From the ungentlemanly and con-
e mptible manner in which l was at
tackled In last weeks "Register," 1
have a right to infer that it came from
the hand of a cowardly assassination of
character. The doublentander, the base
insiruations, the vile misrepresenta-

that disappointed genius cheated of
fame will seek notoriety. They must
have been exercised in their little
brains to great extent to cast asper-
sions, and yet leave enough of a loop
hole to wiggle through in case Of a le-
gal prosecution. There Is scarcely any
doubt in my mind but that if you would
follow the string through behind the
scenes, you would find holding up the
other end and wishing to father the ar

AYERS
Cherry Pectoral.

No other complaints are SO insidious in their
attack as those affecting the throat and lungs:
none so trifed with by the majority of suffer-
ers. The ordinary cough or cold, resulting
perhaps from a trifling or unconscious ex-
posure, is often but the beginning of a fatal
sickness. AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL has
well proven its efficacy in a forty years fight
with throat and lung diseases, and should be
taken in all cases without delay.
A Terrible Cough Cured.
"In 1851 1 took a severe cold, which affected
my lungs. 1 had a terrible cough, and passed
night after night without sleep. The doctors
gave ME up. l tried AYERS CHERRY Pee
ToRAL which relieved my lungs, induced
sleep, and afforded me the rest necessary
continued use of the PICTORIAL q perma-
nent cure was effected. 1 am now 62 years
old, hale and hearty, and am satisfied your

Croup.-A Mothers Tribute.
"While in the country last winter my little
boy, three years old, was taken i'll with croup;
it seemed as if he would die from strangu-
lation. One of the family suggested the use
of AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL, a bottle of
which was always kept in the house. This
was tried in small and frequent doses, and
to our delight in less than half an hour the
little patient was breathing easily. The doc
tor said that the CHERRY PICTORIAL had
saved my darling's life. Can you wonder at
our gratitude? Sincerely yours,
Mrs. EMMA GEDNEY.'

against epitbets, when he might well have
taken the advise to himself. The prisoners

the prisoners themselves. To attempt to
assail the hearts of the Jury by tears and
provoking pathos was an ingenious device.

they could make no sound, logical
argument. What had tears to DO with the
scales of justiceP Cast them out; they were
temptations held to beckon on to infamy
aud disgrace; those scales must contain
nothing but cold and naked facts and the
rules OF law as given by the court; 1t was
true there was no spectacle more solemn
than human being wrecked or 0lackened
at home, but what wrecked them? Not the
verdict of jury, but the commission OF the
crime; by verdict speaking

judgment the jury would commit
crime and give their consciences ceaseless
