WE have just received some of J. Miles k Sous’ best Tipped Gaiters, Walking Shoes and Morocco Boots. May 8. SWANSON, JETT k CO. CATHARTIC PILI.S OPERATE by their powerful influence on the internal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate it into healthy action. They remove the obstructions of the stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs of the body, and, by restoring their irregular action to health, correct, wherever they exist, such derangements as are the first causes of disease. An extensive trial of their virtues, by Professors, Physicians and Patients, lias shown cures of dangerous diseases almost beyond belief, wore they not substantiated by persons of such exalted position aud character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth. Their certitlcats are published in my American Al manac which the agents below named are pleas ed to furnish free to all inquiring. Annexed we give Directum* For their use in the complaints which they have been found to CJre. For Gostivenkss. —Take one or two Pills, or such quantity as to gently move the bowels. Costiveness is frequently the aggravating cause of Piles, and the cuie of one complaint is the cure of both. No person can feel well while under a costive habit of body. Hence it should be, as it can be, promptly relieved. Fon Dyspbi'sia, which is sometime the cause of Costivenesi, aud always uncomfortable, take mild doses—from one to four—to stimulate the stomach and liver into healthy action. They will do it, and the heartburn, bodyburn and souD burn of dyspepsia will rapidly disappear. When it lias gone, don’t forget what cured you. For a Font, Stomach, or Morbid Inaction of the liowel* } which produces general depression of tlie spirits and bad health, take from four to eight Pills at first, and smaller doses afterwards, until activity aud strength is restored to the system. For Nervousness, Sick llkadacub, Nausea, Pain in the Stomach, Hock, or Side, take from four to eight Pills on going to bed. If they do not operate sufficiently, take more the next'duy uutil they do. Those complaints will bo swept out from tlie system. Don't wear these aud their kindred disorders because your stomach is foul. For Scrofula, Erysipelas, and aU Disease* of the Skin, take the Pills freely and frequently, to keep the bowels open. The eruptions will gen erally soon begin to diminish and disappear. Many dreadful ulcers and sores have boon healed up by the purging and purifying effect of these Pills, aud some disgusting diseases which seemed to saturate the whole system, have completely yielded to their influence, leaving the sufferer iu Eerfect health. Patients! your duty to society irbids that you should parade yourself around the world, covered with pimples, blotches, ul cers, sores, and all or any of the unclean dis eases of the skin, because your system wants cleansing. To Purify tub Blood, they arc the best medi cine ever discovered. They should bo taken freely and frequently, and the impurities which how the seeds of incurable diseases will be swept out of the system like chaff before the wind. By this property they do as much good in prevent ing sickness as by the remarkable euros which they are making everywhere. Liver Complaint, Jaundice, and all Bilious .infections arise from some derangement—either torpidity, congestion, or obstruction of the Liver. Torpidity and congestion vitiate the bile, and render it untit for digestion. This is disastrous to the health, aud the constitution is frequently undermined by no other emse. Indigestion is the symptom. Obstruction of the duct which mopties the bile iuto the stomach causes the bile to verflow iuto the blood. This produces jaun dioe, with a long and dangerous train of evils. Costiveness, or alternately co.stiveness and diarr rhneA, prevails. Feverish symptoms, languor, low spirits, weariness reStkwsness, and melan choly, with sometimes inability to sleep, and sometimes great drowsiness; sometimes there is severe pain in the side; the skin and the white of the eyes become a greenish yellow; the stom ach acid; the bowels sore to the touch; the whole system irritable, with a tendency to fever, which may turn to bilious fever, bilious colic’, bilious diarrhoea, dysentery, kc. A medium dose of three or four Pills taken at night, follow ed by two or three in the morning, and repeated a few days, will remove the cause of all those troubles. It is wicked to suffer such pains when you can oure them fdr 25 cents. Rheumatism. Gout, and all Infiommniury Fe vers, are rapidly cured by the purifying effects of these Pilis upon the blood, and tiie stimulus which they afford to the vital princple of life. For these and all kindred compltftnts, they should be taken in mild doses, to move the bowels gently, but freely. 4A9 a Dinner Pill, this is both agreeable and •iscful. No Pill can be made more pleasant to take, and certainly none has been made more effectual to the purpose for which a dinner pill is employed. Prepared by J. C.

DAY’S MAGICAL-CLEANSER is the best preparation now known for removing PAINT, TAR, TURPENTINE, VARNISH, Or Grease Soots of every sort or size, from all kinds of Cotton, Woolen, Silk or Velvet cloth, without injurin'/ the color or texture of the good*. Numerous erasivc preparations have been offer ed to the public, but there are serious objections to all of them. Some merely drive the objection able substance from the surface into the cloth, and it soon appears againj others extract it but «t the same time either destroy the texture or the color. None of them propose to remove Paint or Var nish after they have had time to become thorough !v dry. This preparation is warranted not to uf tect the color of anything which will boar wash ing in soap and water, and will remove old Paint., Varnish and Turpentine as well as fresh. Pur chasers will have their money returned if it fails, in a single particular, to do all that is claimed for it. Try a bottle. For Sale in Madison, at the BOOKSTORE and at the DRUG STORE.

A SURE, safe and reliable remedy for Diarr hoea, Dysentery, Cholera Morbus, Cholera, Cramp and Pain in the Stomach or Bowels, Chol ic, Vomiting, Sea Sickness, Heart Water brjsh, or Acid Eructations after eating, Nervous H-adache and other symptoms of Nervous Debil ity, It is particularly adapted to the cure, of Summer Complaint, Cholera infantum, Teething Diarrhoea, and similar Diseases of Children, it being very pleasant to take and mild in its oper ation. This Remedy was used with perfect success by Dr. Appleby, the original Proprietor, during a ten vears residence on the coast of Western Africa, where Cholera, Diarrhoea, and Dvsentery, in their most aggravated foims prevail and have ever proved so fatal to European residents. Since bis return he has made constant use of it in his prac tice, and has never known it to fail in Dysentery and Diarrhoea, when taken according to direc tions. In the mines of California, where many fall victims to the Diarrhoea and Dysentery so fa tal among the miners in that country, it has been used with eminent success, and has never been known to fail in giving speedy and permanent re lief. One letter from the mines says: “When all other medicines used here have failed, the Di arrhoia Fpscific works like a charm.” Another says of it: 44 The Specific has proved effectual in every case in which I have known it ustd: two or three doses being sometimes sufficient to effect a cure.” We have many certificates of the per manent cure of Chronic Affections of the Stom ach and Botvels by this remedy, in which all oth ers had failed. Sir’ll is unsurpassed in the cure of many dis eases peculiar to females. Tlie Medicine is now prepared under the direc tion of one of the first Chemists and Physicians in Massachusetts.

A NEW COOPER! JUST PUBLISHED, SARATOGA: A TALE OF 17&7. I A Romance of American Border Life. One vol ume, 12 mo., Mudin, Price $1.25. AMERICAN Novelists hare of late confined themselves mainly to sketches ofsoeial and ! domestic life. They have aimed to produce miniia | t ores and cabinet pieces rather than historical pic tures. The author of Saratoga has chosen a large i canvas, aud has wrought with a bolder hand. By placing the scene of his story on what was ! then the verge of civilization, and portraying | characters trained in all the exigencies of border j life, he has constructed a narative full of startling incident and thrilling adventure, without violu • ting the probabilities of history. The bold, cau tious woodsman, Sandy Brigliam, the watchful, \ taciturn Indian, Catfoot, ana the wilv. revengeful half-breed, Joe, will compare favorably with the ; best delinmtions in the “ Leatherstocking Tales” of the great American Novelist. Since Cooper i put forth his earlier and better novels, no Ameri can author has written a work of this class pos sessing merits equal to this tale of life on the bor ders. The title of this book gives us to know at once the nature of its contents. It abounds in inci dents of an exciting character.
