A Word to Young Lalies. —We believe
that a young lady, by.her constant, consis
tent Christian example, may exert an tin
told power. You do not know the respect,
the almost worship, which young men, no
matte r how wicked they may he them
selves, pay to a consistent Christian lady,
be she young or old, A gentleman once
said to a lady, who boarded in the same
house with him, that her life was a eonsis
tant proof of the Christian religion. Often
the simple request of a young lady will
keep a young man from doing wrong. We
have known this to be the case very fre
quently ; and young men have been kept
from breaking the Sabbath, from drinking,
from chewing, just because a lady whom
they respected, and for whom they had an
affection requested it.

FFEEDOM from fever and ague.
TRIUMPHANT SUCCESS!
THE
GRENADA ELIXIR,
OR
South American Antidote for Malarial
Is a sure Cure and Perfect Route to Ague
and Fever, Chill and Fiver, Dumb Asue,
and all Bilious Affections !
IT has been thoroughly tested in thousands of
cases, some of years’ standing, where Quinine
and ail the most popular remedies of the day had
failed, but the Eiixir has met with the most tri
umphant success ; never failed to cure the most
obstinate cases. The unanimous testimony of all
who have used or witnessed its operalions, declare
it to be Ihe most e>traordinary medicine ever dis
covered for ihe quick and permanent cure of Fe
ver and Ague. It operates as a gentle Tonic and
stimulant, gradually but surely; eradicates every
vestige of disease, and restores the system to health
and vigor. It imparls new vitality to the blood,
and w ill soon induce the glow of health to return
to the pale and swarthy complexion.
The advantage of this medicine therefore is, that
a cure must be radical and complete ; not simply
breaking the Chill, by producing a “new impres
sion” upon the nervous system, without reference
to the operations of the malarious poison, which
is allowed to remain unchanged and renew its at
tacks, immediately after the nervous system has
ceased to lee! ihe artificial disease—induced by
Quinine and many other preparations generally
resorted to. The GRENADA ELIXIR acts di
rectly upon the Liver, Stomach, Kidneys, Pores
of the Skin, and produces a radical cure.
It contains no ingredient the least injurious to
the system, and can he given to an infant with
perfect safety. It is warranted to cure every case
when taken as directed.
All who need such a medicine, will do well to
try the Grenada Elixir. It is not only the best hut
the must economical medicine ever introduced for
Fever and Ague and is a Southern Remedy.

Nervous, Rheumatic and Neuralgic Affections, it
has in numerous instances proved highly beneficial,
and in otuers effac ed a decided cure.
This is a purely vegetaole compound,prepared on
strictly scientific principles, after the manner of the
celebrated Holland Professor, Boerhave, Because
of its great success in most of the European States,
its introduction into the United States wa3 intended
more especially for those of our fatherland scattered
here and there ver the face of’this mighty country.
Meeting with great success among them, I now of*
feritto the American public, knowing that its truly
wonderful m diciual virtues must be acknowledged.
It Is particularly recommended to those persons
whosi constitutions may have been impaired by the
continuous use of ardent spirits, or other forms ol
dissipation. Generally instantaneous in < fleet, it
finds its way directly to ihoseatot lifi-, thrilling and
quickening every nerve, raising up the dr. oping
spirit, and, in fact, intusing new health and vigor in
the system.
NOTICE, —Whoever expects to find this a beve
rage will be disappointed ; but to the sick, weak,
and low spirited, it will prove a grateful aromatic
cordial, pos-essed of sun/ula- r* medial properties.
