The Tribune, in referring to the po-
litical situation in New York, says;
The Democrats are welcome to their
hopes and their boasts. The only qneS-
ticn which Republicans find 1t necessary
TO consider is whether they can gonl-
nate a candidate who can poll their full
vote in this State. If they can they Will
carry the State, whether it bs this year
or next year, against Democrats snitsd
or Democrats divided. II the Demo
Gratis please to disagree, SO That the
work OF the Republicans shall be easier
and the result more certain, very well
but they need not expect a majority In
The State against full Republican vote
even if they concentrate upon enc can
didate every New Yorker who ever call
ed himself Democrat. A full and uni
ted Republican vote means Democrat
ic defeat, whether the Democrats vote
for one man or for fifty.

"7S E. 54th ST., NeiC York. Nay 16 1852.
MEsSRS. j. G.. AVER & Co., Gentlemen:
Last winter was troubled with most uncOn-
Portable itching humor affecting more especially
my limbs, which itched so intolerably at night,
and burned so intensely that could scarcely bear
any clothing over them. l was also a sufferer
from severe catarrh and catarrhal cough; my
appetite was poor, and my system good deal run
down. Knowing the value of AYERS SARsAPA-
RILLA, by observation of many other cases, and
from personal use in former years, began taking
il for the above-named disorders. My appetite
improved almost from the first dose. After
short time tho fever and itching were alayed, and
all signs of irritation of the skin disappeared. My
cataTrh and cough were also cured by the same
MEANS and my general health greatly improved,
until it is now excellent. / feel hundred per
cent stronger and attribute these results to tho
use of the SARsAPARILLA, which l recommend
with all confidence rs the best blood medicine
ever devised. / took It in small doses three
times day. and used in all, less than two bottles.
i place these facts at your service, hoping their
publication may do good.
Yours respectfully, 2. P. W1LDs."
The above instance is but one of the many con-
stanty coming to our notice, which prove the per-
feet adaptability of AYERS SARsAPARTLLA to
the of all diseases arising from impure or i'm
poverished blood, and weakened vitality.
