DgS~HEADAcHE is the favoritc sign by which
nature makes known any deviation whatever
from the natural state Of the brain, and view
ed in this light it may be looked oa as a safe
guard intended to give notice Of disease which
might otherwise escape attention, till too late
to be remedied; ana its indications should
never be neglected. Headaches may be class
fled under two names, viz: Spmptomatic and
ingly common and is the precursor Of great
variety of diseases, among Which are Apo
plexy. Gout, Rheumatism and oil febrilc dis
cases. In its nervous form it is sympathetic
Of disease of the stomach constituting sick
headache, of hepathlc disease constituting BILL
aous Aeadochc OF worms, constipation and other
disorders Of the bowels, as we'll as renal and
uterine affections. Diseases of the heart are
very frequently attended with Headaches; An
aemia and plethora arc also affections which
frequently occasion headache. Idopathic
Headache is also very common, being usually
distinguished by the name Of nervous headqche
sometimes coming on suddenly in state Of
apparently sound health and prostrating at
once the mental and physical energies, and in
other instances it comes on slowly, heralded
by depression of spirits or acerbity of temper.
In most instances the pain is in the front Of
the head, over one or both eyes, and sometimes
provoking vomiting; under this class may also
be named Neuralgia.
For the treatment Of either class of Head
ache the Cephalic Pills have been found sure
and safe remedy, relieving the most acute pains
! in few minutes, and by its subtle power erad-
icating the diseases Of which Headache is the
unerring index.

Diptheria.
'jan17-2w

As the newspapers are full of remedies
for this dangerous affection of the throat,
some Of them very good, and some of them
very silly, we will give one which we
know to be used by some eminent physi-
clans and which we have never known to
fail, if applied early. Diptheria in its
early stages, may be recognized by any
person Of ordinary capacity, by two mark
ed symptoms; the sensation Of bone or
hard substance in the throat, rendering
swallowing difficult and painful, and a
marked factor, or unpleasant smell of the
breath, the result of its putrefactiyc tend
ency. On the appearance of these symp-
toms, if the patient is old enough to do so,
give piece of gum camphor, the size Of
a marrowfat pea, and let it be retained in
tho mouth, swallowing slowly the saliva
charged with it until it is all gone. In
an hour or so give another, and at the
end of another hour third fourth
will not usually be required, but if the
pain and unpleasant breath are not reliey-
ed, it may be used two or three times
more, at little longer intervals, say two
hours.
1.-THE child is young, powder the cam
phor, which can easily be done by add
ing drop or two Of spirits of alcohol
to it, and mix it with an equal quanti-
ty Of powdered loaf sugar or better,
powdered rock candy, and blow it through
quill Or tube into its throat, depressing
the tongue with the haft of spoon.
Two or three applications will relieve.
Some recommend powdered aloes or pelli-
tory with the oamphor, but observation
with experience have satisfied us that the
camphor is sufficient alone. It acts prob
ably by its diffusible stimulant and antisep-
tic qualities.-N Y: E1om,iner.
TIE LONDON I INES ON COERCION
A recent article in the London Times
says There will not be a Carolinian
President, with ENJOYS duly accredited
at the foreign capitals of Washington and
London, but the authority of the federal
government will be impotcnt within the
limits of the State, and the people, if de-
termined to remain obstinate. will under
take to manage their own post Office, their
own customs, the lightning of their coasts,
and will. perhaps, go to the length Of
constructing and arming domestic fortress
es. A strong-minded President like
jackson, whatever his own sympathies,
would probably not hesitate to crush the
Carolinians by force. It is evident. in
deed, on the smallest reflection, that the
South, even if united, could never oppose
for three months the greatly preponderat-
ing strength Of the North. A few hun
bred thousand slaveowners, trembling
nightly with visions Of murder and pillage,
backed by dissolute population Of "poor
Whites" are no match for the hardy and
resolute populations of the Free States
The Northerners have hitherto treated
the South like petulant child, and Civ
en- it all its ways; but if ever the day of
conflict were to cone it will be shown
that the South is but child IN its weak
ness as we'll as its frowardncss,
