BRANDRETH'S PILLS
PURIFY THE BLOOD.

Continued pain or uneasiueSS in any organ
is generally cured by one or more doses of
Brandreths Pills. Thirty years personal ex-
perience by the undersigned fully justify this
assertion.
DR.. James Lull, of Potsdam, n. Y, says -
"I have cured the deplorabIe costiveness of the
bowels with Brandreth's pills, when every
other remedy had failed, and the patient was
given up to die. Skin diseases of an invete-
rate and painful character, Such as erysipelas,
salt rheum, letter and summer-heat, have
seen eradicated by their use. | have cured
the rheumatic, the epileptic, the Varalytic and
the consumptive with these excellent pills
alone"
In jaundice and all affections of the liver.
dyspepsia, dysentery and diarrhea, pleurisy,
sudden pains and infammations, female oD-
structIons, scorbutic and scrofulous, even
gouty and neuralgia affections, have given way
to the use Of this medicine, and now, after
twenty years experience, my estimation of
Brandreth'S Pills continues to increase.
OBSTRUCTION.

cold, which caused serious obstruction for
two years her health was broken down and
her beauty departed AT length Brandreth 5
Pills were tried eleven doses, OF from two to
four, were taken in fifteen days preceding the
usual period. Regularity was restored, and
her health and good looks recovered.
WORMS.
Brandreth's Pills are the best yermifuge
they are infallible 4 little child, six years
old, for some weeks was dropping its mothe,

A gentleman, away from home, was taken
with pleuriSy; the inflammation was terrible ;

Brandreth'S Pills we're swallowed, and warm

pain was relieved; plenty ofgruel was taken,
and six more pills, and the second day the pa

PIMPLES AND BLOTCHES.

Are the result of impure blood The blood
becomes thick and clogged. The skin is not
able to cast off the impurities so important o
health. How many young men and women
we see with their faces covered with pimpes
and blotches, who are endeavoring to remove
them by the use of soaps and washes of vari-
Gus kinds This is very dangerous and should
never be practiced by persons aesirous of good
health Mothers who have children afflicted
with sores and eruptions should never dry
them up by external applications, for in this
way they will drive in the humors and pro-
duce i'll health for the child during its whole
life time. There is no mother that likes to see
her children afflicted with feeble health.
MORSE'S INDIAN ROOT PILLS are pre-
pared expressly for the cure of eruptions OF
the skin, such as Pimples, Blotches, Sores, &c.
They cleanse the blood of all impurities, pro-
ducng beautiful, clear and healthy skin, so
much admired by all peoole of taste and re-
fnement.

Gamp6eEE'S Choice,

Lewis D. Campbell was, on the oath
unanimous y renominated by the Repus-
llcans Of the Fourth Congressional Dis
trlct Ohio for sixth term in the House
OF Representatives. In the course of an
address to the convention, in which he
announced his acceptance of the nomina-
ton, he stated that he had been assured
by prominent democrats in Congress, that
he should not be disturbed in his seat, II
he would keep quiet on the Lecompton
business; aud after his rejection u propo-
sition had been made to him to come over
TO the democratic party, and they would
take care Of him. To this proposition lie
replied by telling the gentleman who
made it the following story:
"Monsieur Folk, a Frenchman who
went to Jamaica to embark in business,
had been sadly abused there He had been
robbed, whipped, put in prison. his prop
erty coufscated, and every species of in-
dignity and outrage offered him. On his
return to New Orleans, he told the story
most pitifuIly to Col. Pike, of Arkansas
why, Monsieur Folk" said the Col,
according to your story Jamaica must be
as bad place as the Internal regions"
"Ma fOi''-it is worse.
"Now, Monsieur, do you really mean
that?"
"C'est vrai"-it is true.
"Well now, Monster Folk" said Col.
Pike, suppose you were on your death
bed tonight, and the Lord should appear
to you ana say you might 60 back to ia
maica or go to the internal regions, what
would you say?"
81 would say, Monsieur good Lord, if
it beez all re zame to you, if it makes no
difference at all, | should very much
choose to please, to prefer much razer to
so to h-ll."
He told his democratic friend that if
it made 10 difference, he should prefer
the Frenchman's choice to joining the
democratic party.
