their most charming and delightful entertain

The ladies and gentlemen of that place and vi
cinity should not fail to attend, for we assure
them that they will be more than compensated,
and will enjoy themselves better than they have
for some time The music by the bells and the
crystal chimes, to say nothing of the charming
music of the silver cornet band. by females, is
wonderful and delightful and then the character
songs and remarkable impersonations of differ
ent characters by the inimltable imtator, the dis

and tickle even the ribs of Death.

IERS.
From Editor of Norfolk Herald
''This is the season which these celebrated Bit
ters mostly sought after, and possessing as
they do world wide lame, it is hardly necessa-
ry to impress upon the mind of the invalid their
inestimable virtues. We have, in our social in
tercOurse, heard but one expression in their ia
vor, and that is, whenever used they act like
charm, and prove more efficacious than any
medicine that has ever been offered to the pub
lie. The maker of these Bitters uses no highly
wrought panegyrcs or flaming hand-bills to fur
thar the sale of his Bitters, but simply throwing
the article on its own merits, to be judged accor-
dinghy. He does not, like all the quack stuff
now in use, say that it will cure all the ills
mon to humanity; but he stakes his reputation
that whenever taken according to directions it
will cure Ague and Fever, Dyspepsia, Bowel
Complaint, Cholera Morbus, Indigestion Sour
Stomach, Loss of Appetite, and all diseases
arising from torpidity OF the Liver and inaction
of the digestive organs. Their equal is yet to be
had.
