10000 DOLLARS REWARD

! 1T is estimated that 10000 persons die annu-
4 ally in the United States, with consumption,
and Professor Ebcrly says, that vast number
Of these could be saved by the timely use OF
some proper remedy.
| DIR. HALLS BALSAM strikes at the root of
the disease AT ONCE, and such is its speedy ef-
feet, that any one using it freely, according TO
directions, for twenty four or forty eight hours,
and not entirely satisfied with its merits may re-
turn it and receive back his money. The most
distressing cough is frequently relieved by a
Isiuglc dose, and broken up in a few hours time.
The afflicted do not have TO take bottle after bot
tie before they find whether this remedy will
afford relief or not.

tbs.
It has effected cures in numerous cases, where
the most skillful physicians in this country and
in Europe have been employed, and have exer-
cised their skill in vain. Cases which they pro-
nOunced tRcaVdbke, and surrendered as homeless
beyond a doubt, leaving the patients without a
single ray TO enliven them in their gloom, have
been cured by Dss. HALLS BALKAN.
and the "yictins Of consumption" are now Wig
Orous and strong as the most robust among us.
And these cases are not isolated ones they are

munity, where this most unriyaled remedy has
been tested

about the lungs being gone; or rather let no
such apprehension induce you to give up. act
upon the principle that tolite there is life there is

to the rebels, but now that the most effec

are rare. Fort Sumter suffers in meek 81

than half the time. Forts Moultrie and
johnson shoot with no great yigor and our
men easily dodge under cover and avoid the
danger. In the meantime new forts are be
