A CuRE.-A correspondent of the
Clinton Courier, in Westmoreland, re-
lates very singular cure:
"Mrs. B., some two years since, was
thrown from her horse, and sustained an
injury to her hip which from that day
to this has baff1ed the skill of the ply
sicians of this vicinity; gradually her
limb shortened, so that standing up
right her toes touched the floor; and
by the aid of erutches it was barely
possible for her to take dozen steps,
perhaps, each day. From paining
her severely only at intervales, she
came to be at last in lconstant agony;
and at night it was only by her husband
placing his feet around her foot and
pushing the limb towards the foot of
the bed, that she could obtain rest.
About three weeks since, as her hus-
band was relieving her in this manner
as was his wont, the limb suddenly
gaze scay, Mrs. B. uttered fearful
cry of pain, and the bone slipped into
its socket! For two years she had
been suffering from hip out of joint.
The lady soon regained the use of her
limb, and is now almost rs well as
ever"

The good times when our fathers rode
In safety by the stage,
Have passed before the outward march
OF this progressive age;
And now no goodly coach and four
Draws up beside the stage house door.
How rang the laugh, the jest and joke,
As all together rode,
coach'd up in friendly jolity
Like boys of one abode:
The wearied miles seemed shorter then
As thus we rode DER hill and glen.
Full half the pleasure of the way
Was appetite and fare
This gather'd from "mine hosts full board"
That from the mountain air,
Oh then went life's aowery ways.
They ended with our staging days.
OH that was music! when at morn
As winding round by yon old mill,
The driver blew his bright tin horn.
And echo answered from the hill;
Now, neither horn, or prancing team
Is heard amidst this age of steam.
But drawn beneath some shattered shed,
The old stage-coach neglected stands;
It's curtains iaping irthe wind,
The ghost of ruins waving hands;
While on the wheels the gathering rust
Proclaims the mortal, dust to dust"
White in the field their scatter'd bones,
Or on the common turned to die;
Their trips" all Ger, their "routes" oil run,
The wheelers and their leaders lie,
The drivers pride and labor gone,
And che like one who stands alone"

At the present time there is quite a large num-
Der of persons who will not be trusted at all, and
there is much larger portion of the community
who cannot get credit any where, but are obliged
to pay cash at credit prices. These two classes
FORM perhaps more than oBe-half of our popula-
ton and there is no good reason why poor man
should pay more than a rich one; and no sense at
all in charging CASH CUSTOMERS for bad debts
incurred under the present mode of merchandising
If the people will only bestow one thought upon
the subject they will at see that-paying GUS
toners all the bad debts, or in other words,
they take all the risks of the credit system. The
present time is very discouraging for making debts;
the obligations of the people are now very large,
larger by far than the crops this season will dis
charge Property of all kinds is continually run
ming down, and how would it be with us in the
event of total partial failure of the crops
next season? Is there one so blind that he cannot
see that in such an event it would take large
amount Of property to pay very small debt. Who
then, is SO bold as to increase their liabilities un-
der this state of things?
Let Retrenchment, Economy, Industry Perse-
verance and no more MAKING DEBTS be the
Watchword, and take word for it. in less than
three years time shall be free from debts, sit
ting by own firesides surrounded with plenty,
contented and happy.

AYERS
Ague Cure,
FOR THE SPEEDY CURE OF

FOX The SPEEDY CUhE oE
Intermittent Fever, or Fever and Aguc,
Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious
Headache, and Bilious Fevers, indeed
for the whole class of diseases orisi-
mating in hillary arrangement, caused
by the Malaria of miasmatic countries.
No one remedy is louder called for by the
necessities of the american people than a sure
and safe cure for Fever and Ague. Such
we are now enabled to offer, with perfect
certainty that it will eradicate the disease,
and with assurance, founded on proof, that
no harm can arise from its use in any guam
tity.
That which protects from or prevents this
disorder must be of immense service in the
communities where it prevails Prcuentio. is
better than cure, for the patient escapes the
risk which he must run in violent attacks Of
this baleful distemper. This "CURB" expcls
the miasmatic poison of FEVER AND AauE
from the system and prevents the develop
ment of the disease, if taken on the first APP
proach of its premontory symptoms. 1t is
not only the best remedy ever yet discovered
for this class of complaints, but also the
cheapest. The large quantity we supply for
dollar brings it within the reach Of every
body and in bilious districts, where FEVER
AND AGUE prevails, every body should have it
and use it freely both for cure and protection.
1t is hoped this price will place it within the
reach of all-the poor as well as the rich. A
great superiority of this remedy over amy
other ever discovered for the speedy and GER
tain cure of Intermittents is, that it contains
no Quinine or mineral, consequently it pro-
duces no quinism or other injurious effects
whatever upon the constitution. Those cured
by it are left as healthy as if they had never
had the disease.
Fever and Agueis not alone the consequence
of the miasmatic poison. A great variety of
disorders arise from its irritation, among which
are Neuralgia, Rheumatism. Gout, Headache,
Blindness, Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asth-
ma, Palpitation, Painful Affection of the
Spleen, Mysteries, Pain in the Bowels, Collie,
Paralysis, and Derangement of the Stomach,
all of which, when originating in this cause,
put on the intermittent type, or become period
ical. This " CURE" expels the poison from
the blood, and consequently cures them all
alike. 1t is an invaluable protection TO immi-
grants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing in the malarious districts. If taken
occasionally or daily while exposed to the IN
lection, that will be excreted from the system.
and cannot accumulate in sufficient quantity
to ripen into disease. Hence it is even more
valuable for protection than cure, and few will
ever suffer from Internittents, if they avail
themselves of the protection this remedy af-
fords.

So wide is the field of its usefulness and so Eu-
merous the cases of its cures, that almost
every section of country abounds in persons pub
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
other medicine of its kind is too apparent to escape
observation, and where its virtues are known, the
public no longer hesitate what antidote to employ
for the distressing and dangerous affections of the
pulmonary organs that incident to our climate.
While many inferior remedies thrust upon the
community have failed and been discarded, this
has gained friends by every trial, conferred benefits
on the afflicted they can never forget, and pro-
duced cures too numerous and too remarkable to
be forgotten.
