Probably never before in the whole history of
medicine has anything won so widely and SO deeply
upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent
lremedy for pulmonary complaints. Through long
series OF years, and among most of the races of
men it has risen higher and higher in their estma-
ton, as it has become better known. Its uniform
character and power to the various affections
of the lungs and throat, have made it known as re-
liable protector against them. While adapted to
nliltler forms of disease and to young children it is
at the time the most efectual remedy that can
be given for incipient consumption, and the dam
gerOus affections of the throat and lungs. As pro-
vision against sudden attacks of Group, it should
be kept hand in every family, and indeed as all
are sometimes subject to colds and coughs, all
should be provided with this antidote for them.
/ Although settled Consumption is thought in
durable, still great numbers of cases where the dis
I ease seemed settled, have been completely cured,
and the patient restored to sound health by the
Cherry Pect0r0t. So complete is its mastery
over the disorders Of the Lungs and Throat that
iilg else could reach them, under the Cherry Pee
f0TdE they subside and disappear.
Stngers and Public Speakers find great pro.
18th 1sthnsa is always relieved and often wholly
cured by It,
Bronchitis is generally cured by taking the
Cherry PectOr0E in small and frequent doses.
So generally are its virtues known that we need
not publish the certificates of them here, or do more
man assure the public that its qualities are fully
maintained, -nf asrt 81 .re III fg h...f

Content to let it stand on its merits,
ue have RETAINED from replying to the re-
sIly puerile and captious objections, which
have been made by several newspapers
u the Conservative Address, signed by
o,e hundred and thirty-odd citizens of
he State, residing in all its geographical
divisions, and representing more than
tr,o-thirds of the counties.
The charge Of "dictation," originating
1 Nh persons who were themselves urg-
\ plans of their own, and who had not
! cured a patent-right for the exclusive
|nivilege of addressing the people on
Eooics of public interest, did not seem to
merit notice, particularly as the parties
rbo made it did not eyince confidence
enough in the strength Of their assaults,
por fairness enough as controyersialists,
to publish the Address in order that their
readers might judge of its merits for
themselves.
At this late day, when the perfect in
yulnerability of the Address has been
demonstrated, its vindication would seem
10 be entirely supererogitive. Neverthe-
les. we cannot resist the temptation to
r.. produce an article on the subject from
the Natchez Democrat. Our cotempo-
rarv has done his work well.

Editor Clarion: Notice has been made to

been suggested That If the delegates should
not attend in person, they will be represent
ed by proxy.
The people of this region are anxious to
contribute their mite in support of the
strongest possible combination against the
Extremists, without reference to old politi-
cal divisions. We would avoid the condi-
ton of Alabama and Louisiana by following
the course of Virginia and Tennessee. An
entire conservative ticket friendly to the
Administration and opposed to military des-
potism, viii bring US Peace" and restore
our government to our own people. This
would not be accomplished If the old DOM
inant political party in the State were to run
a successful ticket in this canvass.
We cannot if we would, defy Congress-
1t is therefore worse than silly to agitate old
issues. To do so is to assist and strengthen
the Extremists. We know what they would
do if their power was prolonged by what
they are now doing, and what the have been
prevented from doing by the influence of
the Executive. If we make good conserv-
alive ticket the new element at home win
sustain it, and we need have no fears from
thesExecutive and Legislative departments
at Washington. In good faith we must come
back into our government as conservatives.
The people ought to be satisfied and we be-
lieve are satisfied with this mode. There is
no other door opened for restoration. Why
cavil about terms of compromise? We scorn
to be influenced by the s'ioaYes and fishes"
