(COMMUNICATED.) ,
Our City Legislation.
Mr. Editor-. The recent publication of certain ’
■actions of the “General Ordinance,” relating to
-ide-walks, awnings, signs, Ac., has not only sur- (
•rised some of us, but may also subject many of our I
citizens to inconvenience, more or less annoying. *
While Tdo not approve of all the details of the sev- (
enty-third section, as published, the object of this <
communication is to direct attention more especial
ly to the provisions of the eighth section. (
In the tirst place, it does not appear whether the !
poration of this section is to he merely prospective, ,
,rotherwise. It commences with these words: s
"All posts and rails fixed in any street, shall he *
iiind-turned posts, Ac.” Are we to understand j
that all the “ posts and rails” now standing, which (
do not conform to the prescribed rules, shall he i
removed? Or does the enactment apply only to <
such as may be hereafter put up? In either con- *
fraction of the section, although it may be well |
ruoagh to regulate the position and height of awn- 1
:;ig posts and rails, it seems rather arbitrary to
impel a citizen to have the posts “ turned,” if he !
fippea to prefer having them made four, six or *
right sided. (
“ S'o porton or part of any cloth or canvass used i
as an awning, shall hang loosely down from the
same over the side-walk or footpath.” ]
“No sign or article of merchandise shall he sits- j
i ieJ from any huihliny or over any of the side- i
sulks in the city.” I
If these provisions are enforced, our great, com- ;
mercial street, the admiration of strangers, will bo '
stripped of those insignia of mercantile activity
and enterprising competition which alone can give
a business appearance to the place and attract the
trader. Deprive us of the privilege of multiplying '
sir signs and of hanging out our merchandise, and '!
d road street will lose one of its chief attractions .
I s a place of business. Why should our merchants '
he now compelled to pull down all their projecting
i overhanging signs, and to take in all the goods
I 'hey have been in tbehabit of banging before their
tores ? What injury has ever yet resulted front
this good old custom ? The fact is, that the greater
he outer display of mercantile activity, the better
will the street look and the greater will be the
trade.
A-. me deeply interested in the prosperity of the
tty, I earnestly hope that our merchants may not
he subjected to any petty vexations of this kind,
i -‘A that His Honor, the Mayor, will rather submit
- matter to a reconsideration by the City Coun-
C!i . ’“ atl attempt, without doing so, to enforce an
■rdinaace evidently enacted without mature delib
rratl<m - Hroadstueet.

"hr is there so much fear and apprehension
tur the result in Utah? There will he civil war,

secure the true welfare of the misled masses ;
e'en Aach collision is better than the existing
:::m of all substantial prosperity, and reign of
-Elusion and wickedness. Daily are Utah affairs
involved in worse condition, and in similar ratio ,
the President and his Cabinet more determined
act—but not rashly. The position of Governor
t Utah is not an undesirable one to the brave
■ I honorable man. The administration wish to
ticure the services of a superior person, combining
t vil qualifications, with a touch of martial and
hd tactics; and he who shall accept this respon
• ble post, and successfully carry out the wishes
■f the Administration in establishing “law and
dor,” will acquire a name and position which
■ i rank very favorably with our best statesmen,
-decidedly the most trying, and hence, the
most desirable opening, for t lie-right kind of a
-an, to attain popularity and character, that this
Government ufibrds at this time ; and there are
‘.any men in the South who are eminently quail
'd to discharge its duties.

■*•l on pretty good authority, that Tennessee may

! her gallant sons. Another than McCulloch, in
is spoken of, and between the two, at pre
-tnt, seems to be the choice. A good selection is
”‘ c chief aim, so that the wants of the country
-ay be fully satisfied.
The doctrine of “gross proceeds” for remuuera
”‘S the contractors of our ocean mail service, is
becoming very popular. We do not doubt but
tbat when the present arrangement with Collins'
.me expnes, it will be glad to fall into this propo
sition rather than lose the service. Other lines of

Koporter’s Notes ol Points Decided by
the Supreme Court in the Dred Scott
Case.
I—l. Upon a writ of error to a Circuit Court of
the United States, the transcript of the record of
all the proceedings in the case is brought before
this Court, and is open to its inspection and revi
' 2! When a plea to the jurisdiction, in abatement,
is overruled by the court upon demurrer, and the
defendant pleads in bar, and upon these pleas the
- final judgment of the court is in his favor—if the
plaintiff brings a writ of error, the judgment of j
tbe court upon the plea in abatement is before this j
court, although it was in favor of the plaintiff— j
arid if the court erred in overruling it, thejudg- ;
meat must be reversed, and a mandate issued to 1
' the Circuit Court to dismiss the case for want of !
jurisdiction.
3. In the Circuit Court of the United States the |
record must show that the case is one in which, j
by the Constitution and laws of the United States, j
the court had jurisdiction—and if this does not ap- j
pear, and the court gives judgment either for plain- j
tiff or defendant, it is error, and the judgment
must be reversed by this court —and the parties |
cannot by consent waive the objection to the juris- 1
diction of the Circuit Court.
4. A free negro of the African ruce, whose an- 1
ccstors were brought to this country and sold as
slaves, is not a “citizen” within the meaning of !
the Constitution of the United States.
5. When the Constitution was adopted, they I
were not regarded in any of the States as mem- |
bers of the community which constituted the State,
and were not numbered among its “people or citi
zens.” Consequently, the special rights and im
munities guarantied to citizens do not apply to
them. And not being “citizens” within the mean
ing of the Constitution, they are not entitled to
sue in that character in a court of the United
States, and the Circuit Court has not jurisdiction
in such a suit.
Cj. The only two clauses in the Constitution
which point to this race, treat them as persons
whom it was morally lawful to deal in as articles of
property and to hold as slaves.
7. Since the adoption of the Constitution of the
United States, no State can by any subsequent law
make a foreigner or any other description of per
sons citizens of the United States, nor entitle them
to the lights and privileges secured to the citizens
by that instrument.
8. A State, by jits laws passed since the adoption
of the Constitution, may put a foreigner or any
other description of persons upon a footing with
its own citizens, as to all the rights and privileges
enjoyed by them within its dominion and by its
laws. But that will not make him a citizen of the
United States, not entitle him to sue in its courts,
nor to any of the privileges and immunities of a
citizen in another State.
The change in public opinion and feeling in
relation to the African race, which has taken place
since the adoption of lhe Constitution, cannot
change its construction and meauing, and it must
be construed and administered now' according to
its true meaning and intention when it was formed
and adopted.
10. The plaintiff having admitted, by bis demur
er to the plea in abatement, that his ancestors were
imported from Africa and sold as slaves, he is not
a citizen of the State of Missouri according to the
Constitution of |the United! States, and was not
entitled to sue in that character in the Circuit
Court.
11. This being the case, the judgment of the
court below, in favor of the plaintiff'on the plea in
abatement, was erroneous.
II -1. But if the plea in abatement is not brought
up by this writ of error, the objection to the citizen- j
ship of the plaintiff is still apparent on the record,
as he himself, in making out his case, states that
he is of African descent, was born a slave, and
claims that he and his family became entitled to ;
freedom by being taken, by their owner, to reside ;
in a territory where slavery is prohibited by act of
Congress—and that, in addition to his claim, he
himself became emitted to freedom by being taken
to Rock Island, in the State of Illinois—and being
free when he was brought back to Missouri, he was
by the laws of that State a citizen.
2. If, therefore, the facts he states do not give
him or his family a right to freedom, the plaintiff
is still a slave, and not entitled to sue as a “citi- I
zen,” and the judgment of the Circuit Court was
erroneous on that ground also, without any refer- '
etice to the plea in abatement.
3. The Circuit Court can give no judgment for
plaintiff or defendant in a case where it has not
jurisdiction, no matter whether there be a plea in
abatement or not. And unless it appears upon the
face of the record, when brought here b\ writ of
error, that the Circuit Court had jurisdiction, the
judgment must be reversed.
The case of Capron not. Van Noorden 2 Crunch,
120) examined, and the principles thereby decided,
re-affirmed.
4. When the record, as brought here by a writ
of error, does not show that the Circuit Court had
jurisdiction, this court has jurisdiction to revise
and correct the error, like any other error in the
court below. It does not ami cannot dismiss the
case for want of jurisdiction here ; for that would
leave the erroneous judgment of the court below
in full force, and the party injured without reme
dy. But it must reverse the judgment, and, as iu
anv other case of reversal, send a mandate to the
Circuit Court to conform its judgment to the opin
ion of this court.
5. The difference of the jurisdiction in this
court iu the cases of writs of error to State Courts
and to Circuit Courts of the United States, pointed
out; and the mistakes made as to the jurisdiction
of this Court in the latter ease, by confounding it
with its limited jurisdiction in the former.
11. If the court reverses a judgment upon the
ground that it appears by a particular part of the
record that the Circuit Court had not jurisdiction,
it does not take away the jurisdiction of this court
to examine into and correct, by a reversal ot the
judgment, any other errors, either as to the juris
diction or any other matter, where it appears front
other parts of the record that the Circuit Court
had fallen into error. On the contrary, it is the
daily and familiar practice of this court to reverse !
on several grounds, where more than one error ap- I
pears to have been committed. And the error ot
a Circuit Court in its jurisdiction stands on the j
same ground, and it is to be treated in the same
manner as any other error upon which its judg
ment is founded.
7. The decision, therefore, that the judgment of
the Circuit Court upon the plea in abatement is
erroneous, is no reason why the alleged error ap
parent in the exception should not also be exam
ined, and the judgment reversed on that ground
also, if it discloses a want of jurisdiction 111 the
Circuit Court.
8. It is often the duty of this court, after having
decided that a particular decision cf the Circuit
Court was erroneous, to examine into other al
leged errors, and to correct them il they are found
to”exist. And this has been uniformly done by
this court, when the questions are in any degree
connected with the controversy, and the silence of
the court might create doubts which would lead
to further and useless litigation.
Hl.—l. The facts upon which the plaintiff’relies,
did not give hint his freedom, and make him a cit
izen of Missouri.
2. The clause in the Constitution authorising
Congress to make all needful rules and regulations |
for the government of the territory and other pro
perty of the United States, applies only to territory
within the chartered limits of some one of the
States when they were colonies of Great Britain,
and which were surrendered by the British Gov
ernment to the old Confederation of the States, in
the treaty of peace. It does not apply to territory
acquired by the present Federal Government, by
treaty or by conquest, from a foreign nation.
The case of the American and Ocean Insurance
Companies ayt. Canter, t 1 Peters, 511, > referred to
and examined, showing that the decision in this
case is not iu conflict with that opinion, and that
the Court did not, in the case referred to, decide
upon the construction of the clause of the Consti
tution above mentioned, because the case before
them did not make it necessary to decide the ques
tion.
3. The United States, under the present Consti
tution, cannot acquire territory to be held as a col
ony, to be governed at its will and pleasure. But
it may acquire territory, which, at the time, has
not a population that fits it to become a State, and
may govern it as a territory until it lias a popula
tion which, in the judgment of Congress, entitles
it to be admitted as a State of the Union.
4. During the time it remains a territory, Con- ■
gress may legislate over it within the scope of its ]
constitutional powers in relation to citizens of the
United States—and may establish a territorial gov
. ernment —and the form of this local government
must be regulated by the discretion of Congress
—but with powers not exceeding those which Cou
gress itself, by the Constitution, is authorized to
exercise over citizens of the United States, iu re
spect to their rights of persons or rights ot pro
perty.
IV—I. The territory thus acquired, is acquired
i by the people of the United States for their com
j mon and equal benefit, through their agent and
' trustee, the Federal Government. Congress can
1 exercise no power over the rights of persons or
j property of a citizen in the territory which is pro
j hibited bv the Constitution. The government and
' the citizen, whenever the territory is open to set
j tlemeut, both enter it with their respective rights
defined and limited by the Constitution.
•2. Congress have no right to prohibit the citi
-1 zen> of any particular State or States from taking
up their home there, while it permits citizens of
other States to do so. Nor has it a right to give
privileges to one class of citizens which it refuses
j to anotner. The territory is acquired for their
i ‘ equal and common benefit —and if open to any, it
1 must be open to all upon equal and the same
, 1 terms.
1 3. Every citizen has a right to take with him
• into the territory any article of property which the
f Constitution of the United States recognizes as
t j property.
‘ 4 The Constitution of the United States recog
! nises slaves as property, and pledges the Federal
’ Government to protect it. And Congress cannot
exercise any more authority over property of that
; description than it may constitutionally exercise
I over property of any other kind.
5. The act of Congress, therefore, prohibiting a
; citizen of the United States from taking with him
Ins slaves when he removes to the territory in
question to reside, is an exercise of authority over
i private property which is not warranted by the
Constitution—and the removal of the plaintiff, by
his owner, to that territory, gave him no title to
I freedom.
I Y—l. The plaintiff himself acquired no title to
freedom by being taken, by his owner, to Rock Is
land, in Illinois, and brought back to Missouri,
j This court has heretofore decided that the status or
I condition of a person of African descent depended
1 on the laws of the State in which he resided.
2. Tt has been settled by the decisions of the
! highest court in Missouri, that, by the laws of that
’ State, a slave does not become entitled to his free-
I dom where the owner takes him to reside in a State
I where slavery is not permitted, and afterwards
1 brings him back to Missouri.
CONCLUSION.
J It follows that it is apparent upon the records
I Dmt the court below erred in its judgment on the
! plea in abatement, and also erred in giving judg
ment for the defendant, when the exception shows
that the plaintiff was not a citizen of the United
States. And as the Circuit Court had no jurisdic
tion either in the case stated in the plea in abate
ment or in the one stated in the exception, its judg
ment in favor of the defendant is erroneous, and
must be reversed.

Rats become an Article ol Commerce.
As civilization advances human iugenuity is
severely taxed to supply man’s natural and artifi
cial wants. Our grandfathers would have said that
the destructive vermin which infests our cellars
under the name of rats, would be the last thing
which could ever be turned to a useful purpose.
Even the tine lady of the present day, who piques
herself on her exquisitely fitting gloves, would
give one of those little shrieks, which she thinks
so sweetly feminine, if told that the thumb of her
glove was made of ratskin, as more elastic yet
tougher than kid. The nineteeth century, in fact,
sees rats elevated to an article of commerce. In
Europe the fur of the rat is used "by hatters,
having been found to exceed in delieay even that
of the beaver. A company exists in Paris, on the
principle of the Hudson’s Bay Company, to buy
up all the rats of France. In London many per
sons earn a livelihood by hunting rats in the sew
ers. A late number of the London Quarterly Re
view makes these facts the text of a curious and in
teresting article on the habits of the rat, an ani
mal heretofore considered unfit to be introduced
into decent society, but which, under the auspicies
of the Quarterly, makes quite a respectable figure.
Nearly every portion of the habitable globe is
infested with these vermin. Hardly a vessel sails
without carrying with it a colony, and thus even
the islands of the Pacific are supplied with rats.
On board of ship they generally keep out of sight,
provided they cun command that great necessity,
water; but if this is guarded against their depre
dations they will come on deck, on rainy nights,
to drink, and will even ascend the rigging for the
sake of the moisture lying in the folds of the sails.
When very thirsty they have been known to at
tack the spirit-casks, and get, like wiser beings,
tipsy, though, we believe, they never beat their
wives even when drunk. Sometimes two distinct
colonies are to be found in the same ship : one oc
cupying the stem, and the other the stern. It is
no uncommon thing to destroy five, hundred in a
single East Indiaman 011 her arrival at Calcutta.
Often, when water has been scarce on the voyage,
they voluntarily desert the vessel the night after
her casting anchor, generally passing to land, in
single file, along the mooring-rope, though, if this
is impracticable, they do not hesitate to swim.
The genuine ship-rat is a more delicate animal
than the large brown rat, and approximates to the
original English rat, which is not yet entirely ex
tinct, though some naturalists have asserted the
contrary.
Few persons have an idea of the vast numbers
of these vermin. The Quarterly says, “rats are to
the earth what swallows are to the air, universally
present.” But, unlike their feathered rivals, we
rarely see them, and hence are ignorant of the
countless millions that burrow under our cellars,
run up and down between our walls, haunt the
sewers of great cities, and devastate the granaries
of farmers. But it is about slaughter-houses that
they “ most do congregate.” At Montfaueon, in
France, the proprietor of a slaughter-house had a
walled enclosure, where, one night, he threw the
carcases of two or three horses, and then went qui
etly with his workmen and stopped up all the holes
by which the rats had entered it, after which he
went in with these same workmen, each armed
with a stick. The rats thus entrapped, were slain
by hundreds. 111 a single month he killed six
teen thousaud and fifty, and two thousand six hun
dred and fifty in one night. It has been estimated
that the progeny of a single pair of rats would
amount, in three years, to six hundred and fifty-six
thousand, if they could all find food and escape
the accidents that makes the mortality among
them so great. Between the large brown rat and
the smaller species there exists a mortal antipathy.
It an equal number of each breed are put into a
cage over night, the bigger ones, if not hungry,
will eat off' the long, delicate ears of the smaller,
which they seem to consider a great luxury; but
if half starved, nothing will be seen in the morn
ing, of the smaller species, except the tails and
bones.
The rat, according to the Quarterly, has never
received the credit for sagacity which he deserves,
although the jihrase “ as cunning as a rat,” testi
fies to the popular opinion of his abilities. It is
not a fable (hat a rat robs a hen’s nest by lying on
his back and holding the eggs between his paws,
while his companions pull him along. Rats have
been seen, one on each side, leading blind or aged
rats to water. A gentleman once noticed that sev
eral rats ate at, the trough with his dogs ; so, one
day, he kept the dogs back, after the trough was
filled, intending to shoot the rats when they came
to eat; but the latter were too wise to make their
appearance till he let the dogs in, when he was
afraid to shoot, and this caution they exhibited day
after day, till lie gave up in despair. Sometimes,
when famished, a rat will attack poultry. Rats fre
quently gnaw through the leaden pipes of houses,
for the sound of running water seems to fascinate
them, and many a rat, curious to get at the cause
of this strange noise, lias suddenly found himself
deluged in a shower-bath. The teeth of a rat are
so formed, and grow so fast, that if he does not
gnaw almost incessantly, and by thisprocess wear
them away at the point, they become enormous
circular tusks. Rats have been killed which, hav
ing lost a lower tooth, have had the corresponding
upper one grown into a complete circle, the point
of which, in winding around, had passed through
the hip of the animal. The Quarterly insists that
the rat is really a beautiful animal, especially xvben
seen sitting on bis haunches and licking his paws;
but we confess that our prejudices prevent our dis
cerning his beauty ; and we are orthodox enough
still to think that'rats should only be named with
traps and guns, to which, if in our power, we would
consign the whole breed.

report of a committee of the Robertson Associa
tion :
i To R. IC. Me Qamck, President of the Robertson
j Association :
Dear Sir : In compliance with your revest, we
submit the following report:
la company with the city marshal we visited
every house in the city where small pox was sus
pected, and we found only four cases, viz :
Bth Ward—Rebecca Perry, confluent, very bad.
Patsy, negro slave, convalescent. James Rourke"
i deck passenger from a steamboat, at Pest House,’
i recovering. Mary Morris, negro child at Pest
i House, a mild case.
From the general precautions which have been
laken to prevent the extension of the disease, we
feel confident that no fears need be entertained of
its spread. T. A. Atchison.
Jos. C. Newnan.
Washington, May 21. —It is estimated that the
troops now moving in the direction of Utah com
prise about two hundred men. There are two va
cant federal judgships in the territory which are
soon to be filled, and probably another marshal
will be appointed as preliminary to enforcing the
civil process. In the event of opposition on the
part of the Mormons to this, the military will be
employed to enforce tbe laws and to protect citi
zens of the United States from Mormon oppression.
It is supposed, however, that no necessity for ex
treme measures will arise. The Governorship is
still unsettled, although several gentlemen are so
licitous for the position. But the government is
anxious to select one who will combine personal
bravery with administrative talent and a question
ed discretion. The programme of operations for
Utah will be consummated with the least possible
delay.
Thomas Cuuningham, of Pennsylvania, has re
signed his associate judgship in Kansas.
Boston, May 22.—The House, by a large majori
ty, refused to concur in the Senate’s amendment on
the Kansas resolution, making an appropriation
contingent upon the Supreme Court.

Foreign Market*
LI VERI’(>()L, May 3.—Our last circular advices were dated
1-2 instant, at. which time our cotton market presented a heavy
aspect, and prices were irregular. The opening transactions of
the present week were not characterized by any change, and,
despite the adverse accounts r.-eeived by the Niagara, holders
still offered freely, without enlarging the daily business, under
the inlluenee oTa backward spring, which affects trade pros
pects, combined with dear money. A promised favorable
change in the weather, and a more encouraging aspect to finan
cial matters, took place on Wednesday, and in anticipation of
largo specie arrivals, and some diminution in the export of the
predot . metals, a healthier tone was imparted, and speculators
entered upon operations, which swelled the sales that day to
12,000 bales. Yesterday's business exceeded these figures, the
demand being animated, and parcels to arrive were again in re
quisition, though the buoyancy was temporarily checked by
the announcement that the Bank had declined to make advan
ces on Consols, doubtless with tile view of suppressing specu
lation in the public funds, and benefiting commerce; but &o
sensitive are all classes just now that any derangement in the
ordinary course of monetary affairs is immediately felt, and
produces an effect. The trade have slightly extended their
purchases, and although many samples are withdrawn, and
Cotton is not so freely pressed, there is no lack of supply. In
prices the downward tendency is not only arrested, but a re
covery of
be noted. Easterly winds prevailing have kept out arrivals,
and the import is restricted. A large fleet is, however, due
with the first change; but from present appearances it would
seem probable that our maximum stock for the year would be
attained in all next month. The “(binadlan’s” accounts are to
hand this morning, confirming previous advices of frost and re
planting in the cotton regions. Our market closes to-day with
less excitement, (estimated sales 10,000 bales, 3,000 to specula
tors and exporters,) but very firmly at the advanced quotations.
The total sales of the week amount to 60,150 bales, of which
42,950 are American. Speculators have taken 7,620, and ex
porters 6,700, leaving 46,430 bales of all kinds to trade. The
import for same time is 9,039 bales, of which 7,342 are Ameri
can. The quantity known to beat sea from American ports is
about 237,000 bales. Brices to-day: New Orleans fair, S-Ld.;
middling 7 13-16*!.; ordinary, skd.(^7Yd. Mobile fair, Bd.;

market is strengthening confidence in the manufacturing dis
tricts, and a better feeling is apparent, the reduction in hours of
labor and production imparting more steadiness to goods, in
which there is some increase of business. Yarns also are in
improved demand and prices have a hardening tendency.

DEGRATH’S ELECTRIC OIL.
rjIHE man with the Sugar-Loaf Hat has been here for the
A past two or three days, astonishing the natives with the
wonderful effects produced by De Grath’s Electric Oil. Prof.
De Grath has introduced a novel mode of advertising. He
makes his advent in town by ringing a tremendous gong, which
attracts the attention of the crowd, to whom he makes know n
the wonderful virtues of his Electric Oil, and begs them to
send all who are suffering with rheumatism, pains of all kinds,
and deafness, to the town Hail, where he has lectured morn
ings and evenings for several days, and produced some aston
ishing cures. A Mr. Sugg and Seth Taylor, who have been
long afflicted with chronic rheumatism, and had to be assisted
on the stage, were enabled to run a race across the Hail, and up
and down stairs, to the amusement of the audience. A num
ber of cases of deafness, of many years standing, were relieved
in five or ten minutes, so that they could hear the ticking of a
waul) and evinced their gratitude bv embracing the Professor,
and showering upon him their endless blessings. Some in
stances were truly affecting.
•Prof. Be Grath has been called to see a number of obstinate
cases in our most respectable families, and has succeeded in
affording great relief : and a number have given him certificates
which will be published soon. He makes no charge, but di
reets all who want the De Grath’s Electric Oil, to Feseud and
Gatling, who have purchased a large quantity on .such terms as
will enable them to supply the country merchants at hi- price
This valuable preparation is selling rapidly.
A number ot valuable presents have been made to the Pro
fessor by those who have been relieved.

I, David Likin, do hereby certify that I have been badly afflict
ed, for about two months, with Inflammatory rheumatism, one
of my legs being very much swollen, stiff and sore, so that I
found it exceedingly difficult to walk—that the stiff joint has
been twice rubbed with Prof. De Grath’s celebrated Electric
Oil within thirty hours, and I now have the perfect use of the
afflicted limb. I was also troubled with partial deafness in my
left ear, and by a single application of the Electric Oil, my
hearing has been greatly improved. DAVID ELKIN

, Dr.. Cavanaugh's Pile Salve
VY ill never full In giving immediate relief and positively citrine
the worst and most obstinate cases of Hemorrhoids or Piles!
It is the only invaluable remedy known here or elsewhere for
the Piles, and Is the result of years of patient study and inves
tigution.
Sufferers from Piles now have a remedy at hand which will
stand the test of trial, without a fear of failure on its part, to do
all the proprietor claims for it.
Full directions accompany each box ; and all that is requisite
is strictly to observe them, and a cure is certain to follow.
The proprietor refers to the following testimonials trom gen
tlemen of character and standing, who have voluntarily given
their certificates in its favor, in regard to its efficacy in their
own cases. Read them.
The following is from one of the most reliable citizens of
Chicago, the late Treasurerof Cook county, 111.:
Chicago, July 251855.
Dr. Cavanaugh—Dear Sir: I wish hereby to make known to
the afflicted that I have been troubled with the Piles for twen
ty years or upwards, and at times most severely. And during
a recent and exceedingly painful attack, a friend procured a
box of your Salve and asked me to give it a trial. 1 did so.
Not, however, witn the expectation of benefltting my disease,
for truly 1 had tried so many applications I iiad lost confidence
in all. But in making use of your Salve, 1 soon found that
it was doing me good; and realty it is incredible to myself, that
With only about two week's use of your Salve, 1 am, so fur ass
can judge, a well man.
I most, cheerfully make this statement, believing it due both
to yourself and such as may be afflicted with this most trying
and painful disease. 1 do not hesitate to say that I consider
vour preparation an invaluable remedy for the Piles. Most
sincerely yours, __ 11. N. IIEALD.

ciency of your Pile Salve. 1 was, for several weeks, sorely af
flicted with that painful and loathsome disease, the Piles.
After having exhausted my patience in trying various prescrip
tions of physicians and others without receiving anv benefit, by
the strong recommendation of your Salve, by my friend, the
Hon. Richard Yates, 1 was induced to try’ if.’ lam happy in
saying an application of your Salve, for three days, perfected
