To the friends of Temperance and the
public generally we now make our appeal
in behalf Of this paper. The publisher
feeling it matter of importance to the in
terest of the Temperance cause in the Dis
trict, as well as the general interest Of the
cause, and having been, as he conceives,
Providentialy placed ina situation at this
time when he can mingle this interest with
that of the business men, and thereby rem
der double service to the community, and
still further open medium of communica-
ton by which our principles may be ex-
tended far and wide, at cheap rate, he
has purchased printing establishment, SO
as not only to be able to put daily paper
regularly to press, but also a weekly; and
still further, be able to do any other print
ing the public may be pleased to have done;
and he assures them that they shall have
no cause of complaint. He has made ar
rangements by which he can devote his
time to the interest Of the Office and the pa
per; and, having employed Mr.. Charles w.
Fenton, who will be always on the spot, to
conduct the printing, he has no doubt but
that general satisfaction will be given. We
shall make arrangements to have the earliest
news; also the proceedings of Congress.
We wish all who are indebted for the pa
per up to this time to pay up, as the affairs
of the tri-weekly must be closed. They
will perceive that we are about to give
them better paper, double the number, at
the same price.
While the ssCoLUMBIAN FOUNTAIN" will
be devoted to the cause of Temperance, its
columns will be enriched by original articles
on subjects calculated to interest," instruct,
and benefit its readers. 1t is intended. so to
blend variety, amusement, and instruction,
as that the various tastes of its patrons may
be las far as it is practicable) gratified.
Commerce, Literature, and Science, and
every other subject of interest, not mconsis-
tent with Temperance and morality, will re-
ceive the earnest attention of the publisher.
Nothing of a sectarian, political, or personal
character will be admitted.

To those who use Pills.

Of all the medicines put forth in the world, none
has been regarded with such general favor by all
who have used them, as the so well known and eff
cacious medicine called "DR. SMITHS IMPROVED
INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS." and perhaps no med
icine ever possessed in its peculiar combination,
such mysterious power over disease. A lady OF
the first responsibility in this city, (whose name
we are permitted to give in private) informed US
this week, that she had long suffered the most
violent headache. and that nothing had ever afford
ed her relief like these Pills. She said that Dr..
Huntington advised her to try them, stating he
knew them to bet good medicine. Physicians do
recommend them, and we have the proud satisfac-
ton of being permitted to refer to more than one
high in the profession. These Pills, besides their
great efficacy, have q taste as pleasant as sugar
plum, being coalsd With sugar, "a thing unheard
of in the Word, until Dr.. Smith made them, after
more than years trial and great expense.) The
public are informed that these Pills are not of the
mushroom class, made of any thing merely to sell
for short time, as they are made of the purest
materials and they will bear the scrutiny of elhe
