rvaL epaTtlnent. The Dunkard Oil Region The growing home consumption of Petro leum, and the fact that the foreign demand is largely in excess of the supply, render the late discoveries and developments in the! Dunkard region of the first commercial im portance. We are honestly of opinion that when capital and enterprise shall have de veloped the lands along this creek, that lo cality w ill be found to compare, in the ex tent of its oil production, with the 'Vomit go district, while in the purity, gravity and value of the Oil, it is acknowledge) to be infinitely superior. Oar convictions on this subject are based on actual knowledge and observati . ni of both regions, and of the geo logical tiwmations and surface indications. We a r e gratitied to learn that we are not :alone in these favorable impressions and au guries. Scientific men, and experienced and practical Oil operators, concur in them, and Are investing liberally of their own means, And directing the attention of capitalists to the pnomising, character of the Dunkard country. Already several large companies have been organized in Pittsburgh and the and will soon commence operations on en extensive scale. In the mean time. in: (Evil:al energy and local enterprise aro do ing much to develop that favored locality.— New derricks spring up every few days, and tile process of sinking wells goes on in many instances without interruption, night or day. The Wiley well is still yielding largely, and the Pittsburgh papers inform us that the principal transactions in Crude Oil in that market last week were in Greene County Amber, which sold in large lots, at horn 421 to 44 cts. per gallon.

The scrofulous contamination is variously caused by mercurial disease, low living,-disordered digestion front unhealthy food, impure air, filth and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and, above all, by the venereal infection. Whatever be its origin, it is hereditary in the constitution, descending "from parents to children unto the third and fourth generation ; " indeed. it seems to be the rod of Him who says, " I will visit the iniqui ties of the fathers upon their children." The diseases which it originates take various names, according to the organs it attacks. In die lungs, Scrofula,produces tubercles, and finally Consumption; in the glands, swellings which suppurate and become ulcerous sores ; in the stomach and bowels, derangements which pro duce indigestion, dyspepsia, and liver com plaints; on the akin, eruptive and cutaneous affeetions. These all having the same origin. require the same remedy, viz. purification and invigoration of the blood. Purify the blood, and these dangerous distempers leave you. With feeble, foul, or corrupted blood, von can not have health ; with that " life of the flesh " healthy, you cannot have scrofulous disease. Ayer'a Sarsaparilla is compounded from the most effectual anti dotes that medical science has discovered for this afflicting distemper, and for the care of the disorders it entails. That it is far superior to any other remedy yet devised, is known by all who have given it a trial. That it does com bine virtues truly extraordinary in their effect upon this class of complaints, is indisputably proven by the great multitude of publicly known and remarkable cures it has made of the following diseases : King's Evil or Glandular Swellings, Tumors, Imp lions, Pimples, Blotches and Sores, Ery sipelas, Rose or St. Anthony's Fire, Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Coughs from . tuP berculous deposits in the lungs, White Swellings, Debility, Dropsy, Neuralgia, or Indigestion,fthilis and Syp • tic Infections, Mercurial Diseases, F e male Weaknesses, and, indeed, the whole series of complaints that arise from impurity of the blood. Minute reports of individual cases may be found in AYER'S AMERICAN ALMANAC, which is furnished to the druggists for gratuitous distribution, wherein may be learn t = directions for its use, and some of the -able cures which it has made when all other remedies had failed to afford relief. Those cases are purposely taken from all sec tions of the country, in order that every reader may have access to some one who can speak to him of its benefits from personal experience. Scrofula degreases the vital energies, and thus leaves its victims far more subject to disease and its fatal results than are healthy constitu tions. Hence it tends to shorten, and does greatlyshorten, the average duration of human life. The vast importance of these considera tions has led us to spend years in perfecting a remedy which is adequate to its cure. This we now offer to the public under the name of AYER'S SARSAPARILLA, although it is com posed of ingredients, some of which exceed the best of Sarsaparilla in alterative power. By its aid you may protect yourself from the suffer ing and danger of these disorders. Purge out the foul corruptions that rot and fester in the blood ; purge out the causes of disease, and vigorous health will follow. By its peculiar virtues this remedy stimulates the vital func tions, and thus expels the distempers which lurk within the system or burst out on any part of it. We know the public have been deceived by many compounds of Sarsaparilla, that promised much and did nothing ; but they will neither be deceived nor disappointed in this. Its virtues have been proven by abundant trial, and there remains no question of its surpassing excellence for the cure of the afflicting diseases it is in tended to reach. Although under the same name, it is a very different medicine from any other which has been before the people, and is far more effectual than any other which has ever been available to them. A.VMI:L'EI CHERRY PECTORAL, The World's Great Remedy for Coughs, Colds, Incipient Con• sumption, and for the relief of Consumptive patients in advanced stages of the disease. This has been so long used and so univec. sally known, that we need do no more than assure the public that its quality is kept up to the best it ever has been, and that it may be relied on to do all it has ever done.
