A number of account books were put in the

unirendly. 1t is but for one purpose; for the
use of mothers who have to pass through a sea
of affection in giving birth to mankind not to
be described 1t is to you make an appeal
1t is for your especial and general good that you
should make use of one bottle of the .HOther'S
Relief before confinement, then you can APP
proach the parturient chamber without feeling
if you were going to the chamber of death l..
You may rest assured it will still all tebrile and
nervous affection. 1t smoothcs and shields from
irritation, and by its peculiar properties it de-
stroys the cause ofhemorrhage or inflammation
that so often attend and follow the hour of par
turtion. 1t causes sweet and natural rest, and
at last facilitates the birth, so aht mothers have
not to pass through such excrucatipg pain and
distress. The .NOthcr'S Relief may be depended
upon in all cases of tire atening abortion where
it is possible to be prevcnted;in case of spasms,
&c, causing frequent alarm, from two to three
doses will give immediate relief
AS the subject is one that cannot with propri-
ETY. be fully discussed in this public manner,
we invite all who feel interested to call on our
agents (most of the respectable Druggists in
the United Statcs,) or on the manufacturer,
and they will be furnished with a complete

to form correct opinion of its merits, and al

For proof OF what has been above ad
vanced, read the following passages: Exod
II: A, 10. Deut. II. II, Y. Exod
20: 10, %. II: "a, %. Lev. %: 3, 6
4. The servant had full protection o
law, and there was no exclusion of his OWL
testimony.
Read the following enactment, Exod. 81:
26, 81: And if a man smi,e the eye o.
his servant or the eye Of his maid, that !,
perish he shall ld him go free for hi.
eyes sake. And if he smite out his ma,
servants tooth or his maid servants tooth
he shall let him go free for his tooth :,
sake.
BY this article, the loss of even tooth
by the act OF master, entitled a servant 10
his freedom. There is not, in the whole
Mosaic code, single statement that the
servants testimony was ever excluded, nor
the least hint looking in that direction
besides, exclusion could not be received ex-
cept 10y positive enactment, for no one will
pretend it is law Of nature. Any servant,
therefore, who would go before Hebrew
magistrate and testify and prove that his
master had inflicted permanent personal in
jury upon him to the extent Of the loss of
single tooth, he was Immediately to be set
at liberty and the master was ilms stigma
TIED as unfit to have a servant under his
control. Such was the humanity Of the
Mosaic code, such were It's facilities of
emancipation; and so impossible was it
under the Influence of that code TO treat
servants with harshness and cruelty.
One other enactment in connection with
the above also deserves consideration. Ii is
contained in Exod. q: 20. 81.
The limitation of the statute here looks,
al first view, hard and severe, almost like
some of the slave laws of our own country.
But we must take it in connection with the
other statute already recited--and if that
expressly prohibits, under so severe penal
", the destruction OF even a tooth, We may
be sure that this statute was not intended to
give license to cruelty. The Jews have al.
ways understood the penalty here as death,
compare Gen. 9. 5, g.. Lev 25: p y
and the intention Of the statute probably is
to save the guilty master from being put to
death, unless the evidence be perfectly clear
that lie mas caused the death Of the slave.
On this subject compare also the follow
ing enactments Lev. 10: Is. "a: q,
Mum. Is: 90. Deut. l: IL, Il. %:
10. c. T.. 5.
