Hake Home Pleasant for Boys.
Much has been said of the rights arid
wrongs of women ; and volumes of com
plaints have been uttered against men fur
the unjust and selfish laws they have
made; but as long as boys are subjected
to tyranny, injustice and oppression at
home, so long will the inequality of the
rights and privileges of men and women
be felt. It is natural for man to wish to
be avenged of his adversary, and in this
case custom lias placed the means of aveng
ing himself in his own hands. I have
one boy in tny mind now, and hundreds
are treated like him, who never sees a
moment’s happiness at homo, and fairly
dreads the hour of meal time, because of
the scoldings and frettings and fault-find
ings, that always greets him when he en
ters the house. 11 is sisters call him an
awkward, ugly boy—make cruel sport of
him by mimicking his ways, laughing at
his untidy clothes, his smutty hands and
face; his mother calls him a vagabond, a
scapegrace—and tells him in almost every
other breath, that he is killing her and his
father—fairly breaking their hearts with
his Undutiful behaviour! He has heard
this over and over so many limes that he
has almost come to the conclusion that he
is the wickedest boy alive ; lie hates him
self. He told me that he did not see how
men could ever want to be boys again,
and wished that he could “grow to be a
man in one day, so that he could go where
he liked, and get out of the way of these
women folks.”
When this boy does grow to manhood,
what inducements wili he have to yield
any rights that he can command to wo
man ? What chord in his bosom will
ever vibrfite with tender memories at the
name of Mother? Or what recollection
of a sister’s love will ever prompt him to
aacrifice self-interest for woman’s sake ?
Mothers and sisters—if you wofild have
men generous, noble-hearted, waiting to
grant all the privileges your womanhood
has a right to ask, leach them first to love
you while they are little boys; contribute
to their happiness then, protect their rights,
show yourselves worthy of their respect,
and if ever you have occasion to ask their
protection, you will not ask in vain.

Da. Sledge —Dear Sir: I have sold all your
Cholera or Diarrhcea Syrup. I have used it
myself, and also in my family several times,
and I can say for the truth, it is the best medi
cine for the Flux I have ever seen, for it has
not failed to cure in every case in 48 hours. 1
would not be without it in my family for ten

spects to you, please let me say to you that my
friend, Mr. F. Russer, the gentleman to whom
I went with to sea from Gallatin, has im
proved to the extent that he is able to go any
where his business calls him; in fact your
medicine has performed such miraculous
cures, in every instance where it lias been
tried, that having gone into business at iiazle

try some of your Compounds, as I understood
you to say when you were here that yon
would t .ke oil 20 or 25 per cent. You will
therefore please send to me say 18 bottles
Cholera Medicine, 18 bottles Nerve and Bone
Liniment, 24 bottles lloarhound Pectoral, and
the balance of the One Hundred Dollars which
you will find enclosed, in your Nervous Tonic.
I send the right hand end of the money, and
dii the reception of the first halt, you wilt
please send the medicine and write to me, and
I will send the other half. I expect you to
send me your Nervous Tonic at $1 GO, as you
sold it at $2 00 by the single bottle. Do not
delay sending the Medicine, as there is a con
siderable demand or call for it. Mr. Poave,
who was given over to die in a few days, is up
and going about, and I have no douht he will
recover. THOS. H. WHEELER.

Dr. J. M. Sledge :
Dear Sir—In conversation with your agent,
1 learned that some prejudiced persons, which
ire to be found everywhere, against patent med
icines, spoke of your medicines as not doing
much for themselves or any one else. To see
ustice done between all parties, and to enable
others, if they wish, to receive the same benc
its that I have from your medicines, I will
umply give you a statement of facts, which
you can make any use of you please. If any
>ne doubts let them call on' me and 1 can satis
fy them, f ain probably as well known as any
>ne in this portion of the State, but 1 am not
n the habit of giving certificates, hut fee!
hat in giving this one 1 am fully justified.—
M v son was taken sick with the Flux last July,
md lay seventeen or eighteen days, when all .
lope on my part was gone, ami nothing ap
peared to do him any good, 1 commenced giv
»g him vonr Diarrhma or Flux Syrup, and be
■ommenced mending immediately. 1 verily
iclieve itwas the saving of his life. You have
lie facts. Hoping that others may receive
he benefit that my son did, I remain, yours
■espectfully, JOHN F. ANDERSON.
Anderson. Tenn., March 31, 1858.
Dr. Sledge:—Dear Sir: Your medicines
lave rendered general satisfaction here; they
lave even gone beyond the flattering recom
nendation given by yourself. I have used in
ny family, with unparalleled success, your
Mervous Tonic, your Diarrhcea Syrup, and
our Liniment and Hoarhound Pectoral ; and
lave found them superior to any medicines
ver used here, for the various diseases arising
rom a miasmatic country like this, where
’’ever and Ague, Diarrhoea and Rheumatism,
ire the prevailing diseases. Your Nervous
L’onic has been used by many others as well
is myself, as a preventive of Fever and Ague ;
uid it has invariably given satisfaction. 1 j
or one say emphatically that it will prevent
''hills and Fevers, if taken according to the j
Erections; and that one bottle will save any
amily ten times the cost, if used as a proven- j
iye. I used it in my family last year, and I ,
,vill certify on oath that one bottle saved me '
it least ten times its cost. The three years
previous to last year, not one of us escaped j
he Chills and F evers, and last year we used !
inly one of your bottles of Nervous Tonic; j
MEMPHIS ADVERT1SEMENTs.
and if there was a Chill or Fever, or a symp.
torn of one, in my family, I never knew (t. j
could cite you ta numerous cases that, when
given out as hopeless, by able physicians. ym,r
Cholera and Hinnhrra Syrup have cured; but
you have a certificate from Mr. Andeison, who
is well known, that will surprise you in gjv.
ing yon a knowledge of the invaluable estinij.
tion your medicines are held in here. J could
give you many frames here, of good and re|j.
able men, who will certify, on oath what ij
stated in J. F. Anderson’s certificate, and
where your Diarihaja Syrup has performed
many other cures that were equally as hope!Cs,
as his son.
Yours, respectfully,
W. J. MATTHEWS.
P. S. When you ship your medicines to Mr,
Swope, be sure and send him two or three
dozen bottles of your Nervous Tonic.
- w. J. M.
P. S. I have also used your Ague medicines,
and one bottle of Pectoral, for coughs and
colds; and I do most honestly believe that
there is no preparation for the Chills, and for
Coughs and Colds, equal to it, in use. You
may use this in the form of a certificate, if you
see proper. Send the medicine soon.
[maylo] Yours truly, John Swope.

A T T E \ 'S’ SON!
A COTTON GIN FEEDER that wifi save
the labor of a hand at every Cotton Gin
to which it may be attached, thus dispensing
with feeding by hand, (a very injurious prac
tice to the close attendant.) is certainly a desi
rable object. Besides which, the Feeder will
remove a large portion of tile dust, dirt, hulls,
etc., from the colton, before it enters the tin.
thus improving the quality and “sample”o! 1
