GOOD MEDICINES.

II is estimated that Ayer'S fherry PectoraI g.
CGfhartic PAS have done more to promote the
public health than any other one cause. There
can he no question that the Cherry Pcctoral has
by its thousands on tn ousands cures of Colds
Coughs, Asthma, Group, Influenza, Bronchitis
&c, very much reduced the proportion Of deaths
Pills are as good as the Pectora and will cure
more complaints.
Everybody needs more or less purging. Purge
the blood from its impurities. Purge the bowels,
Liver, and the whole vsccTal system from OH
struCtIons. Purge out the diseases which fasten
on the body to work its decay. Take antdotes
early and thrust it from the system, before il is
yet too strong to yield.
Ayers Pills do thrust out disease, not ONLY
while II is weak but when il has taken a strong
hold. Road the astounding statements Of those
who have been cured by them from dreadful
Scroiula, Dropsy, Ulcers, Skin diseases, Rheu-
motism, Neuralgia, Dyspepsia, Internal pains,

and many less dangerous but still threatening
ailments, such as Pimples on the Face, Worms
Nervous lrritability, Loss of appetite, Irregu-

THERE has long existed public demand for an
effective purgative pill which could be relied on as
sure and perfectly safe in its operation. This has
been prepared to meet that demand, and an extern
sive trial of its virtues has concusvcy shown with
what success it accomplishes the purpose designed
1t is easy to make physical pill, but not easy to
make the best of all pills one which should have
none of the objections, but all the advantages of
every other This has been attempted here, and
with what success would respectfully submit to
the public decision. 1t has been unfortunate for
the patient hitherto that almost every purgatiye
medicine is acrimonious and irritating to the bow
els. This is not. Many of them produce so much
gripping pain and rryulsion in the system as to more
than counterbalancc the good to be derived from
unless arise from previously existing obstruc-
ton or arrangement in the bowels. Being purely
vegetable, no harm can arise from their use in any
quantity but it il better that any medicine should
use in the several diseases to which they are APP
plicable are given on the box Among the conf
plants which have been speedily cured by them we
may mention Liver Complaint, in its various forms
OF Jaundice, Indigestion, Languor and Loss of Ar
petite, Lstlessness, Irritability, Bilious Headache,
Bilious Fever, Fever and Aguc, Pain in the Side
and Lons for, in truth, all these but the con-
sequence Of diseased action in the liver As an
aperent, they afford prompt and sure relief in Cos
uveness, Piles, Collie, Dysentery, Humors Scrof-
ula and Scurvy, Colds with soreness of the body,
Ulcers and impurity of the blood; in short, any
ans every case whore purgative is required.
They have also produced some singularly sue
cessful cures in Rheumatism, Govt Dropsy, Gravel,
Erysipelas, Palpitaton of the Heart, Pains in the
Back, Stomach, and Side. They should be freely
taken in the spring of the year, to purify the blood
and prepare the system for the change of seasons.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels into healthy action, and restores the appe-
lite and yigor They purify the blood, and, by their
stimulant action on the circulatory system, reno
yate the strength of the body, and restore the
wasted or diseased energies of the whole organism
Hence an occasional dose is advantageous, even
though no serious arrangement exists; but un-
necessary dosing should never be carried too far,
as every purgative medicine reduces the strength,
when taken to excess. The thousand cases in which
q physic is required cannot be enumerated here but
they suggest themselves to the reason of every
body; and it is confidently believed this pill vii

virtues arc once known, the public will no longer
doubt what remedy to employ when in need Of a

On this subject, the Lake City Tribune
thus pitches into those croakers WHO are
everlastingly prating about short crops, &C.:
Can any of our readers remember time
when there were no fears expressed of short
crops, and light crops, and poor crops? We
cannot. From our earliest days Of noticing
such topics, we have invariably heard this
same story, and for our part it has much the
same effect upon us as the " wolf cry had
upon the undeceived hearers thereof. Every
returning spring comes out the old cry,
light crops" 1t comes from that class OF
spectators who seek to make capital and en-
rich themselves out of the food which be-
nignant Providence furnishes to all the world
They buy up the staff Of life," and then, t"
make quick sales and large profits, they would
fain deceive the community with that start
ling cry, "short crops" 1t seems surprising
that the world should so long have b en- de-
ceived by this false alarm it is more sur
Irising that some tffectuai plan has not been
devised by the working men, of the world,
to put check upon speculation in this direc-
ton. We arc persuaded that it needs but
the will, and the way would be found. to
"kill out this class of spectators upon hu-
manity, who are no better in heart and prin-
ciple than shareholders who fat themselves
upon the hard-earned gains of honest toll
Let associations be formed, le' plans be sug-
gested and discussed, and let this brood OF
human az blood-suckers be swept from the
earth which they disgrace.
Let no one be alarmed about the crops. It
argues small faith in Him who has said to us,
"While the earth remains. there shall lie seed
time and harvest" Trust in the Lord and
do good SO shalt thou dwell in the land,
and verify thou shalt be fed"

Andrew Pickcns Butler, of South Carolina:
'.During his passage from Charleston to
Wilmington, on his first trip as Senator to
Washington, the boat was overtaken by q
storm which rendered her an unn,anageable
wreck. She had been forty -eight hours ut

she was rolling in the trough of the sea, and
expecting every moment to founder, Jude
Butler had all called forward, and desired
that each should know one another, so that II
any reached the land, he, she, or they might
report the fate Of the others. An elderly
negro woman (the stcwardess, perhsps) said,

cago Printers Cabinet, "the discovery of
new and very superior combination Of metal
for casting Letter, which gives far greater
tenacity, extreme hardness and more beauti-
full finish to it, than anything heretofore
known in the manufacture of Type.
"We speak from the Book, for we have
specimens Of Type made from the new meta
before us, and have compared it carefully
with the so-called "hard metal" manufactured
by White & Co., of New York, as also with
metal from many other Foundries, and find
that it cuts harder, and will bear more i'm
preston without breaking down the hair
lines, and of course will wear longer and do
more service than softer metal, and as it is
furnished at the same price, is Of course much
cheaper for the purchaser
The Type we furnish from this Foundry
will, after this date. be made from this metal
and we are authorized by the manu- factnrers
to rarramt it equal to any made 10 the

Specimens Of the Type may be seen at our

A curious memoir Of Father Louis Della
Vagina. late Parish Priest of St. Mary's."
Toronto, has recently been published. In
imitation Of the ancient IIermits, the Padre
/" mingled ashes with his food"-sported 'but
one extremely coarse and rugged robe"-
denied himself seven tie convenience of hose'
and " instead of shoes had upon his feet
species Of sandal, which was a very made
quate protection against the severity of the
weather."
Prophecies, also, were enunciated by the
incumbent Of st. Mary's. GA poor man,
lying on his sick bed" says the Fathers bio
grapher, Mr.. Charles Donelvy, was rejoiced,
as the good man, who knew nothing about
medicine, told him that his illness was but
temporary, and that he, in few days, would
be numbered among the workmen of the
world-a fact which was verified in less time
than that mentioned Hopes are cherished
by Mr.. Dcnlevy that honest Louis will be
awarded the honors Of canonization.
