which were aggravated by the scrofulous con-
taminaton until they were painfully affecting,
have been radically cured III such great num-
bers in almest every section of the country
that the public scarcely need to be informed of
its virtues uses.
Scrofulous poison is one of the most destruc-
tive enemies of our race. Often this unseen
and unfelt tenant ofthe organism undermines
the constitution, and invites the attack of en-
feeblng CT fatal diseases, without exciting q
suspicion OF its presence. Again, 1T seems to
breed infection throughout the body and then,
on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop
into one or other of its hideous forms, either
on the surface or among the vitals. In the
latter, tuberces may be suddenly deposited in
the lungs or heart, or tumors formed in tho
liver, or it shows it's presence by eruptions on
the skin. or foul alterations on some part of
the body. Hence the occasional use of bottle
of this SARSAPARILLA is advisable, even
when no active symptoms of disease appear.
Persons afflicted with the following complaints
generally find immediate relief, and at length
cure, by the use of this sSARSAPARILLA: SA 81.
Anthony's Fire, Rose or Eysipelds, letter, SAT-
Rheun, .ScdM Head, Ring,cO,n, Sore Eyes,
Sore Ears and other eruptons or visible forms
OF ScrotulOuS disease. Also, in the more con-
cealed forms. as Dyspepsia, Dropsy, Heart Dis
ease, Fits, Epilepsy, Neuralgia and the various
Uicerous affections of the muscular and nerv-
Gus stems.
Syphilis or Venereai and Merc,uial Diseases
are cured by it, though q long time is required
for subduing these obstinate malades by any
medicine. But long continued use of this me-
dicine will cure the complaint. LeucorrhGd or
Whites, Uterine UlcerationS, and Female Dis
eases, are commonly soon. relieved and ulti-
nlately cured by it's purifying and invigorating
effect. Minute directions in each case are found
in our Almanac, supplied gratis. RhenmdtiSm
and G0ut, when caused by accumuations of
extraneous matters in the blood, yield quickly
to it, as also Lirer Complaints, IorpioiHy, Con-
gestiOn or Inflammation of the Lire,' and Jun
dice. when arising, as they often do, from the
rinkling poisons in the blood. This SA RSA-
IARILLA is n great restorer for the strength
and vigor of the system. Those who Lam
troubled with Ne,rouS ApprehenSions or Fears,
any of the affections symptomatic of Weak
iless, will find immediate relief and convincing
'vidence of its restorative power upon trial.

Have such i'm CUR Midst ?

EDITOR LEDGER: Why is it that Shy
lock, Hamlet, Iago Banquo and Mac
beth, mere creatures of Shakespeare
fancy-the mere creations of bis brain
have bacome associated in the current
thoughts aud ideas Of the civilized world
as living, breathing, human beings Of real
flesh and blood 2 The answer is simply
because the pictures are so true to life
that we meet their counter parts con-
stantly at almost every turn in the lane
of life. Bat Shakespeare is not the only
author who has furnished the world with
the children Of his brain as veriiable
beings. Judge Longstreei, late Of Georgia
and now of Mississippi, has done the
same thing. Que Ramsey Sniffls, who
ia represented al denizen of one oil
the Villages in the Empire State Of
the South, having mind to see
some fun, began BY running from
Jones to Brown and from Brown to Jones,
aud detailing to each what the other said,
ended by bringing on fight between two
neighbors who were friends, aud ought to
have remained so for life. The result Of
this was q iifsiipe misfortune to two
worthy families in the shape Of crippled
husbands aud fathers, and deadly en-
nifty to the end of life among those who
should and would hpt for Ramsey have
been friends all their lifetimp. Memphis
has her Ramsey Snifiss, one OF whom
figured Ia the late dispute in this city be
tween an editor and Wor by citizen,
which nothing but the manly prudence
Of the former prevented from ending
iu al probability, in plunging two worthy
families into gloom and mourning.
Verify, such Ramsey Sn files are curse
to every community where found. q
