they swept the field. Why is it j.? Can it be

The Supreme Court Of the United States has

parties can be allowed to dispose of the profits.
The Court holds the Centennial stockholders
strictly to the letter and spirit OF the act of
Congress appropriating the sum as loan and
not as a git. The explicit understanding
without which the bill could never have been
passed-was that the United States should be

Ayers Ague Cure,

Ous, uarSu, OF mlaSmatlc pOlSonS.
This is compound remedy, prepared with
scientific skill from vegetable ingredients, which
rarely fails to cure the scverest cases of Chills
and Fever and the concomitant disorders. Such
remedy the necessities ofthc people in mala-
rlous districts demand. Its great superiority
over any other medicine undiscovered for the
cure Of Intermittents is, that it contains no qui.
nine or 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. II
has been extensively employed during the last
thirty years IN the treatment Of these distressing
disorders, and so unvarying has been its success
that uhas gained the reputation of being nfal-
lible. 10 can, therefore, be safely recommended
IS q sure remedy and specific for the Fever and
Ague Of the West, and the Chills and Fever Of
the South. IL counteracts the miasmatic poison
in the blood, and frees the system from its inllu-
once, so that fever and ague, shakes or chills,
once broken up by it, do not return until the
disease is again contracted.
The greatvariety Of disorders which arise from
the irritation of this poison, such as Neuralgia,
rheumatism, Gout, Headache, Blindness,
Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Pal
pitation, Splenic Affections, Mysteries, Pain
in the Bowels, Collie, Paralysis, and derangc-
Of the Stomach, all of which become ntermit
tent or periodical, have no spcedier remedy than
AYERS AGUE CURE. which cures them all alike
andprotccts the system from future attacks. As
4 preventive, it is Of immense service in those
communities where Fever and Aguc prevails, IS
q stays the development of the disease If taken
on the 1rst approach ofthe premontory symp-
toms. Travellers and temporaryrcsidents are
thus enabled to defy these disorders, and few
viii ever suffer if they avail themselves of the
protection this remedy affords.
For Liver Complaints, arising from torpidity,
1t is an excellent remedy; it stimulates this organ
into healthy activity, and produces many remark
able cures where other medicines fail.
