with a dull wye and seeks solitude; her eye no
longer sparklcsi her merry laugh Is no longer
heard ringing through the air; she mopes about
with bloodless lips and gums with headache,
palpdtation, constipation, swimming Of the head,
cold feet and hands, melonchely; she bas a
coated tongue, offensive breath. and host OF
other evils too numerous 10 mention.

Common Grog-shop Bitters.

Empty Bitters bottles, Of various STYLES, car
be found around almost every dwelling and
cabin throughout the land. Their taste /,
pleasant, and are Gdsertised tocure almost every
disease, while the manufacturers hnow they
possess no medical properties whatever. They
are so many DISCUSSES for exceedingly common
beverages which do not nor can possibly cure
any one.
Beware of these pleasant bittcrs in quert bot
ties, they contain a sting for your v%itals, and
he who buys them ~carriesa "toper's" grog into
his house. One man who knows nothing
abont medicine, says bis big bottles ofcommon
stuff will cure chills and fever, rheumatism
and consumption another, whose bot.lss are
very fancy, cures all impurities Of the blood
makes old men young, casts out devils, restores
sight to the blind, and numerous other mirac-
les; while yet another, who presrmes every
mar a drunkard, proposes to cure collie, in
growing nails, yellow fever, heart disease and
love-sick maidensll We know they make nc
such cures, we now the people at large are de-
ceived aud swindled, and as we desire to ven
tilate these common ~bumbugs, make the fellow
ing challenge to one and all.

Death is at the Door.

In all these complaints the system evidently
shows a want of red blood, and Mr.. Churchill,
in his work on Diseases Of Females, says
"Bcaringin mind that the blood is remarkably
deficient in red corpuscles, andthe known prop
erty Of iron to correct this condition, theory
suggests itas the most to he relied on, the best
OF which isthc Citrate Citrate of iron enters
largely into the composition Of English Female
B%tttcrs, combined with powerful vegetable tom
les OF rare gu 'lities.
Among the mountains of Tennessee and the
piny woods of Mississippi, is found a certain
hard and flinty root, which has been in secret
use by some old mid-wives for many years,
possessing magic powers in regulating aud re-
storing all females suffering with any affection
Of the womb. This root we have obtained,
gave it a fair trial in our practice and it is now
one Of the principal ingredients in these Bitters.
Other powerful and general TONES also enter
into its composition .. We also add Lcptandria
or Black Root, sufficient To act npon the liver
and keep the bowels open.

The following is from the Man
chester Gazette of the 18th inst {:
The farmers throughout this section
have about finished threshing out
the crop of wheat, and althoughthe
turnout has not been as great as
some Of our more sanguine people
have predicted, still the yield has
been very good. The corn crop
has had an abundance of rain and
warm sunshine and the yield will be
greater than we have had for years.
Apples and peaches are abundant
and everything points to a year Of
plenty.
