HoLLowAY's PILIs.-Nature's Great Rcstorahve. e.- Physical Prostration When lassitude or weariness of body is felt without any indication of disease or the mind depressed and indifferent to external cares. some vital function is deranged-the human system, like any other piece of mechanism. is sub- ject to certain laws-the pendulum of clock stops and the whole organization is disordered- in like manner, when the human stomach or liver becomes affected we are mentally and physically prostrated. By removing these obstructions Hol- oways Pills restore the sufferer to the benefit and pleasures of permanent health. For purifying the blood, correcting the foulness of the stomach, and cleansing the secrctions of the liver these famous remedies the most safe and certain yet discov- cred.
 "HE REMEMBERrD THE FORGOTTEN was beauti- fully said of Howard the Philanthropist. It also applies to every man who brings the ameliora- tions, comforts and enjoyments of life within the reach of persons and classes who are otherwise de- privcd of their advantages. Especially may it be said of him who laboriuu ly seeks and fnds.new means of preserving health, .'thc poor man S capital and the rich man power." We think this eulogium properly applied to J. c. Aver of Lowell, the renowned chemist of New England, who, spurning the troddcn paths to fame, devotes his entire abilities and requirements to the discovery of Natures most cffectual remedies for disease When the hidden blessing has been revealed, he proceeds to supply it to all mankind alike through our druggists, at such low prices that poor and rich may alike enjoy it's benefits.

MARE THHsH EAc6sy The Testimony of the whole World,

 Inaoie preparation. To attempt to cure ad legs
 by plasteriDg the edges of the wound is folly for should the skin unite, boggs diseased condi-
 tion remains underneath to break out with ten.
 fold fury in few days The only rational and
 successful treatment as indicated by natare is to
 reduce the inflammation in about the would and
 to soothe the ncighboring parts by rubbing in
 plenty of the Ointment as salt is forced into meat
 SCARLET AND OTHER FEvERs.-Any of the above diseases may be cured by we'll rubbing the Oint-
 ment three times day into the chest throat and
 neck of the patient it will soon penetrate, and
 give immediate relief. Medicine taken by the
 mouth must operate upon the whole system ere
 its influence be felt in any local part whereas ] the Ointment will do its work at once. Who ever tries the unguent in the above manner for the diseases named, or any similar disorders affecting the chest and throat, will find them- selves relieved as by charm.
 l PILES, FIsruLAs STRIcTUREs.--The above class of complaints will he removed by nightly foment ing the parts with warm water. and then by most effectually rubbing in the Ointment. Persons suffering from these direfnl complaints should lose not a moment in arresting their progress It should be understood that it is not sufficient merely to smear the Ointment on the affected parts but it must be well rubbed in for some considerable time two or three times day, that it may be taken into the system, whence it will remove any hidden sore or wound as effectually as though palpable to the eye. There again bread and water poultces, after the rubbing in of the Ointment, will do great service. This is the only sure treatment for females. of cancer in the stomach, or where there may be general bear l ing down.
 INDIscRETIoNs OF YOUTH SORES AND ULCERS -Blotches as also swellings, can, with certainty be radically cured if the Ointment be used freely, and the Pills be taken night and morning as re. commended in the priated instructions. When
 treated in any other way they only dry up in one place to break out in another whereas this Oint-
 ment will remove the humor from the system, and leave the patient vigorous and healthy be-
 ing. It will require time with the use of the | Pills to ensure a lasting cure.
 DRoPsICAL SwELL1NGs, PARALYSIS, AND STIFF 1 JOINTS. Although the above complaints differ widely in their origin and nature, yet they all re- quire local treatment. Many of the worst cases, of such diseases, will yield in comparatively short space of time when this Ointment is dili- gently rubbed into the parts affected, even after every other means have failed. In all serious maladies the Pills should be saken according to the printed directions accompanying each box.

For Judge in the 9th Judicial Circuit,
TTLEO. G. SPENCER,
OF EAU CLAIRE.
The Democratic Convention.

The Democratic Judicial Convention
which met at Prescott last Wednesday,
nominated for the office of Circuit Judge,
L p. WETHERBY, of Hudson. This ac-
ton accorded with the general expeeta-
zion, and we have no doubt the party
have made the strongest nomination in
their power. Judge Wcthcrby has troops
of personal friends in the Circuit, but he
labors under the Same disadv antage po-
liticalIy, that the dog Tray d d socially
lie is in desperate bad company. This
same disadvantage is running the pros
poets of Democratic candidates al over
the Northern States, and we expect
Judge Wctherby's case will be no ex-
ception.
Judge Wctherby was nominated on
The first formal ballot, by "a out of q
votes. The Convention was so l.armo
NOUS as to be quite undressing. Very
little enthuiasm was fe't or manifested.

Republican Progress.

The Albany Journal, in reply to the
Atlds that the Republican party is fee
be and sickly," and on the point of dIsso-
lotion, thus speaks of its progress. 1t is
a proud record:
six years ago the Republicans had
not control Of a single State. Now they
are the strongest party in every State
north of Mason and Dixcn's line. SIX
years ago there was rot single Repub-
lean Governor. Now there are fourteen.
In six years they have q lrubled the
number of their Sena ors an Roplesen-
tatives in Congress. From a powerless
minority they have now risen to the high
est popular vote in the Union. No party
before ev r won such triumphs in so short
time. No party before ever held so
firmly what it gained. Every Guber-
Material Chair, every State Legislature.
every seat in the Senate, and almost
every seat in the House of Representa-
tives that has once become Republican.
has remained Republican. If these are
signs of ''feeble and sick'y existence"
lot us by all means have more of it.

EseceuIa.ni Find Timothy.

An anccdotc is related Of Col. Ebene- |
ger Chilas, of this city. and G. G. Sfoles
the present President of the Telegraph
Go. A long time ago, when Wisconsin
was youth, about the time OF organic
ing the State government, Col. Childs
and Charley Sholes, both members OF
the Legislature, had occasion to be travel
ing to the State capitol together from
Green Bay. Their route was by the way
of Stockbridge, on the shores of Win
nebago Lake, at which place lived Gut
ting Marsh, thorough bred Connecticut
Baptist, who kepta sort of a tavern, but
was extraordinary strict about observing
the Sabbath. This trait our travellers
were aware of, but there was no alterna-
tive, other than stopping over night with
him. The next day was Sunday-stated
the urgency Of their busness-Mr. Marsh
concluded thcy had better stay with him
any how, which was agreed on. The
travellers determined to leave in the morn
ing, before Marsh was up-Marsh was
too early for them, and insisted on their
staying till after breakfast. Now, be II
known, that Col. Childs was remarkably
bashfu and dffidcnt in the presence Of
ladies, and to add to the Coils. troubles,
there was in the house, six or eight las
the Co. says,) graf strnpping girls.
Breakfast over, Marsh ordered all
hands to prayers; the Col. by this time,
had got to be so nervous he could hardly
set STILL Marsh passed around to each
bible, and he would open the SERVED
by reading chapter from Timothy, re-
questing each person to read q verse iu
turn. The Col. usually was sound on
bible quotations, and perfectly familiar
with the geography of the good book
but the women had half crazed him-he
rumaged the New Testament all through
fumLled in the Cd Prophots-Daniel,
Job and jeremiah were on hand, but
Timothy would not make bis appearance
"no how" 1t was almost his turn to
read, but no Timothy. The Col. by this
time, could hardly contain himself, and
finally, rs q last resort lie turned to
ShoIes, and handing him the bible, said {:
"7Here as a fre gear old mare Of mine
IN tie barn you can hare, # yon viU Just
tell me where to find Tim" This out
burst broke up the meeting. But the
sequel was the richest. The story, some
how, found New York, and made It's ap-
pearance in tie New York O5SerUor
| embellished with column Of Missionary
ape j to Christians in behalf Of the
heather of Wisconsin, and the Legislature
in particular, and before that winter was
out, bibles were distributed throu. hou'
the State, with positive instructions
where to find TImothy.-La Crosse

A remarkable letter has been publ.sl.-
ed by President Lord, Of Dartmouth Col
lcre, in which positions are taken that
seem incredible when the standing and
profession of the writer are considered
Here is its gist:
"Without miracle, see not but that
slaves will yet be called for by New Eng
land men-slaycs having the attributes
if not the name of slaves, and possibly to
worse condition than we now complain
of in reference to the South. Why not,
if our present government should last an
other eighty years? For Yankees will
not perform the mental work of life.-
They are above it now. The imported
free servants of ireland and other coun-
tries will soon be infected with Yankee
Independence, and have the means of
Wing, above servile labor, on their free
holds! Then who will be oar servants
| Shall we have coolies or Africans to hew
our wood and draw our water? And
what form of government shall be over
| them but that which is adapted to their
comparative rudeness and imbecility. and
conservative of the general system? The
children and grandchildren of our pres
ent abolitionists may yet be the first to
introduce a harder serfdom than has yet
been known, unless, indeed, they should
themselves be compelled to sell themselves
for bread, and suffer the proper chastise
ment of their fathers sins for their rebel
Ion against the government Of God"
