Fever and Ague,

from which mankind suffer over large part of
the globe, is the consequence of diseased action
IN the system, induced by the poisonous miasm of
vegetable decay. This exhalation is evolved by
the action of solar heat on wet SOIL and rises with
the watery vapor from it. While the sun is below
the horizon this vapor fingers near the earths
face, and the virus is taken with it through the
lungs into the blood. There it acts as irritating
poison the internal viscera and excreting organs
of the body. The liver becomes torpid and fails to
secrete not only this virus, but also the bile from
the blood. Both the virus and the bile accumulate
in the circulation, and produce violent constitu-
tional disorder. The spleen, the kidneys, and the
stomach sympathize with the liver, and become
disordered also. Finally, the instinct of our
ganism, as if in attempt to expel the noxious
infusion, concentrates the whole blood Of the body
in the internal excretories to force them to cast it
out. The blood leaves the surface, and rushes to
the central organs with congestive violence. This
is the CHILL But in this effort it fails Then the
FEVER follows, in which the blood leaves the
trail organs and rushes to the surface, as if in
another effort to expe the irritating poison through
that other great excretory-the skin. In this
also it falls and the system abandons the attempt
exhausted, and waits for the recovery of strength
to repeat tle hopeless effort another day. These
are the fits or paroxysms of FEVER AND AGuE.
Such constitutional disorder will of course under
mine the health if it is not removed.
We have labored. to find, and have found, an

Beiden, 81 ask the court to order
these men into the custody of the Mar
shall"
The court then ordered the Marshal
to take the prisoners into custody, when
Judge Spaulding requested that their
recognizances might be cancelled.
Court now adjourned to Monday
morning at 10 o'clock, the counsel for
the defence giving notice that they
should consider it their duty to chal-
lenge the jury at that time.
We have already announced that the
prisoners, refusing to give bail or to go
at large upon their own recognizance,
went to Jail. OF the scenes of the jail
we have the following:
On arriving at the Jail they were
kept waiting for some time in the rain
while Sheriff Wightman called upon
the County Commissioners to receive
orders as to opening the doors of his
residence to such delegation Of the
citizens of Lorain county. When he
returned he answered that he could not
take the men as prisoners; but would
open his sitting room to them and make
them as comfortable as he could. He
was unwilling to take men as prisoners
for doing just what he would have done
in like circumstances. They were ac-
cordingly taken into the sitting room
where they were as well taken care of as
the case would admit.
They occupy the supper rooms of the
jailor's department and are not thrust
into the cells. Sheriff Wightman did
all in his power to provide beds for the
guests, and we presume they passed
tie night comfortably. We happened
to call in upon them last night near the
hour of retiring, and found them just
attending the evening devotion. Prof
Peck read from the Bible chapter es-
pecialIy addressed to those in bonds
and affection, and after social hymn
offered an eloquent prayer for their sup-
port and encouragement. Such men
do not often finch.
The next day being Sabbath, the
s Herald describes the scenes at the jail
on that day
The Jail Oh Saturday afternoon ap.
peared more like place of fashionable
resort than q prison. Hundreds of la
dies and gentlemen of the highest
standing called on the Obcrlin prison
ers, and left them but few intervals dur
ing the Jay and evening for rest. Or
all sides they were greeted with assn
RANGES of sympathy and respect, ming
led with severe comments on the extra
ordinary conduct of District Attorney
Belden, in ordering their arrest in viola
ton OF all precedent, and in contemp
ct all decency and propriety.
On Sunday afternoon, according II

Ayers Ague Cure,

which neutraizes this malarious poison in the
blood and stimulates the liver to expe it from the
BODY As it should, so it does cure this affecting
disorder with perfect certainty. And it does more,
rather does what is of more service to those sub
ect to this infection. If taken in it expels
it from the system 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 from,
the great variety Of affections which are induced
by this malignant influence, such as Remittent
Fever. Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked Agne,
Periodical Headache, or Bilious Headache, Bilious
Fevers Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Blindness,
Toothache Earache, Catarrh Asthma, Palpita-
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 moro OF
Tess the Intermittent type. This sAGUE CrEE "
removes the of these arrangements, and cures
she disease.
This it accompshes by stimulating the excre-
tories to expel the virus from the system; and
these organs by degrees become habited to de this
their office of their accord. Hence arises what
we term dcrkimGtGti01a.- Time may accomplish the
same end, but often life is not long enough, or is
sacrificed i'm the attempt. while this " AGuE CURE +"
does it at once, and with safety. We have great
reason to believe this is a surer well safer
remedy TOR the whole class of diseases which
caused by the miasmatse infection, .haB any other
which has been discoyered and it has still another
important advantage to the public, which is, that
it is cheap as well as good.
