Bow Barnnm Purchased the Museum.
In an esevy which P. T. Barnum contributed
to Freedleys Treatise on Business, be thus al
ludes to the purchase of the Museum :
“ In 1841, I purchased the American Musenm
in New York without a dollar, for I was not
worth a dollar in the world. But I was never
disheartened; I always felt that I could make
money fast enough, if I only 6et my mind to
“ I remember meeting a friend in Broadway,
a few weeks before I came in possession of the
Museum. ‘ Well,' said I, ‘ Mr. A., I am going
to buy the American Museum.’ ”
“ * Buy it,’ said he, tor he knew I had no
property, 4 what do you intend to buy it
with ?’ ”
“•Brass,' I replied, ‘for silver and gold I
have none.' ”
“It was even so. Everybody who had any |
connection with theatrical, circus, or exhibi
tion business, from Edmund Simpson. Manager .
of the Old Park Theatre, or ll'm. Xiblo, dow n :
to the most humble puppet showman of the day,
knew me perfectly well. Mr. Francis Olmsted. ;
the owner of the" Museum building, (now de-1
ceased,) a noble, whole-souled man as one often
meets with, having consulted my references,;
who all concurred in telling him 1 was r ‘ good ,
showman, and would do as I agreed,’ accepted j
my proposition to give security for me in the ■
purchase of the Museum collection ; he appoint- i
ed a money taker at the door, and crediting me
towards the purchase, all the money received
after paying expenses—allowing me SSO per
month on which to support my family, consist
ing of a wife and three children. This was my
own proposition, as I was determined so to live
that S6OO per annum would defray all the ex
penses of my family until I had paid for the
Museum. And my treasure of a wife (and such
a wife is a treasure) gladly assented to the ar
rangement, and expressed her willingness to
cut the expenses down to S4OO per annum, if
necessary.
“ One day, some six months after I had pur
chased the Museum, my friend Mr. Ulmstead
happened in at my ticket office about VI o'clock, |
and found me alone, eutiug my dinner, which I
consisted of a few slices of corned beef and 1
bread that I had brought from home in the j
morning.
“ * Is this the way you eat your dinner V he i
inquired.
“ 4 1 huve not eaten a warm meal since I
bought the Museum, except on the Sabbath,’ I
replied ; 4 and I iutcml never to eat another un
til I get out of debt.’
“‘Ah! you are safe, and will pay for the
Museum before the year is out,’ he replied,
slapping me familiarly on the shoulder.
“And he was right, for in less than a year
from that period 1 was in full possession of the
Museum os my own property: every cent paid i
out of the profit of the establishment. Had 1 |
been less economical and less determined, my
expenses would have kept pace with my iji-:
come ; I should have lost much valuable "time
in going home every day to my dinner, and my
present situation would probably have beeu
very different from it is.’’
Anecdote of President Tti.er.— lt is rela
ted of ex-President Tyler, that from the time of
his election to the V'ice Presidency until the
death of General Harrison, he kept no carriage,
on account of the insufficiency of his salary.—
When, however, he found himself accidentally
elevated to the Chief Magistracy, the former
difficulty being removed, he at once determined
to set up an equippage. He accordingly bought
a pair of horses, and engaged a coachman, and
then began to look out for a vehicle. Hearing
of one for sale which belonged to a gentleman
residing in Washington, and which had only
been driven a few times, the President went to I
look at it. Upon examination he was perfectly
satisfied with it himself, but still he thought i"t
more prudent, before purchasing it, to take the
opinion of his Hibernian coachman upon it.
Pat reported that it was “jist the thing for his 1
honor.”
•‘But, ’ said Mr. Tyler, “do you think it would
be altogether proper for the* President of the
United States todrive a second-hand carriage!!”
44 And why not?” answered the Jehu ; sure
and ye'r only a second-hand President.'’
A clergyman, who was consoling a young
widow on the death of ln-r husband, spoke in a
very serious tone, remarking that he w as - one
of the few. Such a Jewel of a Christian. You
cannot find his equal, you know. ’’ To w hich
the sobbing tair one replied, with an almost
broken heart, “I don’t know, but I’ll try.”
The editor of the Norfolk Democrat is a lucky
man. He uses flowery language, to wit: ‘-Some
person has sent us as line a barrel of flour as
ever was made into bread. It is of the finest
bolted wheat; but whether the owner is a bolt
er or not, we cannot say. We intend to sift the
matter to the bottom—bf the barrel. It may be
that it was sent for the purpose of stopping our
mouth ; but wc fear that cannot be done so
easily.”
Losing One’s Identity— lt was said by War
ren Hastings, speaking of the power of Burke's
elotiuenee and sarcasm, when the former was on
trial of impeachment before the British Parli
ament. relative to his conduct as Governor Gen
eral of British India, that altho’ perfectly con
scious of his innocence of the charges preferred
against him, he began, while listening to the
scathing denunciations of the great orator, al
most to doubt his own identity; to loathe him
self, and to believe himself "to be the vilest
scoundrel that had ever contaminated the earth
by his presence.
A Timely Warning.— The senior editor of
the Amherst Cabinet, speaking of the rigid
scrutiny which the characters of the Presiden
tial candidates are undergoing, very devoutlv
exclaims:
“ How careful, then, we all ought to be as to
what manner of persons we are, lest we may
some time or other become candidates for the
Presidency, to which we are all liable in this
land of liberty, obligation and responsibility."
Is it Trie.— The Springfield Republican
states that there is a story current in that city,
that a gentleman not unknown in business cir
cles is living on a cracker a day. by the direc
tions of the spirits, anti that he is so feeble as
to be hardly able to walk. It is also said that
there is a most worthy citizen in a beautiful
town in Wocester county, who has lived for
years on a per diem diet" of a cup of coffee, a
pinch of snuff, and the Boston Atlas, and that
he is entirely sane and in fine condition.
The Boston Herald says that a 44 striped pig "
dodge, in the shape of an omnibus ride for four
pence and the liquor gratis, was started at the
muster at Milford, on the 2d inst.
A new toy for the amusement and exercise of
children, has been invented, called the “ Xur
sery-Y acht.” It has a see-saw movement, and
is quite safe, and promises to rival the - babv
jumper. ”
A Good Hit. —Theodore Parker sars: 44 Mr.
Leaning-both-ways is a popular politician in
America, just now sitting ou the fence between
Honesty and Dishonesty, and like the blank
leaf between the Old anti New Testament, be
longing to neither dispensation.”
A Present to Gen. Pierce.— Mr. J. Gillott.
an extensive flour dealer in Cleveland, a very
influential citizen, and a Democrat from hi’s
youth, recently sent a barrel of extra brand
*Y Ur ij° General Pierce, with a message that he
roould vote for Gen. Scott. We don t believe
‘?<>ked very amiable while swallowing
the bread made from that flour.
The question why printers do not succeed in
business as well as brewers, was thus answered
Because printers w-ork for the head, and bjew
ers for the stomach, and where twenty mJn
have stomachs, but one has a head.” ’
Novel Suit. —The heirs of Robinson Crusoe
have instituted a suit to recover the Island" of
Juan Fernandez, founding their claim upon the
ground that he was 44 monarch of all he survey
ed.” The answer put into the suit is, that he
was never a surveyor at all, but only a strand
ed sailor, and tenant at will by circumstance.
The less brains one has, the more noise he
maltee in the world. A full carriage rolls
along quietly, but an empty one rattles and
incessantly. A drum is one of the

SSOO CHALLENGE.
VU HATEVER concerns tile health and
* * happlne## ol a people 1* st all times of the most
valuable importance. I take it for granted that every
person will do all in their power to save the live* of their
children, and that every person will endeavor lo promote
their own bealih at all sacrlfires. I feel U to be my duty
to solemnly assure you that Worms, according to the o
pinion oi (he most celebrated Physician, are the primary
causes or a large majority of disease* to which children
and adult# are liable; il you have an appetite continually
changeable from one kind of food to another. Bad Breath,
Pain in the Stomach, Picking at the Nose, Hardness ami
Fullness of the Belly, Dry Cough, Slow Fever, pulse Ir
regular—remember that all these denote Worms, and you
bhonld at once apply the remedy:—
HOBENSACK’S WORM SYRUP.
An article founded upon Scientific Principles, compound
ed with purely vegetable unbalances, being perfectly safe
j when taken, and can be given to the nn»t tender iniant
i w *th decided beneficial effect, where liowt l Complaint *
and Diarrhea have made them weak and debilitated the
! Tonic properties of my worm Syrup are such that It stand*
without an equal in the catalogue of medicines, In giving
! tone and strength to the stomach, which makes It an in
! fallible remedy for those afflicted with Dyupepgia, the as
tonishing cures performed by tiii* syrup after Physicians
have failed, is the best evidence of its superior efficacy
ever .ill others.
THE TAPt WORM.
| Till* i* the rno#t difficult Worm to destroy of all that in
; f e - vt Hie human system; it grows to an almost indefinite
length, K* com ing so coiled and fastened in the intestines
• stomach, affecting the health *o *adlv as to cause St.
Vitus Dunce, Fits, &c., that those afflicted seldom if ever
\ »»»Pect that it i* Tape Worm hastening them to an early
; grave. In order to destroy thi# worm, a very energetic
; treatment must be put sued, it would therefore be proper
j take 6toß of ray liver Pill# so as to remove all obstruc
» tlon#, that the Worm syrup may act direct upon the Worm,
, which must be taken in dote# of 2 tablespooufuis 3 time*
a day ; those directions followed have never been known
! to f&il in curing the most obstinate case of Tape Worm.
Hobensack’s Liver Pills,
No part of the system is more liable to disease than the
Liver, it serving a> a fliterer to purify the blood, or glv
• ing the proper secretion to the bile; go that any wrong
f action of the Liver affect# the other ini|(ortant part* of
the system, and results variously, in Liver Complaint,
Jaundice, Dyspepsia, etc. We should, therefore, watch
every symptbm that might indicate a wrong action of the.
: Liver. These Pills being comjMsed of Root* and I’lanU
} furnished by nature to heal the sick: Namely, Ist, an Ex
-1 pcctorant, which augments the secretion from the Pui
• monary mucus membrane, or promotes the discharge of
j secreted matter. 2d. An Alterative, which change# in
Mile inexplicable and insensible manner the certain mor
bid action id the system. 3d. A Tonic which gives tone
and strength to the nervous >ystern, renewing health and
vigor to ali part* of the body. 4th. A Cathartic which
act* in perfect harmony with the other ingredient*, and
. operating on the Bowels, and expelling the whole mass of
j corrupt and vitiated matter, and purifying the Blood,
which destroy# Uisea.se and restores health.
To Female*.
Ton will find these Pill* an invaluable medicine In many
complaints to which you are subject. In obstruction*, ei
ther total or partial, they have been found of inestimable
ben “fit, restoring their functional arrangements to a heal
thy aciion, purifying the blood and other fluids so effec
tually to put to flight ail complaints which may arise from
female irregular!ties, as headache, giddiness,* dimness of
sight, pain in Hr*- side, back, etc.

(phthisic puinionaris) is a curable DISEASE. Some of
tiie ablest medical writers assert this; among whom we
may cite the celebrated names of Lienee, Andrul, Cruvil-
Uer, Stoke* and Williams. Their researches, as well as
the more recent ones of Kogee and Houdet, that so far
from pulmonary tubercle being necessarily fatal, it is spon
taneously cured by uaturc in a vast number of case#, even
when la rye ulcere have been formed on the lung*.
The great object, is to arrest the progress of the ulcers
(or tubercles) upon the lungs, and to heal them perma
nently. Health wilt then follow. This the Graefenberg
Consumptive Balm will do, and it is believed to be tin
only remedy ever discovered. It act* at once upon the
tubercles and invariably arrest# their progress, and restore*
the lungs to soundness, it will uotot course replace those
]H>rtk>us of the lungs already consumed, but it will heal
what may be left; leaving the individual in health, though
it may be with diminished lungs.
DR. LIBBY’S CELEBRATED PILE OINTMENT.
As prepared for the Graefenberg Company, and bearing
the s.-al of that institution. None genuine unless it has
the seal of the company.
A CURE IS WARRAXTED .
This i* # sufficient argument to induce every person suf
fering under tiffs disease to try it. The money will be im
mediately refunded if a cur-. 4 does not result from its use
according to directions.
THE GRAEFENBERG EYE-LOTION
For disorders of the eye this lotion has no equal; it is com
pounded upon the most scientific principles, and ha-, per
formed ex ranrdinarv cure*. For violent intiainatioii, dim
n ss and lading 01 the sight, weakness ot the eyes, invol
untary weeping, foreign substance# in the eyes, etc., it is
a positive and speedy cure.
GRAEFENBERG CHILDREN’S PANACEA
A most strange and incredible fact meets ns at tbe vctv
threshold of our remarks mi thi* valuable medicine, it is
till*: that no medicine prewired adapted to the various dis
eases of children and youth lias ever been offered to the
public, while at the same time It is established by the
most accurate table# of mortality that one-half of the hu
man family die before reaching the age of five years.
We should suppose that to this great cla»s of human suf
ferers—till* one-half of the race—the most anxious and
earnest attention would have been given; that medical
skill would have be -n tasked to il* utmost capacity to find
out a medicine to which mothers and nurses might resort
under the constantly recurring necessiti s which pres nt
themselves in this connection. The world is literally
crowded with medicines for adults but to tliesuffcriiig ot
children no one has seemed to turn proper attention. No
one has regarded their condition. No one has seemed to
think it possible that the ravages of disease and death
among them might lie stay.-d. It is true that there are
numerous Vermifuges and Cordial# of #oim- value, but
»M»e|» «.f thetio *ro courim d exclusively to one or two form#
of disease. The Graefenberg Children’# Panacea is tbe
only medicine extant to either hemisphere that is at all
worthy of h ing called a Children’* Medicine; or that sup
plies the great want alluded to.
