In justice to the proprietors, and for the
benefit of the afflicted, | feel it my duty to
state publicly, the remarkable cures that
have been effected in my family by the use
Of the Mustang Liajment. A Negro of mine
had what was called Bone Felon, OF whit
low on her middle finger; the pain was most
intense and excruciating. The Inflammation
had been so extensive that the whole finger
had almost become mass of corruption, and
the only hope of saving her hand, and per-
haps her life, appeared to have it cut off. As
her general health was very delicate. the
physician advised us to try the Mustane
Lsmimem few days, till she could be sent to
a surgeon in Columbus, as it could do no
harm, and might prevent modification. To
tho astonishment Of the doctor, and myself.
the pain soon ceased, the inflammation suhsi
ded, and the wound rapidly healed. ,rba
finger is now perfectly well and sou,,d, One
OF my boys was severely burned, The sl;n
was entirely taken off from the knee - ~, =
ankle. The Mustang J>nsimeat was freely
and nothing else was used. The
relief and cure rsas almost s,eyend ba1;ef

Were perfectly healed. consider it aa in.

SPIRIT OF THE MORNING pREss

The Inieltgeneer of this morning is de-
voted to news, embracing, as usual, many
items of great interest.
The Union discusses ..the counter Or
ganiZation and the Administration, :"
showing that the Hon. Daniel s. Dickin.
son is now avOwedly a vehement political
enemy of the President, that Messrs.
Brady and Cooley have held like rela-
ton to that functionary for long time
and that Messrs. Bronson and Lester were
originally most emphatic Free Sellers; the
latter being one of the Gerlitt Smith and
Garrison gang in 1910. The same paper
presents it's readers with additional evil
dence of the differentiation of the Cuba
scheme.
The Sentinel continues its " indepcnd-
ent support" of the Administration in
well written leader, and sundry minor
articles. The main point nissue between
the Administration and its " independent
supporters" who are thursting their knives
IN its back, is whether the late Bar lburn.
ers are or are not now on the Baltimore
platform. The former hold that as they
have entirely ceased their opposition to
the fugitive slave law, have washed their
hands Of all association with " free soil"
and pledge themselves to the Baltimore
Democratic platform, their past course
should be overlooked The latter insist
that they can do nothing which will en-
title them to return to the Democratic
party with equal privileges. This is
the glst Of the controversy. 1t seems
to US that our neishbor of the Senti.
mel Is hardly ingenious in making
up his case. Thus, he insists that John
Van Buren, has not yet pledged himself
to the Baltimore and Syracuse platform:
when every body is we'll aware that he
as proclaiming from the stump his hearty
aequiescence in them, an entire acoui.
escence in the Fugitive Slave Law in.
cluded. His last proclamation Of this
sort, made on the night of the 4th inst.
in Tammany Hall, appeared in Saturday s
Herald, which journal having rated him
soundly for failing to make it, now dashes
ut him for doing so. Our ncighbor also
holds that paragraph in late number
of the New York City True Democrat
wherein the editor urges the {" free" Dem.
ocracy to the polls for the soft ticket, is
etidence for their continued utilization
with Free Soilism-overlooking the sub
sequent explanation Of the editor, who
shows that the words printed Free
Democracy" were written True Dem.
