a MEDICINE extremely uscfiil for curing
iaundicy and bilious disorders, and removing
that sinking, faint and distressed feeling at
ihe stomach, difficulty Of breathing, loss of
appetite, and sleepy, dull heaviness in the fore
part of tie day, weakness and trembling Of the
limbs, dizziness of the head, and yellowness
of countenance, complaints so common to
jamdicy and bilious people.
The many cures that have been effected in

the United States, having had in the course of
the last year, a much greater number of win

winners of purses and sweepstakes, in The
Spring and Fall of 1912, three of which Colts
were the winners of the Jocky Club Purses, at
the following Race Grounds--at the City of

KENTUCKY.

There ware seven hundred barrels of Corn,
besides Crop OF Wheat, Oats and Tobacco,
made on it last year. This Land is very pro-
dpctive when in Wheat, and the great competi
ton in the Wheat Market lit being within or
6 miles offive or six good Manufacturing Mills }
keeps the price of that article very near (and
| am told) sometimes above the Richmond
price. The great demand for Corn, Oats,
Hay, &c. at the extensive Coal Pits, within ten
and twenty miles thereof, at which are regu-
larly employed about 500 bands, and from !.
100 to $50 Wagons, keeps the price of
those articles very bIgh. The Land is well
watered, especially with good Springs; and
the neighbourhood, with propriety may be said,
TO be as healthy, and in every other respect as
desirable as any in Virginia.
With such advantages, it forms an object
worthy the attention of person desirous of
vesting money in property Of that description,
particularly citizen OF Richmond or Man
chester, who wants a Summer Retreat.
MIR. William A. Cooke, wholives adjoining,
and is well acquainted herewith, win sb CIV
the Land to any person who wishes TO pur-
chase.

season the same TO be secured by a note, to
be sent with each marc but the note may

any time within the season, Which will expire
on the first day of July. The Groom fee will

benefit of extensive pasturage, but no RESPONSE.
biiity for escapes or accidents. They will be
supplied with provender at 30 cents per day.
provided the money is sent with the mares.
otherwise it cannot be had, servants whs at.
tend the mares will be boarded at the rate OF
81 rs per week.
CHANCE, from his performances and his
real character, is inferior to no horse ever inn
ported 10 America, and therefore ought to
stand as high, but the situation of our coun
try at this time induces the Subscriber to re
duce The sum and make the payment of it as
easy rs possible to those who may think pro.
per to raise from this elegant and valuable
stock. CHANCE was selected in England by
the best Judges, for John Tayloe, Esq. of
Mount Airy, at very high price, and was
landed only few months ago in Philadelphia
He is the Sire of Grimalkin, Spectator, Ac-
S'ocht, SCailss Colt, finance, &c. &c. all first
rate runners now on the British turf as may
be seen by reference to the racing calendars.
CHANCE is handsome hay of great size,
prettily marked, and was tr,:e honest racer.
At Doncaster, in 1900 he won the sclCO plate,
beating Sir solomon, Haphazard, Sportsman,
Hyacinthus, &c.
At York Spring Meeting, 1901, he won so
two male heats, beating Honeycomb, Trum-
peter, &c.
AT Doncaster, he won the Doncaster Stakes
OF 10 guineas each, Is subscribers, with 90
guIneas added, four miles, beating Hyacn-
thus, Cockfghter, &c. and the same day, he
won the Gold Cup, four miles beating Sir So
lomon, Champion, and Attainment, and at
Nation IN 1902, at 8st 5lb he won Sweep
stakes oil 90 guincas each, 9 subscribers, two
mile heats, beating Sir solomon, years
