Many years of trial, instead Of impair
ing the public confidence in this medicine,
has won for it an appreciation and notori-
ETY. by far exceeding the most sanguine ex-
pectations of its friends Nothing but its
intrinsic virtues AMI the uumistakable
benefit conferred on thousands of suffer-
ers, could originate AMI maintain the rep
utation it enjoys. While many inferior
remedies thrust upon the community, have
failed and been discarded, this has gained
friends by every trial, conferred benefits.
on the afflicted they can never forget, ami
produced cures too numerous and too re-
markable TO be forgotten. -.S
While it is a fraud on the public to prs-
tend that any one medicine will infallibly
cure-still there is abundant proof that
the CHERRY PICTORIAL does not only as
general thing, but almost invariably, cure
the maladies for which it i; empl Dyed
As time makes these facts wider AMI bet
ter known, this medicine has gradually BE-
come the b'st reliauc, of the afflicted,
from the log -cabin of tn. American peas
ant, to the palaces of European Kinss.-
Throughout this entire country, in every
State, city, AMI in Iced almost evary ham,
let it contains, CHERRY PEcroRAL is known
as the best remedy extant for diseases OF !.
the Throat AMI Lungs, AMI in many for
elgn countries, it is comin5to beextsnsive4
iy used by their most intelligent Physi.
clans. In Great Britain, France ana Ger
many, where medical sciences have reach
ed their highest perfection. CHERRY Pee
ToRAL is intro duced, and in constant use
in the Armies, Hospitals, Aims House,
Public Institutions, and in do nestle prac-
tice, as the sursst remedy their attending
Physicians can employ for the m1rs dan
gerous affections of the lungs. Also IN
milder cases, and for children it is safe,
pleasant, AMI efectual to cure. In fact,
some of the most f1atterin5 testimonials
we receive have been from parents who
have found it efficacious in cases particu-
larly incidental to chillIool.
The CHERRY PICTORIAL is manufactured
by Chemist, and every ounce of it under
his own eye, with invariable accuracy AMI
care. 1t is sealed and protected by law
from countedsits, consequently can be re-
lied on as genui ne without adulteration.
We have endeavored here TO furnish the
community with medicine OF such intrin-
sic superiority and worth as should COM
mend itself to their Condolences remedy
at once safe, speedy and effectual, which
this has by repeated and countless trials
proved its elf to be; and trust by great care
in preparing it with chemical accuracy, of
uniform strength to afford Physicians new

results, and the afflicted with remedy
that will do for them all that medicine can
do. Prepared and sold by JAMES G. AVER,

THE Pork TRADE FOR lS53.-It is
hardly possible TO give any definite opin-
ion, or indeed to form any correct conclu.
sion as TO the amount of pork to be
packed the coming season or of.he price
at which the market will open.
But we will hazard an opinion iha,
prices cannot differ materially from those
