Not so with Da-Hunt, whose extensive research andprac r tioal experience so .eminently qualify him for the profession of which he has been onc'of the most use ful members. He contends—and a moment’s reflection will convince any reasoning mind of the correctness of his views—that the stomach, liv er, and live associated organs are the primary and great regulators of health, and that the bJqod in very many instances is dependent on these or gans, and that unless medicine reaches THE ROOT* OF THE DISEASE, thfc m/ierficial anodynes usually prescribed, serve but as fbils to cn\cr the ravages of deep-rooted maladies.—; Under these convictions, at the expense of years' of close application, the doctor has discovered u medicine whose searching powers are irrc&ivti ble, and in prescribing, it is with a knowledge of itsbeing’a radical cure in the various diseases, already enumerated, even if applied in the most critical cases, but he does not pretend to ascribe HUNT’S BOTANIC PHLLS a supernatural agency; although from positive proofs within the knowledge qf hundreds he is prepared to shew, that when every pther earth ly remedy has been l giyen up, HUNT’S BOTANIC PILLS have never been known to fail in effecting two very (.ratifying results, that of raising from the bed of sickness and disease those who have test ed their efficacy, and thus amply rewarding Dr. Hunt for his long and anxious study to attain this /icrfection iirthe-Hx’ALiKG A nr.

HAMILTON 8c ORIEU. Carlisle DR. WM. EVANS’ SOOTHING SYRUP* FOR CHILDREN TEE/UNO To Mothers and Nurses. The passage of the teeth through the gums Produces troublesome and.dangerous symptoms, t is known by mothers that there is great irri tation in the mouth and gums during this pro cess. The gums swell, the secretion of the saliva Is increased, the child is seized witli frequent and sudden fits of crying, watching, startitlgin its sleep, and spasms cf peculiar parts; the child shrieks with extreme violence, and thlusts its fingers into its mouth. If these precursory symp* loins are not speedily alleviated, spasmodic fcon vulsinns universally,upervene, and jjonn cause the dissolution of the infant. If mothers who have their little babes afflicted with these dis tressing symptoms would apply the celebrated -Ametican Soothing Syt up, which has preserved hundreds of infants when thought past recovery, from being suddenly at(ackc(Uwfth that fatal, malady convulsions. - This infallible remedy has preserved hundreds when thought (last recovery, from convulsions. As soon ns the Svrup is rubbed on the gums, the c(ild will recover. This preparation is so inno cent, so efficacious, and so pleasant, that no child will refuse to let its gums he rubbed with it. When infants are at the age of four months, though there is no appearance of teeth, one hot tie of the syrup should be used on the gums to open the pores. Barents should never he with out the syrup in the.nursery where there arc young children, for if a child wakes in tli.e night with-pain in the gums, the Syrup immediately gives ease, by opening the pores and healing the gums'; thereby preventing Convulsions, Fevers, Sec. .

The'following from the New York Dis patch is admirably well written, and ns sound in its moral as if Frankl in himself had put it' forthV . It is- worth a whole wilderness of| currency and pressure-,disquisitions, which! for the most part are little better than fog, and if not quite so strongly applicable to Philadelphia as it is to New York, where people have the reputation of living a little faster than they do,here, it has quite enough point to entitle it to repitition in this lati tude. In times of this country, in the cities at least, the retrenchment of per sonal expenses and-a-restriction in. the mat ter of luxuries, is by no means a remarkable prominent feature. Friuli’s advice to Jalfier —“home, home, and study to retrench”—is not often taken. Having once,indulged in a certain stylo of living, men are naturally apt to consider that style as one of their “vested rights,” and a position which they must oc cupy, let “the times”-be what they may.— Like the Spanish king—the renowned victim to etiquette—they will sit near the flre Until they are roasted, instead of pushing back their £hair .when .‘fhe position’ becomes too hot to be comfortable.- - Jt is a; disagreeable business, no doubt, but it is. wholesome and always productive of happiness to square one’s expenses by one’s means; 0 and if that will ilot aid to -soften the hardness of the times, it is diflicult to-imagine what will have an eOect to desirable.— Pennsylvanian. TVho says the Times (ire Hard? —Walk in Broadway at the promenade.hours, and. see the wealth of the Indies carried on the backs of the ladies; notice the tasteful and elegant establishments that roll along the carriage paths; see the doors of the fashion able shopkeepers, with as many carriages drawn up before them as if a great man’s levee were held at each, who says, in the. face of those facts that the times, are hard? Look at the elegant fabrics.which Cleo patra might, have desired—by the way of Cleopatra. Had Egypt offered a Broadway to go a shopping in, she could have melted 'the revenue of a province there .faster than by dissolving pearls in vinegari Look into the interior of the splendid stores which line the principal thoroughfares in our city--turn into the furniture and furnishing warehouses —and sec the means of gratification for re publican luxury. IJoqalT these things which in elegance surpass any thing which Xerxes knew,* there is apparently no lack of pur T chasers, and yet (he times are hard. Watch our young men, catching with anx ious promptitude the last new fashion, and going from extreme to extreme ns dissimilar ns the changes of the butterfly—all costing money, though the butterfly’s mutations cost none, and arc more beautiful. Wait until night fall, and hear the click of the cue, and then the rattle of the upon billiard tables. Look in at the elegant places of public resort, and ace the refreshments un der discussion upon marble tables. Take an ice yourself, and sit half an hour, to hear or see, if you can, any indication that times arc hard. Visit the theatres, now open, and see if there be such a falling oil" in the audir ence as bespeaks poverty.- Listen if the laUgh at Burton be less cheerful, or the at tention to the spectacles less intense than when times ai-c acknowledged easy." Ride upon the avenues, ‘and notice the fast goers that trot by* you. ‘‘Look at the e qUestrian parties, notice the stately estab lishments of‘old families’ and the light and gaudy turn-outs of new millionarcs. Travel farther, to the Springs, Saratoga, Brahdv wine'or Sulphur; go up the. Hudson—to Ni agara—to, Trenton Falls—to Canada—Na hant, any where—rand see if you find any body travelling besides yourself. See rather if all the world has not turned birds of pas sage in these, hard times. Money is not’ to bc-had— ergo_ —they (ravel-fornothing; Call in at the markets, and learn if the choice cuts go begging. Point to some one "wholluys shins,-liver orrirrmrsteaksT-or-buys fish for economy’s sake. Walk home with that young gentleman who has sent a week’s provision for a garrison to feed his family of half a dozen, will call to-morrow for as much you )valk, he Will be sure to tell you that money is awful hard. . It is a little strange that the hardness of money is so seldom indicated'by .the putlays of those' who complain most bitterly. 1 They cannot cash a tradesman’s bitf upon presen tation, because there is no. danger of protest upon refusal. They cannot- show debtors any graee, or give extensions—andUhey are actually compelled to pay. from one to two per cent, per month for money to lift their notes. AlLjhis time, however, they do 'not remember tnat 20 dollars saved from their personal Expenses or houschold 'disbufse ments will be so much' less that they will need to borrow. When the stake is counted in thousands and hundreds, tens and fives an: passed as no consideration. The eery desperation of shinning and borrowing mokes people more extravagant when the day’s work is done; and the wives and daughters of merchants find them most liberal >vhen they can least-afford-to’-be. The-parties themselves may not be aware of the true rea son of thisr—but it is a desire even to impose upon their wives an appearance of greater prosperity than they are enjoying.' They are too litany; however, who are compelled to realize the truth of hard times, when they dp come.'. These jpe the trades men, whose accounts -are never paid too promptly; which are put aside as long' as, possible upon the pretext of "scarcity of money.” Always counting the cost before they purchase, even in good times, they are yet more careful 'during a season of reverse.

A letter from Mobile, dpted the sth ult. • says: m The. scenes of distress and mortalily now existing in Mobile are unequalled in the his- • ’ tory of epidemics in modern times. Dr. Fean says lie cjm point (o places in Mobile which equal any accounts to he found of flic - plague in ancient times. Hundreds are dy ing for want of attendance; and Dr. F. says : he was in a room yesterday where 1,0 or JO, were dying at the same time, and were screaming lor water in the most frantic man ner, andlio one (0 hand it. The stores are closing, and Mobile lias the appearance of a suddenly deserted town.' There are scycr al'inaihnccs,« half dozen at least, of persons dropping.dend in'the street, and many more instances of individuals rising well in the morning, anti being shrouded before night. The city, whose population in winter is 15,- 000, is now reduced to 3,(|&0; most of the inhabitants having fled, or /removing as fast as they can. All the courts are closed and business at an end. There were fifty-four persons buried who died of the yellow fever within the three days preceding the 6th.” The New Orleans Louisianian of the 7th ult; says—“Duringthe, last three days of the '• present week, it is presumed that about 150 persons have died in New Orleans, or about 50 daily.” A letter from- Augusta, Georgia, dated 15th ult. says—“ The fcVcr-is very bad, and with a descried place -we. had 7 deaths to'l3 yesterday. .Dr. Kobcrfsdh, Dr. Anthony, and Dr. Ever, are taken down. All our oid i physicians are sick or dead, but one. The j Sherift"and Marshal died yesterday. C. L.a . timer and Henry Cummings were taken last , night. The deaths are B,to 12 per day. 1 ! do not believe there are 1,200 person's, white , and black,’ who sleep witldn the city.” Thursday, the 19th, was appointed by the i Mayor of-Mobile to be observed as a day of-* lasting, humiliation and prayer. Nearly all the stores and dwellings in the city were closed in consequence of the epidemic. The Register of the 18th thus refers to the scenes rthich this fearful visitation has disclosed: The past flies by us. -and the future brings with it nothing to cheer our drooping spirits. On one day we hear with feelings of glad ness that only a dozen deaths occur, but our hopes are shortly crushed by the knowledge . that the next'furnishes-a double quota of tenants for the tomb. These visitings, too, are at our very firesides;—if we look for our friends, they will be fount! suffering even at our doors, and we have nothing but the_ wretched opportunity of seeing them perish,”' without having the power of reaching out*a hand to save! The strong and young have, been mostly cut off—those to whom we might look for a promise of usefulness, or for as sistance in thisiiour of distress. No class or occupation isjroof against the insidious influence of the oppressor,—it stalks into the mansions of the wealthy, where care and attention "of every kind is furnished with a prodigal hajid, and into the low hovel, where 'the.'Wretchad have nought to live for, but daily toil to gain the necessaries of life. Sickness has become .a sure prelude to death—for the chances of recovery are not , one-third, when the disease has compelled the patient ( to lay upon his pallet—and in a few short hours, he feels sure of remaining - longor among the inhabitants of-carth; aftcr hope is abandoned by the physician, life of ten lingers for days and nights, and leads us . -loJJuqw to “w(iile there is life there is hope.” In the midst of this gloom, cannot a ray of light be dispensed? We fear not! Terror has ap parenlTy paralyzed our energies, and we ap pear but as statues of men'. Lct'individual aid, then, be continued—let those who prof fer it bear in mind, that however dangerous their troubles may,be here, they are, by their services, laying up a crown of glory for' themselves hereafter.. i young Men.-. —" When the fact is ’consider ed that they must very soon take the man agement of~thca(rairsof~this~mightynationr' into their own hands, it is highly gratifying to know that the' young men, just stepping upon the stage <;f political action arc, in this acction of the counfry generally democrats. In alluding to this subject, the venerable editor of the North Star, who during the se vere contest in Verniont, fought as vigorous ly for the success of correct principles as he | did during the last war, says that "on Tues day last twenty-one young men .took the - freeman’s oath in the village (Danville) and all but two voted.the democratic ticket. It . will, be remembered that about the same number took the oath and voted-(he demo cratic ticket in Danville last year. This is a good omen,! Success, we say, not only (o the young democrats of Vermont, but of the Union.” —Democratic Republican. • Michigan.—' This infant State deserves tile credit of having.devised the most may;- inificent plan for education, of any in the jUjitoit..
