THE TRUTH SOMETIMES NOT FOUND OUT
UNTIL TOO LATE.
OUCH is often the case in regard to persons taking
y medicine They induced by plausible rea-
soning false representation and doctrines, to employ
medicines that so far from being adapted to their
disease or sickness, absolutely increase the symp-
toms, destroy the constitution, rack the whole
system and bring on gradual decline, terminating
in death previous to the fatal termination, however,
(but unfortunately late the truth is found out
that the pills, mixtures &C. they have been taking
were composed of the most powerful and dangerous
ingredients prepared too by persons knowing nothing
of disease or the nature of the medicines they recon-
mend, depending altogether upon the general doc
trne of such imposters," that their medicines will
kill or cure.n BE advised, then, if you find it ne
cessary to take medicine for purifying the blood
and cleansing the bowels, to take nothing but DR..

Old and young, at all times, without regard to
weather may take them without fear OF taking cold,
and without restraint from occupation or sual course
of living. Upwards Of 1000 certificates have been
published, various times, of their efficacy. More
than 100 900 boxes have been sold in Philadelphia In
twelve months. These facts go to prove their value,
or so MANY never would be sold in so short time,
in place where they are manufactured; this, no"
ever arises in part from the fact that the mapufac.

MILITARY ENCAMPMENT.

A two-day encampment of the volunteer CON-
panies of this District, it will be recoected,
commences in this city to-day. The number OF
companies who are to unite in the encampment
we are not yet appraised of, but we presume our
neighboring volunteer corps of Georgetown and
Alexandra will not be wanting to swell the grand
parade. We venture to assert that in numbers
it will far exceed the anticipation of its active
progenitors, and that it will be gotten up in that
spirit with which it has ever been our admiration
and pleasure to witness in the officers of the
volunteer corps of our city and District.
The line will form in front of the City Hall,
and march through a number of our streets /;
from thence it will proceed to the Mall, between
7th and 18th streets, south of the Canal; and,
after going through variety of evoutionE, the
companies, separately and in their order, will
pitch their tents for encampment.
The following compose the field officers for the
| occasion:
RICHARD FRANCE, Of the Washington Light
Infantry, Colonel, commanding.
MATTHIAS SNYDER, of the Mount Vernon
Guards, Alexandra, Lieutenant Colonel
ROBERT Z. DUvALL, of the Morgan Rifemen,
