The annual election for Members of Congress and State Legislature,touk place ►n Virginia on Thursday last. This State, like Pennsylvania, was most outrageously Gerrymandered by the apportionment bill passed by the locus last winter, and from this cause the Whigs will probably lose several members of Congress.

CURE OF A CANCEROUS SOB E. SING SING. January 21, 1843. DR. BENJAMIN BR ANDRETII HOD or'd Sir,— Owing to yuu a debt of gratitude that mo ney cannot pay. I am induced to make a public acknowledgement of the benefit thy wife has derived trom your invaluable Pills. About three years this winter she was taken with a pain in her uncle, which soon became very much inflamed, and swollen, so mach so that we became much Martha, and Sent for the doctor. During his attendance the pain and swelling increased to an alarming degree, and in three weeks front its first commencing it became a running sore. She could get no rest at night the pain was so great. Our first doctor attended her fur six months, and she received no benefit what ever, the pain growing worse and the sore larger all the time. He said if it was healed up it would be her death, but lie appeared to he at a loss how to proceed, and my poor wife still continued to suffer the most terrible tortures. We therefore sought other aid, in a Botannieal doctor, who said when he first saw it that he could soon cure the sore and give her ease at once. To our surprise he gave her no relief, and acknowledged that it quite baffled all his si,ill. 'Thus we felt atter having trii d during one whole year the experience of two celebrated physicions in vain, in absolute despair. My poor wife's constitution rapidly failing iu the prime of her years from her continued suffering. Under these circumstances we concluded that we would try your Universal Vegetable Pills, determined to fairly test their curative effects. To my wife's great comfort the first few doses afforded great re lief of the pain. Within one week to the astonishment of ourselves and every one who knew the case, the swelling and the Ma mation began to cease so that she felt quite easy, and would sleep comfortable, and sir. after six weeks' use she was able to go then' the house and again attend to the manage ment of her family, which site had not done for nearly fourteen months. In a little over two months front the time she first commen ced the use of your invaluable Pills her ancle was quite sound, and her health better than it had been in quite a number of years be , fore. 1 send you this ttatement atter two • fayears test of the cure, consideriog it only an cta of justice to you and the public et large. I We are with much gratitude, Very respectfully - , TIMOTHY & ELIZA A. LITTLE. PS.—The Botanical Doctor pronounced the sore cancerous, and finally said no good could be done, unless the whole of the flesh was cut off and the bone scraped. Thank a kind Providence, this made us resort to your l'ills, which saved us from all further mis ery, and fur which we hope to be thankful. T. &E. A. L.
