To William Mathiot and H. B. Swarr, Esq , s, Chair
men of the Democratic Executive Committees of
Lancaster City
We, the undersigned, candidates for nomination
before the city meeting to be held in the Court
House, to select candidates for the various offices
to be supported at the ensuing City Elections,
would request you to call the meeting at 2 o'clock
in the afternoon of such day as you may. name :
The candidates agreeing that the Committees shall
select officers to conduct the election—the said
officers to be paid by subscription raised by the
undersigned.' We believe that by opening the
polls at 2 o'clock, and - closing at 8 o'clock in the
evening, much illegal voting would be prevented;
and the persons receiving a majority of votes polled,
would be'the fair choice of the Democracy of the
City.
We trust that you may consider the necessity of
these arrangements, and grant the request.
Very respectfully your obedient servants.

Moors ron CALIFORNIA.—The Falcon, which

California. This is a wise and necessary movement
on the part of the Government, recent accounts
showing very plainly that, with liability to Indian
outbreak., the regular force in California, and in
Oregon also, was inadequate. For suppression of
Indian depredations, the regular troops are for many
reasons greatly to be preferred to volunteers.

CHERRY PECTORAL
For the Cure of
COUGHS, COLDS. HOARSENESS.
BRONCHITIS, ITHOOPING-CONGH,
Among • the numerous discoveries Science has
made in this generation to facilitate the business
of life--increase its enjoyment, and even prolong
the term of human existence, none can be named
of more real value to-mankind, than this contribu
tion of Chemistry to the Healing Art. A vast trial
of its virtues throughout this broad country, has
proven beyond a doubt, that no medicine or com
bination of medicines yet known, can so surely
control and cure the numerous varieties of pulmo
nary disease which have hitherto swept from our
midst thousands and thousands every year. In
deed, there is now abundant reason to believe
Remedy has at length been found which can be re
lied on to cure the most dangerous affections of the
lungs. Our space here will not permit us to pub
lish any proportion of the cures affected'by its use,
but we would present the following opinions of
em'nent men, and refer further inquiry to the cir
cular which the Agents below named, will always
be pleased to furnish tree, wherein are full partic
ulars, and indisputable proof of these facts.
PROM THE PRESIDENT OF AMHERST COL-

PROFESSOR HITCHCOCK
"James C. Ayer—Sir: I have used your CHERRY
PEcruhAt in my

that it is an admirable compound for the relief of
laryngial and bronchial difficulties. If my opinion
as to its-superior character can be of any service,
you are at liberty to use it as you think proper.

the class of disaeses it is intended to cure."
New Haven, Ct., Nov. 1, 1849.
MAJOR PATTISON, President of the S. C. Sen
ate, states he has used the CHERRY PECTORAL with
wonderful success, to cure an inflammation of the
lungs.
From one of the first Physicians
Dr. J. C. Ayer, Lowell.—Dear Sir : I am now
constantly using your CnEany PECTORAL in my
practice, and prefer it to any other medicine for
pulmonary complaints. From observation of many
severe cases, I am convinced it will cure coughs,
colds, and diseases of the lungs, that have put to
defiance all other remedies.
I invariably recommend its use in cases of con
sumption, and consider it much the best remedy
known for that disease.
