hope may be the of thousands OF my fellow
creatures being relieved from that dreadful disease,
rheumatism. My wife has been afflicted with it for 20
years, most of the time suffering eXcruciating pains in
every part Of her body. Having appetite whatever
she was reduced to almost skeleton. So violent were
the pains that she seldom could sleep without taking
large doses of opium. Every joint was sweed very
much, and her knees hands and neck covered with
large humps. She could do no kind Of work. the snews
and muscles being hard and contracted that her limbs
were drawn together, that she obliged be in
bed constantly In this condition she had been for 20
years without getting any relief from every thing
she used until she commenced the use of H. g. FAR
RELLS ARABIAN IMMINENT, the frat bottle of which
produced great change. She has used five bottles
and the swengs have nearly all gone down; pain has
enterey left her; she sleeps well and soundly is
neshy than ever she was iher life has excellent ap
petite and spins and sews all day. BY the of few
bottles more she must be well as she was II

l'EosoRIPrIoN-1hey who are constantly
abusing the Know Eothings for wishing to
limit or prescribe the political privileges of
foreigners, are engaged, according to the fol-
lowing in prescribing American citizens from
reading the Journals of their own choice, and
prosecuting their individual business accor
ding to their own notions. The american
Organ" the new native American paper start
ed in Washington City, thus speaks of some
of the means resorted to by the Administra-
ton and its subordinates in the city of Wash
ington, to coerce American citizens to sustain
them:
"The office holder dare not select his read
ing matter. The merchant dure not select
his advertising medium. The relations of
consumer and manufacturer are no longer
subject to individual choice but are prescribed
by certain political wire-pullers high in favor
with the executive the cabinet, and their
subordinate military favorites. The mechan-
ic dare not whisper the name of an opposition
paper The milk man is asked what paper
he reads
"Spies are posted at every corner, perjurers
are rewarded with Office; felons offered to as
certain the political associations of business
