A few perhaps are still left in the nation—but in our owe S.atc- lie was almost, i( not quite, the last representative o! that class ot men, who living through the troublous time* of JACKS, N'S administration, were fully rewardic by knowing that their firmness and honesty had earnee iorthein the respect and gratitude of the nation.

But their worst apprehensions were realized in bis sudden death, not among strangers, for he was we knowi' nd respected where he died.

ANTHONY'S I KIKE, aud indeed the whole class of complaints arising I Iroin IMPRUITY op THE BLOOD. This compound wi 1 be found a great proindter of } health, when taken in the spring, to expel the foul hu mors which fester in the blood at. that season of the year. | By the litnely expulsion of them many rankling disor j ders are nipped in the bud. Multitudes can by the aid I of tiiis remedy, spare themselves from the endurance Ot tout eruptions and ulcerous sores, through which the system Will strive to rid itself of corruptions, if not as sisted to do this through the natural channels ot the body by an alterative medicine. Cleanse out the vitiated blood whenever you tinu its impurities bursting through 1 the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores ; cleanse it when you lind it is obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it whenever it is foul, and your feelings will tell you when. Even where no particular disorder is felt, people enjoy better health, and live longer, for cleansing the blood. Keep the blood healthy, and all is well ; but with this pabulum of life disordered, there can be no j lasting health. Sooner or later something must go | wrong, and the great machinery of life is disordered or overthrown. Sarsaparilla has. and deserves much, the reputation, lof accomplishing these ends. But the world has been i egregio'nsly deceived by preparations of it, partly because { the drug alone has not all tiic virtue that is claimed for it, but more because many preparations, pretending to be j concentrated extracts of if, contain but little of the vir | tue of Sarsaparilla. or any tiling else. During late years the public have been misled by large j bottles, pr-.tending to give a quart of Extract ot Kaiet- J parilfa for one dollar. Most, of these have been frauds | upon the sick, for they not only contain little, if any, j Sarsaparilla, butofteu no curative properties whatever. | Hence, bitter and | uiniul disappointment lias followed | the use of Hie various extracts of Sarsaparilla which | Hood the market, until the name itself is justly despised, j and has become synonymous with imposition and cheat. , Still we call this compound Sarsaparilla, and intend to I supply such a remedy as shall rescue the name from the j load of obloquy which rests upoh it. And we think we have ground for believing it has virtues which are ir resistable by tho ordinary run of the diseases it is intend ed to erne. In order to secure their complete eradica tion from the system, the remedy should be judiciously taken according to directions on the bottle. Prepared by Dr. J.t'.
