CONCENTRATED ESSENCE OF JAMAI-

CONCENTRATED ESSENCE OF JAMAI-
~ CA GINGER, popular remedy, which is
highly useful a Stomachic and Cordial. In
cases of FIatulency, ordinary Darrhna, cipient
Cholera, Cholera Morbus, and all cases of prostra-
ton of the digestive functions it will be found par
ticularly serviceable. This Essence is warranted
to possess in concentrated form all the valuable
properties of the Jamaica Ginger, ana is free from
all irritating other properties of an injurious ten
dency. To persons recovering from Fever, or 9th
diseases, it is recommended tonic, and will
prove most pleasant restorative, rendering it
highly valuable in domestic practice. During the
summer months, when the system becomes Ianguid
or depressed, or from exposure to the heat of the
sun, few drops, added to a tumbler Of water, will
make it healthful and refreshing drink, at the
same time correcting the bad effects of cold water,
when used too freely. Prepared by

FOR THE AMERICAN ORGAN

Among the last appointments to $1,000 offices
by the administration is that of an individual named
Henry Major. This man, from position Of obscu-
rity in Alexandria, fell under the patronage of the
Theological Seminary at that place, and became a
minister Of the Protestant Episcopal Church, and
few years since saw proper TO renounce his faith
and went over to Popery. His new father" for
while employed him to write for petty Catholic
journal in New York, and now we find him in the
service of Campbell, Forney 4 Pierce Such a
man of course is preferred to a deserving and
meritorious Protestant, if he be also an American.
Is Mr. Major rewarded for his apostacy What
else brings him to the favorable notice Of this be-
nevolent and liberal-minded foreign partyg T.
