The spirit of Slavery is the great on

spirit that has evoked the martial spirit
of the North. It is that spirit we have to
comfort, not as a venture, but as a i.act;
not a dream, but a truo reality; not as a
false friend, but as a most determined
foe. The question is oDe of life and death
for Freedom in our country aud the
xorld. It is that question we have now
to decide. This spirit has coiled its folds
around the nock of the JNortb; it now
etands confronting us. We have caught
it by the neok, but shall we hold it while
it slides through our feeble grasp, and at
last fires its fanes in our face! Or shall

" I am hnppy to say of your Cathartic Pills, that I
have found them a better family medicine, for common
use, than any other within my knowledge. Many of my
friends havo realized marked benefits from them, and co
incide with me in believing that they possess extraordinary
virtues for driving out di?eaes nnd curing the sick. They
aro not only effectual, but safe and pleasant to bo taken
qualities which mujt mako them valued by the public,
when they aro known."
The venerable Chancellor WARDLAW write3 from Bal
timore, 15th April, 165! :
"Dr. J. C. Aver Sir: I liavo taken your Tills with
great benefit, for tho listlessness, languor, loss of appetite,
and Bilious headache, which" has of late years overtaken
me in the spring. A few doses of your Pills cured me. I
have used your Cherry Pectoral many years iu my family
for couchs and colds with inifailine success. You mako

you for the good you havo done and are doing."

Pills. I am never without them in mv family, nor shall I
ever consent to be, while my means will procure them."
The widely renowned S. S. STEVENS. M. D., of Went-

" Having used j our Cathartic Pills in mv nractice. T
certify from experience that they are an invaluable purga
tive. In cases (if disordered functions of tho liver, causing
headache, indigestion, enstu-eness, and the great variety
of diseases that follow, they aro a surer remedy than any
other. In all cases where a purgative remedy is required,
I confidently recommend thsse Pills to the public, as
superior to any other I havo ever found. They are sure
in their operation, and perfectly safe qualities which
make them an invaluablo article for public use. I have
for many years known your Cherry Pectoral as the best
Cough medicine in the world ; and thee Pills are in no
wise inferior to that admirable orenarntiim for-the treat
ment of diseases."

to a friend for costiveness, which had troubled him for
months ; he told me in a few days they had cured him.
You make the best medicine iu the world ; and I am free
to say so."
Read this from the distinguished Solicitor of the Supreme
uourt, wriose nriitiant anilities nave mane nun well
known, not only in thisbut tho neighboring States.
"JVVio Orleans. 5th JprU, 1854.
"Sir: I have great satisfaction In assuring you that
myself and family have been very much benifiied by your
medicines. My wife was cured, two years since, of a se
vere and dangerous' cough, by "your Cherry Pectoral,
and since then has enjoyed perfect health. My children
have several times been cured from attacks of the Influ
enza and Croup by it. It is an invaluable remedy for
these complaints. Your Cathartic Pills have entirely
cured me from a dyspcp&ia and costiveness, which has
grown upon me for some years, indeed, this cure is
much mnie important, from the fact that I had failed to
get relief from the best Physicians which this seciion of.
the country affords, and from any of the numerous reme
dies I had taken.
" You seem to us, Doctor, like a providential blessing
to our family, and you may well suppose we are not un
mindful of it. Yours respectfully,
LEAViTT THAXTER."
" Senate Chamber, Ohio, April 5th, 1854.
" Dr. J. C. Ater Honored Sir: I have made a thor
ough trial of the Cathartic Pills, left me by your agent,
and have been cured by them of the dreadful Rheumatism
under which he found me suffering. The first dose re
lieved me, and a fow subsequent doses hao entirely
removed the disease. I feel in better health now than for
some years before, which I attiibuto entirely to the effects
of your Cathartic Pills. Yours with great respect,
LUCIUS Ii. METCALK."
