In testimony of his appreciation of a laudable enterprise for assisting the Disabled Veterans of the War, the Widows and Orphans of those who fell in defence of our country, to earn a livelihood,
MR. H. T. HELMBOLD, CHEMIST, the Great Public Benefactor, has purchased of us this entire edition of our
CHRONOLOGICAL RECORD OF THE WAR.
The dates of Battles, Officers Commanding, &c., are reliable; and not- withstanding the matter has been procured at great outlay of Time and Money, which, if not condensed, would make an 8mo. volume, still the reader has all the important facts, and the price at Retail has been placed by Mr. 11. at Five
Cents [Kir copy, only.
It is valuable to those visiting foreign countries, and to children, as it affords interesting study and instruction.
To every honorably discharged Soldier and Sailor seeking r pleasant, and profitable employment, it will be furnished by Mr. Hklmbold for simply the cost of paper, without reference to the printing.
SOLDIERS & SAILORS’ PUBLISHING COMPANY. The Leaves of the Tree wero for the Healing of the Nations.
Wc havo published the celebrated medical advertisement of Dr. H. T. Helmbold. Previous to doing so, we have received a modcrato reward, in the usual way, of payment, which wc apply to all the wares, wants, and business cards we present to our readers. It is our custom to examine everything thoroughly which we offer through our columns, and to refuse all that we cannot commend. Now, as our readers know we never do anything by halves, they can readily infer that when a so-called medical advertisement occupies a whole page in the Church Union, we mean something by it. It is not our purpose to dodge or tergiversate, or to wink at any such thing. We have no managing agent who smuggles into one column what is boldly condemned in another. The Gettys. burg Asylum swindle came to us; we judged not by feeble sense, popular disfavor, »or by Congressional action, but wo examined for ourselves, and no money in the world could buy one inch of the Church Union to commend it. Precisely the same course we pursued toward Helmbold’s Buchu. We had seen it everywhere ; it haunted our vision on rock, mountain, and curbstone; in the cars, on steamboats, and by the wayside, we saw this omnipresent specific advertised. We never gave it a thought—nevercondemned it, never commended it; did not rush in the face of prejudices, and cry out quack, quack! We knew nothing of It; had other, and we thought, more important subjects for comtempla- tion, than this wonderful medicine. So when it came up for our consideration, we deter- mined to investigate for ourselves. As we do in theology, so do we in medicine—never ask, “ What does Dr. so-and-so think, or say, or surmise ?M If it is wrong, all the world may espouse, yet let our right hand forget its cunning, and our tongue cleave to the roof of our mouth, if we waver one atom in our devotion. If it be right, not even the fact that a host commend, and a fortune is being made out ofit, shall keep us from fidelity to it. For there may be many men so mean in this world that they will never advocate a good thing if anybody gets a good living by it. We know of men who won’t hear Henry Ward Beecher preach, because he lives in a brown stone front, and manages to keep the wolf from the door, quite easily. Just bo with Dr. Helmbold; because he is making a fortune by his enterprise, wo cannot bend ourselves to the mean task of condemnation and whole, sale slander. There is something about the man you like at once. He is no quack. A quack is an empiricist, who tampers with disease, by applying remedies he knows nothing about. Dr. Helmbold is an educated man; he is frank in every respect; readily lays before you the ingredients or vegetable compounds of his medicine. The very processes ofdistillation are perfectly patent; there is no diabolical decoction or compounding of elements that are vile, and of course, secret. Everything is open and above board ; what he does he knows; you cannot be in his establishment three minutes without seeing that he is a man who knows what he is about. All the world may know that the medicine he sells so largely all over the world, is the very best diuretic known. It is in strict accord- ance with the text at the head of this article. It is but the leaf of a shrub or tree, gathered by the wild Hottentots, and has been known for many years. Many others have used, and bear ample testimony to its usefulness. We dare any unprejudiced physician to testits virtues and not yield to its superior merit. There are other ingredients, as his advertisement shows. And now having a good thing, devoted to it with an enthusiasm which bespeaks honesty at once, what can we say, what need we say? The diseases treated are, some of them, peculiar and fearful; but did our Saviour shrink from the loathsome leper, because the world did? The Buchu is a specific remedy, and ought to go over all this world, if it is what any scientific man can prove it to be, a blessing. Be- leiving it to be a blessing, wo have allowed it place, and shall do it again, and for any and every good thing. As a toad from a viper, would we shrink from error or evil, whether of Churchor State; but every good thing we advocate. Let the insane man who cries out quack at everything medicinal, pause, reflect, and come to his senses. Quackery is empirical, but such is not the Buchu; nor of such is the enterprising and enthusiastic man who is bound to succeed, because he wieldsright. Success to the Buciiu.

The Merit of my articles gave me confidence in advertising. Would any one devote years of application without a thorough investigation ? Although I have frequently heard persons remark (repudiating sincerity of purpose and merit) that, “all that is necessary is to advertise,” yet I have never seen any who would not hesitate. Many intelligent and persevering men have been induced to embark in the business, be- lieving they had this essential element, and after having expended thousands of dollars in bringing it before the community, have found, in a short time, that their article was not successful in curing a majority of cases; and failure was the inevitable con- sequence. Advertising does not make merit; it makes merit known, and merit makes both reputation and money. I full well know that there are thousands who are envious of the success of others, and who seldom speak in a complimentary manner of the merits of an article, or the enterprise of any, but I will remark, that I do not there is a “ Druqgist ” or '•'•Physician" in the United States, or the world, who, if he had as goon a remedy as mine, would hesitate to pursue the same course as adopted by myself.

It is one of those places which arrest the eyes of the passer-by, and compel him to stop and examine it, almost against hia will. Not that externally it is marked by any sti iking architectural beauty, but that there ia a certain nameless fascination about it, the combined result of an exquisite taste in the arrangement of the various articles exposed forsale In the windows, and a delightful harmony of color.
step from the sidewalk, and on a level with the floor of the establishment, i 1 pavement of white mnrblc,'extending the whole length of the front, and relieved by a diamond figure, consisting of small rose-tinted and yellow blocks of the same material. The windows, which are light and stately, are, with the doors, composed of solid sheets of French plato glass; nnd as we enter the store, especially by gas light, the whole scene bursts upon us liko some fairy creation, or the sp'cndid vision of some hashish cater. Ten superb chandeliers illuminate the immense palace from one end of it to the other, in all 275 feet, from Broadway into Crosby Street.
) It is divided into two compartments, wholesale and retail, the partition being as near as may be in the middle, with offices on each side, which arc spanned by an arch, inscribed with the words, “ Wholesale Department.” The blaze of light from the windows, charged with the brilliant color* of the liquid in the large globes, adds vastly to the attraction of the scene by night, and illuminates tho adjacent walls and counters with a surprising brilliance of crimson, purple, green, and amber.
Jt This establishment was begun and finished in five days. To look at it, it seems incredible ; and more especially so when it is examined in detail. The walls extending over half the retail hall are adorned all along the ceiling to the two first pillars with a scries of twenty-eight moulded arches, fourteen on each side. These rest upon an elaborate moulding, supported by elegant pillars with ornamented capitals overlaid with gold, and the roof also is richly painted and fretted with gold. The shelves arc divided into a number of ranges, each of which is backed by French mirrors* Then como tho counters, eight in all, composed of solid marble throughout, the top slabs supported by richly carved brackets starred with gold, and having two square compartmentson tho side faces, each one of which bears the inscription “II. T. H y
> Indeed, throughout the establishment there is a harmony of form, color, and disposition." A lavish hand has been at work in all the departments, nnd this marble palace is one more proof of the swift witchery whereof money is capable.
Tho remaining portion of the walls, from the first pillars to tho partition which divides tho wholesale and retail stores, arc stained with an elegant French gray, upon which is painted, in a very beautiful and elaborate mosaic work of the most exquisite colors, a scries of immense bfltagons, in doublo gold bend frames. Theoffice compartment is marked off at the second pillar by a black walnutrail, and besides the luxurious desks nnd chairs for the use of the officials, there is a complete dressing-room set at the service of visitors and customers.
Just before the entrance of the office stands an octagonal glass case, surmounted by a small pyramidal case, containing Eau dc Cologne, nnd all the rarest French essences, extracts, nnd per- fumes. On each side of this raised case arc two figures of ebonynegroes, each with his ri"ht hand raised, and intended to bear a lamp or vase, according to the taste of the owner. These statues were brought, as we understand, from the French Exhibition, and are quite the rage as drawing- room ornaments among pcopic of wealth and fashion in that capital. Such in rapid outline is a descriptionof Dr. Ilelmbold's new place of business. It is worthy of the merchant princes of New York, although It is not at all Improbable, from the continued and incessant expansionof the Doctor's business, that he may yet have to throw his wholesale store Into the retail, and let the former take care of itself in some other convenient placc.—Editorial N.

Not only so, but no one of these various female complaintscan longbe suffered to run on without involv- ingthc general health of the individual, and ere long producing permanent sickness and premature decline. Nor is it i leasant to consult a physician for, the relief-of these various delicate affections, and oidyupon the most urgent necessity will a true woman so far sacrifice her greatest charm as to do this. The sex will then thank ns for placing in their hands simple specifics which will be found efficacious in relieving and curing almost every one of those troublesome complaints peculiar to the sex. IIELMBOLD'S EXTRACT BUCIIU.—Hundreds suffer on in silence, and hundreds of others apply vainly to druggists and doctors, who either merely tantalize them with the hope of a cure, or apply remedies which make them worse. I would not wish to assert anything that would do in- justice to the affiictcd, but 1 am obliged to say that, nlthough it may be produced from excessive exhaustion of tho powers of life, by laborious employment, unwholesome air and food, profuse menstruation, theuse of tea and coffee, nnd frequent childbirth, it is far oftener caused by direct irritation, applied to the mucous membrane of the vagina itself. When reviewing the causes of these distressing complaints, it is most painful to contemplate tho attendant evils consequent upon them. It is but simple justice to the subject to enumerate a few of themany additional causes which so largely affect tne life, health, and happiness of women in all classes of society, and which, consequently, affect more or less directly the welfaie of the entire human family. The mania that exists for precocious education and marriage, causes the years that nature designed for corporeal development to be wasted nnd perverted in the restraints of dress, theearlyconfinement of school, nnd especially in the unhealthy excitement of the ballroom. Thus, with the body half clothed, and the mind unduly excitedby pleasure, perverting, in midnight revel the hours designed by nature for sleep and rest, the work of destructionishalf accomplished. In consequenceof this early strain upon her system, unnecessaryeffort isrequired by thedelicate votary to retain her situation in school at a later day, thus aggravating the evil. When one excite- ment is over, another in prospective keeps the mind morbidly sensitive to impression, while the now constantrestraint of lashiounhlc dress, absolutely forbidding the exercise indispensable to the attainment and retention of organic health nnd strength; the exposure to night air; the sudden chui aUbf temperature; thecomplete prostration produced by excessive dancing, must, of neces- sity, produce tlielr legitimate effect. At last an earlymarriage caps the climax of misery, and the nnfortnnatc one, hitherto so utterly regardless of the plain dictates and remonstrance* of her deli- cate nature, becomes nn unwilling subjectof medical treatment. This is but a truthful picture of the exi>erienco of thousands of our young women. _,ong before the ability to exercise the functions of the generative organs, thevrequire nn educa- tion of their peculiar nervous system, composed of what is called the tissue, which is, in common with the female breast and lips, evidently under the control of mental emotions andassociations at an early p -riod of life ; and. as we shall subsequently sec, these emotions, when excessive, lend, long before puberty, to Habits which sap the very life of their victims ere naturehas self-completed their development.

HELMBOLD^S CONCENTRATED EXTRACT BUCIIU IS THE GREAT DIURETIC. Helmbold’s Concentrated Extract Sarsaparilla is the Great Blood Purifier. The Proprietor trusts that his Remedies, although advertised, may not be classed as Patent Medicines—most of which are prepared by self-styled Doctors, who, in many instances, are too ignorant to read a Physician’s simplest prescription, much less com- petent to prepare Pharmaceutical Preparations. For the satisfaction of all, See Medical Properties contained in Dispensatory of the United States, of which the following is a correct copy : “ and BUCIIU.—Its odor is strong, diffusive, somewhat aromatic , its taste is bitter- ish, and analogous to that of mint.

Two tablespoonfuls of IIelmbold’s Extract of Sarsaparilla added to a pint of water is equal to the Lisbon Diet Drink, and one bottle is equal to a gallon of Sarsapa- rilla, or the decoctions as usually made. Both are prepared according to the rules of Pharmacy and Chemistry, and are the most active that can be made. XKgfct the Cape of Good Hope the Hottentots have long used BTJCHTJ for a V variety of Diseases. It was borrowed from those rude practitioners by the English and Dutch physicians, on whose recommendation it was employed in Europe, and has now come into general use. It is given chiefly in gravel, chronic catarrh of the bladder, morbid irritation of the bladder and urethra, for female weakness and debility, for prolapsus and bearing down, or prolapsus uteri, diseases of the prostate gland, retention or incontinence of urine, and all diseases requiring the aid of a diuretic, arising from a loss of tone in the parts concerned in its evacuation. It is also recommended in cases of dyspepsia, chronic rheumatism, cutaneous affections, and dropsy. To cure these diseases we must bring into action the muscles which are engaged in their various functions. To neglect them, however slight may bo the attack, is sure to affect the bodily health and mental powers. Our flesh and blood arc supported from these sources. Persons at every period of life, from infancy to old age, and in every state of health, are liable to be subjects of these diseases. The causes, in many instances, are unknown.
