Middle and Northern Illinois, and Southern Wis- !
*eosin, where he will attend to the purchase and
sale of Improved and Unimproved Lands, payment
of TAMS, Location of Mexican Land \Vervains,
making selections for those who may be entitled to
Bounty Lands under the late act of Congress, and
generally to all business connected with a general
Land Agency. ti
Baring completed arrangements whereby per
sons wishing to procure lands in this fertile and
rapidly improving portion of the West, can do so
at the miiiirnitm price of $1.25 per acre, without
the expense and risk of travelling there, any per
son who may pay to my Agent, James Maguire,
at Huntingdon, the sum of two hundred dollars,
will have one quarter section (160 acres) entered
in their name, (or as they may direct) for which
they will receive the patent from the general Lami
Office at Washington city, in their mne, clear of ,
all charges.
Satisfactory security will be given for all perform
ances on any part,and for the refunding ofthe amount

The canal &vita Chicago to Lasalle, at the head
of Steam-boat Navigation on the Illinois River,
the Railroad from Chicago to Galena, which is
sow in process of construction, and the Railroad
from Chicago to Rock Island, ou the Mississippi
river, now completed to Aurora, some 30 miles
west of Chicago, will pass through this country
from East to West, and the great Central Raiiroad
from Galena to the mouth of the Ohio river, pass
es through it from North to South, for the con
struction of which the late Congress appropriated
a large amount of land, thereby securing, beyond
doubt, its speedy completion ; and there is uo doubt
In the mind of any person well informed upon the
subject, but Chicago will be connected with all the
Atlantic Cities by Railroad, in the course of from
two to four yoars from this time, thereby enabling
families to emigrate to this country in the short
space of from three to four days, front any portion
of the East, without the riskof travelling by steam
boat. Persons wishing to procure desirable hotm3a
for themselves and families, will do well to make
application soon, as the amount of public lands is
limited, and is being taken up rapidly by actual
settlers.

For the benefit of sufferers like the and oth

have suffered more or less for twenty years with
the most desperate Rheumatism, and also for 18
years at times with most desperate pain in the
stomach, which at times seemed to expand as if
it would burst ; also for many years I was ter
ribly troubled with cramps in my legs—indeed
I can't describe all my sufferings for so long a
time. I could do no business for the last ten
years, nor had I a single good night's sleep for
the last five years. I never could find any relief
worth mentioning, until last November, when I
met with the Extract of American Oil, end to
my no little surprise I got relieved of all in a
short time and to this day. I respectfully in
vite all who choose to call and see me upon the
matter; such I can tell much more. I can say
it has done wonders on others around me in va
rious complaints. If ever an article was put

I do hereby certify to the following faits :
That I have suffered for five years past with
pain in my back, spine and kidnies, and never
received any relief but by bleeding, for a few
days only. Last November I got a bottle of
the Extract of American Oil, I used it inward
ly, and to my surprise it removed the complaint
in a short time. From what I have seen and
heard of its wondrous effects upon others in des
perate cases, I can freely recommend ir, and be
lieve it to be worth all the humbugs in the land,
and do believe it will do all for what it is so
highly recommended. C. COUTS.

never before gave a certificate, but this I
give with a clear conscience for the benefit of
sufferers like myself. I suffered with the Ery
sipelas or St. Antony's Fire, mixed with 'let
ter, so pronounced by my doctor, for 12 years.
The su ff ering I endured is beyond description.
At times all my hair came off my head. During
this time I had .no relief for more than a few
clays at a time. Last October 1 got a bottle of
the Extract of American Oil, used it inwardly
and outwardly, and to my great astonishment
and my neighbors, I got clear of it in a short
time, and to this time I have noticed its won
drous effects on other desperate complaints. I
do assure my friends and the public that it is
indeed a wonderful thing for many complaints.

What is the cause of this sallow complexion,

side and shoulder, weariness of body, bitter taste

the symptoms of many a sufferer. It is the
liver which is affected, and the Cholagogue is
the remedy, always successful in curing it.—

become a burden to him, from the racking par-

in human aid is destroyed by the failure of rem
edies to produce the promised relief. Such has
been the situation of thousands who are now re

TIIK sentiment implied in the above ex

single thought, and fewer still reflect upon it
with the observation and good sense which mat

vation teaches the fact that Dr. Osgood's Indian
ChoTagogrre is a never failing remedy in Fever
and Ague, good sense would surely indicate its
prompt and immediate use. For sale by the a
