inflammation of the Ewes

Like all other Inflammation, is caused by impurity
of the blood, which causes all cruptve diseases, as
Salt Rheun1, Scurvy, Bos, Sores, Ulcers, sc. The
blood being unhealthy, and of an impure nature,
also occasions Dropsics. The blood becoming oh,
in consequence is thrown from their extrcmites
and dropsy is the result. Many times it is
stoned by improper treatment of some former dis
case, and the vessels being filled by serous hunors
instead of blood. Free evacuations by these pills.
open the passage into the bladder and carry off the
corrupted humors, and renew them with pure and
healthy blood, which will drive out of the body all
inflammation, together with cruptons of the skin,
and all dropsical complaints. They will be a shield
to every form of disease to guard and keep you
from the cold grasping hand of death, and cause
life and strength to remain and the countenance to
brighten with the bloom of beauty and health.

els white and 500 bushels red and prices firm
at previous quotations., viz 1l0al20 cts. for ord-
nary white, l25al35 cts for fair to good, and 4Oa

ToBAcco.-Thc demand for MARYLAND Tobacco
continues pretty active and the receipts find ready
sale, indicating very clearly that the stock in first
hands at the close of the season will be very light.
The sales of the week comprises all that passed in
spection, at last weeks prevailing rates, which are
fully supported, viz $4a S6.75 for inferior to good
Maryland crop, and s.. .25a s 1915 for superior
quality. The receipts of Maryland Tobacco this
year will not be much short of II, 900 hhGs. The
crop now about to be gathered in, is of good quail
ty at least very large portion OF it, but it is sup
posed the quantity to come to market in 1859 will
not be over 5000 hhds. The sales of Ohio Tobac-
co this week were about $50 hhds which sold at
former rates. The parcels sold this week are sup
posed to be the last of the crop Of 1857, and no
more need to be expected from that State until the
new crop is gathered The inspections show the a.
son to be p, 900 hhds The crop about to be gath
ered, however, will be much less, and is varously
estimated at from 10 900 to IS 900 hhds. Kentucky
heavy leaf has been in considerable request this
week, and we have to note sales of about so hhds.

POSTPONEMENT OF THE EXHIBITION
No doubt many persons will be disappointed
to hear that the Exhibition of the Charles Coun-
ty Agricultural Society, which was announced
to take place in November, has been postponed
The cause which led to this postponement is
the prevalence Of the Scarlet Fever in our vii
iage and surrounding country This dreadful
disease, which first broke out several weeks ago
near the river in Pomonkey district, has sudden
ly made its appearance in this place, and to
prevent its spread as much as possible in other
sections of the county, the Executive Commit
tee, at their meeting on Tuesday last, thought it
best to adopt a resolution postponing the Ex-
hibition till November, 1852 The Committee
also adopted the following resolution:
.Resolred That in view of the causes which
have induced US to postpone the Exhibition, we
earnestly request the members of the Society to
pay to the Treasurer, Mr.. j. r. Bateman, their
subscriptions for the present year, as by so do
ing it will enable us to liquidate the debts due
by the Society and to offer greater inducements
for the coming year.
