timely use of some proper remedy.
DR.. HALLS BALsAM strikes at the root OF the
disease at once, anu such is its speedy effect
that any one using it freely according TO di-
~rections for twenty -four or forty-eight hours,
and not entirely satisfied with its merits,
may return it and receive back their money.
The most distressing cough is frequently re-
lieved by q single dose, and broken up IN q
few hours time. The afflicted do not have
10 take bottle after bottle before they lind
whether this remedy will afford relief or not.
The public have been imposed upon by
remedies recommended by certificates which
have always originated from some unknown
source. We believe that q medicine possess
ing real merits will effect cures wherever it
10 used, at home as we'll as abroad. This 10
NO paregoric preparation, but one which il
used in season will save the lives Of thou
sands.
It has effected cures in numerous cases.,
where the most skillful physicians in this
country and in Europe have been employed,
and have exercised their skill in vain. Cases
which they have pronounced incurable, and
surrendered as hopeless beyond a doubt,
leaving the patients without a single ray 70
snliven them in their gloom, have been cured
by DR.. Halls Balsam, and the "victims OF
consumption" are now vigorous and strong
as the most robust among u.s. ana the5e
cases are not isolated ones they are numer-
Gus, and can be pointed out in every COM
munity where this most unrivaled remedy
has been tested.

FIeHTING ON THE SABBATH.-It,ia
said by those who are acquainted with
the history of American battles, that
not a single battle, waged and fought
on the Sabbath, was gained by the at
tacking party during the war of the
Revolution. In public assembly. of
citizens, that statement was made as q
matter of fact, and the hope was ex-
pressed that General Scott might be
induced to follow the example of Gem
eral Washington, never to engage the
enemy on the Sabbath unless first, at
tackled by them. Let our fatigued and
worn out soldiers have the Sabbath for
rest. Our troops must have rest, and
need the Sabbath.
