POT t f RS
PODOPHYLL N Pills.

THERE has long existed public de-
mand for an effective Purgative Pill, which
could be relied on as sure and safe in it's
operation. This has been prepared to
meet that demand, and an extensive trial
Of its virtues has conclusively shown with
what success it accomplishes the purpose
designed The witnesses for the truth of
this can be produced at any time il neces-
sary.
1t is complete substitute for Calomel
or MereurI, possessing the good proper
ties Of these powerful Minerals, without
any OF It's dangerous qualities.
The following extracts from Mineral
Works will show in what estimation the
POdophyllin is held.
The Eiectic Dispensdtory says - In
Chronic Repatis, objections Of the Liver)
there Is motifs superior in the whole range
OF Medicine; 1t being vastly more useful
than Mercurial agents, arousing the Liver
to healthy action, increasing the flow of
the bile, and keeping up those actions long
er than any other agent with which we are
acquainted
The United States Dispensatory says
1t is nm active and certain cathartic pro-
ducing copior liquid discharges without
much gripeing, or other unpleasant effects.
In some cases it may produce nausea and
even vomiting, but the same result is ooca-
sionally experienced from every active ca
thartic.
Hooper's Medical Dictionary says of
this plant, 1T is one of the most certain
and efhcacious cathartic vegetables which
have been examined in this country &c.
These Pills are slow but certain, and pow
erful in their operation in full doses. Per-
sons of ST ong constitution or Of costive
habits, C IN take from 3 to Pills, when n
thorough cathartic is required. Persons
of slender constitution, from to 2. Chill
dren from IA to Pill, according to age
aid circumstances. These Pills are appli
cable to all Bilious Diseases, Costiveness,
md hundreds of cases in which physic is
required, but can't be enumerated here,
but they suggest themselves to the reason
of every one. 1t is confidently believed
that this Pill will answer better purpose
than any thing which has hitherto been
available to the people.
When their virtues are once known the
public will no longer doubt wat remedy
to employ when in need of q thorough ca
thartic Medicine Being sugar-coated they
are not disagreeable to take, and being
purely vegetable no harm can arise from
their use when n cathartic is indicated.

POST OFFICE EMPLOYEES.

Though we have not much confidence that the
Post Office Department will ever be made what
il should be while il continues under the man
agement Of the General Government, it is well
enough to talk about reforming it. 1t will do
no harm to suggest reforms if they are never
adopted. A fruitful cause of the numerous
complaints which are made with reference to
the administration OF the Post Office is TO be
found in II fact that whenever a new man goes
into the White House, the persons Entrusted
with the handling of the mails are changed
from one end of the country to the other.
A few individuals are allowed to hold
the Office of postmaster for az indefinite period
but generally there is a change as often as once
in four years, and latterly man has been fortu-
nate if able to keep his Office even that length
of time. The consequence is, that every time
rev President takes his seat, the machinery
of The Post Office is thrown completely out of
gear, and long time is required to secure auy-
thing like regularity and system in the mail Ope-
rations OF the country.
Now. We know of but one remedy for this
giest evil. That remedy is to divorce the De-
partment from the business OF politics. msn
should be put into the Post Office, not because he
has performed service for this or that political
psrty-not because he has voted the Whig or
the Democratic tieket-but because he is a ca
psble, upright, intelligent man; and then he
should be kept in Office just so long as he per-
forms bis duty promptly and efficiently. We
are aware Of tie difficulty Of bringing about
this result. The Government Offices, including,
of course, the post Offices, are wanted to incite
men to perform political labor, to Inhame their
bosoms with patriotic srdor, aud make them en-
tbussstie and jealous. Most of our late polti.
cal struggles have been mere struggles for the
spells of efice-a contest between the ms and the
outs. Tie latter are obliged to promise great
eesl, AID if successful, they have a great work
e 10 in the way Of performance. Al who hsye
