ays:
-•The great difficulty in the way of au effectual
uccommodit ion is that a great many of out leading
men don't I cur.t it. Our Government is too repub
lican—too liee ami too weak lor them, because
thev wdl not obey aud submit to it! Their minds
filled wiili visions of strong and splendid Govern
ments, with the whole country glistening with
armor and epaulettes, they wish the people hum
hied by being loaded down with taxes, and the
toiling millions reduced to the use of meat once a
week. They are right in one position at least.—
Such a government would give us peace. Napo
leon. nitli bis six hundred thousand men, would
execute the Fugitive Slave laws, Neutrality laws,
Slave Trade laws, aud without submitting them to
juries. He would also collect plenty ol taxes,
whether received from tho customs or not. He
would also make abort wot k with some cl our uoisy
Conventions and public meetings, and some of our
gre.-it men would soon fiui themselves 011 the way
to Cayenne. I have no wish for such a Govern
ment myself, hut if the people want a Government
—1 ecause they will net submit to a weak one—if
they want an expciisiv, Government, because they
wili not pay tor a cheap one-if tbey wish to be
governed by force, because thsy will not govern
themselves, in the name of peace let tbe will of tbe
people he done! lam only one of them and will
submit to share theii ftesiiny. lam a native of the
South. 411 my tie.- aud interests are here —here I
have long lived and here 1 expect to die."

Of old mother Eve
Ne'er learn, like too many,
Her lord to deceive.
But may there be union
In heart and in l\ft,

'Twixt WILL and his wife.
The flag of your union
Be ever unfuri'd
To gaze of the gossip
And gaze of tho world.

Ayer's Sarsaparilla
/ A
A compound remedy, in which we have la-
Ixjrcd to produce the most effectual alterative
that can bo loude. It is a concentrated extract
of I'ura Sarsaparilla, so combined with other
substances of still greater alterative power as
to afford an effective antidote for the diseases
Sarsaparilla is reputed to cure. It is believed
that such a remedy is wanted by those who
suffer from Strumous complaints, and that one
which will accomplish their cure mud prove
of immense service to this large class of our
afflicted fello\v-citizens. How completely this
compoimd will do it has been proven by exper
iment on many of the worst casus to be found
of the following complaints:
SCROFULA AND ScnoruLOU3 COMULAIXT",
ERUPTIONS AND EIIUPTIVE DISEASES, ULCEUS,
Pinrtss, BLOTCHES, Tuxioas, SALT UULITH,
SO\ L I> 11RAI>, SYPHILIS ASD SVPHILHIC AF
FECTIONS, MeaceuiAT, DISEASE, DROPSY, .N A~-
tuui.t oa Tic Doumoastx, DLIULI,*, DTE
-I'ErSIA AXD IXTJIC - :TI ,S, E AVOPLI. . , It ,SB
OH Sr. ANTHONY'S Fins, and indeed the whole
class of complaints arising from IjiyuKav OF
THE BLOOD.
This compound will be found a great pro
mhter of health, v.-hca taken in the spring, to
expel the foul humors which fester Li the
blood at that season of the year. By the time
ly expulsion of them many rankling disorders
are nipped in the bud. Multitudes can, by
the aid of this remedy, spare themselves from
the endurance of foul eruptions and ulcerous
sore*, through which the system will strive to
rid itself of corruptions, if not assisted to do
this through the natural channels of the body
by an alterative medicine. Cleanse out the
vitiated blood whenever you find its impurities
bursting through the skin in pimples, eruptions,
or sores; cleanse it when yon find it is ob
structed and sluggish in the veins ; cleanse it
whenever it is foul, and your feelings will tell
you when. Even where no particular disorder
i felt, people enjoy better health, and live
longer, for cleansing the blood. Keep the
blood healthy, and all is well; but with this
pabulum of life disordered, there can be no
lasting health. .Sooner or later something
must go wrong, and the great 'machinery of
lif - is disordered or overthrown.
Sarsaparilla has, and deserves much, the
reputation, of accomplishing these ends. But
the world has been egregiousiy deceived by
preparations of it, partly because the drug
alone has not all the virtue that is claimed
for it, but more because many preparations,
pretending to be concentrated extracts of it,
contain but little of the virtue of barsaparilia,
or any tiling else.
During late years the public have been mis
led by large bottles, pretending to give a quart
of Extract of Sarsaparilla for one dollar. Most
of those have been frauds upon the sick, for
they not only contain little, if any, Sarsapa
rilla, but often 110 curative properties whatev
er. Hence, bitter and painful disappointment
has followed the use of the various extracts of
.Sarsaparilla which flood the market, until the
name itself is justly despised, arid has become
synonymous with iinj -vtivu and cheat. Still
we call this compound Sarsaparilla, and intend
to supply such a remedy as shall rescue the
name from the load of obloquy which rests
upon it. And we think wc have ground for
believing it has virtues which arc irresistible
by the ordinary run of the disef ses it is intend
ed to cure. In order to secure llieir complete
eradicate n from the system, the remedy iLould
he judieuiualy taken according to dirtelions en
the bottle.

Battle Creek, Mich., Dec. 21, 1858.'
Paojr. WOOD : Thee wilt please accept a line to
inform thee that the hair on my head ail tell oil" over
twenty years ago, caused by a complicated chronic
disease, aiteniled with an eruption on the head.—
A continual course of suffering through life having
reduced me to a state ot dependence, I have not
been able to obtain stuff for caps, neither have I
' heen abie to do them up. in consequence of which
, my head has suffered extremely from col l. This
; induced me to pay Briggs & Hodges almost the last
cent I had on earth for a two dollar bottle ut thy
Hair Restorative about the first of August lust.—
; I have faithfully followed the directions and the
j bald spot is now covered with hair thick and black,
i though short, it is also coming in all over my head.
' Feeling confident that another large bottle would
| restore it entirely and permanently, I feel anxious
to persevere in its use, and being destitnte of
means to purchase any more, I would ask thee it
thee wouldst not be willing to send me an order on
thine agents tor a bottle, and receive to thyself tho
scripture declaration—"the reward is to those that
tire kiud to the widow and the fatherless "

Paor. O. J. WOOD : Dear Sir :—ln the latter part
of the year 1852, while attending the Stat-- and
National Law School of the State of New York,
mv hair, from a cause unknown to me, commenced
falling oil' very rapidly, so that in the short space
of six months, the whole upper part of my scalp
was almost entirely bere/t of its covering, and much
of the remaining portion upon the side and back
part of my head shortly after became cray, so that
you will not be surprised when 1 tell you that upon
my return to the State of Indiana, uiy more casual
acquaintances were not so much at a loss to dis
cover the cause of the change in my appearance,
as my more intimate acquaintances were to recog
nize me at all.
I at once made application to the most skillful
physicians in the country, but receiving no as
surance from them that my hair could again be re
stored, 1 was forced to become reconciled to my
fate, until, fortunately, in the latter part of the
year 1857, your Restorative was recommended to
me by a druggist, as being the most reliable Hair
Restorative in nsc. I tried one bottle, and found
to mj gieat satisfaction that it was producing the
desired effect. Since that time, 1 have used seven
dollars' worth of your Restorative, and as a resuit,
have a rich coat of very soft black hair, which no
money can buy.
As a mark of my gratitude for your labor and
skill in the production of so wonderful an article,
I have recommended its use to many of my friends
and acquaintances, who, I aar happy to inform you,
are using i; with like effect.
Very respectfully, yours.
