Benton's Opinion Of Democracy.
A Washington letter-writer saws:

IA '"sii'b'oh iettci-"ihSi S"y''
Everybody here thinks the President has
got himself into another slippery place in
the Clemens letters. "Was there ever
such and Administrations" is in every mans
mouth. John Tyler's is actually relieved by
the contrast in the picture. People begin
to say, as tho man said who was blown up
by the juggler. "Nhat will the fellow do

it has cost so much time and labor TO build
up, is fast going hellward.

many years OF IIlls instead or linDa!rlnS the
public confidence in this medicine. has won for
it an appreciation and notoriety by far exceeding
the most sanSune expectation Of its friends. Mo-
thing but its intrinsic virtues and the unmstakea-
bic benefit conferred on thousands Of sufferers,
could originate and maintain The reputation it en-
joys. While many inferior remedies thrust upon
The community, have failed and been discarded,
this has gained friends by every trial. conferred
benefits on the afflicted which they can never for
get, and produced cures too numerous and too re-
markable TO be forgotten.
While it is fraud on the public 10 pretend that
any one medicine will infallibly cure--stil there
is abundant proof that the CHERRY PEcToRAL
does not only as general thing, but almost invN-
rably cure The maladiCs for which il is employed.
As time makes these facts wider and better
known, this medicine has gradually become the
best reliance Of the afflicted, from the log-cabin of
the American peasant, 10 The palaces of European
Kings. Throughout this entire country, in every
State, city, and indeed almost every haIn!ei il con-
iains, Cherry PECToRAL is known as the best
remedy cytont for diseases of the Throat and
Lungs, and in many foreign countries il is coming
to be ost extensively used by their most intelli-
gent physicians. In Great Britain, France and
Germany, where the medical sciences have reach
ed their highest perfection, Cherry PEoToRAL is
introduced, and in constant use in the armies, Hos
pitais, Aims Houses, Public Institutions, and IN
domestic practice, as The surest remedy their at
tending Physicians can employ for the more dam
gerous affections of the lungs. Also in miiier Ca
SEES, and for children il is safe, pleasant and cc-
tual 10 cure. In fact, some OF the most tHiering
testimonials we receive have been from parents
who have found il efgicacioUs in cases particularly
incidental 10 childhood.
The CHERRY PEcTpRAL is manufactured by 4
practical Chemist, and every ounce of it under his
own eye, with invarable accuracy and care
1t is sealed and protected by law from counter
feits, consequently can be relied on as genuine
without aduiteration.
We have endeavored here 10 furnish the commu-
nifty with medicine OF such intrinsic superiority
and worth as should commend itself TO their con-
fdence-a remedy at once safe, speedy and effect
ual, which this has by repeated and countless tri-
ais, proved itself 10 be; and trust by great care in
preparing ii with chemical accuracy, of uniform
strength, to afford physicians new agent on which
they can rely for the best results, and the afflicted
with remedy that will do for them all that med
cine can do. ... ... .-
