HENRY C. MYEEs, Fayette, Mo.
HAMPTON l.. Boon, Clerk of the Supreme
Court Of Missouri, and Editor Of the Jefferson
City Metropolitan, speaks of the Embrocation
as follows, in his paper:
We desire to call the particular attention Of
all persons afflicted with rheumatism TO this
very valuable medicine. One bottle we be-
lieve, will cure any case, however violent.
The senior editor Of this paper, during the
last winter and present spring, suffered so
| much from Rheumatism that he was unable at
times to walk or stand upon his feet, or even
hange bis position in bed without assistance
| A part of bottle cured him in a few days.
His son was also afflicted with the same dread
full complaint, and suffered the most excrutia-
ting pain until an application of the Embroca-
lion was made, which effected an entire cure.
Col. Minor of this city, also had severe
attack Of Rheumatism this spring from which
he suffered severely, and which confined him
to his bed for several weeks. Nothing gave
him any relief until he sent to Rocheport, for
ty miles, and procured bottle Of this medi-
cine, which expelled his pains almost instantly
Mr.. Myers ought to have an agent in every
county in the State, with which this med
icine should be deposited for sale. We repeat
our honest conviction, for the benefit Of those
suffering with rheumatism, that one bottle Of
! this medicine will cure the most violent case
that can be found. Metropolitan.

The Coal Trade OF THE CHEsAPEAKE AND ONO
CAsAL.-The Clearspring IPhig says it has heard
much complaint about the difficulty OF getting coal
in Cumberland, and asks if We cannot keep 40
boats running with coal, what can do for 1000,
the number that should be on the canal? The
Whig thinks somebody must be asleep and calls
upon the people of Allegheny TO wake up
We would remark, in reply, that the delays that
have deferred the completion of the canal from
time 10 time-bringing that event at last. near the
end Of the season for navigation-havo induced the
parties who will engage most largely in the busi
ness, TO postpone operations until the spring The
result is that the coal companies have added nothing
yet 10 the cars, motive power, SC. they have
heretofore employed in furnishing coal for trans
portation the railroad. Nor arc the fixtures for
loading at the wharycs yet completed to ftieth
part Of the extent that viii be necessary for the
busincss. il has been regarded az more prudent
70 postpone the commencement Of these heavy
operations until the opening Of spring, and then
take fair start under the reduced rates of toils.
When that time arrives, the friends of the Canal
may rest assured that the " black diamonds" will
be brought down from the mountains in such guam 81
titles as will satisfy the most enthusiastic OF it's
well wishcrs.-- CiIrnbtridHd Ciriiian.
