Ah, the marrow was true in your childrens s
That sprinkled with blood the cursed stones
Of the murder-haunted town ?

Than the army of worms that gnawed beh.w ;
Trample them one and all I
Then. when the battle is won,
And the land from traitors free,
Our children shall Udi of the strife begun
When Liberty’s second April sun
Was bright on our brave old tree !

PERRY DAVIS’
VEGETABLE
PAIN KILLER
THE GREAT
FAMILY MEDICINE OF THE AGE.
WE ask the attention of the trade and
the public to this long and unrivaled.
FAMILY MEDICINE.
For the cure of Colss, Coughs, Weak Stom
ach and General Debility, Indigestion,
Cramp and Pain in Stomach, Bowel Com
plint, Colic, Diarrihea, Cholera, <fcc., ifec.
And for Fever and Ague.
There is nothing better. It has been fa
vorably known for more than twenty years
to be the
ONLY SURE SPECIFIC
For the many diseases incident to the human
family.
Internally and Externally
It works equally sure.
Wliat sfrongrer proq/of these tacts can be
produced than the following letter received
'unsolicited from Rev. A. W. Curbs:
Romeo. Macomb Co, Mich., July 9,1860.
Messrs. J. N. Harris it Co.
Gentleman: — The confidence I have in
Perry Davis’ Pain Killer as a remedy foi
Colds, Coughs, Burns, Sprains and Rheuma
tism, for the cure of which I have successful
ly used it, induce me to cheerfully recom
mend its vi - rues to others:
A few months ago I had recourse to it to
destroy a felon; although I had never heard
of its being used for that purpose, but having
no other remedy at hand. I applied the Pain
Killer freely for about fifteen minutes at even
ing, and repeated the application very briefly
the next morning, which entirely destroyed
the felon, and increased ray confidence in the
utility of the remedy. Yours truly.
A. W. CURTIS,
Minister of the Wesleyan Methodist Church.
THE PAIX KILLER
Has been tasted in every variety of climate
and by almost every nation known to Ameri
cans. * It is the almost constant companion
and inestimable friend of the missionary and
the traveler, on sea and land, and no one
should travel on our LAKES on RIVERS
WITHOUT IT.
Be sure you call for and get the genuine
Pain Killer, as main worthless nostrums are
attempted to be sold on the great reputation
of this valuable medicine.

Headache is the favorite Sign I>y whiter
nature makes known any deviation whatever
from the natural state of the brain, and view*?
in this light in many be looked on as a safe
guard intended to give notice of disease which
might otherwise escape attention, till too late to
be remedied : and its indications should ne»e?
be neglected. Headache may be classified un-r
der two names, viz : Symptomatic and Idiopatlu
ic. Symptomatic Headache is exceedingly
common and is the precursor of a great variety
of diseases, among which are Apoplexy, Gout,
Rheumatism and all febrile diseases. In itj
nervons form it is sympathetic of disease* of the
stomach constituting sick headache, of hepatic
disease constituting bilious headache, ot worms
constipation and other disorders of the bowels
as well as venaland uterine affections. Diseases
of the heart are very frequently attended With
Headaches : Anaemia and plethora sre also after,
tions which frequently occasion headache. Idi®.
pathic Headache is also very common, bein’
usually distinguished by the name of nervou<
headache, sometimes coming on suddenly in a
state of apparently (found health and prostrat.
ingaf once the mental and physical energies
and in other instances it comes on slowly.heraliL
ed by depression of spirits or acerbity" of tem
per. In most instances the pain is in the front
of the head, over one or both eves; and some,
times provoking vomiting ; under tin, class
may also be named Neuralgia.
For the treatment of either class of Headache
the Cephalic Pills have been found a sure and
safe remedy, relieving the most acute pains in a
few minutes, and by its subtle power eradica
ting the diseases of which Headache is the uner
ring index.

Twenty Millions of Dollars saved. —Mr.
Spalding has sold two millions of bottles of his
celebrated Prepared Glue and it is estimated
that each bottle saves at least ten dollars worth
of broken furniture, thus making an aggregate
