Ague Cure,
a ~ER.sS


Intermittent Fever, or Fever and Ague,
Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague. Periodical Headache, or Bilious
Headache, and Bilious Fevers, indeed
for the whole class Of diseases origi-
mating in hillary arrangement, caused
by the Malaria Of minsmatic 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 10 offer, with perfect
certainty that it viii 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 il prevails. Preuentsoa il
better than cure, for the patient escapes the
risk which he must run in violent attacks of
this balcful distemper. This "Cunr" expels
the mias,natic poison of FgyER AND A0rE
from the system and prevents the develop
ment of the disease, IL taken on the first APP
proach of its premonitory symptoms II is
not only the best remedy ever vet 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 FEvEa
AND AauE prevails, every body should have it
and use it freely both for cure and protection.
1t IN hoped this price viii place il within the
reach of all-the poor as well as the rich. a
great superiority of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and GER
tain cure of Intermittents is, that 1t contains
no Quinine or mineral, consequently il pro-
duces no quinisrn 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 Agne Is not alone the consequence
oil the miazmatic 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, FIN In the Bowels, Collie,
Paralysis, and Derangement of the Stomach
all of which, when orisinating in this cause,
put on the intermittent type, or become period
ical. This Cum" expeis the poison from
the blood, and consequently cures them all
alike. Ii Is an invaluable protection to immi.
grants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing in the malarious districts. Ii taken
occasionally or daily while exposed to the in
fiction, that will be excrcted from the system,
and cannot accumulate in sufficient quantity
70 rpen into disease. Hence II is even more
valuable for protection than cure, and few viii
ever suffer from InterrnitteRts, il they avail
themselves of tho prn.e'*snl this remedy af
fprts.

Letter from Richmond.

Correspondence Of tie Alexandria Gazette.
RIeHMoSD. Feb. 22.-The House of Dele
gates passed to-day the bill authorizing the
consolidation of the North Western Virgin
la Railroad with the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad, on such terms as may be agreed
on between the two Companies, and then
adjourned to enable the Wing members to
participate in the proceedings OF the Wing
Convention.
Crowds of Delegates have been pouring
into the city by all the Roads, North, South,
East, and West, and there Is large atten-
dance. At - o'clock, precisely, the Con
yention was called to order by Henry W.
Thomas, of Fairfax, on whose motion Vim
cent w. Southall, esq, of Albemarle, was
unanimously appointed temporary Chair
man, and further, on his motion, commit
| tee of fifteen was appointed 10 nominate
permanent officers for the Convention
When the committee retired, Mr. Southall
made a very handsome address, abiding to
the distracted affairs of the country, and
setting forth the necessity OF organizing a
| National Union Party. After the close oil
his remarks, during the absence OF the com
mittee to nominate permanent officers, call
was made for T. II. Flournoy, the former
Wing candidate for Governor, to address the
Convention, which he did in a mastery el-
fort. lie portrayed the evils of Black Re
pubicanism, North, as well AS DlSunlonlsm
South, and told the Convention there was no
hope for either branch of the party, but
begged them to rally to the great National
| Union Party to be inaugurated.
The Convention on permanent organlza-
ton, reported JONI JANNEY, of Londoun'
as permanent President, and fifteen Vice
Presidents, among whom are ii. w. Thomas,
of Fairfax, and Allen Howison, of Prince
William. The Convention was then address,
sed by the President. 1t is hardly necessa,
ry to say his address was an able one, and
was received with deafening applause On
motion, the Convention adjourned to ;, J.
NJ. About 1000 Delegates are present
