inflammation of the Ewes


Like ali other infamations, is caused
by impurity of the blood, which causes
all eruptive diseases, as Salt, Rheum,
Scurvy, Boils, Sol es, Ulcers, &c. The
blood being unhealthy, and of an inn
pure nature, also occasions Dropsies.-
The blood becoming DISTRACTED in the
veins, the watery part of the blood in
consequence is thrown out from their
extremities, and dropsy is the result
Many times it is oecasioned by improp-
or treatment of some former disease,
and the vessels being filled by serious
humors instead of blood. Free evacua-
tions by these pills, open the passage
into the bladder and carry off the cor
rupted humors, and renew them with
pure and healthy blood, which will
drive out ofthe body all inflammation, to-
gether with eruptions of the skin, and
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 tho coun-
tcnance to brighten with the bloom of
beauty and health.

REPUBLICS UNGRATKFUL.

The proverbial ingratitude of Republics has
received a fresh illustration in the recent Penn
| sylvania elections, to which, at the hazard OF
furnishing another occasion to the carping
spirit of transatlantic critics, we will venture to
draw attention.
In the first place, be it remembered, the
favorite son" of Pennsylvauis was 10 1856
elected President of the United States and, al
though the people of that State were mot quite
unasimous in coming mp to the polls 70 sus-
tain him, they should nevertheless be sensible
of the high honor which was thrust upon them,
almost against their Wills. Then the President
has himself laid them under still further obi
cations by comforting Cabinet appointment
upon another citizen of the State, while he has
appointed or retained in ofice an array of for
eign ministers of which the old Dominion in
her palmiest days of power could not have
boasted. We can imagine with what euvy,
malice, and uncharitableness, the faithful dis
ciples in other States viii read over the follow
