LETTER FROM VIRGINIA
Richmond. Va., 10th Mo., 31st, 1870.
To the Editor of the Kennebec Journal ■
I propose to give you a brief account of a
week spent in Baltimore while attending the
yearly meeting of the Friends. The meeting
assembled on the 22nd inst., and was fully at
tended by the members belonging to it, though
it is the smallest body of Friends, holding a
yearly meeting, in America.
There is much enterprise apparent in this
city, and it has had a very rapid growth since
the war, and it is very common to hear
very extravagant conjectures relative to its
future. It is surely receiving a blessing from
the relief of the incubus of human slavery.
It is a very pleasant place to visit. Itsparks
ari fine, and its monuments are splendid.
The people are cordial and active, presenting
good business energy. There are many very
grand private residences, and the public
streets are very imposing in their appearance.
“The markets are the best in the world,” was
an expression I was willing to believe when
witnessing the display of the great variety of
articles of consumption, calculated to please
the most fastidious. The fruits were worthy
of special notice for their perfection and
beauty. A visit to the “Monumental City"
must afford to any one pleasant reflections. I
propose to visit Manassas and Bull Run battle
fields early next month, and will write to you
again from there. Your friend,
Samuel II. Jones.
The telegraph reports a case of summary
justice and successful family rebellion in Iowa.
George Hanson and his wife were visiting
friends in Marshalltown in that State. Han
son was a gambler and a cruel tyrant, and had
been in frequent quarrels with his neighbors.
One evening he began abusing his wife in a
most disgraceful manner. He at last seized
her and struck her several blows, whereupon
she drew a revolver, and discharged six bar
rels it him, three of which took effect, laying
him dead at her feet.
The fact that national tastes in drink-pro
voking fluids are widely different, is ryth
mically expressed in the following:
“The Buss loves brandy; Dutchman beer;
The Indian Kum most mighty;
The Welchman sweet methegliu quaffs.
The Irish aquavltse;
The french extol the Orleans grape;1
The Spaniard tipples sherry;
The Yankees none of these escape,
For they with all make merry.”
Mead's statue of Lincoln, made nt Flor
ence, hag been set up at the Ames Works, at
Chicopee, Mass.

CONCENTRATED
Fluid Extract Buchu.
rr n e
GREAT DIURETIC.
The Proprietor trusts that his Remedies, from the
fact of being advertised, may not be classed as Pa
tent Medicines.
BUCI1U, in one form or other, has been presented
by every educated Physician for more than
TWO HUNDRED TEARS.
II. T. IIELMBOLD claims a superior mode of
extracting its virtues. The experiments were made
while engaged in the DRUG business in the city of
Philadelphia, nineteen years ago, prompted by the
alarming increase of diseases of the Bladder, Kid
neys, Gravel and Urinary Organs, existing in both
sexes. These diseases were justly attracting as
much attention ns diseases of the Liver, or any
other vital organs of the body. Upon the sound and
healthy condition of these important organs, the
healthy and harmonious action of the nervous sys
tem and Liver, and consequently the happiness of
the entire human family, depends. That Buchu
should act upon both Liver and Kidneys, to pre
pare it so that it would retain its strength and active
principle, was liis aim. It must not be made, ae
housekeepers make tea, by boiling. It is a delicate
Leaf, and its active principle would be destroyed
by such a process. It inqst be prepared in V ACUO,
and from the Long-leaf, lresh and carefully se
lected.
Till; SUPERIORITY OF MV MODE OF PRE
PARATION BEING ACKNOWLEDGED, I now
ship even to the point (CAPE OF GOOD HOPE),
where the leaves are garnered, large quantities of
MY FLUID EXTRACT.
IN FACT, TIIE ARTICLE STANDS PRE EMI
NENT, AND IS KNOWN IN ALL PARTS OF THE
WORLD.
The first and most important object was to offer
to the afflicted a remedy that was perfectly safe,
and could be taken by adults and children. Igno
rant persons, who pay no attention to dose, direc*
tiou, or advice, might reason, “That if a teaspoon
fill, taken occasionally, did good, two would do
better, and perhaps a bottle would cure In a day.”
Many have broken down their health by dissipa
tion, and on his principle; but they had been years
in doing so.
What I would have understood is, that no injury
can arise from its use. It is as safe as any article
of food; but patients must not expect any medicine
to rebuild a wrecked or shattered constitution in a
few days.
This truth is so self-evident that it would seem
unnecessary to repeat it, were it not for the fact that
thousands of persons who are intelligent in all other
matters, seem to think unreasonably, that a cura
tive agent must exhibit its specific effects immedi
ately, when the fact is, that time is often au impor
tant element in the progress of a safe and thorough
cure, even when the medicine is working the best
results. These same persons would expend HUN
DREDS, yes, THOUSANDS of DOLLARS, in
articles of LUXURY and DISSIPATION, and think
less of it than they would of FIFTY DOLLARS in
medicine to rebuild a BROKEN DOWN and WORN
OUT CONSTITUTION.
Notwithstanding the number of years I have been
engaged in business, there may be those located at
a distance that may not be aware of all the facts,
and would like to be satisfied on all the points.
Having been educated a druggist, I append the fol
lowing
From the Largest Manufac
turing Chemist in
the World.
“I am acquainted with Mr. II. T. IIelmbold; he
occupied the Drug Store opposite my residence,
and was successful in conducting the business
where others had not been equally so before him.
1 have been favorably impressed with bis charac
ter and enterprise.”
WILLIAM WE1GHTMAN,
Firm of Powers & Weightraan, Manufacturing
C hemists, Ninth and Brown Streets, Philadel
phia, Nov. 15, 1854.
I propose to give evidence that this Remedy is
not a patent medicine. The objection which gener
ally lies against all discoveries and inventions in
medicine is “publicity.” If somebody should dis
cover a remedy to prolong life, or an infallible cure
for cholera or consumption, what a monster would
he be to withhold his knowledge 1 Wo have yet to
learn front what chapter or verse In Scripture to
quote, “that may not heal others of their fellow men
of any disease.”
Nor have we asked Pickwicks, affected prudes,
or, in short, men who are possessed of every kind
of sense hut common 6ense, and all kinds of opin
ions but their own. The Buchu is a good thing. It
has hundreds of thousands of living witnesses to
attest its virtues and commend it. It is the preju
dice of bigots and the envy of “Quacks.”

Dr. II. T. IIelmbold,
Dear Sir : We introduced your “Fluid Extract
Buchu” in this country about eight months ago, and
are huppv to state that it is meeting with universal
favor. We wish to inform you of one instance
(among many) where your “Buchu” has worked
wonders. A man in our county, named J. 1L Es
tell, had been suffering about five years with grav
el. About six weeks ago he bought of us one bot
tle of your “Buchu,” and before ho was through
with one bottle he passed a gravel that weighs eight
grains, which we now have on exhibition in uur
ding store. He says he never will be without the
“Buchu” in his house again. Your preparations
are gaining favor every day. Very respectfully,
yours, Ac., ECCLKS A flINKLE, Druggists.

(•ikAKi>, Pa., March 31,186».
Editor Cosmopolite I desire, as an unsolici
ted tribute to the merits of II elm hold’s Bugiiu,
and for the benefit of those similarly afflicted as
myself, to say that after consulting many eminent
physicians and trying nearly all the best advertised
remedies, m the vain hope of finding relief from
aggravated kidney and bladder diseases, from
which I have suffered excessively for many years,
good fortune finally suggested to mo Helm hold's
BUCIIU, which 1 commenced using with little faith,
and no apparent beneficial effects for about a
month. At the expiration of that time, however, 1
thought 1 commenced to experience slight relief,
which encouraged me to persevere in its use. and
now at the expiration of four months, although I
am an infirm old man, nearly seventy-eight years
of age, and consequently medicines cannot be ex
pected to favorably affect me ns they otherwise
would, I have found such unspeakable relief and
permanent benefit from Mr. Helmbold’s valuable
discovery, that 1 feel I ought to publicly record the
fact, as an acknowledgment to him, and a valuable
suggestion to the public. Yours respectfully,
D. M. LA REX.

DR. KEYSER
is a physician of over 30 years experience, ami a
graduate of the .Jefferson Medical College, and
of the University of Medicine and Surgery of Phil
adelphia.
Mr. II. T. Helmhold— Dear Sir: In regard to
the question asked me as to my opinion about Bu*
chti, I would say 1 have used and sold the article in
various forms for the pa>t thirty years. 1 do not
think there is any form or preparation of it 1 have not
used, or known to be used, in the various diseases
where such medical patent would be indicated.
You are aware, as well as myself, that it has been
extensively employed in the various diseases of the
bladder and kidneys, and the reputation it has ac
quired, in my judgment, is warranted by ihe facts.
I have seen and used, as before stated, every form
of Iiuchu—the powdered leaves, tincture fluid ex
tracts—and 1 am not cognizant of anv preparation
of that plant at all equal to yours. Twelve vears’
experience ought, I think, to give me the right to
judge of its merits, and, without prejudice or par
tiality, I give you precedence over all others.
1 value your Huchu for its effect on patients. I
have cured with it, and seen cured with it. more
diseases of the bladder ami kidneys than 1 have
ever seen cured with any other buch’u or any other
proprietary compound of whatever name.
Respectfully yours, Ac.,

A Case of Twenty Years’
Standing.
Philadelphia, Pa., June 25,1867.
II. T. Hklmrot.I), Druggist—Dear Sir: I have
been a sufferer for upwards of twenty years with
gravel, bladder ami kidney affections,during which
time 1 have used various medicinal preparations
and been under the treatment of the most eminent
physicians, experiencing but little relief.
Having seen your preparations extensively ad
vertised, I consulted my family physical! in regard
to using your Extract Buchu.
1 did this because 1 had used all kinds of adver
tised remedies ami had found them worthless, and
some quite injurious; in fact, 1 despaired of ever
getting well, and determined to use no remedies
hereafter unless 1 knew of the ingredients, it was
this that prompted me to use your remedy. As you
advertised that it was composed of buchu, cubebs
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 with the druggist, I concluded to try
it. I commenced to use it about eight months ago,
at which time I was confined to my room.
From the first bottle 1 was astonished at the ben
eficial effect, and after using it three weeks was
able to walk out. I felt much like writing to you a
full statement of my case at the time, but thought
iny improvement might only be temporary, and
therefore concluded to defer, and see it it’would
effect a perfect cure, knowing then it would be oi
greater value to you und more satisfactory to me.
] am now able to report that a cure is effected,
after using the remedy for five mouths.
J have not used any now for three months, and
leel as well in ail respects as I ever did.
Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant taste
and odor, a nice tonic and invigorator of the system,
1 do not mean to be without it whenever occasion
may require its use in such affections.
