extraordinary discovery which the expe-

The tree is lying in desolate region,
about sixty miles north of Black Rock
and near what is called High Rock Can
on. Ii lay across several small gulches,
and was. partly buried in the soil. lis
length, So far as measured, the top being
deep under ground, was 666 feet, and
the general opinion of the company,
looking at it, was that it was from 40 TO
80 feet in diameter. Enormous tree :
Capt. Stevens thinks it is of the same
species as the trees of Mariposa
Fragments OF other trees of the same
kind, but smaller, are visible here and
there-stumps and butts of thirty feet
IN length-all peuified. And it is more
than propable that liule excavation
would discover vast primeval forest
there buried. This tIee lies exactly
where II fell centuries ago, for there are
The up turned roots, in just the position
they would most naturally be, and the
prone trunk bears no evidence of having
been disturbed. Ii seems strange thai
the remains of a great forest should thus
be found in a country, now wholly DIES.

Ague Cure.
FOR THE SPEEDY CURE OF

Intermittent Fever or Fever and Ague,
Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious
Headache, and Bilious Fevers; indeed
for the whole Glass Of Diseases origi-
mating In hillary arrangement, caused
by the Malaria of miasmatic countries.
No one remedy is louder called for by the ne.
cesslties OF the American people thaSa sure and
safe cure for Fever and Ague. Such a remedy
we are now enabled to offer, with perfect Ger,
tainty that it will eradicate the disease, and with
assurance, founded on proof that no harm can
arise from its use in any quantity.
That which protects from or prevents this dis
order must be of immense service in the commu-
mites where it prevails Prevention is better
than cure, for the patient escapes the risk which
he must run in violent attacks of this baleful
distemper. This "CURE expels the MAS
matte poison of FEVER AND AGUE from the
system, and prevents the developments of the
disease, if taken on the first approach of its pre-
monitory symptoms. 1t is not only the best
remedy ever vet discovered for this class of COM
plants, but also the cheapest The large guam
tty we supply for q dollar brings it within the
reach of every body; and in bilious districts,
where FEVER AND AGUE prevails every body
should have it. and use it freely both for euro
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
certain cure Of Intermittents is that il contains
no Quinine or mineral, consequently it produces
no quinsm or other injurious effects whatever
upon the constitution. Those cured by it are
left as healthy as if they had never had tic dis
ease. = $3.50 aAA .lNNa
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence
of the miasmatic poison. A great variety of dis
orders arise from its irritation among which are
Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache, Blind
ness, Toothachc Earache, Catarrh, Asthma,
Palpitation, Painful Affection of the Spleen,
Mysteries, Pain in the Bowels, Colo, Paralysis,
and Derangement of the Stomach all Of which,
when originating in this cause, put on the inter.
mittent type, or become periodical. This ''CUIE"
expels the poison from the blood, and conse-
quently cures them all alike. 1t is an inyalu;l-
bic protection 10 immigrants, and persons trav-
cling or temporarily residing in the nalarious
districts. If taken occasionally or daily, while
exposed to the infection, that will be cxcrcted
from the system, and cannot accumulate i'll suf-
ficient quantity 10 ripen into disease. Hence il
is even more valuable for protection than cure,
and few will ever suffer from Intcrrnittcnts, il
they avail themselves Of the protection this rem
edy affords.
