CINCINNATI, July Goth, lSI7

MEssRs. EplToRs:-As usual "nothing in par
ticular' has been continually happening here
for the past week. The most extraordinary
thing which have TO record is the rain Of sun
day. BY the way, did YOU ever notice that il Is
apt TO rain harder on Sundays than on a week
day. Ii seems # this was the case if con-
suit my own experience. BE that as il NAV,
there more rain fell on Sunday last. than
has fallen on any day since have been in Gin
cinnati, and that is nearly two years. The
sewers, where We have any, We're much too
small TO pass the water which ran toward their
mouths. At the corners of Ninth and Main,
the cellars were filled, and the water covered
the store floors to the depth of foot The
same was the case in Sycamore. One of the
culNerts over Deer Creek was nearly carried Off
also Worcester's Bucket Factory. A
house occupied as n warehouse, near the head of
the Whitewater Canal, was struck with light
ming. but not very seriously damaged. A house
at Montgomery some twelve miles from this
city. was also struck and nearly DESTROYED.
All over the county, as far have heard
from, the storm was very severe.
As set off TO all these damages and discom-
forts, We have purified atmosphere Health
seems 10 breathe upon the winds. The streets
swept clean of the dust, and glare no longer
in the sun. The foliage looks green and
healthy. 80 may il be- with cur political AMI
moral atmosphere. We feel the close sultriness
We perceive the spirit Of unrest, We hear tn.
mutterings % the thunder, which precede the
storm. We must feel the force of the wind,
and hear the bu fittings of the tempest. but thank
God, that storms and tempest, are but insirn-
ments by which lie works out publication and
heath.

Nothing new has happened since the above

noticed AT the time. and hardly worth the
membrance, swell In the lapse of years, and
grow divine, from the resultant consequence.
As the long chain Of events unfolds itself, as
We perceive the almost definite catastrophes

aifrighied to upon how small link at
time it has been dependent. Thus it is with the

A CERTAIN CURE FOR PILES.
DR.. UPHAM'S VEGETABLE ELECTUARY
UAN INTERNAL REMEDY.=ED

U3@AN INTERNAL REMEDY.eE0
FHHHE Vegetable Pile Electuary, invented by
a. DR.. A. Upham, distinguished physician
OF New York city, is the only really success
tuI remedy for that dangerous and distressing
complaint, the PILES, ever offered to the A.
merican public.
Mark this; it is an internal rcmedy-not an
external application, and will cure any case of
Piles, either bleeding or blind, internal and ex.
ternal. and probably the only thing that will.
There is no mistake about it 1t is a positive
cure-speedy and permanent. 1t is also con-
venient medicine to take and improves the gen
eral health in remarkable manner.
Each box contains twelve doses, at s ! cents
per dose. 1t is very mild in its operation, and
may be taken in cases of the most acute in
Illumination without danger. All external ap.
plications arc in the highest degree disagrcea-
bic, announcement, and Offensive; and from tn g
very nature of the disease, temporary in their
effects. This edcne attacks the disease at
its source. and removing the ca use renders the
cure certain and permanent.
EXPLANATORY DISEASES.
Although the Eiectuary was originally pre-
pared Tor the cure of piles, yet it has proved
itsclfto be medicine far superior to a II Others
in all diseases OF intlamnla tory character
with deterE nation of blood to any particular
part Or organ. In inflammation and congcs-
tion vi INC liver ana Snlecn; inflammation, sore
ness and liberation of the stomach, bowels,
kidneys, and bladder; in inflummatorv and
mcrcurial rheumatism it is the best medicine
ever discovered.
TO MARRIED LADIES.
Married Ladies' are almost invariably subject
to that painful and n urious disease, the Piles,
with consequent inflammation of the stomach
bowels and spine, weakness Of the back, flow
of blood to the head, &c. The electuary is
perfectly safe for pregnant ladies, and the most
usetnt cathartic that can possibly be used, as
it will 0. only remove the piles and all in.
flammatory diseaseswithout pain or irritation
but will ensure an easy time, safe delivery
and Il sound constitution in the offspring.
CURE FOR LIFE SECURED.
The EIectuary contains no mineral Medi-
cine; no aloes, coocynth. Gamboge, or other
powerful and irritating purgative. No fear of
taking cold whileundert its influence, no change
in diet necessary. If taken according to the
directions CURE FOR LIFE IS GUARANTEED.

Aiming all the famous medicines for con-

That it stands at the head of all other rem

es, in cases of the most dangerously consump-
tive chara ctcr; and physicians Of the grea test
emnencc, throughout our whole country, do
unhestatng'y pronounce it to be enc of the
most powerful curative of Pulmonary diseases
in the whole range Of Pharmacy. The sale in
the Western Statos has, thus far, been unpar-
aleled; and the most gratifying proofs of its
efficacy have been received from every place
where it has been used. Thousands of Con-
sumptive patients have already tested its ex-
allied virtues. and confessed its surprising ex-
cellence and amazing power. The remarka-
BILE success Of this Balsam, is no doubt owing
in great measure, to the peculiarly agrcea
Bile and powerful nature of its Ingredients
1t is fine herbal medicine, composed chiefly
Of WILD CHERRY BARK and the genuine ICELAND
MOSS, (thc latter imported expressly for this
purpOse) The rare medical virtues OF which are
also combined, by a new chemical process, the
virtues Of which are also of TAR; thus render
ing the whole compound the most certain and
effica CT Gus ever discovered for CONSUMPTION OF
TIE l. UNCs, LIVER AFFECTIONS, AsrHMA, BRoN-
cHlTIs, and all diseases Of the Respiratory Or
gans.
Reader, be thou startled to sec this Great
American Remedy suppanting every other
Balsam before the public.
And why should it not. when by its hundreds
and thousands of cures, in cases heretofore
considered hopeless, are being performed in
all parts Of the United States?
