THIS remedy has won for itself such notoriety
from its cures Of every variety of pulmonary disease,
that it is entirely unnecessary to recount the evil
dences of its virtues in any community where it
has been employed So wide is the field of its use
fitness, and so numerous the cases Of its cures,
that almost every section of the country abounds
In persons publicly known who have been restored
from alarming and even desperate diseases of the
lungs by its use. When once tried its superiority
over every other medicine of its kind is too appar-
ent to escape observations and where its virtues
known, the public no longer hesitate what antidoe
to employ for the distressing and dangerous affec-
tons of the pulmonary organs which are incident
to our climate. And not only in formidable at
tacks upon the lungs but for the milder varieties
of COLDS, CouGHs, HoARsENEss, &C.. and for
CHILDREN it is the pleasantest and safest medicine
that can be obtained.
As it has long been in constant use throughout
this section, we need not do more than assure the
people its quality is kept up to the best that it
has been, and that the genuine article is sold by

This is precisely what Mr.. Fillmore
did three years ago and for 50 doing
everv democratic party paper in the
country denounced him in the foulest
and most abusive terms that could be
coined. You will zee now that what
was deemed so vile and wicked an
abuse Of power Though in strict &C
cordance with his duty) in the sohig
president, will be lauded to the skies
as IN act of the hirest and noblest
patriotism in Mr.. Pierce the Demo.
cratic president. Such shameless in
consistances as this in both the old
parties, is just exactly what has caus-
ed such combinations among indepen-
dent high minded men of all parties,
as those which lately in different
places north and south, have upset the
calculations Of trading politicians by
electing to Office men who were not
known as candidates until the votes
we're counted. I have seen = paper
lately which I was assured was gen.
uine, upon which subscriptions were
already placed by responsiblespart;es.
to the amount Of about seven hun.
dred thousand dollars, as fund de-
voted to the freedom Of Cuba. As
it is always the money that makes
the mare Co." you can judge how
long it will be before sufficient will
have been secured to make this
Cuban mare go.
The city continues healthy with
the exception Of some considerable
scarlet fever which prevails still
among the children in various parts
Of the town. Preliminary measures
are being taken by parties here, to
have line of steamers in readiness
to run in connection with the Ope-
lousas Rail Road from Berwicks Bay
to Galveston, the moment the road
reaches the Atchafalaya. reducing the
time between N. Orleans and Texas
to some ten or twelve hours. c.
