RHEUMATISM.

This severe and painful disease has long
baffled the skill Of thousands Of our most eel
ebrated physicians Time and money have
been wasted in futile cndeavors to obtain
some embrocation that would perform cure |;
but all have failed except HuST's LrNIxrsr,
and that has been successful in almost every
instance in which it has been employed.
Rheumatism arises from different causes,
but most generally proceeds from colds, expo
sure to the weather, aud sleeping in damp
rooms. Those who are subject TO this COM
plant should avoid remaining IN damp places
too long Reader, IL you have the rheuma
tism, no matter how slight procure bottle
of that reu'edy, so celebrated under the name
of HuSr's LrSNESr, without delay, and apply
it thoroughly to the parts affected, and pain

of the meeting at Newark on Saturday last.
We regrett ted being absent, ,afer agreeing 10

previously been appointed in this county
for us to attend, and we were under oblga-
tons to be present at it. The truth is our
time is so occupied that it is very difficult
for US to find leisure to attend meetings of
The kind at all, however near.
We have seen several persons from Lick
ing, who were present at the meeting and
they all speak of it as the very best prepar-
atory county meeting they ever had in that
old Democratic county. That the demo-
Gratis were unusually wide awake and excl
ted on the great and extraordinary issues
thrust upon the country by the natiyeists.
