’ An Irish We scarcely know
when we have laughed more merrily than .
over the following humorous episode in the
•• Loiterings of Arthur O’ Learyby “Har
ry Lorrcqucr” A knowing rogue tells his
own He had a hor. It had a trick
of sinking upon its knees at the first touch
ofthe spur. He told a large party of sport
ing folks (in Irelsnd of course) that he had
a pony which sat at game like any pointer.
He was laughed at, and large bets taken a
gainst bis success itv making the point. Send
ding out a cunning fellow called Tim. to
warn him of the right place, he rode to the
sporting scene with all the anxious betters
around him.
“ Before we had proceeded a half a mile,
I saw Tim seated on a stile, scraching his
head in a very knowing manner; upon
which, I rode out from the party, and look
ing intently at the froze covet in front, cal
led out—
“ Keep off the dogs there—call them off
bush, not a wont”
The hounds were called in, the party
reined back their horses, and all sat silent
spectators to nty movements.
When suddenly l touched Paul in both
flanks, down be dropped like a parish clerk,
stiff and motionless as a statue.
•* What’s thai ? cried two or three behind.
“ He's setting,” said I in a whisper.
“ What is it, though V’ said one.
“ A hare!” said I at the same time I
shouted to lay on the dogs, and lipping
Paul’s ears, forward l went. Out bolted
puss, and away we started across the coun
try, I leading and taking all before me.—
We killed her in half an hour, and found
ourselves not far from the first cover, my
friend Tim, being as before in advance,
making the same signal as at first. The
same performance was now repeated.—
Paul went through his part to perfection ;
and notwithstanding the losses, a general
cheer saluted us, as we sprung to our legs,
cr.d dashed after the dogs.
Os course, I didn’t spare him; every
thing now depended on my sustaining our
united name and there was nothing too high
or too wide for me that morning.
“ What will you take for him, Mr. O’Kel
ly 1” ‘was the question of each man, as he
came up to the last field.
•• Would you like any further proof!”
said I. “Is any gentlemen dissatisfied 1”
A general “No” tvu3 the answer, and a
gain offers were received from every quar
ter, while they produced tbcirbank notes and
settled their bets. It was no part of my
game, however, to sell him; the trick might
he discovered before I left the country, and
if so, there would’nt he a whole bone re
maining in my skin.
My refusal evidently heightened both my
value snd bis, and I sincerely believe that
no story I could tell, on our ride back to
town, would not have met credence that
morning ; and indeed to do myself justice,
I tried my popularity to its utmost.
By way of a short cut back, as the fair was
to begin at noon, wc took a different route,
which led across some grassy fields, and a
small river. In travel sing this, 1 unfortu
nately was in the middle of some miracu
lous anecdote, and entirely forgot my pony
and all his acquirements ;■ nod as he stop
ped to drink, wiiliout thinking of what I
was doing, with the common instinct of a
rider, I touched him with the spur. Scarce
ly had the rowel touched his side, when
down he fell sending roe head foremost over
his neck into the water. Fora second or
rwo the strength of the current carried me
along,, and was only after a devilof a scram
ble I gained my legs, and reached the bank
wet through and heartily ashamed of myself.
Eh,O’Kelly what the deuce, was fhatl”
cried one of the patty, as a toar of laughter
broke from amongst them.
“Ah!” said I mournfully, “I was not
quick enough.”
** Quick enough !’* cried they. “ Egad
I never saw any thing like it. Why, man,
you were shot off like an arrow.”
Leaped off if you please,” said I with an
air of offended dignity—“leaped off—did’nt
you sec it V’
•• Sec what!”
“The salmon, to he sure. A twelve
Sttradb*. as sure a ray name's O’Kelly.—
e set it.”
“ Set a salmon ■!” shouted twenty voices
in a breath.
“ The thing’s impossible.”
” Would you like to bet on it 1” said I
drily.
“No, no—no more bets ; but surely—”
“ Too provoking, after all,” muttered I,
” to have lost so fine a fish, and get such a
ducking !” and with that I mounted my
barb, and waveing my hand wishing them
a good by, galloped itito Killaloe.”
The ■ndersigned respectfully au
nounces to hi* fellow-citizens of MHrgrni County that

DR. SPENCER’S VEGETABLE PILLS.
A PUBLIC BLESSING!
rpHF.SE Pills hnve long been known nnd appreciated
*- f>r theirextraordinary nnd immediate powers of re
storing perfect health to persons, suffering under nearly
every kind of disease to which the human frame is lia
ble.
They arc particularly recommended to all those per
sons who are afflicted with any kind of a chronic or
lingering complaint, as there is no medicine before
the public which lias so natural and hnppv effect upon
the system in correcting the stomach and liver, and to
the formation of healthy chyle, and thereby purifying
the Wood.
They nre acknowledged by the hundreds and thou
sands who nre using them, lobe not only the most mild
and pleasant in their operation, hut the most perfectly
innocent, safe and efficient medicine ever offered to
the public. Those who once make a trial of these Pills,
never afterward feel willing to he without them, and
call again nnd again for more; which is sufficient proof
of their good qualities.
HEADACHE-SICK OR NERVOUS.
Those who have suffered ond are w-rnrv of stiffets
ing with this distressing complaint,-will find SfEXCER’-
Vegetable Pills a remedy ntonce certain and imine,-
diate in hs effeois One single dose of the Pills taken
soon ns the headache is felt coming on, will cure it in
one half hour entirely.
Asa remedy ir- Summer and Bowel Complaints,
they display their w onderful powers to admiration, and
are far superior to any thing in use for these tom
plaints.
In Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint, they stand un
rivaled. Mnny have hern cured in a few weeks, after
having suffered under the dreadful complaint for years.
In Habitual Costiveness iliey are decidedly superi
or to any Vegetable Pill ever brought before the public;
end one 25 cent box willesialilish their surprising vir
tues, nnd plare them bevond the reach of dtubt in the
estimation of every individual.
Thev are invulnerable in nervous and hypochondri
neat affections, loss of appetite, and all complaints to
which females alone are subject.
They are mild in their nciion, and oonvpy almost
immediate conviction of their utility from the first dose.
They may be taken by persons of any age ; and the
feeble, the infirm, the nprvousnnd delicate nre strength
ened bv their operation, because they clear the system
of bad humors, quiet nervous irritability, and invariably
product Sound health.
Upwards of three nuNDRrn and seventy thousand
boxes of these inestimable Pills have been sold within
the last twelve months in three States alone, and more
than three times rite same quantity in other States.
As nn anti-biliious medicine, no family should be
without them. A single trialof them is more sotisfac
tory than a thousand certificates.
fcrThe above Medicine is ior sole, in Madison, by
C. F. HOFFMAN ; in Athens, at the Drug Shop of
Dr-Ware; in Wa'klnsville, by Wm. Murray; in
Cravvfordville, by D. S Andetson, and, on enquiry,
may be found in all the villages throughout the State.

ever offered to the public, nnd is really what it purports
lobe, a certain, speedy and permanent cure for all ca
ses whatever of ague nnd fever or chills ond fever.
Such has lieen its very great succes? in all those dis
tricts of country where it hns been used, thnt it has
supplanted almost every other remedy; and bv its uni
form certainty in curing this very disagreeable nnd
sometimes distressing ntsense, has gained the entire
confidence of the public and approbation of the medi
cal faculty.—lndeed mnny of the most prominent and
distinguished practitioners, in various parisof the South
ern and Western country, have such confidence in its
superior efficacy, that they give if a decided preference
over all other remedies, and uniformly prescribe it in
their practice for this disease. The superiority which is
claimed for this medicine over nil others, is, that, inde
pendent of its being a speedy nnd certain cure, it ia the
most perfectly innocent remedy known.
Infants, females, and persons of the most delicate
constitutions, ntoy take it withouMhe least fenr of any
unpleasant effect, and will find their general health and

SANDS’ SAftSAPARILLaT
For the removal and permanent cure of alt
Diseases arising from an impure state of
the Blood, or habit of the system, namely;
Scrofula, or King's Evil, Rheumatism, Ob
stinate Cutaneous Eruptions, Pimples, or
Pustules on the Fare, Blotches, Biles, Chro
nic Sore Eyes, Ring Worm or Tetter, Scald

Symptoms, Sciatia,or Lumbago, and Dis
eases arising from an injudicious use of
Mercury, Ascites, or Dropsy, Exposure or
Imprudence in Life. Also, Chronic Con

this Preparation.
IMPROVEMENT in whatever regards the happK
1 ness and welfnre of our race is constantly on the
march to perfection, and with each succeeding dav
some new problem is solved, or some profound secreY
revealed, having an important and direct hearing over
mail’s highest destinies. If we take a retrospective
view over the past twenty years, how is the mind struck
with wonder ! What rapid Rtridea has science made
in every department of civilized life! particularly iw
that Which relates to the knowledge of the human eye-’
tern in health and disease- How valuable mid indie-’
pensnble are the curative means recently
through the agency of Chemistry t How docs the im
agination kindle and our admiration glow at tfid jhge'-’
nuity, the near approach to the standard of perfection
of the present time ! Through the elaliorate investiga
tions of Physiology, or the science of Life, nnd the Pa-;
Ihology of prevalent diseases, much valuable practical l
knowledge has been gained. In consequence of be
coming acquainted with the organization,the elements
of the various tissues and structures of the system, rem
edies have been sought after and discovered exactly
adapted to combine wi;h, neutralize and expel morbiffe
matter, the cause of disease, nnd substitute healthy ac
tion in its place. The beautiful simplicity of this mode
of treatment is not only suggested by the pathology of
disenses, not only era'eful to the sufferer, Nut perfectly
in consonance with the operations of Nature, and sat
isfaciory to the views nnd reasonings of every intelli
gent, reflecting mind, ltis thus that SANDS’ SAR
SAPARILLA, n scientific combination of essential
principles of the most valuable Vegetal,le substances,
operates upon the system. The Sarsaparilla is com
bined with the most effectual aids the most safotnry
nroduc'ions, the most potent simples of the Vegetable
kingdom; and its unprecedented success in the resto
ration to health those who had long pined under the
most distressing chronic maladies, has given it an ex
alted character, furnishing as it rioestvidence of its own
intrinsic value, and recommending it to the afflicted it*
terms the afflicted only can know. It bns leng Reen
a most important desideratum in the practice of medi
cine to obtain a remedy similar to this—one that would
act on the liver, stomach and bowels with all the pre
cision and potency of mineral preparations, yet with
out any of their deleterious effects upon the vital pow*
1 ers of the system.
(t? ** The attention of the reader is res
pectfully called to the following certificates. Howev
er great achievements have heretofore been made hr
the use of this invaluable medicine, yet daily experi
ence shows results still more remarkable. The pro
prietors here avail themselves of the opportunity of say
ing it is a source ol constant sstiefaction that they ars
made the means of relieving tuch on amount of suffer
ing.
Newark, (N. 3 ) December 15,1812.
Mfssrt. Sands—Gentlemen : Words cannot express
the gratitude I feel for your treatment to me, a stran
ger suffering under one of the most loathsome diseases
’hat nature i capable of bearing. The disease with
which I wns afflicted commenced with inflammation
of the eves, in the venr 1836, which caused almost to
tal blindness. For this I was treated and finally relieved|
but the remedies were such ns to cause the develop
ment of a scrofulous affection on my left arm near the
elbow.
The pain extended from the shoulder to the end of
my fingers, and for two years my sufferings were be
yond description, I tried various remedies and consult
ed different Physicians in New York, and amongst
them the late Dr. Bushe- who told me the disease was
caused by the large quantity of mercury taken to cure
the inflammation ol my eyes.
My suffering* continued, the arm enlarged, tumours
formed in different places, and in a few months di
charged, making ten running ulcers at one time.som*
above and some below the elbow, and the discharge
was so offensive that no person rould bear to he in the
room where I was I then applied to another distin
guished Physician, who told me amputation of the arm
was the only thing that could save nty life, as i’ was
impossible to cure so dreadful a disrase : but as I was
unwilling to consent to it he recommended me to us*
Swaim’s Panacea freely, which I did without deriving
but little benefit
For three yeara I wns unable to raise my hand to my
head or comb my hair, and the scrofula now made ita
appearance on my head, destroying the bone in differ
ent places, causing extensive nlerratinns nnd I feared
it might reach and destroy the brain—the head swelled
very ninth, accompanied with violent pain, numerous
external remedies were recommended, bill they did no
good. About a year since I wns taken ‘everelv ill with
a swelling of the body from head to foo*, so that 1 wns
entirely helpless ; the Doctor advised me to go ro the
Hospital, for he did not understand mv ease ; for tiie
| ist few months 1 had been afflicted with a severe pain
in both sides, at times so hard I could scarcely get my
breath A hacking cough constantly annoyed me, and
this combined with my other maladies, rendered me
truly miserable.
Such, gentlemen, had been my situation for seven
years of my life when I commenced the use of your
Sarsaparilla, but as my ease was considered hopeless,
and the near prospect of a speedy dissolution seemed
inevitable, 1 felt but little encouragement to persevere.
The persuasion of friends induced me to try your med
icine, which in a few days produced a great change in
my system generally, by causing an appetite,relieving
the pains, and giving me strength; as success inspires,
confidence, 1 was encouraged to persevere, my pains
grew easier, my strength returned, food relished, (ha
uler rs healed, new flesh formed, and I once more felt
within me that I might get well. 1 have now used the
ffersapnnlla abort two months and am now like a dif
ferent being. The arm that was to be amfbtateo.
has entirely healed, a thing that seemed impossible. I
can scarcely believe the evidence ol mv own eyes,, bu t
such is the fact; nnd it is now ns useful eg at any pe
riod of my life, nnd my general health is better thnn it
has been lor vrars past.
Health j what magic in tlie word ! how many thou
sands have sought it in foreign lands nnd sunny climes,
and have sought in vain ! Yet it came to me when 1
had given up to die, and as I fffei the pulsation* of health
coursing through y,,y veins, my whole heart and soul
go forth iu fervent gratitude to the author of all oursure
mercies, that he has been graciously pleased to bless
the means made use of.
Truly have you proved yoursflf the Good Samaritan
to the afflicted, for next to my Creator my life is indebt
ed to you (or rather) the use of) our invaluable Sarsapa>-
rilla. The value of such a medicine is countless be
yond price; money cannot pay for it. I have been
raised from death, I may sav, for my friends and myself
thought it impossible that I could recover. And now,
gentlemen, suffer me to add another proof certified too
bv my friends nnd guardians os ■ just acknowledgment
of the virtues of your health restoring Sarsaparilla.—
That the afflicted may also use it and enjoy the bene
fits it alone can confer, is the heartfelt, fervent wish of
their and your friend, MARTHA CON LIN.
I know Martha Conltn and believe what she states
in this document to be perfectly true.
