rating properties stimulate the vital activities OF
the body remove the Instructions of its organs,
purify the blood, and expel disease. They purge
out the foul humors which breed and grow dis
temper, stimulate sluggish or disordered organs
into their natural action, and impart healthy
tone with strength to the whole system. Not on
y do they cure the everyday complaints of eve
rybody, but also formidable and dangerous dis
eases. While they produce powerful effect, they
are at the same time, in diminished doses, the
safest and best physc that can be employed TOR
children. Being sugar-coated, 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 forbid the suspicion Of untruth. Many eminent
clergymen and phi, sycians have lent their names
to certify to the public the reliability of our REM
edies while others have sent us the assurance OF
their conviction that, Preparations contrib
ute immensely to the relief Of our afflicted suffer
ing fellow men.
The Agent below named is pleased to furnish
gratis our American Almanac containing direc-

the following complaints:
Costiveness Bilious Complaints, Rheumatism,
Dropsv, Heartburn, Headache arising from foul
stomach, Nausea. Indigestion, Morbid lnacton OF
the Bowels and Pain arising therefrom Flatuen-
cy, Loss of Appetite, all Diseases which require
an evacuant medicine. They also, by purifying
the blood and stimulating the SYSTEM cure many
complaints which it would not be supposed they
could reach such as Deafness, Partial Blindness,
Neuralgia and Nervous Irritabiity, arrangements
of the Liver and Kidneys, Govt and other kin
dred complaints arising from low state OF the
body, or obstruction Of its functions.
Do not be put off by unprincipled dealers with
other preparations which they make more profit
on Demand AYERS and take no others. The
sick want the best aid there is for them, and they
should have it.

A FEDERAL burial party arrived here last week
for the purpose of establishing Cemetery near
this place, in which to bury the Federal dead who
have fallen on the various battle-felds, and else
where, in this proximity. We learn that they
have selected piece of land belonging 10 Messrs.
Byers & Smart, about one mile east of this place,
on the Waynesboro road, for their Cemetery and
will commence the work Of cxhuming and rein
terring the dead at once. Members of this party
are said to have behaved badly in Harrisonburg,
getting articles from persons and refusing to pay
for them, except iii abusive terms. We hope they
may not be guilty of such conduct here.

LAST week many of our people were on the look
out for the Meteors. On the nights they were Seer
tainly" to be visible everything was on the alert,
but like those in other communities, they were
doomed to disappointment, the grand show being
now reported to have taken place in daylight
The next time the celestial consultations are to
give their grand periodic display, we recommend
the plan of 4" Brick Pomeroy" viz: the observa-
ton of the heavens through the medium of Cogni-
&C. when, if enough of sud medium be used if
shooting stars be not observable, we can see no
reason why they should not be- but for one thing
we can vouch, you will at least have shooting
pains compensation.
