SPE [ NOTICES..


1T is NOT GENERALLY CONCEDED THAT
Liver Complaint, deranged state Of The Liver,
is the OF most OF the summer and bowel com
plants that visit during this season Of the year.
Yet some of our first Physicians consider the
Liver the princip. Of these diseases, or in
ether words. when it performs its functions prop
eriy it enables the system to resist throw
of diseases--of the stomach and bowels, and
where they are deranged the surest crre istoAcure
the Liver of t disease and it TO perform its
proper fanctions. There is nothing in the whole
world that SO Auickly stimulates the Liver toa
proper performance of its functions as DR.. San
fords Liver Invigorator which almost instantly
checks Diaribasa, ysentery, or any complaints Of
the buwcis.7
The lnvigorator acts as gentle cathartic, yet
It checks s focseness of the bowels from the time
II Is taken tilf the regular operation of the medi
cine some eighteen hours after when the cause of
the Complaint is removed the liver is invigoraJed
and health soon follows. The Invigorator may be
taken with perfect safety in all cases of Dysente-
ry as it has been tried and used for years for such
complaints by largely practicing physician.

To the Patrons OF the Vindicator,

For two long years, from the first day of
this month, the Editors Of this paper have
been exerting themselves to afford you
amusement and useful information. For
the small consideration Of Two Dollars a year
"a trife to each Of you-which the poor
est could pay. if they would, without feel
ing, the Vindicator has been regularly
furnished to you once every week filled
with the news Of the day, and to the utmost
Of its ability sustaining tie political party
to which most of you are attached. This
trivial sum of TWo Dollars q year is the
Editors fortune-his meat and brcad-his
ALL. Out of it they have to looy cash for
their paper, their ink, type, their press-the
labor which furnishes you the news-nay,
for every thing-and all this could be done
if the little debts due the office were pune
tually paid. But this j,,},ctaosity is rant
in1. The arrears now due the Office amount
to more than THO thousand Do5yars, and
with this large debt due US, we are poor---
very poor. The cause in which We are en-
gagged must suffer unless this state Of things
IS changed, and changed It must be at once
and forever in the future We must be
paid for our labor. IF this were done, there
would be no more fourlshing paper in Vir-
ginia than the Vindicator. Its subscription
list reaches one thousand---its advertising
and job custom excellent. All we want to
insure prosperity is, that those who owe us
should pay, and we feel satisfied that the
good sense and love of justice Of our pa
irons will justify US in saying, as we do,
that this thing MUST BE DONE IN
deed, we believe that the failure to pay up
has resulted, with most Of them, from want
of consideration, and that when their atten-
ton is called to the subject, aud to our ne
cessities, they will come forward without
further delay and settle their little balances.
We verify believe there is no Democrat in
the county Of Augusta or anywhere else a
mong our subscribers who would suffer the
cause which he loves to languish for want Of
the little tri1e he owes us.
Our accounts are now being made off, and
we will shortly inform every subscriber
what his delinquency is, and If it shall not
then be paid within reasonable time, he
must not object to finding his account in the
hands of collector 1t wiW certainly
be placed.
