This medicine has acquired very extended and
established reputation wherever it has been used,
based entirely its merits, which its superior
efficacy has alone sustained. The unfortunate vic
tim of hereditary disease, with swollen glands,
| tracted sinews, and bones half carious, has been
restored to health and vigor The scrofulous pa

years under cutaneous and glanduar disorders,
chronic rheumatism, and many other complaints
springing from arrangement of the secretive or

were from the rack of disease, and now, with re-
generated constitutions, gladly testify to the eff
cacy of this inestimable preparation.
"TRUTH is STRANGER THAN FICTION"
The attention of the reader is called to the fol-
| lowing astonishing cure, effected by the use Of
Sands Sarsaparilla:
| This is to certify that have colored woman
who has been afflicted for the last five years with
| scrofula and all the remedies used had no effect
in arresting the progress Of the complaint; the
| contrary, she constantly grew worse; and after
expending between $40 and $50 with physicians,
besides using other popular remedies without sue
cess, till the disease had eaten away the cartilage
of her nose, made its appearance on various parts
| of her body and had finally commenced its ravages
| in the roof of her mouth
In this dreadful situation, with the prospect Of
death staring her in the face, stated her to
DIR. Disosway, the agent for Sands Sarsaparia in
| Newbern, N. c., by whom was advised to use
that article; and TO my surprise, and that OF my
neighbors, to whom her case was known, after
| using four and half bottles, she was restored to
perfect health and that in the space of three weeks
she commenced taking it.
In witness of the truth of this statement have
hereunto affixed my name, this 18th day of Sep
tomber, lS47.

CIRCULAR.

TNHE UNDERSIGNED proposes 10 publish a
Il political Weekly paper in the German Ian
guage, in the City Of Washington, in support OF the
principles by which the Administration of Gene
raj Thyior came into power, and being desirous TO
obtain the aid and cooperation OF the Wing party,
he would respectfully state the reasons which, in
his estimation, make IL desirable and necessary
that such paper should be established at the sea
of Government.
l. The number Of those who use the German Ian
guage their medium of intercourse is upwards Of
Three Millions, and this number Is constantly In
creasing by immigration.
2 The name Of Democrats being the sppellation
Of the liberal or popular party of Germany, to
which all the immigrants before their emigration
belonged they do, Of course range themselves with
the party bearing that appelaton in this country,
soon they are able 20 exercise the elective
franchise; and the more so, as the country teens
with Democratic papers IN the German language,
whose particular object and anxiety IL is 10 this
misappellation 10 the best advantage.
g. Although there few Whig papers in the
country, they bear principally local character,
and relying for their support more on local patron
age than their subscription lists, they do gene
rally stand fall with the defeat Of the
Wing party in their particular section
4. The Germans, however, being an intelligent
and reading people, are accessible TO sound argu-
ment, and paper conducted with uprightnoss, and
speaking the plair truth, will be able, by degrees,
10 overcome preJudices, correct errors and misap-
prchensions and by it's own direct influence, as
well by its influence upon the local Whig pa
pcrs, in existence, will, Il is hoped, produce
the desired effect, and gain the rejecting and THINK
ing, that s the influential, portion Of the Gcrman
citizens over 10 the Whig ranks.
5. The undersigned s well aware that he has
many and serious obstacles TO overcome, but rely
ing upon the power Of truth and the cooperation
Of the Wing party, on account Of the intrinsic
merits Of his enterprise docs not fear 70 be charged
with entertaining too sanguine hopes, If he antici
pates a satisfactory result
