0TOld Kentucky has again most glorious
ly expressed her attachment and devotion TO
the Government under which we live. 'She
was the FIRST new State to come into the u
nion, and she will be the last to GO out" In
spite of the recent National disaster al Ma
nassasand the sneaking bot vindclive treach-
cry of her Senators, Breckenridge and Pow
ell, and her representative BurDet, Kentucky
has by tremendous vote repeated the ver-
dict she declared in June. Then she gave
near fifty thousand majority for uncondition-
al loyalty TO The Union, in her choice of Rep
resentaIives 10 Congress. Now with a far
less important issue before the people, and
under greater difficulties, she has gisen uear-
y as great majority for the maintenance of
the Union and Constitution against the at
tack of all their enemies. The new Legi-la a.
ture is largely for the Union, and compara-
lively few of the counties have given a de-
cent vote for secession.

Health and Pure Blood are Inseparable.

Recollect that all sickness arises from impu.
rlty of the blood, and that Judson's Mountain
Herb Pills will as surely find out and cleanse
these impurities from the system. that disease
cannot exist. So simple and innocent are the
herbs and plants that compose them. that il is
not necessary 10 have them sugar coated in or
der that the stomach can bear them. In most
cases, Pills are sugar coated because the ma
terlals of which they are made are So gripping
and malignant, TINT otherwise n delicate stoin-
ach could not bear them.
These Pills deal with disease as il is. and
will not only cure by removing the cause. but
will build up and restore the broken constitu-
hon. There are many who have So tritlcd with
their constitutions that they think medicine
cannot help them let not even these despair,
inereduhty and skepticism is oyerthrown by u
mass of testimony which is truly irresistible -
Al first the virtues ascribcd tothe MOUNTAIN
HERB PILLS were deemed fabulous. The
public have been SO often deceived that they
could not believe the simple truths advanced by
their dlscoycrer. Yet facts undcnablc attest
ed by witnesses of the highest character and
responsibility, have proved aud are proving
each day the virtues Of this mighty healer "
