CONSTITUTION WATER

Has been pronounced by the Medical Faculty and the
public to be the most wonderful remedy for the per-

cd, and we now say let no man doubt, when single

best medical talent in the country failed to relieve.
A remedy possessing the virtues Of Constitution
Water cannot be classed under "duack" prcpara-
tiOns, IL is now used by the most scientific prac-
titioners in the city. is only second-class physi-
clans that cry down popular remedies while the bet
ter skilled make use Of every means to accomplish
a acure and the success Of the physician increases
as his knowledge Of different remedies enables him
to produce cure, while Others fail in the attempt
Science is satisfied with the truth.
Give Constitution w later fair trial-we mean you
who are under some SPECIALISTS care from year TO
year. and we particularly allude to ladies who are
constantly resOrting to LOCAL TREATMENT, and all
sorts Of local applications for diseases with as much
chance Of success rs there would be from local ap-
pcations TO the throat for diseases Of the brain.
We have always been careful to use language in
our circular that could not shock the most delicate
organization, but we receive many communications
from persons for whom Constitution Water is adapt
ed, and of whose disease mention has been made,
that we have to the conclusion that If the rem
edy Is capable Of producing cure, no matter what
the disease may be, II should be made known. The
medicine is put up for the public and there should
be no exceptions.

Ayers Sarsaparilla

is compounded from the most effectual anti
dotes that medical science has discovered for
this affecting dstemper, and for the cure or The
disorders it entails. That It is far superior to
any other remedy yet devised is known by all
who have given It 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
Glandular Swellings, Tumors, Erup-
tions, Pnnples, 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 ArER's AMER1oAN
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.
tions 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 depresses the vital energies, and thus
leaves its victims far more subject to disease
and its fatal results than are healthy constitu-
tons. Hence il 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 pcrfecting q
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 .SdrsapdriH0 in alternative power. By
its aid you may protect yourself from the suffer-
ing and danger of these disorders. Purge out
the foul corruptions that rot and foster in the
blood purge out the causes of disease, and
vigorous health will follow. BY its peculiar
virtues this remedy stimulates the vital func-
tions, and thus expels the dstcmpers which
lurk within the system or burst out ON any
part Of it.
We know the public have been deceived by
many compounds of SdrsarariRa, that promised
much and did nothing; but they will Dcither be
deceived nor disappointed in this. IL virtues
have been proven by abundant trial, and there
remains no question of its surprising excellence
for the cure Of the affecting diseases it is in
tended to reach. Although under the same
name, it is very different medicine from ar
other which has been before the people, and
far more effe,rual than any other which J
ever been available to them.

The New Chief Justice.

Five years ago, says the New York
Tribune, had any one suggested Salmon
p. Chase as the probable successor of
Roger B. Taney, in the most responsible
and eminent position of Chief Justice Of
the United States, he would have oeen
regarded as in need Of a straight jacket.
The chasm that separated the late from
the present incumbent of that station is
wider than tha. spanned by the twenty
years sleep of Rip Van Wrinkle, to which
he lay down loyal subject of King
George, and awoke a fellow-citizen of
President Washington. The death CT
Judge Taney during the night following
the popular vote whereby Maryland was
made Free State marked the close of an
era; the accession OF Judge Chase marks
the commencement o. another The
passing away of the one, the opening of
the other. occur in the midst of gigantic
civil copvulsion which has piled the earth
with its slain, and filled the sky with the
smoke of its confagratioLs; but we need
not doubt that the angry clouds of battle
and havoc will soon be illumined by the
bow of Cancellation and peace.
The unanimity and heartiness wherewith
Gov. Chase's appointment has been vel
coined. argue general appreciation OF the
changed attitude of our country-far more
general than had been previously realized.
The clamor and clash of parties in our late
Presidential contest have given place to
general conviction that Impartial Liberty
is henceforth to be the fundamental law of
the Republic: hence the instructive per-
The Alleghanian. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1859-1865, 1864-12-15

ception that Gov Chase is the very man
for Chief Justice. For more than twenty
years he has not only believed but also
proclaimed that Liberty. In our Union is
the general and permanent rule, Slavery
the local and transitory exception. He so
held when to affirm a vital faith In the
Rights of Man as Man was to bid adieu to
all hope Of political power or honors: he
has continued so to hold until, through
the madness of the Slaveholding interest,
it has become possible to love and uphold
Impartial Freedom without thereby incur
ring ostracism or prescription. His present
position adds another to the visible, tanSi-
bic encouragcments to faith in the Right,
aud in the present palpable activity of
Divine Justice In the affairs of mankind.
The position of Chief Justice has been
filed, since it was created by the Federal
Constitution, by four persons, namely, l.
John Jay, of New York; 2. Oliver Ellis
worth, Of Connecticut; 3. John Marshall,
of Virginia; 4. Roger B. Taney, of Mary
land. Messrs. Jay and Ellsworth were
respectively nominated by Washington
and each resigned after serving for few
years only; Judge Marshall was nominated
by John Adams just before his retirement
from the Presidency; and Judge Taney
by Gen. Jackson In the latter half of his
second term. Marshall took the Office in
his maturer prime, and held it over thirty
four years, dying in it at the ripe age of
so; fancy accepted it when nearly so, yet
held it almost thirty years, dying Chiet
Justice at the ripe age of 81. As Ellis
worth lived to be Y, and Jay to be SO,
the Office may DC deemed favorable to
longevity, and We may reverentiy hope
that its new incumbent has many years o!
vigor and usefulness before him.

Message has been extended, the enemy
driven from his securest positions, and
important territory wrested from his grasp,
unit. he is now confined within limits
swhere his complete subjugation is reduced
to mere matter of time. Already have
the results Of the war exhibited the utter
folly Of the struggle on the part of the
slave master. Old slave States are abol
ishipg slavery States are declaring
for freedom-and free sentiment is being
created where, four years ago, to speak of
liberty was to invite death. All this
prognosticates the final and complete
overthrow of slavery in all tie States
where If is now legalized, and the speedy
redemption of the Union from the barba-
rous disgrace which now furnishes its
escutcheon.
In conclusion, Mr. Lincoln reiterates
the resolution which distinguished the
polcy OF his ADMINISTRATION curing the
past four years in reference to rebellion.
The slave holders rebellion is to be put
down, regardless of the cost or the hazards
involved in the effort. The authority of
the land must and shall be vindicated. To
compromise with treason would be to sap
the foundations of our national existence.
To yield single demand to insurgents
with arms in their hands, would be to ad-
nit the validity of their claims, as we'll as
acknowledge the weakness of the Govern
ment. Relying on the support of the
people, and believing in their valor, the
President is determined to prosecute the
war. until he wrenches obedience from
traitors, and establishes the complete
peace of the country.
