T'HlS painful disease which has heretofore
L baflled the skill of Medical men, and the
scientific world, it is established beyond doubt,
yields to the application of this Medicine. The

in calling on all who are suffering, to use this
Medicine, with perfect confidence that they will
find speedy and permanent relief. 1t has never
yet failed to effect cure, and if properly APP
piled, it never will This is strong language, bu,
the facts justify it. Let any one who doubts iead
what those who have felt its beneficial effects
say of it. If they still doubt. let them try it, and
they will soon bear testimony of its efficacy.

BeatsOn's letter and Ring
worm Ointment.

A safe and certain cure for Salt Rheum, Tet-
IN ter, Scald Head, Ringworm, Barber's and
Prairie Itch, Mage, Old Sores, &c.
1t is highly recommended for open or liberated
Scrofula and Leprosy. No class of diseases have
ever been considered more difficult to cure than
those of q cutaneous kind, and it will be conceded
by all intelligent and candid physicians, that a
knowledge of the nature and successful treatment
of them is very limited and imperfect 1t is notorious
that many of these disorders have generally re-
sisted all the ordinary means of cure. Hence the
opinion so commonly prevalent, that they are in
durable, and it is probable that before the discov
cry and introduction of Beatson's justly ceebra-
ted remedy this belief was well founded But
wherever Ibis medicine hiss been known and used,
it has shown this opinion to be erroneOus-it has
demonstrated the certainty of radical cure in al
most every case. The proprietor, therefore, con-
sders this ointment as specific for the complaints
above enumerated.
This is no ''quack" remedy, but really certain
o nd speedy cure: it has proved eficacouS in every
case, without q single exception, for the last three
years, and invariably eradicates it in fourteen
DAYS, however inveterate or long standing. These
assertions can be verified by reference to the nu.
merous respectable families who have seen and
| felt its efficacy, and who have, from gratitude
offered their testimonials. 1t leaves neither smell
nor stain, and contains nothing of an injurious
quality

WIDows.-Nothing is more common than
devisng certain real estate and properly 10
widows, on condition of their remaining sim
gle, and in case of their marrying again.
The property is TO revert TO other paries.-
case in point occurred in Pennsylvania
where The widow married again, and the
heirs brought suii for the recovery of the
property, on the ground that she inherited il
condiionaly, which condition she violated.
Judge Lewis, of The Common Pleas, Lam
easier County, gave learned opinion in
which he decided, that the condition in re-
siraini Of marriage is void and that she loses
no part Of her estate by seconI marriage
The principles of morality, the policy Of The
nation, the doctrines Of the Common law,
the law of nature, and the law of God unite
in condemning as void, the condition at
tempted TO be imposed by the testator on
his widow. In another point Of view it is
wrong. If she is young, it is dangerous 10
compel her TO remain single; if old, she will
have no inclination 10 marry second lime.
II she has been unhappy in her first mar
rage, let her try her luck in second one
At all events, her own feelings. inclinat ons
and attachments should be her guide.

Our FLAG Is STILL THERE.-A writer in the
Nashville Union, who has given series of in
teresting notes of the Mexican campaign,
through which the Tennesseeans so honorably
passed, relates the following anecdote. The
beauty of it is, that ii is positive fact, and
frequently spoken of in Tampico, where il &C.
Cured.
When our flag was first unfured from this
staff, an aged Spaniard was heard inveighing
with lugubrious earuestness, against the peril
nacity with which that flag had pursued its for
tunes. In broken English he exclaimed-.sI
was de Spanish consul in de Louisiana when
dat dam flag was raised dere. go TO the Pen
sacola, but soon dat dam flag wave over me
dere. live den in Texas, but quick dat dam
flag still follow me dere; says by de Holy Vir-
gin. go where dat dam flag never COME
come TO Tampjco, but here is dat dam flag
again. believe if go to hi, dat dam flag
will follow me dere. And the old man wept
as he turned away his eyes from that flag. which
like his evil genius, had haunted him through
life, and was now knocking his heartfelt misery.
