Ayers Cherry PectoraI,
For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,
IN such al Coughs, Colds, Whooping
= 3 70 Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and nOnaumption


Probably never before IN the whole history Of
medicine, has any thing won so widely and SO
deeply upon the confidence Of mankind, as this
excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints.
Through a long series of wears, and among most
of the races of men 1t has risen higher and higher
In their estimation, asit has become better known.
Its uniform character and power to cure the va
riOus affections of the lungs and throat, have
made it known as q reliable protector against
them. While adapted to milder forms of disease
and to young children, 1t Is at the same time the
most ~eilectual remedy that can be given for incip-
lent consumption and the dangerous affections
of the throat and lungs, AS n provision against
sudden attacks Of Group, II should be kept on
hand in every family, and indeed as all are some
times subject to colds and coughs, all should BIZ
provided with this antidOte for them.
Although settled Consumption Is thought in
durable, Still great numbers of cases where the
disease seemed settled, have been completely
cured, and the patient restored to sound health
by the Cherry PICTORIAL. SO complete is its
mastery over the disorders of the Lungs and
Throat, that the most obstinate Of then, yield to II.
When nothing else could reach them, under the
Cherry PectOrdl they subside and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers find great
protection from IL.
Asthma is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
Bronchitis Is generally cured by taking the
Cherry PecfOrdI in small and frequent doses.
So generally are its virtues known, that We
need not publish the certificates Of them here, or
do more than assure the public that its qualities
are fully maintained.

Hon, JouN w. JOHNSTON, Uuited States

Hon. JonN w. JOHNSTON, Uuited States
Senator from Virginia, has favored many
of his constituents with copies of his Imam
cal efforts, to effect, as the heading has it,
"Repeal of the Internal Revenue System
Reduction of the Tobacco Tax-State
Rights" The occasion and intent, Of his
speech was offering and advocating sub
stitute for the bill abolishing income tax,
which substitute reads :-"That all acts
and parts of acts establishing the depart
ment of internal revenue, and providing
for the collection of internal taxes, be, and
the same are hereby repealed, except so
much thereof as provides for the issue and
sale of stamps upon writings" Section
. simply provides that "such stamps shall
be kept for sale by all deputy postmasters,
and that this act shall take effect on the
first day of July, 1871"
There is sublime simplicity about this
substitute, which induced us to look over
the arguments adduced in its favor but
careful study only developed the fact that
the substitute was peg upon which to
hang TRADE of financial crudities and
absurdities. We concur with the astute
Senator, that T" no one claims it 1.-THE inter-
nal revenue system) is good thing in
itself, or desires to retain it one moment
longer than necessary" We concur
further, it grew out of the war, as did
many other evils but with the burden of
an enormous debt, inflicted upon us by the
political friends of the Hon. Senator in
their wicked attempt to destroy the life of
the nation, we are compelled to join issue
with him in his further remark, " Now let
it expire with the restoration of the Union
and the return of peace" until he can show
us more clearly that the public faith can
be kept under his substitute, without
imposing more intolerable burdens on
other and less legitimate subjects of taxa
ton.
The special grievance which he parades
as the reason why his plan should be
adopted is that Virginia stands the eighth
State 10 amount of internal revenue taxes
for 1870, and is placed sixth in estimate
for 1871. Adam Smith is quoted in sup
port OF the well-known proposition, that
taxes sought not to be merely to raise 50
much money every year, but it ought to
be raised without injury to any great in
telest"
Let us examine the sources of revenue
in Virginia during 1870, and ascertain il
the burden, which even Mr.. job nston
admits must be borne, can be laid upon
any other basis with so little injury to any
1roat in

Looking over these returns we find that
excise taxes, exclusively levied on spirits,
fermcnted liquors, and tobacco, constitute
nearly one-third of the total. The loom,
the anvil, and the plough, are left free to
create or manufacture necessaries, while
surplus capital and commerce arc put
under contribution Yet this new light in
finance, points to Great Britain as his
model, while he urges taxation OF neces-
saries and industry in this form "Massa-
chusetts is great manufacturing State. %
Now, the cotton Massachusetts, converts
into bad calico is the product of the South
ern States; the wool is the product of
Vermont and other Northern States Vir-
ginia raises tobacco on her own soil. Why
should the Virginia article be incumbered
with a tax amounting to more than its
value, and the Massachusetts articles pro.
tected 2" Passing by this fling at " bad
calico" which shows that Mr.. John toms
spleen, and not reason or information, gov
erns his argument, we will ask him Does
the manufacturer of calico at Petersburg,
Richmond or Augusta, or any other place,
pay any tax upon his productions or in
vestment which the manufacturer in
Massachusetts does not or does the
manufacturer of tobacco in New York
or Louisville, pay any less tax
upon what he manufactures, than the same
article pays at Richmond There is, as
he well knows, entire equality of taxation
and exemption and sound policy as well
as sound philanthropy suggest, that as
shirt upon the back is a necessity, while
the quid of tobacco in the mouth is rather
a disadvantage, and certainly not neces-
sity, the taxation of tobacco is right,
and the exemption OF even bad calico is
also right. There is no tax upon leaf
tobacco, or upon manufactured tobacco
exported abroad while his model, Great
Britain, taxes the former heavily and
the latter oppressively, and so largely in
above quoted. Great Britain. as well as
the United States, by their financial sys-
tens, answer fully Mr.. Johnston's puerile
query: "Where is the propriety or justice
of exempting the manufacture of one
native product from taxation, and taxing
another 2" And we recon- mend him to
study cotcmporaneous financial statistics,
before he again essays to reform what it
is clearly apparent he does not understand.
If he really desires to benefit the tobacco
interest, he has utterly mistaken the mode,
if bis substitute is the plan he proposes
and he only Injuries his cause by such
argument as he gives u.s. "a plague on
such backing"-will say every tobacco
manufacturer who looks beneath the froth
on the surface Of the speech of Mr. John
ston.
