Ac., Ac. Indeed very few are the diseases in which a
Purgative Medicine is not more or less required, and inuch
sickness and suffering niight Is- prevented, if a harmless
but effectual Cathartic were more freely used. No per
son can feel well while a costive habit of body prevails ;
la-sides it soon generates serious and often fatal diseases,
which might have been avoided by the timely and judi
cious use of a good purgative. This is alike true of Colds,
Feverish symptoms, and Billions derangements. They
all tend to become or produce the deep seated and for
midable distempers which load the hearses all oer the
land. Hence a reliable family physic is of tiie lirst im
portance to the public health, and this Fill has la-en per
fected with consummate skill to meet that demand. An
extensive trial of its virtues by Physicians, Professors,
and Patients, lias shown results surpassing anything
hitherto known of any medicine. Cures have lieen ef
fected beyond belief, were they not substantiated bv per
son- of such exalted positions"and character as to forbid
the suspicion of untruth.
Among the eminent gentlemen who have testified in
favor of these Pills, we may mention :
I>oct. A. A. HAYIiS, Analytical Chemist of Boston,
and State Assaycr of Massachusetts, whose high Profes
sional character is endorsed by the—
Hon. KI)\VAIIP EVERETT, Senator of the United
States.
If MSKBT C. WINTIIROP, Ex-Speaker of the House of
Representatives.
ABBOTT LAWRENCE, Minister Plen. to England.
tJOHN B. FITZPATIUCK, Catholic Bishop ot Boston;
Dr. J. It. CIIILTOX, Practical Chemist of New York
City, endorsed by
lion. W. L. MAKCY, Secretary of State.
WM. B. ASTOR, the richest man in America.
S. ICELAND A Co., Proprietors of the Metropolitan
Hotel, and others.
Did space permit, we eonld give many hundred certi
ficates from all parts where the Pills have been used, but
evidence even more convincing than the experience of
eminent public men, is found in their effects upon trial.
These Pills, the result of long investigation and study,
are offered to the public as the best and most complete
which the present state of medical science can afford.—
They are compounded not of the drugs themselves.but of
the medicinal virtues only of Vegetable remedies extract
ed by Chemical process in a state of purity, and combin
ed together in such a manner as to insure the best results.
This system of composition for medicines has been found
in Cherry Pectoral and Pills both, to produce a more ef
ficient remedy than had hitherto been obtained by any
process. The reason is perfectly obvious. While br the
old mode of composition, every medicine is burdened with
more or !e-s of acrimonious and injurious qualities, by
this each individual virtue only that is desired for the cu
rative effect is present. All the inert and obnoxious
qualities of each substance employed are left behind, the
curative virtues only l-ing retained. Hence it is self
evident the effects should prove as they have proved,
more purely remedial, and the Pills a more powerful an
tidote to disease tliau any other medicine known to the
world.
I As it is frequently expedient that many medicines
should be taken under the umnst 1 of an attending Physi
cian, and as ho eonld not properly judge of a remedy
J without knowing its composition, 1 have suppled the ac
[ curate Formula: by which both my Pectoral and Pills arc
[ made, to the whole body of Practitioners in the United
States aim British American Provinces. If however there
should be any one who ha not received them, they will
j be forwarded by mail to his request.
Of all the Patent Medicines that are offered, how few
would be taken ii their composition was known ! Their
life consists in their mystery. I have no mysteries.
The composition of my preparations is laid open to all
inen, and all who are competent to judge ou the subject
freely acknowledge their convictions of their intrinsic
merits. The Cherry Pectoral was pronounced by scienti
fic men to tie a wonderful medicine before its effects were
known. Many eminent Physicians have declared the
same thing of my Pills, and even more confidently, and
are willing to certify that their anticipations were more
than realized l>y their effects upon trial.
They operate by their powerful influence on the inter
nal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate it into heal
thy action—remove the obstructions of the stomach, bow
els, liver, and other organs of the body, restoring their
irregular action to health, and by correcting, wherever
they exist, such derangements as are the first origin of
disease.

GREAT IMPROVEMENT IN WATER PIPE
CHAIN RUMP TURING.
r |MIK subscriber having lately commenced the niaiiufac-
L tare of WATER TUBING, at Wilkcs-Barre, Pa. with
WYCKOFF'S PATENT BORING MACHINE,
which produces the article so long sought after by Pump
Manufacturers and others, would call the attention of Rail
road Superintendents, Pump Dealers, Farmers, Village
Corporations and all others HI want of cheap and durable
Water Conductors, to the Pipes manufactured by this pro
cess. They are made from solid Pine and other scantling
from 3 to 6 inches square, according to size of bore and
pressure required, iu sections 6 feet long, with a socket
joint accurately fitted, both air and water tight. As Wy
ohofTs Machine bores directly through the centre every
time, the timber need only be large enough to sustain the
pressure wanted, as the smaller they are the more perfect
ly they become saturated with water, and the longerthey
will last when laid in the ground. It is a well-ascertain
ed fact that while the body or thick part of a pump log is
entirely decayed, the thin sharpened end will be sound :
at the same tune they never stop up from impurities of
the water or being flattened, are free from rust or poison
ous oxydes, lasting about as long as lead or iron, at only
one-sixth the cost.
The above-mentioned Pipes have been extensively and
thoroughly tested in most of the Northern States, for the
past two years, and wherever introduced they immediate
ly supersede all other kinds of Pipe or Chain Pump Tub
ing. Tliev can be made to stand any desirable bead of
water, and can be shipped to any part of the country with
safety and at small expense.

of Pat tons Drug Store,
"HAS jnst been opened with the largest and
JjQL most choice stock of FASHIONABLE
JEWELRY ever offered to a discriminating
jgl-—-/ 3) public. Indeed, he can safely say that with ;
Jim the opening of his new store has been iu
ySMfcS"l' antra rated a new era in the Jewelry line,
inasmuch as along with the choice and elegant assortment
he gives the most reliable assurance of an almost incredi
ble reduction in prices ; the rich and tasteful articles hav
ing been all bought with ready cash.
A. M. W., when he reflects how, for the part years.with
a far less attractive stock, he lias enjoyed so large a sluire
of public patronage, flatters himself tfiat the immense in- !
crease of floods he now offers, which have becu bought so
much more advantageously, will enable him to increase
the generous confidence which has hitherto been vouch- j
,-afed to him. He therefore solicits a continuance of the
favor of his old customers, and invites the public general- ■
ly to come and see the fashions.
air"THE WATCH REPAIRING DEPARTMENT will
continue to lie distinguished by the skill and despatch j
which has heretofore enabled it to eujov the enviable rep- \
utation of being the most reliable in town.
