At the present wilting, there are
two members of the extensive But

may be remarked that they are em
inently worthy of the historic name

disputes the claim of cither to lin

been strongly hinted, however, by
a Yjrgiqia editor, that one of them
is genablogically connected with
the unrepeutant thief, who, was
crucified with our Saviour.. The
body of which these Congress

bers, affords them an abundance of
congenial companionship, and a
gratifying appreciation of their ge
nealogical virtues. 1
One ot these Butlers has been
commemorated in song and story.
In works of biography, epic and

It is hardly an exaggeration to say
that the English language has been
exhausted in the vain effort to char
acterize the Massachusetts Butler,
The Bodleian library would not ac
commodate the various literary at
tempts, sentimental, didactic, mor
al, religious, poetical, critical, com
prehensive and analytical, in this
direction, nor would the Homerie
catalogue of ships exceed the list of
epithets and sobriquets, by which it
has been sought to typify the vari
ous traits of his character, incidents
of his career and features of his per
son. xne conceded vituperative
talent of 31r;"Brick" Pomeroy has
recoiled from this task, with an ac
v vkhowledgement bit impotent endeav
or. Though Mr. Pomeroy has him
self added a complete dictionary of
original epithets to the English lan

fails to apply to the peerless Butler
anything stronger than "

inadequate to the demands of the

; PAIN KILLER.
We aak attentlan ta this Unrivaled
FAMILY MEDICINE.
The Paih Kulxr is, by universal con-
sent, allowed to have won for itself a
reputation unsurpassed in the history of med-
icinal preparations. Its instantaneous effect
in the entire eradication" and extinction of
Patn, in all its various forms incidental to the
human family, and the unsolicited written
and verbal testimony of the masses in its
favor, have been, and are, its own best adver
tisement. " -.
For evidence in favor of the Paiv Kjiauk for
Ministers' Sore Throat or Bronchitis, read the
following: -v
GxxTSi The Pain Killer has been a constant
occupant of our house for over two years, and
a portion of the time it has been the only
medicine under our roof. Hardly ever do I
have my children complain of being sick wi th
orn naving inein as in ine same sentence ior
Pain Killer.
For several years before I became acquaint
ed with the Pain Killer, I had suffered a great
deal from an affection in my throat, thought
by some physicians to be Bronchitis, by others
to be what fs called Ministers' Sore Throat.
At one time it was bo severe that I was obliged
to give up preaching. Within a few months
after 1 had become acquainted with the Pain
Killer, I had another attack from that dis
tressing complaint. I tried my new-found
meiiclii(, and, to my astonishment and de
light, it produced a wonderfully soothing ef
fect. In a short time I was wholly relieved.
Since that time I have had a number of attacks
of the same nature, and te Pain Killer lias
always afforded me relief. About one year
since, my wiie oecaine suujeci o severe suf
fering from Uhenmatisui ; our resort, as usual,
was to the Pain Killer, which would alwavs
relieve her. . .
I have not time now to nav more, as I could
with a hearty good will, and always have
done, in praise of the I'ain Killer. If this
hastily-written letter, in commendation of
Perry Davis' valuable medicine, will be of any
service, you are at liberty to do with it as you
piease. v ery xruiy yours,
