THE GREATEST
MEDICAL DISCOVERY
OF THE AGE,
Ba. KENNEDY, of Rcxbury, has discovered in on#
of our common pasture xottds a remedy that cures
EVERY KIND OF HUMOR,
From the worst Seroflula down ,to a common pimple.
He has tried It In over 1100 cases, and never failed except
in two cases, (both thunder humor). He has now in his
posse&ldri tWer two hundred certificates-of' its: virtue, all'
within twenty miles of Boston.
Two bottles are warranted to cure n nursing sore mouth.
One to three bottles will cure the worst kind of Pimples
on the face.
Two to three bottles will clear the system of Biles;
Two bottles are warranted to cure the worst Canker in
the Mouth and Stomach.
Three to five bottles are warranted to curd the worst case
of Erysipelas.
One to two bottles are warranted to cure all glamor in
the Eyes.
Two bottles are warranted to cure Running of the Ears
and Blotches among the Hair.
Four to six bottles are warranted to cure Corrupt and
Running Ulcers.
One bottle will cure Scaly Eruption of the Skin.
Two to three bottles are warranted to curs the worst case
of Ringworm. a.
Two to threv bottles are.warranted to cure the most des
perate case of Rheumatism.
Three to four bottles are warranted to cure the Salt
Rhanm.
Five to eight bottles will care the worst ease of Scrofala.
A benefit is always experienced from' the first bottle, and
a perfect care is warranted when the above quantity is
taken.
Header, I peddled over a thousand bottles of this in the
vicinity of Boston. I know the effect of It in every case
So sure as water will extingalah fire, so sure will this cure
hnmor. I never sold a bottle of it but that sold another;
after a trial, it always speaks for itself. There are two
things about this herb that-appear to me surprising : first,
thatit grows la our pastures, in some places, quite plenti
ful, and yet its value has never been known until I discov
ered it in ISlS—second, that it should core all kinder of
humor.
In order to give some Idea of the sadden rise and great
popularity of the diaoovery, I,will state that in April, 1853,
I peddled it and sold about six bottles per day—in April,
1854, r sold over one thousand bottles per day of it.
gome of the wholesale druggists, who have been in busi
ness twenty and thirty years, say that nothing In the annals
of patent medicines was ever like It. There is a universal
praise of It from all quarters.
In my own practice I always kept it strictly for humors,
but since its introduction as a general family medicine,
great and wonderful virtues have been found in it that 1
never suspected.
Several cases of epileptic fits—a disease whloh was always
considered Incurable—have been cured by a few bottles. O,
what a mercy if it will prove effectual in all cases of that
ewfal malady; there are but few who have seen more of
It than I have.
-1 know of Eeveral cases of Dropsy, ail of them aged peo
ple, cured by It. For the various diseases of the liver, Sick
Headache, Dyspepsia, Asthma, Fever mid Ague, Pain in the
Side, Diseases of the Spine, and particularly in Diseases of
the Kidneys, Ail, the discovery nos done more good than
any medicine ever known.
No change of diet ever necessary. Eat the best yon get,
and enough of it.
Direction* for Ge.— Adults, one table Bpoonful per day.
Children over ten years, dessert spoonful. Children from
five to eight years, tea spoonfed. As no directions can be •
applicable to all constitutions, take sufficient to operate os
the bowels twice a day.

GOV- REEDER’S REMOVAL.
Memorial from the Legislature of Kansas
to the President of the United States.
To Ms Excellency Franklin Pierce, President of
the United States: '
The undersigned, ’ your memorialists, mem
bers of the Connell and House Of Representa
tives of the Territory of Kansas, respeotfully
represent that a crisis has at length arrived 1 In
the affaire of this Territory, whioh makes itita
; perative that you should interpose, so that oar
Goverment (the wheels of whioh have been drag
ging so heavily heretofore, and whioh have at
last come to a stand,) may bo relieved of the
olog which has been attached to it, and be ena
bled to move onoe more in its regular conrso.
A brief history of our Territory, written and
unwritten, since Its organization, will enable you
to See the oauses which have conduced to this
end; and the remedy being in your own hands,
we trust and believe yon will not hesitate imme
diately to apply it. :; : ' .
On the 30 th of May, 1854; (more than one
year einoe,) the bill opening the Territory” for
settlement west of Missouri and lowa was patted.
The pnbllo ezolted by the glowing desbrlptioii of
those who bad been in the Territory, and by the
debates In Congress, regarding the future politi
cal destiny of this newly opened country, imme
diately roshed in by thousands from every
quarter of our wide spread Union,
No Territory ever organized by this Govern
ment has beea peopled with half the rapidity of
this, , save California, owing to the unnatural
stimulus above alluded to. A people thus nu
merous—thus diversified from birth, education,
previous associations and present intentions and
objeats—required, it seems to us, for their gov
erment the most prompt action on the part of
those called on to preside over them. From the
month of May until October, there were no offi
cers here; the Governor appointed to organize
the Territory, under the provision of the bill,
arriving in the latter month. So soon as it was
ascertained, by rumor, that he had arrived,.j(tor
he has never in any way made it pnbllo) it Was
presumed that ho would immediately order the
census of the Territory to be taken, an eleotion
for members of the Legtslatlve Assembly to be
held, and call them together at onoe, so that
laws might be enaot'ed for the preservation of the
pnblio peace, and weal.
Bat what was the course pursued 6y that offi
cial ? 1 r
The citizens of our Territory received him
With open arms, and even in Missouri, the State
bordering on our line, he /was tendered a sap
per on the day of hie arrival, to enable him to
meet with the distinguished gentlemen of .that
section of Missouri, together with the private
citizens of the vicinity. Received thus frankly
and cordially, both in Kansas and on the border,
urged time and again to provide for the eleotibn
of a Legislature—tbo people knowing of no laws
in force, and the Governor himself haviog no
Bettlcd opinion upon the eubjeot—appointing tho
Justices of the Peace in various sections of the
Territory, some of whom enforced the Pennsyl
vania, some of the Ohio, and some the Missouri
oode, noting as a matter of fourae undor his in
| atruotions—still, with all these various impera
' tive necessities urging his compliance, he heed
ed them not, but assumed himself to act as the
lawmaking power, by prescribing the various
codes above, and usurping the power of the Ju
iciary in issuing writs, and sitting as an examin
ing Court upon a charge of "assault with intent
to kill,” tho prisoner being at the time incarcer
ated within the walls of a prison, and before.dis
ohargihg him demanded hiß reoognizanoe, whioh
was taken, however, by a Judge, whose district
had as yet not been assigned him.
In the midst of all this confusion, turning
coolly from those who had thus warmly weloomed
him, associating with those only from one par
ticular section of the Union, persisting in not
adopting that coutsb which alone could produoe
order from this chaos it is not singular that loud
complaining ohould be hoard, and that sinister
motives should be attributed to him for hig con
duct.
The Governor then commenced his course of
speculation, beginning by arraying himself di
reotly in opposition to the opinions of the Gen
eral Goverment, as expressed, by. the Attorney
General, in relation to Delawaro lands,|by pur
chasing property on those lands, and stating
that the opinions of the law bffiaer of the Gener
al Goverment were inoorreot, and of no force if
oorreot; thus setting an example of Insubordi
nation to thoso less informed, audwhleh may
end in a conflict between the people of this Ter
ritory and tho General Goverment, unless' the
rights of the squatters on those lands are reoog
nized in conducting the sales of them.
He then commences a tour of observation
through the Territory, for the ostensible purpose
of preparing for a census, &c., bat which, from
his subsequent conduct, proved to be only one
of speanlation, for he wag known td.be a share
holder in many of the various town companies
throughout tho Territory.. Finally, in the month
of February, when the snow was two feat in
depth, he orders a census to bo taken, (the her
culean task which had eo alarmed h)in,) and it
was so taken in about three weeks, under the
unfavorable circumstances above stated, . 0
A proclamation waa then issued for an election
of members to the Legislative Assembly, to be
held on the 30th March, .1355, saidproclamation'
containing a section olaiming, by the. Governor,
the right to deoide contested election,s thereby
olaiming the right, to overrido the will of the
people, as expressed through the ballot-box, and
to fill the Legislature with whomsoever he ohose'
—virtually disfranchising every man in Kansas
Territory and also enacting a Maine Liquor Law,
providing for the destruction of liquor.riudsr
certain oiroumatanoes. '■
After the contest was over and the resnlt
known, he delayed the assembling of the body
until the 2d day'.of July, more than three
months afterwards, and that too whenthe whole
Union was convulsed on account of -alleged
outrages In Kansas territory, and yet no." law
for the punishment or prevention of 'them.
When at last they did meet upon the call of the
Governor, at a point whore they, had previously
in an informal manner protested against . being
oalled with on avowal of their intentions to ad
journ to the point at which they are now assem
bled, for the reason that tho accommodations
could not be had; were thero were no facilities
for communicating with their families or constit
uents; where they oould not even find the oom
inoh food to eat, unless at an enormous expense,
there being no gardens yet made by tho aqua?
tore;, where, tho house in which wo were oxpeoted
to assemble had no roof or door, on the. Saturday
preceding the Monday of Our assembling, and
for the completion of whioh tho entire Sabbath
day and night was doseorated: by tho continued
labor of tbs meobanies who
* * « . * * * . f . .
And men who had assembled there for busi
ness or otherwise, had to oarnp out in wagons
and tents daring a rainy, hot season, and chole
ra broke out as a consequence of the inadequate
food and shelter,and where, under all these cir
cumstances of annoyance, they finally passed an
aot adjonrning to thia point, where ample ac
commodations are provided,, and where the Gov
ernor himself previously made it theseatof Gor
erment, they wore met by bis veto, whioh is
herewith transmitted. The bill was reeonaidered
by the House in whioh it originated, and passed
by the majority prescribed "by tho organlo
aot, then noted upon by tho other Honse. and
also passed by the same prescribed majority, *
oopy of whioh proceedings is herewith transmit
ted. Upon our assembling at this point in ac
cordance with a ooDcurreut resolution, passed
ond contemplated by the law,!transmitted to you,
we passed various bills, whioh were sent to the
Governor for his approval.
Ou the 21st July he returned the bills with
bis objections to signing them, (ell - of which we
herewith transmit) addressed to the "House of
Representatives of Kansas Territory,” and. “ to
the Counoil of the Territory of Kansas,’.’ respect
fully—by whioh he assumes that we are not the
“ House of Representatives of Kansas Terri
tory,” nor the " Council of tho Territory of
Kansas,” whiob, to say the least of it, is a gl*"
ring inconsistency, yet not more so than .the
rest of the doohment, which" you will, .bJTtoSJ
by reading the points made by him.
briefly state them, without argument, to enow
their utter fallaoy, so shown by himself, as "we
are confident that you will perceive them at a
