MARRIED, At EufiulS, on the 3d inrt., by Rev. John E. Dawson, Capt. Robert R. Howard, of this city, to Misw Mary Louisa. daughter of Thos. Flournoy, Esq., of the former place. I) IF.D, At his re-idenee, in Russel’ Coitntv. (Ala.,) on the 2nd of December, Dr. JACOB A. LEWIS, in the 32nd roar of his age. Life is uncertain and death is very certain. When the lamp of file burns brightest, and our ties to earth are strongest, then the grim mon- Death, delights to enfold us in his embrace and dissolve one connection with everything earthly. The deceased has left an amiable wife and five small child ren to mourn the loss of a husband and father. In the prime of life he was torn from them by that Being who gave him his existence, and it behooves us not to mur mur at his decrees, hut rather we should prepare our selves cheerfully u> respond to the call which shall sum mons us to that “ bourne from which no traveller eer returns.” Death come-, death come*, and his icy hand Is felt by the strong and the weak ; The lovely babe, and the vigorous man, Falf powerless at his feet. Death come- - , death comas, with mighty power Ho crushes the rich and the poor ; ’Tis he that requires hut one short hour To level the high and the low. Death eome=,death conies ; with desperate hold He seizes the freeman and slave— s Unmindful of riches, ur.bribed by gold, He hurries them to the grave. ,T. M. P.

Oet. 15th, 1350. 43 Dr. Willcox’s Sarsaparilla, T'S decidedly the best Medicinal Extract for the cure of all diseases arising from an impure state of the blood, and other fluids, that has ever been brought before the public. The following are a few of the com plaint’ in which the power of this extraordinary Com pound has been displayed, viz: Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Fever Sores, Pile*, Scald Head, Pimples on the Face and Body, Liver Com plaint, Rheumatism, Consumption, Erysipelas, \ Cancers, Ulcers, and all Mercurial Diseases. It is also a certain cure tor Indigestion or Dyspepsia and General Debility, and is especially valuable for Female Com pi a inis. The origin of all diseases, it will undoubtedly be ad mitted, arises from impurities of the blood and fluids generally, or the action of morbid causes upon both flu ids and solids—-and whatever remedy will restore the physical functions to a healthy state, and carry off the corrupt matter which impregnates the blood and other fluids, must necessarily be of great interest to mankind. Many of the medicines now in use are wanting in their sanitary effects, in consequence of the absence of some essential article, or an injudicious combination of the ingredients used. Against this medicine no such charge exists. While it does all that other Extracts of Sarsaparilla are said to perform,it accomplishes what they leave’ undone; Penetrating and Purifying the Blood is only a part of its office ; The Secretions of the Fluids Generally are Pro moled by it, and the internal muscular action relieved from that slugl - which frequently lays the foundation of that distressing complaint .generally known under the name of Indigestion . Its effect on the solids is such as to give to each part of the muscular system that wholSsome relaxation by which the blood is enabled to extend its circulation free lv, leaving the extremities as well supplied with life as those parts least exposed to exterior changes. The disfigured appearance of many of the human fam ily by Tumors, Abscesses, Swellings, Glandular and Cu~ j tancous affections, may 1 e attracted to the inactivity of the organs whore these affections occur. As the fungus makes its appear ance in decaying vegetable matter, so do Tumors pre sent themselves on the human frame whenever the ani mation of its parts is partially suspended. This medi cine, then, by its singular and peculiar action on the solids, is eminently calculated to afford relief when, without it, the scalpel would hasten the patent to a pre mature grave. This Compound Extrac t of Sarsaparilla, In Chronic Constipation, Quietly insinuates itself"through, and purifies the fluids, relaxes the solids, and without draining the sufferer of his energies, restores a healthy and permanent vital ac ; tion. In Rheumatic Complaints, Its virtues are incomparable. The nervous system, which, in these derangements, is deprived of its equili \ brium, yields its negative action, assumes the positive, and supplies the blood with’that assistance in its arterial ! transit which, in endeavoring to make, before caused : pain and inflammation. THERE IS SCARCELY A CHRONIC AILMENT which may notbe greatly j relieved, and in most cases,entirely cured, by a judicious and well-timed use of this remedy. Nervous Diseases and Fe 711 ale Cos m plaints , The most gratifying results have been effected. In | such cases, if taken as set forth in the directions, this j remedy will be found in reality an IN VTGORATOR I AND, AS IT WERE, A LIFE-RESTORER, j To go through with the whole list of human ills is not : the design of this circular. The principle of the medi j cinal effect in cases for which this Sarsaparilla is acer , tain cure, isali that is intended to be shown, and all that [ is necessary to be known, to ensure its universal use. i For sale only by Robert Carter.
