Preparod by Dr. C. M. JACKSON, German

Thoir power ovor the above diseases is not
excelled, if equalled, by any other prepara-
tion in tho United States, as tho cures attest
in many cases after skilful physicians had
failed.
J'hese Bitters are worthy the attention o/
invalids. Possessing groat virtues in the rec-
tification of the livor and lesser glands, exer-
cising the most searching power in weakness
and affections of tho digestivo organs, thoy
are withal safe, certain aud ploasaui.
Read the Testimony from Texas.
B. F. Ruckcr, Washington, Texas, Sept. 24,
1853, says: (l I have sold the last bottle ot
German Bitters to-day. It have sold the last
bottle of Gorman Bitters to-day. It is quite
a popular medicine, and those who have used
it speak in tho highest terms of its salvtary
influence."
S. W. Fisher, Matagorda, Texas, July 15th,
1353, says: "The Gennau L'itte.s have be-
come very popular here, nnd are moving oil
rapidly.
T. H. McMabon & Co., Richmond, Texae,
Sept. 22, 1852, says: " We aro pleased to in-
foom you that your German Bitter* givo uni

Coo. Young, Wheelock, Texas, April 17,

rived in good time for the sununer sickness,
and I think there will be a good demand for
them, as I find every person who h;>s used
them pronounced it the best medicine of the
the kind they have over known."
Theso Bitters aro entirely vegetable, there-

The great and important events—Relish
Political, and Military—now ugRntin* th«
nations of the Old World, give to these Pub-
lications nn interest and value thoy nevor
before posesaod. They occupy a middle ground
between the hastily writen news-ites«s> cmde
speculations, nnd flying rumors of tho nevs*
paper, and the pondorous Tome of the histo-
rian, written long after the living inteccst
iu tho fncts tho records shall have passed
away. The progress of tho War in the Ensfc
occupies a large space in their pnges. Every
movement is closely criticised, whether ot
friend or of foe, and all short comings fearless-
ly pointed out. The letters from th« Crirno
nnd from the Baltic in the Blackwood's Mugn-*
zino, from two otho most popular conlrilu*
tors, give a more intelligible and reliable ac-
count of the moveniQuts of the great belliger-
ents thnn can elsewhere he fbr.ud.
These Periodicals ably represent the three
great political parties of Great Britai —
Whig, Torry, nnd Radical,—but politics orm
only ono feature of their character. A* Or-
gans of the most profound writers on scicucc,
literature, morality, nnd religion, they ¿land
as thoy ever have stood, unrivalled in th
world of letters, being considered indis-
pensable to the scholar nnd the proft*siom«I
man, while to the intelligent reader of t very
class they furnish a more correct und satw -
faotory record of the current literal are of the
day, throughout the world, than can be pos-
sibly obtained from any other source.
