HNH1S new and healing BalSdrn
bids fair to rival every Medicine here
tofore discovered, for Coughs and complaints
of the lungs, leading to Consumption, and
even in seated Consumptions it has lately been
used by many, with the most surprizing sue
cess. If Certificates from persons of the high
est responsibility, or the great and increasing
demand for it may be called proof of its good
effects, it is proved. Scarcely a case of Colds,
Coughs, pain in the side, difficulty of breath
ing, want of sleep, arising from debility, or
even Con2umptions, but may be relieved by
the timely use of this Medicine. Many
certificates of its efficacy accompany each
bottle.
CGution.--Be particular that every genuine
bottle has (" .Anderson's Cough Drops stamp
ed on the bottle; and the directions are all
signed by JAMES MELLEN.
For the further satisfaction of the Publick,
the following Certificates are offered for PEE

and my former strength restored. attribute
my relief entirely to the use of these Drops !;
and can, with confidence, recommend them
to all such as are afflicted with coughs and
complaints of the lungs, or weakness of the

Aammation of the liver, which caused an adj

and bowed down, and lost all hope of ever
being any better. About the first of last Oc-

REPORT

Ofthe Managers ofthe Female Sunday
School Society, of Edqvardsville, made
on the Cd Of august, 1921.
After an experiment of something
more than year we have reason to &C.
knowledge the goodness of God in ma
ny circumstances connected with the
school under our charge, although we
are compelled at the same time to OBJ
serve that we have met with some dis
appointments.
Soon after the school had commenced
operation in the last summer, the preva-
lence of sickness, by preventing many,
both teachers and scholars, from at
tending, checked our progress, and we
had to regret, for several months, the
entire cessation of the school.
At length however, we were enabled
to recommence our operations under
more favorable auspices. Two schools
have now for some months been open
regularly on the Sabbath, and have been
attended, as we believe, with pleasure by
those who are most in need of instruc-
ton.
1t is with peculiar pleasure we state
that one of these is for the exclusive
benefit of coloured people, who attend
with great regularity and receive with
gratitude and delight that instruction,
which 1--WE would observe) cannot other
wise be easily afforded them. There is
however a deficiency in the number of
teachers, particularly for the anxious
Africans. We hope that the benevolent
will come forward and contribute by a
trifling exertion to open the minds, and
correct the morals of portion Of our
race which by series of expressions
has been dsOased TO a grade OF isn0-

Accounts from Madrid are to the 23d
of May. They represent the whole OF
Spain to be in tranquil state, in conse-
quence of the vigorous measures OF the
government, who had obtained possess
sion of all the plans of the ultra royalIsts
to overturn the constitution. The pre-
sent session of the Cortes was about to
be prorogued, and an extra session called,
for the express purpose of defeating the
attempts of the ultras, who had been
busy endeavoring to obtain the return,
at the next election of anti constitutional
members.

rance and vice, from which nothing but
the benignant efforts of moral instruction
can arouse them.
Our Treasurer reports the following
as the state of the funds:
Cash received on the subscription pa.
per 1928 IS
Amount expended for books for the
use of school as per vouchers 10 IS
Leaving balance on hand of S18 90
There are other subscriptions yet due
and we doubt not that sufficient sum
to defray the trifing expenses incident to
the school will at all times be readily
obtained.
Before we close our report we beg
leave to suggest plan by which we con-
ceive, that the object may be more vigo-
rously, and more steadily pursued than
under our present form.
lst That the subscribers and others
feeling an interest in the institution,
should meet together at an early day,
and re-organize by preparing bye-laws
in addition to the constitution for the
government of the society.
I'd. That a regular annual subscrip-
ton of one dollar, shall be substituted for
The present system of occasional contri-
button.
3rd. That each subscriber shall be a
member of the society-and
4th. That the society shall no longer
| be confined to females.
From this outline we conceive, that
our intention will be manifest, and that
the liberal minded will cheerfully unite
their efforts with us.
Although the progress of this society
has been silent, it has not been without
good effect; and we trust, relying for
preservation and guidance on Him who
has given the order i" feed my lambs"
that this society will be found, not many
years hence, to have produced effects
gratifying to the heart of the philanthro-
pist, and of lasting benefit to the reci-
pients.

mitted by Corporal Trim, eli any other
honest undisciplined officer of that grade;
but should it happen to be genuine
military maneeuUre, or as Frenchman
would say, a ruse de guerre, an officer
at least as high in command as we'll
disciplined Sergeant, should have the
credit Of SO admirable design. We
hope, however, it is an honest blunder.
We have received several letters,
some Of which are anonymous, from diff
ferent counties, in consequence ofhaving
inserted an essay on " Unlicensed Doc
tors, alias Quacks," over the signature
of Gan Observer" If there are any
persons within the circle of our readers
to whom those observations are applica-
BILE, we were ignorant of the fact. From
the general character of the piece, and
our acquaintance with the author, we are
inclined to believe that he had no parti-
cular individuals in view while writing
it; but as it has been applied in SO many
places to and by so many persons, and
to so many authors, it would appear that
there is something" rotten in the state oil
Denmark" which the Observer has
probed.
As specimens of the feelings of the
individuals offended, we insert the fol-
lowing letters, without knowing whe-
Their they were intended by the writers
for publication, or for our own use. The
first is given verbatim, with the excep-
of the omission of few adiectives, such
as should never escape the lips Of any
man, much less appear in print.

BY the arrival of the brig Joseph,
captain Morris, in 26 days from Bor-
deaux, we have received French papers
to the 9th of June. The intelligence
which they contain from Turkey, has
been principally anticipated by prior ar
rivals from Europe. 1t is mentioned,
that the Pacha Of Belgrade had sent an
extraordinary messenger to the different
commandants of the province, requiring
them to proceed forthwith to CONSTANT
nople; but that they had refused to COM
ply, under a conviction that it was in
tended by the Sultan to decapitate them.
1t is added, that the officers had since
opened correspondence with the chiefs
of the Greeks, and issued proclamations
calling upon the Servians to arm against
the Porte.

IS IN honest man 5 tie modest pork of God.o
And among the most honest men, which this
or any other country has ever produced, was
CONRAD WILL, who departed this lif. on
the 28th ult. after a severe illness Of eight
weeks, occasioned by a dropsy Of the abdomen.
To judge of the affection, which the citizens
OF jackson county bore towards him, il would
be necessary to be at his funeral; for it may
truly be said that his grave was believed by
the tears ofthe people. And well they might
deplore their loss; for byhis death an honest
man is removed from their councils who in the
various characters of Legislator, .gagisfrate.
fudge, Recorder, member Of the Contention, &c.
always filed these Offices with honor 10 him
self and advantage to thelpublic. BY his death
q large family Of seventeen children (whichhe
had by four different wiyes) has to deplore the
loss of a tender and inSlulgent parent, who
taught them tlenoblest moral principles, both
by Preccpt and example !; and by his death
his county has been deprived of man, who
was never known to forfeit his word. In adj
