CHERRY PECTORAL
(For the Cure of
COUGHS* COLDS* HOARSENESS, |
BRONCHITIS, WHOOPING-COUGH, |
CROUP, ASTHMA, AND
CONSUMPTION. |
I To Cure a Cold, with Headache and Sore-.
ness of the Body, take the Cherry Pectoral on
‘going to bed and wrap up warm, to sweat during
the night. .. I
j For a Cold and Cough, take it morning, noOn,l
and evening, according to directions on the bottle,
and the difficulty will soon he removed. None.
will long suffer from this trouble when they findj
it can be so readily cured. Persons afflicted with;
a seated cough, which breaks them of their rests
fat night, will find, by taking the Ciif.rry Pecto-|
Ihal dn going to bed, they may he sure of sound,B
unbroken sleep, and consequently refreshing rest. g
: Great relief troln suffering, and an ultimate cure,
^is afforded to thousands who arc thus afflicted, by|
Cthis invaluable remedy, . . R
1 From its agreeable effect in these cases, many!
f find themselves nnWilling to forego its use when3
P the necessity fur it has ceased. . j;'
j From two eminent.Physicians in |
Fayetteville, Tenn., April 16th, lcol. p
Sir:—We have given your Cherry Pectoral anj
fextensive trial in our practice, and find it to sur-l
j pass every other remedy wo have for curing affec-l
r. tions of the respiratory organs. . “
DRS. DIEMER & HXMPTON. I
To Singers and Public Speakers this reme-Jj
dy is invaluablo, as by its action oYi thcjthroat aWd ■
lungs, when taken in small quantities, it remoVcS3
all hoarsness in a few hours, and wonderfully in-j
creases the power ami flexibility of the voice.
Asthma is generally much relieved, and often,
wholly cured by Cherry Pectoral. But there are|
I some eases so obstinate as to yield entirely to no^
medicine. Cherry Pectoral will cure them, if they,
can be cured. I
Bronchitis, or irritation ot the throat and up-|
per portion of the lungs, may be cured by taking^
Cherry Pectoral in small and frequent doses. The
uncomfortable oppression is soon relieved.
I Rev. Doct. Lansing, of Brooklyn, New York,
StateS:—
“I have seen the Cherry Pectoral cure such ca
ses of Asthma and Bronchitis as leads me to be
lieve it can rarely fail to cure those diseases.”
| For Croup. Give an emetic of antimony, toi
be followed by large and frequent doses of the;
Cherry Pectoral, until it subdues the disease. If
taken in season, it will not fail to cure.
| Whooping Cough may be broken up and soon
cured by the use of Cherry Pectoral,
j The Influenza is speedily removed by this
remedy. Numerous instances have been noticed
'where whole families were protected from any se
rious consequences, while their neighbors, without
[the Cherry Pectoral, were suflering from the dis
ease.
Salem, Ohio, 11th June, ’51.
Doct. J. C. Ayer'—I write to inform you of the,
truly remarkable effect of your ( herry Pecto-J
rat. in this i^ace, and ifi iuyown family. OneeC
tny daughters Was completely cured in tlrfee days!
[of a dreadful Whooping Cdngh, by taking it. Dr.j
Meads, one of our very best physicians freely states'
that he considers it the best remedy we have for:
pulmonary diseases a'nd that he has cured more
cases of Croup with it than any other medicine he
ever administered.
Our clergyman of the Baptist Church says thatj
I (luring the run of the Influenza here this season, j
he has seen cures front your medic lire-, he cowfd
scarcely have believed without seeing.
Yours respectfully, J. I). SINCLAIR,
Deputy Postmaster.
From the distinguished Professor of Chemistry
and Materia Medico, Bowdoin College.
I have found the Cherry Pectoral, as its in
gredients show, a powerful remedy for colds, and
coughs, and pulmonary diseases.
Parker Cleveland, M. D.

DR. VALENTINE MOTT,
The widely celebrated Professor of Surgery in tht>.
JMedical Codege, Aew York City, says:— I
‘•it gives me pleasure to certify the vahie and
efficacy of 'Jlycr's Client/ Pectoralwhich 1 con
sider peculiarly adapted to cure diseases of the
Throat and Lungs.”
Cures of severe diseases upon the Lungs naVe
been affected by Cherry Pectoral in such ex
treme cases as warrant the belief that a remedy
has at longth been found that can be depended onj
to cure the Coughs, Colds and Consumption!
which carry from our midst thousands every year.!
It is indeed a medicine to which the afflicted canj
look with confidence for relief, and they should!
not fail to avail themselves of it.

Scott and Jackson n.r* here 'plartvi together a:
the two military men who have rtiadfe.the deepes
impressions on their country since the time ol
Washington. They bo?h.achieved a brilliant rep
utation in the war of 1812, and by the battled ot
Chippewa, Niagara, New Orhvms. etc., gave theii
coun try a reputation at home and a broadband thougl
differing widely in some characteristics, they wert
very similar in others. The author has not only
sketched the biography of each, but has given a
faithful and graphic description of the brilliant bat
tles in which they were engaged. The biography
of Winfield Scott, which constitutes the greats
part of the volume, is full.itid authentic, the ma
terials for it having been derived from public doc
uments and from many officers who had served
under Scott. It.presents tp the reader also a pan
oramic view of the brilliant campaign in Mexico,
embracing the storming and capithfetion of Vera
>iiz, t’lie battles of Ccrro Gordo, Churubusco,
CoV,trehi§, Molino del Rey. Chapultepec, storm
ing of Mexico, Triumphal Entry, with description
of the scenery, personal iheidents fete; The au

“Napoleon and his Marshals,” and other works,

A Tulc for the South and JVorth, by Rev. B. R.
Hall. Author of “Something for'Everybody,”
“Mui Purchase,” SfC. 1 rol. 12mo. 75c.
This work, while it advocates the .cause of the
African, would do justice to the South. It would
awaken sympathy but not excite wrath, nor turn
pity for the Negro 'into vengeance against the
White, not inculcate treason under pretence of
love and freedom It would have love to do the
work of hate. It will be marked with the char
acfeHSticS of the author,so well known to the pub
lic by his previous works, of whom it Satis Said ih
the publication of “The New Purchase,” that “He
was the master of many styles and had stepped to
the highest round of the ladder at once.” The
work is no defence of slavery ; but it would be a
balance-wheel, not to stop, but \o concentrate? c
qualize, and direct other motions. It treats tng al
truism of the North to the Lex fdlwnis. The
writer witnessed nluch that he describes, and real
persons arc introduced lirider new names, so that
the Wofrk, whllfe it possesses the interest of fiction, is
hot only true to life, bht In many of its scenes and
characters is true in fa'ct.

Situated in the midst of a country unrivaled
for the salubrity of its atmosphere and purity of its
waters ; the sobriety, morality and intelligence oil
its citizens; to say nothing of its beautiful and pic-l
teresque scenery, this institution presents adv
vantages and offers inducements to parents not 6ur-|

on his part, in a very short time, and at compara
