DULY ('Ii\STITITIOMLIST PUBLISHED BY .J AMES GARDNER, HENUY CLEVELAND—Editor. AUGUSTA, OA. SUNDAY MOENING, DEC. 30, 1860- STATE CONVENTION. The election for delegates to the State conten tion will take place on Wednesday, Jan. 2d, and the Convention will meet on Wednesday, the 15th of January, 1351. The following gentlemen are the nominees of the Richmond county meeting, to represent the three late parties of this county in the State convention. secession TICKKT Hon. GEOROE ‘V. CRAWFORD, Mr. JOHN PHINIZY, Sen., Dr. I. P. GARVIN. NEW YEAR'S NIGHT- THE CONCERT We trust our benevolent and music-loving citi zens will remember the Concert announced by the Choral Society, to transpire next Tuesday evening, atCouce-t Hall. Apaft from the admitted musicaj ability of the generous volunteers, the object ot the entertainment is most praiseworthy ; and surely it requires no labored attempt at rhetoric to induce this community to respond liberally to the appeal which will be made, in dulcet strains, in behalf of the indigent, but Sabbath-School-loving little ones of “Canaan.” Bear in mind, reader, the sententious sermon of Dus Swikt. On a certain occasion, this was bis text: “He that giveth to -he poor leudeth to the Lord;” and this was his sermon : Ifyou like the security, down with the dust. THE DANCING PARTY. On Friday night Professors Bioos and Gans gave one of their charming entertainments at the Masonic Hall. In consequence of the general business depres sion, the school is not so large as usual, and we missed several of the gracetul girls, who made the ball beautiful last winter—Alice, Carrie and Lon, among them. Anew Danish dance was peculiarly charming, from and lightness of the movement.-, and the intense enjoyment of it, by the children. But the most interesting item, was the fancy dances bv little Miss Whyte, and .Miss Isabel Robison, the latter appeared twice, and both were graceful and beautiful. Whatever opiuiou may be held of dancing, it must be right for children, since it makes them happy; and those who mingle with them will catch the sunshine of iheir gladness, even as the orb of night borrows the brightness of the day. DISUNION. This is the last titae we can address our readers of the Weekly Constitutive,alUt, before they are called upon to decide that .ssue which involves freedom or servitude to us had our children, and which issue should alone be written—“ Victory or Death ” Oh, that when young men ask the daughters of the land for song, they wtnld sing the Marseillaise hymn; and that the old end the waiting would learu wisdom of the girls aid young children ; for the blue cockade of secessioncontrasts with many dark or golden tresses, and the lonely, golden star of Georgia shines bright amid be robes of little boys and girls, just old enough tojisp es—Mother, God, and Liberty. From the great popular heart, however, the anxious question is, “ Watchman what of the night?” and while we cannot “Day is breaking, and all is well,” yet RevotHjou twines her crimson wings with the snowy Humes of peace, and both look on, as the great vAJ of the future slowly lifts upon the second ac 0 f the drama of the West. The stage is yet dim, and the characters sha dowy; but the scenes are those of Southern. . pire, and the figure plainest seen is Hope. But dramatic rhetoric does not satisfy the qu.?_ tioning heart, and the varied question is, “Wh i of Georgia ?” The answer is, she trill secede tie fur I the 4th of March, 1861. There is no majority in Georgia for secession ; but every county meeting, save two or three, has resolved as the sense of its members, and the faith of its nominees for delegates, that disunion is either a necessity now, or will be on the refusal of new guarantees, and even the most conserva tive will reluctantly vote for immediate secession, because the Abolitionists are not base enough to ask them to delay. Commercial relations will force Georgia out, for she cannot afford to have a siring of custom houses on her Alabama, Florida, South Carolina, and perhaps Tennessee frontiers; and kindred aud fraternity forbid that we should remain aliens and strangers amid those glorious sisters, which have begun to embroider Independence, upon the robes of tbeir empire. We are told that in all our contests with the North, until this last disastrous one, the South has uniformly been victorious; victors in 1820, victors (it was said) in 1850, victors (in truth) in 1552, victors in 1854, and in 1856, besides innumer able great or less contests scattered over the bo som of the past forty years. Let us grant it all, grant ihe victories aud forget how many such victories would be worse thau defeat; but before we thank God for such success, let the solemn question be answered, why were we assailed? Was it the purpose of the “ more perfect Union,” which our fathers sealed in blood, that we should be an eternal target, warding off with fear and trembling, the shafts of a relentless foe, that foe our brothers? Were we ever the aggressors, and have they not always been? It is true that we hare escaped annihilation in a series of conflicts, from each and all of which, the Constitution have been our shield ; but each one of these fratricidal blows would bare been fatal had it succeeded. Like convicts on the wheel, we have contented ourselves with avoiding the “mercy stroke” which was intended to finish us, and put up each time the piteous petition—oh, say you wont do it agaiu ! The war is against us and defeat is ruin; this day we are defeated, and we must seek the embattled heights of southern in dependence, o; be captives in the next battle on the plains of the Union. It is truly said that the South has never yet been disgraced and ruined. That is true; but with fair notice that the Abolitionists intend to do it, aud have just received the power to do it, shall we wait till they do it? Does it become us to stay and court dishonor? Perhaps the most absurd, and yet universal ar gument against us, is the Psalm to the Stars and Stripes. Strange that “sensible” men can find no evidence of the value of the Union, save a flag, a few graves and some facts of past history! Stran ger still when we remember that there is no copy right on the flag to prevent our having one like it; that the graves, worthy to be, “The Delphic vales, the pilgrim shrikes, the Mecca* of the mind,” are on southern soil, and that it ts a task for our schoolchildren now to remember those historic memories of glory, which are all our own. We are referred to the growth of this country, as evidence of the value of onr Government ; but emigrants came when there was no Government at all, and its rapid spread is hardly commensurate with the triumphs of Saxcn blood, under the cross of St. George, against old empires, Thugs, Asiatic cholera, and the spotted, striped, creepiag, and miasmatic dea;b in Dengal. We are told that the Federal Government has done no wrong. Granted; but it is as well to recollect that it has never been more than the paid agent of the States, powerless for harm ; and as our old servant has taken -errice under Abolition ism, we simply discharge him, with a good char acter and a recommendation to the new master. Those avoid the issue who say we quarrel with the Government. We do cot; but our partner States have sinned, and they, or we, shall quit the firm. It is said, by our ablest opponents, that we Lave only two causes of complaint, to-wit: The Terri torial question, and the fugitive slave law. That is not true, for it is probable we will abandon the Territories, and are able to let a million or two a year be stolen from us in slaves. It is the northern heart wLich we complain of, and no marriage bond can be 6acred enough to make us cling to a termagant that don’t love us. It is said to be the extreme of folly to resist sviis before they come, but we are accorded per mission to get ready to resist. Exactly ! And our idea is to form a Southern Union, get armies, navies, treaties, etc. etc., so when an attempt is made to abolish slavery, we will be ready to re sist. The Georgia platform is pled. That never was right, for it held the Federal Government ac countable, instead of the States, and ignored State rights. It is said the North threatens but dares - notact. Well, it is certainly the first time that a big crowd was afraid to attack a little one, and if it is all bluster, let us go South out of the cold and let them bluster by themselves. “They lack the power!” Ah, indeed! and who found that rut? They will, by the secession of cotton States, have every department of the government by March, ; and with all the power that is, they are probably satisfied. “Lincoln tied !” so is the devil, but bis ! chain is long enough to let him walk over bell, earth, and heaven, {tide Job). ZZZZ!! P “The South will have the whole military power I of the Government to aid her,” in defence of her | Constitutional rights, says a great man ; and of ! that “whole military power,” Abe Lincoln is Com j raander-in-Chief! ‘Pray don’t precipitate things,’ cries one and another, and where was ever recorded more calm deliberation, than is seen in the call of the South ; Carolina and Georgia Slate conventions ? But there are disunionists, perse! Yes, and all honor to the men who braved the howl of “treas on,” by being the first to say ‘so. Traitors let them be called, but such was Washington. The last hope is exhausted, and Toombs did vio lence to his own feelings, that he might demnn i strate the hopelessness of Constitutional amend ’ ments, by the votes of Republican Senators. Aboil j tionism will not even listen to that old sage of the : Union, Crittenden, and it tells us as plain as it ! can talk—“there is no compromise.” The following is a statement of the entire vote I cast in the United States, after separating and dis | tnbuting the fusion ticket: POPULAR VOTE. i Lincoln, 1,785,480 : Douglas, 1,354,428 j Breckinridge 784,806 1 Bell, 605,801 The Douglas vote being almost double that of Breckinridge, and the popular vote against Lin coln, nearly a million. The causes which led to the election of Lincoln have been most minutely enquired into, to show that it is not an Abolition triumph. Breckinridge men in the North voted for him, from dislike to the great opponent of the Admin istration. Douglas men voted for Lincoln, because they feared Breckinridge would get in the House Bell men, because they hated Democracy. For eigners and others, because of the fusion with Americans. Pennsylvanians, on the tariff on iron, aud other manufacturers for other tariff mterests. New Englanders, for the homestead measure, and ten thousand lesser causes were at work. Yet all these things but demonstrate two great truths; first, that a Government which cannot prevent such accidents, is worthless; second, that whoever may have been the first choice of our northern brothers, the second choice was generally an Abo litionist. We are told that interest will compel the North to do right, but have before demonstrated that it is religious zeal which impels them against inter est; aud thefoctof the committee of thirteen in the idenate, of thirty-three in the'House, refusing alLcompromise even now while their constituents are out of work and bread, proves tbe desperate tenacity of fanaticism. But we cannot expect these legislators now elect, to do right, in State or Congress, but wait for the ballot box to speak ! It has just spoken. Let us be unanimous ! Certainly, and who keeps us from it ? We will not be able to control fanaticism—it is said—even if we separate from it. That may be so; but we can make the incendiary get a passport, and the peddler and drummer pay duty at the spites of the land. We can open our ports to the world, and not longer feed the beast which wants to eat us. We can risk our lives upon the chances of glorious battle, and if slaves we must be, we at least, can avoid the mockery of being called their brothers. Some say the border States are frightened; if they are, let them sell their negroes cheap and turn Abolitionists. But we will lose their sympathy if we do not consult them ! We intend to consult, as soon as we get free enought to do it without perjury. Was the Confederacy formed before or after tbe war of the revolution began ? The brightest idea however is. thai slavery cannot extend South, for the Indiana, Ci-eoles, Spaniards, et sic de similibui, would be in ihe way •s lords, proprietors of the soil, opposed to slavery, M therefore we are stopped that way. It is con ned that slavery must expand; or to use the eles S al wish of the northern Senator, “the viper will itself to death.” It was never expected to expan North; deserts, free States and oceans, bar it Wes aß( j East ; W e are now informed that it can t g'South, therefore it seems to us that the premises ro uo { t rue( or W e ure in a bad predica ment, ana the continued Union does not aid it a particle. It is the oi argument which was laughed at in the cases of F rida, Louisiana, New Mexico, Calls fornia, and M s „„ rl) for the dominant race will supplant all oth ttn( j s i aV ery will expand South to Brazil, and fr. a till stopped by snow. I inay be an evil, bni;| (e cholera, no power can check it but frost. The British presi n f orms us—and unkindly it is repeated by the y o rgia born—that England lets us alone uow only oni f ear 0 f our National greatness, but will no It g er respect the Monroe doctrine after we divide. ft uc h is the argument to scare us from iudependi ce i Take heed, oh men of the ou ,h,how you shrink from your destiny; for, when , e children of Israel, terrified by the report of V. Bpjes ,| lat there were “giants in the land,” sLr back from the ! fords of Jordan and the lulls f Canaan thev were led back, and for forty y rg strewed tbe desert with their graves. Josh, atlc i Caleb alone said, “we are able to take an( j they alone of all that myriad host lived to over—the one to dwell in the fertile vales of Lij rou ,j leu his own ; the other, to die with his peoj e ar ound him, amid the hills of God. Let those, however, who would shrink oni gj. a nts, remember, before us we have but th, world ’ of aliens to appose ; behind us, the work st ju I stands in arms, and our own Government is c, e s conspirator. Tbe alternative is not peace at | but other nations, or other nations and our o\* We cannot get Cuba if we go out of the Union P erliapg not, but ave have an excellent opportunity to lose what we have got by staying in the Union. We will save ourselves and look out that En gland does no! get Cuba. If slavery is only respected because the North lends it her countenance, its credentials are very bad, and the sooner we earn it a better reputation ; the better we shall do. It is a fact that England had some thoughts about freeing slaves in Texas at the time she became free, but the whole course ufßritisb states manship only show their sublime ignorance of the slavery question, and slavery must stand in spite of England and the North, its enly bulwark being truth and the sword. JJLet us hear no more then of the craven voices which croak of the future. Grant that the world is opposed to us and our property rights, grant that the tariff, the slave trade, the banks, the moutlisjofthe Mississippi, may be difficulties yet unsettled; but the deck of the Union ship is on fire behind us, aud whether there be sharks in the ocean of the Future or not, we must leap and swim, supported by truth and guided by the stars. We would be glad to argue at length each o f the positions taken against us; but time will not permit. It has simply been our purpose to give a key to every door in the “ Doubting Castle,” which the foes of secession use to imprison thought. In conclusion, we are happy to be able to inform our readers, that Georgia is committed to dis union, on the failure of new guarantees—a respec table minority of the couuties having decided for immediate secession—and all amendments to the Constitution having been refused, we can enlertain a i doubt of her being out of the Uniou by the 4th ot March, IS6I. Then alone, or with others, she will still be Gsobgia— “Forever strong in conscious might. Her pillared fla* in faith unfurled. Aud her star still shining in steady light, Ou the very evening of the world.” Cranberry Culture is New Jersey. —Much j attention is given to the cultivation of cranber- ! ries in Burlington county. About 150 acres ‘ have been planted this season; of this, one far- j tner named Chetwood set out 25 acres; another, ! named G. Gowdy, 17; and Mr. Allen is plant ing 10 acres. This patch yields 150 bushels per acre. Mr. Allen is selling his for S4 per bushel, ; delivered at the house. The whole expens per | acre, for building a dam. clearing the ground of roots and settiugvmt the plants, is only about SIOO. Alleu’s patch has cost $25 per acre for merely setting out the plants, but this is unusu- j al. It costs fifty or sixty cents per bushel to | gather them, a process which is accomplished simply by scooping up the berries with the hand. The work is mostly done by womeu and children. JOINT RESOLUTION PROPOSING AMENT- M £NTS TO THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES. Whereas, serious and alarming dissensions have arisen between the northern and southern Statep, concerning the rights and security of the rights of the slaveholding States, and especially (heir rights in the common territory of the United States; and whereas, it is eminently desirable and proper that these dissensions, which now threaten the very existence of this Union, should be permanently quieted and settled bv Constitu tional provisions, which shall do equal justice to all sections, and thereby restore to the people that peace and good will which ought to prevail between all tbe eitizens of tbe United States: therefore, Resolrei, By the Senate and House of Represen tatives of the United States of America, in Con gress asembled, two-thirds concurring, that the following articles De, and are hereby, proposed and submitted as amendments to tbe Constitution of tbe United States, which shall be valid to all intents ami purposes as part of said Constitution, when ratified by conventions of three-fourths ot the several States: Art. 1. In all the territory of the United States now held or hereafter acquired, situate North o latitude thirty-six degrees , and thirty minutes, slavery or involuntary servitude, except as a puns ishment for crime, is prohibited, while such terri tory shall remain under territorial government. In all the territory South of said line of latitude, slavery of the African race is hereby recognised as existing, aud shall riot be interfered with by Congress; but shall be protected as property by all the departments of the territorial government during its continuance; and when any Territory, North or South ot said line, within such boundaries as Congress may prescribe, shall contain tbe pop ulation requisite for a member of Congress, accord ing to the then Federal ratio of representation of the people ot the United States, it shall, if its form of government be republican, be admitted into the Union on an equal footing with the original Slates, with or without slavery, as the Constitution of such new Slate may provide. Art. 2. -Congress shall have no power to abolish slavery in places under its exclusive jurisdiction, and situate within the limits of States that permit the holding of slaves. Art. 3. Congress shall have no power to abol ish slavery within the District ot Columbia, so long as it exists in the adjoining States of Vir ginia aud Maryland, e,r either, nor without the conseut of the inhabitants, nor without just com pensation first made to such owners of slaves as do not consent to such abolishment. Nor shall Congressat anytime prohibit officers of the Fed eral Uoverment or members of Congress, whose duties require them to be in said District, from bringing with them their slaves aud holding them, as such, during the time their duties may require them to reuiaiu there, aud afterwards taking them from the District. Art. 4. Congress shall have no power to pro hibit or hinder the transportation of slaves from one State to another, or to a Territory in which slaves are by law permitted to be held, whether that transportation be by land, navigable rivers, or by the sea. Art. 5. That, in addition to the provisions of the third paragraph of the second section of the fourth article of tbe Constitution of the United States, Congress shall have power to provide, bv law, aud it shall be its duty so to provide, that the United States shall pay to the owuer who shall apply for it, the full value of his fugitive slave, in all cases, when the marshal, or other officer, whose duty it was to ar rest said fugitive, was prevented from so doing by violence or intimidation ; or when, after arrest, said fugitive was rescued by force, and the owner thereby prevented and obstructed in the pursuit of his remedy for the recovery of his slave, under the said clause of the Constitution and the laws made in pursuance thereof. And in all such cases, when the United States shall pay for such fugitive, they shall have the right, in their own name, to sue the county in which said vio lence, intimidation, or rescue was committed, and to recover from it, with interest aud damages, the amount paid by them for said fugitive slave. And the said county, after it has paid said amount to the United States, may, for its indemnity, sue aud re cover from tbe wrong-doers, or rescuers, by whom the owner was prevented from the recovery of his fugitive slave, in like manner as the owner him seif might have sued and recovered. Art. 6. No future amendment of the Constitu tion shall affect the five preceidng Articles, nor the third paragraph of the second section of the first article of the Constitution, nor the third para graph of the second section of the fourth article of said Constitution; aud no amendment shall, be, mad to the Constitution which will authorise or give to Congress any power to abolish or interfere with slavery in any of the States by whose laws it is or may be allowed or permitted.

THE PEKIN GAZETTE Few of our readers have a correct idea of the importance of the Pekin Imperial Gazette the official organ of the Government, and will be sur prised to hear that it is conducted on a greater scale than any paper in Christendom, not even excepting the London Tim s. The Gazette which may be properly considered as the patriarch of periodicals, is a daily paper, got up in pamphlet form, of about sixty or seventy pages each num ber. The price oi subscription amounts to only fourteen dollars a year, or less than four cents a number, and might consequently defy any coni’ petition, eveu in these Uuiteil States, the country of cheap publications. Nothing can be put iu the columns of the Gazette without being previously and carefully read by a committee of political or literary men, according to the nature of the article. The official portion of ttie paper|is sent directly from the Cabinet of the Emperor, and is made up with a brief account of the principal events of the day, judiciary reports, a leader on the political sit uation, petitions and memoirs addressed to the Sovereign, together with his auswers, his orders, instructions to the mandarins, and whatever he chooses to give of ins views on various questions. Nothing is to be altered in those official articles even involuntarily, under the penalty of death ! Therefore, the unfortunate compositors and proof readers of the Imperial paper live in a continual state of trepidation ; for all know how easy it is for a type setter, in a hurry, to mistake one letter for another. The newspapers in the provinces are obliged to republish that official portion of the Gazeite for which the public has the greatest rev ereuce, and which is, by that way, a powerful in strument of government, centralization, and of justice. It can be understood by that, how impor tant it is for Christian diplomats,concluding treaties with the Chinese Government, to insist on having them published in the Imperial Gazette. It is the best sanction which they cau receive, and, more over, a kind of public consecration. The remainder of the paper is made up pretty much as our own newepapers, with various pieces of intelligence, items of all kinds, and literary ar tides; with this difference, however, that the greater number of columns is devoted to poetry, tables, odes, and poems, particularly on the virtues, genius, and one thousand and one admirable quali ties of ilie Emperor. The Gazette has also, as well as the French papers, hftuilUton, or serial novel, generally writlen by the most popular pens of the age. With the exception of the ugly things said in those novels of the Western devils—i. e., the Fou-lanq-sai, (French,) and Inki-li, (English,) which are, of course, nonsensical falsehoods, the Gazette is written in a most creditable manner, and we may hope, one day before long, to see that model of Chinese newspapers exchanging with our owe, and contributing a fair quota of extracts to the American periodicals. <PEKIMENTS WITH PLASTER ON PEA FAL LOW. -’ast year had two barrels plaster, (all I had) SOVk on a part of my pea fallow ; the plaster was -.plied to the poorest and lightest part of of tlu.j e y a t the rate of a half bushel per aero; the pe, p a( i about s ; x or eight leaves at the time tm-ipplication was made.

THE SOUTHERN FIELD AND FIRESIDE This excellent paper bolds its own, and we bor row from it ihe following, which i‘s editor bor rowed from somewhere: BENNY'. I had told him Christinas morning, As he sat upon my knee. Holding iast his little stockings, Stuffed as fitll as full could be, And attentive listening to me, With a face demure and mi id. That old Santa Claus, who filled them, Did not love a naughty child. “ But we’ll lb good, won’t we, moder ?” And from off my lap he slid, Digging dee? among the goodies lu his crimson stockings hid; While X turned me to my table, Where a temptiig goblet stood. Brimming hi <h with dainty egg-nog. Sent me try’ a neighbour good. But the kitten, thee before me, With his white ptw, nothing loth, Sat, by wav of entertainment. Slapping"off the mining froth; And, in not the gentlest humour, At the loss of suca a treat, I confess I rather rutely Thrust him out Into the street. Then, how Benny's Hue eye kindled! Gathering up the precious sture He had busily been touring In his tiny “pinafore. With a generous look that shamed me, Spraughe from the tarpet bright, Showing, by his mien indignant, All a baby’s sense of right. “ Come back, Harney!” called he, loudly, As he held his apron vhitc— “ You shall have my candy wabbit! ” But the door was fastend tight; So he stood, abashed and lilent. In the centre of the floor. With defeated look altermto Bent on me and on the ifcor. Then, as by some sudden impulse. Quickly ran he to the firn And while eagerly his hri girt eyes Watched the flames go high and higher, In a brave, clear key, he shotted. Like some lordly’little elf, “Santa Kaus, come down de thimney, Make iny moder ‘have hemlf t” “ I’ll be a good girl, Benny,” Said 1, feeling the reproof; i And straightway called poor Harney, Mewing on the gallery roof. Soon the anger was forgotten. Laughter chased away the friwn, And they gambolled ’neath the live oaks Till the dusty night came dorn. In my dim, fire-lighted chamber, Harney purred beneath mvelilir. And my play-worn boy beside nb, Knelt to say hisevening prayer: “ God boss Fader—God boss Moder, God bless Sister”—then a pause, And the sweet young lips devout,y Murmured, “God boss Santa Ktus!” Hois sleeping—brown and silken Lie the lushes, long and meek. Like caressing, clinging shadows On his plump and peachy cheek; And 1 bend above him, weeping Thankful tears—Oh, Undefiled I For a woman’s crown of glory, For the blessing of a child.

Of ten originating in carelessness, or sedentary kablU.it Is re garded as a slig ,t disorder of too little consequence to excite anxiety, while, in reality, it is the precursor and companion of many of the most fatal and dangerous diseases, and unless earlyeradicat-d.it will bring the sufferer to an untimely g'ave. Among the lighter evils of which Costiveneas Is the usual attendant are, Headache, Colic. Rheumatism, Foul Breath, Piles, and others of like nature, while a long train of fri rlitful disrnsea, such :is Malignant Fevers, Abctsses, Dy seutery, Dlarrhopa, Dyspepsia. Apoplexy, Epilepsy, Pauly, sis, Hysteria, Hypochondriasis, Melancholly, and Insanlty4tirst indicate their presence in the system by “this alarming symp. tom. Not (infrequently the diseases named originate in Con stipation, but take on an independent existence, unless the cause is eradicated In an early stage. £From all tiiese consid orations, it follows that tho disorder should receive immediate attention whenever it occurs, and no person should neglect to get a box of Cephalic Pills on the flrst appearance of the c no plaint, as their timely use will expel the insi ious approac :,n of disease, and destroy this dangerous foe to human life.

Mr. Spalding has sold two millions es bottles of his cele. brated Prepared Glue, and it is estimated that each buttle saves at least ten dollars werth of broken furniture, tirus making an aggregate of twenty millions of dollars reclaimed from total loss by this valuable invention. Having made his Glue a household word, he now proposes to do the world stilt greater service bycuringal! the aching hpads with his Cephal ic Pills, and if they ar as good as his Glue, Headaches will soon vanish away like snow in July. WOv*b bxcitxhxnt, and the mcnlai care and anxiety is cident to close attention to business or study, are among tie numerous causes of Nervous Headache. The disordered stale o mind and body incident to this distressing complaint ts a fatat blow to all energy and ambition. Sufferers by this dis order can always obtain speedy relief from these distressing attacks, by using one of tbe Cephalic Pills whenever the symptoms appear. It quiets the overtasked brain, and soothes the strained and Jarring nerves, aud relaxes the tension of the stomach, which always accompanies aud aggravates the dis ordered condition of the brain. i'art 1 %*orth fcnoiriaii.
