DR.. Rogers Liverwort and Tar,


A SAFE.and certain cure for Coughs, Colds,
n Group, Asthma, Consumption Of the Lungs,
Splitting ofBood, Bronrht's, Hopping Cough, and
all Pulmonary Affections.
A Lovely Young Lady cured of Consumption.
u The following is from the pen Of VIM. y.
Lavison, ESP, the disins uished editor OF the U
). Military and Naval Argus, under date New
York. January 26, 1850. What could be more
conclusive!
at is seldom we permit ourselves to occupy
a space in these columns to speak in praise of any
article in the patent medicine way; but when we
see the life of feow.creature saved by the use OF
any medicine whatever, we consider it as our
right, il not our duty, to give simple statement
of facts. that others may, in like manner, be bene-
fitted. The care which has induced US 10 pen
this article was that ofa young lady ofour acquain-
tance, who by frequent exposure to the night air,
contracted Cold which settled on the Lungs b.
fore its ravages could be stayed (Ihis occurred
two years ago this winter) Various remedies
were used but with very little effect or benefit
The Cough grew worse, with coplous expectora-
lion, and the sunken eye, and pale, hollow cheeks,
told plainly that pulmonary disease was doing its
worst on her delicate frame. The family physi-
clan was consulted, and although he would not ad-
nit to the young lady that she really had the Con-
sumption. yet he would give no encouragement as
to a cure. At this crisis her mother was persua-
ded to make use of bottle OF Dr.. Rogers Com
pound Syrup of Lverwort and Tar, and we are
happy 10 state she was perfectly cured in less than
three months ny this medicine alone, after even
hope was destroyed. 1t is useless TO comment on
such case as this, for the simple truth will reach
where polished fiction never can. If any doubt
the authenticity Of this statement let them call at
this otice.-U. S.. Military and Naual Argus, No.

The Charleston Marcu1y is not willing
to do anything to promote the election Of
Pierce and King. Hear it:
Eve don't object to the election Of the
democratic candidates, nor do we suppose
there will be anything but trihing opposition
to them in the State. But we have several
unconquerable objections to becoming their
partizans, and disturbing ourselves and 9th

Our objections are these:

most distinguished men, the only men capa-
Die OF giving consistency to its counsels and
vlgor to Its movements,-wheni it disOwns
Its leaders and representatives, and for mo-
tves Of temporary advantage, crowns with
Its highest honors obscure men, it ceases in
any respectable sense, to be party, and
becomes MERE HERD OF sPOILSMEN.-
We have no ambition to labor in such a
crowd
''2. The difference in respect to general
politics between the whig and democratic
parties, has almost wholly disappeared; and

In pursuance OF previous notice. the citizens of
Bodcau Township, Hampstead county, Ark, met
at Obed Roberts on the oath of June, 1852. for

iect of Internal improvements and after quite an
interesting speech by Gel. Dockery, the meeting
was farther organized by calling J. T. Richardson
to the CHAIR and appointing d. J. Montgomery
secretary
On motion of D. P Satterwhte the chair was
requested tc appoint committee to draft, and re-
port resolutions expressive of the sense of the
meeting, whereupon the chair announced the fol-
lowing persons as said committee, viz: B. F.

James Wyhe, d. j. Montgomery, and D. P Sat-
terwhte and after few minutes absence the
committee returned with the following preamble
and resolutions which after being read was adopt
ed by decided majority.
WHEREAS. We believe the resolutions adopted
at the late Railroad meeting in Carouse Township
in county, for the advancement of central
railroad, injurious and prejudica to our inter-
ests. Therefore,
Resolced, That we deem the proposed route
from Gaines Landing to Fulton the most practical
route.
Reso!red, That we opposed to a repeal or
modification OF an act passed by our last egisa-
ture. distributing the proceeds of the five hundred
thousand acre donation among the counties
Resolcea, That we are opposed to any law being
enacted to force any section of the State or any
county to loan. apply, their portion of the pro-
ceeds of said donation for the purpose of construct
ing central Railroad; or any other inter,el i,.:-
provements contrary to the wishes of the citizens
thereof. t.aa
Resotuei, That we deem all laws taxing the
citizens OF any State for any other purpose thar
for revenue CONTRARY to their wishes) rrepubli-
can and dangerous to any republic.
Resotced, That we are in favor of the route from
Gaines Landing to Fulton, known as the Southern
route, and believe it the most practical and expe-
dent route across the State.
Resolved, That we are in favor of applying the
proceeds of the 100000 acre donation, the Swamp
land donation, and all other available funds for the
construction of a central and Southern Railroad
ResolUed, That we approve of the organization
that has been made of the Southern Railroad and
that we will give it our hearty support

the present candidates for representatives in the
next State Legislature, for Hampstead county
and that manifest it by nominating PETER
TIDwELI., Esq, for representative in the next
State Legislature whose patriotism we hope, will
sustain our resolutions, Notwithstanding we are in
the minority.
Resoircd, That a copy of the proceedings of this
meeting be sent to the Washington Telegraph y
and The Arkansaw Traveller" with a request to
be published, and that all other papers favorable
to the enterprise be requested to copy

AS fathers love their daughters better than sons,
and mothers love their sons better than daughters,
so do sisters feel towards brothers more constant
sentiment of attachment than towards each other.
None of the little vanities, heart-burnings and
jealousies that, alas for poor human nature! are
but too apt to spring up in female hearts. can Tor,
at all events, should) arise between brother and
sister; each is proud of the success of the other
because it cannot interfere with self-nay, on the
contrary is fattering to self. Hence, il there be
bond of family union more free iroru the selfish
blots that interrupt all others, it is that which
lists between an affectionate sister and brother.

Gen Franklin Pierce (says the n. Y. IineS)

abilities Franklin, the son, was educated at col

for another, he was elected to Congress, in 1888,
and reelected in 1885. He was elected U. 5.
Senator in 1887, but failed to distinguish himself
at all and resigned in 1912, and returned to the
practice of the law. After the accession OF Mr..
Polk he was offered the Attorney Generaship,
but declined it. When the Mexican War broke
out he was appointed Colonel of the New England
regiment Before the regiment was raised va
cancy occurred in the office of Brigadier 6eneral
of the Third brigade, consisting of the Ninth,
New England regiment) the Twelfth, raised i'll
Texas, Arkansas, and other Southern States, and
the Fifteenth, raised in Ohio and Wisconsin. He

Gushing, and Sterling Price. He was Superin-
tendent of the recruiting service and took an ac-
tive part in raising the troops. He took command

tepec, after which he resigned his commission and
returned home.
These are the leading incidents of his life Po-
litcal friends WILL of course discover variety of
interesting incidents concerning his military ca
reer
Gen. Pierce is married and has three children.
His personal appearance is very good, and his
manners easy and agreeable. he is very
thorough going partisan, as New Hampshire De
mocrats are apt to be. He was nominated for the
Presidency by the Democratic State Convention,
which met at Concord on the Sth of January last,
but wrote letter declining. He had better write
another letter of the same sort, now, 81 sU

Too MUCH FOR HUMAN ENDURANCE.-we heard
a pretty good story few days since, about good
old deacon some where out in York State" which
was something after this wise:
He was one of those upright, dignifed sort of
men who makes it rule to perform their duty,
and then make the best of the matter, however
the event may turn OUT but everything on his farm
was kept in the neatest order 1t had got to be
quite late in the season for moving, and still the
deacon had fine piece of grass, which he had been
unable to cut on account of press of other mat
ters so one beautiful day he put on large force,
and by noon he had it all down and spread about
in nice order when there came up a shower and
wet it, After the shower the old gentleman came
out and walked about perfectly cool' and the
next day he had it again spread to dry about noon
there came up another shower; well out came the
deacon again with a long face, and the dignifed
air becoming one in his station, looked at the hay
and walked into the house. The next day being
pleasant he had the hay dried, loaded and driven
into the barn. into which they had got Just as an
other shower had began to fall. The deacon con-
graduated himself that he had finally succeeded in
securing the hay, when gust of wind struck the
barn, rushing through and completely sweeping
the hay scattering it to the four quarters and tear
ing the barn doors from their hinges one of which,
hitting the old gentleman, Frustrated him in the
mud, and fell top of him. After the door had
been removed from him he surveyed the ruins for
few moments and then exclaimed: swell,
think it time for me to express my sentiments
