New YORK, September Is, 1852.
rs This is to certify that my child, three years
old, was troubled with worms some six months
l had tried several kinds of medicine, but none of
them done any good and it was not until / tried
DIR. MLane's celebrated Vermifuge that she found
any relief. 1 gave her the contents of one bottle
which brought from her a very large quantity of
worms, but they were socompletely cut to pieces it
was impossible to count them. My daughterfis now
doing well indeed she is completely restored to
health. | therefore take pleasure in rer6mmend-
ing 1t to parents. / would say, by all means keep
a supply of this valuable medicine constantly in
your houses. I have known many children to die
suddenly from the effects of worms. It also not
unfrequently happens that children are treated for
Group. when the choking and coughing is caused
altogether by the irritation of worms. Therefore,
we say again, keep it always in the house ; it costs
but little, and may be the means of saving life and
at any rate it will save physicians bills.

desirable tract of land, a portion of the
aA- Richards of Uaharie, lying in the coun-
ties of Randolph and Davidson, within 8 miles Of
Thomas Depot on the Central Railroad, and 9 milsy
from Normal College. The tract contains SIS Acrefs
heavily timbered, and all covered in original forest,
except about 100 acres. 1t is well adapted to the
culture of Tobacco, Wheat, Corn, &C., and presents
strong indications of containing valuable deposits
of GOLD and COPPER. Besides its fertility and
mineral resources, its proximity to the Railroad
Normal College and Glen Anna Female Seminary,
renders it very desirable property.

DIR. Afford at Normal College, who will visit the
premises with any one wishing to purchase.

Weep not for the early dead,
Sleeping in their narrow bed;
They are happier far than we,
Howsoever blest we be.

AT the residence of VIM. Roberts, ESQ, in Cleave-
land county, on the 29th of August, John L. Full
lenwider, in the 38th year of his age. He had been
an exemplary member of the Baptist Church for
more than four years; and his death was in conso-
nance with his life. As his end drew near, he ex-
pressed a perfect willingness to encounter the grim
monster, doubtless realizing the triumphant assn
rance of the Apostle, 1T is God who giveth us the
victory through our Lord Jesus Christ And
while the tenacity with which we naturally cling
to life, and the idea of severing the sweet assoeia-
tons of relatives and friends may have caused a
momentary regret to pass across his mind, still he
felt that to depart and be with Christ was far bet
ter. He was not only a christian, but he was a
patriot and a philanthropist. When the tocsin of
WarSwas heard upon our frontier, he volunteered TO
go forth in vindication of his country's honor and
reputation. For eighteen months or more, he was
in the war with Mexico, and nobly did he acquit
himself IN that short but sanguinary conflict.
He was an active and jealous Son of Temperance,
firmly devoted to the interests of the tri-eolored
Banner, showing himself at all times, an uncompro-
missing enemy of King Alcohol. Thus lived and
thus died one whose whole life was spent in doing
good and getting good:' who needed only to be
known to be honored and respected, and whose
memory will live not only in the hearts of his rela-
hves, but OF all who were associated with him.
He leaves behind three brothers and four sisters
and a large circle of friends to lament their IRE.

Judge Niblack.

Bya friendly call we had the pleasure yes
terday Of making the acquaintance OF Judge
Niblack, of the Circuit Court. Judge Nj
black is an unassuming gentleman, and ap-
parentIy very young for his prominent posi-
ton. He has a progressing appearance,
and might very readily and without much eff
fort, pass for good-looking man. He pre-
sides on the Bench with dignity, and appears
to be popular among those honest mon, the
lawyers. We hope the Judge may be as
successful in making friends on the Circuit
generally as he evidently has been in Evans
vile.

TrialOfihe Wards.

The Hardin (Ky.) Circuit Court commenc-
ed its session last Monday. The case OF the
Commonwealth Us. NJ. F. and r. J. Ward, Jr.
was called in the afternoon, and postponed
till next morning. The correspondent of the
Louisville Courier says:
The counsel for the defence, through Gov.
helm, signfied the probable readiness OF the
accused to be present, though it is not GER
tain but some effort will be made to give the
criminals separate trials, and then have that
of M. F. Ward continued to a subsequent
term.
A vast number of persons are in attend
ance, and many from great distance. Lou
isville is of course, largely represented, and
every half hour there are fresh arrivals from
that city. The two hotels in the village are
overrun with visitors, and lodgings are in de-
mand.
The friends OF the Wards, with their coun-
sci, occupy the Eagle House, while the attor-
neys and witnesses for the prosecution are at
Warfieid's Inn. Over one hundred and TWEEN
ty witnesses are present, summone by the
Wards, chiefly to prove the amiabili,y and
good character of the two prisoners. They
have also eighteen lawyers employed, and
most of them present.
II is reported that the health of Matt Ward
has not been so good az usual during the past
few days.
The correspondent of the Journal says the
Judge has decided that no detailed repor; OF
the testimony shall be made for publication
in the newspapers in any form. Nothing
will be allowed beyond brief sketches of the
general course OF the trial.

from him. she stepped into the house. He
dld not follow, but remained behind whistlng
to some eanaries hanging in their cage on

~ Geo. d. Prentice, the able and popu-
lar Editor Of the Louisville (ky.) Journal is
on a visit to Washington. The correspon-
dent of the N. Y. Express thus speaks OF
him:
Mr.. Prentice emigranted from Hartford CT,
to Kentucky, tweniy-three or twentyfour
years ago having previously distinguished
himself as the Editor Of the N. E. Weekly
Review, a literary journal published at Hart
ford. His first connection with the press,
occurred about The year 1921, and happened
in this wire as [ have been informed by q
venerable ex-printer Of Boston, Mr.. c., then
engaged in publishing the New London
Chronicle. Mr.. G. states that Mr.. Prentice
was introduced TO him the summer alter
wards by Judge Judson, as young gentle
man from College who was making short
visit TO New London for the benefit of tn e
salt cir. Mr.. Pentice was then invited to
accept the freedom of the printing Office" n
privilege of which he availed himself, and one
day being requested by Dir. c. to furnish him
with an editorial, he handed an article on the
"TIial OF Queen Caroline" then the absorb
ing subject of,he British and mericar press.
This article created a great sensation and
was copied into all the leading newspapers
of the United States. The author woke up
the next morning, and like Byron found him
sclffamous.
The Louisville Journal has long been the
leadin? newspaper Of the Ohio valley. For
wit, ofthe keenest description, it is unrival-
led. Its political and literary aticlcs arc of
the highest ability. and its principles high
toned and conservative. Undoubtedly, Il
main cause Of the long oscendaucy OF the
Wings in Kentucky is attributable to :hc
mastery ab lity and the unflinching spirit
uniformly displayed. by the Louisville Jour
nal.

land, of good character, foreman in print

Sabbath School superintendents. TO put
such persons and others on their guard, and
help to detect him, we repeat an accurate
description by which he can be known, even

of which he has none naturally, and changes
his appearance and name. We are author

~ 1t is said by some of the knowing ones

though yielding all enormous surplus, is not

the surplus for contingencies, and, in the
