DIR. HULL'S


Are the greatest discovery ever made for dispell-
ing the various kinds of worms that so frequently
and distressingly annoy both children and adults.
The following is from the Sparta Gazette:
"From our own knowledge we take great pleas
ure in recommending to the public Hull's Worm
LoZenges, as the best worm medicine extant. Chill
drcn ill eat then, as they would candy, and cry
for them. To parents we say. do not be without
these Lozengcs at any time, as you value the lives
of your children"

nR. SWAYNE'S COMPOUND SYRUP
~ OF WILD CHERRY.

IL OF WILD CHERRY
CONSUMPTION,
Coughs, Colds, Asthma, Bronchitis, Liver Com.
plant, Splitting Blood, difficulty of Breathing,
Pain in the Side and Breast, Palpitation of the
Heart, Influenza, Group, Broken Constitu-
ton, Sore Throat, Nervous Debility, and
all Diseases OF the Throat, Breast and
Lungs the most cffcctual and speedy
cure ever known for any of the
above diseases is
THE GENUINE PREPARATION,
DIR. COMPOUND SYRUP OF
WILD CHERRY
~Consumptives, or those whose lungs are affected
slightly, should take this Syrup without delay, by
which they may prevent the fixing of that dire dis
case fully and firmly. How important then, TO
avoid it. Never live a day with a cough when this
Syrup can be had, and you are nearly certain,
with proper care, to avoid destruction by Consump-
ton.
DR.. SWAYNE'S COMPOUND SYRUP OF
WILD CHERRY was the first prepat alton from
that valuable tree which was ever introduced to the
public, and ample proof is afforded of its success
by the country being flooded with "Balsams,"
g Candies" and Mixtures of Wild Cherry. not
one of which is prepared by a regular phi sician,
although they have assumed the names of respecta-
bic physicians to give currency to their Nos
trums." And there is an 'Impostor' who has
come out within a few days, with a Compound Svr-
up Of Wild Cherry, clinging still closer TO the oriri
nal name, that persons might be deceived if they
did not bear in mind the name of DIR. SWAYNE
Therefore the public should be on their guard, and
not have a worthless mixture palmcd upon them
only prepared by DR.. SWAYNE,, N. w. Corner of
Eighth and Race streets, Philadelphia
60 The public are requested to remcmbe that it
is DR.. Swayne's Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry,
that has and is repeatedly performing such mirac-
ulous cures of diseases which have bafled the skill
OF the Profession, and set at defiance the whole cat
alogue OF Patent Medicines, which are daily pulled
through the organs of the press. Therefore ask for
DR.; S~wayne's Compound Syrup of Wild Cher :,
and purchase none other.

SERIOUS FIRE. The Washington, Pa, Re-
porter says that few days since, fire took
place, which destroyed the steam grist mill and
carding machine, the property of Mr.. David
Hoge, situated on Mngo Creek, in Noting
ham Township, with all their contents, con-
sisting of grain, WOOL and all his books, to-
gether with much other property. The fire
originated from grease which had been placed
on stone, for melting, to be used in greasing
wool.

ordering resumption Of payment before Tins
but to them have We delegated this trust, aud
! 1t is our duty to defer to their views of pru-
dence. No division has been among them up
on the main question of ultimate payment;
they have differed, only, as to the time for per-
manent resumption. The revenue laws have
been multiplied and strengthened at each sue
ceedng session. deeds ,dev seS notes, bonds, in
hertances, lands, chattels, incomes, salaries,
trusts, official commissions-havea all been tax
ed, by the most searching provisions of law;
the treasury has been repenished, the sinking
fund IS most prosperous, and hazard the OPT
nIen, that the next session Of the Legislature
will not pass without positive, bona .fdc and
permanent resumption of the payment of the
interest of our debt. The public mind will to-
lerate no further delay. About the early re-
moVal Of the principal Of the debt, by the
growth of the sinking funi, the public need
have no apprehension. 1t now amounts to
more than one.sixth of the whole debt, and
will soon absorb it when the accumulation Of
interest is checked. 1t is my opinion that all
propositions to fund the back interest in stocks
OF less than six per cent. is fraudulent. At any
rate, no back interest can be funded, with even
a show Of Justice, at less rate than the stock
bore from which, proceeded
We cannot, with honesty, withhold another's
money, against his will, and then dictate to
him less rate of interest than the general laws
of the State allow. To do this, | hold, would
be to mar entirely, the reputation of comply
ing with our faith, 1t would be compromising
our honor in the same degree that individual
character would be lost by debating partial
payments to personal creditors, when we had
enough to pay all. No, no; when we pay, let
US pay all; let not the credit of the act be d.
minlshed by any compromising or traficking
settlements Such compro uises can only be
honorable where there Is an absolute dofcien-
cy OF means to pay the whole debt.

RAILROAD AccrDENr-P Presidential Z cape
serious and alarming accident occurred To
the railroad train which left New York on
Monday morning. The Philadelphia Inquirer
says:
While crossing the bridge over Rancocus
creek, it was discovered that the "draw" was
not let completely down. The danger was
imminent, a. there was not sufficient time to
prevent the train from reaching tue open draw,
such was the Roadway of the locomotive. The
conductor, brakcsman and engineer behaved
with the utmost GOODNESS, and contrived to de-
tach the cars just at the very moment that the
engine touched the edge Of the aperture or
chGsm Another instant, and the locomotive
was plunged into the creek, which is broad and
deep, and disappeared beneath the waters

gers saved, as if by providental forethought
and cooln,s on the part of the individuals we
have namod-lrom fright(ul danger, injury

GEN. La VEGA-" HiUs la Bdgateilc." The
Norfolk Courier relates the following ludicrous
scene which came of there last week;
few days since, gentleman, residing in
one Of the neighboring counties, visited our city
on business. lie had been soldier in his
YOUTH man of portly figure, with the air,
the step, the tread of soldier He had been
much among our neighhors, the MeXicans; was
familiar with their language, habits and Gus
toms; he wore, too, something of their costume.
The evening on which he landed was cool and
he had thrown over his shoulders his Sirappn, a
kind of square cloak worn by the MeXlcans,
with hole for the head to pass through in the
centre, and of variegated colors.
As usual a crowd had assembled at the land
ing place, when the boat arrived, and when our
stranger put his foot on the gang board to step
ashore, every eye was upon him, and the crowd
gave way at his approach 'Who is he? who is
he?' ran through the gaping crowd. 'He is a
Mexican said one-'The Mexican prisoner,
Gen. La Vega, said several-'Yes, said ano-
Their, Gen Weegah, there goes the id Mexi-
can, as he moved, with gait erect and military
q1lck-step, towards the National.'
The report was rife in our city, yesterday,
that Gen. Vega was among us, and, at night,
when our stranger appeared by moonlight, ar
raycd in his Sirappa-the boys shouted, and
darkey, wonder-struck at the singuarity of his
rig-cred Jim, Jim, run, run-only look at
ye-call -um-neber seed SIGH man
in all my born days, what sort coat dat he got
oDl'
This morning, the supposed Gen. La Vega,
embarked on the Peck for his home, and the
belief that the worthy farmer was no other
Than the distinguished Mexican, still exists in
