How TO MAKE "HARD TIMES." — A good way to make "hard times" is to refuse to pay all bills although you have the inonev in your pocket—push men to pay you who haven't the money ; if a man don't meet your obligations just at the time they be come due, report that he is about to "bust;" cut down the wages of your*hainL before it is accessary ; keep-back everything from market until the prices get up at starvation i rates ; use money in speculations that you should pay your creditors with ; forget that unnecessary retrenchments increase hard times instead of bettering tlieiu ; carry a long face, aud talk mournfully of evils to come ; do these and other acts like them, and, "hard times" will surely come, liow- I ever little cause they may be for them. Every editor of a newspaper will j appreciate the truth of the following pas sage from the writings of Captain Maryutt. ; "It is not the writing of the leading arti- j eles every day or week, whether inclined or j not, in sickness or in health ; in ufiliction, | disease of the mind, winter and summer, ! year after year, tied down to the task, re- j maining in one spot. It is something like , the walking of a thousand hours. I have j a fellow-feeling, for I know how a periodi cal will wear down one's existence. In it self it appears nothing; the labor is not j manifest: nor is it the labor, but it is the continued attention which it requires, your life becomes, as it were the publication.

Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, For Diseases of tho Threat and Lungs, such as Coughs, Colds, Whoopiru ) Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma, and Consumption. Probably never before in the v. hole history of medicine, ous anything won ro widely and aoilecpiy upou die confidence of mankind, a- tliis excellent ! remedy for pulmonary complaint-. Tiirongli a long series "of years, and among most ol' the races or men it has risen higher and higher in their c-unm „ | tion, as it has become better known. Its tmiform character and power to cure the various affections [) of the lungs aiiu throat, have made it known a ■ 11 c j i liable protector against tlr*m. While adapted to milder forms of dueae and to young i hildreu, it is . at the same time the most cflectu.il remedy that can ' I begiven for incipient somsimllw, and the dan gerous affectionsof the thro.it and lungs. Asapro ) ! vision against sudden attacks of Croup, it should be kept on hand in every lamilv, and indeed as all . are sometimes subject to colds and coughs, all should be provided with this antidote for tliein. Although settled Consumption in thought in curable, still great numbers of cases where the dis ) ease seemed settled, have been completely cured, and the patient restored to sound health by the Chirr;/ Pectoral. So o mplfcte it its mastery . over tlie disorders of tbe Lungs and Throat, that ' the most obstinate of tin'in yi 'ld to it. IVbeii lioth -1 Ing else could reach them, under the Cherry Pcc ) ! toral they subside and disappear. Siiiyirn and Public Speakers Hud great pro -1 tection from it. Asthma is always relieved and often wholly j I cured by it. i | Bronchitis is generally enrol by taking tho Cherry Pectoral in small and frequent doses. ' 8o generally are its virtues known that we need not publish the certificates ol' tiieui here, or do more ) : than assure the public that Its qualities are fully I maintained. ; Ayer's Ague Cure, For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever, I j Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague, Periodical or Bilious Fever, &c., and indeed all the affections which arise from malarious, marsh, or miasmatio 1 poisons. i As its name implies, it does Cure, and does not fail. Containing neither Arsenic. Qnthirn-, Bismuth, Zinc, nor any other mineral or poisonous subitance whatever, it in nowise injures any patient. T. number and importance of its cures in tlie ague dis tricts, are literally beyond account, and we b .* >• without a parallel in (lie history of Ague medeune. Our pride is gratified by the acknowledgments v. e receive of the radical cures effected in obstinate , cases, and where other remedies bad wholly failed, j Unacclimated persous, either resident in, or I I travelling through miasmatic localities, Vill be pro ij tee ted by taking tlie AU VP CURE daily. 3 For hirer Complaint*, arising from torpidit- I of tlie Liver, it is nn excellent remedr, stimulating I the Liver into healthy activitv. I For Bilious Disorders and Liver Complaints, it is I an excellent, remedy, producing manv trulv r<- I markable cures, where other medicines had failed. I, Prepared by Du. J. C.
