Where this article is known it is a work of supereroga

as an unfailing remedy for Coughs, Colds, Bronchitis,
Croup, IVlsooping Cough, Asthma, Quinsy, Phthisic,
diseases of the Throat, Chest and Lungs, as well as that
: most dreaded of all diseases, Consumption, which high
medical authority has pronounced to be a curable disease.

who have not have but to make a single trial to be satis

Further Testimony.
OWBOO, Nov. 9, 1859.
Messrs. S. W. FOWLK k Co.,—
I Gentlemen Some ten years since I was attacked with
a severe and distressing cough, the long eoutintiance of
which alarmed me, and admonished me to look for sonic
remedy to rescue me from the dangerous condition in
which I found myself.
From what I had heard of IVistar's Balsam of Wild
Cherry. I concluded to give that preparation a trial,which
I did, and by its use obtained immediate aud permanent
relief. Again, about live years afterwards, I was taken
with a seveic hacking cough, accompanied with pain in
the chest and side, tickling in the throat etc., which so
reduced my health and strength as to unflt me for attend
ing to my ordinary business. I applied to well known
physicians and used their proscriptions without any per
ceptible benefit; when, alter having been confined to my
room for several months, 1 again had recourse to Wis
tar's Balsam, and, to my great joy, found, as before, im
mediate relief, and two bottles restored me to perfect
health.
I would also state that several of my friends have used
the Balsam with the same astonishing result.
1 have known of there being in the market a miserable
and worthless spurious Balsam. In ptirchasbi'ig, I al
ways look for that prepared by S. W. Fowle k Co., Bos
ton, which lias the written signature of /. Butts on tlio
wrapper ; and I would caution all, as tliey value health,
to do the same.
SIMEON MARQUART.
tIL Caution to Purchasers. The only ganuine Wis
tar's Balsam has the written signature of " 1. BUTTS,"
and the printed one of the Proprietors on the outer wrap
per ; all other is vile and worthless.

"O. death where is thy sting ? O, grave, where is thy
victory? Thanks lie to God who giveth us the victory
through onr Lord Jesus Christ." We appropriate this
language of the Apostle Paul for the departed in full
confidence. Not in deed for her in an exuitingly trium
pliant departure, but iu her entire preparedness for the
great change ; in the calm composure with which she
waited lor ihe coming diss .lotion. Yea, in her longing
! fir the coming ol that messenger that was to bear her to
! her Savior's presence. In the long continued and severe
I suflerings through which she was called to pass, the reli
' gi in ol j (--.us afforded her those comforts and consola
! tions which it alone can give. In the dark and trying
hour her faith failed her not—and a few days less than
! two years from the time of low union with Christ's
j Church Militant on earth, with a mind in perfect peace
I and full of hope, she was removed to her place in the
ranks of the ch irch triumphant in Heaven. We weep
j and mourn, but not as those who have no hope. We
[ suffer loss, but to her the change is great gain. She has
i gone to Iter everlasting reward, to a rest that shall never
' l e broken—to joys that shall never cease. And through
j our tears, we write " Blessed are the dead who die in the
| Lord -for thev rest from their labors aud their works do
; follow them'" [COM.

! per, aged 3d years.
By the death of lIKNRY, community has lost one of its
most worthy members ; parents have been deprived of
i an anticipated stay and support in their declining years :
• and brothers aud sisters mourn the departure of one
: bound to them by the most eudearing of affectionate
! tics.
" Behold the western evening light !
It melts in deeper gloom ;
So calm the righteous sinks away,
Descending to the tomb.
The winds breathe low—the yellow leaf
Scarce whispers from the tree !
So gently fl.,ws the parting breath
Vi heu good men cease to be."
A good man has ceased to be as an earthly being, yet
by the truths given to the world it may be said iu reality
that though earth has lost, Heaven has gained.
" Brother, rest from e in and sorrow ;
Death is o'er and life is won ;
On thy slumber dawns no morrow :
Rest ; thine earthly race is run.
Brother, wake : the night is waning ;
Endless day is round thee poured ;
Enter thou the rest remaining
For the people of the Lord." [Cog.
In Owego, X. Y., of Pleurisy, on the 14th day of Feb.
Isill, in tlie bstli year of her age, Mrs. SKI.IN A, relict
ol late Joseph C. I'owcll, Esq., of Towauda.
Th- deceased first came to this county from Vermont
1 about the year I*l7, the wife of Mr. VESPASIAN ELLIS
j In a few years he was called away by death, and she was
left with two daughters, both of whom survive to mouru
; the death of one of the best of mothers.
Some time atter Mr. Kl.l.is' death she was married to
Mr. I'OWKI.L and came to reside iu this place. A son
and two daughters by the late marriage mingle their
1 tears with the above mentioned in this bereavement. To
: these mourners, wc may add. tiie children of Mr. POW
ELL. by a former marriage, who were won bv her excel
lencies to regard bcr as worthy ol their affections as a i
, mother.
We find a letter from the congregational church in
News'.m, Vt ,of Oct. 1523, recommending her to chris
t an fellowship and connection with the church in this
pla-e. Hie was one of the original sixteen that formed
the fir t Presbyterian church in Towauda, of which she
| remained a member till death.
The church in Xewsom was then under the charge of
the Rev. (.'handler Bates. The letter was in the name of
SKI.INA PHILLIPS, her family name, showing that she
; cast in her lot with the people of God in her early youth,
j She lived to adorn her christian profession.
in consequence of the illness of the pastor her fur.eral
j was attended by a neighboring clergyman. The follow
! ing is the very brief address to tbe lriends from the pas
tor. which was read on the occasion :
" The pastor of this church considers it a chastisement
from God, that he is unable to be present at this time—
| It is now over thirty-three years since he made the
acquaintance of the deceased, and the high opinion he
at first formed of her intelligence, refinement and purity,
was heightened by subsequent acquaintance and inter
course. Her life, in which the graces of the spirit shone
with peculiar brightness may well aflord you consola
tion now. It speaks of that better world for which she
was preparing, to which she was hastening, and where
we doubt not. she is now enjoying the rest that remains
for the peop'e of (iod.
She became a follower of the Truth. She not only re
ceived the sacred scriptures as the truth of God, she re
ceived Jesus Clu ist as the Great Central Truth, or as
Himelf says : " The vyay, the Truth anfl the Life.
We feel constrained to say. Be ye followers of her,
even as she was of Christ Jesus, that you may he reunit
ed in another family circle that shall never be broken
up."
" Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord."
