So wide is the field of its usefulness and so nu-

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, It's superiority over every
other medicine of It's 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 disear&d, 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.

Ague Cure,

A6 AO OA4O9
FOR THE SPEEDY CURE or
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 miasmatic countries.
No one remedy Is louder called for by the
necessities of the American people than q sure
and safe cure for Fever and Ague. Such
we are now enabled to offer, with perfect
certainty that it win 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. Prepenf,on is
better than cure, for the patient escapes the
risk which he must run III violent attacks of
this baleful distemper. This ..CuRY" expels
the miasmatic poison of FEVER AND AGuE
from the system and prevents the develop
ment of the disease, If taken on the first APP
preach of its premonitory symptoms. 1t is
not only the best remedy ever vet discovered
for this class of complaints, but also the
cheapest. The large quantity we supply for
a dollar brings it within the reach Of every
body; and in bilious districts, where FEvEn
AND A0uI 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 any
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 Ague 10 not alone the consequence
of the miasmatic poison. A great variety of
disorders arise from its irritation, among which
are Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headaeh he,
Blindness. Toothache, Earache. Catarrh, Asth-
ma. Palpitation, Painful Election Of the
Spleen, Mysteries, lin III the Bowels. Collie,
Paralysis, and Derangenent Of the Stomach,

put ON the intermittent aype. or become PERIOD
ical. This "CuRE expeis the poison rom
the blood, and consequently cures them all
alike. II Is an invaluable protection TO immi-
grants and persons travelling or temporarily
res ding in the malarious districts. If taken
occasionally or daily while exposed to tho in
fiction, that will be excreted from the system.
ard cannot accumulate in sufficient quantity
TO ripen into disease. Hence il is even more
valuable for protection than cure and few will
ever suffer from Intermittents, il they avail
themselves of the prrteetins tla reYns1y af-

that they can break up the Democratic

want Sir, there is one feature in this
. bill Of itself II vast Importance It gives
TO these settlers two years, at least, to
save their homes If they DO not get any
better provision at the end Of that time.
they have, at least, that two years time.
The bill was passed BY vote of IL
yeas to ) nays. These voting il tie mega
tive were:
NAYs-Messrs. Bragg. Clingman. HAN,
LIN, Hunter, Mason, Pearce, Powell, and
Toom5,
The b;II came up for final action on the
och Of May, after it hal been vetoed by
the President, and IN attenpt was made
TO pass it over his veto Mr. Douglas
was not present AT that time, but was
paired of with Mr. Clay Of Alabama, be
cause Of the sickness and death Of lis
child, Which occurred at that time On
after the veto, % were in the affirmative.
Of whom nine were Democrats and Is in
the negative.
This IS not by any means al Of Mr..
Douglas record on The homestead. It
is but a small part, bu, il is sufficient to
determine what his views are. as thew are
in this case consistent with lis action ever
since lie has been in Congress Here we
see that, while Mr. Douglas voted for the
Senate bill, Mr. IamIin, true, 0 his enmity
TO all such measures, voted against it, alone
Of all the Republicans What Mr. Lin
coins precise views NAV be relative to the
law IS not known, bat NAV Re easily in
ferred from the fact that when in Con
gress he voted against giving the soldiers
IN the Mexican war homestead Of one
hundred and sixty acres, and it is very
naturally to be inferred that, ifhe opposed
the grant to those who had fought the
battles Of their country, much more would
he oppose grant to ordinary settlers.
The homestead measure has never been
n party measure, but local ore. The
Republican party were never known to
interest themselves in the measure until
the winter Of 1859, when with their &C
cuslomel honesty they seized hold of this
matter to hambug the people aud gain
votes.

DEATH OF DISTINGUISHED CANADIAN
.OFEIcIAL.-S!r George Simpson, the Gov
ernor Of the Iiudson's Bay Company, died

age Of ct years. His name has long been
honorably associated with the movements

he died. The honor of knighthood was
conferred upon him by Qneen Victoria in
