TO PRACTISING PHYSICIANS.

Let us impress upon conscientious physicians the importanceof trial of the Brandreih's Pills. Let them make only fair tria! of them, and they will concede the medicine is the best evacuant of the bowels hitherto discovered. The ingredients are all prepared expressly for the manufacture of the Bran- treh Pills, and it is impossible to obtain pnrga- tive of :he same properties except from Dr. E. Bran dreh Let physicians and the world at large bear in mind. that the Brandreth Pills may be taken. if necessary, for any length of time daily. not only without injury, but with certainty of beneficial resnlts s.. .- -.s
 This universal medicine mildly but surely cleanscs the whole extent of the aiimentary canal. It then gives increased power to the circulation of the blood by which it deposites any impurities t may contain in the bowels which organ expea them from the body. months as the mildness or urgency of the disease may demand. or nnt the entire body has been evacuated and re.made by the food consumed.
 Howimporiant it is that persons of feeble frame, of mence with this pure and wholesome medicine No time ought to he lost by using Lo2enges ar Candies medicines. which better adapted for the des- structon of the teeth. than for the cure o any dis ease Experience has sufficiently tested that these remedies contain. invariably, caomel and other ac- tive chemical agents that have a very destructive effect of which there are too many individually con-
 The testimony m favor of the Brandreth Pills, and the number who are daily raised from bed of mlse- " bv their use, render it imperative that all who are suffering from sickness should give them trial.
 To BE REMEMBERED
 That Brandreth's Pills have stood seven years test m the Unlteo States.
 That they are vegetable and innocent medicine, yet all powerful tor the removal of diseases. whether chronic or recent infections or otherwise.
 That they purify the blood, and stay the further progress of disease in the human hody.
 That, in many eases, where the dreadful ravsges of uceration had laid bare liRament and bone, and where, to all appearance, no human means could save life. have patients, by the use othese pills been restored good health the devouriDg disease hay ing been completely ersdicated.
 The pills are sold in Litch6ed County by the fol- lowing Agents. viz

y.deeiIeats af ike Falls.--A correspondent of the NY, Commercial Advertiser gives the particulars of melancholy and fatal accidents that have recent. ly occurred at the Falls of Niagara. A Mir. Thomp- son of Philadelphia. is supposed to have been car- ried down in the current. He was last observed near the bottom of the falls, sitting on stone at that time bare, but which is sometimes swept by surge six or eight. feet high. As he has not been seehc heard of since, it is supposed that he was swept off by one of those heavy surges, and pefished in the rapid stream. ,,r,,., sef a.r ,.-
 Another most distressing accident occurred eight days aterward. in the neighbcshod of the falls. A Miss Rugg. ef Lancaster, Mass. eighteen years of age. was visiting the falls in company with young man from Buffalo. When near the Museum, while walking near the edge of the prccpice. she stopped to pluck shrub. growing on the brink, and in the attempt. losing her balance. she disappeared from sight. with che single cry ssave mer Her fall was broken somewhat by the bushes growing on the sidesof the precipice, so that when found she was still a.ive but apparently insensble to every thing but her extreme pain. She was badly bruised ex- ternally, and by her movements seemed to shew that her internal injuries were very great. She lived but ahegt two hours after her fall.

 self in the reflections of the beautiful sunset; eI
 alone of all the feathered tribe! As for the cac,-
 ling geese, the screaming peacock, indeed envy
 them not their voices; but thine, o, sweetest Phi
 lomel thy voice envy, as enchanted with it's
 melody, float more slowly upon the wave, and
 llnger intoxicated amid the reflections of heaven.
 How would sing thee, golden evening sun how sing thy beautiful light and my own bliss! how dive into this glassy mirror of thy roseate face and die
 Still enraptured the swan dived down. and scarcely had he risen again above the wave, when there stood upon the shore shining form, which beck oned him thither. Twas the god of the morning and evening sun, the beautiful Phebus "sweet. lovely creatures" said he, the prayer is answered which thou hast so long cherished in thy silent breast, but which might not be answered any soon- er." Scarcely had he said l1e word, than he touch ed the swan with his Tyre, and attuned him with the tone of the immortals. The elastic tone pene- trated the bird of Apollo. Now loosed in song he poured forth sweetest strains to the god of beauty. Grateful, joyful, he sang the beautiful swan, the glttering lake, and his own innocent, bissful life Soft as his downy form was that melodious song.- Far, far over the waves he oated. in sweet, dreamy song, untii--he found himself in Elysium, at the feet of Apollo. in his true heavenly beauty. The song given him in life had become his death song, which, felt in every limb, dissolved his frame for he had heard the tone of the immortals, had seen the countenance of god. Gratefully he bowed himself at the feet of Apollo, and heard again those god-like tones, even as his own true wife came thitherward, who, in sweet song, had mourned her. self to death after him. The goddess of innocence adopted them both for her favorites; beautiful pair for her pearl car, when she bathes in the sea of youth. f. 'a .f
 Patience, thou still, hoping heart. What is de- nied thee in life, because thou canst not support it, will be given the at the moment of death.

1t Is impossible to keep an account of the numer- ous enthusiastic conventions which are being held by the Wings. in all parts of the country By these they show their attachment to their candidates for the highest offices in the gift of the people, and in their support of these, manifest their adherence to the true whig principles which they advocate.- Their support of Clay and Frelinghuysen - the ftcrn and unfnching advocates of protective tariff shows that they, as people have experienced, and are still experiencing. too many of the benefits which the operation of the tariff is spreading thro'- out the land to yield at this fearful criss to the efforts of that party, who arc endeavorng 10 over. throw this we'll established system of protective duties, and to crush the rapidly developing manu- featuring energies of the country. Their attach- ment to these same candidates, who have made the land ring with their denunciatons of the mad pro- ject of annexng, under present circmss ances, the Texan territory to our own, shows that they are not in favor of extending our national territory as to benefit the interests of one portion ot the country, at the expense of those of another, and especially when such increase of territory may cost us na. tional honor, may cost us treasure, when it may cost us blood.
 From all parts of the union we receive accounts of the enthusiasm which pcrvades the whig ranks Almost every state has collected it's thousands in harmonious council. Springfield has seen its 25Ooo, Matches its so,ooo, Albany its 5o,ooo; and in similar assemblages throus shout the land, have thewhigs thus manifested their steadastness in the principles of their party. and their hostility to the destructive and disorsanizing policy uf the modern 'dem0cracy.'
