•’HE CITY OF COLUMBUS—V3. SHIN
PLASTERS.
We have frequently since our connection
with the press of this city, adverted to the
great evil of Siiinplasters in out monetary
system. We have pointed to it as a viola
tion of the written laws of the land, and as
nn equally grow violation of those sound
principles of currency, which whenever
jostled, entail certain los3 and injury upon
tlie community which tolerates it. Wo are
lißppy that the public authorities of ‘the city
have turned their attention to this subject.
At a late meeting of Council, Alderman
•Stewart offered the following resolutions for
the consideration of the Board.

Wc undertake to say that tlie principles
here enunciated are sound and defensible.
They have oil r hearty concurrence and shall
have whatever weight this press possesses
in aid of their complete establishment and
‘he cxtincti in of a “ practice” rightly tetm
d by the resolutions “unjust &: dangerous.”
Wc are surprised at the action of Council
upon ibis sul>iect. We should have snp
} osc 1 that a set of resolutions embodying
propositions so obviously just and proper,
would at once have commended themselves
by the irresistible force cf their own truth
to the iustan* adoption of an intelligent body
I men. That a system of individual Shin
plasters contravenes the public laws of the
find, we supposed every body knew, and
the City Council, ns ex-officio conservators
f the peace, and particularly o‘> guardians
>f the interests of this community, where
’he nuisance complained of most prevails
had an uudoubicd authority to consider the
Subject.
But in the nbsenco of express law, the
system of Shiujilastets is an indefensible

tsp>n the plainest principles of curefffcy and
political economy.
per as n currency that can only be
conferred as a franchise by tlip sovereign
power of n Slate. We have ou?%loubts of
the wisdom and constitutionality of tlie grant
of this power, even when done through the
solemn |bims nnd sanctions of law. It is
to the public the most dangerous of powers,
and should be exercised with the utmost
care nnd prudence. We all remember the
evil days of Bank repudiation and suspen
sion—the doleful era of a paper currency,
bearing falsehood on its face, and resting up
on the “ baseless fabric of a vision” for a
foundation. We have seen what disastrous
influences the evil worked upon the value
of property, upon the exchanges, and upou
?‘ia public morals, and how its baneful ex
•vple extended to broken faith, discredit and
repudiation from tire humblest contract be
tween man and man, upto more than oncof
111* sovereign States of this Union; and
how it was only* the extraordinary firmness
of tlmsc who then fortunately-administered
(lie General Government, that the moral
taint of irredeemable paper currency did not
reach the Treasury of the General Govern
ment. All these evils grew out of inflated
credit and an irresponsible paper money
system. Yet these were legalized issues of
paper money. They were restricted by
charters, and as legislators supposed, the
safety of the community was amply guard
ed aud protected by the provisions of those
charters.
We of Columbus arc now in the midst of
the very causes which produced these evils,
with the aggravation in our case, that our
•ShinpiastCr currency, is issued not only
without the sanctions, but against the ex
press commands of the Law.
Take tbe example of Mr. Winter, who
although the largest manufacturer of Shin
plasters in this community, Stands upon pre
cisely the same footing with the smallest of
this class. He issues bits of paper in the
shape of bills of exchange, dated in Florida
and drawn upon the Bank of St. Marys’
office at Savannah , for 25 cents ot 50 cents,
to be paid in gold or silver coin—on the mar
gin they are proclaimed to be redeemable
at Mr. Winters’ office in New York at 2
percent. They are stamped with the im
age of the manufacturer and put lortfi as

Winter’s life. For let any holder oft hereto

and is it certain that be redeem

smallness of the necessity of
declaring one of them would cost
more toget by^^^rthan the recovery would

The whole system is a private speculation
upon the gullibility of the community. Mr.
Winter exchanges his credit, without interest
for the credit of other people with interest,
which he takes care shall be doubly secured
by endorsements, and therefore better thin
his own, or he would not take it. The pub
lic trade credits with him upon the principle
ot giving something for uothing—he gets in
tcrest oil his side, the public pays it—yet one
credit is as good as another. And this sys
tem passes lor a money loan. It is only a
barter of credits, of good credits for doubtful
ones, for Air. \V inter will have good ones,
aud in the nature of things, it is impossible
lor the public at large to know how good his is
The resolutions ol Alderman Stewart pro
pose to explode this false system so far as
the authority of the city Corporation is con
cerned. They propose to refuse to take into
Hie public Treasury, individual shinplasters,
in the lieu of money. It ii the duty of the
Council to take this step to protect the city
1 rcusury Jrom the risk of loss. It ispropos
ed to instruct the Oily Attorney to prosecute
ihc violators ofUl3 Law upon this subject in
the City. This is also tlie clear right afld
duty of the Council as a board of Magistrate?
The Grand Jury at the last term presented
•the subject as a nuisance, and the solictor of
the Cireuit has at all times the power upon
the appearance o f a pubiio prosecutor to pre
fer billßofindictmenfforevery violation of the
Law. The latter is the Beadiest way to
reach th-j remedy, if the paper-ists do not
take the hint and withdraw from circulation
the paper trash which would and should be
fi led with unchangeable dollars. Tne ac
tion of the Common Council is important in
arousing the public attention to this evil. No
man knows the enormity ol if, in extent. It
iias been intimated in one of Hie public prints
and we have heard of no denial, that Mr.
Winter’s issues of this sort amount to GO or
70,000 Dollar?. It would be the same in
principle, were the amount only SI,OOO. The
safety of the community demands an arrest
ol it, and tire public owe much to the indepen.,
dent sense cf duly which has induced Alder
man Stewart to seize it by the horn?. The
purity of that officer’s motives, and the known
scrupulous ronsrientiousmes of his character
are guarantees, that in this matter, he is but
doing bis duty for his duty’s sake. We doubt
not the proceeding is exceedingly unpalatable
to Mr. Winter. But that gentleman, who
knows so well how to look after his own in
terests, should not be surprised at the exhibi
tion ofa similar carefulness on tlie part of the
public. The latter are slow to find out their
wrongs, and-the cunning of one shrewd head
may fora long time use them for his benefit
—but when they do wake up, individual gain
and interest must go down before the consid
eration of salus jublici.
READ THE ADVERTISEMENTS.
We olten receive a complaint from our
country friends, at the space which the ad
vert isetnents occupy in our paper, and by
many it is looked upon as depriving them of
so much more interesting matter. To such,
we slate, that but for the advertising patron
age, which a paper receives, it would not he
able to support itself, the subscription list
proving a source of but comparative small
revenue. Bat apart from this, advertisement?
ot themselves will be found to be cf great
importance, and we venture the assertion
that the man who. attentively peruses them
receives instruction am! benefit. A newspaper
with a good advertising patronage has been
Lkened to the dinner table cf a well ordered
Hotel; the substantial dishes—-those of which
you can cut and come again—are generally
placed on side tables, whilst the entrees —the
mere ornamental parts of ijm repast,are spread

a first course, he must not altogether omit
them, else he will not have partaken ofsome of
the most nuiricious parts of the banquet, those
who do give attention to them, are amply re
paid by the great bargains it opens to them,
and the advantageous disposing of their own
products, in fact, tiie editorial substance of a
paper, it but dross and tinsel, the advertise

FOREIGN RELATIONS. •
Since our last publication, intelligence of
important events has reached us from Wash
ington. The long talked ofrnotice” has
passed the House of Representatives by an
overwhelming majority—463 yeas to 54
nays. The resolutions are in these words:

Britain, tliat ihe Convofltion between tiie U. State* j

Fite exciting debate which occurred on the
I ° ]
(day the vote was taken. We ,'earn that ‘.he
! House was crowded and the vote was looked
Vfor with the most intense interest. We
: congratulate our readers, as a part of this
greaWountry V!'°n this most auspicious
j event. \lt exhibits a union of American
j feeling rising superior to all
! parly consiaettiions, triumphantly sustain
ing the recorninWdation of the Executive,
and standing linn\d upright as it becomes
the Representatives c>£ twenty millions of
people, in a determined purpose to assert
American rights and honAc At the same
time, the resolutions breath the pacific
spirit, which has characterized every step
of the course of the administration, and which
undoubtedly animates the whole body of
the American people. Never have this Na
tion and Government stood upon higher
ground, at home and abroad than it now
occupies, though its Administrative, Diplo
matic and Legislative policy upon the Ore
gon question. So far all departments have
come up to that adage of wisdom in action,
nuaviter inmodo, fort iter in re. Mild and
firm has been tlie motto, and we sincerely
hope that the American Senate, will not, in
obedience to tiie hopes and predictions of
the croakers upon this subject, mar the uni
ty of the glorious pictute and laltei in the
duty of American Salesmen.
In addition to this vole we have receiv
ed anew chap'er of Diplomatic correspond
ence. The principal pan of it, embracing
the notes between tlie British Minister and
Mr.Buchanan, will be found in our columns.
Mr. Buchanan's reasons for refusing arbi*
tration are unanswerable, such as must
satisfy every American citizen, and such
as are equally of force now, os when Mr_
Calhounon the 21st January, 1845, reject
ed a similar overture from Mr. Packenltam-
It is almost impossible to divest one’s mind
‘of the idea in reading the British Minister’s
letters, that his two offers, first to submit to
arbitration, for the purpose of an “equita
ble partition” of the territory; and second,
to submit first the title, and then if neither
country was found to have a perfect title to
the whole, to submit to an equitable parti
tion ; we say it is impossible to read these
offers without coming to the conclusion that
they were made to be rejected. Air. Pack,
enliarn must have been certain of such a
result, and bis Diplomatic ingenuity has
been exercised to impress upon the world
a semblance of fairness and pacific inten
tion on the part of Great Britain, to add to
the moral force of the British position in the
event of a rupture, and to make it appear
that the American Government, not anima
ted by a spirit of peace and conciliation, was
really instigated by that rapacious desire for
territory, with which legitimate power in
Europe lias slanderously charged it.
The vote upon the “Notice,” and these
Diplomatic passages at Washington, arc
important steps in reaching the conclusion of
this controversy. While another chapter
has been closed, ard while the ground op
controversy is narrowing to a crisis, we see
nothing to lead us to the belief, that war will
be the result. To that class of the defend
ers of American rights nnd honor, whose
opinions and actions have been ftom
the first, squared wiih arithmetical re
ference to the number of British steamers
and the force of British batteries—who at
every exhibition of patriotic firmness on the
part of iliis Government, have been shocked
at its temerity, and held up its hands in pi
ous horror at tlie rashness that dared assert
a right against mighty England—to such,
this correspondence will give new food for
croaking .and Air. Polk will he denounced
in advance for needlessly hurrying this
peaceful and prospering country into the
cruel inhumanities of .war. As an Ameri
can we most devoutly thank Heaven that
such counsellors hold rat now, the destinies
of this Nation iu their hands. Our feeling
is that this Government should do right, de
mand right, and submit to no wrong. If
war ensue from such a course, as Patrick
Henry saiJ when we numbered only three
millions of people, “ let it come, sir, let it
come Is there any man, who would
dodge the contest, on such an issue? No:
nor a woman, rtor-a child with an American
heart. Why, then, all this raven augury
ot evil! What difference does it make how
many ships and guns England can send
here, ifthey are-sent to force us to a compli
ance with unjust and dishonorable term 9 ?
Even were it true, (and vve deny ii,) that
this young and vigorous Nation is no match
for that hoary yet Collosal power ; even
were we the David and site the Goliah, were
she tenfold stronger in the affections of a
contented and loyal working people ; were
site free from the four thousand millions of
debt that press upon her energies; were
her population, and power and resources
quadrupled, would it be an argument why
this Nation should abate one jot or title of
Iter fair, honest and just rights. We have
no patience for this everlasting disparage
ment of America before England. We
say we are as good as she—her match io j
the arts of peace—her equal in courage, for- i
titude, honesty, and all the virtues which ;
constitute prowess and ravish success in war.i
And let us not he charged with idle brava
do. Without occasion, such boastings in
men and nations are ridiculous proofs of
vanity aud weakness. But, when we hear
our country, her power, her dignity, her re
sources, Iter character, underrated, sneered
at and belittled in our streets by American
citizens; it is lime to assert thettuth. And
let us tell those who ridicule the vaunlings
of Americanism, and we have expressed so
much disgust at its exhibitions in Congress,
throughout this Oregin debate, that the most
ofit ließ been provoked, not by England,
hut by English subserviency in this country.
Another war is almost necessary to break the
spell of British superiority in everything, i
which as in the days of our colonial vassal
lage, stifles the patriotism of so many peo
ple in this country*.
But, vve believe there will he no war.—’
Both Governments have shown a disposition
to settle the controversy in peace. If that
spirit continues, and there is no reason why
it should not, the two Governments are en-’
tirely capable of meeting and arranging the
dispute upon principles of justice to each.
It is impossible that both can have a good
title. Under any circumstances, we hope
this country will not place beyond its own
control the adjustment of a question of its
territorial rights, so important as these in
dispute on the Pacific coast of this continent.
THE COURT OF ERRORS.
The following sensible remarks from the
Ma'con Messenger, exhibits a few of the ad
vantages our people will receit* from the
establishment of this Court. (1-cat opposi
tion was at one time manifest a/to its policy,
but we believe, now, that it i/established—

willing to give thesystem astir trial.
“The Supremo Court, Warner,

:be essen’ial in all the otheAtates of the Union ; it
was par iculatly needed injbieorgia, where the mere
dictum of either one of our eleven Judges is the law
for ‘he circuit ever which |e presides. Laws, to ful
fil the offices for which ihiv are designed, must be
unifo‘in, equal, arid genel; which they never could
be in Georgia, so long a;ur judicatures were inde
pendent ol each other, rmd ot any nppel'ate or su
pervisory tribunal. 0-people will now be able to
learn, (what our lawwrs never could tell them.)
what is actually the of the land. One greet
benefit resulting froinlihis knowledge, will be tlie
diminishing iitigat onXfor there is no one cause more
prolific of law suits, fflantiie ‘uncertainly of the law
as it has been adiniuittoied under our defective or
rather absurd syste*. Another advantage conse
quent upon this judtjal reform, will be the improved

profession itself will acquire a more elevated standard.
Law. will he studied, 1 urnt, ami practised as a science
instead of.being followed as a there avocation to ob
tain a livelihood.
A popular error seems to pr-Vail as to the duties of
this Court. Many suppose that issues of fact aie
made up, investigated by ‘he examination ofwttncss
es, and tried by a jury. This is a mistake. The
business of the Court, is merely to interpret the law,
and to decide finally Upon points of law which had
been previously determined by the courts below, but
which 1.-dive been excepted to, as errors, and are sub
mitted to this rev siohary tribunal for correction.
Some misapprehension of the kind must have pre
vailed even among our legislators, for otherwise we
cannot account fur tlie propriety of giving the Court
the ainaulktory character it now has, requiring its
cessions to be held in different par s ofihe State.”
THE EXTENTION OF THE ATLANTIC
AND WESTERN RAILROAD.
Tiie following letter is from Governor
Crawford, in answer toa Committee appoint
ed by l! e Convention that lately assembled
at Nashville, Tennessee, on the subject of
extending the State Rail Road :

Milledjeville , December 27, 1b45. £
Gsnticnnn —l have received yours of tl,e i9ih
i.is'ant, and under tt.e pressure of engagements unu
sually tufm-ruus and requiring personal attention,
am compelled, briefly, to reply to your inqu'ries.-
Before ilia Legislature adjourned, oil tfie morning of
Ujeiodi iiw am, n made tin appropriation of j}Rs,(jiX)
whicii is intended and is sufficient to cover existing
contracts against the Western and Atlantic Railway*.
Additionally, nil ihe p-ofits of the Road were direc

the years 1816-7, founded upon the credit of the
Road alone, was appropriated for its extension to
Cross Plains in this State. From this point a fur
ther extension is clearly expressed in the act, iu
efise the profit of the Hoad will authorize it.
From ibis synopsis ofihe la:e legislation of Geor
gia upon the eubjoct of her rail road, you may arrive
at the. probable, mmo-1 certain conclusion, that this
work will Le extended. Perhaps 1 could add that rio
resource or means will be overlooked by which this
result may b produced. Irrespective of the enter
prise in uhich ilie citizens of Tenmasee. are about to
engage, ami which L eminently calculated to enhance
the benefi sos the Georgia work?, I have ever insist

ibv untoward circumstances, to push our work to

I believe that Georgia will reach {he Tennessee,

already gained by the advance of her wort, though l

ANECDOTE OF DANIEL WEBSTER.
We give the following good anecdote of
Daniel Webster, which we find in the Lon.
don Sun; it is too good to be confined to one
hemisphere.
“ The distinguished man, just before Lafuvette’s
last visit to America, forme i one in a fishing party in
I Massachusetts B iv. fie had been se'ected to de
liver the welcoming speech to the Frenchman on his
approp.ching visit, and during his occupation of haul
ing up codfish and taulog, he was observed to be v< rv j
abstracted. It appeared afterwards that lie must I
have been studying that part of 1113 speech in which
he afterwards addressed La&tyeite, iora gentleman
who was fishing next lnn obseryed him pulling in
his line,"hand over band, with some difficulty, as if a
large fish was hooked, vet without exhibiting any
satisfaction on his face at having captured a prize.
At length the fish was seen approaching the surface
and gleaming through the creea waters like a lively
bladder oi quicksilver : still Webster’s face gave no
smiling welcome ; but just as the fish came to the
surface, be burst out with 4 Venerable man! the re
presentative of the two hemispheres, welcome to our
shores,’and down flopped the ‘mlmstcr cod’ on the
deck 1”
The receipts into the United States Trea
sury during tbe fast quarter of 1845 were—
from customs, about $9,137,200; from lands
§830,000 ; and from miscellaneous sources
$31,500 —in all, §9,998,700. ‘I he expendi
tures during same period were $5,703,801

DIPLOMACY AND ASSASSINATION.
Our exchanges from the North, have been ’
filled of late, with particulars of a number of
attempts which have been made to assassin
ate a certain Henry W. Paine, who it would
eeem from hie own statements is in posses,
sion of some important.Diplomatfc secrets; he
was engaged iu the capacity of bearer of
despatches, in a letter which he writes to the
editor of the New York (iii'be, he says:
For reasons b-s? known to myself, I have no
particular love fbrSan’a Anna, end 1 determined to
know wfi.v intrigue he via l ? engaged itt. I broke
the mats of the package, nnd learnt that certain
powers pretending to aci in goed faith with our go
vernment, “-ere. through'their agent.-, manoeuvertns
to thwart some movements ofvitai importance. My
first impulse was to hand the papers to the Secretary
of State, b it cn more impure reflection, I dete/nitn

form them of my possession and kno.> ledge of the
contents of these paper' —propose to deliver them up
for a certain consideration. I did so, and ns mmht
lw expected, my announcement was received with no
little perturbation on ‘heir part. The sum I named
was too hi-jh, and alter much quibbling I left them,
giving them a certain number ol daya to consider my
proposal;—with the prospect that it not accented m
i the end of the time mentioned, the papers would go
1 i..to other hands.

With reference to tiio contents of the papers, 1
will take tiie liberty to remark, that they were of a
nature to enable me to predict, more than six month?
ago, to the Jlon David Henshaw. Messrs. Clinton
I>e Witt of New York, and Granville Parker of
Worcester, my counsellors, and manv others, the
present state of ah” firs in Mexicj ; and 1 now confi
dently state, that within twelve mouths from this date,
Santa Anna will be viceroy of Mexico. And further,
let the Spanish government lcok to it, or Cuba will
change masters. With reference jo my predictions
as San*a Anna’s position'within twelve months,l
wish to insert t'tis clause ; Providing he does not sell,
or hits not sold, J:it knowledge of English intrigue to
the Spanish government.
Os iliis Mr. Paine, we know nothin;-, and
are inclined lo believe less—the itanner in
which he catne into the possession of these
“secrets”—damning him in the eyes cf all
honorable men—for from his own statement
lie broke the seals of the despatches, and
then made overtutes of secrecy as to their
contents, to the parties interested, provided
a certain sum of money was paid him ; in
fact some have shrewediy suggested, that the
so called attempts at assassination, have from
first to last been but humbugs, and a plan of
Mr. P. to worm himself into notoriety. We
merely gtvethe particulars as passing news
of the da}’, and leave our readers to draw their
own infeiances.
A SAD CASE.
In many instances in late years, a mild
form of treatment towards those unfortunate
ly deprived of reason, has proven to be more
successful than the bat barous mode ol con
finement, and whipping.
Miss Dix (a lady who has devoted her
life in ameliorating the condition of the dis
tressed,) Pound in Clinton County, Kentucky
a Lunatic confined in a narrow cell, without
fire or clothing, the reason given for depriv
ing him of them, being, that he tears up his
clothes, when he has them, and would de
stroy his prison house if he had fire ; speak
ing of his condition, a Louisville paper says:
“ Surely there are means of ameliorating hi t hor
rid condition, and it should be done, it must be done.
Is it to be supposed that his family, which is repre
sen'ed as in good circumstances, does not know that
a room may ne warmed without having a fire in it !
How is it possible for his wife and children to sleep
during these biter winer nights when they know
• hat the wretched husband and father is shivering
without bed clothes and without fire, shut up by their
own hands in a double block house, just far enough
from their own comfortable dwelling to prevent their
being annoyed bv his shrieks of distress !”
, IOS THE TIMES.
Messrs. Editors:—l perceive by the SJ
of the “Western Continent,” pub! shed
in Baltimore by Park Benjamin Esq , that a
correspondent cf that paper, writing from
Annapolis Md.*, in speaking of the public build
ings of that place refers to the Governor’s
house, and save, 1 This is (he only house in
the Union provided for a Governor l>y the
Slide.” VV liile 1 would not attempt to im
pugn the motive or veracity of the writer, jus
tice to our own state requires a contradiction to
the above. I cannot boast of the Architecural
design, or Artistlca! finish cf the Capitol of
Georgia, but 1 unhesitatingly declare, that
the house which this Btato has built and furn
ished’for the use of its Governor will bear
critical comparison, lo the splendor of the fin
est dwelling houses.* JUSTICE.
roit THE TIJIE3.
Messrs. Editors:—l noticed in the Times
of last week a nol'ce of the good things at
the Cornucopia, and as far as it went ’tis all
true, but Harris did not go far enough in the
way of the fluids, as he left out in my opinion
the best of all, which I suppose be did not tasle
or he vyouid have felt himself in duly hound
to have mentioned, as many persons on the
cold water principle are also ford of laying
in a supply of the fluids, I mean White and
Ferreis coffee, did you ever taste it? if not
take my advice go and try it, ’tis a head of
any thing 1 ever tasted in the way of coffee.
If you feel fatigued, if thirsty, if cold or it
you have the blues, try it, it will prove a rem
edy ivod!) all the liquors ever made; ’tis rich,
it will suit a gentleman who has drank too
much, oronc who will not drink spirits at all,
and in short Messrs. White and Ferrell cant
be beat at any thing’ the Cornucopia proposes
to pour out. COLD WATER.
The following speaks volumes in favor of
Temperance:
DREADFUL DEATH.
On Saturday last there cameilfthis village
from a neighboring town, on man who
has lomp4>|| n addicted Ip intemperance.
He broughrWftklmn a ejpon ju’r titled with
rum, and stalled toKjgme. The name of
that man may be foims alTftwig our records of
It seems man was sd£n a little
before Saturday, by one of his
neighbors, on his way home. When within
about half a mile of Ins house i:e took a
cross track, and was found on Sunday morn
ing, within sixty or seventy rods ol bio house,
perfectly dead. The snow along his path
showed that he had fallen sixteen times, and
at lasi, unable to rise, he had crawled upon
his hands and knees about forty rods, when
coming to a fence, we believe he managed
to get over it, and fell between it and a snow
bank, and there the poor man perished.

Patmest of Pennsylvania Interest.—
The Philadelphia Inquirer says that the
scene at the Bank of Pennsylvania, on the
2J inst. was quite an animated one. The
Slate Treasurer was in attendance, and the
officers ol the bank were busily engaged in
paying the interest on the State debt. The
concourse cf persons was quite large. A
friend informs us (says the Inquirer) that al
though he was cm the ground early’, yet an
hour and a half elapsed before he came to his
lure, though a gallant spirit was manifested
whenever any ladies made their appearance.

CONSUMPTION.
There is, perhaps, no disease with which ourcoun.
trv is affected, which sweeps off annually so many
victims, as that fell destroyer of the human race—
Consumption. Day after da}’, year after year, the,
insatiate monster hurries to the portals ol the cold
and silent tomb fre.-h added victims to its conquest,
No walk of life is sacred from its blighting infl >ence.
No age is exenr't from its death-dealing shafts.
The oid, the middle aged and the young, all aliie,
are lood for this common enemy of, mankind. The
white haired patriarch, whose life of temperance has
rendered his system impervious to the attacks of oth
er ills, and whose good deeds prepared him fertile
enjoyment of life’s calm evening, finds consumption
fastening its fangs upon his vitals, and tearing him
from a world, ever bright to minds which look com
placently on days well spent.
Is there no help for the afflicted ? No preventive
of the and ingers which beset ns in our changeable and
fickle clime ? We think there may be. And if the
allevations of those who are at least entitled to vera
city, may be believed, there is a preventive and a
remedy.
Wtstar’s Balsam ofWi’d Cherry is offered to a
suffering world as such. It need? not the ‘adventi
tious aid’ of a long string of fictitious certificates to
give it notoriety. Its true value and intrinsic excel
lence are sufficient to entitle it to the Confidence of
the public, and
’ ‘ Waft on to fame’
