F,nglair,ll Towards Us. A chmge is manifestly coming over the minds of the Engli.h Government in r aspect to the United States, which will make all things even bet Ween us at the last. The new foreign Secretary admits that we have grievances to complain of, meaning, of course, our Alabama claims; and if matters procee I as now long. it would not surprise u to ,ee f,ur British cousins voluntarily coining forward and offering, by their just actions, to do what will be sure to make a bygone of the past and secure our perpetual friendship for the future. How much easier at the last it is to do right than follOw its opposite; or to set, oqu's self rijgbt, alter having done a wrong, than to per,i t in it. Eng land and the United Sta!es.si.ould have been the closest of friends all throu::11 the late war; instead of which she per sisted in exciting feelings in us which it is the haraest of all rossib!e nacters to put and keep down. `i..tikt.ral:gt , '" Ills name was Strange, Many W think his conduct was strange also. lie was a zeaions preacher, and a sweet singer. Nothing gave him so much pleasure as to go about the country, preaching and singing. A gentleman, well off in worldly goods, desiring to malat him and his family comfortable in their declining years, generously pre sat:and him with a title deed for three hundred and twenty acres of land.-- Strauge accepted the donation with thankfulness, and went on his way, sing ing and preaching as he went. But after a few months he returned and requested his generous friend to take the title deed. Surprised at the riquest, tlie. gentleman Inquired : "Is :13..:re any flaw iu it ?" "Not the slightest," "Is not the land good ?" "First rate." "Isn't it healthy ?" "Perfectly." "Why then, do you wish me to take it back? It will he a comfortable home for you when you grow old and some thing for your wife and children, if you should be taken away." " Why, I'll tell you. Ever since you presented me with these papers I've lost my enjoyment for singing. I can't sing my favorite hymn with a good conscience any longer." What is that ?" "This: No foot of land do I possess, No cottage in this wilderness, A poor, wayfaring man." I dwell awhile in tents below, Or gladly wonder to and fro, Till I my Canaan gain. Yonder's lily house and portion fsir, Idy treasure and my heart are there, And my abiding home. " There':" said Strange, "I'd rather sing that hymn than own America. trust the Lord to take care of my wife and children." He continued singing and preaching, and the Lord, said the lecturer, did take Dare of hitn, and his children after him. s CIDER VINEGAR at JACKSON'S B EST SYRUP MOLASSES at JACKSON'S ason, Pea,*c2 & Moore PITTSBURGH, PA.

ZING AEI cmi THIS WONDERFUL REMEDY was discovered mid introduced about twenty yearsago by Pr. S. uheopsits, an eminent Egyptian physician. He had ;ong seen and felt the want of sonic reme dy which wuuld strike at the root of disease, and so prevent much of the suffering which the human family was then compelled to endure. The great question wits presented to his mind every day in vivid colors as ho moved among the sick and dying, and observed the inefficiency of nearly all the remedies then in use. Thus he was lead to think and experiment; and after ten years of study and labor, lie presented to his fellow-maul the wonderful Zingari Bitters. The effect of this prep aration in the prevention and cure of disease, was so marvellous and astonishing., that the most flat tering marks of royal favor were bestowed upon him who discovered it. Ills name was placed upon the Roll of Nobles, and a gold medal with the fol lowing inscription—Br, Cheopsus ' the Public Bene factor—was presented to hint by alto Viceroy. The preparation has been used in several ep:dern ies of cholera, both a. , a preventive and °unitive measure, and with such great success, that it has been introduced Into nearly all the general hospitals of the old world. The old saying that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. applies with tn.n•velous force to cholera, and therefore any remedy that will pro tect us against this terrible disease should he freely and persistently used. All pathologists now agree that the cholera poisim acts on the excretory organs, and keeps them in working order, must prevent a sufficient accumula tion of the poison to exert its terrible effects on the organism. This is true not only of cholera, lint of nearly all other maladies, especially the different forms of fever. The Great Zingari Bitters inject such a remedy as the abavo conditions require. Its nets on the organs of excretion and scorction,keeping up a per fect balance between them. This Bitters is com posed entirely of roots and herbs. so nicely con cooled that every organ is acted upon and put ill tone. Its taste is pleasant and its effects preempt and lasting. Numerous eases of the following disease have been cured by it: Cholera, Biarrhata, Dysentery, Typhoid and Typhus Fever, Fever, Ague, Nervon. Debility, A naem in, Female Irregularities, tyspe p sin, Flatulency, Curio, Scrofula, tie. Price one dollar per quart bottle.

S. BATITVOII. Scrofula, or King's Evil , is a constitutional disease, a corruption of the blood, by 'which this fluid becomes vitiated, weak, and poor. Tieing in the circulation, it pervades the whole body, and may burst out in disease on any part of it. No organ is free from its attacks, nor is there one which it may not destroy. The scrofulous taint is variously caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and; above all, by the venereal infection. What-, ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con . stitution, descending "from parents to children unto the third and fourth generation ; " indeed; it seems to be the rod of Hhn who says, "I will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon; their children." Its effects commence by deposition from the blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, ill the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed .. tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor, ruption, - which genders in the blood, depresses the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu, tions not only suffer from scrofulous com : plaints, but they have far less power to with. stand the attacks of other diseases; conse-, quently vast numbers perish by disorders which, although not scrofulous in their nature, are still rendered fatal this taint in tho system. Most of the consumption which de, eimates the human family has its origin directly in this scrofulous contamination;and mat destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain; and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from or. are aggravated by the same cause. One quarter of all our people are scrofulous ; their persons are invaded by this lurking in-. fection, and their health is undermined by it. To cleanse it from the system we must renovate the blood by an alterative medicine, and in vigorate it by healthy food and exercise, Such a medicine we supply in AYER'S Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla, the most effectual remedy whi . ch the medical skill of our times can devise for this every, where prevailing and fatal malady. It is com bined from the most active remedials that have been discovered for the expurgation of this foul disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the system from its destructive consequences. Hence it should be employed for the cure of not only Scrofula, but also those other affee.z tions which arise from it, such ILS ERUPTIVE and Sam DisEAses, ST. ANTHONY'S FIRE, ROSE, or ERYSIPELAS, PIMPLES, PUSTULES, BLo•rcuas, PLAINS and 13 o T.'. , TOW us, Trarmt and SALT Runum, SCALD laun, Rixowomr, RHEUMATISM, SYPHILITIC and Alma:mum. Ths- BAsus, Ditorsy, DYSPEPSIA, DEBILITY, 1111 d, indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING PROM VITIA TED On IMPURE BLoon. The popular belief in 4, impurity of the blood" i.. finnnted in truth, for scrofula is a degenei:nion of the blued. The particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa rilla is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid, without which sound health is impossible in contaminated constitutions. _A. - c2 - M P. ' S Ague Cure, TOIL TILE SPEEDY cunr. OF Intermittent Fever, or Fever and Ague, Remittent •Fever, Chin Fever, Down Ague, Periodical 11..adaelic, or Bilious Headache, and 131,Hous Fevern, indeed for the whole class of diseases originat tug in binary derangement, caused try the Malaria of Miasmatic Countries. We arc enabled here to offer the community a remedy which, while it cures the abuse complaints with certainty, is still . perfectly harmless in any quantity. Such a remedy is invaluable in districts where these afflicting disorders prevail. This "CURE" expels the miasmatic poison of Fin . me AND AGUE from the system, and prevents the de velopment of the disease, if taken on the first ap proach of its premonitory symptoms. It is not only the best remedy ever yet discovered for this close, of complaints, but also the cheapest. The forge quantity we supply fora dollar I rings it within the reach of every body ; ancl in bilious districts, where FEVER AND Anon prevails, every body should have it and use it freely both for ewe and protec tion. A great superiority of this remedy over any other ever discovered for the speedy and certain cure of Intermittents is that it contains no Quinine or mineral, consequently it produces no q itinism or other injurious effects whatever upon the constitu tion. Those cured by it arc left as healthy as if they had never had the disease. Fever and Ague is not /lone the consequence of the miasmatic poison. A great variety of disor ders arise from its irritation, among which are Neurolyia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache, Blind ness, floothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Pal pitations, Painful Affection of the Spleen, 11 ster ics, Pain in tho Bowels, Colic, Paralysis and DE , rangement of the Stomach, all of which, when originating in this cause, put on the intermittent type, or become periodical. This " Cunt . " expels the poison from the blood, and consequently cures them all alike. It is an invaluable protection to immigrants and persons travelling or temporal ily residing in the malarious districts. If taken occa sionally or daily while exposed to the infection, that will be excreted from the system, and cannot ztcoumulate in sufficient quantity to ripen into dis. ease. Hence it is even more valuable far pre,tee, tion than cure, and few will ever surer from Inter mittents if they avail themselves of the protection. this remedy affords. Prepared. by Dr. S. C.
