OLD DOG TRAY-IMPROVED.
They took n pair of shears
And closely cropped his ears,
Ho howled as though he thought
The devil was to pay ;
And though it was a sin,
His tail wax driven in,
Which spoiled the looks of poor dop, Tray.
Old dog Tray, he is frightful,
His fad is cot off quite away,
Of all dogs in town, bobbin coon'

NIGGER DUEL.
A duel between two darkies—a regular
built affair, conducted according to the
most strict and punctilious provisions of
the code of honor—came off one morning
last week. Thu fight took place with pis
tols of the most approved fashion, at sun
rise, on a small branch of the Metairie
Road, Wu do not know what the origin
of the difficulty was, except that one of the
parties, to use the phrase of one of the
spectators, ciwas crossed in lub by do oder,
and dat him hona must hab satisfacshun "
We have learned, from ono who was pres
ent at the combat, the particulars as they
transpired. They are substantially as fol
lows. •
After having taken their stands, ono.of
the seconds noticed that owing to their po
sitions, the sunbeams set his principal a
winking and rolling his eyes. This was
sufficient ground for interfering. and he .
called out to the other second with—"l say
nigE,9, I puts my veto on dat possishun.—
It's ;iglu de rules ob all do coder of hona
dat I giber seen. Do Erection ob do sun
shines ruder too severe, and makes my
prinspal roll him eye altogeder too much."
"Wh, wy, look hero : didn't we chuck up
a dollar, for de choice oh ground? and did
n't I get hint myself ?" "Yes, I knows
you did; but den fair play's a jobs, and
l'se no notion ob seein' my friend compos
ed upon, and lose all de ad wantage.' 'Well
nigga, Use no notion too jus as good
right to hob no notion as you has, nod I
'sists in settlin' the matter jus as wo is--
and—." At this junctions friendly cloud
settled the matter at once, by stopping in
between the sun and the belligerents.—
The two first causes took their position and
all the little preliminaries being settled,
each ono took his pistol ready cocked, from
his second. Both manifested a tolerable
degree of spunk, although a blueish pale
ness spread itself over their black cheeks.
The second who was to give out the fatal
order which might send them out of the
world, now took his ground. Raising his
voice, he began—"Gemmen your time am
cum. Is you ready?' Both signified their
assent. "Fish I one—two—three."—
Bang, pop went both pistols at once ; one
ball:raised the dust in the middle of the
road, whilst the other took a "slantindicu
lar" course in among the bystanders, for
tunately without hitting any one. It was
now time to interpose, and ono of the sec
onds set himself about it. After a little
conversation the challenged darkey step
ped forward and said to his antagonist—
"Niggit is you satisfied ?"—"I is."--"So
is I, and I'se glad to get ofl so. Nex time
doy catches dis niggn out on such a foolish
exhibition as dis, dey'll hab to fetch me,
dat (ley will for certain." "Dem's my sen
timents zactly," retorted the other. 'When
your onmortal instrument of def went off,
I declar I thought I was a gone child ; but
l'se so happy now ; let us shake hands;
and go back to our abocations!—Emigrant
in Canada.

AYER'S PILLS.
AYER'S CHERRY PECTORAL,
For the rapid cove of Coughs, Colds, Hoarse
ness, Bronchitis,Whooping-Cough, Asthma and
Consumption, is universally known as the best
remedy ever yet discovered for every variety of
Pulmonary disease. So wide is the field of its
usefulness and so numerous the cases of its cores
that almost every section of the country abounds
in persons publicly known, who have been re
stored from alarming and even desperate cases
of the lungs by its use. When once tried its su
periority over every other medicine of its kind
is too apparent to escape observation, and where
its virtues are known, the public no longer hesi
tate what antidote to employ for the distressing
and dangerous affections of the pulmonary or
gans which ore incident to our climate. By its
timely use many, nay, almost all attacks of dis
ease upon the Lungs or Throat, are arrested
and thus arc saved many thousands every year
from a premature grave. No family should 1)0
without it, and those who do neglect to provide
themselves with a remedy which wards off this
dangerous class of diseases will have cause to
deplore it when it is too late. Proofs of the sur
prising efficacy of the Cherry Pectoral need not
be given to the American people,—they have li
ving proofs in every neighborhood. But those
who wish to road the statements of tissue whose
whole health has been restored and whose lives
have been saved by its use, will find them in my
American Almanac which the agent below nam
ed has to furnish gratis to every ono.

This disease is the penalty most frequently
paid by those who have become the victim of
improper indulgencies. Young persons are too
apt to commit excesses from not being aware of
the dreadful consequence that may ensue.—
Now, who that understands the subject will pre
tend to deny that the power of Procreation is
lost sooner by thoselfallingi into improper habit
than by tho prudent. Besides being deprived
of the pleasure of healthy offspring, the most se
rious and destructive symptoms to mind nod Ito

' London, graduate from one of the most eminent
Colleges of the United States, and the greater
part of whose life has been spent in the first 1103.-
vitals of London, Paris Philadelphia, and else
where, has effected some of the most astonish
ing cures that wore ever lcnown, many troubled
with ringing in the head and ears when asleep,
great nervousness, being alarmed at sudden
sounds, anti bashfulness, with frequent blushing
attended sometimes with derangement of mind,
were cured immediately.
A Certain Disease.
When the -misguided and imprudent votary
of pleasure finds he has imbibed the seeds atlas
painful disease, it to too often happens that an
ill-titned sense of shame, or dread of d iscovery,
deters him front applying to those who from ed
ucation and respectability, can alone befriend
him, delaying till the constitutional symptoms
of title horrid disease make their appearance,
such as ulcerated core throat, diseased nose,
nocturnal pains in the head and limits, dimness
of sight, deafness, nodes on the shin bones, .d
arms, blotches on the head, face and extremities,
progressing with frightful rapidity, till at last
the palate of the mouth or the bones of the nose
fall in, and the victim of this awful disease be
comes a horrid abject of commiseration, till
death puts a period to his dreadful sufferings, by
sending him to "that bourne from whence no
traveller returns," To such, therefore, Dr.
Johnston pledges himself to r reserve the must
inviolable secrecy, and from his extensive prac
tice in the first Despite's of Europe and Ameri
ca, he can confidently recommend a safe and
speedy cure to the untimunate victim of this hot
rid disease.
It is a melancholy fact that thousands fall vic
tims to this horrid disease owing to the unslll
fulness of ignorant pretenders Who by the use of
that deadly poison Mercury, ruin the consj
tut ion, end either send the unfortunate suflerer
to an untimely grave, or make the residua of his
life miserable.

Dowaginc, Mich., March 11, 1856.
J. A. Rhodes, Esq.: Dear Sir—As I took your
medicine to sell on consignment, "no cure no
pay, , ' I lake pleasure in stating itsoffects as re
ported to me lip three broth ire wholly° in this
piece, and their testimony is tx fair specimen of
all I have received
W. S. Conklin told me—"l bed taken nine
bottles of Cltristie's Ague Balsam, and coutinu
ally run down While using it until my lungs and
liver were Congested to that degree that blood
discharged ff.n my mouth and bowels, so that
all thought it impossible for tne to live through
another chill. The doctors too did all they could
for ate, but thought I must die. Nothing did me
good until I got Rhodes' Fever nod Ague Cure,
which at once relieved moot' the distress and nau
sea at my stomach and pain in my hoed and
bowels, and produced n permanent 'cure in a
short time."
H. M. Conklin says I "I ha( taken medicine
of as good a doctor us eve have in our county,
and taken any quantity of quinine and specifics
without any good results from 25th August to
17th December. But seeing how nicely it ope
rated on my brother, I got a bottle of Rhodos'
Fever and Ague Cure, which effected a perma
nent cure by using two thirds of a bottle. '
S. M. Conklin wits not here, but both other
brothers say his case was the sumo as 11. M's.
I sold the medicine to both the same day, and
the cure was as speedy Awn the same small quan
tity, and I might so specify. Yours with re
spect, A. lIUNTINGTON.
The nbove speaks for itself. Good proof as it
is, it is of no better tenor Clint the vast number
of like certificates I have already published, and
the still greater amount that is pouring in to me.
One thing more. Last year I had occasion to
Caution the Public in these words :
"f noti,e one flea who have taken oneol my gen
e,d eircolurs, substituted the name (Phew nostrum
for nict medicine, and Men with ben:en inormdemm
end their pamphlet with the crelomnt , on, "Lel the
pro / wider of call ogler medicine any as murk if lie
"
Now I take pleasure in saying that the Cau
tion referred to the same "Dr. Christio's Ague
Balsam" that is tneutioued iu the above certifi
cate.
There aro several other industrious people who
are applying to their poisonous trash all that I
widish about my Fever and Ague Cure, or An
tidote to Malaria, except the Certificates ()retires
and the Certificate of the celebrated Chemist,
Dr, James It. Chilton, of N. Y. in favor or its

MEDICAL ADVERTISEMENTS.
Greatest Medical Discovery of
the Age.
Dr. Kennedy, of Roxbury, ha 3 discovered in
ore of onr common pasture weeds a remedy that

lie has tried it in over 1100 cases, and never
failed except in two cases. (both thunder humor.)
He has now in his possession over two hundred
certificates of its virtue, all within twenty miles
of Boston.
Two bottles aro warranted to cure a nursing
sore mouth.
One to thrco bottles will cure the worst kind
of Pimples on the thee.
Two or three bottles will curo the , ystent of
Biles.
Two bottles are warranted to cure the worst
case of Erysipelas.
Ono to two bottic3 arc warranted to curo all
'tumor in the Eye,.
Two bottles aro warranted to cure running of
lie ears and blothes among the hair.
Four to six bottles ore warranted to cure
3orrupt and running ulcers.
Ono bottle will cure scaly corruption of the
iktu. •
Two to three bottles arc warranted to cure
to'worst case of ringworm.
Two to throe bottles are warn - inlet, to cure
to most desperate case of rheumatism.
Three to four bottles are warranted to cure
to snit rheum.
Five to eight bottles will cure the worst case
f scrofula.
......
A benefit it always experienced front the first
bottle, and a perfect cure is warranted when
the above quantity is taken.
Bender, I peddled over a thousand bottles
of this in the vicinity of Boston. I know the
effect of it in every case. So sure as water will
extinguish tire, so sure will this cure humor.—
I never sold a bottle of it but that sold another;
after a trial it always speaks for itself. There
are two things about this herb that appear to
me surprising; first it grows in our pastures in
some places quite plentiful and yet its value
has never been known until I discovered it in
18 , BI—second that it should earn all bards of
humor.
.....
Inorder to give some idea of the sudden rise
and great popularity of the discovery. I will
state that in April, 1855, I peddled it and soli
about six bottles per day—in April, 185.1, I sold
over one thousand per day of it.
Some of the wholesale Druggists who have
been in business twenty and thirty years, say
that nothing in the annals of patent medicines
was ever like it. There is a universal praise
of it frotn all quarters.
In my own practice I always kept it strictly
for humor—but since its introduction as a gen
eral flintily mmlichm, great and wrnilcriul vir
tues have been found in it that I never suspect-
ed.
Several eases of epileptic fits—a disease
which was always considered incurable, have
cured by a few bottles. 0, what a mercy
if it will prove effectual iu all eases of that
dreadful maldy—there arc but few who have
more of it than 1 have. _ _ _
I know of several VISOR of Dropsy, all of
whom aged people cured by it. Fur the vari
ous diseases of the Liver, Sick Headache, Dys
pepsia, Asthma, Fever and Aguo, Pain in the
Side, Diseases of the Spine, and particularly
in diseases of the Kidneys, &e., the discovery
has dune more good then any medicine ever
known. _ .
No clump of diet ever necessary—cot tho
bout you can get and enough of it.
