Employ their powers, iq penning lofty rhymes,
Of other countries and of other climes ; [roam

Hail, Lancaster! progressive city, hail!
Where honest industry and wealth prevail!
How rapid is thy growth! each passing day
Brings new improvements forth in bright array,
Where '•once bleak lots and stagnant pools were
seen
41 And desolation saddened all the green”—
Three giant Cotton Mills may now be found.
And handsome buildings ranged In order round.
Within the compass of a single year, ‘
We see a splendid County Jail appear.
The reign of penny-candles now is o’er,
Bright burning Gas illumines every store :
No more the trav’ler has to grope his way,
The night is made as brilliant as the day ;
And ere th 6 waning of another year,
We’ll have a splendid first-class College here.
And last not least ’fore eighteen fifty-one,

MA, WHOOPING-COUGH
AND CONSUMPTION.
TITHE uniform success which has attended the use
lof this preparation—its salutary effect —its pow
er to relieve and cure affections of the Lungs, have
gained for it a celebrity equalled by no other med
icine. We offer it to the afflicted with entire con
fidence in its virtues, and the full belief that it will
Subdue and remove the severest attacks of disease
Upon the throat and Lungs. These results,as they
become publicly known, very naturally attract the
attention of medical men and philaqtropistsevery
where.. What is their opinion of CHERRY PEC
TORAL may be seen in the following:
VALENTINE MOTT, M. D.,
Prof. Surgery Med. College, New York, says: —
“ It gives me pleasure to certify the value and
efficacy of Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral, whichT consider
peculiarly adapted to cure diseases of the Throat
and Lungs.”
THE RT. REV. LORD BISHOP FIELD
writes in a letter to his friend, who was fast sinking
under an affection of the Lungs :—“ Try the Cher
ry Pectoral, and if any medicine can give you
relief, with the blessing of God that will.”
CHIEF JUSTICE EUSTIS,
of Louisiana, writes “ That a young daughter of
his was cured of several severe attacks of Croup by
the Cherry Pectoral.” ,
Hartford, Jan. 26, 184 S.
Dr. J. C. Ayer—Dear Sir: —Having been rescued
from a painful and dangerous disease by your med
icine, gratitude prompts- me to send you this ac
knowledgment, not only in justice to you, but for
the information of others in like affliction.
A slight cold upon the lungs, neglected at first,
became so severe that spitting of blood-, a violent
cough and profuse night sweats followed and fas
tened upon me. I became emaciated, could not
sleep, was distressed by my cough, and a pain
through my chest, and in short had all the alarming
symptoms of quick consumption. No medicine
seemed at all to reacli my case, untill providentially
tried your Cherry Pectoral, which soon relieved
and now has cured me.
Yours with respect, E. A. STEWART
Albany, N. Y., April 17, 1848.
Dr. Ayer, Lowell—Dear Sir : —I have for ycar9
been afflicted with Asthma in the worst form ; so
that I have been obliged to sleep in my chair lor a
larger part of the time, being unable to breathe on
my bed. I had tried a great many medicines, to
no purpose, until my Physician prescribed, as an
experiment, your Cherry Pectoral.
At first it seemed to make me worse, but in less
than a week I began to experience the most grati
fying relief from its use ; and now, in four weeks,
the disease is entirely re®oved. I can sleep on
my bed with comfort, and enjoy a slate of health
which I never expected to enjoy.

THE Essence is a preparation of unusual excel

those tempting beverages which debilitate the sto
