A New Medical Dispensation.

The dark ages of medication now draw to a
close. Two great specifics are superseding all the
stereotyped and hackncyed nostrums of the age
DR.. Maggiel's Pills and Salve, by their extraor-
binary cures have opened the eyes of the public
to the inefciency of the (so-called) remedies up
on which they have so long blindly depended
MaggiePs Pills are not of the class that are swal-
lowed by the dozen or the score and of which
every box taken begets an absolute necessity for
another! One. or at most, two or three of Maggi-
ell Pills, sufces place the bowels in good con-
dition, tone the stomach create an appetite, and
render the spirits light and buoyant
There is no gripping and no reaction in the form
tons are restored and regulated If the nervous
system is feeble, it is invigorated. Ulcerous and
eruptve diseases are literally extinguished by the
disinfectant power of Maggleps Salve Invalids
who are wise enough to try these pure and pow
erful vegetable preparations will infallbly rec
ommend them discardng as comparatively val
ueess every other Pill and Salve in existence
In fact it will be found that MAGGIEL's BILIOUS.
DYsPEPTIC and DIARRHEA PILLS cure where
all others fail. While for Burns, Scalds, Chill
blains, Cuts and all abrasons of the skin, Mag
giefs Salve is nfallible.

sTAuNTnN LYCEuM.

On Monday night, the 2lst inst, the ami
versary of the establishment Of the Stanton
Lyceum, the following Officers elect entered up
on the discharge of their duties Col. Jno. B.
Baldwin, President; Col Bolivar Christian,
Vice President r. H. Guy, Esq, Secretary,
and Marshall Hanger Esq, Treasurer. Col.
Jas III Skinner, the former President, in va
eating the Chair, made few brief and appro-
pirate remarks welcoming the President elect,
whereupon that officer-Col Baldwin-before
entering upon the duties of his office, delivered
an inaugural address which was characterized
with the practical views and good sense which
uniformly mark his utterances. He became a
member Of the Iyceum, acting upon the prin
cple that he always wished to be participant
in whatever would tend to promote the moral,
social, intellectual, political or physical welfare
of this community. He thought the Lyceum
should be encouraged and sustained-that its
benefits, moral, social and intellectual, were
very great. That the men should become
members-some speaking and some contribu-
ting members-that such as did not become
members should likewise be willing to contrib
ute money to sustain the Lyceum and purchase
good library-that the ladies should encour.
age it by giving it the benefit of their presence,
and the smiles of their approval. He conclu-
ded by introducing the orator appointed to de-
liver the anniversary address before the Ly-
ceum, Y. Howe Peyton, Esq. Mr.. Peyton de-
livered an eloquent address which was listened
to by the large audience of ladies and gentle
men with rapt attention from the beginning to
the close
The following question was selected to be
discussed on next Monday night, the 9Th of
November:
''Resozced That the laws should prohibit the
transportation and distribution Of the mails on
Sunday
The following members were appointed to
discuss it:--In the affirmative, Rev. j. A. Lat
ane and R. Mauzy-in the negative, Col. JAS

nAUGUSTA STILL AHEAD %

The Register has the pleasure to inform the
Staunton Spectator that Augusta is still
ahead in the matter of large apples. Our
friend, Sam'l CARRIER, near New Hope, has sent
Us an apple measuring l53 inches and weigh
ing / J pounds, beating any Of the apples sent
to any of the editors III Staunton l-Register.
Mr. Sam'l CARRIER sent his apple to the Reg
ister for the reason, we suppose, that such APP
pies as are raised in this county would be con-
sidered curiosities in that Office, and to furnish
ocular demonstration to the citizens Of Rock
ingham that there was no exaggeration in the
notices we gave of the size of such as had been
sent to US. Like good christians, the people OF
Augusta are willing to be judged by their fruits.
