The Legislature Of Kentucky pro-
vided at its late session, that "the
Governor shall have a salary of 3d.
500; the Judges of the court OF ap-
.peals $500; the Judges Of the civil
courts $l,400; Register oil the land
Office 81 $50, &C., which sums shall
De. paid quarterly"
Now, as they forgot TO say that
the salaries should be so much per
dnnum, the clear legal construction
is that the Governor is TO receive 81
500 quarterly, or $4,000 per year.
The Legislature did not mean any
such thing. but they have SO said, and
now the people Of Lexington are
having their fun over it, and are
guessiog whether the Governor,
Judges. &c, will take the high or
the low figures.

From Arnold Buaam, the Ph.ran.hropr..

DIR. Brandreth, my dear friend, Ifto be good
md TO do good is the highest duty ofman; and
il to do good is the best evidence n man can
give that he IS good, then feel bound to ad-
dress thee as one who has come up to the mark
Of mans destiny.
As a testimony tnat this IS not vain hattery,
give the following brief sketch Of my own ex-
perience:
When I was twenty years old, was very
sick for about two months With what my physi-
eian called "Slow Fever during which time I
took much medicine; from that time for 81
years, was very often sick and under the care
Of physician. About twelve years ago had
a very severe attack Of InAammatory Rheu-
matism, during which | was attended by DR..
Moore, Of Philadelphia. | then regarded NY
! sell as an old man with broken constitution,
swiftly descending to the grave. Soon after
wards, however, l purchased a box Of Bran
| dreths pills, and finding them on trial, to be
more effeetual in removing disease, than any
medicine had ever tried before, | replenish-
ed my supply from time to time, as occasion
required. Since that time have spent three
| years in the Western Country, where / was
very much exposed to vicissitudes likely 10
produce disease; twice have crossed the At
lantic Ocean, and have now spent the last four
years in an Office in This sickly city. Once
while travelling in the West. was taken sud-
dedly very i'll, the friend at whose house stop
ped called in a physician, who made a very
careful examination Of my case. and then pro-
posed TO commence a process which he stated
would so reduce my system as to conhne me TO
the house for at least six weeks, but declined
his prescriptions, took dose Of Brandreth's
Pills, called the next day and paid the physi-
clan for his visit, and pursued my travel, and
this is the only instance Of my being visited
! by physician since purchased the first box Of
Brandreth's Pills l2 years ago.
My health is now vastly betfer than it had
been for 81 years refore commenced the use
Of these Pills. They have been my constant
companion wherever ! have been, by land or
by sea, and my only medicine; am now
ten pounds heavier than / was before I used
them; when l take a cold now, l have no
cough, and I attribute all this change, under
God, to the substitution Of Brandreth's Pills,
for the frequent bleeding and the calonel dos-
ing TO which | was before subjected. My wife,
too, by the same means enjoys the same unin-
terrupted good health. Our Doctors bill foI
both Of us, have not amounted to FIVE dollars in
twelve yenrs. When we find our health i'm.
paired from any cause, we take dose Of Bran
dreth's Pills, and the difficulty is removed,
and judging from my own experience, believe
IL every family should adopt the same practice,
the health and the longevity of the eommuni-
ty would be greatly promoted.
Most respectfully thy friend,
ARNOLD BUFFUM.

Such in fact is the nature and simplicity of
this medicine, so powerful in action, yet so
mild, safe and pleasant in its operation, that
it might be justly termed, "Natnre's own pre-
