Ayers Ague Cure,

which neutralizcs this malarious poison in the
blood, and stimulates the liver to cNpc, 1t from the
BODY. As il should, 50 it does cure this allllcnng
disorder with perfect certainty And 1t does more,
or rather does what Is of more service to those sub
iect to this Infection IL taken in season it expels
Il from the system rs it is absorbed, and thus keeps
those who use it free from its attacks; keeps the
system in health although exposed to the disease
Consequently it not only cures, but protects irom,
the great variety of affections which are induced
by this malignant influence, such as Remlttent
Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked Ague,
Periodical Headache, or Bilious Headache, Bilious
Fevers, Neuralgia, rheumatism, Gout Blindness,
Tnothache, Elrlrhe, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpta-
tons, Painful Affections Of the Spleen, Mysteries,
Collie, Paralysis, and Painful Affections of the
Stomach and Bowels. all OF which, when arising
from this cause, will be found to assume more or
less the intermittent type. This "AGUB CURE y
removes the cause of these arrangements, and cures
the disease.
This it accompshcs by stimulating the excre-.
tories to eXpel the virus from the system; and
these organs by degrees become habited to do this
their office Of their own accord. Hence arises what
we term accliHiatatiOn. Time may accomplish the
same end, but often life is not long enough or is
sacrificed in the attempt while this " AGUE CURE
does it at once, and with safety. We have great
reason to believe this is a surer well as safer
remedy for the whole class Of diseases which are
caused by the miasmatic infection, than any other
which has been discovered; and it has still another
important advantage to the public, which is thai
it is cheap as well as good.

Rev. Allen Mcfarland

Mr.. EDrToR We noticed i'm the pro-
ccodings Of Awhile Water Presbyicry"
as reported by Spectator in your pa
per Of last week, that they had appoint
ed Commission to investigate charges
made against our old friend and former
pastor of the Presbyterian church Of
this place, which appeared in an article
over the signature Of Charles Raymond
Esq, and Published in the Indiana Bul-
letin" of Cambridge City. We arc graf.
flied ms personal friend of Mr.. McFar-
land, that he has taken this course, as it
is due to him and the church Of which
he is n minister, that the matter be
fully aud fairly investigated.
The article of Mr.. Raymond Processes
ostcnsibly to correct erroneous or mista-
ken impressions. but virtually attacks
the christian character of Mr.. MeFar-
land, aud at the same time endorses
him las an honorable nprigh. man. -
1t is not to defend Mr.. Mcfarland from
'imputations Of want Of christian char
acter, from whatever source; "a that
character is too we'll established aud
known in this community and within
tho bounds OF his presbytary Ia re-
quiro defence from US but to disap-
prove tho anti.christian course chosen
and spirits manifested by Mr. Raymond
to adjust difficulties or msundcstand-
ings with his late minister Tho "Bul-
Ictn" is secular newspaper published
at Cambridge City in this state. The
church of which Mr.. Raymond is a
member and Mr.. Mcfarland was minis
ter, provides ample remedies for parties
at difference, and TO these tribun als and
not through a secular newspaper before
tho unyegmrrdted public, we think Mr..
Raymond should have summoned his
brother and late minister, il in aught
no had offended. "Daro any OF you, hav-
ing matter against nLothcr, go to law
before the unjust and not before tho
Saints?
OF the particular matter in difference
or the motives that prompted tho course
Of Mr.. Raymond, wo cannot speak
knowingly, but wo have known Mr.
Mcfarland perSonalyand intimately from
his first arrival in our midst and from
daily intercourse as our ncighbor, and
frequent attendance on his ministry
while here, unhcsitatingly endorse him
n thorough gentleman and model chris.
tian. We sincerely regretted his rcmo-
val from our place and expected, that
among our old friends at Cambridge he
would received cordial welcome, permit.
nent and pleasant abiding place.
We are gratifcd Mt the course Of
Prcsbytery, and feel confident that u
full and fair investigation of tho char.
gcs will in no wise lessen our estimation
of Mr.. Mcfarland ms ctristiah minis

Washington CITY.

From the proceedings of Congress
we learn that the city Of magnificent
distances" is about to be demolished
and its citizens robbed and murdered
by what We suppose to be dcputation
from that hoard OF border ruilans, fed,
paid and supported by tho administra-
ton 70 thwart and override the popular
expression of the frocmen of Kansas
II was stated in debate OH proposition
to authorize tho employment Of po-
lice force or one hundred men to protect
the city, that already since tho organi-
cation Of the present session Of Con-
grcss there had boon thirteen attempts
to murder on the street, part in day
light, and, several successful. One Of tho
objections urged was, that tho appoint.
mcnt OF tho chief Of police was to be
made by the President, and that Mr.
Buchanan would probably appoint from
among bis partizans there present, who
might be one Of those "bordcr ruffians."
1t is we'll known and humiliating, that
the notorious Calhoun was followed to
Washington by n servilo pack of his
banditti, who have been hangers on
about Congress, rs advocates Of the lie
compton Constitution.
From the date Of their arrival Wash.
ington City has ceased TO be safe from
the assaRsins weapon. Is il rcmarka.
bio that gentlemen should object TO tho
appointing power in the President, as
that chosen chief of Police would have
tho selection Of his one hundred subal
terms?
Such is really the want Of confidence
in tho chief executive OF this great ma.
ton, that honorable, candid men fear to
entrust him with this appointment
What lesson to men in, and seeking
political power Beware Of tho rock
on which the the President has wreck
ed his future, and unlike him, frown
down all evil, although you may think
that present good may spring from it.

Death Of the Rev. Dudley Tying.

BY Telegraph from Philadelphia, last
evening, We received the painful intclli-
ccnce OF the death of Rev. DUDLEY A,
TYING. formerly Rectorof Christ Church,
in this city, and lately Pastor Of new
and Gorishing Episcopal congregation
in Philadelphia. An accident, which
led to this sud event, happened on Tues
day morning last, near his residence ut
Brookfield, Montgomery Co. Pa, while
witnessing the operation ola corn-shell-
ing machine Having stepped on the
inclined plane, he placed his hand on
that portion of the instrument known
us tho "mulc," when his dressing gown
became entangled in tho wheels Of tho
apparatus, which laccratcd his arm IN
the most frightiul manner, from the cl-
bow 10 tho shoulder, sevcring the main
artery aud 4 vein, and inhicting the
most cxcruciating pain.
On Saturday morning, the condition
the of wound was SO bad, symptoms
of modification having appcarod) IL be-
camo evident that aE.putation was nee
cssary as the only means Of saving his
life. The operation was accordingly
performed BY Dir. Aztec, who took oil
tho right arm, close to the shoulder
joint.
The many friends Of Mr.. TYING in this
city, will deeply lament this melancholy

this respect, the example of his distin-
guishcd father, DR.. TYING ofNew York;
and while ministering in this city he,
on several occasions occupied tho pal
pits of othor than Episcopal Churches,
He moved above and outside the range
of sectarian bigotry, or ecclesiastical ex-
clusivcness; and ho was generally re.
garded rs ono of the most promising
ministers of tho ago.
His loss will be most severely felt in

The Union Prayer Meeting


Is still in PROGRESS holding it's meet
ings alternately at the Methodist and
Presbyterian Churches each week.
The good churchmen of our town have
secured one important point, they have
broken the ice and knclt in prayer to-
gether. We were present at tho last
meeting and favorably impressed with
tho sensible interrogatory propounded
at tho clo.e Of the service, by the lead
or Mr.. Jackson Lynn, tow-it "Did you
ever know a family of children assem-
blcd around the common hearth stone
afraid of each other?" 1t was n chris.
tain but severe rebuko 10 those wanting
in christian fellowship, and VIC hope
will induce churchmen TO examine care
fully their own hearts.
We think there is yet hope for this
seemingly benighted town, but that
hope hangs on the efforts of the church.
Just so long as the church is itself unrc.
vivcd, the world around it is without
the Comforter.
"Don't give up the snip is motto
not unworthy even the cause Of Christ,
and we would cxhort our friends to
cling but closer to tho horns of the al

Douglas Victorious in Illinois.

II has hardly been doubtful for mo-
mcnt that Mr.. Douglas would carry
with him, in his opposition to the Pres
idents policy, the bulk Of his party
in Illinois; but we doubt if any body
anticipated SO decided preponderancc
us is shown to day by the Geographic
report of tho State Convention al
Springfield on Wednesday. The But
chanan men, it seems, found the pros.
pect of getting tho control of the Con
vention in their own hands, hopeless,
and just gave up the effort ut once,
without making n fuss about it, They
organized q separate convention, with
twenty eight counties represented
The Douglas men represented ninety
seven counties. The proportion of
strength in tho State is not far different
from this proportion Of representation.
Douglas counts about three or four to
one. His men made the regular Demo
cratic nomination, and hold the "prcs-
tge' Of the regular organization, thus
driving the Presidents party into oppo-
sition--the first time that feat was ever
pess,gMsd in Pny State before. The
BuchanaWmed concluded they would
not nominate for II whiIc--a conclusion
they might as well extend indefinitely,
us no nomination stands the millionth
part of q chance of success.-Md. Jour
