This is one of the most efficient remedies for the
above diseases known. 1t is also so pleasant that
persons or children, who dislike taking medicine,
will take it readily. 1t is the cheapest and best
medicine in use. Its merits have been long known
and fully tested by those who are capable of iudg-
ing of its good effects All it requires to fully es-
tabsh its merits, in the mind of any one, is fair
trial. 1t is warranted to contain all the Medicinal
Properties of the Wild Cherry Bark, in a condensed
form, with the addition of number of articles long
in use by most celebrated Physicians.
The proprietor of this Medicine could give GER
tifcates from a number of most respectable and in
fuental persons in the city of Philadepha or Alex
andria, or any place where it has ever been intro
duced but he does not deem it necessary, as he is
confident that any one who tries it will be fully
satisfied with it.
Purchasers should be particular to ask for
"GUNN's WILD CHERRY PEcToRAL,' as there is a
number Of worthless articles in the market that
promise great deal more, but perform great deal
less. I{See that the wrapper of each bottle con-
tains the Written Signature of D. H. Quinn, as
without it none can be genuine.

A Question.


Some editor, down South, cautions moth
ers not to allow black women to suckle their
children, because the milk influences more
or less the formation Of the childs character,
and negroes being inferior to the whites, the
sucking grows up without talent, vicious or
phlegmstic, and with many Of the peculiar
tiles of The negro race. This has raised a
question with the Pittsburgh Commercial
Journal--a very important one, too--as to
whether it would be possible for child led
on "asses' milk" to be talentedY Or,
would the child grow up an assY Many
children, the Journal observes, are raised

Raising ,he ..Red curtain.n

Ia the Bank cases tried in the District
Court in this county, the plaintiffs were Bro
kers and Bankers, and the Attorneys seemed
well skilled in the windings of Bankers
From this some very interesting develop
ments were made. The Directors Journal of
the Old Granville Bank was produced, and it
showed some beautiful things. For instance
iu l840, a law was passed making all bills of
less denomination than S5, absolutely void,
and prohibiting all persons from receiving
such small bills. Hence the Bank, if it
could get such bills in circulation, hope il
would not be compelled to redeem them.-
The Board of Directors, therefore, ordered a
large amount of these bills, some one hun
dred thousand dollars, to be put in circula-
ton, and with these unlawful, void, and
fraudulent small bills, which the Bank hoped
itwould not be liable TO redeem, the Cashier
should take up the large bills of the Bank,
and leave this large amount of worthless
small bills in the hands of the people. Gen.
Goddard, whig as he is. fairly blushed to his
ears as he read this order. And this is one
