Ayers Ague Cure,

For Fever and Ague, Intermittent
Fever, Chill Fever, Remittent Fever,
Dumb Ague, Periodical or Bilious Fever,
&C., and indeed all the affections which
arise from malarious, marsh, or mias-
matte poisons.
This is compound remedy, prepared with
scientific skill from vegetable ingredients, which
rarely fails to cure the severest cases of Chiils
and Fever and the concomitant disorders. Such
n remedy the necessities of the people in maari-
Gus districts demand. Its great superiority over
any other medicine yet discovered for the cure
of Intermittents is, that it contains quinine
mineral, and those who take it are free from
danger of quinism or any injurious effects, and
are as healthy after using it as before. 1t has
been extensively employed during the last thirty
years in the treatment of these distressing dis
orders, and SO unvarying has been its success
that it has gained the reputation of being infalli
BILE. 1t can, be safely recommended as n sure
remedy and specific for the Fever and Ague of
the West, and the Chills and Fever of the
South, which, once broken up by it, do not
return until the disease is again contracted.
The great variety of disorders which arise
from the irritation of this poison, such as Neu-
ra1gia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache,
Blindness, Toothache, Earache, Ca.
tarrh. Asthma, Palpitation, SpIenic
Affections, Mysteries, Pain i'm the Bow
els, Collie, Paralysis, and arrangement of
the stomach, all Of which become intermittent
or periodical, have no speedier remedy than
AYERS AGUE CURE, which cures them all alike,
and protects the system from future attacks. As
a preventive, it is of immense service In those
communities where Fever and Ague prevails
it stays the development of the disease If taken
on the first approach Of the premonitory symp-
toms. Travellers and temporary residents are
thus enabled to defy these disorders, and few
will ever suffer If they avail themselves Of the
protection this remedy affords.
For Liver Complaints, arising from
torpidity, it is an excellent remedy; it stimulates
this organ into, healthy activity, and produces
many remarkable cures where other medicines
fail.

The Plague In Asia.

The British Medical Journalpub
fishes the following recent informa-
ton;
The plague is still increasing at
Hillah and Bagdad, though it
has not up to the present, ap-
parently, spread to any other town.
The following are the latest official
returns: At Hillah, from the goth
to the Goth Of March, seventy-six
persons were attacked, and there
were thirty-four deaths. The great
est number of cases in one day at
Hillah was registered on the 2Gth,
when twenty persons were attacked,
and the greatest number Of deaths
occurred on the 23d, when twelve
persons died. At Bagdad, from the
Dist to the 27th Of March, inclusive,
there were one hundred and ten
cases and forty-fve deaths; the
maximum Of cases thirty was at
tanned on the Goth, and the maxi
mum of deaths (ten per day. on the
23d and 9th ult. April 12.-
The latest telegrams to the Con
stantinople sanitary board indicate
an increase in the number Of plague
cases in Mesopotamia as well as
an extention Of the area infected,
The following are the returns: Al
Hillah, in the space of five days
from the 9th to the 31st of March
inclusive), there were sixty-six new

hundred and forty-five new cases
and seventy-fye deaths. The plague
in that city has now crossed from
the right bank of the Tigris to thC
left bank, which had been previ
ously free from the contagion. The
epidemic had likewise made its ap
pearance at Meshed or Nedjef Ali
where, from the 25th to the goth o
March, there occurred five fata
cases, and also at Kutet-Hamra. a
