Judge Hudson on Small Notes.

A paragraph has been published in the newsPa
pers to the effect that Judge Hudson. at the late
term of his court in Grcenbriar, charged the Grand
Jury that it was of no use for them to lndlct any
one for the offence Of passing small bills, as all
were more or less guilty, himself not excepted
The Butetourt papers contradict the statement
and give the Judges remarks on the SUBJECT as
follows:
"Grand Juries are in the habit Of disregarding
the provisions of the law on the subject OF passing
small bills, probably for the reason that all of us
are more or less Justly chargeable with its viola
ton or, probably, from general opinion, very
prevalent, that the necessities of trade and the
scarcity Of specie, render some such currency ne
cessary But, il is my duty to inform you, that no
plea of necessity can ever exist that will justify
Won in disregarding the law; and it is your duty
to find true bill against every violator without
respect to persons"

HOBENSA CKS WORM SYRUP
An article founded upon scientific princi-
Yfcs, compounded with purely vegetable sub
stances, being perfectly safe when taken, and
can be given TO the most tender infant with
decided benefcial effect Where Bowel
Complaints and Diarrhoea have made them
weak and deSdlitated, the tonic properties Of
my Worm syrup are such, that il stands
wothout an eanaa in the catalogue of medi-
cines in giving tone and strength to the stom-
ach, which makes it IN infalible remedy for
those afflicted with Dyspepsia. The aston
ishing cures performed Sy this syrup, after
physicians have failed, is the best evidence
OF its superior efficacy over a@ others.
THE TAPE WORM
This is the most difficult worm TO destroy
ofall that infest the human system, 1t grows
TO an almost indefinite length, becoming so
coiled and fastened in the intest;nes and
stomach, affecting the health so sadly, ~ to
cause St Vitus' Dance, Fits, SC, that those
afflicted seldom if ever suspect that Il is Tape
Worm hasteaing them 10 an early grave. In
order to destroy this worm very energetic
treatment must be pursued. Itwould, there
fore, be proper to take 6 to 8 of my Liver
Pills, so rs to remove all distinctions. that
the Worm Syrup may act direct upon the
worm, which must be taken in doses of 2
tablesPconfuls times day. These direc-
tons followed have never been known TO fail
in cutting the most obstinate case of Tape
Worm.

Although these works are distinguished
by the political shades above Indicated. vet
but II small portion of their contents is de-
voted To political subjects. 1t is their lnera-

value, and in that they stand confcsscdlv far
above all other journals ofthcir class. Black-
~ood, still under the fathcrly care of Christie

and is, at this time. unusually attractive, from
the serial works Of Bulwer and other literary
