INDIANA TONIC PILLS,
A Certain, Safe, and Efectual Cure for
CHIEhS AND FEVER Or
FEWER & AGUE.

FEVHIS remedy although but a short time be-
g fore the public, is gaining reputation uh-
equalled by any other medicine ever before
presented. Hundreds are ready to certify to lis
efficacy IN the cure of that insiduous enemy TO
human comfort-"FEVER AND AGUE" 1t
has proven TO be an estimahle remedy in admin
isterIng for that most formidable disease. IL re-
establishes in a remarkable degree and very
promptly, the healthy tone and natural action
OF the digestive functions; and from its purify
ing and invigorating influence, it can be safely
taken and with benefit, in all diseases attended
with debility of the systems. But it is more par
t~icularly recommended in the case OF Fever and
Ague.
1t is never failing remedy and no family
ought to be without it in their houses, parucd-
larly those inhabiting LOW MARSHY STU
ATOMS; and at this season OF the year when
the atmosphere is strongly imPregnated with
miasm.
As this medicine is put up under the proprie-
tors immediate inspection on the most scientific
principles. And having tried its efficacy on
thousands. there has not been a single instance
within his knowledge, wherein it tailed to cure
when the dire ctions were adhered to.
The following are among the many certIh-
Gates OF CURES effected by this valuable medl-
cine. -

TIE UNIVERSITY AND THE RICHMOND WIG.
The Wing of Wednesday renews lis assaults
upon the University, and brings 10 its aid The
Winchester Republican. | am not disposed TO
lremble on account OF this very important Access
sion, nor to fear its results upon The maintenance
Of this institution, though its Editor be Senator
from Virginia. On The contrary, ain pleased 10
see that these two important papers have al last
shown that there is demagosueism elsewhere
than in The ranks Of the Democratic party; that
there are distractions and hal. splitting disinc-
tons amongst those who are not members OF the
State Rights party; and that Wings may, and do
appeal TO the prejndices Of the poor against The
rich as well as those who gel most credit for such
proceedings.
What is all this opposicn7 Ii is that the peo-
pie who have by their munihcence erected the
institution, and BY their bounty sill support il,
are vet excluded from It's benefits, because OF the
expense of education at The institution. In other
words, il is the abstraction, (Which respect, and
wish most sincerely the Editors, as now, would
always SO zealously support il,) that The money
taken from the pockets OF the people by Govern
ment should be returned in equivalent benefits.
Now allow me briefly 10 examine this ques
lion. The amount oil money expended in build
ing the University is about SOC, GOO dnllars-the
interest upon which is $4,000 dollars. Add to
this The annuity from .he Stale of 5000 dollars
and we have $4,000 dollars, as The amount to
which the people of Virginia are injured each
year by this institution. Estimating the whites
OF Virginia al coo. 600, male and female, and We
have The enormous charge upon each individual
white in The Stale as 5. cenls-yes, FIVE and a
halt cents. Now estimating the average number
Of family TO be about FIVE, the head OF which is
taxed for this purpose, and we have trcniy-,ercn
and q daif cents, as the amount paid by each
family TO The support of the University.
Now tie amount OF the Stale revenue for the
last year, was between seven and eight hundred
thousand dollars. Let US say 10000 dollars.
or this sum, $4,000 dollars is paid 10 The Uni.
versily in addition to which the people pay $4,000
dollars as stated above. in interest upon the orisi-
nal cost of the Institution. That is, out Of every
fifty dollars, one is paid TO the University. Now
rich man pays, We will suppose, 100 dollars in
taxes, and, therefore, tro dollars 10 the Universe.
". A poor man pays one dollar in taxes, and,
therefore, ~ cents TO the University Now, is il
very unfair, tina. the benefit received by The rieh
