    The Fruits of the Victory.
The following article, from the Ameri
can Sentinel, a Locofoco paper, is charac
terized by good sound sense, and deserves
the attention of every man in the Country
who earns his living by the sweat of his
brow. We have been so much pleased
with the view the writer takes of the mat
ter, that we cannot refrain from giving it
a place in our columns.
Some time ago I undertook to give you
some lines upon our condition, and the
Urns that were approaching. After that
I had got work fur a short spell, and I am
now idle again, and, I am afraid, likely to
continue so ; and, therefore, I csn write
all I have to say to you. Well, we have
got the Monster fairly down, broke up
root and branch, and a good many other
banks—we have got free trade, and we
have come down to the real specie basis.
So far, we have conquered—we have won
the battle. Now, then, let us see what is the
cost of our victory. In the first place, all
wages must come down h or, I may say,
in truth, Itavecome down—there is not a
laboring man of my acquaintance, far or
near, thipas not been cut down already.
But this is a small part of the matter—,
three-fourths of us cannot get employment
at any wages! And then our wives and
daughters, who used to get work and help
us along—thg are all out. My old wo•
man Neetrro work for one of the Bank Ar
istocrats, and did his lenen up at seventy•
fiye cents a dozen. She would have some
five or six dozen of them a week, all cash.
Then my slaughter Nancy worked for a
large hatting establishment, also one of
the Bank Whigs, and used to get her three
dollars and a quarter a week —cash down
from there, too every Saturday night.—
We had a merry time of it—no trouble to
pay our rent, but on Sunday we were all
brave in our new clothes, and our Nancy
was a fine lady ! The young house car-
penter, who was just out of his time, used
to come and go with us to church, and he
talked of building a nice house, and all
thinis looked fine for us. Well, now the
victory has taken all things from us. I
am afraid we have not only pulled down
tut Itank, but we have fallen under it.—
It is a Batt e.mue, that come over us—and
so sudden, too. Pool a..,y came home
crying the other day, just as I got
" What is the matter with you, Anna?"
said I. Why, father," said she, "my
employer has sent me home, He dischar
ged all the girls in the shop to-day, and
until they get a new bank, he cannot go
on." With that I heard another sigh in
the room, and there stood the old woman
wiping her eyes. " Why, Betsy," says I,
what's the use? I dare say the mill will
go again." "No, no," says she; 'the
very best gentleman, the kindest hearted
man I ever saw, that I worked for, has
failed--he paid me his last to day, and
God knows where I shall now find ano
ther paymaster after him." Well, so it
was. Neither of them reproached me, but
I felt a sort of convicted—they were both
good souls and too kind for that. Well,
in walks my particular friend, neighbor
Talkfast, the patriot. I reckon he got
snatched. He began in the old way, to
talk about banks, and bank thieves, and
great rogues, and all that; but the old wo.
man took him short. "You may talk of
rogues as much as you please," said she;
" but tell me who took the bread out of my
children's mouths? You can be a fine
politician, and walk down to Chesnut
street every day, and let your poor wife
stand in the market, selling her little
things, to keep a houseover your head; but
my husband is an industrious man, and
wantsvork and to lay up a little for whenhe
gets old. Can your specie folks find him
work 1" Now this was as an old sailor of
my acquaintance used to say, giving him
a shot between wind and water. Neigh
bor pulled his hat over his head and wal
ked Spanish, I tell you : and I sat down as
quiet as allamb, and began to think the
thing over. Says I, "old woman get me
out the pen, ink and paper, and I'll try
and mend it." With that, her face brigh
tened up, and Nance came and gave me a
kiss, and said she, " father, you used to
write against the " monster," as you called
the Bank, and Mr. Furr Dealer this day
said, " if the working men took the think
up, they would soon get a bank." So I
thought if I told this just as it occurred,
some of you might have had the same
thing to happen, and perhaps your wives
and daughters wanted you to do the same
thing. 'Well, as I said, this has been a
pretty dear victory to us working folks ;
indeed none but the office holders can get
along.
The sheriffs, constables, prothonotaries,
judges, and those folks who get their sala
ries —they can say to us, hurra boys,
down with the Banks—let us have the
real constitutional money--none of your
shin plasters." Just as I wrote this far,
in comes another neighbor, a hard work
ing honest weaver. " Well, Jemmy,"
says I, " you see lam at work." "Yes,"
says he, " but I am afraid it is all work
and no pay, for I cannot get a cent from
my employer. My rent is due and my
wife and all the girls are out of work too.
What are you about ?" says he. I told'
him I was calculating what the working
men had gained by destroying the Banks.
"I tell you, says he; we have gained a
great political reputation, and have lost
every thing else. "Why," says I, that's
what old Falstaff said about honor. Will
political reputation buy a loaf of bread,
give employment to the laborer, pay his
rent, keep his clothes whole? Not a par
ticle of it. " Well," said I, " the power
that pulled down can build up. 'We had
good times, we had plenty of gold and sil
ver, we had as much work as we wanted,
and we had a good Bank and a good Tar•
iff; and I say to you neighbor, the work
ingmen can bring back all these things if
they will do as the sailor did with Jonah."
" How was that ?" said he. " Why,"
said I, " when Jonah, went oh board the
ship, and the wind blew furiously, and the
waves threatened to swallow the vessel,
they looked about for Jonah, and lo he
was asleep in his berth! So they said
this must be a wicked man, or how could
he sleep when we are in so much danger,
and so they pitched him overboard and the
vessel was saved. So, my friend, if you
will pitch over the political Jonahs, who
are asleep whilst you are in danger, all
will be well."

These very distressing complaints often
ead into CONSUMPTION through ne
glect at the first attack. I would therefore
advise those whose cough begins to become
troublesome, and the Expectoration scanty,
with more or less soreness of the throat, di
fficult raising of phlegm, &c. that they sho'd'
immediately apply for a suitable medicine,
which is Dr. DUNCAN'S EXPECTOR
ANT Remedy for Consumption, &c. This',
medicine I have found in every instance 0
remove those unpleasant annoyances in a
few days. One single bottle will in most ca
ses, prove this assertion. Therefore, you
who wish to escape the early seeds of Confi
sumption, avail yourselvet of this eppor..l
tunity, and again enjoy the blessings of
health._
JAMES M. BIRCH, Kensington.
N. B. The above was lett at the office by
one who experienced the wonderful effects
of the above medicine. Hundreds are there
who thus express the joyful sentiments of,
their hearts in favor of such a valuaole med-,
icine as Dr. Duncan's Expectorant Remedy,'
that others may find relief from the same
source.

To the whole World!
It is admitted by all who have used them,
(and who has not?) that
DR. PETERS' VEGETABLE ANTIBIL-
lOUs PILLS,
Are the most unrivalled remedy ever disco
vered by the ingenuity of man. They are a
sovereign cure for the following complaints:
Yellow and Bilious Fevers, Fever and Ague,
Dyspepsia, Croup, Liver Complaint, Sick
Headache, Jaundice, Asthma, Rheumatism,
Dropsy, Enlargement of the Spleen, Piles,
Colic, Female Obstructions, Heart-burn,
Furred Tongue, Nausea, Distentions of the
Stomach and Bowels, Incipient Diarrhoea,
Flatulence, Habitual Costiveness, Loss of
Appetite, Blotched or Sallow Complexion,
and in t.II cases of Torpor of the Bowels,
where a Cathartic or an A perient is needed.
They are exceedingly mild in their oper
ation, producing neither Nausea ? Griping,
nor Debility. They are extensively used
and commended by PRACTISING PHY
SICIANS, in all parts of the Union, from
whom any quantity of Certificates of their
value can be obtained.
a:P• Dr. J G Smith, of Woodstock, Va.
says: "They are a better Pill than I can
make." He recommends them to all.
07" The Agent at Strasburg, Va. says, he
supplies families for thirty miles around with
Peters' Pills, and they perform such remar
kable cures that they are preferred to every
other medicine.
07. Mrs. E Ward, of New-York, was
iPoubled with Dyspepsia and Liver Com
plaint for fifteen years. By using these val
uable Pills a short time, she was completely
restored.
Miss Clark, daughter of Col. Clark,
was afflicted with Irregularities and Obstruc
tions, attended with most distressing symj)-
toms. She was cured by using Dr. Peters'
Pills.
it 7 Hon. E D Davis was afflicted with
Rheumatism so as to be unable to dress him
self. Three boxes of Peters' Pills entirely
cured him.
But why multiply testimonials? We say
to all, Try Dr. Peters' Vegetable Pills. and

The Best in the if told.
We ask the serious' attention of every
man, woman, and child in the United States,
to what will prove to be the most valuable
discovery ever made, a discovery that only
requires to be known to be appreciated.
DR. SHERMAN'S MEDIadTED
LOZENGES,
Are the best medicine in the world. Quere:
Why? Simply because they are the most
efficacious, the cheapest, and the pleasant
est to take. What are they? 'They arc a
combination of the most approved remedies
in the whole medical kingdom, and so pre
pared in double refined sugar as to make them
as pleasant to the taste as the best cream
candy ; children will eat them with avidity ;
besides they are more convenient then any
other medicine, they are put up in a single
form of a Lozenge so that a few may be put
in the pocket and eaten at pleasure. There
has never been a single instance in which
they have failed to give perfect satisfaction.
'The Medical Faculty warmly approve of
them.
SHERMAN'S COUGH LOZENGES
Are the safest, most sure and effectual rem•
edy for Colds, Ccnsumption, Whooping
Cough, Asthma, tightness of the Lungs or
Chest, &c. &c.
Mr. John Starkey, foot of Gouverneur-st.,

Rev Mr Hancock, 497 Yearl-st., has . t...a.
them in his family with invariable success,
and recommends them to all who are afflict
ed with coughs, colds,•or any affection of the
lungs.
Mr M E Martin suffeted several weeks
with a distressing cough, which nothing re•
lieved, till he tried these Lozenges, which
cured him M a few hours.
Mr James W Hale, No 5 Tontine Build
ings, Wall-st., gave some to a friend who
had not enjoyed a night's sleep for several
weeks, being every . few minutes attacked
with such a distressing cough, as almost to
take away his life. The Lozenges made
him raise easy, end enabled him to sleep well
at night. He had tried every thing he heard
of, and nothing else afEirded the least relief
—another instance of saving a fellow-being
from an untimely grave.
SIIERMaN'S WORM LOZENGES
Proved in more than 40,000 cases to be in
fallible ; the only certain worm-destroying
medicine ever discovered.
SYMPTOMS OF WORMS.—Pans in the joints
or limbs, offensive breath, picking at the nose,
grinding of the teeth during sleep, and at
times a paleness about the lips with flushed
cheeks, bleeding at the nose, a gnawing sen
sation at the stomach, flashes of heat over the
surface of the body, slight chills or shiver
logs, headache, drowsiness, vertigo, torpor,
disturbed dreams, sudden starting in sleep
with fright and screaming; sometimes a
troublesome cough, feverishness, thirst, pal
lid hue, fits, bad taste in the mouth, difficult
breathing, pain in the stomachs or bowels, fa
tigue, nausea, squeamishness, voracious ap
petite, leanness, bloated stomach or limbs,
gripings, shooting pains in various parts of
the body, a sense of something rising in the
throat, itching of the anus towards night, a
frequent desire to pass something from- the
bowels, and sometimes discharges of slime
and mucus.
Dr Galen Hunter, 108 Sixth Avenue, knew
a child that was cured of fits by these Loz
enges, after three years suffering, and when
nothing else would give the least relief. A
boy on board of one of the Havre packets was
cured of fits by only one (lose of them.
Dr Zabriskie, 18 Duane -street, has used
them in over 700 cases, some of them of the
most alarming character, and always with
the greatest success.
Benjamin F Goodspeed, 150 Sixth Ave
nue, has used them in his family for 2 years,
with entire success. Twenty-five cents per
box.
SHERMAIV'S CAMPHOR, OR
HEADACHE LOZEIVGES
Give immediate relief in nervous sick Head•
ache, palpitation of the heart, lowness of
spirits, despondency, inflammatory or putrid
sore throat, bowel or summer complaint,
fainting, oppression or a sense of sinking of
the chest, cholic, spasms, cramps of the sto
mach or bowels, hysterical affections and all
nervous diseases, drowsiness through the day
and wakefulness at night ; cholera or cholera
merbus, diarrhoea, lassitude, or a sense of
fatigue. Persons travellin or attending
large parties, will find the Lozenges really
reviving, and imparting the buoyancy of
youth--used after dissipation, they will re
store the tone of the system generally, and
remove all the unpleasant symptoms arising'
from ton free living.
John M Moore, Esq., Editor of the Broth
er Jonathan, was cured of a severe headache
in six minutes by three of the Camphor Lo
zenges—he was prejudiced against them.
Dr G Hunter, 108 Sixth Avenue, has been
subject to violent attacks of headache, so as
to make him almost blind for two or three
hours at a time. Nothing ever afforded him
any relief till he tried these Lozenges, and
they cured him in a few minutes.
W H Attree, of the New York Her
ald, has used them for the last year for head
ache, or lassitude, and always found forme-,
diate relief from them.

Unlike the host of pernicious quackeries,
which boast of vegitable ingredients,. the
Life Pilis are purely and SOLELY VAGETA
BLE, and contaittneitherMercury Antimony,
Arsenic, nor any other, mineral,m any form

The following are among the distressing
varietes of human diseases, to which the
vegetable Life Pills are well known to be'
intallible:
DYSPEPSIA, by thoroughly cleansing
the first and second stomachs, and creatinga
flow of pure and healthy bile, instead of the
stale and acrid kind,—Flatulency, Palpita
tion ofthe Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heart
burn and Headache, Restlessness, 111-temp
er, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, which
"."o the general symptomsof Dyspepsia, will

Costiveness, by
of the intestines with a process, and
without violence. Diarrhaa ann sluolera,
by removing the sharp Acrid fluids by whicn
these complaints are occasioned. 'I he Life
Medicines have been known to cure Rheu-
matism permanently in three weeks, and
Gout in half that time. Dropsies of all
kinds, by freeing and strengthening the kid.
ncys and bladder. A certain remedy for
the worst cases of Gravel. Also Worms,
by dislodging from the turnings of the bow
els the slimy matters to which these crea
tures adhere ; As :hma and Consumption, by
relieving the vessels of the lungs from the
mucus; Scurvey, Ulcers, and Inveterate
Sores, by the perfect purity of these Life,
Pills give to the blood, and all the humors;!
Scorbutic Eruptions and Bad Clomplexions,'
by their alterative effect upon the fluids'
that feed the skin. The use of these Pills
for a very short time, will effect an entire
cure of Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, and a
striking improvement in the clearness of
the Skin. Common Colds and Influenza,
will always be cured by one dose, or by
two, even in the worst cases. Piles,—as
a remedy for this most distressing and ob
stinate malady, the Vegetable Life Pills de
serve a distinct and emphatic recommenda
tion. It is well known to hundreds in this
city, that the originator of these invaluable
Pills was himself afflicted with this com
plaint for up Nards of thirty-fiveyears, and
that he tried in vain every remedy pre•
scribed within the compass of the Materia
Medica. He however, at length, tried the
medicine which lie now offers to the public
and he was cured in a very short time;
Allthat Mr. Moffat requires of his pa
tients is to be particular in taking the Life,
Medicines strictly according to the directi.s' i
ADVICE TO FEMALES.-Females who
value good health should r ever be without
the Life Medicines, as they purity the
blood, remove obstructions, and give the
skin a beautiful, clear, healthy, and bloom
ing appearance.
TO PARENTS AND OTHERS.—Per
sons of a pl ethorie habit, who are subject to
fits, headache, giddiness, dimness of sight,
or drowsiness, from too great a flow of blood
to the head, should take it frequently.
Children, and persons of all ages, may take
them at any time, as they do not contain
mercury, or any ingredient that requires
confinement or restriction of diet.

DR. JAYNE,
Dear Si r,—You ask :me what proofs I
meet with of the efficacy of your Carmina
tive. I can safely say that 1 never prescri
bed a medicine for Bowel Complaints that
has given me so much satisfaction, and my
'patients so speedy and perfect relief as this.
Whenever introduced into a family, it be
comes a standing remedy for those ailments,
and is called for again and again; which I
think a pretty good proof of its efficacy and
usefulness. In the Summer Complaint of
children it has frequently alto- e d to snatch
the little victims, as it were, in the grave.
It saved the life of my child, and of such
and such a child.' I have repeatedly heard
said. In dysenteric affections of adults, I
have time and again seen it act like a charm.
and give permanent relief in a few hours, I
may say few minutes. In fine, it is a valua
ble medicine, and no family should be with
out it. Resp ectful iv.
