The Greatest Medical Discovery of the Age, is
AYERS CATHARTIC PILLS.

They don't HLLP complaints, but they CURE
them.
One Box has curedDySpepsia.
Three boxes have cured thessworst cases OF
Scrofula.
Two Boxes have cured Erysipelas,
One Box always cures the Jaundce.
Three Boxes are sure to cleanse the system
from Boils--often less than one does 1t.
Two Boxes have completely cured the worst
Of ulcers on the legs.
Small doses seldom fail to cure the Piles.
Ore dose cures the headache arising from a
foul stomach.
Strong doses often repeated eXpel every
worm from the body.
They should be iven to children, who are
always more or less at1l ,cted with this scourge.
As a gentle Physic they have no equal.
One Box cures arrangement of the Liver.
Half a Box cures a Cold.
They purify the blood, and thus strike at
the foundation of e"ery disease.
AS dinner Pill there is not their equal in
the world.
They are purely vegetable, and can do no
harm, but do accomplish an unaccounta-
Bile amount of good.

DR.. Roback's Theory and Practice

1t would seem that DR.. Roback's Scandinavian
Remedes'' have taken the highest rank among the
standard medicines of the day. His theory is, that
whatever organ disease mag show ITSELF its roots are
in the blood. Hence his famous Swedish curatives,
Blood Purifier and the Blood Pills designed to
act specifically upon the sanguineous fluid. One
thing be disputed, they proeuce most salutary
effects even in apparently hopeless cases. Individu-
ais who have suffered for years dyspepsia scrof
ula eruptions of the skim bronchitis, asthma, general
prostration liver complaint, rheumatism, neuralgia,
and many other distressing maladies, report them
selves over their signatures, radically cured
by of these Remedies The claims oi DR.. Ro-

Robert J. Walker, the newly
appointed Governor of Kansas, after hav-
ing spent two months in getting ready, is
probably now on his way. In speech at
the Astor House, New York, last week,
he said he was determined that the people
of Kansas should have an opportunity for
full, free, and solemn expression of their
will upon the adoption of any Constitution
that might be framed-after fair and sat-
isfactory census of all the bona fide inhab-
itants who might be in the territory at the
time. He considered it not only a point
of law and official duty, as an officer of
the territory, but as point of honor as a
man and gentleman, to secure this to the
people. This is brave talk. 1t sounds
well, and looks well on paper. But dare
Gov. Walker attempt to redeem these fair
promises? If he succeeds in this, all the
troubles in Kansas will be ended, and we
shall be ready TO glorify Gov. Walker as g
great hero. But we have little faith ii
all that fine talk.

New ADvERTIsEMEN Ts.-We neglected

From slight acquaintance with Mr.. L.,

TERRIBLE Mon IN Our
readers probably remember the account
published last winter, of the murder of
the Joyce family, near the mouth of Salt
River, in Kentucky, by four slaves. The
negroes were tried last week at Louisville,
and acquitted A mob, headed by son
of the murdered family, proceeded to the
Jail after the acquittal, with cannon load
ed to the muzzle, and demanded the pris-
,oners. After some resistance, in which
the Mayor was struck in the face with a
brick, and a watchman had finger shot
off, they effected an entrance to the Jail.
One of the negroes had cut his own throat.
The other three were taken, and after being
stabbed, kicked, and otherwise maltrcated,
were hung by the mob Joyce was fran
tic, and an Intellectual effort was made to
secure him. 1t was feared the mob would
attack and do violence to the lawyers who
defended the negroes.
