FOR THE COMPLETE CURE OF
Coughs, Colds, Influenza, Asthma, Bronchitis
Splitting Of Blood, and all other Lung
Complaints tending 10
CON MPT N.
THIS preparation is getting into use all
l. 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 saying it is one OF the
best, if not the very best Cough Medicine now
before the public. II almost Invariably re-
lieUes and not Unfreguentiy cures the very gorst
eases. 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
II 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:-"I
hare been using your Liuersoort aud Tar verg
extensively IN my practice for three years past,
and, IL is NTH pleasure state my belief IN ITS
SUPERIORITY OVER ALL OTHER ARTICLES nth Which
I am acquainted, for which tits recommended"
Messrs. Fitzgerald 4 BenDers, writing from
Waynesville, N. c., say:-"The Liverport
and Tar is becoming daily more popular in this
country AND WE THINK JUSTLY so. AL Dho
hare tried ii speak az eoD,mendable terms of IL,
and say 10 is beneficial in alternating tie COM
plants for which IL is recommended"
Our Agent in Pickens District, s. c., Mr.. s.
r. McFall, assures us 'that he uses 10 'cifh
great benefit in his own family, and recon-
mends it to his neighbors." lie 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. have hope!

AYERS PILLS.


A NEW and singularly successful remedy for the
II cure Of all Bilious diseases = COstiyeness, lndi-
gcstiun, Jaundice, DrOpsy, rheumatism, Fcve-si
GOut, Humors, Nervousness, lrritability, lnhamma-
lions, Headache, Pains in the Breast, Side, Back,
and Limbs, Female Complaints, &c, &c. Indeed
very few the diseases in which Purgative Mcdi-
cine is not more or less required, and much sick
ness and suffering might be prevented il harm
less but olectual Cathartic were more freely used.
No person feel well while costive habit OF
body prevails besides it soon generates serious and
often fatal Diseases which might have been avoided
by the timely and iudiciOus use of good purgative.
This is alike true of Colds, Feverish symptoms, and
Bilious arrangements. They all tend to become or
produce the deep seated and formidable dstempers
which load the hearscs all over the land. Hence 4
reliable family physic is of the first Importance to
the public health and this Pill has been perfected
with cOnsummate skill to meet that demand. An
extensive trial of its virtues by Physicians Profess
sors, and Patients, has shown results SURPRISING
any thing hitherto known Of any medicine. Cures
have been effected beyond belief were they not sub
stantated by persons of such exalted position and
character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth.
Among the eminent gentlemen to whom we are
allowed to refer for these facts, are

geon of New York City.

Port of Boston, and GeOlogst for the State Of Mas

The I"telligeneer is occupied to-day by
news items and the republication of the
late able speech Of Mr.. Chandler against
the Nebraska bill. .....
The Union publishes the reply of ex-
Governor Steele to Major Ripley's re-
joinder upon the subject of the superin-
tendency of public works. The editor
says that this is to be the last of the
controversy in his columns, the contes-
tants having become too personal for the
Union, &c. The Union further describes
how the Secretary of the Treasury has
disbuIsed the life-boat fund entrusted te
him. Far Play" an " intelligent Gu
ban," as the editor says, occupies two
columns of the Union with an essay OF
the Black Warrior case.
The Sentinel rejoices over Mr.. Fill

speech, wherein it is reported that
In his speech at Vicksburg he spoke O

BALTIMORE, April I4-l0P.M.
learn that the receipts of the Lovegrove
Concert will not be so much as was at first
supposed. After paying all expenses, it is
thought that the net receipts will reach pro-
badly $1,000 to $500.
The call for town meeting to burn in eff gy
the proprietors of the American, Patriot, Ar
gus and the Messrs. Sherwood, seems to have
died out. The papers took no notice whatever
OF the affair Some scurvy fellow, to vent spite
upon the Argus, last night took down the sign
IN front of the Office, and broke it up. A bad
heart must have conceived this pitiful outrage.
News from Europe to-day crowded upon us
thick and fast. Scarcely had oneAsteamer
been telegraphed. with its advance in bread
stufis, declarations of war; &C., until the light
ming brought intelligence of another at Hall
fax with still later accounts. The aspect of
European affairs is now more positively war
like than ever. The Gar has treated the
courier who carried out the ultimatum of Eng
land France, with contempt, and sent him
home as unworthy the dignity of a reply.
The two great nations have, therefore openly
declared war, and all Europe seems to be in
arms The time has passed for negotiations
except at the cannon mouth Nicholas stands
upon his reserved rights, and, it would seem,
wants to fight.
The monetary world is convulsed. Bread
stuffs have taken another decided and un.
looked for advance. The effect on our market
to-day was electric.
After the news was made public, -four jumped
up 90 to IS cts. and 81 per barrel There was
an active speculative demand, and sales in all
were made of some 5000 bbls. at S7,S7t. So.

Grain is also held higher, with wheat and
corn some to 10 cts per bushel, but no sales
were made after the news

is filled with choice selections and origi-

PROGRESS.

The determination to push on the AL.
exandria, Loudon and Hampshire railroad
to speedy completion, resolved on at the
meeting of the stockholders of that COM
pany held day or two since in Alexan.
dria, Is to be a great thing for Washington,
as we'll as for the country to be tributary
to the work. 1t is to traverse one of the
most valuable agricultural regions of Vir.
GINA, which, notwithstanding its prox.
unity to Alexandria, Washington, George
town and Baltimore, is at present cut of
from a market by the want of direct con-
nectien with either city by water or rail.
In these days it will be recollected, with
out one or the other such means of trans.
portation, a region is considered out of
the world, as it were. The proposed
road IN its way to the unexhaustible coal
fields of Hampshire, passes through the
finest country for great distance that
we ever saw; there being no better lands
IN America for yielding good returns to
the inproyer, than those known as the
"Loudon lands" of.Virginia, which
really extend far beyond the boundaries
Of Loudon county on all sides. The road
must double the value of every acre with
IN five miles Of its line, laying ten miles
above Alexandria. This increase in the
