For tie Democratic Press.
Mr.. EDITCR,-In sclf-defense, I
wish to say a few words with ref
erence to the proceedings of a
Congregational Meeting, held in
the Presbyterian Church of Eaton,
on the 7th OF November last, as
published in the Eaton Register, of
tie 18th of the same month. The
reasons for calling the meeting are
not stated, only as shown by their
Resolutions, viz I: to endorse what
is known as the "Spring Resolu-
tions," which they say were passed
unanimously, which 1 suppose is
true of those who were present,
some of whom were rot members
of the Church. The inquiry was
made, why call such a meeting at
that time? why not have passed
said resolutions, say two or three

tanning a medicated compound, to be worn
around the Waist. without injury to the most
delicate persons. No change in habits of
living is required, and it entirely removes
the disease from the system, without pro-

of the skin, eflectlng in ece,y instance a per-
feet cure, and restores the parts afflicted to a
healthy condition. This band is also a most
powerful ANTI MERcuRIM agent, and will en-
tirely relieve the system from the ~pernjciows
effects of Mercury. Moderate cases are
cured in a few days, and we are constantly
receiving testimonials Of its efficacy in az
gravated cases of long standing.

Ague Cure,
FOR THE SPEEDY CURE OF


intermittent Fever, or Fever and Ague,
Remittent Fever, chill Fever, Dumb

He ndache, and Bilious FeveIs, indeed
for the whole class of diseases Originate
ing In bilinry dcrn ngcmcnt, caused by
the Malaria OF MiasmRtic Countries.
We arc enabled here TO offer tho community a
remedy which, while it cures the above complaints
with certainty, is still perfectly harmless in any
quantity. Such Il remedy is invaluable in districts
where these affecting disorders prevail. This
"CuRE" cXpclS the mlaSmatic poison of FEVER
AND AGuE from the system, and prevents the de-
velOpnent Of the disease, if taken OH the first APP
proach of its premonitory symptoms. 1t not only
the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class
Of complaints, but also the cheapest. The large
quantity we supply for a dol.L 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 cure and prOtcc-
ton. a great superiority Of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
cure of lntCTmittcnts is that it contains no Qninine
or mineral, consequently it produces no Quinism or
other injurious ELECTS whatever upon the %cOnstitu-
ton. Those cured by it are left as healthy as if
they had never had the disease.
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence of
the mlasnatic poi>oH. A great variety of diSOr-
derS arise from its irritation, among which are
Neuralgia, Rheumatism, CANT, Hcddachc, Blind
