children are seldom free from them, and as they
initiate the symptoms of almost every other COM

being suspected. il Worms not only cause Of

DIR. JAYNE's TONIC VERMIFUGE,

which is perfectly safe, and pleasant that children
will not refuse to take it. 1t efectually destroys
WORMS neutralizes acidity sourness of the
stomach, increases appetite, and acts as general
and permanent Tonic, and is, therefore, exceedingly
beneficial in Intermittent and Remittent Fevers In
digestion, &C., and is certain and permanent cure
for FEVER and AGUE
II not only destroys Worms, and invigorates the
whole system, but it dssolves and carries off the SUI
perabundant slime mucous prevalent in the
stomach and bowels of children more especially Of
those in bad health. This mucous forms the bed or
nest in which worms produce their young; and by
removing tit is impossible for worms to remain in
the body. iaATaH1 #9tE43
1t is harmless in its effects on the system, and the
health of the patient always improved by its use,
even when no Worms are discovered. Numerous
certificates Of its usefulness have been received,
which the proprietor does not consider necessary to
publish yet to give the reader idea of its yerm
fuge powers, he will mention few cases. He gave
it to his little nephew, not four years old, and in
few days he discharged upwards of ninety large
worms. He also gave it to his daughter, then about
three years old, when it brought away thirty worms
in one night
Josiah Thompson, near Salem, N. j., administered
this Vermifuge to child between two and three
years old, and says that in few days she discharged
one hundred and twenty-seven large Worms
MT Joseph A. Lents, of the Penn Township Sa-
wings Institution, in this city, gave it to Of his
chore and says that after the sixth dose it brought
away about hfty Worms at once FIVE and six inches
long;
Mr.. Ferdinand Woodruff used two bottles of this
Vermlfuge for DYSPEPSIA, and in the course of
two weeks discharged upwards OF thirty pieces of
TAPE WORM and was thereby perfectly cured.

Deafness.
Dr. McNAIR'S ACOUSTIC OIL-Those deaf
from infancy often receive, in most miraculous
manner, their hearing when they least expect it, by
some trifing accident or event, which shows them
how easily they might have much sooner had their
hearing, and saved themselves and their friends the
pain of conversing in loud tone, without pleasure,
Of being neglected and stunned to avoid that dis
tress which is felt mutually by the deaf person and
his hearers. How sacred duty, therefore, it is
that we use all necessary means to remove such an
affection, and enjoy the social qualities implanted in
natures! This EAR OIL has the effect so to re-
lieve the tension, and bring into the natural action
OF the parts, as to restore the hearing when lost or
impaired This is proved by so many and wel-known
cases, that, where knoWn,it needs no praise. The
great wish of the proprietor is that each may speak
to others Of its uncommon virtues, till sufferers may
know. and be relieved and restored by its use This
will be done in all cases of recent DEAFNESS and
many Of long standing. ALL DEAF PERSONS
should use this oil 1t will relieve at once, or, if
DEAFNESS is just commencing, will remove the
cause and check its progress. Those who have been
long deaf should continue its application few weeks
to hear WELL Each flask has full directions for use
attached to it.

Some six years ago, says the Pittsburgh Sun,
DR.. Brisbane, then resident of Charleston,
South Carolina, being anxious to take M his
residence in Cincinnati, sold his slaves, 81 in
number, and moved to the latter city. During
his stay there he determined that he would re.
deem and lbetate each slave he had sold. A
short tire since he went to Charleston, and
at an expense Of $4,000 more than he received
for the slaves, purchased them back again.
He then put them on board Of vessel, and took
them to Baltimore. At Baltimore he hired ar
extra conveyance and brought them on to this
city, where he arrived on Saturday night last
On Sunday they we're put on board Of the Val
ley Forge, and started, with their benefactor
Tor Cincinnati. We learn that it 10 the inten
ton of DR.. Brisbane to settle them comfortabl,

New York, March 13.-Mys,erious, and

Monday as some laborers were digging a foun
dation at the N. E. corner of Water and Walnut
streets, some brick houses being about to be
erected in lieu Of some frame buildings, they
scovercd near the surface Of the tenement just
removed, the body Of female, and great con-
sernation and excitement was the result. I'm.
med,atelv the Coroner was summoned and the
body examined; it proved to be that of young
female about lS years Of age and dressed in a
silk dress, comb was remaining in her hair,
but the features of her face were not descerni.
be as it is supposed she had been buried for up.
wards of two years. The corpse was covered
with lime, and large carving knife found in the
horrible grave allotted for her. Her teeth were
perfect but the face much dccomposed, and the
feet entirely separated from the body.
Al further particulars that our Reporter was

The Boston Atlas has received returns
from considerable portion of The State, su(-
fcient at any rate to show what was expec-
ted as matter of course-that Locofocoism
as usual, has it all in its own way. Steele,
the radical candidate for Governor, will re-
ceive about the same majority as Hubbard
at the last election. The Legislature will
be just about as Locofoco as last year. that
is, the Senate will be almost entirely filled
with what are whimsically denominated
" democrats" and the same beautiful party
probably have some thirty or forty in the
House Of Representatives. The Granite
State continues " clear grit" and de,ermin-
ed to be in the smallest minority she ever yet
