e Ngy~ Listen, Yc Dyspeptics.[ Go
a nd do Likewise. Permanent Cure

- ~
The Rev. James Hunnicutt, proprietor and
editor of that excellent paper, the Christian
Banner, published at Fredericksburg, Va,
in his editorial of June 9Th, 1857, thus speaks
of his cure:
HAMPTON'S VEGETABLE TlNCTURE.
1t will remembered by many ofou readers,
that several years ago we stated in the edi
torial columns of the Christian Banner, that
HAMPToN's VEGETABLE TINCTURE had effected
cure for Dyspepsia in our own case-that
we had labored long with this terrible dis
ease, and suffered most awfully, the pain and
melancholy which necessarily accompanies
this horrible enemy of man and mans hap
piness. For long time we lived in constant
fear that the fell monster would return.
But, thank God, and thanks to Hampton's
Tincture, the gloomy demon has not yet re-
turned, and we begin to think he never will.
Weno feel confident in saying that Hamp
tons Vegetable Tincture has made a radical
cure ofDyspepsia in our own case We have
not taken a drop of it for the last two years,
to the best of our recollection. We eat what
we please, and as much as we please and chew
tobacco to our hearts content and all is well.
We believe that twelve bottles, judiciously
taken, will cure nine cases out of every ten Of
dyspeptics. We conscientiously recommend
it to all dyspeptics. The spring time and
summer it is most recommended, therefore,
as philanthropist, we call attention to it.

From washington.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-It has been
ascertained that Great Britain has never
recognized the jurisdiction of Costa RIGA
over the river San Juan Or transit route.
All she desires is that Costa RIGA should
have the right of navigation for the ex-
port of her produce by the river, and the
frontier to be settled by free navigation
between the two governments. None of
the contracts Or grants made by Costa
Rica respecting the transit are sanction
ed or approved by Great Britain.
Lord Napier has advised the government
Of Costa Rica not to make any grants or
concessions pending the arrival in Cen
trail America of Sir VIM. Gore Ouseley,
who is expected Immediately at Wash
ington.

TROUBLE ON BOARD THE U. S. FRI
GATE ST. LAwRENoE.-By an arrival at
New York we have papers from Rio de
Janeiro to Oct. LIST, one day later than the
dates via England. The city had been
considerably excited by the report that a
wholesale mutiny had occurred on board
the U. S. frigate st. Lawrence, at anchor
in the harbor, that the English and French
naval forces had been called in by the
American commodore to quell the distur-
bance, and that court-martial had con-
demned eighteen of the prisoners to hang
at the yard arm. In the Journal de
Commerce. there appears careful con-
tradiction of the report, evidently by
authority Of the commodore. 1t is ad-
mitted that five of the crew are under
trial by court-martial, but their cases were
not yet concluded, and consequently there
had been no mutiny There can hardly
be a doubt, from the manner in which
the story it told, that there had been
trouble of some sort ON board the frigate

ELECTION, MONDAY
AUGUST Sd.


Witnessing the disastrous effects to
ito own party, by its foul insinuat'ons
against our candidate for Sheriff, the
Gazette il laboring zcsiou-ly 70 repair
The srror, by retracting its charges, IN
hopes Of inducing an indignant public
not to vote for Harvey Leonard to show
their resentment OF the wrong. Many
Republicans openly assert that they
will now vote for Harvey Leonard; that
tho contemplate and iuexcussble mode
of electionecring against him by the
Gazette, is such as ought to be dis
countenalIced and discouraged, and
they will show Harvery Leonard their
mistaken confidence, in his integrity
a. man, in his honesty as an officer,
and that they sympathize with him in
the wrong sought to be done him by
libel and calumny.
We determined from the commence
ment Of this campaign, not to be driven
into slandering opposition to the
individual candidates Of the opposition,
II they were such men as could be
trusted in discharge of their official
duties. Our contemporary has actually
wallowed in the slime Of personal de-
traction, to injure our candidates, but
it has signally failed.
The great injustice done Mr.. Leonard
by the Gazette is more than half con-
leased by it, but it will be fully repair
ed at the polls. The certificate o.
Judge Cook the Republican County
Judge, that the Gazette insinuation'
were false IN every respect, will at once
convince voters Of the moral turpitud,
Of our contemporary. 1t probably re
grsts its inconsiderate rashness an,
folly, not because Of the injustice done
but because Of the injurious effect i
has upon the Republican party. Har
vey Leonard was too old a resident o.
Scott County to be injured by such
gross attacks. lie had served the pub
lie for ten years with fidelity and
zeal rarely equslled. His atfability,
bis delicacy in executing processes, hle
wide spread charity, his impartiality
in the discharge Of duties, and his
kindness of heart in all cases requiring
sympathy and material aid, has en-
deared him to host Of grateful friends,
Of every political faith, and of all sects,
classes and conditions Of persons. We
are confident Of one thing, that all the
lawyers, public officers, suitors, and
persons effected by the official relations
Of a Sheriff, will rejoice to see Harvey
Leonard reelected to the office of
which he is an honor.
