Great New England Remedy

WHITE PINE COMPOUND,
rs NOW OFFERED TO THE Az
u ffcted throughout the country, after
having been proved by the test of eleven
wears IN the New England States, where
its merits have become as well known as
the tree from which, in part, II derives its
virtues.
The White Pine Compound Cures
Sore THROAT, Colds. Coughs, Iipthe-
ria, Bronchitis, Splitting Of Blood,
and Pulmonary Affections generally.
1t as Remarkable Remedy for
Kidney Complaints, Diabetes, Dir
fculy Of Folding Urine, Bteeaing
from the Kidneys and Bidder,
GraUel and other complaints.
. In November. 1873, first advertised IL
under the name of White Pine Compound.
In two years from that time there had
been wholesaIed in Manchester alone one
hundred thousand dollars worth, where
it took the lead of all the cough remedies
in the market, and it sllll maintains that
position. There are good reasons for this;
Il is very soothing and healing in its ma
ture, is warming in the stomach and
pleasant withal to the taste, and Is ex-
ceediDg cheap.
White Pine Com pound stands unrivaled.
1t was not originated for that purpose; bat
person in using it for a cough was not
only cured of the cough, but was also
cured of a kfdneN difficulty OF ten years
standing. Since that accidental discovery,
many thousands have u ed it for the same
complaint, and have been completely
cured"
THE WHITE PINE COMPOUND.
sit was early in the spring of ~ that this
compound was originated. A member OF
my family was afflicted with an irritation
the throat attended wit n q diSa Uf6Pahla
cough. l had for some months previous
thought that preparation having for It's
basis the inside bark of White Pine might
be so compounded as to be very useful in
diseases OF the Throat and Lungs. To test
the value of it in the case alluded to, /
compounded small quantity OF the med1-
cine that had been planning, and gave it
in teaspoonful doses The result was ex-
ceedingly gratifying. Within two days,
the irritation OF the throat was removed,
the cough subsidized, and a speedy cure was
effected.
The above was written by DR.. Poland il
1860 Since then, as in Manchester, tn.
White Pine Compound has taken the lea
OF all cough remedies, as well as prepare
lions for the cure of kidney difficulties. i

The BANKRUPT Inv,

The bankrupt bill which passed both Houses of
the Thirty-ninth Congress, and is now law, is
one of the most important measures disposed of
during the session just closed. The law is gen
eral throughout the country, and supercedes all
State insolvent laws, stay-laws, and laws of i'm
prisonment for debt. The necessity for such
law has been recognized in the Legislatures of
every State Of the Union. All the States have in
solvent or bankrupt laws, and occasionally they
have stay-law other measures for the relief of
debtors. But this law, while it accomplishes the
former object, also provides for the security of
creditors, and affords facilities for settlement
between an insolvent and his creditors without
any appeal to legal measures. An opportunity
for trouble made by few obstinate creditors, on
the one hand, or q hard-headed debtor on the
other, will be removed. The debtor cannot die.
tate terms, nor delay beyond reason the distribu-
tion of his assets, and single creditor cannot
prevent release by refusing to sign unless he re
ceives an unequal share of the estate. This will
smooth the way to greater frankness on the part
of the failing debtor and to more forbearance and
leniency, where those are appropriate, from those
to whom he is bound. As permanent and uni
versal measure of relief in this country, where
shocks in the mercantile world, causing financial
embarrassments, are of periodical occurrence,
paralyzing enterpris, and prostrating industry,
and where the laws enacted by the States have
been of the most diverse and sometimes partial
character, this law will be hailed as wise and
beneficial MEASURE particularly at this time when
the contingencies of the late war have wrecked SO

Reconstruction.

= The Judiciary Committee of the House,
in accordance with instructions previously
moved by Mr.. Kelly, reported bill on the
18th to facilitate the reconstruction Of the
rebel States. The bill, which at once passed
the House by III to 27, provides that all
elections shall be by ballot; that the Gener
al commanding shall cause thorough reg
istration to be made of voters, and majori-
ty of the registered voters is required to rat
ify the Constitution to be adopted by the
Convention.
We are glad to observe that the General is
not to be allowed to delegate any of his
power to the acting rebel Governors of the
States We agree with Mr.. Sumner that
these rebel Governors ought to be dropped
through as soon. as possible. They are an
incubus and an eye-sore to the loyal people
of the rebel States 1t is hard, for exam
pie, that the loyal people of this State should
be required even to tolerate Jonathan Worth,
who, in his message, pronounced the Con-
greSS aH uiColsIitu1ioiai Douy, anu
gravely proposed to distribute the colored
people of this State throughout the United
States; or that the loyalists of Mississippi
should be afflicted with Gov. Humphreys,
who was hardly warm in his seat before he
spoke of the presence of the national troops
in Mississippias a blighting curse" " to that
State. But we suppose that we must bepa-
tient, since it is certain that in due time
these rebel Governors, with the meshes of
treason that surround them, will be ripped
up by the roots and cast into the sewers of
| contempt and oblivion.
1t is stated that the Senate has determined
in caucus to postpone action on adjournment
until the supplemental reconstruction bill
becomes law. We may, therefore, take it
for granted that it will be the duty and
privilege of our people to re-organize the
State under law of Congress specially
passed for the purpose. This fact, however,
does not do away with the propriety or ne
cessity of the meeting in this City on the
9th. 1t is every way important that the
| Unionists should meet for consultation, to
perfect their organization, and arrange their
plans for the futurel
|
