Ayers Ague Cure,
.1;:8

For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever,
or Bous Fever &c. and indeed
all the affections which arise from malari-
Gus, marsh, or miasmatic poisons.
This is compound remedy, prepared with
scientific skill from vegetable ingredients, which
rarely fails to cure the severest cases OF Chills
and Fever and the concomitant disorders. Such
a remedy the necessities of the people In mala-
rious districts demand. Its greatsuperiority
over any other medicine yet discovered for the
cure of Intermittents is, that it contains no quiz
nine or mineral, and those who take 1t are free
from danger Of quinism or any injurious effects,
and are as healthy after using II as before. IL
has been extensively employed during the last
thirty years in the treatment Of these distressing
disorders, and so unyarying has been its success
that ithas gained the reputation OF being infai-
lible 1t can, therefore, be safely recommended
as sure remedy and specific for the Fever and
Ague Of the West, and the Chills and Fever Of
the South. 1t counteracts the miasmatic poison
in the blood, and frees the system from its infu-
ence, SO that fever and ague, shakes or chilis,
once broken up by IL, do not return until inc
disease Is again contracted.
The great variety Of disorders which arise nom
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 derange-
of the Stomach, all Of which become intermt-
tent 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 Aguc prevails, as
it stays the development of the disease If taken
the drst approach oft premonitory symp-
toms. Travellers and temporary residents are
thus enabled to defy these disorders, and few
will ever suffer If they avail themselves OF tho
protection this remedy affords.
For Liver Complaints, arising from torpiditys
1t is an excellent remedy; it stimulates this organ
into healthy activity, and produces many remark
able cures where other medicines fail.

three four.hs Interest in this we'll known
steamer. The estimated value of the
Marine, upon which the purchase was
made, was $4,000. A few years ago she
was sold for 100000. This would show
that vessel property has suffered heavy

times, within the past few years.
