CONSUMPTION There is, perhaps, no disease
with which our country is affected, which
sweeps off annually SO many victims, as that
fell destroyer of the human race, Consumption
What vast amount of suffering might be say
ed the human family if they would but avail
themselves in season ofthe remedies which a.
ture has provided for her children, and which
Science has reduced te such form to be
within the reach of all. Far be it from us to
tamper with those who are suffering with this
painful disease. In offering you remedy,we
do not ask you to rely upon the representation
of those who might be uctuated by selfish and
pecuniary motives, but we give you The delib-
crate testimony of some ofthe most respectn-
Bile physicians, that Wistars Balsam of Wild
Cherry has established for itself reputation
that cannot be assailed. DR.. VIM. A. Shaw,
of Washington, N, c., writes, under date OF
MAY ], 1876, as follows;-
81 have heard of many cases of decided ben
eficial Effects from its use, especially in Asth-
ma and chronic cough of spasmodic character.
have used the Wild Cherrya great deal in
practice, and with marked good results in those
cases of great nervous mobility, and irrltabili-
ty, to which phthlsical patients are subject
/ have no doubt it is the best form in which
the effects of Prussic acid may be had as a Sc
dative on the constitution without danger to
the patient. Every one knows the reputation
of the Turpentne and Balsam constituents in
nrotrncted coughs The combination of these
principles ip Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cher
nv is ingenious and judcous.
Medicinal men are justly dlstrusttul OF Fat
ent Medicines ip general, but candor must dis
criminate between OUTRAGEOUS humbugs and
nostrums and those medicines which have
proved salutary, and in many well attested
cases, curative.

Kentucky---a Good Sign.

1t is refreshing to hear of such things as
the following in Kentucky-twin sister of
Vermont in the Union,-and in Wing meet
ing. too.-We long for the day when Ken
lucky shall fraternize with Vermont in per-
fected Freedom.
The Louisville Examiner says: On Salur-
day evening last, meeting of The friends of
Henry Clay was held in the court house in
this city. The large room in the court house
was crowded. With the political objects of
the meeting, we as editors, have, of course
nothing to do. But we wish to refer to the
eloquent remarks made by the orator of the
evening, Charles t. Thruston, Esq, on the
subject of slavery. Mr. T. said that old cues,
lions had given way to a more important one
that of slavery. Every one might see this;
and speaking of some ofthe evils of sla-
very, he exclaimed, "Would to God we were
rid off" Here the pent up feelings ofthose
present burst forth in the most enthusiastic
applause. We feel that that meeting has pro-
nounced the doom of slavery-that then, Mt
least, the voice of the people was the voice
ofGod Let no one say now that our pros
poets are gloomy. Mr. Thruston said lie
hoped an emancipation clause would be in
serted in the new Constitution. Here again
ne was interrupted by the most hearty APP
CLAUSE, This may he considered the first vote

Tndiote d for Murder.

Al the present term of the Court of Com
mon Pleas, sitting at Haverhil MS we learn
from the Democratic Republican, two persons
were indicted for Murder. The Republicans
report is as follows:
ENos G. DUDLEY, of Grafton was indicted
Cor the murder Of one Mary Dudley, his wife;
pIen, "not guilty;" continued to May term to
be again continued to October term.
ELIJAH WHITTIER, in. Of Orange, for the
murder of one Matilda Jane Whittier, his
daughter; plea, ''guilty of murder in the sec
ond degrees" plea accepted by the Attorney
Generals; motion by prisoner for leave to re-
tract his plea and plead not guilty: continued
for consideration.
The Republican also has the following in
regard to Dudley;
ave were probably mistaken in stating last
week that Priest Dudley, rs he is called, was
Freewill Baptist clergyman. 1t is now
gaib that lie never has been n minister of
regular standing in any denomination"
