SIXTIES It has been deemed necessary
toldo this on account of the false sto-
ries yentilated by the abolitionists at
the North about the roasting and quar-

Such an act if passed by our Legisla-

clever people to our State and at the
same time go far towards removing

DIR. HUNTERS LETTER.-We publish
In another column, an interesting and in-
structiye letter from DR.. Hunter on that prev
alsat and melancholy disease, consumption.
Dr.. Hunter has already contributed to our
columns several communications of like
nature, discussing those diseases which
most frequently preeede and almost inevita-
bly lead to this dread malady, and his theory
and argument are certainly plausible and
convincing. There is probably not another
physician in the country who has had
greater experience in the treatment, or con-
trfbnted more to the literature of these dis
eases, and the evidences of his success in
New York, and other cities to which he has
paid professional visits, are many and of
the most fattering description. There are
thousands in our midst under. the ban of
this treacherous disease, vending their way
slowly but certainly to a consumptiye's
grave, and to whom the popular ignorance
of she causes and early symptoms of this
disease will prove most fatal To such DIR.
Hunters letter will be interesting and in
stractive

Removal OF A POPULAR MEDICAL DEPOT,

To chronicle the important changes which occur
periodically In the world OF business s at ALI times
pleasing task for the pen OF the reporter and the
more when such changes have become requisite in
order 70 afford facilities for large and steadily In
creaslng business The removal of the well-known
firm OF Johnston, Holloway & Cowden, wholesale
agents for all tho patent aud proprietary medicines
both In this country and Europe. a In point.
These gentlemen have been engaged in their present
occupation for nearly quarter Of century. during
which time they have passed unsoathed through
several periods OF commercial disaster and witnessed
the downfall OF many OF their compeers. who with
less discretion, were unable to stem the adverse cur
rent Their business has from the starting point been
conducted with consummate ability. and affords n
fAr Illustration OF what may be accomplished by un
tring energy and application As time rolled on their
trade steadily increased. until II assumed such pro-
portions that the old location, No. 20 North Sixth
street. became entirely inadequate for conduotingit
advantas eously hence a removal to more extended
quarters deemed expedient. They, therefore,
leased the large hve-storied iron structure, No sO2
Arch street, and having reftted It throughout With
all the necessary fixtures and appointments opened
Il for business about the Hrst Of the present month.
In addition to this, the old Warehouse, No. 21 N.
Sixth street, Will be retained and used n storage
room, Al also for the packing and shipment Of coun
try orders. These facilities will ebvate much OF the
delay that has heretofore occurred In shipping goods
during busy seasons.
In securing such hne architectural building as No
500 Arch street. the firm have been partic aary oru-
nate, as IL is admirably adapted TO their requirements
Having front of 30 feet on Arch street, aud extend
Ing about 100 feet TO circular skyght in the rear,
In large, with ample light and ventilation.
The stock comprises everything In She category OF
Patent Medicines, among which may be found an In
finite variety OF Bitters Cordlals, syrups PanAceas
Lozenees Pills. etc. ETC.. not omittng the celebrated
Worm Connections OF DR.. Holloway. These last have
attained world wide celebrity, and being very palA
table, and easy administer to children have become
INN ensely popular,
There several other articles prepared only by
this house. but limited space will permit of
description. To Southern and Western merchants
well other wholesale buyers, the advantages
of dealing at such depot the above will be seen
ut glance We therefore hazard nothing in saying
that all who Ere In want of such merchandise will
find to their decided advantage to cali at this lead
ing establishment, as its proprietors now possess
facilities for doing business unequalled by any house
In this country.
