Empirics and others, asthc {treat-regulator of

.the adherents to that erroneous doctrine, that
they content themselves with the simple posses
sion of this fallacious opinion, without enquiring
inti the-primary .sources from whence l/ife,
Health, and Vigor emanate, and, vice versa*
-pain, sickness, disease and death. 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.
The extraordinary success which has attend
ed the use of. Hunt’s Piuis/ is
the best criterion of their superior virtues.
. They have been the. means of raising, a,
host of languishing patients from the bed
of affliction, as it is clearly evinced in the
following

In thd fall of 1838, finding the premonitory symp

Dyspepsia, or Indigestions Effectually
Mr. Wm. Tucker, having lately been restnr
ed to d sound state of health, through the effica
cy of Dr. fitint'e Botanic Pills* tliinks it un jp
dUpensable duty _to'state "certain facts rclattve.to
the disease under, which he had so long suffered.
The symptoms were a painful Obstruction, with
a constant rejection of food, head-ache,'palpita
tion of the heart, lowness of spirits, a trouble
some ch‘y cough, dizziness, tightness at the chest
and difficulty of breathing, almost constant pain
in the sidelining, and shoulders, accompanied
.with* much languor and debility. These afflic
tions, together with an unusual degree of flatu
lence, brought on such a stale of extreme weak
ness, as to prevent him from attending to his bu-‘
siness, and his health appeared lost beyond re
covery. His friends'and relatives became n
larmed at the melancholy prospect, and strongly
recommended Hunt’s Botanic Pills—they were
administered, and in a‘few days, produced aston
ishing relief, and finally realized a perfect resto
ration to sound health. *“

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,

HARD TIMES.
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

Call in at the markets, and learn if the
choice cuts go begging. Point to some one

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.
After all, theirs is perhaps the most salis
factory lot; for by proper prudence they
suffer less than those in gildcil niif/pry who
are subjected to the.mortification of turning
away demands which they know should be

science is pricked, if they have any. -

1 The most distressing accounts of the cf
■ fects of the yellow fever continue to reach
1 us. 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.
