Fever and Ague,

rom which mankind suffer over large part Of
he globe. is the consequence Of q diseased action
n The system. induced by the poisonous miasm Of
vegetable decay. This exhalation is evolved BY
the action Of solar heat wet SOIL and rises with
the wa,ery vapor from it. While the sun is below
the horizon this yapor fingers near the car:hs sur
face, and the virus is taken with il through the
lungs into the blood There il acts as an Irritating
poison on the internal yisccra and excreting organs
Of the body. The liver becomes torpid and fails to
secrcte not only this virus, but also 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 sympathiee with the liver. and become
disordered also. Finally, the instinct Of our or
ganism, as IL in an attempt TO expel the noxicns
Infusion concentrates the whole blood Of the body
in the internal cxcrcsorics force them To cast II
out. The blood leaves the surface. and rushcs to
the central organs with congcsti,e violence. This
is the CHILL But In this effort it fails. Then the
FEVER follows, in which the blood leaves the cen
tral organs and PUSHES 20 the surface, as IL in
another effort 20 cxpcl the irritating poison through
that other great cxcresory-the skin. In this
also il falls and the system abandons the attempt
exhausted, and waits for the recovery Of strength
TO repeat the hopeless cHor, another day. These
are the f,s or .paroxysms Of FEVER AND AGrE-
Such constitutional disorder win OF course under

nc 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. Irerention ID
better than cure. for the patient escapes the
risk which he must run in violent attacks Of
this baleful distcmpcr. This "CUR." expcls
the mias,natic poison Of FEVER AND AorE
from the systcm and prevents the develop
ment Of the disease, if taken On the first ap-
proach 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
q dollar brings it within the reach Of every
body; and in bilious districts, where FEvsR
AND AouR prevails, every body should have il
and use it freely both for cure and protection.
It is hoped this price will place it within tho
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 1ntermittents is, that il contains
no Qninine or mineral, consequently il pro-
duces no quinism or other Injurious effects
whatever upon the constitution. Those cured
BY it ore left as healthy as if they had never
had tbs disease.
Fever and Agueis not alone the consequence
Of the miasmatic 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, Pain in the Bowels, Collie,

ELECTION OF OFF1cHRs.-The Hawthorne
Guards, attached to Colonel Mundy's Tenth
Kentucky Regiment, held an election for
company officers, at Camp King, on Sstur-
daylast w. G.. Holden was chosen Captain,
Riley Willett, First Lieutenant and E. G..
Holden Second Lieutenant. A few more
men will be received into the Hawthorne
Guards, if application be made at once.
HABEAs CoRPUs CAsE.-A writ of haJeqs
corpus was served on Colonel Mundy yester-
day for the release of Michael Connery, a
minor, alleged to be illegally detained at
Camp King. The case was tried before
Judge S. NJ. Moore, Colonel Mundy appear
ing in his own defense. The trial resulted
in Connery being remanded to the charge of
Colonel Mundy.
SERIOUS ACCIDENT.-0n Monday last, two
young men named George Coughln and
John Brookshau, employed at Balls Foun-
derry, on Fourth-street, got into a playful
scuffle. Brookshan having a knife in his
hand, which he was fourishing about,
Ooughlin in attempting to grapple with
Brookshan, was severely cut by the latter,
accidently of course. DR.. Adams dressed
Coughlin's wound. We hope this unfortunate
occurrence will teach the young gentlemen
q lesson. The practice of "skylarking, /"
which many youngsters are so fond of indulg-
ing lni nearly always terminates in one or
both of the parties being injured.
MEETING OF THE OoFFEE.HoUsE KEEPERS
LAST NlGHT.-The attendance at E0gine
house No. 3, on Pike-street, last night, was
quite large. The committee appointed at a
previous meeting to employ counsel in be-
balf of the coffee house keepers reported
that they had secured the services of Messrs.
Fisk, Cambron and Carlisle. Several parties
present stated that it was their belief that
the ordinance prohibiting the sale of liquor
on Sunday was constitutional, and recon-
mended that all coffee-house keepers and
vendors of beer, ale, &C., abandon their suit,
that may be imposed upon them. This sug-
gestion was very favorably received, and all
but the tavern-keepers withdrew from the
meeting. The tavern.keepers have deter
mined to continue the suit, and will retain
the gentlemen above named as counsel.
