ;
>ome quite injurious; in fact, I despaired of ever
getting well, and determined to u*c no remedies
hereafter unless I knew of the ingredient*. It was
this that prompted me to use your remedy. As you
advertised that it was composed of buciiu, eubebs
and juniper berries, it occurred to me and my phys
ician as an excellent combination; and with his ad
vice, alter an examination of the article and con
sulting again w ith the druggist, I concluded to trv
it. I commenced to use it about eight mouths ago,
at which time I was routined to my room.
From the lirst bottle 1 was astonished at the ben
eficial effect, and alter using it three weeks was
able to w alk out. I felt much like writing to you a
lull statement of my case at the time, but thought
my improvement might only be temporary, and I
therefore concluded to defer, ami see it it would 1
effect a perfect cure, knowing then it would be ol I
greater value to you and more satisfactory to me. •
1 am now able to report that a cure is effected, i
alter using the remedy for live months.
1 have not used any now Tor three mouths, and
lee) as well in all respects as | ever did.
V our liuehu being devoid of any unpleasant taste
and odor, a nice tonic ami iuvigoratorof the system
I do not mean to he without it whenever occasion
may require its use in such affections.

ADDRESS
To the Nervous and Debilitated,
Whose sufferings have been protracted from bid
den causes, and,whose cases require prompt treat
ment to render existence desirable : It you are suf
fering. or have suffered, from Involuntary dis
charges. what effect does it produce upon your
general health? Do you feel weak, debilitated,
easily tired ? Does a little extra exertion produce
palpitation of the heart? Does your liver, or urin
ary organs, or your kidneys, freqm nllv get out of
order? Is your urine sometimes thick, milky or
flocky, or Is* it ropy on settling? nr does a thick
skutii rise to the top? Or is a sediment at the bot
tom alter it has stood awhile? Do you have spells
of short breathing or dyspepsia ? Art' your how els
constipated ? I>«» you have spells of fainting, or
rushes of blood to*the head ? Is your memory im
paired ? Is vour mind constantly dwelling on this
subject? Do you feel dull, listless, moping, tilt'd
of company, of life? Do von wish to la* left alone,
to get away from everybod\ ? Does any little thing
make you start or jump? Is your sleep broken or
•restless? Is the lustre of your eye as brilliant ?
The bloom on your cheek as bright? Do you en
joy yourself in* society as well? Do von pursue
your business with the same energy ? Ik» you feel
as much confidence in yourself ? Are your spirits
dull aud flagging, given to tits of melancholy ? If
so, do not lay it to your liver or dyspepsia. Have
you restless nights ? Your hack weak, your knees
weak, and have but little appetite, and you attrib
ute this to dyspepsia or liver-complaint ?
Now, reader, self-abuse, venereal diseases badly
cured, and sexual excesses, are all capable of pro
ducing a weakness of the generative organs, flic
organs ot generation, w hen in perfect health, make
th man. Did you ever think that those bold, de
fiant, energetic, persevering, successful business
men are always those whose generative organs are
in perfect health ? You never hear such men com
plain of iK'ing melancholy, of nervousness, of pal
pitation of the heart They are never afraid they
cannot succeed in business : they don’t become sail
and discouraged: they are always polite and pleas
ant in the company of ladies, and look you and j
them right in the face—none of vour downcast looks
or any other meanness about them. 1 do not mean
those*who keep the orgms inflated by running to ,
excess. These will not only ruin their constitutions,
but also those they do business with or for.
IIow many men. from badly cured diseases, from
the effects of self-abuse and excesses, hi ve brought
about that state of weakness in those organs that
has reduced the general system so much as to in
duce almost every other disease—idiocy, lunacy,
paralysis, spinal affections, suicide, and almost
every other form of disease which humanity is heir
to, ami the real r;iu*e of the trouble scarcely ever
suspected, and have doctored for all but the right
one.

TO PHYSICIANS.
New York. August 15th, 1808.
Allow me to call your attention to my PREPAR
ATION OF COMPOCND EXTRACT 151 CHI’.
The component parts are IH'CHU, Long Leaf,
CT15EBS, Jl’NIPER BERRIES.
Mode of Preparation.— Buchu, in vacuo.
Jnnipey Berries, by distillation, to form a fine gin.
Cubebs extracted by displacment with spirits ob
tained from Juniper Berries; very little sugar is
used, and a small proportion of spirit. It is more
palatable than any now in use.
Buchu, as prepared by Druggists, is of a dark
color. It is a plant that emits its fragrance; the
action of aflame destroys this (it* active principle),
leaving a dark and glutinous decoction. Mine is
the color ot ingredients. The Buchu in my prepar
ation predominates; the smallest quantity of the
oilier ingredients are added, to prevent fermenta
tion; upon inspection, it w ill be found not to be a
Tincture, as made in Phannacopuu, nor is it a
Syrup—and therefore can be used in eases where
fever or inflammation exists. In this, you have the
know ledge of the ingredients and the mode of pre
paration.
Hoping that you will favor it with a trial, and
that upon inspection it will meet w ith your appro
bation.
With u leeling of confidence,
I am, very respectfully,

IMPORTANT FACTS!
For the Public.
NEW EASTERN DEPOT
FOR THE WOULD RENOWNED
SEWING MACHINES,
Opposite the Post Office,
AUGUSTA, - - MAINE.
These Machines. l»y their simplicity, durability, and
tiie great range of work they execute,
have gained a reputation truly
enviable.
The famous success of the sinueb M vm i vn i k
1M. idMl'ANV has stimulated many other eotupan
ics 1*1 put forth all their energies and talent.-* to
produce a sewing machine thut would eclipse or
equal the >inger, but in every case I hey hnvcsig
nallv tailed, as is plainly shown by the fact, that of 1
nil the travelling agents—“runners or drummers"
—of oilier companies, none have the assurance to
« laim more than an equality with the >inger, even
upon any special class of work.
There are many sewing machine*, now offered to
the public, that have their good points, and arc of
much assistance to the housewife and the industri
ous seamstress. Parlies purchasing a -owing ma
chine of any sort, tiud the improvement on the old
fashioned way of sewing bv hand so great ami
pleasing, that thev are m.turallv. but erroneously,
led t<* Udieve that they have the'best, until the -pell
is broken by the introduction ol the Sinyrr «»/’ 1>70
into a neighbor's family, which i- sure, by the in
creased rapidity and ease with which it docs every
kind of plain or fancy -owing, to awaken them to a
positive, although ii mav U» silent aickuovv lodge
ment of the painful truth that there are very many
varieties of work that are easily executed upon the
singer, but that they tnu-t either be content to do
without, or exchange, at a heavy pecuniary sacri-;
lice, their curved needle i. frail-powered, tmrclia- |
lile-lensioned, low-speeded or ravel-stitched nia-]
chine for a Sinyrr \nr Family .1 rackin'
Various expedients arc resorted to. that me pun- j
lie eye may be turned IVnin the singer tor the l‘J" - ,
pn-c* of introducing inferior machines—viz. ' The
Itiiltnn-Ilnle Dndae.” “The < »\er--earning." ‘The
Double-1 ,ock-l\m»t->t itch.” “Klast it* Mil h.”“ I w lM
cd Loop.” “>elf-Adjusting Ten-ion- ' lling f inisli
and lSeautilnllv Ornamented." “Mraight Needle.
“Stitch- \like-nn-bnth->id.-.” “Medals from fair
\ i rlical Feed liar- ” Noi.-elc-- Kunning." “Mlcut
Feed.” ami la-t and wor-t of all. the low-priced— |
“Familv shuttle Machines.”
Manv of these point- are desirable, and the
singei*e\cel!s all in each individual speciality but
the 'greatest use made of these special points, i- by
tlic retail agent who parades them before the inex
perienced purchaserwith such fluent and earnest
-ly le. as to entirely divert attention from the really
important bearing- of the case. While other inno
cent local agent- ignorantly vepre-ent that the ma
chine -old by them is capable of doing every varie
ty of wank, et/ual to tin linger, and often do they
tints unconsciou-ly -w indie customer- w ho cannot
afford to squander their .-uo-tance upon gilded
follies aiid worthless rattle-traps.
Parties in que-t of a Sewing Machine should h*ok
about them and learn what machine i- nn*-t exten
I sively u-ed in families, tailor -hop-, aJn>c lactone-,
and carriage factories. Jt is an aefamtrb'diietl fa* t.

more than tint-thirds of all the clothing morn in this
country by tndh seres, tr hit her custom" made or ready
made, is actually manufactured upon TllK MM.KK
Sk'vini* Machine.
These Machines are manufactured by one of the
olde-t. strongest, and ino-t enterprising Compan
ies that has ever been engaged in the business in
the world. Throughout their immense manufac
tories, which are kept in con-tant operation "day
and night.” none hut highly skilled mechanics are
employed. Newly improved machinery i- em
ployed turning out each part finished to that me
chanical • \actnes-. that every one i- a perfect du
plicate of the other in size, weight and linish. All
new inventions are carefully examined and tested,
and it' approved, are adopted, regardless ot ex
pense. while the many impractical humbugs that
are patented, are left to grace some new wonder
and learn the purchaser when too late, that he has
“paid too dear for his whistle.” It should be re
membered that the singer Manufacturing Com
pany has never made a poor Machine—from the
very llr-t twenty-odd years ago. They never buy
editorial notice-*, or expend funds in “log-rolling”
at Fairs to gain medal- or premiums.
They simply make their Machines as valuable as
money and science can perfect them—place them
in their Mile- ltooius, and leave the public to lind
out their virtues in their own way. lty thi- straight
forward cour.-e they are now mamiiactiii ing about
four hundred her dav, and at that rale, even, are
unable to supply the demand.
WHAT IS THE NEW FAMILY SIM.EH OF 1S70?

perience in building sewing Machines.
It uses verv short straight ueedles.
It makes the Shuttle or Lock-Stitch alike upon
