Thomas Jefferson on Arbitrary Arrests.

10 the draft of instructions for the Virginia
delegates to the frat Revolutionary Congress,
drawn up by Thomas Jefferson, We find, in his
detail OF guidance, his indignation thus vigor7
ously expressed: f'fl'~ r,,,s
"The wretched criminal, ifhe happens to have
offended on the American side, stripped of his
privilege of trial by peers Of his vinclnage, re-
moved from the place where alone full evidence
could be obtained, without money without coun-
sci, without friends. without exculpatory proof,

contamination is variously caused by mcrcuiai
disease, low living, disDrdcrcdi digestion from
mhealtIly foods impure air, filth and filthy
habits, the depressing vices, and, above All, by
Tie vencreal Infection. Whateyerbeit its origin,
it IS hereditary in the constitution descending
d" lr)m parents to children unto the third and
fourth generation " indeed ii seems 10 be the
rod Of Him who says, al will visit the iniqu-
ties oi the fathers upon their children" The
disease, which il originates take various names,
according TO the organs ii attacks. In the
lungs, Scrofua produces tubercles and finally
Consumption; in the glands sweings which
supplrate and become ulcerous sores in the
stomach and bowels, arrangements which pro-
ducc indigestion, dyspepsia, and liver com
plants on the skin, eruptive and cutaneous
affections. These all having the same origin,
require the same remedy, viz. publication and
nvigoration Of the blood. Purify the blood,
and these dangerous distcmpers leave you.
With feeble, foul, or corrupted blood, you can
not have health; with that " life of the flesh
healthy, You cannot have scrofulous disease.

Ayers Sarsaparilla

is compounded from the most effectual anti
dotcs that medical science has discovered fol
tijs afliiciing dstcmper, and for)the cure OF me
disorders il entails. That it is far superior to
any other remedy yet devised, is known by ali
who have given it a trial. That il does com
bine virtues truly extraordinary in their effect
upon this class of complaints, is indisputably
proven by the great multitude Of publicly
known and remarkable cures it has made Of
the following diseases Kings Evil or
0lsndular Swellings, Tumors, Erup-
tions. Pinples, Blotches and Sores, Fry
sipelas, Rose or st. Anthonys Fire, Salt
Rheum, Scala Head, Coughs from tu-
bsrcrllous deposits in the lungs, White
Swellings, Debility, Dropsy, Neuralgia,
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Syphilis and
Syphilitic Infections, Mercurial Diseases,
Female Weaknesses, and, indeed, the whole
series OF complaints that arise from impurity
Of the blood. Minute reports of individual
cases may be found in AYERS AMERICAN
ALMANAC, which is furnished to the druggists
for gratuitOus distribution, wherein may be
learned the directions for its use, and some of
the remarkable cures which it has made when
all other remedies had failed to afford relief
Those cases are purposely taken from all sec
tOns Of TIE country, in order that every reader
may have access to some one who can speak TO
him of its benefits from personal experience
Scrofula dcpresses the vital energies, and thus
leaves its victims far more subject to disease
and its fatal results than are healthy constitu-
tions. Hence it tends TO shorten, and does
greatly shorten, the average duration of human
life The vast importance of these consdera-
tions has led us to spend years in perfecting
remedy which is adequate to its cure This
We now offer to the public under the name of
AYERS SARsAPARILLA, although it is COM
posed Of ingredients, some of which exceed the
best Of Sdrs1pdriRa in Alternative power. By
its MD you may protect yourself from the suffer-
ing and danger Of these disorders. Purge out
the foul corruptions that rot and tester in the
blood; purge out the causes of disease. and
vigorous health will follow BY its peculiar
virtues this remedy stimulates the vital func-
tons, and thus expels the distempers which
lurk within the system or burst ont on any
part Of it,
I We know the public have been deceived by
many compounds Of SdrsaPddHd, that promised
much and did nothing; but they will neither lie
deceived nor disappointed in this Its virtues
have been proven by abundant trial, and there
remains no question of its surprising excellence
ior the cure of the affecting diseases it is in
taplel TO reach Although under the same
nllnc 1t is a very different medicine from any
other which has been before the people, and is
far morc etfectual than any other which has
ever been available to them. .
