Heavy Failures.
We regret to learn of the suspension on
Wednesday, cf the extensive railroad-iron
manufacturers, Reeves, Buck & Co., and
Reeves, Abbot, & Co., of Pbila. Their lia
bilities are about $BOO,OOO, and their assetts
from two to two and a half millions. In order
to meet all their liabilities of every character,
these firms only ask an extension of time, and
there is little doubt that this will be granted.
It will be recollected that some three years ago,
under a sudden and severe money pressure,
these firms were compelled to suspend, and
obtained an extension. Since then they have
paid the whole ot those obligations, principal
and interest. These firms it is known, are the
proprietors of the extensive Iron works at
Phceuixville, £jnd employ about 3000 men,
making about 100 tons of Railroad iron per
day; while their payments are about $lO,OOO
per day. They are also the proprietors of the
Safe Harbor Iron Works, in this county. It
is understood that the works will be continued
in operation.
The Sugar Trade. —The fall in the value of
sugar and molasses has been great within a
few weekH past. The losses on the stocks on
hand must have been many millions of dol
lars to dealers in this country, and much
more to foreign holders'. The Boston Trav
eler says ;
The decline from the highest point is now
over 3 cents a pound, and there is a strong
probability that bottom is not yet half reached.
When the decline had reached only one half
the present amount a few weeks since, the
New York Independent estimated that on the
stock of 85,000 tons of sugar and four million
gallons of molasses, held in that port alone,
the loss was then fully three and a half mil
iiuu dollars. Of course it must he double that
now, and if this loss is made on that stored in
New York alone, what must it be on the vast
quantits afloat, in store in Europe and in the
U. Static, and the stocks on'haud in the sugar
exporting countries. It cannot be less than
fifty millions of dollars already, and as the
tendency is steadily downward, it will proba
bly reach a hundred millions before the deal
ers will bo able to touch the next crop.
Famine In Africa.
Information has,been received at the Metho- \
dist Episcopal Mission Rooms in this city, j
that there are apprehensions of a general ;
failure in Liberia ; that already several of the j
poorer people have died of starvation ; that •
some of the missionaries on the country sta
tions are without any other food than green
plums, and that around some of the settlements
the natives nre cutting down the palm trees,
for the sake of the palm cabbage to sustain
life. One of the missionaries there remarks
that this state of things has been coming upon
them for years, and attributes if mainly to
three causes, first, the great number of idle
and worthless persons in the community, who
will not work and who live by beggary ; sec
ond, that this class of persons is constantly
increased by the immigration from the United
States, numbers of the immigrants consuming
a great deal and producing nothing; and third,
to the failure of the native rice crops several
years ago, owing in part to a bad season, but
mainly to the natives 7 “ general attendance
upon the Devil Bush when they should have
Ibeen upon their farms. They have never
■been able to recover themselves. What rice
ihas been gathered for a year or two past has
toot been enough for food, so they have saved
none for sowing/ 7
This is a gloomy prospect, and the missionary
who gives the information—the Rev. J. Horne
—predicts a yet worse condition of thing, and
that “ the end of allthingsoutthereisathand
The dintreso does not seem to be confined to
the natives, for he commences his account in
the words : “ We in the republic have been
and are in a fearful condition for want of food,
at some points worse than at other.”— N. 3”.

CATHARTIC PILLS
OPERATE by their powerful Influence on the
internal viscera to purify the blood and stimu
late it into healthy action. They remove the
obstructions of the stomach, bowels, fiver, and other
organs of the body, and, by restoring their irregular
action to health, correct, whereTer they exist, such
derangements as are the first causes of disease.
An extensive trial of their virtues, by Professors,
Physicians, and Patients, has shown cures of dan
gerous diseases almost beyond belief, were they not
substantiated by persons of such exalted position
and character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth.
Their certificates are published in my American
Almanac, which the Agents below named are
pleased to furnish free to all inquiring.
Annexed we give Directions for thur use in the
complaints which they have been found to cure.
For CosTrvBNESS. Take one or two Pills, or
such quantity as to gently move the bowels.
tiveneßs is frequently the aggravating cause of
Piles, and the cure of one complaint Is the cure
of both. No person can feel well while under a
costive habit of body. Hence it should be, aa it
can be, promptly relieved.
For Dyspepsia, which is' sometimes the cause
of Costivmess, and always uncomfortable, take mild
doses from one to four to stimulate the stomach
and liver into healthy action. They will do it, and
the heartburn, bodybum , and soulbum of dyspepsia
will rapidly disappear. When it has gone, don't
forget what cured you.
For a Foul Stomach, or Morbid Inaction of tbs
Barrels, which produces general depression of the
■spirits and bad nealth, take from four to eightPiUs
,>.t first, and smaller doses afterwards, until activity
and strength is restored to the system.
Fou Nervousness, Sick Hbadachb, Nausea,
P<un in the Stomach, Back, or Side , take from four
tn eight pills on going to bed. If thdY do not oper
ate sufficiently, take more the next day until they
do. These complaints will be swept out from the
system. Don’t wear these and their kindred dis
orders because j’our stomach is foul.
For Scrofula, Erysipelas, and all Disease*
af the Skin, take the Pills freely and frequently, to
keep the bowels open. The eruptions will gener
ally soon begin to diminish and disappear. Many
dreadful ulcers and sores have been healed up by
the purging and purifying effect of these Pills, and
some disgusting diseases which seemed to saturate
the whole system have completely yielded to their
influence, leaving the sufferer in perfect health
Patients! your duty to society forbids that you
should parade yourself around the world covered
with pimples, blotches, ulcers, sores, and all or any
of the unclean diseases of the skin, because your
lystem wants cleansing.
To Purify the Blood, they are the best medi
cine ever discovered. They should be taken freely
and frequently, and the impurities which sow the
seeds of incurable diseases will be swept out of the
system like chaff before the wind. By this property
they do os much good in preventing sickness as by
the remarkable cures which they are making every
where. ~
Liver Complaint, Jaundice, and all Bilious
A factions, arise from some derangement either
torpidity, congestion, or obstructions of the Liver.
Torpidity and congestion vitiate the bile and render
it unfit for digestion. This is disastrous to the
health, and the constitution is frequently under
mined by no other cause. Indigestion is the symp
tom. Obstruction of the duct which empties the
bile into the stomach causes the bile to overflow
into the blood. This produces Jaundice, with a
long and dangerous train of evils. Costdveness,or
alternately costiveness and diarrhma, prevails.
Feverish symptoms, languor, low spirits, weariness,
restlessness, and melancholy, with sometimes in
ability to sleep, and sometimes great drowsiness;
sometimes there is severe pain in the side; the skin
and the white of the eyes become a greenish yellow;
the stomach acid; the bowels sore to,the touch;
the whole system irritable, with a tendency to fever,
which may turn to bilious fever, bilious colic, bilious
diarrhtca, dysentery, &c. A medium dose of three
or four Pills taken at night, followed by two or three
in the morning, and repeated a few days,will remove
the cause of all these troubles. It is wicked to suffer
such pains when you can cure them for 25 cents.
Rheumatism, Gout, and all Inflammatory Fe
vers, are rapidly cured by the punfying effects of
these Pills upon the blood and tho stimulus which
they afford to the vital principal of Life. For these
and' all kindred complaints they should be taken m
mild doses, to move the bowels gently, but freely.
As a Dinner Pill, this is both agreeable and
useful. No Pill can be made more pleasant to take,
and certainly none has ocen made more effectual to
the purpose for which a dinner pill is employed.
