Tho Tarkitin Ques'cloa and War.
The Pacific arrived on Sunday, thebearer of
intelligence of unusual importance. The Rue..
elan Embassy had finally left Constanstinople.
Prince Menchikoff was at Odessa, superintend
ing, as was reported, tile preparations for the
invasion of Turkey. Another rumor alleges
that the Czar was furious at the rejection of
his demands by the Sultan, declaring that he
would have vengeance for such insolence. Cer
tain it is that all is activity in the Turkish army
and navy, and that the Porte is making ready
for defense. At London and Paris the funds
had declined somewhat before the probabilities
of a general war. Still there was a strong ex
pectation that Russia would not carry matters
so far. Even The London Times condemns
her demands on Turkey as amazingly intem
perate and unjust. No Europe. journal is
found to justify her course, and with public
opinion so unanimously against her, we hold
to our often expressed conviction that she will
not at once commence hostilities on the ground
of Menchikoff's failure alone.
But never for thirty years, except during
times of open revolution, has the peace of Eu
rope been so precarious. Never either has the
complication of interests been so great. Rus
sia alone has a clear path before her; she stea
dily follows the interest and ambition of her
autocrat, and does not need to strengthen her
self by foreign alliances. But that cannot be
said of England, France, Prussia or Austria.—
The last two powers are closely. connected with
the Czar, have long been subservient to his
purposes, and desperately fear to break with
him. But for Russia to obtain possession of
Turkey would be an injurious blow to their
commerce. It would put the mouth of the
Danube into the control of a competitor, who
would deprive them of its use; and thus it would
close against their trade a market on whose in
creasing value they set a great account.
On the other hand, the Emperor of France
has a long and bitter reckoning to settle
against the whole three Northern Powers.—
The successor of Napoleon aspires to humble
at once the successors of Peter, of Maria The
resa, and of the Great Frederic; but his ambi
tion looks to the acquisition of Belgians, on
the left bank of the Rhine and Savoy, much
snore ardently than to the defence of Constan
tinople. It is by no means certain that lie
would agree to resign Turkey if he could get
his wishes nearer home.
England, on the other hand, eon as little tol
erate the schemes of the French as of the Rus
sian Emperor. With the latter she must, as
the last resort, fight to maintain the indepen
dence of Belgium and Piedmont, and with the
former to preserve the integrity of Turkey.—
At the same time England would suffer most
deeply front a European war. She is in no
condition to make one. Her mercantile and
industrial interests forbid it. She cannot af
ford to sacrifice her manufactures and naviga
tion in such a struggle. Besides, her Indian
empire is not only deeply vulnerable, but its
resources are threatened. It now depends on
the opium crop which is sold in China ; but the
Chinese are beginning to raise theirown opium,
and there is a prospect that they will do so en
tirely. Then there is the Burmese war, an ex
pensive and unprofitable enterprise, with the
prospect of a greater calamity in the annexa
tion of all that Empire. Who can say what
would be the effect of a war in Europe on the
British Indian possessions, with Russian craft
to stir up the yet unsubdued portion of the na
tives to open hostilities, and Russian forces to
back them up ? There are very good reasons
why England should be slow to believe that
such a war cannot be avoided. Avoided we
may he sure it will be if western diplomacy can
prevail upon the Czar. But we may also be
sure that it cannot prevail long. His fixed
idea is to have Constantinople as the third Cap
ital of his Empire, and thence to sway the des
tinies of Europe, put down illegitimate govern
ments, and suppress revolutions. Thatidea he
must sootier or later attempt to eery out. We
judge that he will begin before the close of the
present year. Then, let the war go sleep and
wide, and Heaven prosper the right !—X. Y.

fl er The Convention of Universalists, which

Marble Cement.
Take Plaster of Paris, and soak it in a sa

Hobensack's Worm Syrup.
An article founded upon Scientific, Principles,
compounded with purely vegetable substances,
being perfectly safe when taken, and bas never
been known to fail in curing the most obstinate
case. Worms can never exist when this remedy
is once used, from the fact that it only destroys
them but removes all the slime and mucus which
may remain.
The Tape Worm.
This worm is the most difficult ono to destroy
of all that inhabit the Imam body. It grows to
an almost indefinite length, and becoming so
coiled and fastened in the intestines and stomach
as to produce Fits, St. Vitus' Dance, &c.,
is the cause of many going to the grave, not be
lieving that these complaints have their origin
from the Tape Worm; consequently they do not
use the proper medicines for their disease. To
those who are afflicted with this awful foe to
health, I recommend the use of my Worm Sy
rup, and Liver Pills; the Syrup to he taken in
doses of two table-spoonsials three times a day,
then take from 5 to 8 of my Liver Pills, to his
loge and pass the worm. By strictly following
these directions, the most obstinate cases of Tape
Worm con he speedily cured.
Round or Stomach. Worm.
This worm is usually found in the small intes
tines, and is the worm most common to children,
vet is not entirely confined to them, as ndults
have frequently been known to suffer with them.
The symptoms most prom ineht while affected with
this worm, are hardness and fullness of the belly
slimy stools, looseness of the bowels, picking at
the nose, a blueish streak under the eyes, &v.—
IF you, or any of year children have any of the
above symptoms, Ilobensaek's Worm Syrup can
safely be depended upon—by using it you have a
certain, safe, and speedy cure; and if after using
it according to the directions, the patient is not
restored to health; and the worms thoroughly
eradicated from the system, von can rest assured
there is ua remedy beyond the grave, as for fail,
there is no such word as fail with those who use
my worm Syrup.
Ascarides, or Small Thread Worm.
These warms, to whirls the human system is
liable, are the most troublesome of all others.—
They are generally to be found in the rectum,and
if allowed to remain, from the irritation they pro
duce, lay the foundation for miens disorders,
such as intimation of the bowels, and other de
rangements of the stomach. The best and safest
medicine that can be used is Hobenssek's Worm
Syrup. Such is the astonishing power of my
medicines over Asearides, that I defy any one to
produce a case where my worm Syrup and Liver
Pills are recommended to he used they will not
cure. All that is necessary is to use the Syrup
in accordance with directions on each bottle; and
in ease a gentle purgative is required in order to
allay the irritation they produce, the Liver Pills
by their sympathising action and healthy opera
tion upon tire bowels, is the most pleasant medi
cine that can be taken.
Hobensack , s Liver Pills.
No part of the system is more liable to disoaso
than the Liver, it being supplied with numerous
blood-vessels and nerves, and it' diseased, tho
blood of course flowing through all parts of the
body produces Liver Complaints, Jaundice. Bil
lions Affections; Dyspepsia, &c., &c.
Liver Complaint.
Is attended with chills, succeeded by fever, se
vere pains in the region of the Liver, vomiting,
bitter tastes, yellow furred tongue, pulse fall and
bounding, the pain in the side is increased by
pressure, should the left lobe be affected, the pain
is generally in the left shoulder, with a short, dry
cough, the skin becoming of a sallow appearance,
and the stools clay colored. This disease can be
cared by the use of Hobensitek's Liver Pills, as
they act directly upon the seat of the disease, and
then operating upon the bowels they expel all Ole
corrupt and vitiated matter from the system.
Dyspepsia.
The symptoms of Dyspepsia, and its various
diseases are dizziness in the bead, heartburn, op
pression after eating meals, sourness arising from
the stomach, &c., and sometimes general languor
of the whole body, from this it will be seen that
the disease owes its origin to a disorganized
state of the Liver and Stomach. Ilobensack's
Liver Pills is the very medicine to effect - a per
manent and lasting cure, as they act by changing
the certain morbid actions of the system into a
healthy action, and rendering the blood pure and
healthy.
To Females,
You will find these Pills an invaluable medi
cine in many complaints to which you aro subject.
In obstructions either total or partial, they have
been found of inestimable benefit in restoring nod
purifying the blood and other fluids so as to cure
all complaints which may arise from female irreg
ularities, as headache. dimness of sight, pain in
the side, back, &c. These Pills aro the only safe
and effectual remedy to cure the following com
plaints, Gout, Nervousness, Melancholy, Sick
Headache, Giddiness, Rheumatism, distressing
Dreams, Dimness of Sight, or in (het any of the
diseases that arise from the afThctions of the Liver,
impurity of the blood, or Constipation of the
Bowels.
Medical Evidence.
WE, the undersigned Physicians, having had
the receipt of their manutlicture submitted to us
for inspection; say, that the ingredients of which
they are composed makes them the best Pill in
use for all diseases of the Liver, Impurities of
the Blood, be.

"Thousands upon thousands ofour youth, by evil
example and the influence of the passions, have
been led into the habit of self-pollution without
realizing the sin and consequence upon them

thousands, who are raising families have been
enfeebled, if not broken down, and they do not
know the cause or the cure. Any thing that
