that delicate and declining state Of health so common
before Consumption sets in.
All persons who may have any of the symptoms a.
boyc enumerated, those upon whose Ytnls the swife
and silent moving demon Consumption has placed his
death like grasp, need not yet despair of relief Why?
Because EAsTMAN's CONCENTRATED BALsAM OF Wild
CaERRY, has already cured many such cases, and will
certainly restore many more from the grasp of the
grm visaged monster II those afflicted will but try it.
Do not say, II have tried this or that and ID does me
mo good" but try his and H. aer using it, you are
not in some measure restored then you may well de-
spair
Eas,man's Concentrated Balsam of Wild Cherry has
cured many cases. Here is the proof in short The
certificates in full around each bottle.
Robert Garter, OF GAINESVILLE, Ohio, was attacked
with pain in the side, hard dry cough and difficulty in
breathing. These symptoms increased rapidly, until
at last he was brought to that fearful stage where tho
cold night sweats commenced, which presage speedy
dissolution of the spirit from the body. At this time
he commenced using Eastmnn's Concentrated Balsam
lof Wild Cherry, having previously used many remedies
to purpose. Before he had used one single bottle.
he was restored complete health, and has continued
go ever since. Read his certificate on the wrapper.
RIP Crowell, of Putnam, Ohio, ,certifes that he was
cured of severe and distressing cough pain in the
sde hortness of breath, and night weats, by using
Eastman's Concentrated Balsam of Wild Cherry His
cough and oppression Of breath that he
could not lie down.
NTablon Davis, of DeerGed, Morgan county Ohio,
states that daughter of his was in decline for six
seyenyears, with severe cough, painin the side and
chest, and other symptoms indicating Consumption
She used various remedies among which she used
en- bottles of Wis.ar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, which
was not of the least benefit to her. She, lastTe-
sort land as many others will do) got bottle of East
MANS Concentrated Balsam of Wild Cherry, and was
cured.
\ Do you believe now! We might extend the list OF
cures effected by this medicine but of what avail If
youw not believe these proofs, more would streng-
then your belief These certificates not fictitious
stories, got up for the purpose Of selling the medicine
ryou doubt, write the persons visit them, and
the bloom of health covering the checks of those
lately on the verge of the grave.
Again we say before it is too late try bottle Of

CONGRESSIONAL.

The debate in the Senate on the great ques
ton of ''ihe noticen was continued to-day.
Mr.. ]. NJ. Clayton spoke for an hour and a
half in support Of The amendment offered by MIR.
.Critenden After reprobating the idea that this
was party question, Mr.. Clayton proceeded, in
the most emphatic manner, 10 express his opinion
in favor of giving the notice He was in favor of
'it, because il was ndspensably necessary as the
first step in the way of securing an honorable
peace between the two countries But he insist
ed that with the President, and with him alone,
should rest the responsibility of giving The no
lice. The chief magistrate, from his position,
was best qualified tojudge of the whole matter,
and TO him should be committed the dlscretlona-
ry power. Mr., Clayton ridiculed the idea OF a
war being likely to result from giving the notice.
Neither the President nor the heads of the War
land Navy Departments, nor any member OF Con
gress, speaking ca cathedral had given any init
nation of the danger ola war; and, in itself, the
measure, so far from having a tendency to pro-
duce arupure in the peaceful relations OF the two
countries, was the only means of preventing that
collision between the two classes of settlers IN
Oregon which must be expected If the JOINT oc-
cupancy were permitted to continue, and which
would almost necessarily lead to war. The
notice, then, was pacific measure, and as such
he was prepared to vote for it. In his concluding
remarks, Mr. Clayton observed that the people
of the United States had manifested no want OF
confidence IN the Executive with regard to the
course of policy pursued on this most important
question. On this question there was bat one
party-thc national party; and though dlfleren-
ces of opinion prevailed relative to the precise
mode Of executing the will of the nation, vel
there was but one opinion relative to the princI-
pie at issue. He deprecated war. TWAS terri
BILE calamity. England was no common toe-~
The United States we're not prepared for war
But he did not apprchond any war if the notice
were given.
h The speech of Mr.. Clayton was listened to
with great attention. The galleries were crowd
:. ed, and so many Of the members Ct the Other
/ House were attracted 10 the Senate chamber
! that there was scarcely quorum left

called for reports, the House passed at once into
