• • • We leftlßualavilleabout 8 o'clock
in ti e morning, and soon, struck the prairie trail
for McDonough: In pririe waggons, (here dig
niflen with the name of coaches) we sometimes
meek with characters sui -generi, and we had them
in the present instance. The company consisted of
one I lady.and three gentle Men ; the former, a resi
dent of Kentucky—of the latter, two were Hoosiers,
and/myself from Pennsylvania,—" we four and no
mo# , ." Considerable time elapsed before any con
versation ensued, until at ; last warmed into'some
thidg like sociability by the lurching of the coach,
thrnwing us lieteiogeneruily to-gether, gave to each
a tongue. The Hoosiers were rampant politicians
antil one passed a glowing tribute upon Judge
1
D , VOLASS, winding up with his great availability
for the Presidency. Hooiier No. 2, was an out and
out Honsvox man, and he pitched into the little
Giant champion with a Mustang charge, or some
such as Sam gave Santa Anna on the plains of San
Jacinto. Of course I did not interrupt their collo
qus for 1 felt an indifferent interest about the re
sultmy affections being at home. But the lady
was not so apethetic. as Myself; for being appealed
to an their conversation, 'she spoke nearly as fol
low's, in a clear silvery voice and with a most elec
trical effect: " Gentlemen, I'm a Pennsylvanian by
•biribt, 'and by education a Kentuckian. To the first
f eat indebted for my existence—to the latter for
whatever of usefulness I may be to society. Under
thee circumstances, I yield the palm to my native
state, of which I feel prOud, when I think of her
great Senator, JANES &IC:FOUR'. But my prefer
ence for Mr. B. is not based upon State pride alone ;
he has evinced the devotiOn of a true patriot to his
country by marching with a musket on his should
er, 'in times of public peril, when Senators were
inviting the enemy to batter down the walls of the
Capitol. He has illustrated in his public life as
mi
1. 1
ch political wisdom—governmental sagacity
an high moral and intellectual worth, as any co
te porary statesman : He was the acknwledged
Nestor of the American' Senate while associated
with such intellectual giants as Wright, Clay, Cal
houn; Benton, King, Webster, Woodbury and oth
ers, all of whom yielded a ready tribute to his
practical sense and all-grasping intellect."
!That's the speech, myi dear iN—but the speaker.
• " aye, that's the rub!" isthere not moral beauty in
aose leaf; you should, have seen her fine dark eye,
glowing with enthusiasM—you should have heard
the emphasis—the tone-'--earnestness—the warmth
of expression—but Lit's , no use talking ;my
et otions were almost painful, and I could not utter
ono word of gratitude; though I felt it and must
have looked it, for the lady acknowledged it with
on e[ of the sweetest smiles that ever played upon
tl+ face of Southern beauty. I felt proud of my
home; I felt proud of OUCILINAN, and would not

watched the transition from life to death with pain

large number of devoted friends. Of a kind, amia

Schenck , s Pulmuntc Syrup.---A
Specific Remedy for Consumption, Scrofula,
Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia.
MR. DEACON'S CUE.
J. R. SCHENCK-
My dear sir—l am pleased beyond expression, to
inform you of the extraordinary cure your Pulmo
nic syrup has ma - de in my case. Eight or nine
years since I was attacked with a violent scrofulous
affection. Painful ulcers appeared on my face and
neck, which in a short. time ate the flesh to the
bones. My sufferings were awfuls. In a short
time ulcers came out nmy arms and body. The
discharges !Torn the ulcers were so offensive
that it was unpleasant for any Mile to stay in my
room. I applied to several physicians, who inform
ed me it could not be cured except by my under
going a nirecurial treatment, which I was very
loath to do. However, my disease continuing, the
ulcers increasing in size and number, my health
becoming daily impaired, and death inevitable, I
consented to the treatment. I took an immense
deal of calomel and mercury before the disease ap
peared to be arrested, all the time suffering tor
tures, my appetite gone and my body much emaci
ated ; every joint in my body seemed loosened, and
much swoolen and sore. I was pronounced cured
of scrofula, but bad.y afflicted with a " mercurial
disease."
My system was in a horrible condition. Every
change in the weather would bring upon me pains
which were almost beyond endurance. My diges
tive organs were very much impaired ; the ulcers
would occasional re-appear, discharging very offen
sive matter. 1 was induced to take " Syrup of Sar
saparilla," which I procured of some of the most
popular mamfacturers. After taking six or eight
bottles the disease would apparently subside, but in
the course of three or four weeks it would return
and compel me to resort to the same remedy. The
benefit I deriveed from using the Sarsaparilla was
merely temporary, and was costing me a great deal
of money, more than I was able to pay. I despair
ed of ever being cured ; my life was a burthen to
me; I often felt as though I would rather die at
once than linger on in such awful misery without
hope. About eighteen months since some of my
friends informed me of several cures of Scrofula
performed by SCHENCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP,
and requesting me to try it. I had no confidence
in anything, Mr. Van Doran, Conductor on the
Bamden and Amboy Railroad, told me of a person
cured by your Syrup, and insisted on my giving
it a trial. His confidence in it produced me to pro
cure a half dozen bottles. At the time I was suf
fering tortures, my limbs were much swollen and
very painful, the ulcers discharging very offensive
matter; nothing but large dose of landanum ena
bled me to . sleep. Being rising the rsing the con
tents of the fifth bottle I experienced a benefit; my
degistive organs much improved, and seemed to
regain their healthy exercise; . my appetite was
much increased, and I felt stronger throughout my
whale system; the ulcers discharged very freely,
and the discharges became less and less offensive.
Whilst using the tenth bottle all swel.inn, and sore
hese left me, the discharges subsided, the ulcers
commenced healing, and before the bottle was
empted, all appearance of ulcers were removed,
and I was Permanently cured. I have enjoyed un
interrupted good health for the last fifteen months.
I am convinced that scrofula and mercurial disea
ses are entirely medicated from my system. I have
not had ache for more than a year past. Prior to my
using the Pulmonic Syrup, there was not a week
that - I.did not suffer day and night more or less the
most excruciating pains. lam confident if I had
used your Pulmonic Syrup before using the calomel
and mercury, it would have prevented all my suf
fering, and saved me several hundred dollars. I
am now, thank God, a perfectly w. 11 man, and at
tribute it entirely to your 4, Pulmonic Syrup.'
Wishing you every success in your business
which your truly valuable medicine entitles you to,
I am repectfully, your obd't serv't,

CHERRY PE
' For the rapid pore of
COUGHS, COLDS, HOARSICNESS;
BRONCHITIS, WHOOPING-COUGH,
CROUP, ASTHMA, AND
CONSUMPTION.
OF all the numerous meincines extant, (and
some of them valuable) for the cure of pul
monary complaint*, nothing have ever been found
which could compare in its effects with this prep
aration. Others cure sometimes, but at all times
and in all diseases of the lungs and throat where
medicine can give relief, this will do it. It is
pleasant to take, and perfectly safe in accordance
with the directions. We do not advertise for the
information of those who hare tried it but those
who have not. Families that have known its value
will not be without it,
and by its timely use, they
are secure from the danserous consequences of
Coughs and Celds which neglected, ripen into fatal
consumption.
The Diploma of the Massachusetts Institute was
awarded to this preparation by the Board of Judges
in September 1847; also, the Medals of the three
great Institute.. of Art, in this country; also the
Diploma of.the Ohio Institute at Cincinnati, has
been given to the CHERRY Pr.cronet, by their
Government in consideration of its extraordinary
excellence and unsefumess in curing affections of
the Lungs and Throat.
Read the following opinion founded on the ex
perience of the eminent Physicians of the Port and
City of ST. JOHNS, May 8, 1851.
Dr. J. C. Ayer,—Five years trial of CHERRY
PECTORAL in my practice, has proven what I fore
saw from its composition ' must be true, that it erad
icates' and cures the colds and coughs to which we,
in this section;, are peculiarly liable. „
I think its equal has not yet been discovered,
nor do I know bow a better remedy can be made
for the distempers of the Throat and Lungs.

more:—
Simi:limy Jan. 24th, 1861.
Dr. Ayer :—ln the month bf ? July last I was at
tacked by a violent diarrhma in the mines of Cali
fornia. I ret ,rued to San Francisca. in hope of re
ceiving benefit, from a change of climate and. diet.
My diarrcea ceased, but was followed by a severe
cough—and more soreness. I finally started for
home, but received no benefit from the voyage.—
My cough continued to grow worse, and when I
arrived . in New York, I was at once marked by my
acquaintances as a victim of consumption. I must
confess that I saw no sufficient reason to doubt
what my friends all believed. At this time I com
menced taking your truly invaluable medicine with
little expecthuon of deriving any benefit from its
use. You would not receive these lines did I not
regard it my duty to state to the afflicted, through
you, that my health, in the space 'Of eight months,
is fully restored. I attribute it to the use of your
Cherry Pectoral. - Yours truly, W

WHATEVER concerns the health and .happi
nese of a people[ a at all times of the moat
valuable importance. .1 take it for granted that ev
ery person will do all ,n their power, to save the
lives of their children and that every person will
endeavor to promote their own health at all sacri
fices I feel it to be my duty to solemnly assure
you that WORMS, according to the opinion of the
most m-lebrated Physicians, are the primary causes
of a large majority of diseases to which children
and adults are liable ; if you have an appetite con
tinually changeable irorn one kind of food to an
other, bad Breath, pain in the Sumach, picking at
the Nose, hardness and fullness of the Belly, i try
Cough, Slow Fever, Pulse irregular—remember
that all these denote WORMS, and you should at
once apply the remedy :
HOBENSACICS WORM SYRUP.
An article founded upon scientific principles,
compounded with purely vegetable subsutncee, be
ing perfectly safe when taken,and can be given to
the met tender Infant' with ecided bet.eficial ef
fect, where bowel complaints and diarrahata have
mrde them weak and debilitated, the tonic proper
ties of my Worm Syrup are sum., that it stands
without an equal in the catalogue of medicines in
giving tone and strength to the stomach, which
makes it an infallible remedy fur those affi.cted
with Dyspepsia, the astonishing cures performed ny
this Syrup after. Physicians have failed, is the best
evidence of its superior efficacy over all others.
THE TAPE WORN!
This is the moat difficult Worm to destroy of all
that infest the human system, it grows to an almost
indefinite length, becoming so coiled and fastened
in the intestines and stomach, effecting the health
so sadly as to cause St. Vitus Dance, Fits, 4-c.,
that those afflicted seldom if ever auspect,that it is
Tape Worm hastening them to an early grave.—
In order to iit•atroy this Worm, a very energetic
treatment must be pursued, it would therefore be
proper to take 6 or 8 of my Liver Pills so as to re
move all obseructions, that the Worm Syrup may
act direct upon the Worm, which must be taken in
doses of 2 tablespoonrulls 3 times a day—these di
rections followed have never been known to fail in
, curing the most obstinate case of Tape Worm.
HOBENSACK'S LIVER PILLS.
No part of the system is more liable to disease
than the LIVER, it serving as a filterer to purify
the blood, or giving the proper secretion to the
bile; so that any wrong action of the Liver effects
the other important parts of the system, and results
variously, in Liver Complaint, Jaundice, Dyspepsia,
4.c. We should, therefore, watch every symptom
that might indicate a wrong action of the Liver.—
These Pills being composed of Roots 4- Plants fur
nished by nature to . heal the sick: Namely, Ist,
An Expectorant, which augments the secretion
from the Pulmonary mucus membrane, or promote
the discharge of secreted matter. 2nd. An Alter
tioe, which changes in some inexplicable and in
visible manner the certain morbid action of the
system. 3rd. A Tonic; which gives tone and
strength to the nervous system, renewing health
and vigor to all parts of the body. 4th. A Cathar
tic, which acts in perfect harmony with the other
ingredients, and operating on the bowels and ex
pelling the whole mass of corrupt and vitiated
matter, and purifying the blood, which destroys
disease and restores health.
