Fever and Ague,

from which mankind suffer over large mart al
the globe, is tho consequence of diseased action
in the system, indueed by the poisonous miasm of
vegetable decay. This exhalation il evolved by
the action OF solar heat on vet SOIL and rises with
the watery vapor from IL. While the sun Ia below
the horizon this vapor fingers near the earth's sur
face, and the virus Ia taken with 1t through the
lungs into the blood There acts as an irritating
poison on the internal viscera and excretng organs
OF the body. The liver becomes torpid and fails to
secrete not onlyihis virus, but alsp 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
disnrdered also. Finally, the instinct Of our or
gtusm, as II In an attempt to expel the noxions
infusion, concentrates the whole blood Of the body
In the internal cxcretories 10 force them To cast Il
out. The blood leaves the surface, and rushes to
the central organs with congestise violence. This
Is the CHlLL. But I'm this effort ii fails. Then the
FEVER foIlows, IN which the blood leaves the CEN
tral organs and rushes to the surface, as If in
another effort to expel the irritating poison through
that other great excretnry - the skin. In this
also il fails, and the system abandons the attempt
exhausted, and waits for the recovery OF strength
to repeat the hopeless effort another day. These
are the fits on psroxysms of FEvER AND AeuE.
Such constitutional disorder viii OF course UNDER

Ayers Ague Cure,

SsEaliycs this maarious poison In the
Wood. aua stimulates the liver to expel II from the
t9Sy. As Il should, so it does cure this affecting
disorder with persect certainty And it does more
or rather does what Ii OF more service to those sub
ject TO this infection liz taken i'm season it expcis
1t from the system ii is absorbed, and thus keeps
those who use it free from ita attacks; keeps the
system IN health although exposed to the disease
Consequently il not only cures bat protects from,
the great variety of affections which are induced
by this malignant influence, such az Rcmittent
Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb. or Masked Aaue
Periodical Headache, or Bilious Headache, Bilious
Fevcr9, Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Blindness,
Toaihache, Earache, Catarrh. lima, Palpita-
tons, Painful Affections of the Spleen Mysteries,
Colic. Paralysis. and Painful Affections OF the
Stomach and Bowels, all of which, when arising
from this cause, will be found to assume more or
less the intermittent type. This AGuE CuRE .
removes the cause of these derangen.ents and
the disease
This it aeenmplishes by stimulating the excre-
tones To expel the virus Norn the system and
these organs by degrees become habitoa to do this
their office of their own accord. Hence arises what
we term ncchmnfuts0a. Time may accomplish the
same end, but often life Is not long enough or Id
sacrif ced in the attempt while this . AGug Ctnn =
does it at once, and with safety We have great
reason TO believe thus is a surer as well as safer
remedy for the whole class Of diseases which are
caused by the miasmatic inf.e .etion than any other
which has been discovered; and il has still another
important advantage TO the public, which il, that
1t Is cheap as well as good.

TIE publishers of the TRUE DEMOCRAT propose to issue sstri-weekly editiono of heir pa per, in addition to the weekly. and com mence it's publication about the first day of June next or sooner, if 1000 subscri- bers be obtained.
 tfehie great batttte of t the age is to fought in November next, and it is necessary that every man in the community should be kept informed of the movement of the enemy. The very existence of the South is at stake, and it becomes every Southron to be up and doing. Intending to be firm and decided, yet calm and prudent, it will be our aim to defend the rights of the South without buster or bravado. The times demand increased activity on the part of democrats. and that full and speedy information should be spread before the pub lic This is the first enterprise of the kind in the State-is demanded by the exigencies of the times and we confidently look to the DEMOCRACY for it's support.

CONDITION OF THE NEGROES IN NEw

CONDITION OF THE NEGROES IN NEW YoRK The New York Herald publish. es a lengthy accoun, of the negro popnIa- sion of that city, from which we condense the following facts:
 The whole number of this class of per sons is about ll,000 About one-,hird of them are paupcrs. receiving their sub. sistance from the public and private char ities of the city, one.lhird are engaged at labor from which they are enabled to make q bare living, and the remaing third live from hand to mouth, by their wits and by thieving and pilfering in small way The whole amount of taxable property in the hands of the colored population in the city IS about $500 900, and is owned by nbout twenty persons. Their social con dition is of the lowest and most degraded type, being much below that of any class in the Union, whether bond or free. Their religious culture is sadly deficient, and hence the proportion of crime among them IS very great. The number of arrests for the last year was one in eleven. of the en- tire tolored population But their crimes are generally of a petty description. They appear 10 be incapable of commit ting ou.rages which require great bold. ness or great ingenuity, except in rare in- stances.

es9y- The Mormon faction, under |

Esy- The Mormon faction. under the leadership of Joe Smith, Jr., have recently been holding meetings in Illinois Missouri and Ohio, and have determined to re-es- tablish themselves at Kirkland, Lake county, Ohio. where, not many years since, 3 900 of that sect congregated and erected most magnificent temple. This temple is to be refilted in gorgeous style.
 Kirkland is village pleasantly situated on a branch of the Chagrin river. Smith is already on the ground, and the new "stake" will be in full blast in few weeks. The re.eslablshment of Mor- monism there on an extensive scale l: said to have caused excitement among the rural population. We shall now see who is greatest, Joe Smith or Brigham Young Unfortunately, wide space separates them, otherwise the old game ot "dos eat dog" might soon relieve Congress troublesome question.
