A CARD TO THE AMERICAN Public
For many years we have made two med
lcnes suited to the ailments of a vast class
OF sufferers. Thousands of cures have
been made by them, and, in fact, the word
failure could never he coupled with them
But within the last two years counterfeits
OF our medicines have sprung up, danger
onS IN their close imitation of our Trade
Mark. 10 secure the people we have
placed upon each genuine box of Holloway's
Pills and Holloways Ointment the fac
smile of the signature of our Agent, Mr.. |
Jos. l1aydock. To counterfeit this is felony.
We shall lelentlessly pursue any one who |
initiates this with the utmost vigor of the |
law. We most earnestly beg that the |
great mass of the American people will |
aid us in our efforts to protect their health, |
and help US in our task of bringing these |
most unprincipled men to the bar of |
Justice. Uniformly refuse to purchase
Medicines purporting to be ours unless Mr.. |
Jos. Haydock's signature is attached to
Zach Box of Pills or Pot of Ointment and
-he end will soon be reached

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
'.IF. -

eff lived in Rising Sun, Maryland,
would be tired of travelling menageries and
clrcuses and such clap-trap, which post
huge bills to entice, and furnish so little to
amuse, nothing to instruct, but furnish the
! opportunity for SO much rum drinking, SO
much lighting: and, worse of all, when
everybody cries 'hard times and no money
they come around and bag cool thousand
in cash, and benefit-who?
If lived there, | would be tired of
seeing drunken fights in the streets on
almost all occasions of any assemblare.
and see the roughS and rowdes, full of
beer, cursing the God who made them in
lOudest tones and bid defiance to all law
and authority, proclaim their supremacy
over all decency and turn night into helish
Jubllees, and drive sleep from the homes of
all decent people who happen to reside
within no short distance of their scenes of
action.
IF" lived there I would be tired of
the knowledge that officers of State, who
are the sentinels Of the public peace, let
criminals pass to and fro before their eyes
and touch them not, while they hold in
their pocket a warrant for their arrest.
This proceeding has often been duplicated.

She was in Elkton month ago, visiting

AS the hour approached, being appraised
of deaths nearneSs, she manifested IA holy

heart to her Saviour's keeping. In that
Savior she put a perfect trust, and was sc
happy in the thought that she should soon
lie at his feet.
