AYERS CATHARTIC PILLS

Are the most perfect purgative which we ars
able to produce or which we think has ever
yet been made by any body. Their effect have
abundantly shown to the community how much
they excel the ordinary medicines in use They
are safe and pleasant to take, but powerful to
cure. Their penetrating properties stimulate
the vital activities of the body, remove the OBJ
struCtOns Of its organs, purify the blood, and
eXpel disease. They purge ont the foul humOrs
which breed and grow distemper, stimulate
sluggish or disOrdered organs into their natural
action, and impart healthy tone with strength
to the whole system. Not only do they cure the
everyday complaints of everybody, but also
formidable and dangerous diseases. While they
produce powerful effect they are at the same
time, in diminished doses, the safest and best
physic that can be employed for children. Be-
ing sugar rooted, they are pleasant to take and,
being purely vegetable, are free from any risk
of harm. Cures have been made which surpass
belief were they not substantiated by men of
such exalted position and character, as to for
bid the suspicion of untruth. Many eminent
Clergymen and physicians have lent their names
to certify to the public reliability of our rene
dies, while others have sent US the assurance OF
their conviction that our Preparations cOntri-
buted immensely to the relief OF our afflicted,
suffering fellow men.

The Country in Danger.

The Richmond correspondent of the New

has found mares nest. A new rebellion is
evidently in process of incubation. This time,
however, it will be female rebellion. The
signs are not to be mistaken. " A. NJ. D."

patriot he sounds the alarm. Says he:

This discovery, it is feared, will occasion a
widespread panic-but we hope that the
country will exercise self-cOmmand, and that
Congress will deal with the threatened evil in
a composed and stateSman-like manner. After
some reflection, We think we have hit upon the
proper preventive remedy. 1t is 10y consttu-
tional amendment. Mr.. SUMNER or Mr.. STE
VEINS will, no doubt, appreciate the extent and
the imminencc of the peril, and as they are

the Constitution, will, it is hoped, come
promptly to the relief of the country and pro

Sumner-His Future Rewards.

We wonder if it ever occurs to the saturnine
Senator from Massachusetts, CHARLES SUMNER,
as it does to everybody else, that he is render
ing himself extremely ridiculous by parading
the negro before the Senate, in season and out
Of season. He is playing the part of the organ
grinder with his monkey, who shows of at every
corner. The country is growing tired OF the
show. Ii has become monOtOnOus. Mr.. Sun
NER is on all hands voted bOre-a solemn,
pompous, pedantic, one-dead bore. When Con
gresS first assembled, he let Off volley OF ne
groresolutions, prepared with much care during
the recess. He kept up the fire to the day Of
adjournment, and FASTENED to resume where no
left of, as soon as Congress re-assembled. He
has a white constituency-buth he turns his back
upnn them and prefers ia, he considered the
representative of the Southern negroes. He
has become the mouth-piece of all the negroes
from Maryland to Texas. Their petitions and
memorials are all addressed to him, andby him
presented to the Senate. lie aSpires tn the
character Of the tribune of the negroes, and as
such will 20 down to pOsterity, if indeed he
shall be SO lucky rs to go down to pOsterity at
all. He will doubtless be compensated for all
his labors. A thousand young barbarians yet un-
born will be named CHARLES SUMNER, in
memory of his services, just as they heretofore
have been named HANNIBAL, CESAR, and
ScIPIo. The race of HANNIBALs, C.ESARs and
ScIPIoS will become extinct, aud every third
young negro at least, will be named CHARLES

D,id,lle-aged and young This is the grand
desiderahm of the present policy it IS to I'LL
the purse and cure the cravings of theaPpetite'
Send the whole negro population to school, and,
forthwith, the fields will bring forth corn and
wheat, and tobacco, and cotton, and sugar, and
everything that delights the heart of the speeu-
lator. The circle WILDE squared some OF these
days, no doubt, by some sable NEWTON, or
new method of discovering the longitude by
some Molungeon ARCHINEDEs, and such an
achievement will be bread and meat to the
whole African race.

Northern spectators are making preparations
to push their trade with the South. What
they are TO trade in we cannot cOnceiye-that
Is To SAY. what the South is to give them in ex-
change for the satchels and spelling books they
are furnishing to the rising genius of Africa
As for tobacco and cotton, the art Of producing
them is not taught in schools. They require
manual labor, aud that the negro population,
who are all To be educated for philosophers
aud poets, will not afford. II is true, one Mr..
LITTLE, who has been sent South by the Urea
sury, reports that there is plenty of money At
the South, but as the thing Is simply lhpoSS'-
BILE. the LITTLE statement will have only little
belief. 1t Is true, Philadelphia has voted four
hundred thousand dollars for building line Oh
steamers to trade with the South, while she Is,
tbroupb her press and her representatives IN
Congress, exerting her power to the utmost to
render the South forever unprOductive. 1t IS
true that the New York Chamber of Com
merce revels in anticipation Of wealth yet to
come from trading in Southern cotton. But
how are any of these to realize their dreams, II
the cotton is not to be found, and if the ne
groes, obeying the advice they have received,
and are every day receiving from these very
quarters, refuse 10 plant cotton, or tobacco, or
to work the crop after it shall have been
planted
How beautifully consistent are the acts of
the Radicals. They break down our whole
system of labor-they persuade the negro that
ii is a degradation to work for honest wages
they render production an impOSsibility' anu
then they stand and cape in "stohlshmen' At
the result of their work. They rip up the
goose. and still expect the golden eggs. For
our own part, We bear the evils of our situation
better when we witness the approximations
which are taking possession Of the merchants
and manufacturers of the North. They have
become conscious how necessary the South
with its products is to the commercial prosper
ity Of the North. They have ruined it, and
let them take the consequences.

Prospects of Labor

We republished from the Fredericksburg
Herald, Monday, the result of the attempt
made by the farmers Of that vicinity to procure
labor by hiring for the ensuing year. There
was more than the usual proportion OF negroes
present at Spotsylvania court, and tho number
of farmers was also large. Not single negro
was hired, although terms, not only liberal,
but even bordering GU the eXtrayagant, were
offered. Not 4 negro could DO induced to hire
himself out for the year-not one wOuld take
service for a longer term than two months. As
the work Of the farmer is not mere job, to lie
finished in day, a week, or a month, but 4
continuous system Of regular labor, not to DC
neglected at certain most important seasons
under penalty OF losing tho whole years work,
short terms like this would not suit his pur-
pose, and Of course no bargains were made.
The negro expects to live by little Jobs until
he shall get his share of his late masters
lands, which, General GRANT and Mr.. SHAFT
NER say, the men formerly employed about the
Freedmen's Bureau persuade him is shortly
coming. An old and familiar condition of at
fairs exists here in greater intensity than any
where else in the world old and familiar, -
we call il, because such it is to every other
spot upon earth, though here it is novel and
nDfamiliar-in other words, the strife between
labor and capital has been introduced, among
the other blessings for which we were called or
not long since to return thankstO Heaven. Ii ha'
sprung into the midst of us-like MINERVA from
the brain of JovE-full grown, full armed, ant
bent upon mischief. 1t appears here in wors,
form than il has assumed anywhere else in the
world. In other coutries it affected the manu-
faeturers and employees of the manufacturer
influencing the bread market only me-
diately. Here, the very production o
bread is threatened. The very labOrel
in the fields, whose labor is used TO feed
everybody, refuses to work, and bread must
cease. AS the Southern people have NJ
moneys they are, indeed, the poorest people
on the face Of the earth-the situation is fear
full. Every hearty and hale man, if he eau
work, can make enough for HIMSELF provided
he have land. But what is to become of the
four millions of negroes who have no lands, and

hoped that this Is the fact and that farmers and
Others, who have observed any of the indications
mentioned on their lands will make an effort TO
have them developed. The expense of boring
which is the way to ascertain is comparatively
small. Indeed it is nothing to the results obtained
il Unsuccessful in striking vein Of oil. II, however
there are those who have good reason TO believe that
oil may be found on their lands, and are neverthe
less unwilling to risk money in searching for it let
them by all means, report it to some one versed in
this business and if there is probability of lis ex-
istence the matter may soon he tested without eX-
pense to the land owner. A discovery of petroleum
within the limits of Eastern Virginia would be a
great thing for ia. F.#s.
