On Thursday in the Natural History Depart
m.o , .“Laread by Mr Cb*ri H. Hitch
cock of the Vermont Geological SSarvey upon the
indication.of ardent glacier, in the Green Moan
laic, of Vermont and Mas.acbu.ett. Mr 11 care
jtiliv deecri ed the mark, of an ancient glacier to
be seen in tbe West part of Hancock, in a valley
through which Middleburry Elver commence, to
ran, and within h!f a mile of the crest of the Green
Mountain*.
Tbe reading of tbi* paper gave rise to a very
in’ereating dutcaaeion on tbe whole subject of gla
c,er in New England Col. Eoaler very much
doubted the propriety of referring any of the itr*
to glacial agency. Oar mountain* were not btgb
enough, tbe contour of our country w not varied
enough, nor tbe extreme* of temperature great
en ugb ever to have justified glacier* about us
Prof. Hitchcock reminded tbe colonel that all be
lieved tbe face of tbe country bad experienced ex
iraoro.n&ry change*, enbmergence and elevation
perhaps, and a* great change* of temperature wnce
tbe era of tbe glacier*.
Mr. Stourtleff invited members oi tbe bection to
ride out ten mile* and eee tbe first of tbe glacier lo
calities deecri bed by tbe author of tbe paper. lie
was satisfied that a personal inapect.on womd con
vince tbe skeptical
Prof HitcLcocfc read tbe next naper, oopcerning
the frozen well ot V erinont. It wa* a pen ion of a
report of the Vermont Geological Survey, presented
in advance to tbe Association by permission of the
Governor of tbe State. Tbe well is found in a re
gion which belong* to the “modified drift” penod—
a t rmation much la f er than tbe general drift. Prof.
II had elaborately examined for anaiogoua cases
on record Mr Perkins, of Ware, Man? , has a- ell
in hi* house which occasionally freezes in Winter.
At Owego, in. one of tbe gravel y terraces of tee
Su-quehanna. there is a well which remains |frozeo
during four or five months ot the year. These were
the only iwo tnat seemed to bim to be at all like
tbe Brandon well in its peculiarities. He proceed
ed to examine the question ot tbe cause of such
phenomena. There were two theories—first, that
during tbe glacial period great depositions of ice,
pen hie* and rock, frozen into a solid mas*, might
have aken place, which were afterward covered
over by other depo-itions, so deeply that tbe heat
of the sun had not been able to reach and melt the
ice. and yet so *itua f e above strata pei vious to air,
that the internal heat ot the earth as it rises paeee*
off around them . second, that the congelation is
caused by modern phenomena and which are now
occurring J o thi* Lp leaned as most rational and
probable. Tbe open, loose strata underlying or
surrounding the well, and opening at a distance to
tbe surface, permitted currents of air to pass through
them perpetually, abstracting and bearing off tbe
sun b heat, reducing the temperature at times be*
low the freezing point. He gave no credit what
ever to the eupge-tion that it might be caused by
the reaction ot chemical agent, in tl £ vicinity.

In tiiin section Hr of. Bao.be read a paper mu the
nbeervations on magnetic declination, mode at the
Girard College observatory, between the year.
I*lo and Hit ‘. After tbi. tbe following paper, were
read : ‘‘Circulation of tbe Ooean, ’ by Charles
Wukee, U. S. N. “Some Observations on Ozone,”

In the afteroo. u Dr Woloott Gibb, read a paper
on Platinum. Prof. Bache gave an abstract of the
results of the observation, for temperature at Van
Keua. iaer harbor, North Greenland, made by the
second Grinnell expedition ; also observations on
atm .spheric pre-eure, direction and force of winds,
ko , made at the same place.
Prot. Dawson, ot Canada, read a paper on coal
plants found in the Dower Devonian in Canada,
an a! ago ur to the Ori.kany sandstone of New York,
and nhibited diagrams giving greatly magnified
views of sections of lossiliied wood found in the
same stratum.
Prof. J. D Whitney read a paper on tbe occur

ces ot the North West, and exhibited numerous
specimens, among them teeth of the Mastodo sos
all ages, from the milk teeth to those of the adnlt
There weie also the bones of the peocary, wolf, and
buffalo, most of which appear to have talieu into
crevices where they have been preserved.
In the evening the ladies ot Springfield held a re
ception for the Association in the City Hall.
TIIIKIJ DAY.
On Friday Prof. Bache reported that the Commit
tee on Arctic Exploration had oooperated with Dr.
Hayes in Ins efforts to fit out another expedition,
which bad become still more desirable from the die
discuseion of Dr. Kane’s observations.
In ttie section of tbe Mathematics, and Physics
Prof. IfeDry made a report on Meteorology. He
stated that the average wind of the north temperate
rone was soutb weat, about 10,000 feet high it was
west, and still higher north west, lie had conferred
with Mr. Wise ; and he thought that the aiiocnse of
the preposition to cross the ocean in a balloon was
by no means improbab'e He looked upon the bal
loon as a very important insti ument In meteorology,
n .and the observations cl Mr Wise had been of great
value He thought that the upward mulion of the
air was the most active agency in storms At their
approach the barometer fell, ihe tbermometer and
the lij rometerrose. Tbe air of the surface grew
sultry. became abnormally heated and saturated with
moisture, uulil at last it forced a path up through
the upper, serene, eastward flowing current. The
upward-rushing air reduced the barometer very
much immediately under it. Avery rapid upward
current, prod> cing sudden and inteuse culd, would
term hail, by which the air would be thrown down
until tiie general power of tbe current tossed it up
again Prot Wioe had assured him that once, when
ballooning, he was caught in a thunder-shower, and
was taken up three or four times, and thrown out
each time, so circulating just like a hails'orm.
prof. Henry’s views were controverted by Judge
Butle,'. of Connecticut, and a good humored discus
sion ensued.
Dr. J. U. Gibbon quoted tbe acoounts of several
travellers, showing that ludiau corn (zea mays) is
probably indigenous to Africa and Asia as well as
to America, confirming the inference by a compa
rison of their accounts with the most ancient re
cords of literature and monumental inscriptions.
Dr. Gray thought that Dr. Gibbon had not
proved the point he wished to establish.
The liev Dr. I G. Morris, of Baltimore, gave an
account es a catalogue about to be published by tbe
Smithsonian Institution in which he enumerates
about I turn species of North Ameiican moths and
buttertlies, with refeieuce to descriptions in various
printed works of American and Foreign Entomolo
gists.
Mr. Clark of Cambridge, made some remarks
on the recently revived doctrine of equivocal
generation ; generation without the intervention of
an egg
I>.. Hitchcock read a paper on a geological phe
nomenon near Duke Meinphramagog, where a mass
of granite overlies a foseiliferous rock, injeotiug
dikes downward into the limestone.
Sir Win. E Loxan, confirming statements of Dr.
Hitchcock, gave his reasons tor supposing thegran
ile of Marne to be older than the coal, but newer
than the limestone. He afterwards gave a sketob
ot his recent personal observations of the connec
tion between the geology of V’erinont and of Can
ada.
in the section of Physics, Prof. Brocklesby read
a paper describing several instances of fiozeu wells,
three at Owego, in one o* which toe ice was two
test thick m March , one in Otis, Berkshire ooun
ty, Mass , and one in Brandon.
Prof. Horsford, in a paper on the alleged occur
rence ot saud in maple sugar, showed that although
sugar was olten enough adulterated with saud, atnl
the solid was sometimes a deposition of crys'als of
tartrate of lime which were thrown down during
the pioceesof maple-sugar making
in the eveulug, the address of the retiring Presi
dent. the Kov. Dr Caswell ot Brown Dniversity,
was delivered in Hampden Hall. In the course of
his remarks be said, that American astronomy dates
from 1761, and has always been one of the sciences
most successfully cultivated in this country. Tbe
application ot astronomy, though thus early was
followed by no considerable active work until 181(1.
But siuce then several observatories have been
built and equipped iu a manner which will compare,
favorably with the old and reuowned observatories
of Europe. The great refractor at Cambridge ia
eecoud to none in tbe world , the meridian ctrole
there is of exquisite workmanship. The telescope
at Cincinnati tine the highest place in the seoond
rack. The National Observatory at Washington
an equatorial, a copy of the renowned instru
ment at Dorsat. After nliudiug to the higher work
winch bad oeen accomplished by Bowditch and La
PlacO,and by those whose living presence forbade
the m.-ntion of their names, he called the attention
ot astro.-'owen to a thorough preparation to observe
the trails.’ of Venus in 1871. Prof. Airy had al
ready statec 1 that he looked to this country tor the
most va uatue observations on this transit, which it
was hoped wonkl solve for us tbe great problem of
the distance of the fiun.
Fourth Dai —On Saturday, in the National
History Section, Prot. Asa Gray spoke on Ihe simi
larity between the Flora of North-Eastern Asia and
Eartarn North America. He stated tbe curious
tact that Ibe Flora of J span was much mote like
our own, than like the Flora of countries adjacent
to Japan. Throwing out the cosmopolites, and ex
amining only those species whioh were peculiar,
there were only five species peculiar to Europe and
Japan, agatttst fifty six pecular to North Eastern
America and Japan Some plants which had a
limited habitat in the United States were also found
in J span.
K Field, Esq , read a short paper, in which be
opposed the idea of generally attributing the great
i.issii footprints to euormous birds, and maintained
that they were the tracks of a sort of kangaioo rep
tile. walking generally ou their bind legs, but oc
casionally briugiug down their comparatively small
fore legs He showed several specimens which sus
tained his theory, and pointed out grooves caused
by the dragging oi the tail of the reptile. Mr Field
is the owner of a farm from whioh most of tbe foot
prints have been taken.
In the section of Physics Prof. Biche of tbe
Uoasl Survey, presented a Memoir on the Distribu
tion of Temperature in the Gulf Stream in tbe
Florida Channel.
Prof. Peirce •'tiered some remarks on the history
of opinions ou the physical nature of comets.
The skeleton of a loesil whale found in Vermont,
and brought down for exhibition by E. Hitchcock,
jr.. attracted a great deal of attention.
Ou Saturday the Association made an excursion
to Amherst. On reaching Amherst the Association
fouudthe students drawn up with band and ban
ner—tbe motto of which was, “Honor to Science”
—•to receive them. El
Tbe members of the Association were escorted
bv the students to the College and tbe Cabinet.
TLe great attraction of the latter collection is the
large number of specimens of Ornitnyicbnitee, the
tceeti footprints of the colossal birds, which orna
meuted by gone age* when the sandstone ot tbe
Connecticut valley was as yet only red sand. A
vast cumber of tracks are exhibited of all sixes up
te nearly a toot in length, occupying the whole of a
large ball. Nothing is more striking than six or
eight tracks, about two mchee deep and nearly a
foot long, s'tretecon along in a continuous rock,’as
the great bird walked or waded on bis way to some
mighty rnea; Prof Hitcboock himself pointed

widow Brulon, died tbeie three aaye ago at the age
of eighty-eight. She was the daughter, the sister

with great courage, and received two wounds
Perceiving that ammunition began to iail, she left
the tort at midnight tor Cain, halt a league distant,
roused up about sixty women, loaded each of them
with as much ammunition as they oouid carry, and
led them bar k to the fort, by which the defence was
prolonged tor forty eight hours, and toe possession
of it maintained. Some time after, at the siege of
Calvi, she was working a 16 pounder in the bastion
when she received a wottud which compelled her
to renounce Uie career ot arms She soon after en

Tbe New Cure for Meat.
Tallahassee, Aug. 4, I?M>.
M'uri bditon —ln tbs Charleston Courier, of
August 2d, is a notice of a“. Yew Method ‘of curing
meat, for which a certain firm in Cincinnati have
obtained a patent. However justly they may be
entitled to tne pecuniary benefit arising from their
patent —a personal advantage which in oar latitude
is cot commonly taken by inventors—they caopot
rightly claim the distinction of priority in its dis
covery or practice. It is within a few months of
ten years since my friend Lewis LeConte, now de
ceased, consulted me upon the anatomical possibili
ty of saturating tbe entire animal by injectingjbrine
through the carotid artery, and, after a decided
affirmative from me, put into successful practice
this now called “new method This he continned
to do from the winter of 1849- ‘SO to that of 18dl-’52
inclusive, three successive years. Nor did the idea
originate with him ; for, as he told me, he had read
that at a>. Agricultural Fair somewhere in Europe,
there was exhibited a leg of mutton cured in thu
way, aDd the question was then asked, “Why not
core bacon so J”
Intending to attend the Fair of the Southern Cen
tral Agricultural Society, held at Macon Ga, in the
fall of 1852, Mr. LeConte had laid by half a dozen
ot hie choicest hama for exhibition. He would also
have made kDown and explained tbe process of cur
ing. But, aias for his family and the community in
which be lived— for he was one of the roost useful
and public spirited citizens of Liberty oounty —tbe
week before tbe Fair, by a sad and terrible accident
his life wss suddenly terminated, and the world at
large deprived of this useful information, though in
hie county it was almost universally known.
In April, 1851, I saw him salt three bogs by this
process in about ten minutes, and immediately they
were cut up and hung in the emoke house, then
heated with fire and smoke, and all were perfectly
cured. I observed the thermometer the same day
at II o’clock, A. M.. and the mercury etood atßff J
Fab. Tbue the “method” proved successful under
the severest test.
To many of my friends the above will be but a
repetition of facts they have for several years past
heard me relate, but to the public generally they
may be interesting.
I will add that tbe process is by no means difficult,
as you will understand when I say that Mr. Le-
Conte’s negro did it ail. Very respectfully,
G. Trocp Maxwell.
How to Avoid the Dasoer of Liobtsisg
The following seasonable advice is from the Scien
tific American:
The earth and atmosphere are saturated with
electricity, which ordinarily remains in a state of
equilibrium. When this condition is disturbed we
have the phenomena of thunder storm —which is
simply an effort of nature to restore the electric
equilibrium between the atmosphere and the earth.
Tbe atmosphere in such rases is con vert ed into a
huge Leyden jar; the lightning is simply disrup
tive discharges through tbe intervening air and
thuDder is the sound caused by the violent and sud
deu compression of the air. producing waves, hence
the long continued roll like tbe discharge of artille
ry. Lightning is tbe most subtle and irresistible
power of nature. A single flash can shiver the tali
mast of the war ship that might bid defiance to can
nonade, or resd a lofty oak of tbe forest to splinters
in an instant , .nd a single bolt has toppled the tall
chnrcb to dust in the twinkling of an eve. What
is the puny power of man Before such a mighty
agent ? It is physically frail as a feather or a trem
bling leaf Armed in the panoply of science, how
ever, man, like a weak but akilitul genera., can
maneuver nis forcee against the otherwise deeiruc
tive power and convert danger into c mparative
saety.
This discovery was made when Franklin proved
the indentity ot lightning and eieotricity with his
little kite Eieotricity possesses the peculiar pro
perty of flowing quietly along or“througb what are
called “conductors.” such as copper, gold, iron,
&c., and taking advantage of this, the American
philosopher suggested the erection oi tall rods of
■run or copper on houses or ships, to tap the Leyden
jars of the atmosphere, and convey their charge
quietly to tbe earth. The suggestion carried cut
has saved thousands of liveß aud millions’ worth of
property, hence all houses should be provided with
conductors ; but as is the case now, perhaps the
great majority of buildings will always be misap
plied with such agencies. Iu all such cases, it
should never be forgotten, the lightning always
seeks .<> pass to the earth by prominent conductors,
hecce we have an explanation of tbe cause why
trees, masts of ships, steeples of churches, towers,
aud chimneys are often Btruck, and why the per
sons referred to the above should not have been
standing so near the fire place on tbe occasion of a
thunder storm which cost them their lives.
In such storms, persons in bouses should sit or lie
in some place as far distant as possible from the
chimney, and the most exposed parts of the wall—
tbe middle of the room, If it is large, is the safest
locality. Sailors on tbe sea should keep as far from
the mast as possib e, aud farmers iu the fields should
never seek shelter under trees. Horizontal strokes
cf lightning sometimes take place, and several per
sons have been struck while sitting at an open
window during thunderstorms. Every window of
a room in whioh persons are sitting, iu snob cases,
should oe closed ; a flash of the fluid, wbich would
pass throkgh an opeu window iuto an apartment,
will be conducted down throu h the floor and wall
to tbe earth ts the window is shut. We have thus
given directions to be followed by the persons du
ring the prevalence of lightning, aDd we have set
forth tbe science of the questions, so that all may
not only see the reasonableness of our remarks, but
the seasonabteness.
Terrible Conflict with a Catamount.—
Tbe dwelling of Mr. Thomas 8. Bislaud, of this
parish, was lately tbe scene of a most strange and
desperate encounter with a catamount in which
several negroes were severely bitten, and much
alarm created amongst the occupants of the house.
The plantation is one of the oldest on tbe Dai ou,
and the dwelling an ble one, is located amidst a
oluster of live and water oaks, with a tew pecan
and other trees of the forest. Eicept a few ever
greens that skirt the bayou, there is nothing in the
shape of a lurking place for such an animal nearer
than the swamp on either side in the rear of the
cultivated fields. Some two weeks since a negro
woman heard a noise in the cabin lot above the
dwelling where a servant or two lived, and upon
repairing to the Bpot was met by a strange animal,
whereupon she beat a retreat, pursued leisurely by
the monßter. The steward came out, attracted by
her cries, and seeing the animal returned for hie
master's gun, and discharged the first load, inflict
tug a slight wound. The eecoud charge did not
take effect, and frightened at the approach of tbe
fearless antagonist, he threw down bis gun to fly,
but bad hardly turned ere it fastened upon hie back
wilh a bound and He'zed bim by the neck, in whioh
situation be rushed iuto the house, calling loudly
for assistance. His master, who had not yet
dressed, peeped out, aud alarmed for bis family,
closed the door again, doubtless deeming discretion
the better part of valor.
Satisfied with having prostrated his firs’ antago
nist, who lay helpless on the floor of tne hall, his
oatami-uiitehip inspected the princely apartments
•in the first and when the negroes arrived from
the sugar bouse, he seated himself on the front
piazza and calmly surveyed some dozen or more of
them. Satisfied with his scrutiny he entered tbe
parlor or sitting-room, and took formal possession,
and when the door was opeued by a negro man, he
flew at him and seized him by the throat. The
negro was a powerful man, and after being severely
lacerated, got him under his feet, when four balls
were tired into his head from a revolver in the haul
of a bystander. The overseer, who had now
reached the spot, deeming him dead, ordered tbe
negro to remove his feet, when, to tbe amazement
of all present, he sprang upon a third negro, but
was knocked off by a blow from a olub, ana finally
killed by a loud of buckshot from a gun, opportune
ly brought by the overseer.
This is certainly one of the most singular conflicts
of tbe kind we ever heaid of, occurring, as it did,
in a dwelling removed apparently from all danger
from the inroads of such animals. We hear that
the proprietor inteLds preserving the skin, stuffed
iu a glass case, as a trophy to be shown to bis
visitors ; and really, the circumstances nnder
whioh it was obtained, will surround it with no little
interest It was fortunate that no little children
were abont, as they must have fallen an easy prey
to so resolute aud ferocious an enemy. He seems
to have been avo v large animal ot his species,
equaling in bulk and weight a medium-sized dog.

The Camel in the United States - The Boston
Courier cone udee an interesting and discriminating
article on the introduction of canads into this coun
try with the so lowing remark: —
The time has come for attempting, on an ample
scale, the breeding and general introduction of
camels into this country. This should bs done by
the government directly, or under tbe immediate
direction of those public officers woo ba ’e been
successful iu the treatmeut aud employment of the
camei, even beyond t e most sanguine anticipa
tions. So long as railroads across the vast plains
and deserts, and mountain regions whioh lie be
tween us and the Pacific, are for various reasons
impossible, tbe camel will be found an efficient
substitute for that mode of transportation; and it is
believed that a good portion of the vast sums now
expended for army transportation to the distant
poets and more distant points where our scattered
army is oalled to operate, might be saved by the
employment of this patient, powerful, docile, and
incomparably useful animal.
It seems to be generally admitted that the ex
periment of acclimating the camel, and putting it
to profitable use in this country, has been, or at any
rate promises to be very successful. “The cost of
importation,” says the Courier, “has been much
less than was originally estimated ‘, the animals are
found much more tractable, and are mere easily
applied to tbe various kinds of labor for whioh they
are wan’ed, than was anticipated; the acclimation
of tbe oam* Is is effected without hazard to their life
or strength; and no serious obstacle, so far, is
found to their introduction and use for many im
portant purposes.’ It is now proposed to make au
additional importation. Two importations have
already been made, and the whole number at pre
sent in the country is about sixty. They were all
brought from tbe Mediterranean. The attention
of government is now directed to Mongolia, where
tbe animals exist iu great numbers and are remar
kably hardy, and are sub|ect to almost as gTeat
changes of temperature as they will be liable to
cere They can be brought easily through the
North Pacific ocean to California —A'. Y. Com.

Tee Milky Wat.— The milky way forms the
gram set feature of the firmament. It completely
encirclee the whole fabric of the skies, and sends
its light down upon ns, according to the beet obeer
vations, from no less than 18,000,000 of suns. These
are planted at various distances, too remote to be
more than feebly understood ; but their light, the
medium of measurement, requires for its transit to
our earth periods ranging from ten to a thousand
years Such is the sum of the great trutii reveai
ed to us by the two Herechele, who, with a zeal
which no obstacle oould daunt, have expi red every
part of the prodigious circle. Sir William Her
schel, after accomplishing his famous section, be
lieved that he bad gaged the milky way to its low
est depth affirming that he could follow a cluster of
stare with hie telescope, constructed expressly for
the investigation, as far back as would require 330,-
000 years for the transmission of its light. But,
presumptuous as it may seem, we must be permit
ted to doubt this assertion, as the same telescope,
in the same master hand, was not sufficiently pow
erful to resolve even the nebuiis in Orion. Nor
must we forget that light, our on y due to tbo*e un
searchable regions, expands and deoompoees in its
progress, and coming from a point so remote, its ra
dian: waves would be dispersed in space. Thus the
reflection is forced upon us, that new clusters and
systems, whose beaming light will never reach our
earth, still throng beyond and that, though it is
permitted to man to behold the immensity, he shall
never see the bounds of creation.

Summary Esd cp s Pirate. —The sloop-of-war
Villa de Btlboa, which left this port a few days
since for Kio de Janeiro, shortly before arriving in
the latitude ot that port, made” in tne effing a bri

brigatine opened fire on the sloop, and tha Spaniard
soon found that he had to cope with a pirate. The
fight lasted for eight home, the crew of the brigan
tine displaying prodigies of valor, always succeed
ing in their efforts not to present their broadside to
the sloop. At last, the Spaniard, by a rapid
manoeuvre, snrptised the enemy and fired a chain
shot, which carried sway a good part of the bul
warks and mainmast of tbs brigantine. The
Spaniard then boarded, and captured the pirate bv

martial was held on the spot, by order of which the
pirate captain was hanged to the yardarm, and the
whole of the crew were shot and thrown overboard
The brigantine was a fine vessel and mounted

LAW SCHOOL.
r | 1 HE year wiU be divided Into two sessions cf five
X months each, commencing on the MONDAY
in OCTOBER aud the first MONDAY iu MARCH.
The Students will be divided into two classes, Ju
nior and Senior.
The Junior Class will read Smith’s Elements of the
Law. Blackstone’s Commentaries, (selected parts)
Hale’s History of the Common Law, Coke Litt., (select,
ed parts) Williams or Real Property Reyes oh Realty,
Smith on Contracts, Williams on Personal Property
Keyes on Chattels, Stephens and Gould on Pleading,
Greenleafs Evidence, (I vol.) Broom s Legal Max ! ms.
The Senior class will read Kent’s Com., (selec ed
parts,) Chltty’s Pload'n*, (part 1 vol.) Adams Equity,

Statutory Construction, Archbold’s Criminal Pleadiog,
Smith’s Mercantile Law, Bmith’s Leading Cases, and
White and Tudor’s Leading Oases wHI be read in con
nection with the t*xt books.
The cour e is imperfect, but Students are now in so
mneh haste for the Bar, that they cannot wait until they
become well grounded in the law. The most that I
hone therefore to do is to get the student through the
difficulties of “ a beginning,” and 10 imbue him with
such a professional enthusiasm that it will almost with
certainty lead him to knowledge and to success.
The plan of instruction will be by examinations upon
tbe text books with Buch explanations and amplifica
tions as may be necessary, and by moot courts.
Books cau be bought here at the northern catalogue
prices. It would be better for young men who may in
tend to join eiiher of the classes, to inform me at least a
month before the commencement of thu term, so that
the supply of books may not fall short of ihe demand.
The tuition price will be SSO a session, payable in ad
vance. Board can be had at about S2O a month.
Young men who wish to commence or continue tbe
study of the Law before the first of October, may place
themselves under my charge at any time.

PHARMACEUTICAL
Dr. Little’s inodjne Cough Drops
A netc and certain cure for Coaghs, Colds , Asthma , Pain
in the Breast ; also. Croup, Whooping Coughs ,
Colds, etc., amongst Children,
This is a pleasant remedy to take, producing immedi
ate relief, and in nine out of tan cases a prompt cure. It
exercises the most controlling influence over Coughs and
Irritation of the Lungs of any remedy known—often
stopping the most violent in a few hours, or at most in a
day or two. Many cases thought to be decidedly con
sumptive, have been promptly cured by usin* a few
bottles, and the wearing Little s Strengthening Planters
on the Chest. As an anodyne expectorant, without as
tringing the bowels, it stands paramount to all cough
mixtures.
DOLLAR VERMIFUGE
Prepared and put np in bottles and vials only by W.
G. Little. In using, nothing else is required to relieve
children of worms ; and. besides being one of the best
and cheapest ever offered to ihe public, its frequent use
in families will tave mac l, trouble and expense, as well
as the lives of many children; for eight out of ten of
every ten cases generally require it.
DR LITTLE S FRENCH MIXTURE.
This is prepared from a French Recipe (in the forms of
Nos. 1 and 2; the first for the acute, and No. 2 for the
chronic stage.) that has been much improved upon in
this country; and from its unexampled success is likely
to supersede every other remedy for the cure of the dis
eases of the Kidneys and Bladder, Gonorrheal, Blencor
heal, and or Fluor Albus Affections. This
extensive compound combines properties totally diffe
rent in uste and character from anything to be found in
the United States Pharmacopea or in private practice ;
and in point ct safety and efficiency is not rivaled in
America.
DR. LITTLE’S RINGWORM AND TETTER
OINTMENT.
Hundreds of cases of Chronic Tetters, Scald Head,
and diseases of the skin generaUy, have been cured by
this remedy, and since the introduction of the No. 2 pre
paration (being stronger) scarcely a case has been found
that it will not effectually eradicate in a short time. For
the cure of Cancerous Sores and U cera, it is applied in
the form of Plasters, and is almost infallible.
Physicians are rtferred to the 13th page of Dr. Little's
pamphlet, to the catalogs sos medicine of the Materia
Medica, that he uses in eompunding his different reme
dies, and asked to say it they are not the chief reliauce
of the p ofession. as he himself has practised medicine
extensively for more than tec years, before retiring to
the drug business.
In more than two hundred places in Georgia, and in
all the Southern States, they are to be had -. and as
there are scamps about who are counterfeiting his reme
dies by palming off their own or something eise, by using
the same or similar names, (for no patent is wanted or
secured amid the absurd pp tents of the day,) let all be
cautioned to look well tor the signature of the proprietor,
and also his name blown into the glass of each bottle.

THE LIVER ~
IIV VIG ORATOR
PREPARED BY DR. SANFORD.
Compounded entirely from Gums,
IS one of the o?st purgatives and Liver Medicines now
before the public, that acts aa a Cathartic, easier,
milder, snd more effectual than any other medicine’
known. It is not on y a Cathartic, but a Liver remedy
acting first on the Liver to ject it morbid matter, then
on the stomach and bowels to carry off that matter, thus
accomplishing! wo purposes effectually, without any of
the painful feelings experienced in the operations of
most Cathartics. It strengthens the system at the same
time that it purges it; aud wnen taken daily in moder
ate doses, will strengthen and build it up with unusual
eapk'ty.
x’he LIVER is of the •principal regulators of the
human body; and when it Hr performs its functions well
tt e powers of the system r*l are fuily developed. The
stomach is almost entirely depeuden ton the healthy
action of the Liver for the w proper performance of its
functions when the atom r, aeh is at fault, the bowels
are t fault, and the who e system suffers in conse
quence of one organ—the j Live:—having ceased to
do its duty. For the diseas es of that organ, ono of the
proprietors has made it j his study, in a practice of

BALM OF SAVANNAH!
FOB
Cleansing, Nourishing & Beautifying
THE HAIR.
IN presenting the BALM OF SAVANNAH to the
public, the proprietor does so without any of the
hesitation attending the introduction of a -.ew and un
tried article, for it has now been fifteen years before the ‘
public, and each year has added to it* popularity The
demand for it having increased so far beyoed my pre
vious facilities for its manufacture, the proprietor has re
cently completed arrangements for producing it cn a
more extensive scale, and at the tame time adding to ita
former excellence, by the result of a long practical ex
perience in its use.
The following vouchers are gentlemen well known,
and can be attested :
Savannah, August 3,1858.
J. M. Haywood, Agent—Dear Sir: I cheerfully
comply with my promise, to g ve you my opinion ox the
merits of your Balm ot Savannah. After using it for
some two years. I m prepared to speak from experience,
and do not hesitate to pronounce it the best prepara
tion for the hair that I have ever used. For several
years I had suffered from dandruff, which, at times, es
pecia ;ly during bad health, threatene to destroy my
hair I tried many remedies, which had be:?n recom
mended to me, without benefit, until I made a trial of
your Balm, which not only removed the dandruff, bnt
kept my head free from it, at the same ti me stimulating
the growth of the hair and imparting to it a healthy ap
pear&nce. I have recommended it to my friends, simi
larly afflicted, who, in every instance, experienced siuii
lar benefits from its use. I esteem it a pleasant and
convenient article for dressing the hair, possessing most
of the virtues claimed for the popular cosmetics of the
day, with none cf their deleterious qualities. I feel con
fident that it only needs to be known to the public to
beoome universally popular.
Very respectfully yours,
w. T Thompson,
Editor of Savannah Morning News.
To ALL WHOM IT MAT CONCERN :
Tne object of this is to state that I have, for some
months, used Mr. Haywood's Hair Tonic—known as
the Balm of savannah—ana have found it incomparably
super.or to any oth r article of the kind. Its ue twice
a week is quite sufficient, not only to disengage the
dandruff, 4c , from the hair, but to prevent its formation
in any applicable quantity. It maintains the hair too,
in that moist anc pleasant condition, which so many
other specifics pretend to do, but almost always fail—in
so far aB my experience goes. J. L. Locke,
Late Editor of the Savannah Republican
May 26, 1858.
Mr. J. M Haywood, Agent :It give3 me. pleasure +Q
certify to the unequalled qualities of your Balm of g-.
vannah. It is the best tonic for the hair, as weil as , te
most effectual exterminator of dandruff I have aver t
My hair has been inclined t > fail out sir ce my att a of
Yellow Fever in 1854, and among all the prevent ivea I
have tried, the Balm of Savannah has been mOB .
successful. This much I say most cheerfully.
Yours, 4c., P W. Alex a vd sr
