~ We take pleasure in bearing our hum
BILE testimony to the justice of the common
dation bestowed on Judge Thompson's Law
School, by the writer of the following article,
whose opportunities Of forming an opinion
have been most ample. We may further add,
that we never knew set of young men who
deported themselves with more propriety, or
who were apparently more devoted to their
studies, than the class at the last session.
This remark may seem uncalled for, and
would be certainly, if designed as mere COM
pliment to the young gentlemen themselves !;
but we consider the good name they have left
behind them as the property of the school,
and so speak of it.

Sick Headache Remedy

For the permanent cure Of this distressing
complaint never fails. When perseyered in,
il efeciualiy renovntes the system, and does
away the causes Of the SICK * NER POUSl
HEAD.iCHE. Thousands have tried il, and
found precisely the relief which tho article
promises TO bestow. Certificates OF the strong
est kind, and from the most respectable persons,
are in the possession Of the proprietor, some OF
which have been published, teslifying TO the per-
manent cure, and others TO the immediate ro-
lief given by this remedy. II affords relief TO
tho afflicted in l5 or 20 minutes from the first
dose. If taken when the symptoms Of an at
tack are first felt, it prevents the further pro-
gress Of The complaint, and can produce no dan
ger at any timo by an excessive dose as in such
a case it would only throw of the contents Of the
stomach, leaving il sweet aud healthy with an
excellent appetite. All afflicted with headache
should not fail TO procure and relieve lhemselve
from so distressing complaint.
Physicians have in many instances given il
to their patients, and in every instance, to our
knowledge, with great satisfaction have found
il certain cure. Sick and Nervous Head
ache is complaint with which physicians do
not wish TO have any thing 10 do, and generally
prescribe only for temporary relief consequent
