We nrc enabled here TO offer the community rem
edy which, while it cures the above complaints with
certainty, is still perfectly harmless in any quantity.
Such remedy is invaluable in districts where these
affecting disorders prevail. This "CrnE" cNpois the
miasmatic poison Of FEVER AND AGuE from the sNs-
ten. and prevents the development OF the disease If
taken the first approach Of its prcmontory synp-
toms. 1t is not only the best remedy yet 6scov
cred for This class II complaints hut also the cheap
it within the reach of every body and in bilious dis
trcts, wh,rc fEvEn AND AGuE prevails, every body
should have it and it freely both for ard pro-
tccton A great superiority of this remedy over any
other discovered for the speedy and certain
of lnteM,irnts is that it contains Qninne min
era, ounsr, uently it produces no quinism other
injurious elects whatever upon the constitution Those
cured by are left healthy they had never had
the disease.
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence of the
miasniatic poison. great variety Of dsord' alae
from it, irritation, among which Npnukgid, Rtcu-

whirh when originating in this cause, put the
int,rBF nttgpe, or become periodical. This " "trRE"
cxpels the poison from the blood. and consequently
cures hei all alike 1t is an invaluable protection 10
iinmgran,s and persons travelling temporaril,
siding in the na.aious districts. 1ftaken occasionally
daily while exposed to the infection, that will he
excrcted from the system, and cannot accumulate in
sufficient quantity to ripcn into disease. Hence il ia
even more valuable for protection than cure and few
will sr'ier from Inlcrnittcnts if they avail them
selves of tie protection this remedy affords.

The District Conventions.

A writer in the Rockingham Register nomi-
mates Hiram L. Opie, of Augusta, and Robert A
Gray, of Rockingham, as delegates from this
District to the Charleston Convention, and REQ
ommends them as national Democrats" un-
fettered by personal preferences. The District
Convention to elect delegates to Charleston will
meet in Harrisonburg on the 9th of April.
The Convention for the Fourteenth Electoral
District, which met at Parkersburg on the 10Th,
elected Hunter delegates by about two thousand
majority. 1t is reported that the Hunter men
in Louisa county played shabby trick upon the
friends of Gov. Wise, at their meeting to appoint
delegates to the District Convention, on the 9th
inst. A resolution in favor of Wise having been
offered and supported by large majority, a
division was called for, and the majority going
out of the hall to allow the votes to be counted,
the minority availed themselves of the opportu
nifty to break up the meeting! The Wise men
in Albemarle also are complaining of unfair deal
ing in that county.
The Convention which met at Norfolk on
the 10th, was unanimous in expressing prefer
ence for Governor Wise. The Winchester and
Wheeling Districts have gone for Senator Hun
ter, so far, therefore, Hunter has three Dis
tricts, and Wise one.
