The noise was not loud at that tlme but 1t has
kept increasing ever since, and now has become
SO great that the mouths of the little ones can
scarce be stopped DR.. Sherman sympathses
with the little sufferers, and very much regrets
that any of them should be disappointed. Know
ing the vast benefit which has been conferred upon
the community by the introduction his inlallible
Worm Lozenges,
he has entered into arrangements for enlarglng
his Manufactory by means of which he thinks he
will be able to supply the demand. And the same
pains and care will be TAKEN that these celebrated
Lozenges be made as they have always been, in
order that those who depend upon them may not
be disappointed in their hopes He knew when
he commenced the manufacture of the Worm LO-
.enges, that they would supercede the use of eve-
ry other vermifuge, as the Lozenge is uery cas-
ant to the taste, speedy in its effects. we'll as
certain, and the quantity required to effect per-
feet cure, is very small. These properties in con-
nexion with the fact that they sold for % cents
per Box, thus placing them in the reac!. of the
poorest man in the land, has not only caused them
to take the place of every other vermuge ever of
tered, but also rendered them popular to the COM
munity.
DIR. Sherman's Cough Lozenges,
continue to cure Coughs, Colds, Consumption,
Asthma, shortness and difficulty of Breathing, and
other diseases the Lungs, with the same facility
they did their first introduction and the people
have now become persuaded by actual experience,
that on the accession of a slight Cold, they have
only to step to either the Drs office, or one of his
Agents, and obtain a box of his Cough Lozenges,
which are very convenient to carry in the pocket,
and to take few through the day. BY pursuing
this course cure IS often effected in "a hours,
and the patient about his business. So great is
the celebrity of che Lozenges, that thousands of
persons who have used them, and become acqualnt-
ed with their fleets, will never be without them
Sherman'S Poor Mans Plaster
has cured more cases of Rheumatism, Pain in the
Back Side and Chest, Lumbago and Weakness,

counterfeit it, and palm it off upon the community
as the genuine. III Beware of Deception. III
Remember that the true and genuine Plaster is
spread upon reddish paper made expressly for the

Sherman is printed upon the back of the Plaster,

I should entertain the same opinion, even
lift were certain that this would become q
serious practical question; but that II could
never be thus considered, must be evident TO
all who have atlcntvcIy examined the sub
ject.
Neither the soil, the climate nor the pro-
ductions Ofihat portion of California sontll
of 80 deg. 80 min, nor indeed ol any porlloh
oft north or south, is adapted TO slave labor;
and besides, every facility would he there at
forded to the slave to escape from his mas
ter. Such property would be utterly inse-
cure in any part of California. 1t is morally
impossible, therefore, that minority Of the
emigrunts TO that portion of the territory
south of 80 deg 30 min, which will be
chiefly composed Of our fellow citizens Of
the eastern, middle and western states, will
ever re established slavery within its limits.
In regard to New Mexico, east of the Rio
Grande, the question has been already settled
by the admission ofTcXus.
Should we acquire territory beyond the
Rio Grande and east of the Rocky Noun
tains, il is still more improbable that II ma
jorty of the people Of that region would con-
sent TO reestablish slavery. They are them
selves, in large proportion, colored pop
ulution; and among them the negro does not
socially belong 10 II degraded race.
We remark first--thnt in thus speaking so
particularly of California, the Secretary of
State plainly intmates that California is 10 be
ahnercd-and he would not exclude Slavery
south of 36 deg. 80 min. Let ms see ifthe To-
cofocos of Vermont will swallow that Sec
ondly-he tells us that in regard 20 .Neic .Ner-
leo, east ofthe Rio Grande, the question has
dircndy been settled by the admission of Tex
as: and yet what honest man, locofoco or
wing, dreamed in "A or '45 that the anueXa-
ton of Texas embraced .N6,O ,NericO? But
Mr. Buchanan tells the loco iocos so; and we
ask the reader to watch and sec whether our
smart progressives in Vermont don't speedi-
Iy swallow that too, and swear by it. Third
Iy-it seems that Mr. Buchanan is not notC
exactly certain whether he will take territory
beyond the Rio Grande:and we call attention
to this fact, because we apprehend that he
will progress" thousand miles or so far
Their, by and by, and call upon the locos to
back him. So far as the question of SLAYER
Y is concerned, however, Mr. Buchanan
covers the whole ground-going for the Mis-
souri, compromise, and of course against the
WiImot proviso, in a toast at the conclusion
of his letter:
The Missouri Conpromse-Its adoption
in 1920 saved the Union from threatened
CONFUSION. Its extension in 1913, to all new
territory which we may acquire, will secure
the like happy result.

LINEAGE OF SILAs WRrGHT. The North
ampton Courier contains the following state
mcnt of Silas Wright's geneaogy. 1t will
he seen that lie was Of an ancient Puritan
stock:
Mr. Wright was a lincal descendant of
Samuel Wright. one of the first settlers of
Springfield and Northampton, who died at
the latter place in 1865. He used to eXhort
the people of Springfield on the Sabbath,
when they had no minister. The subject of
this notice was in the SeUenh generation
reckoning his immigrant ancestor the first.
The second in this lineage was Samuel, who
was slain by the Indians at Mortified, Sept
I'd, 1865. The third was Joseph, who died
at northampton, in 1877. The fourth was
Samuel, who lived in Northampton and died
sometime after 174O. The TN was Samuel
who removed to the north part of Hadey
now Amherst. The Siuh was Silas, who re-
moved, when his son Sas was n year old
from Amherst to Weybridge, VT. where he
died not many years since.

The daily reports published of the inter
meuts in the city clearly demonstrate that the
prevailing epidemic-lhc awful scourge with
which we are visiled-s raging with undi-
minisheG ifnot with increased virulence. The
disease, and the terrible ravages which it lie
making. are the absorbing topics of CONVEX
sation wherever we move. Many of our old
est citizens express the opinion that the eN-
tent of the malady and the fatality which at
tends il are without precedent in the cpl
demical history of New Orleans. We are
not prepared to sanction this opinion to its
fullest extent: but the number who have been
carried to the "narrOw house appointed for
all living" is dlstressingly great Would 10
Heaven it were otherwise; but as faithful
chroniclers ofpasslng events, duty requires
that we should present facts as they exist.
Many respectable citizens have been swept
into eternity. and wherever we 20 we can
hear of nothing but sickness aud death.
Griefand wretchedncss are depicted on al
most every countcnanCe, and hundreds are
clad in the "hubiiments of wo." The popu-
Iation of the city is unprecentedly small.
Thousands upon thousands of our citizens
are crowding the different watering places,
aud scattered over the East, the North and
the West. Our absent friends should not
think ofreturning until the papers of the cit
y announce the eXtrpatlon OF the poison from
our midst.
