Ayers Sarsaparilla

is compounded from the most effectual anti
dOtes that medical science has discovered for
this affecting distempcr and for the cure Of the
disorders it entails. That it is far superior to
any other remedy yet devised, is known by al
who have given it u trial. That It 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 mado Of
the following diseases Kings Evil or
Glandular Swellings, Tumors, Erup-
tions, Pimples, Blotches and Sores, Fry
sipelas, Rose or st. Anthony's Fire, Salt
Rheum, Scald Head, Coughs from tu-
berculous 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 AMERICAS
ALMANAC, which is furnished to the druggist;
for gratuitous distribution, wherein may bc
learned the directions for its use, and some Of
the remarkable cures which it has made wheI
all other remedies had failed to afford relief
Those cases are purposely taken from all sec
tions Of the country, in order that every reade
may have access to some one who can speak tt
him Of its benefits from personal experience
Scrofula dcpresses the vital energies, and thu
leaves its victims far moro subject to diseas'
and its fatal results than are healthy constitu
tions. Hence it tends to shorten, and doc
greatly shorten, the average duration OF humaI
life The vast importance of these considcra
tions has led us to spend years in perfecting
remedy which is adequate to its cure. Thi
VIC now offer to the public under the name o.
Ayers SARsAPARILLA, although il is com
posed Of ingredients, some OF which exceed tn
best of ISdrs1pdriHd in Alternative power. b,
its aid You may protect yourself from the suffer
ing and danger Of these disorders. Purge OIL
the foul corruptons that rot and tester in tn
blood; purge out the causes of disease, an,
vigorous health will follow. BY its peculia
virtues this remedy stimulates the vital func
tions, and thus expels the distempers whic
lurk within the system or burst out on an
part Of it.
We know the public have been deceived b
many compounds Of STsdpdrLid, that promise
much and did nothing but they will neither b

have been proven by abundant trial, and thcr
remains no question Of its surprising excellenc
for the cure Of tho affecting diseases it is in

far more effectual than any. other which hu

contamination is variously caused by mercurial
disease, low living, disordcrcd digestion from
unhealthy food, impure air, filth and filthy
habits, the depressing vices, and, above all, by
tho venereal infection. Whatever be its origin,
it is hereditary in the constitution, descending
" from parents to children unto the third and
fourth generation;" indeed, 1t seems to be the
rod Of Him who says, " will visit the iniqui-
ties Of the fathers upon their children" The
diseases which it originates take various names,
according to the organs it attacks. In the
lungs, Scrofala produces tubercles, and finally
Consumption in the glands, swellings which
suppurate and become ulcerous sores in the
stomach and bowels, arrangements which pro
duce indigestion, dyspepsia, and liver COM
plants; on tho skin, eruptive and cutaneous
affections. These all having the same origin,
require the same remedy, viz. publication and
inYigoration of the blood. Purify the blood,
and these dangerous distempers leave you.
With feeble, foul, or corrupted blood, you can,
not have health with that life Of the flesh %

A Regiment of 100 Days Men to
Night the Indians.

DENVER, Aug. 18.-A regiment of hun
dred days cavalry, authorized by the War
Department three days ago, to fight the In
dians, is already more than half filled, and
Is expected to be in the field in less than
ten days. They will operate along the
Platte valley for the protection of the over
land mail and wagon trains, with cooper
alton of troops from the east. 1t is hoped
this route will soon be re-established and
the Indians severely chastised. At present
all trains and mail coaches are stopped.
Friendly Indians report extensive combi-
nations of the Cheyennes, Arapchoes, Kaws,
Sioux, Camanches, Utas and Snakes for a
war of determination against the whites
Martial law is enforced here. All places of
business and workshops are closed until
further orders. Several independent CON-
panies are about ready to start out. A few
days will demonstrate the truth or falcity
of many wild rumors atloat.
Provisions of all kinds are very high and
advancing. Unless communication with
the States is speedily resumed, there will be
much suffering, if not actual starvation.
LATER.-The Indians murdered several
families and burned houses on Cherry
Creek, twenty-five miles from here, last
night. The settlers are fleeing to Denver
for protection. The Commander of the
District to-day issued a special order for
the enrolment of all able-bodied males
over sixteen. Drafting to fill the 100 days
regiments will be commenced Immediately.
A line of block houses are being erected
around the city. The fact that the tele-
graph wires are unmolested leads to the
belief that no whites are engaged with the
Indians.

General Early Reported Advance
ing.--Great Excitement in the
Valley.
New YORK, Aug. 1S.-The Herald has the
following special from Martinsburg, Va,
18th inst:
There is much activity here tonight, in
consequence Of reported advance of the
rebels. Skedaddlers have already COM
menced northern movement, and come
down the Valley, bringing various reports.
We have information of an engagement
at Front Royal. 1t is said the enemy has
been reinforced by one division of Long
streets corps and two cavalry divisions
Prisoners are reported to have stated that
the whole rebel army is moving. There is
much excitement in the valley.
1t is not supposed here by persons advised
that Early intends leaving the valley per-
manently, unless defeated, driven out and
kept out. Sending him fresh troops is con-
vincing proof to this effect. The rebels
seem to base their very existence in Vir-
ginia upon keeping up force to threaten
the Potomac line and keep large body of
troops in that region.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1S.-The Tribune's
special from Baltimore 18th, saws: We have
just arrived from the Shenandoah valley,
having left the front early Tuesday morn
ing. We were captured by guerrillas, but
made our escape by running the gauntlet
during the fight afterwards, with squad
of Union cavalry, OF whom three were kill
ed, including DR.. Curtis, 1st U. S. cavalry.
VI the rest three escaped, and the remain
der were either captured, killed or wound
ed. There were ten in all. Sheridan's dis
patches were with the party.
Considerable skirmishing had taken place
for the two days previous to falling back,
and both armies had their advance several
times in succession in Strasburg. One of
these charges was worthy of mention, but
having lost my memorandum book, can
not describe it. Our cavalry had been
scouting on the left toward the mouth of
Luray valley and the fords of the Shenan-
doah near Front Royal, and our right to-
ward Smokers Gap. The enemy had taken
up very strong position beyond Strasburg
at Fisher mountain, and on Monday de-
tachment guarding one of our signal sta
tions on mountain near Strasburg, was
captured by the enemy. Five hundred
men sent up afterwards had not been heard
from at last accounts.
1t was reported that Early had been REIN
forced by Longstreet, and that he was NOV
ing down on the west of North Mountain
to flank us at Winchester. Whether this
be true or not the friends of the rebels were
informed at Middletown before they retreat
ed that Longstreet would be at Woodstock
Sunday, and they promised to return again
on Tuesday.
Our rear has been infested with guerril-
las, supposed to be the same as those who
captured the train few days ago.

That we sOlemnly protest against the
usurpation and lawless despostism of the

our States.
Resolued, That we will not tolerate the
rule OF martial law or military interference
with elections, or any more arbitrary ar
rests of our citizens, to the maintenance of
which we pledge our lives, our fortunes,
and our sacred honor.
That the reply of President Lincoln to
Messrs. Clay and Holcombe furnishes un-
mistakeable evidence that the party
now in power have deluded the
people into the granting of un-
limited means for the purpose Of preserving
the Union which they have used and are
still using for the base end of overthiowing
State institutions, advancing party interests
and establishing them in permanent des-
potic power.
That it is our duty to hold in lasting rec
ollection those fearless men who in the ma
tional councils, in the press, or in popular
assemblies, have stood up for the peoples
rights and declared for peace.
