Before they left Lexington theyobtained a written permit from Qen.’THee granting protection to any boats that easy go to Lexington for that purpose. Qen. Fremont has approved of this action, and they will start this morning. Advices from Saline county report that the rebels are overrunning that eection of the coun try with scouting parties, who are impressing the Union citizens _ into the rebel ranks, levying upon their goods. Gen. M’Kins try and staff strived here last evening. Gen. Pope is still here. Totten’s battery was among the arrivals yesterday. Scouts arrived last night from Warsaw, eighty eight miles distant, but they report, nothing new. They beard that McCullough was advan cing on Jefferson City by way-of Linn Cnok. The'“Stars and Stripes” waving over Colonel Mulligan's entrenchments was pierced by forty one balls, but not one struck “ the Union” a favorable omen. A special dispatch to the Chicago Tribunt, dated Quincy, 111., Sept. 30, says:—As there ia much speculation concerning the strength of the two armies about,to meet at Lexington, it may be interesting to state that a letter received by me to-day from. Huntsville, dated the,27th inst., expresses the confident opinion that Fre mont will be beaten unless he can arrayj6o,ooo men against Price, The writer says the country is filled with armed men marching to reinforce Price. He is satisfied that Mulligan’s surrender added 28,- 000 to Price’s strength. Everything is reported quiet on the Hannibal and SL Joseph Railroad. , PBOM KENTUCKY. A special despatch to the Chicago Times, da ted Sept. 30th, says that the rebels attempted to burn a bridge one mile from Norfolk this morning. They were met and repulsed by Cept. Nolen’s cavalry. Three rebels were killed by the first volley, and, others killed end wounded afterwards. Only one Federal sSHier was wounded. A wounded rebel said that as death was sure be might as well tell the truth. He staled that Gen. Pillow was in Kentucky, back of Colum bus, on Saturday, marching on Padncafa, 27,000 strong, and that Jeff- Thompson’s movements are a feint to divert attention from that quarter. Information reached Paducah yesterday that Gen. Pillow had left Columbus to effect a junc tion with the troops marching on Paducah, from Tennessee.

Kind patrons, it is a long time since we have addressed you oh the money subject, and we feel sure that the files of our paper will bear us out in the assertion that we have dunned less in the last three years, than any other publishers in the country. In fact we have but once asked, through onr paper, for money in that time. The reason is, because we do not like to, bo “ dunned,” consequently we do not like to dunn others. But we now want money for a particular purpose, and if our pat rons who are in, debt for subscription, ad vertising and job work, will pay up, we will have enough to accomplish our pur pose, and that purpose willjbe beneficial to our subscribers and patrons as well as ourselves. Now we don’t want one ot our patrons to withhold the amount of his indebtedness thinking that all the rest will pay up and it will make no difference about his mite. If this be the case we shall not succeed. We want all that >is due us. If our desires are acceded to, promptly, we shall effect our purpose by the first of October, at which time we shall extend an invitation .to our patrons that will astonish them. We are in ear nest, friends, and if you come up as you should, we will, at the time appointed,, show you something never before seen in this section of the country. Your bills arc all made out, so there need be no de lay. Will there be Drafting in Pennsylvania? —and in Blair County t —The quota of three years' troops to be furnished. try Pennsylvania, under the call of the President forGOO.GOO men, is T 5.000. As yet she has furnished only forty seven regiments, or about 50,000 men. The Government can not wait much longer for the remaining quota of men, and although the Scc rctary of War has forbidden drafting at present, it is altogether probable that it may yet be re sorted to in order to fill the remaining regiments, and we understand that the papers for this pur l pose hove been made outat Harrisburg and will be put into the hands of proper officers lobe served, if recruiting officers do not meet with better success pretty soonj _ ’Tis true Pennsylvania has furnished several thousand men—perhaps seven thousand —for regiments and brigades outside of the State, as, for instance, Sickles 1 Brigade, the California Regiment, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Vir ginia, Kentucky and District of Columbia reg iments, yet for these the State gets no credit, and the 75,000 must forthcoming indepen dent of them. Those who have enlisted in reg- iments, brigades or companies outside of the State have debarred themselves and their fami lies from all the provisions which have been or may-be made by the State for their support .or reward, as the State will know only those en rolled it its own properly organized regiments. We are glad to notice that the Governor has just issued a proclamation which will have the effect of preventing the carrying of men out of this State for the benefit of others. The proc lamation will be found in another column. In dependent of this, however, we think our citi zens should have enough of State pride to keep them in their State regiments. No one doubts that Pennsylvania could fur nish double the number of troops demanded of her, without serious injury to hcrjogricultural, manufacturing or commercial interests, or that she will do it, if needs be; but there is evident ly a want of the proper knowledge of the ne cessity for complying speedily with the dema;nds of the War Department. We live here, enjoy ing peace and plenty, removed from the scenes of conflict and the utter desolation, and starva tion which follows in the wake of the rebel ar my, and therefore do not realize the horrors and accumulating evils of the war, and the necessi ty for its speedy termination. We feel so little j of the effects of the rebellion that we read ac- j counts of the movements of the army and con flict of arms with scarcely more excitement than if they were transpiring on another continent. There must be something to rouse the people to a sense of their situation and their duty, and that something will come ere long. If the work of recruiting does not prosper better in the fu ture than it has for some it is alto gether likely—yes, we may say, certain—that w* will wake np to a realization of our duty when an officer appears at our doors and sum mons us to take our position in ranks—willing of unwilling. We earnestly hope that there may never be cause to draft in Pennsylvania, If for nothing else than the credit of the State. —, While there is nothing whatever illegal or dis honorable about it, nevertheless, it is humilio tiog; and it appears to us that a soldier who volunteers can fight better and, if he escapes death, return home more, proudly than the one who flghte becaois he is compelled to, It u not to bo expected that all men are to ~.1.. 10 40 A. M. 7OO “ 7 00 A. M.aud 6 00 P.M. 6 00 V. M, 720 « leave their callings and go into the army, nor is it Tight that they should, except in cases of State invasion. While one man’s business will admit of his leaving it for a time, another per* son’s would be entirely destroyed by go doing, thereby preventing him from providing proper ly for UU own household, as well as those of his | neighbors, which he would be able to do if be j remained at btlme and prosecuted that business. i The Call is more direct to the young and single ; men of the country, yet we venture the predic tion that if we bad a canvass of the army now in the field we should find* that they are not up to their proportion. s In: the above remarks we have had reference to the State. We eome now to speakof- Blair county. Every citizen of the county felt u just pride in that he was a citizen of “ Little Blair," when her young men,-middle aged men and even old men, almost simultaneous with the call for troops, threw themselves forward by hundreds, not knowing when, where, or in what numbers j they were to meet the enemy, until the county had furnished more men for the three month service, in proportion to her population, than any other.county in the State. And shall she now lose her patriotic position ? We have been informed ,by those who have made an estimate of the number of moo who have entered the three year service, from this county, that it does niot;exceed 500. Lawrence county, in this State, with a voting population of 3,604 has furnished 1,200 men. Cambria county, which contains 4,760 voters, has 1,100 men in the field, while Biair county, With her 6,223 voters, has only men in her country’s service. This is not a fluttering picture. Lawrence and Cambria comities have done nobly. Blair county can do tbersame. Will her sons bring her upagnia to the high and patriotic position whichjshe took at the outbreak of the rebellion? Fall iO, fall in,, young men; the earlier you enter the ranks the sooner you will be ready to do effective service on the field of action. Do not wait to be drafted. We do not wish to frighten any into enlisting j by intimating that they may be drafted, tbougb i’sucb may be the case, preferring to see them I-enter-the service in a more patriotic: way, and j we believe they will it when they properly understand that their services aro-nceded. Quite a Storm. —On Friday evening last, j we were visited by a regular old-fashioned equi- | noxial storm —one of those which “runs things into the ground,” and pulls things out of the ground, and scatters things around miscellane ously. Tl;e heaviest part of it came about night fall, and the way the-wind and rain swept around the corners, making shutters clash, win dows rattle, and sign-boards creak, was fearful to hear. Considerable damage was done by the Water in the way of flooding street-crossings and carrying away the footwalks over gutters, causing pedestrians to take unWilling and un necessary baths. In North Ward the sidewalks were swept out into the street, and cellars inun dated. Several washes in the Branch Hail Road, between this place and Hollidaysaurg, did dam age to the track, but they were promptly rc j paired. We learn that considerable darnage was j j doneito dams and property along the streams in j Cambria county and further west. : In Phila- | delpia the storm raged- terrifically, levelling i shade-trees, demolishing awnings,I unroofing! buildings, blowing bricks off chimneys, and | j doing much 1 other damage. From the Pittsburg ! | Chronicle, of Monday last,_we learn that the I I freshet in the Monongahela and Allegheny rivers was tremendous, and the destruction of property almost beyond computation. Five saw-mills in Clarion county were swept away, together with millions of feet of lumber. Oil-tanks were overflowed and washed out, and hundreds of ' oil-barrels carried off. Coal boats were torn 1 loose from their moorings and drifted down the j tide to become perfect wrecks. Th® water was j higher than ever before known, except on two j occasions—in 1810 and 1832—but.it did not do ! so much damage at those times, for the reason I that there were not so many improvements along the banks of the-rivers. Ah EsoiHEEa’s REsrossiDiUTt. —Reader, j have you ever thought, ■while dashing oyer bridges, through valleys, around hills and pre cipices and under mountains, at the rate of three minutes, or less, to a mile, that your per sonal safety, even your life, is in the hands of the engineer, and the responsibility which rests upon him. You know not what IS;ahead —you could not know if you wished to, fpr it is more dangerous to attempt such a feat than to keep your position, and even if you were to observe danger you are powerless to avoid;it. The en gineer is the only man on the train who looks i ahead. He keeps his eye fixed upon the track every moment the train is in motion. Upon his vigilance and skilfulness depends the safety of j all on board the train. , How awful to think that the lives of so many are in the hands of one j mao, and that no action on their part can ren der them more secure. There are certain dan gers, too, which an engineer cannot guard against because .he cannot foresee them —such as. the breaking of a flange, a nut, a screw, an axle, a broken rail, a insecure bridge, and other de fects in workmanrtip, any of which would send | a train whirling down a precipice or into a riv er. Hoir important that an engineer should be a good man in every respect, since such a re sponsibility rests upon him. It is no common occupation and deserves to beolassed higher than it really is. While everything goes well, the position is not accounted :muoh, save by those who desire its pecuniary reward ; butTet a serious accident occur, and no one envies the situation of him who may havebecn the inno cent cause of it. Give the rail wuy engineer his place, and let him feel the resposibility of his calling., Fast; Dat. —ThursdayJast was almost tmiver- j sally observed, in this place, as Fast Day. We notioedbut two or three small Cosiness places open.. ;Work was suspended inthe Company’s shops, and the day wore the appearance of a well ordered Sabbath. There was Divine ser vice in almost all the churches, and thecongre gaVions were large and attentive. But few, so f ar ns we observed, disregarded the injunction of the Chief Magistrate and perverted the good effects designed, by engaging in worldly em ployment or rambling to the woods oh banting excursions. Of the number who fasted we enn not sgeah; Elocutionary Entertainment. —Rev. Alax. Clark, editor of the School Visitor, gave an en tertainment at Jaggard’s Hall, on Tuesday even ing of last week, to a large and highly delighted audience. Mr. C. is almost inimitable in his delineations of school-boy characteristics, and his lectures are productive of good effects. He can produce more beneficial amusement in the same space of time than any lecturer we know of. He is, as. he deserves to be, well received wherever he goes. Accident on tbb Railed ad. —On Tuesday evening last, a man was found on the track of the Pennsylvania Railroad near Mineral Point, joon after the passage of the fast line West, with his right foot cut off by being run over by the carsi 'He gives his name as Ttiask, from Potter county in tHis State, where he says he has a wife and family. He is dressed in grey soldier clothes, and says he was sworn into the service and fell off the cars while on his way to join his command. He appears to he somewhat unsound in mind. 8C&.

Camp Thomas, Meridian Him., "I Near Washington, Sept. 27, 1861. j < Messrs. Editors: — Some of your readers i are probably becoming impatient to hear from , the Ist District of Columbia Regiment, therefore I drop you a line for their benefit. On the 14th ( Instant we left our quarters on £ street and 1 marched to the arsenal where we received our ■ arms, and from thence to the above named bill, , where we are now encamped. The scenery ■ from this point is beautiful. All aronnd ns are camps, and the white .tents present an appear ance not unlike a vast field of snow-balls on their green bushes. Wo are daily visited by many young ladies from the city, who have manifested their patriotism and respect for us by presenting to our regiment a large and beau tiful flag, got up in the most finished style, having written on it in large golden letters, “First District of Columbia Regiment.” Bully for the ladies' of Washington. We (Altoonians and Tuckaboe-boys) are un der Capt. C. H. Rodier, who, although a stran ger, is a man we all like. The officers of the regiment are, so far as I am acquainted with them, praiseworthy. Lieuts. Clark and Rigg seem to have the good will and good wishes, of the entire regiment. The officers of our company are—C. H. Rodier, Captain; John M. Clark, Ist Lieut.; James W. Rigg, 2d Lieut.; R. G. Clark, Ist Sergt.; Charles £. Laub, 2d Sergt.; Oscar Beatty, 3d Sergt.; Samuel Stew art 4th Sergt.; Thomas O’Brian, 6th Sergt.— Our regiment is, or soon will be, equal to regu- I lars. Our officers have all been appointed by the Secretary of War. The Republican, of this ! city, paid a very high compliment to Col. Tail’s j First Reg. D. C. Volunteers, on the occasion of j our marching to the arsenal for our arms, and ! going into camp. { Several days since, JohnC. Rives, Esq., came \ out tp our camp and paid a voluntary entrance j fee of $lOO in gold, saying, at the same time, that be would similarly remember the boys on a future occasion. The Paymaster General was around this way the other day, and paid off the ■ Regiment up to the Ist of September,, which seemed to please the boys very much. Our pay only amounted to $2.16 each, and many were “strapped” in two hours after they received (the gold. Considering the favorable circum stances surrounding us, I think it would (be very ungrateful for any one to grumble or com plain. Wo have had several showers of rain lately, which makes it somewhat disagreeable in camp. This evening there is quite a storm of wind, which is creating much merriment among the hoys, from the fact that tents are going over endwise and sidewise, and cracking and snap ping in the nir like stage-whips. The evenings and mornings are getting quite cool in this re gion, and many of us are yet without overcoats, but wo expect them to-morrow. Universal health prevails in our camp.;— Some of us having come up to our present po sition through much tribulation, wo look bock upon the past with sad countenances, but we must rejoice for the present and hope for the future. Time will not permit mo to speak fur ther of our camp-life at present. Respectfully Yours, ISAAC MAURER. Whose Corns are Tread On? Wo are permitted to copy the following ex tract from a letter written by a young man, ( a member of Capt Waynes Company of Keystone Zouaves, ) to his father after his arrival at camp. It will pinch the corns of more than one. Who are they? 'v. Camp Cameeon, "1 Harrisburg, September 26, 1861. / Dear Faiheb. —l arrived at camp about six o’clock last evening, got my supper, and found the boys all well We bad a nice time coming down but we only had two recruits with ns.— The rest did not get to the Station in time or else were not men enough to stick to their prom ise. 1 would not give much for such men. If 1 were acting like some of the fellows, I would consider myself a nuisance. Were Ito shrink from duty now, when every consideration of patriotism calls me to the defence of my coun try, 1 don’t think I could look an honest man in the face, much less a fair lady. At Perrysville station, two little girls came to the cars and handed Lieut. G win and myself *aoh some handsome flowers. I don’tknow who they were, but they were heartily cheered by us. God bless them. Your affectionate Sou J. Q. S. The Loss at Lbxisotos. —The Missouri Dem ocrat says: The loss on the rebel side, and Mul ligan’s loss, at Lexington, are both aggerated. Not over one hundred and fifty were lost on Mulligan’s side. Mulligan was forced to give up for want of water and reinforcements. He had no vinegar, as reported in the Btpubti atn. Mis fprees were sour enough Without that. „ An Important Decision. The following opinion, delivered by the Attorney General of the State, at the re quest of the Governor, is not only Very important to those entitled to Tote, bat it fixes the disfranchisement of those who voluntarily left the State, giving up their interest in its reputation and honor, to serve in the ranks of regiments raised by other States, at the expenseof their rights and citizenship in Pennsylvania. The opinion is brief and just, and cannot fail to be fully comprehended by all who are interested in the premises. Attorney General's OmCB, I Harrisbubo,; Sept. 27,1861. / My opinion is requested by the Governor, on the following questions, vis: I. What volunteers will be entitled to vote at the approacbinggeneral election, in their camps? 11. Whether, the volunteers so entitled to vote can vote for County officers? I. 1 am clearly of the opinion that no volun teers will be entitled to vote in their camps, ex cept such as are in actual military service in conformity with low, viz: Such as are in ser vice under the authority of the Governor on the requisition of the President of the United States. All the field officers of such regiments will be commissioned by the Governor, and the holding of such commissions by the field officers will be a fair test of the right of the regiment to vote. 11. The Act of Assembly provides that the. volunteers may exercise the right of suffrage; of course they hare as much right to vote for county officers as for soy other. ' W. M. MEREDITH, Att’y Gen’l. Since the above opinion was presented to the Governor, another question arose, which the Attorney General has disposed of as follows: Since writing the above an additional ques tion has been propounded to me, vix: Where men from several counties are in the some com pany, what course should be pursued? lam of opinion that in such cases there should be separate ballot-boxes, tally-lists, &c., for each county, and the votes should be returned to each county, of the voters entitled to vote in such county. W M. MEREDITH, Att’y Gen’L Sept. 28, 1861.

GKSTLEMB3t>—Your note of the 15th lost., baa been re ceived, saying that you had heard that I had teen bene fited by the Use of Wood’s Uair Restorative, and request ing my certificate of the foot if 1 had no objection to gltelt. 1 award It to you cheerfully, because 1 think it due. My age la about 50 ycora; the color of my hair auburn, and inclined to curl* Some five or six years since It began to turn gray, aid the scalp on the crown of my head to lose its sensibility and dandruff to form upon It. Each of these disagreeabiUties increased with time, and about 4 months since a fourth was added to them, by hair falling off the top off my head and threatening to make me bald. . lu this unpleasant predicament, I waa Induced to try i Wood’s Hair Restorative, mainly to arrest the tolling off 1 of my hair, for 1 had really no expectation that ‘gray hair could ever be ! restored to its original color except from dyea. I was, however, greatly surprised to find after the use of two "bottles only, that not only was the tolling off ] arrested, but the color was restored to the gray hairs and sensibility to the scalp, and dandruff ceased to form oh my head, very much to the gratification of my wife, at whose solicitation I was induced to try it. For this, among the many obligations I owe to her sex, I strongly feboinmend all husbands who value the admi ration of tlieEr wives to profit by my example, and use it If growing gray or getting bald. rospeettuUy^ To 0 J Wood A Co., 444 Broadway, New York.

In eneea of long standing, a euro wfli be more speedily effected by using, in dbnlnhcubn With frt Pills, either JAYNK’S ALTKEATIYK or TOXIC V|ft- MIFCGK, according to directions. Pot Urer Complaint' Gout, Jaundice, Aflbltions of the Bladder and Sidneys, fevers, Nervousness. Dteeam* of tin Skin, Impurity of the Bl rad, Slk Headache, Oosttrstutss, Piles, Female Diseases, and Billions Affections, these Piflf have proved themselves eminently successful. AU that Is asked for them is a foir trial. As these Pills bate proved themselves so.smlnetly suc cessful in removing diseases of the Liver. Dyspepsia and diseases of the Skin, 1 hare though t It advisable to add Ihd following remarks on LIVER COMPLAINT. This is a disease much talked about, bat at the same time very imperfectly understood. Properly speaking, every derangement of the Liver or Billions system Is a Liver Complaint, but the peculiar stats; of the Liver to which I now hare reference is a Chronic Affection* end usually arises from a torpid or Congestive state of that important organ. Sometimes the bffe ls do* ficient in quantity m or vitiated !n quality, or both these •tatos prevail at the same time. Sometime* the disease is owing to obstruction la the duet or pipe which eonvaya the bile from the liver into the bowels. This obstruction is very frequent, and is usually caused by the pipe being clogged up by thick tenacious slime or mucous; and some times by gall-stones. The bile is then thrown bock into the gall-bladder, where it is absorbed by numerous small vessels which couvey It into tho Thoracic Duct, a pipe that runs up along the spine, and terminates In and emp ties itself into tho largo vein of the loft shoulder, near Its Junctl u with tho veins of tho head and deck, sad thence the bile is conveyed to tlio heart and becomes mixed with the blood. The bile in this manner being diverted frojs Its proper course, aud circulating in a part o* the boar where it never was designed by nature, produces much rvu» and often disastrous effects upon the health of tho indi vidual—because, for want of healthy bile to mix with tha half-digested food, a complete separation never takes plane between tho ebylo (the milky liquor which forms the blood) and those portions of the food designed by uatui* to be ejected from the bowels—for the bile, when present parlfl“t and separates the healthy fr m the unhealthy por tions, in the same manner that tslogUas or white of eggs separate wine or cider from their Impurities—and, conse quently, the very fointaln of lifo la vitiated and corrupted. Costiveness prevails—or sUcruately cosUveness_or diar rhoea—wind in the stomach and bowels, and the patten! is often annoyed with worms, and frequently with the piles. Tho coarse particles of tho bile thus mixed with the blowL more or less obstruct the pores of tho skin and small blood vessels, and hence give rise to various direasea of the skin, such os erysipelas, cosemo, itchings, small watery resssfc, blotchcss tumors, pimples, scurffness, boils, sore eyes, sore* and ulcers of various kinds. The sklu is more or loss yellow, and (when the dhteaso !s of long standing.) often very darA:,aud has a disagreeable, dirty ,oreasy appearance, ; and sometimes there Is a perfect jaundice. The whUe oi the tyts also has a prseft or yellow tinge. MURK OB LESS bile is strained from tho blood In lbs passage through the kldueys, and, by its acrimony, pro duces pains iu the back, and scalds and irritates all tba urinary passages. Some days the passage of mine Is pro fuse, and natural In appearance; at other timee It is scanty, and the desire to evacuate in frequent and urgent. Some times the color is nearly white and milky, hut usually It U high colored, red or yellow, with a rank, offensive odor, and sometimes It is bloody. Tho tongue Is usually more or }ess coated with a brown scurfs Thero is irritation, and frequently chronic Inflam mation of the Inner feurfneo of the stomach and bowels, with a tenderness on pressure, and a soreness along tho lower edge of the ribs. SOMETIMES THERE IS A LOATHING of food, and at other times there is a voracious appetite. There is often a feeling of chilliness, and coldness of the feet and knees, and along the inside of tho thighs—sour or bitter eructa tions, and sometimes a spitting or throwing up of the food. ; after eating. *. There Is a feeling of oppression across the stomach and chest, as if pressed down by a weight; troublesome and often frightful dreams, low spirits, languor, want of ener gy, melancholy restlessness and dtoronteotedness, dreamJh nees of mind—timoroomces and a great deal of trouble, and a disposition to magnify everything, sometimes great watchfulness and an inability to sleep—at others great . drowsiness, weariness, and disinclination to motion. AT TIMES TUI FACE is flushed, with more or leas fever, especially at night or in the afternoon. Sometimes violent colics, and wandering pains in various parts of the body. Frequently there is a short hacking cough, with a hnskiness of the throat, and sometimes a very severe, dry, and hard cough, which Is often mistaken for consumption. This cough often commonces ln the \atter part of the night or early in the morning, and lasts for hours, frequently producing nausea and vomiting. If there be any expecto ration, it is a tough, ropy, tenacious phlegm, which ad heres t> everything it touches. There are also frequently chronic pleurisy pales in various parts of the chest, which shift about from one part of the breast or side to the other. Sometimes abscesses form In the liver, and pressing up ward on the lungs, produce constriction and cough, and breaking, discharge their contents into tbs longs, whence it most bu ejected by expectoration, or the patient Is de stroyed. Some persons are troubled with spasmodlo twitches In various parts of the body, sometimes fointneM and sighing, difficulty of breathing; reading or talking producing weariness. THERE 19 A BEATING SENSA TION near the pit of tho stomach, with palpitation and flattering of the heart; profusion of dandruff and loss of the hair; indeed, to sum up In a few words—a yellow; dirty, greasy appearance of tho skin, a yellow or green tinge of the white of the eyes, an aching pain acroee the kidneys and hips, wfth irritation or heat in discharging urine—a sensation of fullness or distension across the ab domen, with tenderness on pressure—lowness of spirits, fdghtfcl dreams, acidity of stomach, with other dyspeptic •ymptomt,,billions fevers, billions colics and bilious diar rhoea And dysenteries, obstinate costlVeness, intermittent and remittent fevers. Jaundice, fever jand ague, Aca all. originate from th» same cause—a deranged state of Us h'Hf. Violent remedies always do mqre harm than good; but, by a persevering use of these pills, all that can bo desired will be accomplished. THE MOST SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT is to give tha patient, every night on going to bed, from two four Sana tive pills; or enough of them to insure one and not mors than two evacnatlons from the bowels next morning;— The dose of the Pills can be increased or diminished at pleasure, so os to produce the above effect, and their use should be continued until a cure is completed; and Als6t at the same time give tha Alterative throe times a day according to the directions, unless there la a want of appie> tlte, with weakness and debility or symptoms of worms prevail, when, instead of the Alterative, give a teospoonfhl of the Vermiftige, (mixed in a little Cold.water and sweet ened to please the taste, about half an hour before each meal, until these symptoms are removed; and if there should bo cough, or oppression about the throat or chest, then give the expectorant as often and in such dosse as may bo found necessary to quiet tho cough and moke ex pectoration easy.
