necessary to be made that the active principles Of
those vegetables might be retracted and reduced to
such form as makes them easy, safe and pleasant to

employed by all persons under all circumstances
They will at oil times be found servceable, when
the least sickness is present. They require no
change of Diet restraint from occupation, or fear of
taking cold from their use. They are daily prescrib

children, and had suffered the most tedious and ex-
cruciating pains during and after her confinement

much medicine, but found little or no relief. She
commenced taking the Persian Pills about three
months before her confinement cher health being ve
ry poor about this length of time previously and in
short time she enabled by their use to attend to
the cares of mother to hor family until her con-

Persian Pills, and for several weeks p evious she
was afflicted with a d'y hard cough, and frequent
cramps, which the use of the Pills entirely
removed before using half box 1t is with the
greatest confidence that we advise all those about to
become mothers to make use Of the Persian PiIls
All those that have taken them in our neighbor-

appear to be half the danger of other dangers setting
in after confinement, where these Pills are taken.--

The Resurrection, or Persian Piils.

The name of these pills originated from tho cir.
chmstance Of the medicine being found only in the
cemetdries Of Persia. This vegetable production
being OF peculiar kind, led to experiments as to
ita medicinal qualities and virtues. In half cen-
tury it became an established medicine for the dis
eases of that countryI The extract of this singu-
reproduction introduced into some parts Of Eh
rope in the year l7s3 and used by many celebrated
Physicians in curing Certain diseases, where all 9TH
er medicine has been used in vain. Early in the
year 1892, the extract was combined with certain
vegetable medicine imported from Dura Baca, in
the East Indies, and formed into Pills. The admir-
able effect of this compound upon the human sys-
tenn, led physicians and families into its general
use. Their long established character their univer-
sal and healing virtues the detergent and cleansing
qualities Of their specific action upon the glanduar
part of the system, such will sustain their re-
putatcn and general use in the American Repub-
lie.

I, Resolved, That slavery is SIN "o'e'''e

the Anti Slavery cause-for, as Chrisuanty, ID lis
o,r,v existence abolished the system OF slavery
,hore !, then exered its influence, So we trust the
dov 10 rapidIy approaching, when America will be
freed from its pollufions' ... ....
o Resolved, That, in view OF The former success
and of the present cheering prospects of Abolition
;s,, we devoutly give glory to God and take cour-
nno. still looking unto linn for direction in al! our
nans and operations, and praying that He would
hasten the day of its complete triumph.
3. Resolved, That have great encourage
ment to hope for the speedy abolition of slavery in
our land, from the fact that the of emancpa-
ton has so generally enlisted the sympathies and
influence of the female community.
A. Resolved, That il is not so much the imper-
fections and rashness of the abolions,s, as the du
plicity and esentaton of the political and
South against the anti slavery enterprise.
S. Resolved, That however much we approve
OF the American Union, disapprove Of Slavery
more; and if the former can exist only as we give
our sanction to the Inter- will meet the alter

a teef up half so fine as the body of that man

a beet up half 30 fine as the body of that man
was torn.
1t appears thar the unfortunate man was en-
gagged by the engineer TO work about The engine.
The engineer told him to oil the wrist between
the two fly wheels, and he (the engineer) would
stop the engine. Hewdoe (for that was his namej
without waiting for the engine to stop, went
back and attempted to pour the oil on the wrist
by TRUSTING his arm through the arms of the
wheel, and before the poor man could secure
himself, he WINS cas-, between the arms and the
staunchons, and killed, his entruils being
wound round the wheel, and his body legs and
arms torn and broken in pieces not larger than II
mans hand.
The carpenter was at work aft oflhe wheel.
and saw him attempt to put his arm between
those of the fly wheel, and was OF the point
of calling TO him, to tell him to desist until
the engine had stopped, but before he could do
so, the wheel had gone once round, and he be.
came so terrified that he could not speak, even
when he was spoken TO.
All the consolation that can afford to his
relatives and friends, is that all the fragments
were collected and wrapped in winding sheet
and put into decent coffin, and followed by the
officers and crew Of the boat, and deposited in Il
grave yard, Mt place the Ohio river called
Henderson's Bend. We learn by some Of his
comrades that his parents live somewhere near
Wheeling.
Lewis Hewdoe is the name ofthe unfortunate
person.
