MORE TESTIMONY FROM ILLINOIS.
The following extract from a letter of Rev Johr
MAthers, is worthy Of perusal by every Dyspeptic
JAcKsoSvrLLE, August :, l849 DR. Green-Dea,
Sir have had the Dyspepsia for about five years
and about two years ago attacked with the Bron-
chtis also. These two diseases combined perfectly
prostratod mo, and compelled me to cease from the
labors Of my calling ! am member of the Illinois
conference of the Methodist Episcopal church, and
last spring year ago, my friends had expectation
oi my recovery.
The great difficulty, il not the only one, is the
scidty of my stomach-the purest water everything
eat or drnk--insiantly becomes acid and in few
moment throw it up. At times it seemed to me
that stream Of acid from some part of my system
was constantly pouring its lf into my stomach. and
this acid inaamcd my throat and breast. or made my
Bronchitis worse: my physicians say they never saw
per afflicted with such acid stomsch-they
do nothing for me, so lar affecting cure. have
used he various alkaies. but think th"y only ag-
gravate the disease. it is true they give me little
relief for few moments.
But suppose you would like to know the effect
produced on me, by the oxygenatcd Bitters. Al
though am not cured, the medicine has done more
for me than all my physicians and their medicines.

FUGITIVE SLAvEs.-Judge GRIER, in a
late case, decided that the mere extending to
fugitiVes the common charities life does
not make persons liable under the law. As
the language he employs is important, we
quote it:
aft is too plain for argument that this act
does not intend to make common charity a
crime, or treat that man guilty Of an offense
against his neighbor, who merely furnishes
food, lodging, or raiment tc the hungry,
weary or naked wanderer, though he be an
apprentice or SLAYER. On the contrary, it
contemplates not only an escape of the
slave but the intention of his master to re-
claim him. 1t points out the mode in which
his reclamation is to be made, and it is for
an unlawful interference or hindtance OF
this right of reclamation, secured to the
master by the constitutions and laws, that
this action is given. The harboring made
criminal by this act, then, requires some
other ingredient besides mere kindness or
charity rendered to the fugitive. The inten-
ton or purpose which accompanies the act
must be to encourage the fugitive in his de-
sertion Of his master, to further his escape
and impede and Illustrate his reclamation
This act must evince an intention to elude
the vigilance Of the master, and be calcula'
ted to obtain the object"

BAnEs n rms WEsr.--In organizing the
new Western States and framing constitu-


BANKS N rHE WKsr.-In organizing the
new Western States and framing constitu-
tions and laws for them, Modern Democracy
or more properly Radicalism and LocofocO-
ism were in the sscendent. The conse-
Huence was that legalized system Of Bank
ing was prohibited in many ofthem, and the
people were left to the merciless exactions
Of brokers and shayers who preyed upon
their substance without any particular re-
gard to conscience or law. But the people
are becoming tired OF this state ofthings and
begin to look for relief in well regulated
Banking system. In Iowa, very many who
have hitherto acted with the dominant par
ty, are 1aboring TO this end. and the people
of Wisconsin have recently voted by ma
iority Of over 10000 for the bill passed at the
last session of their Legislature. The truth
is thEt no commercial community can do
without Banking establishment, and in
stead of Radicalism directing its blows at
the abolition Of the system, it would more
profitably direct its efforts and better ad-
vance the prosperity of the country, by la
boring to establish such system of Bank
ing, and throw around it such Safeguards as
will, nearly as possible, avoid any material
losses to the community, while the advan-
tageS will he fully and effectually secured.
But such course would be rather incon-
sistent with that principle which aims to
overthrow everything.
