high authority, that Professor Webster lias
written a letter to the Governor and Council,.
confessing that he killed Dr. Parkman. but
that it was not a murder, and praying that
his sentence may be commuted. The letter,
though long, does not, it is said, give the

probably be before the Council next Tues

CURE FOR BAD FITS.—Not by any pa

will call and examine his slock of coats,
pants, vests, and othor articles of dress at the
lower door of the now Exchange Block near

IV~ To the citizens of Columbia
Read what others say of the virtues of
Dr. Keeler's Cordial & Cariniinative.
For tho speedy cure of Diarrhrca, Dysen
tery, Cholora Infantum, Cholera Morbus, all
summer complaints, Cholic, Flatulency, and
all derangements of the stomach and bow
els from teething, &e.
Thousands die annually with diseases of
tho stomach and bowels from neglect. A
mong tho numerous remedies both public &
private, recommended for the above diseases
nona arc equal to tho Cordial. Years ot ov
perience ami trials made with it in hundreds
of cases, superadded to tho voluntary testi
mony tiom physicians and others, gives it a
character not to be unheeded by those chcr
ishing the welfare of themselves and chil
dren. Speedily subduing the pain and in
flammatory tendency, allaying irritability of
the stomach, and constraining unhealthy e
vacualions, us operation is prompt and ef
fectual.
That it will cure, and has cured, the worst
form of disease of tho stomach and bowels,
read the following evidence :
Philadelphia, June 1, 1849.
Dr. J. N. Keeter —l received your note this
morning asking for information as to tho dis
tribution I mado of tho package of cordial
you put into my possession while in com
mand of the U. Slates transport during the
Mexican war According to your direction a
part was distributed in Vera Cruz, the other
I kept for the use of my seamen and others
on board, beliving I should have use for it,
as I had on board frequently from one to
three hundred persons, and that many when
leaving Mexico would he on the sick list,—
Such was the fact, for Dysentery and Diarr
hoea extensively prevailed ; I used the cor
dial freely, and in not a single instance do I
recollect of its having failed to cure. My
own crew would often be attacked with Di
arrhoea, Dysenterry, &o, peculiar to nearly
all after getting on shore and eating fruit and
vegetables ; in all such cases the cordial did
not fail to cure speedily
When in New Orleans, a friend informed
me of a Philadelphia gentleman, S Church;
man Esq, who was sick with the
and despaired of by his doctor I mention
ed having a bottle or so of your cordial I
I sent it to him, and in a few days I had the
pleasure of seeing him well, I can give you
many names and testimonials of the efficacy
of your cordial if necessary. I have given
it to one ship master of this port, in particu
lar Capt Whipple, ship Monongahelu, and he
informed me he would not be without it I
think it is the 6afest and best medicine that 1
have ever known to bo used in affections of
the stomach and bowels.
I remain yours respectfully,
D D Wilcox, 288 S Eighth street
Davisville, Bucks co, Aug 25, 1847
Dear Sir—l am now prepared to recom
i mend your cordial from having used it with i
success in several instances, and I am now |
trying your Sa-saparilla Panacea in a case of i
protracted debility, attended with cough, ap- \
parently produced in the young lady by her :
'outgrowing her strength,' to use a commou I
phrase. Yours. A EARLE, M D :
From the Upland Union.
We are as little disposed as most persons
to encourage appeals to law or medicine, but
with all the legerdemain of the first, and tho
ignorance and quakery of the last, appeals
must occasionally be made to both. The
excessive heat and the accompaning pro
ductions of the season are already producing
Diarrhea, Dysentery and t holera Infantum,
complaints which it not promptly relieved
produce great debility and frequent death.
From a knowledge of its beneficial effects,
we refer to Dr. Keeler's Cordial and Crrmin
ative," advertised in this paper. Dr. Keeler
is a "physician of intelligence, skill, and large
practice, and if the remedies and commen
dations of medical authority are to be de
pended on the adove named article will be
found useful in the complaints referred to.
Cy Also Dr. Keeler's Sarsaparilla, a med
icine of great efficacy id freeing the system
from all diseases arising ffom impurities of
the blood. In chronic diseases of the chest,
stomach, liver and skin it is of great benefit.
Females suffering with nervous debility loss
of appetite, costiveness, pains of the chest,
functional obstructions will find a positive
cure in the Sarsaparilla. ES?" See pamphlets.
