to the Senate might have been overlooked,
but some of the party organs insinuate, in
a cold-blooded way, that his defeat is not
detrimental to the country" Alas for

TREATMENT OF SMALLPcx. = A
great discovery is said to have been
recently made by "a surgeon of the
British army in China in the way OF
an cffectuaI remedy for smallpox
The mode of treatment is as follows
When the preceding fever is at its
height, and just before the eruption
appears, the chest is rubbed with Gro
tor oil and tartaric ointment. This
causes the whole of the eruption tc
appear on that part of the body, to
the reliet of the rest 1t also secures
a full and complete eruption, and thus
prevents the disease from attacking
the internal organs. This is now the
established mode of treatment in the
English army in China, and is regard
ed as aperfect cure.

Ayers Cherry Pectoral,
For Diseases Of the Throat and ;Lungs,i
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping'
e Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
o,,5 pti0n .

. and Consumption. l,5..s
Probably never before in the whole history oS
medicine, has any thing won so widely and 90
deeply upon the confidence Of mankind, as this
excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints,-
Through q long series of years, and among most
of the races Of men it has risen higher and higher
In their estimation, it 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 chectual remedy that can be given for inctp-
lent consun' ptGn, and the dangerous affections
Of the throat and lungs. AS n provision against
sudden attacks OF Group. 1t should be kept on
hand in every family, and indeed as all are sOme-
times subject to colds aud coughs, all should be-
provided with this antidote for them. .,
Although settled Consumption Is thought In
cllrable, still great numbers of cases where the
disease seemed settled, have been completely
cured, and the patient restored to sound health
by the Cherry Pectordt. So complete is Its
mastery over the disord1 Of the Lungs and
Throat that the mos. obstinate Of them yield to it.
When nothing else could reach them, under the
Cherry Pectoral they subsde and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers find great
protection from it.
4Asth,na is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
bronchitis is generally cured by taking the
Che,Ty Pcct0ral 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
nrc fully maintained.
