the Cour, OF Appeals are unable 10 SIT On case,
by reason OF their being interested or related 10
parties the extension OF the remedy 10 other cases
in which justice is unreasonaby delayed, is SO
simple measure that the wonder now is that il
has mol been before adopted.
Under The bill concerning The Special Cour OF
Appeals, as we'll as under that reported in answer
to the resolutions OF Mr.. Dorman, the General
Cour, is to be held by five judges. As ii is pro-
posed TO dispense with the attendance OF all the

called the superior Cours for The State"

or ScR0FULA.--0ther diseases have slain
their thousands but ScrOfula has slain its tens Of
thousands. This very alarming affection appears
under great variety Of forms, from the slightest
deviation from health, 10 the most fatal Of local
and general disease. One Of the most common
forms is tuhercular Phthisis Pulmonals OF con.
sumption Of the lungs; diseases Of the hip and
knee joint and white sweling-also the glands oil
the peck and other parts of the body. Experience
has shown that SANDS SARSAPARILLA is
a cure for this most inyeteraie complaint, and
in numerous instances it has brought returning
health and life where the vital spark had almost
fled. From its preparation and psrnliar combina-
Won with other vegetable substances, il operates
BY removing unhealthy action from the diseased
organs, substituting healthy action in It's place
and giving tone 70 the general energies of tho
tenn. There is no single disease Of scrofulous ma
ture, or arising in any way from an unhealthy
state of the fluids and surface Of the body, which
it will not thoroughly extirpate.
