Fever and Ague,

from which mankind suffer over a large part Of
the globe, is the consequence of diseased action
in the system, induced by the poisonous miasm Of
vegetable decay This cxhalation is evolved by
the action of solar heat wet soil. and rises with
the watery vnpor from il. While the sun is below
the horizon this vapor fingers near the earths sur
face, and the virus is taken With it through the
lungs into the bleod There it acts an irritating
poison on the internal yscera and excretng organs
OF tfe body. The liver becomes torpid and fails to
seeretc not only this virus, but also the bile from
the blood. Both the virus and the bile accumulate
in the circulation, and produce violent constu-
tional disorder. The spleen, the kidneys, and the
stomach sympathizc with the liver, and become
disordorod also. Finally, the instinct OF
ganisln, as if in an attempt to cXpcl .hc nONious
infusion, concentrates the whole blood Of the body
in the internal cXcrctores to force them TO cast It
out. The blood leaves the surface, and rushcs to
the central organs with congestive violence, This
is the Chill Bntin this eifortit fails. Then tho
FEVER follows, in which. the blood leaves the cen
trail organs and rushos to the surface, as if in
anotner effort 10 uSpei the irritating poison through
that other great excretory the skin. In this
also it fails, and the system abandons the attempt
exhausted and waits for the recovery Of strength
to repeat the hopeless effort another day. These
are the fits or paroXysms of FEVER AND AGUE.
Such constitutional disorder will of course under
mine the health If it is not removed.
We have labored to find, and have found, an
antidotc.

which neutralizes this malarious poison in the
blood and stimulates the liver to expe 1t from the
body AS 1t should, so it does cure this affecting
disorder with perfect certainty And it does more
or rather does what is ofmorc service to those sub
leet to this infection. If taken in season il cxpels
1t from the system as it is absorbed and thus kecrs
those who use it free from its attacks keeps the
system in health although exposed to the disease.
Consequently it not only cures, but protects from,
the great variety of affections which arc induced
by this malignant influence, such as Rcmttent
Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb. or Masked Aguc
Periodical Headache, or Bilious Headache Bilious
Fevers, Neuralgia, rheumatism, Gout Blindness,
Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpifa-
tions, Painful Affections of the Spleen, Hysterics
Collie, Paraly yss, and Painful Affections of the
Stomach and Bowels, all of which, when arising
from this cause, will be found to assume more or
less the intermittent type. This "AGuR CURB"
removes the cause Of these arrangements, and cures
tho disease.
This it accomplishes by stimulating the excrc-
torres to oxpel the virus from the system; and
these organs by degrees become habited to do this
their office of their own accord. Hence arises what
we term dcclimatGtiOn. Time may accomplish the
same end but often life is not long enough, or is
sacrificed in the attempt, while this " "AGUE CERB"
does it at once, and with safety. We have great
reason to believe this is surcr well ms safer
remedy for the whole class of diseases which are
caused by the miasmatic infection, than any other
which has been discovered; and il has still another
important advantage to the public, which is, that
it is cheap as we'll as good.

\ writer in the -Miltonian of last week
who signs himself manufacturer, who
probably was justly assessed by the mer-
camille appraiser as dealer, and anxious
to escape paying his license, very uu.ustly
attacks the mercantile appraiser, the county
Solicitor and county Treasurer. The law
in regard to the mercantile appraiser is
very explicit, and we cannot see how any
one can justly take exceptions to his con
duct. AS for the officers alluded to in Il
malicious manner that they construed the
law to suit their case is as unjust as it is
absurd, as the writer will find by reading
the law which almost any school boy would
readily comprehend in its intent. Although
we have had no business, aid have hut
slight acquaintance with the mercantile ap-
praiser, We believe that he endeavored to DO
his duty, and that he has succeeded far bet
ter than many Of his predecessors. AS to the
solicitor whr was asked his opinion of
the construction Of the law, We do not see
that he has any more interest in the matter
Than any other private citizen. But rs n
counsellor Of law, his opinion is entitled to
respect, and where he is known, it is use
iess"for Manufacturer" or any one else
10 cast reflections upon his integrity and
honesty. The fact that the Treasurer hay
ing conducted his Office in the most impair
tial and satisfactory manner, leaves no
room for doubt as to the performance of
his duty strictly according to law. If
manufacturer had been discreet enough
TO hide his malice, his communication
would perhaps, had some bearing. But
the spleen Which he exhibits in rejecting
on these officers, for what purpose we know
not, is too apparent and destroys the effect,
if intended for the benefit of the public
good.

THECHIEF JUsTICEsHrP.- The appoint
ment of n Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court of the United States to fill the vacan
cy created by the deceasc of Judge Chase
is subject which continues to excite con-
siderable discussion aud speculation. a
ready and fair solution of this most respon-
siblo duty devolving upon the President is
suggested by a gentleman of prominence
in the legal profession, it is tU permit the
Associate Justices to select their own Chief
This, it is considered, would relieve the
President Of the base intrigues Of designing
and incompetent aspirants for this high and
sacred Office. The highest judicial tribu-
nal, TO preserve the confidence of The peo-
pie, must certainly be filed with suitable
men, men of legal crudition and promi-
ncncc. To secure this it would seem that
political considerations should be Of secon-
Diary consideration. There is no question
of the fact that Curtis or Everts would
meet the approval of tho present members
Of tho supreme Bench and the bar of the
country. The President has stated that he
will allow the bar of the country to select
the successor of Chase. This plan meets
with general favor, provided it is carried
out in au impartial manner, but if the dis
reputable quacBs, who arc generally the
most active and shameless, lead IN the
matter the Court will bc likely to get any
thing but desirable Chief Justice.

THE CHof ERA. There is every indica.
ton that cholera will spread extensively
during this summer throughout the United
States. Europe is greatly excited on the
saSject. At Rome the people are panic
stricken by the presence ola fearful plague,
while in many parts of southern Europe,
the population is afflicted and distressed by
the same fear. In the United States both
yellow fever and the cholera have made
their appearance, and in localities which
prove that the disease was not brought
hithcr on ship board, but by atmospheric
conveyance, which renders it the moro
pdEjcizing. There are two protecting in-
GGcnccs in seasons of cpidemics, which
seldom if ever fail, namely, cleanliness and
quiet regular living aud steady habits.
These are great auxilliarics to mcdicai skill
when coitagion is on the wiBgs Of the
wind.
We notice that measures are being taken
in the cities aud nll large towns, to force
the authorities to remove every thing per-
tanning to uncleauliness, and purify their
place to arrest the progress Of this dreaded
disease. Our efficient Burgess few weeks
ago, gave notice to clean up the streets and
alleys in this town, which in many ill.,
stances has been neglected. His suggcs-
tions at that time, though regarded by
some as out Of place, may only too soon be
locked upon, as wise and prudent. We
hope that our borough fathers will not
hesitate in exercising their power to make
all the citizens pay attention to cleansing,
and removing all matter about their premi-
ses having a tendency to attract disease.
Every citizen should use all the sanitary
precautions to prevent epidemics getting
into our midst. This dreaded scourge is
now marching rapidly throughout the wee-
tern towns on its progress towards the east,
and no one can tell how soon it may make
its appearance in our towns and villages
in this section of the country.

LEPRosY IN SAN FRANCISCO. -Leprosy
has made so formidable appearance in San
Francisco that the people are beginning 10
be alarmed lest it should break out in the
form of an epidemic. A doctor, writing to
a San Francisco paper on the subject,
traces the origin of the disease to the ad-
vent of the Chinese. Three years ago the
presence of the disease was suspected, and
after a long search n native Californian Of
Indian blood was found sccreted in the city
afflicted with leprosy but now cases are
several at time. The doctor recommends
that vigorous measures should DC taken 70
establish quaratine to prevent the further
importation of the disease, and that the
board of health ferret out and contne in
hospital, which should be established for the
purpose, such cases as come to their notice
in the city.
