of life conveys 3000 lbs. of nutrition to the
various tissues, and at the same lime ex

system. Scientific research into the na
ture and phenomena of disease demon
strates lhat four-fifths of the disorders
which aflict the human race spring Irom
th'w 'prolific source when in a vitiated or
depraved condition. From careful analysis
of human blood at different periods D. Hoi

trata the vital fluid first by his Pills to
J cleanse it ol the humors which give origin
to the external disorder, while applications
of his Ointment are used outwardly to re
move the blemishes from the surface. This
is the simple and rational treatment em
iployed by Dr. Holloway in all the above
named affectons. With the innumerable
certificates in his possesion from all parts
of the world, and the increasing popularity
of these preparations, he challenges the un

other medicine which will effect ihe same
radical and permanent cures or all skin dis

vegetable Pills and balsamic Ointment.
These remedies are'eonveyed by the circu

sore or virulent ulcer is quickly cured : the
Pills 'cause foul humors to suppurate and
discharge, while the Ointment acting exter
nally, does its work in a most suprising

Bilitary Parade.
The military parade which came off. on
Saturday last, . at Orangeville, was quite a
fine affair. There were representatives of
eight companies present, bul no one com
pany with its full compliment ol men ; ana
we believe but two companies muy organ
ized onder the laws of ibe Slate. . In the al-
ternooa H R. Kline, Brigade Inspector, took
ihe companies under, his command and
marched them into a field, where he dnlle-
i j i -1
ihem for an hour or iwo won a aoou ue. u.
satisfastion to boih the companies and spec
tators. After Ihe companies were marched
back to town, they were entertained a few
moments, with a neat little address, deliv
ered by Por, Shauk, of the Orangeville
Male and Female Academy.' His remarks
were on the war question and were well re
ceived, frequently bringing out shoats of
applause... Upon the whole, all passed off
smoothly. ' Il was a goa day in Orangeville.
