that he had taken the precauon Of supplying himself
with stock of Pease's Horehound Candy. The conse
quence of which that when he called upon yes

he received on the preceding evening this is but
out of thousands who have experienced relief in the
manner But this being secret we make no notice of
it, Clergymen who in the habit of speaking often,
who under the necessity OF using great exertion in

only wish them to read the certificates of members Of

the bar also members of Congress and the State Legsa
ture also from private individuals, who have used this
Candy in that considered hopeless by phys

hope that fellow citizens will approach this sub

democrats No man is now so insane or SO stupid
to deny that change is necessary in the sys-
TEN; at the same time, every one is ready to admit
that all the advantages and benefits connected with
the system should be sccsred to it for ever. But on
the other hand. we regret to zee great maay nteli
gent men working themselves into aperfect fever at
the prospect OF the slightest change in the public
school system, as If wholesome improvement
would destroy all the schools Why these men
would rather see disease destroy person lite, than
that the surgeons knife should be employed to era
dicate the evil. Let all necessary reform, and in
provements be supported.
