AYER'S PILLS,
A uEw and singularly successful remedy for
acre of all Bilious diseases - Costiveness. Iadi
gestion, Jaundice, Dropsy, Iheumatism, Fevers,
!oat, Humors, Nervousness, Irritability. Inflamma

am and sufering might be presented, if a harm
less but effectual Cathartic were more freely used.
No persoan can feel well while a costive habit of
body prevails; besides, it soon generates serious and
Soften fatal diseases, which might have been avoided
b the timely and judicious use of a good purgative.
is alike true of Colds, Feverish symptoms, and
Bilios eents. They all tend to become or
rrodusel the seated and formidable distempers
Sviieh load the earses all over the land. Hence a
Stliable family physic is of the first importance to
the public health, and this Pill has been perfected
with consummate skill to meet that demand. An
exatsive trial of its virtues by Physicians, Profes
ma, and Patients, has shown results surpassing
any thing hitherto known of any medicine. Cures
hasebeen effected beyond belief, rs they not sub.
stantiated by persons of such exa._d position and
character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth.
Among the many eminent gentlemen who have
testied m favor of these Pills, we may mention:
Prof J. M. Loc~i, Analytical Chemist, of Cin
cinnati, whose high professional character is en.
dorsed by
JoIns McLte, Judge of the Supreme Court of
the United States.
Teos. Comtws, Secretary of the Treasury.

8. LrELAt. o of the Metropolitan
Hotel, and many
Did space permit, could give many hundred
certificates, from all parts where the Pills have
ibs used, but evidence even more convincing than
the experience of eminent public men is found in
their effects upon trial.
These Pills, the result of long investigation and
study, are offered to the public as the best and
meet complete which the present state of medical
cience can afford. They are compounded not of
the drugs themselves, but of the medicinal virtues
onaly of Vegetable remedies, extracted by chemical;
process in a state of purity, and combined together
am seh a manner as to insure the best results. This
system of composition for medicines has been found
in the Cherry Pectoral and Pills both, to roduce a
more eficient rerre.dy than hal hitherto been ob
tamed by any precess. The reason is perfeý.:ly ob!
vious. While by the old mode of ccmpr -tsin, every
amediie is burdened with more or less of aen
monious and injurious qualities, by this each indi
vidual virtue only that is desired for the curative
lect is present. All the inert and obnoxious qual
Iti eof each sobstance employed are left behind, the
eumtive virtues only being retained. Hence it is
Slf-revident the effects should prove, as they have
pred, more ly remedial, and the Pills a surer,
m powerful antidote to disease than any other
dre known to the world.
As it is frequently expedient thr* my medicine
sbould be taken under the rounsel of an attending
Physician, and as he could not properly judge of a
si.ed.y without knowing its composition, I have
"!.plied the accurate Formula by which both my
Pectral and Pills are made to the whole body of
F'setitioere in the United States and British Amer
.an Provinces If, however, there siould be any
es who has not received them, they will be
Pompty forarded b mail to his request
Of all the Patat Medicines that are offered, how
M inld be taken if their composition was known !
Slie consists in their mystery. I have a*
as aposition alof my preparations is laid open
n, od all who are cometent to judge on
?J#e ubjett fre7 Acknowledge their convictions of
e i hinStrisic mits. The Cherry Pectoral was
.omanaed by scientife men to be a wonderful
dic ine before its efects were known. Many sn
eart Physieians have declared the same thing of
my Pills, and even more confidently, and are .ll
to that their anticipations were more
ls by their effsets upon trial.
They oplrate by their powerful influence on the
mternal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate it
t healthI action-remove the obstructions of
the stgtmi bowels, liver, and other organs of the
dy, restoing their irregular action to health, and
by crreeting, wherevmer they exist, such derange
fents as are the first origin of disease.
Bang sugar-wrapped, they are pleasant to take,
ed . g purely vegetable, no harm can arise from
-lue use ,M an quantity.

tion: In case the delelgates were unable
to attend, the Hon. Win. C. Rives, of
Virginia, was requested to cait the vote
1* of Arkansas in the Convention. The
r'(. following among other resolutions was
I adopted:
ai Reeolved, That in Millard Fillmore

for the Presidency whose former admin
cr is.ration of the Governmer;t-whose pure
' patrioti·.m, enlightened statesmanship,
love for the Constitution and attachment
mite for the Union, affords ample and abun
1s" dant evidence that should he be elected
oe lie will rebuke sectionalism in all its
forms, and be the President of the whole
o0 country, and not of a section or part;
d that the Constitution with all its compro

n uand defended, and the Union, which has
r heretofore been regarded as the palladi.
um of our liberties and the source of our
ms Zreatness and glory, be preserved from
se. the dangers which now so portentiously
threaten it, and that we here declare him
to be among the candidates now before
h the American people our choice for the
Presidency.
e ANOTHER NEW PPERa.-We received
th esterday the first number of the East
'Tennessee Herald, a handsome and spir
D. ited Fillmore paper, started in the town
of Cleveland, Tennessee. Thus the cause

w. Week by week, and day by day is its
i~ strength gathering. New presses are es

gaining the confidence and support of
the " Golden State.' The State Coan

sed the nominations of Fillmore sad
Donelson, and the Americans, costita

have also done the same thing. The
councils are actively at work with in
creased numbers, and it will be a pity if
the American party, that carried the last
election by 5000 majority, in face of the
San Francisco ballot-box stuffers, (who
polled 1925 fraudulent votes,) cannot in
November give the State to Fillmore by
10,000 majority at least.
