IIT-As a SPRING and SUMMER MEDICINE, Carter'* Spanish Mixture stands pre-eminent above all othet. Its singularly efficacious action on the blood ; its strengthening and vivifying qualities ; its tonic action on the Liver ; its tendency to drive all humors to the surface; thereby cleansing the system according to Nature's own prescription ; its harmless, and at the same time extraordinary good effects, and the number of cures testified to by many of the most respectable citizens of Richmond, Va., and elsewhere, must be conclusive evidence that there is no humbug about it. The trial of a single bottle will satisfy the most skeptical of its benefits. *,"See advertisement in another column.

The Bedford Gazette, (holera Among kausas Emigrants. The Boston Journal of the 12th inst., con tain* the following :—Letters have been receiv ed in this city within a days, by several parties, which confirms the statement made by our correspondent, that the cholera had appear ed on some of the boats on the Missouri river. A letter from a gentleman who went out in the party of Kansas emigrants who left this city on the 10th ol April, gives rather a gloomy account. The party left St. Louis in the steamer Austra lia, which was crowded with some two hun dred and fifty United States troops, and alter proceeding some distance up the river, the boat got stuck on a sand bar, where she remained two or three days, and until the whiter left.'— Tiie weather was oppressively hot, the ther mometer ranging at about 90. There Were several rases of cholera on hoard, and four per sons bad died with it. The letter does not spe cify whether they were soldiers or < ther pas sengers. The probability ie thev were soldiers, if we can judge from the condition in Which they were placed. They Were crowded below, a most uncomfortable and unfit {dace in which to pack human beings in such a temperature, Three of the soldiers had heavy clogs fastened fo therri with chains, which they had been sen tenced to wear on account of desertion. The following letter is from the St. Louis Re publican, May 10: I have just received a Ut ter from a friend in West port, in which he states that on the evening of the 3d, the cholera, that fell destroyer,appeared in the most malig nant form, causing thirteen deaths in 24 hours. Its attacks were, in almost every case, sudden and completing its dread mission in two or three short hours. Among the victims Were I lie wife and daughter of Dr. J. O. Boggs, who were much beloved bv all who knew them.— The letter also stated that Kansas City was in as great or greater distress than Westport.— The Lightened inhabitants were leaving both I . places as rapidly as possible, arid dispersing themselves in the country and different towns in the vicinity. Up to the time of closing'the letter, the evening of the 4th, there had been no abatement. £F°"HEKE is one of'the most impressive para | graphs we have lately seen : ■"Life is expenditure: we have it i but are as ; continually losing it: we have the use of it, hut | are continually wasting it. Suppose a man i confined in some fortress under the doom to stav there till death, and suppose then* is there for his u>e a dark reservoir of water, to which it is certain none can ever he added. He mavsnj ! pose the quantity is very great: he cannct ; penetrate to ascertain how much, hut it niav be | very little. He hosdi&wn from it by means of a fountain a good while alr< ad\, and draws from it every day. But how would he fie! each lime , of drawing, and each time of drinking of it 1 Not as if he had a perennial spring (o go to. Not, ' ; I have a reservoir, I mav be at ease."— No! but, I had water yesterday, I have water to to-day, but having had it, and mv having it to-day, is the vety cause that I shall not have it some day tfiat is approaching* And at this time I am compelled to this fatal expenditure." So of our mortal tiansient life. And yet men are indisposed to admit the plain truth, that life is a thing which they are in no way possessing than as necessarily consummating, and that even this imperfect sense of possession, it becomes every day a less possession." lAidies Dress (oods.
