“ See how a Christian can Die ” —Died, on
the 25ih September, 1543, nt the residence
of Dr. Howell L. Konuon, Greene county,
Alabama, Miss Mary Foster, aged seven
teen years, eight mouths and four days.—
She was known to the writer of this obitu
ary as a young lady nf superior mind—
there was something peculiarly interesting
in the close of her life. She was at the
time of her death on a visit to her aunt,
the wife of Dr. Ivennon, and was while
there happily converted on the 21st of Au
gust, and devoted one short month of her
life to the service of her baviour, when she
closed her earthly existence in the bloom
of youth. She appeared to have a pre
sentiment of her death from the first of her
illness which was five days. She told her
cousin who was with her, that she would
die; and frequently requested her to read
the Bible a.id sing for her which she did.—
Her death was truly a happy and tiiumph
ant one—she begged all who were present
to meet her in Heaven ; and while she was
dying, requested her cousiu to sing a fa
vorite song, “ O sing to me of Heaven.”
Her cousin, much affected, told her she
could not. She then said “ will you not if I
will sing with yon]” and commencing,
sung the following verses with a clear and
distinct voice :
3. When the last moment comes, -■
O watch my dying face ;
And catch the bright seraphic gleam,
Which o’er my features play.
4. Then in my ravished ears,
Ix‘t one sweet song be given ;
Let ntu-ic charm me Inst on earth,
And greet me first in Heaven.
When she had finished, she turned and
said, “ cousin Emily why did you not help
me sing]” Seeing her cousin weeping,
she said, “ O do not weep for me, and pre
pare to meet mein Heaven ; you have com
menced seeking the Lord, Odo not turn
back, but seek on until you have obtained
the pardon and forgiveness of your sins.
O my dear cousin, I will puty for you when
I get to Heaven.” She offered up the most
fervent and pathetic prayer for her brother
and sister, who are irreligious, and begged
those around iter to tell them to prepare to
meet hot in Heaven. She also prayed fer
vently for her widowed mother, that site
might he sustained in this sad bereavement.
She said to her cousin, “ I want yon to go
and see mother when 1 am dead, and tell her
lam gone to Heaven.” She said she wish
ed the Rev. Mr. Mtirrah, P. Eldei, to preach
Iter funeral; observing at the same time,
that it was under bis preaching that site first
felt that site was a sinner, and that lie was
the first one who taught her to seek Iter Sa
viour. She then took an affectionate leave
of her friends, embracing each of them, and
begged them all to meet Iter in Heaven.—
She told her cousin to give her love to each
of her school mates when she met with
them, and tell them site was gone to Heav
en, and they must prepare to meet her
there. A few moments before site ceased
breathing, she said, “ I shall soon be where
the wicked cease to trouble, and the weary
are at rest.” Looking up she exclaimed,
“Oh ! yonder is my father and my blessed
Jesus, don't you see them, don't you see
them ] They have come to welcome me to
glory.” Her last words were addressed to
her cousin. “O, cousin Emily, I want you
to go with me to Heaven”—and closing her
eyes on all earthly things, she breathed her
life out sweetly on the bosom of her Sa
viour.

DR SPENCER’S VEGETABLE PILLS.
A PUBLIC BLESSING!
‘THESE Pills have long been known and appreciated
A for their extraordinary nnd immediate pow ers 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 comelaint, ns there is no medicine before
the public which has so natural and happy effect upon
the system in correcting the stomach ami liver, and to
the formation of healthy chyle, and thereby purifying
the blood.
They are acknowledged by the hundreds and thou
sands w ho are using them, to be not only the most mild
and pleasant in their operation, but 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 be without them, and
call again and again for more; which is sufficient proof
of their good qualities.
HEADACHE—SIC K OR NERVOUS.
Tlny-e who have suffered nnd are weary of suffers
ing with this distressing complaint, will find Spencer’-
Vegetable Pills a remedy at once certain nnd imme
diate in its effects 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 it Summer and Rowf.l Complaints,
| they display their wonderful powers to admiration, and
j are far superior to any thing in use for these com
plaints.
In Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint, they stand un
rivaled. Many have been cured in a few weeks, after
having suffered under the dreadful complaint for years.
In Habitual Costiveness they are decidedly superi
or to any Vegetable Pill ever brought before the public;
and one 25 cent box willestahlish their surprising vir
tues, and place them beyond the reach of dcubt in the
estimation of every individual.
Thev are invulnerable in nervous and hypochondri
acal affections, loss of appetite, nnd all complaints to
which females alone are subject-
They are mild in their action, and convey almost
immediate conviction of their utility from the first dose.
They may he taken by persons of any age ; and the
feeble, the infirm, Ihe nervous nnd delicate are strength
ened by their operation, because they clear the system
of had humors, quiet nervous irritability, and invariably
produce sound health
of three hundred and seventy Thousand
boxes of these inestimable Pills have been sold within
the Inst twelve months in three States nlone. nnd more
than three times the same quantity in other States.
As an nnti-hil!ious medicine, no family should be
without them. A single trial of them is more satisfac
tory than a thousand certificates.
OS'"The above medicine is for sale, in Madison, by
C F. HOFFMAN ; in Athens, at the Drug Shop of
Dr Ware; in Wa'kinsville, by Wm. Murray; in
Crawfordville, by D. S Andefson, and, on enquiry,
may he found in all the villages throughout the State.

IMPROVEMENT in wha.evcr regards the h ap[)l I
A ness nnd welfare of our race is constantly o n P q,'l
inarch to perfection, and with earh succeeding J,!|
some new problem ts solved, or some profound ILr’l
revealed, having an important and direct bearing me I
mans highest destinies. If we take a retrosooctiv.l
vtew over the past twenty years, how is the mind straekl
with wonder! What rapid strides has science ma. 1.1
in every department of civilized life! particularly il
that which relates to the knowledge of the human m l
tem in health and disease. How valuable and indisJ
PensaWe are the curative means recently discover,il
through the agency of Chemistry ! How does the im I
agination kindle and our admiration glow at theinJ
nuity, the near appronrh to the standard of perfectii®
of the present time! Through the elaborate investia.®
lions of Physiology, or the science of Life, nnd the P,®
thologv of prevalent diseases, much valuable practical
knowledge has heen gamed. In consequence of hr®
coming acquainted with the organization, the element®
| of the various tissues and structures of the system rem®
edies have been sought after and discovered exactly®
j adapted to combine with, neutralize and expel morbifi®
matter, the cause of disease, nnd substitute healthy ac®
tion in its place. The beautiful simplicity of this mod®
of treatment is not only suggested hv the pathology ofl
diseases, not only grateful lo the sufferer, but perfect!®
;n consonance with the operations of Nature, and sat®
isfaclorv to the views and reasonings of every intelli®
gent, reflecting mind. It is thus that SANDS’ SAP®
SA PA RILLA, a scientific combination of essentia®
principles of the most valuable Vegetable substance®
operates upon the system. The Sarsaparilla is con®
hived with the most effectual nids, the most salutnrfl
productions, the potent simples of the Vegetal)®
kingdom; and its unprecedented success in theresio®
ration to health those who had long pined under dfl
most distressing chronic maladies, has given it an er®
ailed character, furnishing as il does evidence of its ow®
intrinsic value, and recommending it lo the nfllicted i®
terms the afflicted only can know. It has long hen®
a most important desideratum in the practice of med®
cine to obtain a remedy similar to this—one that won®
act on the liver, stomach and bowels with all the prtl
cision and potency of mineral preparations, vet witH
out any of their deleterious effects upon the vital pottH
ers of the system. 1 1*

peetfullv called lo the following certificates. Hon,®
er great achievements have heretofore been made I®

Newark, (N. J.) December 15,1842.1
Messrs. Funds—Gentlemen: Words cannot exprffl
the gratitude I fi-el lor your treatment to me, a sir,a®
ger suffering under one of the must loathsome disens®
that natnre is capable of hearing. The disease i®
which I was afflicted commenced with inflamman®
of the eves, in the year 183 b, w hirl) caused almost l®
tal blindness. For this I w astrented and finally relieTt®
hut the remedies were stml) as to cause the dcvcli®
mrni of a scrolulous affection on my left arm near t®
elbow. 1
The pain extended from the shoulder Ur the end fl
my fingers, and for two years my sufferings were isl
yond description, I tried various remedies nnd roustfl
ed different Physicians in New York, nml amor®
them the late Dr. Bushe, who told me the disease a®
caused by the large quantity of mercury taken to rifl
the inflammation ol my eyes. fl
My sufferings continued, the nrm enlarged, lamonH
firmed in different places, nml in a few months d®
charged,making ten running nlcers at one time.scn®
above and some below the elbow-, and the disdiar®
was so offensive that no person could bear to he in iH
room where 1 was I then applied to another dis-H
guished Physician, who told me amputation of the tv®
was the onlv thing that could save my life, n9 i- il
impossible to cure so dreadful a disease ; but as Isl
unwilling to consent to it he rerommended me to
Swnim’s Panacea freely, which 1 did without deriv:®
but little benefit ®
For three years I was unable to raise my band to til
hand or comb my hair, and the scrofula now made!
appearanre on my head, destroying the bone in ditlJ
ent places, causing extensive ulcerations nnd I fetirl
it might renclt and destroy the brain—the head swell!
very much, accompanied with violent pain, numeral
external remedies were recommended, hut they did I
good. Abort a year since I was taken severely ill “I
a swelling of the body front head lo foot, so that I wl
entirely helpless ; the Doctor advised me lo go to I
Hospital, for he did not understand my case; fortl
hist lew months 1 had been afflicted with a severe pafl
in both sides, at times so hard I could scarcely gel J
breath A hacking cough constantly annoyed me.nl
this combined with my other maladies, rendered ■
truly miserable. 1
Such, gentlemen, had been my situation for sow
years of my life when I commenced the use of y®
Sarsaparilla, but as my case was considered hope®
and the near prospect of a speedy dissolution seeniß
inevitable, 1 felt but little encouragement to perseveß
The persuasion o r friends induced me totryyonr mi
icine, which in a few days produced a gieat change*
my system generally, by causing an appetite, relievfl
the pains, and giving me strength ; as success insp®
confidence, 1 was encouraged to persevere, my pail
grew easier, my strength returned, food relished, I
ulcers healed, new flesh formed, nnd I once morel
within mo that I might pet well. I have now used I
Harsapnrilla about two months and am now like a®
ferent being. The arm that was to be amrut*®
has entirely healed, a thing that seemed impossible.®
can scarcely believe the evidence of mv own eyes,®
such is the fact; nnd it is now ns useful ns at any fl
riod of my life, nnd my general health is better ilia®
has been for years past. I
Health ; what magic in the word ! how many th®
sands have sought it in foreign lands nnd sunny elm®
and have sought in vain ! Yet it came to me win®
had given up to die, and as I feel the pulsations of he®
coursing through my veins, my whole heart and ®
go forth in fervent gratitude to the author of all our®
mercies, that lie has been graciously pleased to l®
the means made use of. H
Truly have you proved yourself the Good Samar®
to the afflicted, for next to my Creator my life is ind®
ed to yon (or rather) the use of your invaluable Snrs®
rilla. The value of such a medicine is countless®
yond price: money cannot pay for it. I have I®
raised from death, I may sav, for my friends and m®
thought it impossible that 1 could recover. And n®
gentlemen, suffer me to add another proof certified®
V my friends nnd guardians as a just acknowledge®
of the virtues of your health restoring Sarsaparill®
That the nfllicted may also use it and enjoy the b<®
firs it alone enn confer, is the heartfelt, fervent wis®
