The stepmother treated John Jacob binUj.aad be resolre-l to leave for a , ' nor) pleasant locality. lie bad beeo well educated by Valentine Jenne, the village scboolmaster, a French Protestant, but had only a crown or two in Ml pocket, aod a bundle" of clothe ia a handkerchief, wheu ia lb year 1 "SO leu boat, Aatric being hit ultimate destination, though he intended firtt to visit hi t. brother Georg ia Loudon, lie worked bie way ' dewn the Kbiatoa a raft, and trrirej eta Dutch - seaport with a larger earn ot mot, raised at ' the oar, than be had ever before posaeased. Oo , reaching London, bit brother found hioa employto eat ' probably in his own manufactory, lie there learned to speak Eor,üah)äuent1v,tbugb to tbt cod of bis day bit accent wit snmittakably ' German. Hit waget were trail!, but be wit , ery saving, aod hi a ioduatry ia obtaining loformation about America indefatigable. In Sep tetatoer. J783, be bad a jrood unit of Sunday

clothe aod fifteen guinea, the result of two j, t tari of unremitting toil. At soon at peace bad been concluded with the United States by the recognition of their independence by England, Attor made preparations to tail for the land of protsire. . In November be paid fire of bit guineas for a steerage passage. He invested fire more guineas 'lathe purchase of teven flute, and, with the third fire as bit money capital, set sail. For -two months tbt vessel was ice-bound in Cbe-a-peakt bay, and the passengers were fed on rery short rations. This delay, bowerer, prored rery fortuaatt for Attor. A German f el low -passenjrer who bad mad good bargains with the In- , diana la the parcbtse of furs, which he had taken ', to England and sold at a beary profit, was re- " Corning to get stock for a second renture of the kind. He gare Attor rauch information about bis business snd. adrUed him to follow hU example, i'hla be resolved to do. In March, . 1164, the let broke op, and the vessel reached - Baltimore. The long detention, and the journey to New York, nearly exhansted Aator's money, , aad bis wits aad bis' seren flutes were his chief capital. Oo arriring at New York he found that - bis brother Henry was laboring under embarra.'st taentt, which, bowerer. prored temporary. He could do but little for the new comer. The latter was not a man to gire way to despair. He at once entered the employ of Robert Boune, a ' Qaaker. who bought, dealt in, and exported peltries. The wages paid were $2 a week and board. Bj bis industry and intelligence the joun beginner soon thoroughly learned bis employer's business aod gained bis good will. He was poon intrusted with more important business than beating furs, and made, in bis stead, a journej t Montreal, then the chief fur mart in North America. Returning with his furs, he employed the Indians in transporting them to the Hudson, down which he brought them ia a sloop. He speedily learned the art of trading with the abor igines, aod cerer could raise superior to the habits of bard bargaining, which he acquired in

hte dealiaga with them. Aator did not long remain in Mr. Boune's employ. In 17b6, in a little shop in Water street, with a back room, a yard aod a s!J. the ehop furnished with only a few toys and trinkets, he began business for himself. He had then the most unbounded confidence in bis abilities. He was sure of getting rich, though, as he remarked vla his old age. "Tbe first hundred thousand dollars that was bard to get; but afterwards it was easy to make more " At firtt be did all bis work himself He bought, cured, beat, picked aod sold his skins. At the proper seasons of the year, with hit pack on bis back, he mule stout excursions into tbe country, collecting skins from bouse to bouse, gradually extending tbe area of his trarels, till he knew the state ot New York as no man of bis day knew it. He early BCtri tbt Spots which be thought would one day beesae business centres, and Kochesterand Buffalo afterwards established the keenness of bis , dircrraaent. His firtt royage to Loudon with tzz3 established bis business on a solid foundl!a. One of tbe result of this was to make an arrwssient with Astor & Broidwood, of Lon- " don, by which he became their New York sgent : for the sate of piano, violins and flutes. He ' wntht first man in New York who constant!? kept fur sal a supply of mutical instruments Oa his return from Enghnd he moved to a little ding? store in Gold street, where he swung out tbe sin Furs and Pianos." Ia I7y0 be married Sarah Todd, whose coo oection with the Breroort family, and s little 'fortune ot $300 gare bim a better social statu aad a small additional capital. She prored a ferr industrious snd faithful helpmate. About 1 1794 be became able to purchase a ship, in which bis fur wer carried to London, and ia , which bt occasionally made royages himself. In London he became connected with tbe operations of the Ettt India Companr and the Chinese trade. China was then the best market for furs. In 1860 b sent his first renture to Can--ion, snd continued to carry oa commerce with China for twenty teren years. In 1500. when be bad been in business about fifteen years, he was worth a quarter of a million, an astonishing amount when the disadran;taget ander which be commenced operations are considered. He bad, bowerer, wonderful genius, and now, as through bis whole life, was fingularly frugal. His luxuries were a pipe, a glst of beer, a game of draughts, a ride on horseback. nd the theatre. He held in otter canfenpt the dashing mode o( life of many New York merchants, and abhorred note sharing and stockjobbing. Nererthe'e be was co plodder when ploddins; bad ceased to be necessary. ' H was rery mean. He once !ot the services o&e of the bet Captains and $70,000 into tbe bargain, by refusing to pay for a chronometer which the captain said his ship needed. Tbe captain left bis service snd went into that of another house. He ran a cargo of teas into New York just seren dars after ore belonging to Mr. Attor arrired. Astor not expecting an other ship to snire for months, hid made no hurry to sell hi cargo, an J before be had got ready to dispose of it. a second ship luv J coming la glutted the market, and Astor lou all the pro fits of the royage, which he htdciimtte l at 't.OOO. Meeting the captain h;rtly after in Broadway, he said : I htd better hvre pvd yoa for that chronometer of yours " He was afterwards glad to get the Captain back into tbe serrice The ssme c.iptain afterwards aared Mr. Astor $700.000 Astor's agent in China had died with tha amount of bis principal's property in his han'i The cp tain, who was in Cauton at the time, well knew that if this immense property fell into the po session of the Celes'.ial official, rot one dollar , if it would erer reach America By a series of bold measures be secured ibe money, and nude it yield a profit to the owner. Mr. Astor ae know led red the serrice. He siid many times : If you had not done just as you did, I should cerer have seen one djllar of my money ; uo. not one dollar of it ; bat he rrer paid him for his services, though the cptaiu bd to support his wife and children on a salary of one hundred dollars a moo ;h, and h i employer was worth tea millions. " Onif, lo, he gare one of bis captains im mecse trouble to get two pipe of Maderia wine trum under a cargo of lets, which he was tending to AmterJaoi fur a market. It look two das to disinter the cW He promised the captain a fcdem jun ot wine for bis trouble, but he 'never .got It. Once afterward the captain reminded him o! bis promise. "Ah." said As'or, don't you kaow ihe reaaon? It irt fcr.e ret; wait till it irets fine, and you'll say you nerer UtUdluch Maderia. The caf taiii waited, but never berd of the wine scaio. It wa neither fur nor tea that gar him $20 000.000 When he arrired in New York it co&Ui&ed only 26.000 UhibiULtt Iu ?V, when be bgan to bar money to invest, tbe dry tad bsjua to docbl la population, nod had ' timed at uly to a &Ht s? tbt !s!ai.

Attor formw itt fsterwgrowtL, s&d boegbt sll the lots and Tacdt just berond the verge of tbe city that he could get. One little anecdote will thow tbe vUdoa cf this proceeding. He sold alalia Wall strett in H10 tor $9.000, which wtt Bopcosed to be tocaewbat coder Iu value. Tbe purchaser, after tbt papers were algned. seemed disposed to chuckle orer bis bargain. "Why. Mr. Astor' said be, "this lot will be worth $12.090." "Very true," replied Aator; "but now rou ihall see whtt I will do with this money. With eight thousand dollars I bay eighty lots above Canal streets. Br the time vour lot it worth $12.000, my eighty lots will be worth $J,000." which prored to be tbe fact. Ia tbecocr?e of time tbe Island was dotted all orer with Astor lands, to tuch an extent that the whole Income of bis estate for fifty years coald be invested in new houe, without buying any more land. In 10U core tbaa even hundred families were residing In one-third ot Putnam county. New York, on firms, the titles of which were giren by the state. The Und originally belonged to a family earned Morris, who were tories, and their estates was accnrdly confiscated. Astor discovered that Mr. sni Mrs Morris had only a life estate in the landa, and accordingly purchased lb rights of the heirs for $20,000 Mr. Morris was then dead, and hia widow was nearlv eighty, and rerv infirm. In a few years he commenced urging bis claims. There was, of course, great consternation in Putnam county. Commissioners were appointed bv the legislature to inrealigate the subject. Tbey atked him for what he would compromise, lie replied $300,000. This was refused The affair lingered on until 127, when a test case was brought to trial. Piniel Webster and Martin Van Buren were retained for the state. Emmet Ogden and Aaron Burr, the latter privately, were Mr. Astor's counsel. He won the suit, and ou receiring about a half a million of dollars, tbe title were secured to the occupants. We pass orer bis magnificent Astoriaa scheme, which, bowerer, grand in de?ign, was not a pecuniary success. Mr. Astor was a firm believer ia the destiny of the United Ststes. In other words, he held its public stocks in profound respect. He had little tosy of politics, but was a'supporterof the Whig party, and was nerer better pleased thin to hare Henry Clay at his hou:ie. Tbe last considerable sum he was known to give awsy was a contribution to aid in tbe election of Mr. Clay. When asked, he answered: "lam not interested in these things. I don't make money any more, and barn't sny concern in the matter." One of the committee replied: "Why, Mr. Astor, yoa are like Alexander, when be wept because 'here were no more worlds to conquer. You hare made all the money, and now there is no more money to make." The old eje twinkled at tbe bleuded compliment and jest. "Ha, ha, ha! very gocd; that's rery good. Well, well, I gire you something," whereupon he drew his check for $1.500. In 1&35, being in Europe, he sailed from Havre for New York. Headwinds snd boistrous seas kept the ves-el beating and tossing about in the channel for many days. The old man was both seasick and alarmed. He asked the captain to run in and land him on the coastof England. Tbe captain uiuaded bim, but be was urgent, and at last sid: "I give yoa a tousand dollars to put me aboard a pilot boat." The captain fioallj agreed to do so, provided they did not get out of the cbannel by the cext morning. : A wind sprang up during the designated time, and tbe vessel was safe out at sea. Another gale came up, however, and the ship was along the western coast of Ireland. ' Astor now offered the ciptain ten thousand dollars to put bim ashore on Emerald Isle. In vain tbe captain remonstrated. At list, the gale having somewhat abated, be yielded. Mr. Atter went into the cabia snd wrote whit was expected to

be a draft for ten thousand dollars n favor of the owners of the ship or agent in New York. 1 1 w. howerer, totslly illegible: What is this ?" asked tbe Captain A draft upon my eon for $10,000." " But noonecan read it." i " Oh ves. my son will know what it Is. Mv hand tremble sotbit 1 cannot write any better " "But," ssid the captain, "you can at least writo your own da me. Let one of the gentle men draw up a draft in the proper form; jou sien it and 1 will put you ashore. This he would not con? cot to do and so the aff air dropped. When off the coast of Newfound land two thirds of the way home the old gen tleman was still frightened, and screamed out to the captain who was hailing the other vessel: " Tell them I civ es towsand dollars if tbey takes a pssencer He lived till March 29, 1843, when he died in his bülh year. During a few years previous his mind had been seriously impaired. He was nursed like a child at a woman's breast, and tossed in a blinket for exercise. His property was mainly left to his own family, the greater part to his son, Wm. B. Astor, so as to keep it united. The whole estate was estimated at twenty mil lions, and is now probably double that amount. ?even hundred houses in New York city belong to Mr. Astor. Tbe chief legacy waone of $400,000 to found the Astor Library. The next largest $50.000 was bequeathed to his native vilUge of Waldorf, to found a home for poor people, and $30,000 w.t j left to the Uermin institution of Atv 1 ork To his old fr end and manager, Fitz Greene Melleck, the poet, he left the strange legey of $200 per annum for life. This snm Mr. W. B. Astor at once increased to $1,500. The same more liberal heir roluntarily gare to the sea captain. who bid sarel Mr. A-tor so much monev, a handsome eum of money, for be was not men tioncd in the old man's will. I. .

DR JOHN BULL'S coiipouivd i:i:iH!lli BITTERS. The Latest and XLohI I in portant Discovery 07 TBI NINETEENTH CENTURY ! ! ! 5a man's name Is mora intimately connected with the history of MATERIA MEDICA of tbo United States, or more favorably known as a pioneer la Medical Discovery than that of Dr. John Bull, of Louisville, Kent nek v a w Bis inimitable preparation of SAltSAPAItll,LA has long stood at the head of the various cotq. pounds ofthat valuable drug. His Compound of WILD CHERRY has become a household word throughout tbe West and Sooth. His Worm Loiengen, in less than a vear after their introduction, attained a reputation As wide spread as the continent of North America. But the crowDing glory of his life remains to be attained in bia discovery, or ratber combination, for he does not claim to have been the discoverer of CkrifJltU , which is the basis of the Bittet s cow offered to the public. That honor belonga to tbe native inhabitants of Centra America, to whom its virtues have been mown for more than two hundred years. Armed with iu the Indian bids defiance tn the most deadly malaria and j nandies witnout tear tbe most venomou serpents. Itir a belief with them, that while there Is breath in thebod.r the Cedron is potent to cure, no matter what the isea?' may be. While Dr. Bull is net prepared to endorse this eitrava fact pretension, he is nevertheless satisfied from a thorough examination of the evidence relating to its virtues, that as a remedy and preventative of all diseases arising from exposure, either to change of weather or clijitte, or to miasmatic influences, It stands WITHOUT A RIVAL! And Jastly deserves the reputation It has so long enjoyed in Central America and the West Indies. IN DYSPEPSIA And ita attendant train of symptoms. It acta mora LIKF. A CHAhM than a medicine. Tbere is nothing in the whole range of Materia Medica that can for a moment bear a comparison with it in this disease. A foil account of this wonderful plant may be found tn tbe 11th edition of the 17. S. Dipensatory( pages 137 and 1388. A series of experimenta in which Dr. Bull has been for years engaged, has Just been broucht to a successful termination, and b. ia row enabled to offer to tb public a combination of CEDKON with other approved tonics, tb hole preferred In the best quality of copper distilled Bourbon Whisky, which be ia co&fideut baa n equal ia the world. Ha might furnish a volume of certificates, bv' ab lie have long ainc. learned to estlma. sucht.-... their true ralua. Tha safest plan is for erery on to te for himself the virtues of a new medicine. GIVE tiii; GEDRON BITTERS ONE TRIAL, AKD TOU WUI 3ETKR CSK All OTHERS. It ia not necessary to publish a long list of diseases for which the CEDKUN BITTE KS ar a specific, la all diseases of the Bowels, Liver or Kidneys la all affections of the BKAIN, DEPENDING UPON DERANGEMENT OF TUE STOMACH OR BOWELS; -15G0ÜT.KUECMATISM AND NEURALGIA, AND IN FEVER AND AGUE.
