the tumor on his face, which he supposed to

eve, and was so large ms TO effect seriously his
vision. The base Of the tumor appeared TO he
about the size of a quarter of n dollar, and
growing from the face in a conical form, at
least an inch lie then promised the Doctor
to visit him at Murfreesborough, which he
did during the next week. After an absence
of about three weeks he returned. | again

Complaints tending TO
CONS TION.
THIS preparation is getting into use all
Il over our country. The numerous letters
We receive from our various agents, informing
us of cures effected in their immediate neigh
borhoods, warrant us in saving it is one of the
best, if not the gery best Cough Medicine now
before the public. II almost Invariably re-
Eeves and not unfre9uenHq cures the Uery ucorSt
cases. When all other Cough preparations
have failed, this has relieved the patient, as
Druggists, dealers in Medicines, and Physi-
clans can testify. Ask the Agent in your
nearest town, what has been his experience
of the effects of this medicine. If he has
been selling it for any length of time he will
tell you
IT Is THE BEST MEDICINE EXTANT.
Below We give few extracts from letters
We have received lately regarding the virtues
of this medicine.
DIR. S. S. Oslin, of Knoxville, Ca, says:-"l
hare been using your LiUer1oOrt and Tar Uerg
extensively in my practice for three years past,
and, IL is wih pleasure / state my belief in ITS
SUPERIORITY OVER ALL OTHER ARTICLES NTH wi,fch

Messrs. Fitzgerald & Benners, writing from
Waynesville, N. c., say:-"1He LiveruOrt
and Tar Is becoming daily more popular IN this
country AND WE THINK JUSTLY 50. All 'cho
have tried il speak IN comR,enddble terms of 1t,
and say 10 as beneficial in alternating tie COM
plants for ,chieh IL is recommended"
Our Agent in Pickens District, 5. c., Mr. s.
r. McFall assures us ''that he uses 10 'ciih
gredt benefit in his own family, and recon-
mends it to his neighbors." He gives an in
stance of negro woman in his vicinity, who
had been suffering with disease Of the Lungs
for years, attended with severe cough, who
was relieved by the Liverwort and Tar.
Such are the good reports we hear of this
Medicine from all parts of the South. For a
report of the surprising cures it has perform
ed in the Western and Northern and Eastern
States we would invite the suffering patient
to read the pamphlet which accompanies each
bottle. To ALL we say, hare hope hare hope!

SERANADE TO GOVERNOR BIGLER--Last eve- ming, number of the personal and political friends of Governor Bigler, of Pennsylvania, citizens and 'sojourners at Washington, desir- ing to compliment that gentleman, who is stop- ping at Willards' Hotel, engaged Prosper's Cornet Band, and at 10 o'clock seranaded him with a number of spirited, patriotic airs. Quite crowd was present. At the close of the mu- sic, Governor Bigler was called for, when he came forward and delivered one of his sensible, comprehensive speeches, for which he is noted, much to the satisfaction of his hearers In his speech, the Governor alluded to the recent de- feat of his party by the enemies of the consti- tuition, and expressed the firm conviction that, notwithstanding fanatcism and intolerance, like dark pail, now overspread the land, the sun ofthe Union-saving democracy would soon shine out dispensing the mists of error, preserving in- violate that charter of freedom, the constitution of our country.
