mis!ead the public mind, and in the opin

in false light before the people; and
whereas a certain contingency which said
article SAYS never existed, and which IN
the opinion of your committee did and
still does exist, and whereas said article
further states that the granters never re-
ceived any consideration therefor, aud fur
ther says said instrument never was a
mortgage. both of which statements are,
in the opinion of your committee without
foundation; and where's, the said J. S.
White, who signs himself agent for J. S.
Ayers, -cted in concert with the District
Attorney of this comfy, aud in behalf of
the coEuty as attorney, in making said
instrument, and whereas, in the opinion
of your committee, the said j. s. White
has from that until the present time, been
acting as attorney for on or both parties,
and assisted in making all the instruments
of writing, between tue grantors and the
grantees as before named, and whereas,
an incumbrance on said Polk county pro-
perty of delinquent taxes, now appears on
the said records of Polk county, and a
deed of conveyance Of said property to
Mr.. Bailey, your committee would further
state that from the fact Of Mr.. White ha-
wing been party in drawing the instru-
ment or instruments of writing between
the grantors or grantees, and therefore
fully understands the object and considera-
ton received therefor; therefore in the
opinion of your committee, said article in
this days Transcript under the head of
Notice Warning,) can be intended for
no other purpose than to place the matter
in false light before the people, and as
much as possible embarrass inquiry and
retard the interests Of the county, regard
less of justice or right;-therefore your
committee would recommend that reso-
luton expressive of the honorable and fair
course pursued in the matter by this body,
and Mr.. J. H. Southwiek, on the one part
and the Unfair and unbusiness-like course
pursued by both grantors and agent of
said instrument on the other part, and
that said resolution be placed on the min
utes of this days proceedings.

Compound Extract of SarSaparillr

the most c~Tcctual remedy which the medical
skill of our times can devise for this every
where prevailing and fatal malady. 1t is com
bined from the most active rcmcdials that have
been discovered for the e%xpurgation Of this foul
disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the
cystcm from its destructive consequences
Hence it should be employed for the cure Of
not only s~crofula, but also those other aifoc-
tons which arise from it, such as ERUprIvE
and SKIN DISEASES, ST. ANruoNy's Fmr,
ROSE, or ERysIPELAs, PIMPLrs, PusrULrs,
BLoTcuEs, BLAINs and BoIIs, TUMoRs, TErrEE
and SALT RHEUM, ScALD HEAD, RINGwoRN,
RHEUMATISM, SYPHrLIrIc and MERcuRIAL DIS
EASES, DRoPSY, DYSPEPSIA, DEBILITY, and,
indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING FROM VITA
TED or IMPURE BLOOD. The popular belief
in " impurity oftbe blood" is founded in truth,
for s~crotula is a degeneration Of the blood. The
particular purpose and virtue Of this Sarsapa-
rilla is to purify and rcgenerate this vital fluid,
without which sound health is impossible in
contaminated constitutions.

DR.. j.. HOSTETTER'S
CELEBRATED STOMACH BITTERS.

But that numerous class who devote them
selves to literary and other sedentary pursuits,
and in Consequence of a want of physical exer-
else, become the victims of languor and debil-
ity, without nerve or appetite, have hitherto
sought in vain for some invigorating, life-giving
medicine, whose effects upon the system shall
be both speedy and permanent. Physicians of
ominence, and profoundly acquainted with the
requirements of the human frame, commend
HOSTETTER'S BITTERS as the safest and
swif.est stimulant to the recuperative energies
Of the system yet discovered. 1t restores the
appetite, gives fresh vigor TO the digestive
organs, sends the blood through the veins with
a more lively current, ~corrects a tendency to
depression of spirits, and fits a man for the
transaction of business with a cheerful heart
and an active mind. Unlike other medicines
which have been devised for the same object,
the BiG"TEE{S do not act spasmodically,
or with a temporary power - the influence of
the remedy is lasting. And if a patient will
but give some attention to securing proper
exercise, after the relief has been afforded, he
need fear no return of the a~tti;c-ion. The
debility natural to the encroachments Of years
upon the bodily frame is also alleviated by
this great strengthening medicine, thus enabling
the aged to pass their declining days in physical
ease; whereas they are now suffering from ex-
IRENE weakness and nervousness. To this VEN
erUOIe Class VI pGOp4c, I1OO L LIN =
BITTERS may be commended as invalu-
able. The proprietors of this invigorator have,
in addition, a deep qualification in assuring
NURSING MOTHERS that they will find
the Es II a e. Is s the best and safest of
rcstoratives. Very few medicines are sane
toned by physicians as proper to be admins
tered during the period of nursing; and this
has obtained an universal preference.
CO Those who desire to purchase this great remedy fer
Dyspepsia and Debility should remember the precise
title, OSTETTER'S CELEBRATED
STOMACH BITTERS. 1t is put up in quart
bottles, with tho name, DR.. ]. H0STETTER'S
ST0-TACH BTTTERS, blown on the bottle, and also
stamped on the cap covering the cork. with the autograph
OF IIOSTETTER { SMITH on the label. These things
are important, on account OF the numerous counterieits
now in the market.

all druggists, grocers, and dealers generally
throughoutthe United States, Canada, South
America, and Germany.

Scrofula, or King Evil.
Is \ Constitutional disease, q c.Iioptiou Of tae
oiood. by which tins tlud jccomes vtia'ld,
weak, and POOR. Being in the circulation. it
pcrvales the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which it may
not destroy. The scrofulous faint is v%ariouslv
caused by mcrcurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above all, by the %vencrcal infection. WHAT
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-
s%titution, descending Z" from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation !" indeed,
it seems to be the rod Of Him who says, IL
will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their children"
Its effects by deposition from .he
IloOd of corrupt or ~ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubercles in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, eruptious or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which genders in the blood, dcpresses
the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu-
tons not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases conse-
quently, vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this faint in the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofulous contamination and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
lection, and their health is undermined by it.

So wide is tie field Of its usefulness and so nu-

licly known. who have been restored from alarming
and even desperate diseases Of the lungs by its
use. When once tried, its superiority over every

for the distressing and dangerous affections Of the

who have achieved an degree of
prosperity with a climate extremely trying to
certain constitutions, and a soil of mall fertil-

communities in almost every thing that con-

fortunately, they are occasionally so absorbed
