BETTER THAN GOLD! Portsmouth, July 9,1861. Mb. J. E. Boukh?Dear Sir: I feel it a duty to make known the benefit I have derived from Dr. Hampton'* VEGETABLE TINCTURE. For a number of year* 1 suffered from disease, but to a greater degree for the last three years. One of the forms of my disease was dyspep sia. From this dreadful malady I suffered to such an ex tent that life was really a burden. The attack of it on me was different to that on any other person of whom I have heard; at times it was like the palpitation of tin heart; there was a constant thumping and beating with out intermission about the region of my heart, cheet, and stomach; some of the attacks would last fbr weeks ; my ! stomach was much distended, with coustant pain, great | weakness, and constipation of the bowels. I could not oat the most simple food without pain. I also suffered ; greatly fhim disease of the kidney*, with constant pain in the back, that I could walk only with great difficulty. I tried nearly all of the most colebrnted patent medicines I of the day, bat found no relief, i had also the best medi cal attendance. One of my phy-idans frankly told me 11 was of no use for me to be paying him for advice, as he could do me no good. I gave up almost in despair, and i thought my disease certainly incurable. At this juncture 1 beard of Hampton's Vegetable Tinc ture. 1 refused to give it a trial, although persuaded by my friends, until my son purchased a few bottles, and requested me to try it; after taking it a few times, it bad a most happy effect on me; my confidence Increased, and after taking throe bottles, my dyspepsia, or disease of the stomach, was nearly if not entirely cured. I now feel myself a now man, and In better health than for years. { 1 ain certain the cure in my case was made by this liauip ! ton's Vegetable Tincture alone. Since my cure I have recommended the tincture to a number of my friends, who have also been relieved by It. Home of the curvs, have lieen as rapid and equally wonderful as mine. I present my respects to Messrs. Mortimer A Mowbray. ; the proprietors of this valuable medicine, and say to them : Its value is above price; and from my cure, and what 1 I have seen of its effects on others, I shall ever feel It my ' duty to reoommrnd It to the suffering. I have no doubt many valuable lives will be prolonged by it* use. I hope | the afflicted will cast aside their prejudices and give it a trial. Your* most respectfully, (Signed) John Lckk. The above Is extracted from a letter from a gentleman sixty years of age, and of high character. He says : " I have j^ven but a faint Idea of my sufferings; I feel Inad equate to the task." We also have received, in the last few days, letter* from two of oar most worthy and well known elti*ens, giving two remarkable cures of spinal disease. But yesterday one of the oldest merchants re j ported that he was cured of neuralgia of the head, of years standing, ami so bad that his teeth fell out from it* I effect*. Call and see letter*. Was them ever so many cures, wonderful cures, made by any other medicine. I All we aak of the afflicted Is that they try Hampton's i Vegetable Tincture, the great purifier of the blood and | cure fbr all chronic diseases, as dyspepsia, rheumatism, 1 scrofula, and all complaints of the stomach, bowels, Ac.

The Brother Jonathan sailed from Kingston eight hours ahead of the Illinois. The California news possesses little interest. Considerable excitement prevailed with regard to the election. Business was brisk, and ac counts from the mining districts continued fa vorable. The weather was tine, and the crops in promising condition. The state of society had somewhat improved, owing to the efforts of the Vigilance oominittees, and the more prompt action of the civil authorities.

The grand railroad jubilee at Boston will prove one of the greatest events of the year, attended as it is by the principal public char acters of the United States, and the adjoining proviuces. When President Fillmore shall have returned to Washington, Mr. Webster made another dish of chowder at Marshfield, Lord Elgin taken up his quarters at Quebec, the new seat of government of Canada, after visiting New York, and the rest of the distinguished as well as obscure individuals shall have returned to their homes, we shall analyze the whole affair iu our own way. The New York State Fair, at Rochester, is also an event which must attract considerable attention. The proceedings of yesterday were of a very interesting character. The whole affair is got up in a style reflecting great credit upon our agricultural and mechanical skill, and excels all previous exhibitions of a like charac ter. While President Fillmore, Mr. Webster, and Lord Elgin are the great lions of the jubilee at Boston, Senator Douglas appears as the leading star at the State Fair, and will to-mor row deliver the annual address before the thou sands assembled at Rochester. The secession party in Louisiana is making an effort to carry that State against the Com promise, and some of the most prominent men have enlisted in the cause of opposition to the Union. There is, however, a strong majority ?f the people in favor of the compromise mea sures. We regret to see that another fillibiulero ex pedition is forming in Texas against one of the States of Mexico, which will probably end us did the last unfortunate effort against Cuba. The point of concentration is within the bound ary of the United States, and consequently comes under the laws providing against armed expeditions forming in the territory of the Con federacy, against a friendly.power. Tint Pampero.?W6 find in the New York Courier .j- Enquirer the following letter from Mr. Heiss: Washington, Sept. 12, 1851. To the Editori of the Courier Sf Enquirer: Your Washington correspondent, under date of the 10th instant, says : "The owners of the Pampero begiu to betray great uneasiness lest that vessel may be cap tured ; and, indeed, I thiuk they have good cause for alarm, as I do not see how she is to escape the vigilance of those on the look-out tor her. Major Heiss, formerly of the Union, one of the owners of that boat, is also proprie tor of the New Orleans Delta, the print that had ao large a share in misleading the minds of indiscreet and unwary youths. Certainly where, the guilty parties are discovered they should Oe called to a most rigid account." This appears to have been written for the purpose of placing upon my shoulders part of the responsibility attached to the late disas trous Cuban expedition. You will please state that I am not one of the owners of the Pampero, nor have I been interested in any wayrtn getting up said expe dition. Neither lmve I advised, or used any means whatever to "mislead the minds of in discreet or unwary youths, by inducing or en couraging them to join" in that unfortunate adveuture. John P. Heiss.

M'trrr. Mortimer if- Mombray:?Gentlemen: My daugh ter having been afflicted for more than a year with the spinal disease, and having 'tried every remedy that wiw prescribed by some of our best physicians, without afford ing her any apparent relief, 1 fortunately was advised by a friend to try a bottle of " Dr. Hampton's Vegetable Tincture," which relieved her of her pain in less than twenty-four hours. I am pleased to say that since she took it she has been free from pain, and she is gradually gaining strength, which 1 attribute entirely to the restor ative properties of this medicine. I believe If It were more extensively used, it would do more good in the re moval of such diseases incident to the human family than what is usually prescribed.
