The Inner Mission.

"PREsERvE AND REGULATE, NOT DESTROY.
There is in Germany vast organization
known by the designation of the elmer
Mission" which is without parallel in the
variety and extent of its religious objects.
What this organization is to the spiritual
darkness of mankind, Professor Holloway's
world-embracing system of medical agencies
is to their bodily infrmities AS the Ger
man institution disseminates through its in
Vulnerable cotpofteurs religious instruction
and consolation among the people Of every
land, &c the agents and representatives Of
this indefatigable philanthropst, proffer the
means Of cure to the sick of all regions.
His remedies are as potent to control disease
and preserve end proiong life, as their
tracts and homiiies are to check vice and
promote virtue. His, too, is an IRaer Ms
sion, for there is 70 internal disorder which
does net yield to that most powerful and IN
falible, yet safest Of all antidotes, Hollo-
ways Pills. Probably half the mortality
which annually occurs among civilized ma
tions, might be traced to neglected derauge-
ments of the stomach This delicate and
impertanl organ is fearfully abused. Lux
ury on the one hand and priyation on the
other, disorder its functions and destroy its
vigor. 1t is surfeited, starved, stimulated +,
paralysed--in every way misused, and from
the chronic dyspepsia and other forms of in
digestion cngendered by this maltreatmeat,
hundreds Of terrible maladies, affecting
every portion of the system, inevitably
spring. Doctors are called in and what is
their prescription Calomel The mischief
done by the disease is consummated by the
so-called remedy Corrosive poison forms
no part of Professor Holloway's irresistible
curatives. His Pills composed exclusively
of hygean vegetable substances, reach and
neutralizc any destructive elements of dis
ease in the animal fluids with as much &C.
lcrity as light banishes darkness. That
they should fail to produce this effect is a
chemical impossbility. Nor is this all,
They act as an inyigorant, restoring to the
stemac. its normal activity. Strengthening
the constitution, and infasing fresh vitality
into every torpid organ, Equally salutary
is the effect of Holloway's Ointment in all
external affections, and those who rely upon
his two great remedies, to the exclusion of
all other medical preparations, will never
find that their confidence has been mis-
placed. Plymouth "JowaR"

SPECIAL NOTICES.

Hoilonoys Ointment and pills. -Burcaux of
Health hospitals and dspenssries. have never ac-
eomplished half the good that has been achieve d
through the agencies for the sale OF these rene
dies. Fortunately for the sick, these agencies per-
wade all countries Every dwelling, however,
should be furnished with the preparations, for they
may be suddenly and imperatiyey required at any
hour. IL universally and appropriately used in all
cases demanding medical treatment, the average
duration Of tuaan life would be increased and the
amount OF human suffering greatly lessencd. The
effect OF the Ointment on eruptons, ulcers, tumors,
and all Kinds of external diseases and injuries, is
little short of supernatural.

last week Samuel NJ. Scott, Esq, one of
the most prominent Of our citizens, (says
the Lynchbnrg Courier,) and his whole
family, consisting of children, grand chill
dreu and children-in- law, together with
fifty or sixty slaves, started in the good old
fashioned wagon moving manner for the
great State of Texas. The procession be-
ing nearly quarter of mile in length
must have been an imposing one, and being
patriarchal in character, must have brought
to mind the migrations of Abraham and
