COLTTMBTJS: KriiUy Morning, February *, IKSO. I.AKUBNT CITY CIRCULATION. Washburn’s Cirous. Wo are informed that the Circus will remain ami perform hero this afternoon anil to-night. This Company have given much satisfaction to our citizens, anil their performances bespeak the highest proficiency in their exercises. Persons who desire to witness a really excel lent exhibition, and the most creditable teats of skill and activity, would do well to improve the present opportunity. We had a heavy fall of rain on Wednesday night, and our river commenced rising slowly yesterday. The steamer Tampa arrived about noon yesterday, with an assorted cargo, chiefly Northern freight. We understand that she found difficulty in getting up, being frequently aground on sand-bars. The Montgomery Mail expresses its surprise on seeing the amount of groceries at the Hail road depot ready for shipment up the country. It states that twenty-five cars, laden with western produce, left for (Icorgia on Monday ; and it intimates that the locomotives on the road are not sufficient for its present freight business. Mail Robbers Sentenced W. If. Lewis has been sentenced to two years’imprisonment for robbing the U. S. muil at. Cahnwba, Ala. Daniel 11. Smith lias been sentenced to ten years’ imprisonment for a like offence in Monroe county, Ala. Cotton Burnt. Two platform cars attached to a freight train, on the b. C. Railroad, eachcontaihing 50 bales of Cotton, were destroyed by fire with thecxception of six bales, on .Saturday morn ing about 2 o’clock, when eight miles on this side of Bnuichville. The price of passage on the steamships be tween Savannah and New Vork has been rais ed to $25, the oldcharge. Wo doubt whether theVhangc will increase the profits of the com p any. Temperature at]Zoro in Georgia! Tlio “cold snap” of the early part of this week was very severe in the upper portions of Georgia and Alabama. Those sections expe rienced a severity of cold never known before, ami were made to realize the extremity of a usual New York or Massachusetts winter.— The Romo Courier of Tuesday last says : “On last Sunday night snow foil at this place to the depth of four inches; yesterday morning was the coldest ever known here.— The Mercury stood at zero in Fureuheit’s Thermometer. Since Christmas it has been very uniformly cold and for the greater part of the timo intensely so. This winter, for protracted coldness and large amounts of snow and ice, liasnot had its peer within “the mem ory of the oldest inhabitant.” We learn from the Florence (Ala.) Gazette, that during the greater part of last woek the Tennessee rivor was so full of running ice at that place that the ferry-boat could not run an occurrence never known before. Every ice-house in town had boon tilled with ice two, three and four inches thick, obtained from the neighborhood. (Southern Commercial Oonvontion. This body is in session at Richmond, Va., only a few States being represented, and a sumll number of delegates attending. The °uly.business of general interest we have yet seen reported in its deliberations, is the adop tion of a resolution declnring the importance of having a line of steamers direct between Liverpool or some other European port and one of our Southern cities. The thin attendance at this Convention is another shameful proof of tho apathy of the South in reference to matters deeply affecting her best interests. Would that half the zeal and interest manifested in tho corrupt squab blcß of national parties could bo enlisted in behalf of the industrial and commercial inter ests of this section of tho Uniou —now embar rassed and preyed upon by speculators through the better organized capital and energy of tho North ! The Difference. As soon as Mr. Toombs had concluded his speech in Boston, some abolitionist in the crowd called out—“ llow long before Charles Hurnner will thus bo permitted to speak South?” —and we observe that tho abolition papers are re-echoing the taunt and enlarging upon it. We answor, whenever the people of Georgia make war upon the social system or domestic institutions of Massachusetts, they will hear Mr. Sumner or any one else whom Massachu setts may Bend here to defend them. Rut we thiuk that Mr. Sumner would have too much regard for the dignity of his State to consent to come here and defend her against abuse and assault before a people who have no right un der Heaven to meddlo with her domestic poli cy ; and wc regret that Mr. Toombs did not take a similar view of tho dignity and pride of Georgia, before going to lloston to defend her institutions against the attacks of those who have no right to question their propriety. How Banks was Elected. When 108 votes were given in favor of the resolution declaring Mr. Aiken Speaker, the National men began to hnvo hopes that they could elect lvim, or some other sound man, under the plurality rule. That rule was adopted the next day, but the result showed that the entire auti-freesoil strength could not be concentrated. Roth Mr. Orr and Mr. Ful ler withdrew their names before the final vote was taken—tho latter declaring that he would not accept the office unless tendered to him by a majority of the House. Banks received 108 votes, 4 freesoilers voting for Campbell. Aiken had 100 votes, receiving, we believe, the sup port of all the Southern members without dis tinction of party; but 6 National Know-Noth ingsfrom Northern States still voted for Fuller. Fuller himself did not vote. When we obtain a classification of the vote, showing the pol itics of each member and the State he repre sents, we will copy it in full. Barnum Seriously Involved! The man of humbugs—but of great energy and usefulness withal —made an unfortunate business alliance with the Jerome Clock Com pany of Connecticut, a few years since. The Company have, since the partnership, had the free use of notes and acceptances in blank, signed by Barnum, and have used them so freely that lie now finds paper out to the amount of $450,000 with his name on it.— The Company, it is said, could not have paid fifty cents on the dollar at any time within the last three years, and is hopelessly insolvent. The New York Tribune thinks it would take $1,000,000 in such property as Barnum owns to raise the amount for which he is involved by a forced sale. It states that he has provi ded for the payment of his own private liabili ties, and will contest at law the claims against him on account of the Clock Company. - - A letter lias been addressed to Congress ou behalf of tlie French inhabitants of Han Juan de Nicaragua, making an humble, but most earnest appeal, for compensation for the losses sustained by them in consequence of the bom bardment of tliut unfortunate city, destroyed in 1854 by a United States vessel of war. It is believed that their statement of losses is greatly exaggerated ; it is extremely doubtful whether Congress cun be brought to entertain the question of remuneration. . Duel. We learn from several dispatches received here, that two gentlemen, Messrs. Bell and Quarles, who left Caliabu sonic ten days ago to settle a personal matter, had a meeting near New < Means on Saturday. They fought with Colt’s revolvers, and both were hit; one in the hip and the other in the shoulder. Neither was considered dangerously hurt. They ex changed five shots.— Ala. Journal. Messrs. Hell and Quarles are the two gentle men of Cahuba who had a difficulty last fall, resulting in the shooting of Quarles by Bell. Wo lately gave an account of Bell’s arrest and examination, when he was bound over to an swer the charge of an assault with intent to kill. The Slave Case at Cincinnati. Wc published a telegraphic account of the escape of a number of slaves from Kentucky, and the arrest of u portion of them in Cin cinnati, a few days “since. We have since re ceived fuller accounts by the Cincinnati papers. The slaves crossed the river on the ice, and were concealed at the house of a free negro named Kite. A party of Kentuckians following the next day, were fired at when they attemp ted to enter the house, but finally, with tlic assistance of the United States Deputy Mar shal, effected an entrance, when they found two men, two women and three children—the others having escaped. One of the children was lying on the floor with its head nearly sev ered from its body, and the other two were badly cut about the neck and shoulders ! It was stated that the mother of the children killed the one and attempted the lives of the others ; but the evidence was not positive, and the free woman of the house was arrested on suspicion of having committed the violence, or being accessory to it. The slaves were scoured by tho United Htates Marshal, but subsequent- ly they were taken from Ins possession, appa rently by process of law, but really in a forci ble manner, by the Sheriff of the county and his posse. The next day tho Marshal regained possession of his prisoners, but the Sheriff was represented to be drumming up assistance to retake them, and a conflict betwoen the Fed eral and State authorities was progressing; but we presume that if violence had been re sorted to, the telegraph would have informed us of it before this time. The Cincinnati Sun thus concludes its notice of this case: “The negroes are all comfortably clad, but are not particularly inteligent. After Mary Kite was looked up, site gave intimations, it is said, that the mother of tlie children committed tho murder, The mother only says it occured “somehow during the scramble” when the crowd rushed in. The other children that were out nre not dangerously hurt. Ten other slaves crossed the river ou Sunday night. Os those, nine were in one crowd. Three of them were the slaves of Gedges & Cos., and six of Mr. Dougherty. They went through safely in the underground. It is reported that six of them were men, two quite young, and the oth ers middle aged, and that all were armed with guns and butcher knives. Archibald K. Gaines, tlie owner of tlie slaves who were captured, is a wealthy farmer, and is the brother of the present Governor of Ore gon. llis neighbors all speak highly of him as an indulgent master, a fact which the com fortable apparel and well fed appearances of the negroes confirm.” Predictions of Emperor Nicholas in 1840. Tho Indianapolis Journal gives the follow ing extract from a loctuve given by Hon. 11. W. Ellsworth, formerly of this city, late Min ister to Sweden, being the language the Emperor Russia used in an interview with the lecturer: “ Sir,” said the Emperor Nicholas, in a memorable diplomatic interview between him and your speaker, during those recent revolu tions that struck down Hungary, remodelled France, and broke the bond of union between Denmark and her revolted Dutchie, causing nearly every monarch to tremble for his throne, “ Sir, 1 view calmly all this agitation, Russia is untouched, and will not mingle with it. Her hour hits not yet come, though her destiny cannot be long delayed! She will soon be in a protracted contest in which Eng land uml France will be her opponents ; these nations, so long and so naturally hostile to each other, will lie arrayed in unison against her!” “ And what, your Majesty, will be the re sult of this contest?” “ Favorable, beyond doubt, to Russia. I shall rise superior to all reverses, and protract the contest till I weary out my enemies. But there is another war looming in the distance —a struggle between constitutional and unre stricted monarchy, in which nearly nil Europe will stand opposed to Russia, while Turkey, her natural enemy, with Persia ami Asia, will be fighting at her side.” “ And how is to result this second conflict?” “ Mill favorable to Russia, though it will be bloody and protracted. But a third and still mightier contest is approaching, in which the world will be involved—a struggle between what is called tyranny, in any form, ami free dom. Into this struggle your nation will be forced from its present policy, and compelled to take a leading part! It will be a struggle suoh ns history never recorded.” Coirej>ondenc* of tin* Savannah Journal. GEORGIA LEGISLATURE. Monday, Fob. 4. Tins Hocsk or Hkpukskntatives. —The bill which was lost ou Saturday, relative to the Brunswick arid Florida and Savannah, Albany and Gulf Railroad was, .after an interesting and lengffiy discussion reconsidered by a vote of 57 to 52. As to the final result of this measure any prediction would now be unreliable. A bill creating anew Circuit to be called the Brunswick Circuit, of counties lying in the Southern portion of the State, which had passed the Senate, was taken up and after some amendments in reference to the time of holding the Courts was passed by a vote of <54 to 34. Reliable information having been received of the death of the lion. A. J. Miller, Senator from Richmond, at his residence in Augusta, both branches of the General Assembly ap pointed committees to attend his funeral, which take.- place on to-morrow, and then ad journed. A feeling of sadness seems to prevail in both branches. 11 is loss is not only a severe blow to the body of which lie was a most valuable member, but also to the State in whose service ns a legislator lie has spent many years of the prime of bis existence. Possessing intellect clear and comprehensive, lie never seemed at fault on any question. Green be his memory in the hearts of a people to whom he devoted the energies of a gifted and cultivated mind. Senate. —Another new county bill, of which you may remember, there have been quite a number proposed—was finally rejected in the Senate to-day. It was to have been formed from Lumpkin and Gilmer counties. It ap peared in the discussion that neither of tlie counties after deducting the poor school fund, which they receive from the taxes they pay into the Treasury, pay half enough to compen sate their present members of the Legislature —so that to add another Senator and another member would be making too large a draft upon the Treasury—so the project failed. Mr. Spalding’s bill for the sale of the W. & A. Railroad, and the creation of an internal improvement fund, was upon his own motion indefinitely postponed to-day, by a vote of 43 to 34. Tlie Honorable Senator who introduced it, stated that lie thought lie had seen enough to convince him that the Legislatur e were not disposed to sell the “State Road,” and lie, therefore, did not wish to press the matter longer before tlieir consideration, to prolong their session. The bill to incorporate a Bank in Macon, to be called The Bank of Middle Georgia was thoroughly discussed to-day, and passed. The village of Greensboro’ in Green county, was incorporated into a city this afternoon— ami a Bank was also granted to her, the char ter containing some of the same restrictions to which such frequent allusion has been made in the correspondence of your paper. The town of Bainbridgo, in Decatur county, had a Bank charter granted her by the Senate this afternoon, to be called “The Southern Bank of Georgia.” They say that these in stitutions are to be of a bona Jide character with no “wildcat” tendencies. If so they may do. The melancholy intelligence of tlie death of the Honorable Andrew J. Miller, late a Sena tor from the county of Richmond, was commu nicated by Mr. Pope, of Wilkes—in the simple announcement of the event, and a motion that a committed be appointed to draft suitable matter touching this sad calamity : whereup on the President appointed Messrs. Pope, Cone, of Greene, Wingfield, Dunnagan and Wales. Judge Cone then offered the following reso lution : That a Committee of three Senators be ap pointed to join a similar number of Members of tlic House of Representatives, to proceed to Augusta, in their official capacity, to attend the funeral of the lion. Andrew J. Miller, late a Senator from the county of Richmond. This resolution having been unanimously agreed President appointed tho Hon. L. of Lowndes, Hon. William il. Mcnftosh, of Elbert, and the Hon. LeGrand Gtierry, of Randolph, astlieSenate committee. On motion of Mr. Knight, the Senate then adjourned. National Men, Theodore Parker, in his lecture on Tuesday night, complained that the North has had but four Presidents, and the South eight, out of twelve elected by the people. When the North can furnish better men than Washington, Jef ferson, Madison, Jackson, and the merits of such men are overlooked for less capable per sons from the South, then there will be reason to complain of sectional differences and pref erences. Tlie patriots named above were cho sen because they represented the spirit of the nation, and had souls large enough to regard the good of the whole country. When such men rise, North or South, the people do honor to themselves in placing authority in tlieir hands, for it will never be abused to advance one section above another, or to dimish that respect for the Constitution, without which a faithful and impartial enforcement of the laws is impossible. When the people begin to select their Presidential candidates because they be long to this or that end of United States, or represent this or that sentional interest, it will be necessary for them to commence calculating the value of tlic Union, for it will not be likely to stand long on a foundation only half the size of the superstruction.— l'hila. Ledger. Acquittal cf Mr. Parsons, The trial of James Parsons, jr., a citizen of Virginia, at Ilollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, charged with (lie several offences of kidnap ping, assault and battery, and breach of the peace, was brought to a close on Thursday evening last by the triumphant discharge of the accused, in which result the Judge, the bar, and a large crowd of attentive spectators testified tlieir concurrence in the most marked manner. Messrs. Faulkner and Tucker, of Virginia, appeared on behalf of Mr. Parsons. It will be recollected that Mr. Parsons, a short time since, attempted to arrest an escaped slave in Pennsylvania, belonging to liis father, but iu the crowd and excitement on the occa sion the slave was either rescued by sympathi sers or himself escaped. Mr. Parsons was not able immediately to show his authority lor arresting the slave, and hence his being d for trial for kidnapping. The other chaises were the result of the attending circumstances. College Row. Philadelphia, Feb. 4th. One hundred students of Dickinson College, at Carlyle, Pennsylvania, arc in a state of re bellion in consequence ot the unjust expulsion of four of tlieir number. Singular Effect of Ico. lhe Hartford Times says, the thick coating ol ico upon the cherry, pear and peach trees has served to protect them from the frost, and at the same time has acted in the capacity of a burning glass, by concentrating and intensify ing the rays from tho sun, until the unseason able warmth thus imparted, has had tho effect of starting tlie flow of sap. and developing the buds. Senator Seward on the Central American Question. Tlie National Intelligencer of Friday, says; In the Senate Mr. Seward delivered bis views at considerable length, in a speech whichcom mandedmarked attention, on Central American affairs. Ho commenced by alluding to the his tory of Great Britain’s “encroachments” in the Isthmus between tlie two American Continents, and gave a sketch of the negotiation whichre sulted in the Clayton-Bulwer Treaty. The points of difference between the Governments of Great Britain and the United States, in the interpretation, were then stated and reviewed. In regard to the Mosquito coast, Mr. Seward maintained that Great Britain was bound by the terms of the treaty to “withdraw” from lier protectorate over that region, and her claims to the exercise of any protectorate at all were argued to he wholly without any foun dation, apart from their renunciation by the treaty of 1850. On this point (lie Senator dwelt at great length. Tlie extension by Great Britain of her possessions on the Belize to lim its south of the Sibnn river, and her colonial occupation of tlie Bay Islands, were pronoun ced to be infraction.-’ of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty. In fine, Mr. Seward declared that all tlie positions assumed by the Government of the United States were right, and ought to be maintained, if needs We, by war. The widespread and disastrous character of a war between two sueli Powers as the United States and Great Britain was portrayed in j graphic colors, it being the opinion of the spea ’ kcr that neither country would enter the con test siliglc handed. The proposition to submit the questions between the two Governments to the arbitration of a friendly power was pro nounced unwise, as furnishing evidence of in decision inconsistent with the prompt assertion of American rights. Mr. Seward therefore proposed to devolve upon England the respon sibility of the war, if, unfortunately, any should arise in consequence of the present difficulty. The variety and extent of our re sources for such a contest were recapitulated by tlie speaker, and the necessity of a railroad to the Pacific coast as a means of defence for the protection of our possessions beyond the ltocky Mountains was briefly enforced. Mr. Seward avowed his conviction that such a war would necessarily result in the loss by Great Britain of all her colonies on this conti nent, and expressed the hope that, by pursu ing a conciliatory policy towards Canada, and by tendering to that country the privilege of entering this Confederacy, we should have lier aid and sympathy in the struggle that might ensue, which he very justly remarked would be “no common war.” TlittColumbia Carolinian oftliestli inst., says: “The road that makes both ends meet at starting will be certain to do well. Tlie Greensboro Patriot says that on” Tuesday last, about 3 o’clock, P. M., the last bar of iron was laid on the North Carolina Rail Road. The meeting of the two ends took place some 4>j miles west of Greensboro. The mail and pas senger cars made their first trip through on Wednesday. The schedule going West is for 15 hours 54 minntes from Goldsboro to Char lotte, and 15 hours 48 minutes from Charlotte to Goldsboro. The time from Raleigh to Charlotte is thirteen hours.” Prunes have been very successfully cultiva ted in Pennsylvania. Among the Economists, in Beaver county, they have been grafted ou plums. Mr. Pfeiffer, of Indiana, raised prune trees in large numbers, and sold them at exorbi tant prices, some as high as $5 and $lO. He had some of the fruit at the Pennsylvania State Agricultural Fair, held at Pittsburg, which sold readily at 50 cents a quart. Gen. Walker, of Nicaragua, lias provided well for all the officers of his army, lie pays the following salaries: Commander-in-Chief, SSOO per month ; Brigadier General, S3OO ; Colonel, $200; Lieutenant Colonel, $175 ; Major, $140; Captain, $100; Lieutenant, $80; Second Lieutenant, S7O; First Sergeant $32.50 ; Second Sergeant, $27.50 ; soldiers in the ranks, $25.

Clerk.— Pending a motion to re-electjGlossbrenner, Ser geant at Arms, an adjourement was carried. In the Senate the action of the Naval Board was discussed. A bill extending the term of Naturalization was introduced. Mr. Dallas confirmed as Minister to Eng land. Arrest. A couple of the light-lingered gentry were captured by the police in the crowd assembled at the sales in front of tlie Court House, yes terday, in the exerciser of their vocation. One was taken in tlie “red hand,” with his digits in the pocket of a bystander. Another, who had been somewhat industrious, escaped. The two arrested, whose names veal or ficti tious we did not learn, were committed to the Guard House for examination. —Montgomery Journal. Sad Disaster in Louisville.—Loss of Life. Louisville, Feb. 1. The east wing of the Louisville Hotel fell in to-day, burying in the ruins a man, a boy, and a girl, and it is feared several others. The little boy was dug out from the ruins alive, but lias since died ; the little girl was found to have her arm broken; the man was but slightly wounded.

New Remedy ! No Poison! Rhodes’ Fever and Ague Cure; Or Antidote to Malaria; FOR THE PREVENTION AND CURE Os Fever and Ague, or Chill Fever; Dumb Ague, and other Intermittent and Remittent Fevers; also of Bilious Fevers, accompanied by Typhoid Symp tom* : Typhoid Fever, Yellow Fever, Ship and Jail Fever, General Debility, Night Sweats, and all other forms of disease WHICH HAVE A COMMON ORIGIN IN MALA-HIJi. OK r | 1 11 E.S E diseases are common tp many localities of the A United States; Jo it wherever they prevail, North South, East or West, they all equally spring from the same miasinal cause. The great variety of symptoms and forms of disease is owing principally to difference in age. sex, constitution and habits of tlie sufferers; hut as tin cause is tlie same, they will all equally yield to a remedy that is competent to overcome or remove that cause. By the laws of Nature, every principle has its opposite, and for every disease, or cause of disease, there is a re agent, or in other words a specific remedy. All Malaria, whether arising from Marshes, Stagnant water, decompo sition of annual and vegetable matter, or even newly cleared lands, is the same in character and effect; is a poi son floating in the atmosphere, causing disease to all who breathe it. In accordance with those unalterable laws governing the unerring affinity suosisting between op posites, there is in the preparation before us, offered to tlie public, The Natural Antidote to Malaria, which neutralizes the poison w henever it comes in con tact with it, even in tlie open air, and when taken inter nally completely purifies the system affected by it of its baneful influence, and thus restores and preserves health. The remedy is believed to be entirely new, and un known to any but tlie proprietor, who distinctly claims the following extraordinary results from its use: it will instantly check the ague in persons who have suffered for any length of time, from one day to twenty years, and by continuing its use, according to the direr lions, a radical cure will lie effected; the patient contin uing free from the complaint for ever; unless subsequent exposure to malaria should make its use again necessary. In its operation upon tlie poison in tho system, it will immediately relieve all the distressing symptoms of bil ious or ague diseases, and when tlie disease is cured, il will entirely prevent the accession of General Debility and NigHt Sweats, which so often follow the administration of other mede cines. Tho patient at once begins to reever appetite and strength, and continues to improve unt'il restored m perfect health. By its use Fever and Ague may he banished from every family and class in the community; farmers, me chanics, and all laboring people maybe “using this arti cle as a Preventive, And pursue their respective avocations in perfect gafeti from ague or bilious attacks during tlie sickly season, which is often to them the most valuable part of the year. Since the introduction of the CURE in every part of tlie United States, its success has been so complete ami unvarying as to have fully proved these assertions in favor of its extraordinary merit. When these declarations were made, at the date of its introduction, they seemed incredible to many, even of tlie most candid minds, because all flic resources of science had been taxed in vain to subdue ague or bilious diseases; and what was still worse for ague sufferers. [ all tlieir remedies or treatment, whether scientific or empirical, have been limited to poisonous or destructive drags, such as Arsenic, Quinine, Mercury, Salieine. Ac. The effects of these are sometimes worse than the disease they subdue, and when such remedies tail, or give only temporary relief, tlieir poisonous effects .ire supomddcil to the poor sufferer’s first complaint. Oil tliis account ague sufferers should be particularly careful about using any secret Fever and Ague remedies, notwithstanding the makers of them uniformly assert they may be taken with perfect safety, even when it is notoriously well known that their potency depends solely upon destructive poisons. Now, as a proof that tlie Remedy is not only valuable on account ot its power to cure diseases, hut that it is also Worthy of Public Confidence, Because of its Singular ami Entire Hannlotsness, The billowing certificate from one of the most celebrated chemists in tlie United States has been obtained, and n copy of it is attached to every bottle : Nbw York, June 11, 1855. “I have made a chemical examination of Rhodes’ Fevoi ami Ague Cure, or Antidote to Malaria, and have tested it tor Arsenic, Mercury, Quinine and Stryphnino. Imt have not tumid a particle ot either in it. nor have 1 found any substance in its composition that would prove inju rious to the constitution. “JAMES It. CIIILTON, M. D„ Chemist. “ It is a stubborn fact, therefore, that this Remedy is destined not only to relieve tlie human family from malarious diseases, but to do an equally good work hi preventing the taking of other medicines which doharni. The entire absence of any baneful ingredient make this Remedy not more valuable as a Cure, than it is as a preventive. No class of disease is so easily managed as tho one under consideration, if the medicine be taken in advance Thin is owing to tho diseases being produced by one un i the iimo cause, and therefore all, botl) residents and travelers, should protect themselves by the timely use of this preventive, and not wait for tlie poison already lurking in tlieir veins, to develop itself in a violent attack. Take tho Cure as a preventive, and so destroy the poison before it docs harm. Full directions and advice as to diet and habits of lib’ prepared by a distinguished Fhysiciun long resident in a Bilious climate now accompany each bottle. It will often lie found necessary to precede this medi cine li.v a mild cathartic or autihilious purgative. Tin very best tiling for general use is a moderate dose ol Castor Oil, the object of which is to cleanse tho stomach and free the biliary passages. Remember that where l hi- is necessary, or there is costivem-ss, it must be taken or the operation of tho antidote will he seriously ob structed. Only Cos lit ion. —ln certain specified cases, pour the contents ol one or more bottles of tlie Cure into shallow vessels, (dining plates,) anil place them in sleeping rooms; for the vapor rising from the medicine, and also the air wafted across, or circulated over the dregs of it. after the liipiid is evaporated, will counteract ami destroy, to a degioe commensurate with its expo sure, tlie miasmata or poison contained in the apartment. This mode of exhibiting the Cure should likewise Ik resorted to when very young infants are exposed to malarious situations. The bottles in winch this medicine is put up have tin words, “hireties’ Fever and Acve Core’’ blown in the glass, and on the outside wrapper is tho name of the medicine, (the copyright of which is secured) and the signature of tlie proprietor. These precautions nrc taken to prevent counterfeits and imitations. The reliance for its success is entirely t;i*on n actual merits, wherever introduced and used. These will bo considered sufficient.
