DEAR SIR: Allow me to express TO you my sincere
thanks for your discovery of medicine which, to say
the least of it, has effected that all other med
icines that have taken have entirely failed to do.
Hoohands German Bitters have cured me Of the most
stubborn and aggravated case Of the Piles that per-
haps ever fell to the lot of man. My case is not q
stranger in this community, as | am well known in
this and the surrounding counties and can truly say
that my recovery has astounded all my friends and
relations, as had tried everything recommended,
and nothing did me any good, until was prevailed
upon to try the Bitters You at liberty TO make
any use Of this communication for the beI eft of the
afflicted you may think proper.
Truly, yours WIN. j.. ATWOOD.
DR.. O. M, JACKSON.
These Btters are entirely vegetable. They invg-
crate and strengthen the system, never PROSTATE it
and can be used for infants well as adults.

PINE HILL, March A, 1854.
DEAR SIN: have been a subject of Dyspepsia, in
its worst FORM for the last five years. Such my
condition for twelve months that the physicians and
all who saw said must die. While in this con-
dition was carried to the watering places in Vr-
ginia, Tennessee, and North Carolina, but was not
benefited by any water to which was taken. While
on my way home, stopped week at Rutherfordton,
a small village in North Carolina to try the effect Of
some Chalybeate water in that place. About the last
of the week went into drug store to get med
icine for my child and myself There were several
of the village physicians in the store and one of them
seemed to take some interest in my case and after
asking me some questions, said he had been dys.
peptc, and had been greatly benefited by the use of
"Hoofands German Btters, prepared by yeu, and
he insisted that would try the Bitters. He also
called the next day at my room and insisted much
that would try them that asked him to get me
one bottle lie did it, and commenced taking it as
directed and was benefited by it than all the
water and medicine had ever taken.
After reaching home one of my neighbors came to
me for prescription and medicine, Che dyspeptic)
and gave him nearly all the Bitters had left which
effected much good in his case He has often called
on me for more of the kind of medicine saying
he was more benefited by it than any other he had
taken but have not been able to get any more for
him or myself since Will you therefore, please ship
me dozen or more as soon as possible.
Respectfully, yours, w. SMITH.

TIE SPEAK ERSHIP.

The long agony is over Banks is elected
Speaker on the plurality basis, of the House
of Representatives of the United States. Alb
clifton aud Know Nothingism have trumphod
The man, who stated in Congress, that he
could not decide whether the negro or white
man was the superior being, is intrustcd with
the organization of the various committees, or,
in other words, with the direction of the leg
islation of Congress- to great extent, for the
present session.
The foremost representative of Massachu
sets ideas is selected in preference to Mr..
Richardson, whose ambition was to personify
the principles of the American Constitution,
without regard to North, East, West, or
South The admirer of the African breed aud
proscriber nf the white Caucasian race, hes
outstrppcd the follower of Jeifersan, Jackson,
Polk and the really great and conservative
intcllcets of the Union.
When Banks is speaker, we may expect to
see Sumner put forward for the Presidency,
with the name Of Wcndal Phillips or Horace
Greedy as second on the ticket
But we congratulate the south Oh the result.
An unmistakable issue will soon be made. The
no rrible slang of compromise at least will be
surrendered, and all know where they really
stand. Our representatives will be brought
face to face with their duty, and can never
again dodge it round q diplomatic corner Or
cover their retreat from it, like the cutie fish.
by clond Of ink.
We trust Banks will be as fanatical as pos
siblc, and that his party will hold him strictly
to his promises, for thus only can the mind of
the south be reused TO real knowledge of the
dangers ahead. Let him act consistently. Let
him appoint abolition committees alone. By
this means he will do us greater service than
the most eloquent defender of southern rights.
But while we remember that the Free-soilers
voted for him to n man, We must not forget
that the southern Know Nothings elected him
