TESTIMONY FROM NORTH CAROLINA.

81 TESTIMONY FROM NOhIH CAhOLlNA.
Certificate of DR.. w. Smith, Of Pine HiU, Rich
,ao,,d County, North Carolina.
PINE HILL, March 4, 1854.
DEAR S1R have been a subject of Dyspepsia, in
its worst FORM for the last five years. Such was my
condition for twelve months that the physicians and
all who saw me said must die. While in this con-
dtion was carried to the watering places In Vir-
pinia, Tennessee, and North Carolina, but was not
benefited by any water to which was taken. While
on my way home, stopped week at Rutherfordton,
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 some med
icine for my child and myself There were several
of the village physicians in the store and one OF them
SCENE 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
sHooAands German Bitters," prepared BY yeu, and
he insisted that would try the Btters. He also
called the next day at my roon and insisted so much
that would try them that asked him TO get me
one bottle. He did it, and commenced taking it as
directed and was more benefited bylt than all the
water and medicine had ever taken.
After reaching home one Of nay neighbors came TO
me for prescription and medicine, Che dyspeptc,D
and gave him nearly all the Btters Ihad left which
effected much good in his case He has often called
on me for more of tho same kind of medicine saying
he was more benefited by it than any other he had
taken, but have been able to get any more for
him or myself since. Will you therefore, please ship
me dozen more as soon as possible.
Respectfully, yours, w. SMITH

THE NOMINATIONS IN IowA-ESDoRsEMENT BY
Tux AMERICAN STATE CoNvENTIoN. learn from
the b rlington Gazette of the Sth that the Amer
leans of Iowa held State Convention at Iowa City
the 5th, and sanctioned with scarcely dissent
ing voice the nomination of Fillmore and Donelson
Strong resolves against coalition with either the
Republicans or the Democrats were adopted, and
the Convention ratified the Philadelphia platform
IN toto. An electoral ticket was nominated and
pledged to advocate the cause of tho American
ticket.
The Gazette says:
IL seems that Notwithstanding a few of the
leading Americans did fuse with the Republicans,
in their convention Of the 22d of February, yet the
great mass of the Order repudiate any such pur-
pose, and, contrary to what many had been led to
suppose, did hold State Convention at Iowa City
on the 9th instant, and they ignored Republican
ism in toto, by endorsing the nomination Of Fill
more and Donelson, and by nominating an electo-
raj ticket pledged to their support, thus puttinp
themselves squarely on the Philadelphia platform
PAr's IDEA or CHEAp NEwsPApER.-A rentle-
man visiting his estates in Ireland, was standing in
field Noticing work that was being done, when he
overheard Phelm telling Pat of some terrible In
telEgence from the seat Of war. The news seemed
80 astounding that Pat couldn't quite make up bis
rsind to swallow the whole Of this without some
further authority so he inquiries
An faith, where did ye get hold Of the intelh-
gence?" Tf9Wt
"0ch and didn't rsde iv'ry blessed word In
the chape newspaper that's prented in the neigh
boring town"
"An' dye behave what ye see in the chspe
prents ?" inquired Pat.
An why shouldn't yc belave that as well as
any others It's gntleman as prents it,
Because, by faith, / don't think they can afford
TO speak the truth for the money"

This Emetic exerts a very salutary influence over
the animal economy, and removes diseases when
other remedies fail.
The stomach is coated frequently with vscid,

This emetic from its peculiar combination, has
three-fold effect upon the system. When any morbid

ALL SAINTS.

The first instant, is the day fixed by
the Catholic Almanac, for the observ-
anco Of the time bonored religious GER
emonies on "All Saints" The first,
being Saturday of the week, ornament
ing the tombs Of the departed and
lighting the tapera, was postponed to
tho Sabbath when more than the
usual number of our citizens were on
the ground Vehicles commenced run
ming early in the morning; baskets
with evergleens and flowers were the
burden of the day, and for the nonce,
the bitterness and acrimony of polltl-
cal strife was forgotten, and the entire
city seemed 10 be united in the calm,
sweet contemplation of the hy-gone
time, with its pleasant memories of
departed worth and greatness.
In the thousand and one religious
observances of more than that number
Of Christian denominations, it is pleas
ant to single out one, which from its
tangible and real effect, on the mind
of man, is calculated to bring forth
good firit in the working day FIFE of
human existence. Such a ceremony
| is worth--in moral and religious
point Of view, all the abstract dogmas
at which reason revolts and upon
which there cannot be any honest unity
of sentiment. The fact is--that reli-
| gion, which cannot be made applica-
bic to the necessities Of mans nature !;
that cannot be carried into business
atfa RS and used to cement the human
family in bonds Of brotherhood can
not be considered true, in envy ght of
reason.
For this, is it, that we like to hold
up in terms of praise the particular
ceremony, af any denomination, which
appeals in The seme language TO every
heart, wiling in upmistakable charac-
tiers lis allowed influences thereon. -
Such an ordinance is this Of All Ssints,
which for its cb stian effect, is worthy
of universal Imitation.

that the contract for new Court
House, in our u's-a-vis sister parish,
has been given 10 Mr.. A. W. Gamer
an, of this city. It is TO be completed
according to plans aud specifications
for -four thouqaud five hundred and
thirty-one dollals; 10 be ready for
public use by the LIST March. This s
one of the much needed improvements
about which there has been angry
feelings on the part of the people. In
deed, # we recollect light some body
was mandomused short time ago, to
"show cause why, &c. the Perish of
West Baton Rouge was not able to
build a water proof house for her
courts to meet in. The Grand jury,
mondomused The Police jury, or His
honor, the Judge, mandamused them
both. It matters not now, since the
end is affirmed.
The estimated tax for the ensuing
year in West Baton Rouge is $12,-
