son. lie has been afflicted with what physicians
called scrofulous disease of the absobng
glands of the stomach He has been afflicted
with this disease from infancy. He is now if-
teen years Of age; during all this time he has
had several severe attacks and all the food ta-
ken into the stomach impaired little strength to
the system. ] had several eminent physicians
attcndi ing him, but found very little adyan-
tage, as the disease still returned with all its aw-
ful consequences.
In April 1857, he had violent attack so much
so, that all who saw him supposed he was in the
last stage of Consumption. / was advised to try
your Blood Searchcr; | accordingly procured
one bottle Of it, and by the time he had used it
he appeared restored TO perfect health.
1t is now one year since he used your invalua-
bic Blood Scarcher and am perfectly satisf-
cd it has saved him from au untimely grave. |
now unhesitatngly recommend it to all who may
be similarly afflicted and deem it no more than
justice to bear this public testimony to its vir-

Oliver III. Smith, Of Indiana, in one Of his
"Reminiscences, published in the Indianapolis
Journal, tells the following story.
During the debate in Congress on the tariff.
in ISIS an amendment was offered to increase
tho duty on molasses ten cents per gallon be-
ing an increase of hundred per cent adval-
orem. Its object was TO choke off the northern
members, and indirectly to kill the bill. The
moment the amendment was announced By thc
chairman, in committee of the whole, Mr.. Bur-
CESS, OF X. l., arose and implored the mover to
withdraw it. He showed lis effects upon the
trade between the eastern States and the ada
cent islands, in timber and the return cargoes
of molasses, which was the daily food Of the
poor. His speech was short and to the point.
As he took his seat, Henry Danirl, of Ktntuc-
ky. sprang to his feet and roared out at the top
of his voice 'Mr. Speaker, &c: the constituents
Of the gentleman from Rhode Island sop their
bread on one side in molaSses, and they will
pay the same duties they do now. Mr Bart
lett, Ut New Hampshire, remarked to me: Now
look out for Tristan, Harry will ca C it." Mr.
Burgess arose with fire bcaming from his coun-
tcnance, and addressed the chair. fThe relief
proposed by the gentleman from Kentucky is
but adding insult to injury Does not that
gentleman know that established habits be-
come second nature, and that all laws are cruel
