tried it, know that it cured them; those who have
not, know that it cures their neighbOrs and friends
and all know that what it does once it does always
that it never fails through any fault neglect OF
its composition. We have, and can show, thou
sands upon thousands of certificates of remarka-
bic cures OF the following complaints, but such
cures are known in every neighbOrhoOd, and why
should we publish them? Adapted to all ages and
conditions In all climates; containing neither Gallo
mel or any deleterous drug, they may be taken
with safety by anybody. Their sugar coating pre-
serves them ever fresh and makes them pleasant to
take, while being purely vegetable no harm can
arise from their use IN any quantity.
They operate by their powerful influence on the
internal Viscera to purify the blood and stimulate it
into healthy action the distractions of the
stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs of the
body restoring their irregular action to health, and
by correcting, wherever they exist, such derange-
ments as are the first origin of disease.
Minute directions are given in the wrapper on
the box, for the following complaints, which these
PiUs rapidly cure

should be taken moderately to stimulate the stom-

dciously taken for each to correct the diseased
action or remove the distractions which cause it.
For Dysentery H3iarrh0ea, but one mild
For iRheumatism, Cont, Gravel, Palpi-
fariOn of the Heart, Pain in the side,
Back and LOins, they should be continuously
taken, required, to change the diseased action of
the system With such change those complaints
disappear
For DrOpsy and DrOpsical Swellings they
should be taken in large and frequent doses to pro-
duce the effect of drastic purge.
For Suppression large dose should be taken
as it produces the desired effect by sympathy.
AS a Dinner Pill, take one or two Pills to pro-
mote digestion and relieve the stomach.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels into healthy action, restores the appetite,
and invigorates the system. Hence 1t is often adj
vantageOus where no serious arrangement exists
One who feels tOleraby WE'LL often finds that dose
of these Pills makes him feel decidedly better from
their cleansing and renOVatlng effect on the dSeS

a purgative is required, which we cannot enumer-
here but they suggest themselves to every body,
and where the virtues of this PHI are known, the
public no longer doubt what to employ.

mitting the act to the vote of Newbern for
approval or disapproval. Adopted.
Mr.. Brogden opposed the bill.
Mr.. Sweet advocated it, as refecting the
wishes of his constituents. In its present
form it had no enemies, and he was at a
loss to account for the zeal manifested by
Mr.. Brogden against it. Mr.. S. was al
most ready to doubt his right as Senator
on this floor, since the Senator from Wayne
had come forward to represent his, Mr.. s. e
constituents.
Mr.. Osborne argued against any legisla-
tive interference with the government ol
Newbern.
Mr.. Respass could see nothing unfair in
the proposition. The representative from
Craven had a right to know of the wishes
of his constituents and he Mr.. Respass,
did not think it wrong to let corporations
know that when in that corporate capacity,
they were not out of the reach of the LIE
gislature. if they propose to act in contra.
diction to the will Of the people. He held
that the will of the people was the law ;
he should, therefore, vote for the bill.
Mr.. Welker held, that if the Councilmen
had, or were about to act improperly, the
city had remedy at law, &c. and with the
information before him, he considered the
bill Questionable.
Mr. Sweet, in reply, went somewhat in
detail of the causes of the strife which ex
listed in Newbern.
Mr.. Love held similar views to those
expressed by Mr.. Welker.
