State Review publishes the following wouderlul story. .We are very much disposed to doubt its authenticity. "Two years ago last pulliri-fouder lime, uncle Josh B. had a buck thai was sort of bro't op iu the lot and about the house, unci the boys had by fooling with him learned him to "butt" as hard as a mule could kick and "butt" he would at every thing that came in his way, until it eeented as il he would "butt" every thing off the lot. So uncle Josh concluded to see if he couldn't give hint bis lull butting-. Out he goes and takes big hickory, maul and hangs.it pretty well up in an oak tree, letting it hang just low enough lor Mr. Buck to take a fair crack at it. He kue'w that he would make at any thing pushed towards him, taking such move always aa. a banter Uncle -.Josh wailed oatieutlv until the Buck came round, when he gives thetgnal, and here he came with a "vim," that it would have knocked down a bull! Away flew maul,-and back, bounded the bnck! Go it, my good fellow 'sing i uncle josh. Il you' can whip, that maul, your head's a hard un. Seeing' the motion of the maul, as it commenced its. return swing the; buck met it again about the meeting place," driving the maul some twenty feet in the air bouncing from it himself like a cricket ball! Hurra my little woolley! says Uncle Josh, -who began to get interested in. what he considered ait unequal fight there's very little sheep in your head if you stand another lick, certain. But here " conies buck and maul agau, with nearly the same result as belere, except ihe blow didn't seem quite so heavy ou the part of the buck At htm again hard head! sings out Uncle Josh, take i your fill at butting: and at him again the little tellow went, and kept repeating until Uncle Josh thought the very devil was hi the head of the sheep sure enough.' But back went the uiaul, and butt went the buck, and to the astonishment ot Uncle Josh, the buck showed no signs of quittiug .still. , Well, says he if you choose to bull your own brains out, why go ahead. Whack, whack l; went head and maul. By this time it was nearly night and no sign of quilting, und Uncle Josh lelt. Ntxt morning he got up early and looking out be saw the maul and the '-buck's tail hopping at il," being ail that were left of the butt ing "Duct." . . - WOMAN'S VOICE.. V ' , How consoling to the mind oppressed lv heavv sorrow, is the voice ol an amiable woman.- Like sacred music, it imparts to the soul a feeling ot celestial serenity, and as a gentle Zepyar'refreshes the wearied senses with its soft and melifiuous tones. Riches may avail much in the hour of affliction, the friendship of man may alleviate for a time the bitterness of woe; but the angel voice ot woman is capable of produciug a lasting effect on th? bean and counuuuicates a sensation of delicious composure which the mind never before experienced, even in the moments of itshighest felicity. 1 GOODlr READ IT! The ladies of New York, have renolved to marry no man who does not take the uewsnantra and furthermore, they won't allow a fellow to look at the,m who ewes.the printer for more than one year's subscription. ; Well, I don't wonder. A family 'without a newspaper are always 6a If . an age behind Jhe times in general information. Besides, they can never think mueh, nor find much 'to talk about "And then there are the little-ones growing up in ignorance with no taste for readinz. BesTde all these evils, there's the wife, "who when her work is done, has to sit down with her hands in her lap. and nothing tot amuse her, or divert her mind from the toils and cares ol the domestic circle. OhT dear! be on vour guard, girls, imitate the example of the noble and thoughtful ladies of IX ew lorn, ;: v-i .-- . .WHEN THE BLOOD IS IN AN UNSOUND CONDITION it is as ready for infection, as land ploughed and harrowed lo receive the allotted grain. Those who'are wise will therefore com mence the purification of their blood without deJay : and , those who are already attacked with 'sickness should do the same. Bbandbrth's Pills are an effectual puntver of the blood, as thou sands of persons ean testify-who continue to cure themselves ol Colds; Coughs, Headaches, Rheumatic Affections, Liver Complaints, Costiveness and the host of those indications of the body oi the blood's being out of order, simply by persevering! using Brandreth's Vegetable Universal Pills, iemales will find them to secure that state of health which every mother wishes to. enjoy. Tho weak,' th feeble,' the nervous arid the delicate, are in a few days strengthened by the use Of BRANDRETH'S PILLS, and the worst of complaints are effectualy removed by perseverence without the expense of a physician. These pi lis are sold by DAN 1 EL WOOLSEY t Evansville, la., and by Agents iu most of the villages in the United Stales. ug7,'4S-12ai$lO. B. BRANDRETH, M. D.

J., April 20, 1843 - On or about the 13th day of Dec. 1641, 1 was taken with a violent pain in the side near the Liver which continued" lor about five days, and was toiioweu Oy t lie oreaKtng ot an ulcer, or something inward ly, which relieved the pain I little, but caused me to throwing a great quanti ty of matter and also much blood. Being great ly alarmed at this, I applied to a physician, but he'said he thought he could do but little for me except give me some Mercury Pills, which Ire fused 4o lake, felling satisfied they could do me uo good; many other remedies were then procured by my wife and friends, and none did me any good, and the discharge ol blood and corruption still continued every few days, and at last beeame so offensive I could .scarcely breathe. I was also seized with a violent cough, which at times caused me to raise much more blood than I had dune before, -an u my disease contin ued in this way, still growi ng worse; until t ebruarjywhen all hope of niy recovery was given up, aud my friends all thought I would die with a galloping Consumption. At this .moment, when uiy lite was apparently benig brought to an cud, 1 heard of Dr. V istar's Balsam ot Wild Cherry, and got a bottle, which relieved me immediately, and by the use of only three bottles, ol this medicine, nil my pains were removed my cough and spitting of blood and corruption entirely stopped, a nd in a few weeks my health was so fur restored as to enable nie to work at my trade, which is a carpenter, and up to ihis. time I have enjoyed good health. , . , Witness: I am acquainted with Mr. Thomas Cozens, and having seen him during his illness, I think the above statement entitled to full credit. . . :; -8. 11.

December 1, 1843 iuessrs. jostin A. uowe: Anotit t.ve years ago; Mrs. Wnner w6s attacked with a violent Cough, pain in the chest and side, and synitoms ol approachm consumption. Dunn the inter val Irom that time lo some time in February last she lias been treated by eminent physicians with only partial relief bf the most urgent Symplons. A bom one year a;o, sbo caught a most violent cold, which suated upon, the lungs, producing an alarming aggravation of all her previoussy mptons. Her physician was sent lor and despite his beBt efforts, she began rapidly to sink under this disease. Cough, Ex pectoration, Hectic together with night sweais, soou reduced her to a complete sueletou. , 4,u t ebruary ..last, , her attending Physician, deeming her case altogether hopeless, a council was called, and alter de!iba orating upon her case, unanimously pronounced her lo be beyond ihe reach- of means,, and expressed their opinion that she could survive but a short time, one to two weeks at farthest'. She was at this lime entirely confined to' her bed, and scarcely able to articulate,' except in a whisper. Her daily paroxysms of coughing would last her uninterruptedly from 3 to 5 hours, and so severe were they, that we. did expect that every paroxysm would be the.last. ' It was Rtthis last ex tremity that we happened to obtain a phamphlet, describing Doctor W istar's Balsam ot Wild Cherry, as applicable to the lung affections. I immediately sent to you and procured a bottle, and commenced its use at evening by giving her one teaspoon full, and such was its ultimate effect, that after taking five bottles, she was, contrary to the expectations of her physicians, and every one who saw her, ehlirely restored to Health ! and since last summer, has done the entire work ol her family. Alter the last attack of Mrs. Winter, our youngest child, -'then an- infantat the breast, was taken down, and rapidly sinking with the same symptoms as its mother, aud seeing the happy eff'ec t ot the Balsam in the case of the mother, we were disposed to make trial of it foi the child, and it was attended with the same per feet success. - - ; : The above statement can be attested by out physicians as well as our neighbors and acquaintances, who saw Mrs. Wimer during the course of her sickness.
