N - the first and only
s,Tl.AssS discovery of any
~ EXTERNAL prePa-
ration that has power to restore "ISsEN-
sIBLE PERsPIRArIoS." The skin being
the medium through which the blood
drives of its impurities, is often locked
up by cold, whence occur RHEUMATISM,
Group, Coughs, Colds, Headache. Fevers,
and a thousand other complaints. Un-
stop the pores, and permit the humors to
pass out, aud all these diseases vanish at
once. This McAlister's All Healing
Ointment effects. For instance, in sick
and nervous headache, this Ointment is a
sovereign remedy.
u has cured cases Of FIVE, seven and
ten years standing, some Of fifteen and
twenty years, ard case of FORTY YEARS
standing. It is beyond all peradventure
the best remedy foi headache in the
world.
Ear-ache. deafness and dizziness cured
with equal success.
Take again the Quinsy Sore Throat.
One nights application is frequently suf-
iicient to cure this complaint. But in no
case will it fail. We challenge the
world on this point.
RHEUMArIsM.-In all cases Of swelled
limbs, contracted cords, pains and violent
Inflammation, there is no remedy so good, /,
we don't care what it is, or where it
comes from. Herein this Ointment is
to be found a certain remedy for rheuma-
tism. Let the sufferer look to it.
Asthma, oppression Of breathing, &c
In no class of difficulties does the oinl-
ment give greater satisfaction. The
heavy load upon the heart and difficult
respiration it removes almost in a day.
Wonderful, wonderful, is the virtue, the
untold power and goodness of the ALL
Healing Ointment.
In Hemerrhoids or piles, we have been
repeatedly told that il was the only arli
Gle ever made that would cure all cases
Of piles. And we are ready 10 believe
it.
The Erysipelas and Salt Rheum are
overcome without the least difficulty.
Liver complaint we have cured of TWEEN
ty years standing, and We hesitate not
to say that /: is one Of the best remedies
known. Persons would be astanisbed to
witness its effect.
Besides al the above diseases, it is a sover-
eign remedy for all eruptions Of the skin, sores,
pusiules, botches, &c, rendering the face
smooth and forever free from blemish. In all
cases Of infiammations, swellings. cuts. bruises,
and poisonous wounds, IL is n noble remedy.
And as for burns there is not its equal in the
land. To alhy pain, and remove the FIRE and
iuia rmatiOu, there is no compound in exis-
tence Of such value. Besides il heals the
place without leaving the slightest mark be-
hind. Equally valuable is it for old ulcer sores
and especially sore eyes, scald head, and disea-
ses Of the spine. and Of the nerves; also SWELL
ed or sore breasts, aud female complaints. II
is also n sovereign remedy for ague in the face,
and influenza. II is truly one Of the safest
and most valuable medicines the world ever
saw. No man regrets purchasing this Oint-
meat, because ne feels he will be benefited and
not deceived. Good always comes from its
use. Let the people then seek this medicine
and abide by IT, for il never deceived any body
yet, and we believe never will.

The LAwYER's SICK MOTHER
This story is related Of a lawyer
who has since attained eminence in
his profession. A case in which he
was engaged as counsel for the de
iendant came on at certain day.
AS he was insuficiently prepared,
he was very anxious to have the case
postponed few days, that he might
have further time for this purpose.
Unfortunately, there was a great
press OF business, and he knew that
this motion would be overruled,
unless some extraordinary reason
was alleged. Under these circum-
stances, he bethought himself Of an
expedient. Rising with his hand
kerchiel TO his face, he addressed the
Judge in accents of great apparent
emotion:
"May it please vour honor, | have
Just been informed that my mother
is at the point OF death. My emo
tions are too great for me TO proceed
in this case. move that il be post
poned until day after tomorrow"
This request would, OF course,
have been granted by the Court,
whose sympathies were strongly
excited in his behalf; but at this
moment, 10 the discontinue Of the
lawyer, and the amusement OF the
audience, the shrill voice Of his
mother was heard issuing from the
gallery:
"Ichabodl Ichabodl how often
have ! whipped you for lying?"
The case wasn't postponed, ,rnOr
was it gained by the afflicted counsel.

/ and progress, various developments

some of which are a real blessing to the

high. II claims to be a remedy for the
various injuries and diseases, TO which
horse "f1esh is heir" such as sore back,
scratches, sore shoulders, sprains. fstu-

stiffness and sand cracks, grease aad
mango, bites of animals and insects,
whitloes, contractions of the muscles,
&c. &c, in all which cases, its claims
as a curative, are now beyond question
But its merits as a curative-we assert
what we know, and what others testify
to-are not confined 10 the equine race.
II is equally, if not more efficacious, in
diseases Of a kindred character, with
which man is afflicted, such as boils,

almost impossible to go into the street

Of their rulers.

DRowNED-The NorUich ct. } Cour-
Ter relates a sad and singular case of
drowning, which occurred at Danielson-
vile, about two weeks since A young
lad of about fourteen-only son Of Mr..
Edwin Ely, of that place, and a member
of Mr.. Abbot's family school of Nor
wich, rose early III the morning with the
intention Of going fishing. But as it
was only 3 o'clock, his father remon-
strated with him and induced him to re-
turn to bed. AT o'clock he got up
again for the same purpose, but was
finally persuaded to wait until he should
get some breakfast. Immediately after
getting his breakfast, he harncssed a
horse into small wagon and started of,
as his parents supposed, for a trout
brook, however, he drove down to Kill
ingly Pond; and was afterwards seen
driving in various directions, sometimes
fast, sometimes slow sometimes in the
road, sometimes on the sides of the
road, ard sometimes in the field, urging
the horse over the roughcst places and
even over the stone fences; and at last
he was seen to drive with headlong
speed down the steep bank of the Quine-
baug river into the middle of the stream.
The horse was soon drowned, and the
boy foated off on the wagon seat, and
was also drowned. His body was re-
covered the next day. He had just re-
covered from sickness, and it is supposed
that he was laboring under mental de-
rangamcnt at the time of the above scci-
dent.

DJ-There are thousands of natives of
China in California, who are reckoned
among the most exemplary Of its in
habitants. Recently they have been in
troduced as operatives on the plantations
of Cuba, and arrangements arc making
for further supply. Some think that
the signs Of the times indicate, that the
current of immigration will be reversed /;
that the Monguls of the East will spread
themselves over the west, and finally
Isupplant and supersede the blacks of the
Southern States-what, then, will be-
come of the latter' They, too, must
move with the tide; return and re-
construct the fortunes Of their race in
Africa. And who can tell, but that it
may be in the course of Gods pfovi-
dence. that in the humiliations and
hardships of centuries, they may have
been gathering the elements, that are
destined to embody, in their native land,
q higher and more Christian form of

hoped not wholly chimerical) of the
