THE BOwELS.

All Of the common pills Of the dav. called
Vegetable, Indian, Cahar'ic. &c. claim that
they cure disease by purging from the bowels.
This is as far they go-they act upon the
bowels by irritating the mucaous membrane,
aud thus obtain an evacuation in the same man.
ner as the bowels are moved by eating some
thing that disagrees with the system. This is
truly an unnatural methed of restoring the sys-
tenn to health, by swallowing pills that irritates
and disagrees with it. Those who have taken
these common pills are well aware ofthe weak
and dehiliiaed condition their systems are left
in. After the securing operation of these dras-
tic purgatives is over the bowels are sore ard
feeble. and again become costive and bound
up. Honce arises dyspepsia and host of 9TH
er diseases. Railways Regulators never leave
the bowels in cos,ive condition, or occasion
pain or WEAKNESS in their operation.

EXTEND CAREER!
The 18th Volume of the Plym

The 9TH volume OF the Plym-
outh Weekly Banner will be commenced i'm
mediately after the expiration of the present
volume, and although it has at present per-
manent living patronage, it is the anxious de-
sire of its proprietor to increase its circulation
and usefulness.
In few weeks more, we shall commence
the third year of our connection with this es-
adjustment, and whilst We seek this as fit
opportunity to return our warmest thanks to
those who hare manifested an unfaltering de-
votion in its prosperity, we appeal to them at
the same time. to continue their exertions in
extending the circulation of the paper and its
advertising patronage
As heretofore the Banner will occupy an In
dependent position upon all topics which may
agitate the public mind-leaving its conduc-
tor free to vote as his own discretion ma die
tate; and when parties get upon our platform
we will sustain them. and when they abandon
it we will as promptly and freely rePudiate
them. We are conscientiously opposed to
the extension of slavery beyond its presen.
limits. and would gladly see it abolished
where il now exists; bat we are just as much
opposed to The use OF illegal and unjustifahle
means to accomplish these ends. We fail
out with no one for differing with us upon such
subjects, and feel justifable in expecting the
same liberality at the hands of others.
Both in our social and political intercourse
Win our kfienQS, we nave OOuOlicSS elIeu-
we know vel have, and who has not? Whilst
our faults may be of one character and those
of our neighbors partaking of another, chart
ty, mutual forbearanee and kindness may ap-
Plythe essential remedy; and so far as we
are ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS about special promi-
Sez-we shall necessarily strive TO avoid all
error. When this is done, irreconcilable en-
emies may bark and howl at our heels until
they mire and rot in their native filth.
1t is pleasure to have the good will and
patronage of every one. unless it has to be
I purchased at too great a sacrifice; but we have
ever placed toe high an estimate upon the kind
and observation-disclosures of Northern Indiana,
TO believe that there are very many Of their
number requiring that sacrifice.
The terms of the paper will be as heretofore,
and by the aid and exertion Of our friends, we
hope to commence the 5th volume oil the Ply
mouth Banner with an increased circulation /;
and surely, in view of the fattering prospects
Of our town, and the increased facilities thai
are just at the very doors Of our mercantile,
laboring and Agricultural classes, in the way
Of Railroad and other improvements-of which
the Banner has ever been the firm friend
