from tlic best information derived from our am
ple sources, tho Wheat crop in oar Cherokee
Georgia has never been known as promising at
this season o’f ilio year since the country has
been settled, as at the present. If the present
prospect should bo realized, with some of the I
best flour mills in the State to manufacture it,
wo hope to be able to supply our Southern cus.
tomers with any quantity equal to the best
Baltimore brands and' equally ns cheap.” *
MESSRS. WEBSTER AND INGERSOLL.
Sir. Ingcrsoll has given the particulars of his
charges made some time since in the House of
Representatives, against Mr. Webster, which
wo insert in another column, from the corres
pondent of tho Charles-ton News.
As we have heretofore made some remarks
upon this controversy, wo will endeavor, as it
progresses, to give both the accused and accu
ser a fair hearing. The affair has assumed a
shape now which gives it a painful interest, and
cannot be viewed, no matter how it terminates,
without deep national regret and mortification.
A New York paper ridicules the modern
practice of bestowing classical and other high
sounding names upon the most ordinary build
ings of brick and wood in the towns and cities
of this country. Ho speaks like a sen-ible
man, and we agree with him entirely. Equal
ly riJiculous is the practice which is no Jess
common throughout the country of attempting
to follow the Greek and Roman models iii the
most ordiuury specimens’ of architecture.—
There is scarcely a town in the country which
does not either in its private or public edifices
sport a counterpart of tho Pantheon at Rome,
or the Temple of the winds at Athens. Rut we
only iuteuded to give the following extract
from the paper above mentioned, and not an
article of our own on the subject.
•• There is something exceedingly ridiculous
in that siily practice—a practice that proves
two very unfortunate failings upon us. In the
first place it convicts us of an utter lack of ori
ginality and invention ; and, secondly, of mis
erable hankering after the magniloquent. If
we put up a splendid building, why should we
ransack the pages of Greek and Roman lore
fur a name by which to call it ? Is it not possi
ble to erect a public or private edifice of any
architectural pretensions without calling it a
Colliseum, a Pantheon, or an Acropolis f Is
there really no such thing ns an original local
idea in our heads I Is there nothing in our
country, our character, our history, or our sce
nery to suggest an appropriate designation for
n plan or a pretty building I Rut this ubsurd
custom ol culling all our fine buildings after
some celebrated structure of ancient or modern
times in other countries is by no means the
worst leature of the case. We can scarcclv
erect a tavern or a concert room with any thing
like u Christian or an American cognomen.—
1 fii-it Item in litis short account concerning McLeod,
will show how l was led from that to other object- ; an i
some oi’the other items will show the seems whom, as Se
cretary of Bute, Mr. Webster employed. Moth houses ol
Congress, it not the public at large, have not been left in
ignorance or the characters of some of those on whom the
Secretary ol Bute bestowed large sums of public rnouey
if their receipts correct ly vouch what they got. J '
in a memorandum of payments to Mr. Webster, by au
thority of the President, there is a minute dated June *1842
•• By cash returned, #5.000."
Alter drawing aiSjlOO to himself during fifteen months,
during winch period there is no trace of what he did with
those targe sums, he appears to have returned one third
of the amount withdrawn. Why return it. it taken for any
public purpose 7 Where bad it been kept. If in any
ple.ee ot deposiie, was it-separate from Mr. Webster's pri
vate funds 7 Did be use it f
The $5,000 were returned ten days after, according to
the published correspondence, bis negotiation with the
Britt,h Envoy Extraordinary, began by conversational and
confidential intercourse without protocols or other usual
records of such transactions. .
In 1843. Mr. Webster look to bimself $2,000 more, ma
king altogether $17,000.
Unclosing his account, crediting the $5,000 returned,
and various other aums, there remained a balance against
him of $2,200 of the secret service fund. Ono of his creii-
ns against it was for $1,400, published in House document,
report No. 29, first session, 2Sih Congress—report of Mr.
Regers for maps, charts, surveys, and expenses of bring
ing them to the seat of Government, ami for copies of t:an-
scripts, and for various agencies to procure infoimauoo con
nected with the boundary treaty.
Thia inarticulate aud comprehensive mixture of many in
congruous items, without specification of prices, dates, or
any apparent test of rectitude. Mr. Secretary Webster cer
tified himself as a proper credit for himself, and deducted
from his debt to the secret service fund. Without that
credit Itis default to that fund would have b,en $5,690, in
stead of $2,290, which jt was wkeu he was removed from
office.
The #17,000 were in his hands, contrary to uniform usage;
if used by him, contraiy to the aultreasurv act. Whether
so, is for him to make appear. The burden of proof is on
him.
Secondly: Appl.cation of the secret service fund to cor
rupt party presses. The Ashburton treaty bears date the
9th August, 1842. Congress were then in session; and, as
Mr. Adams has charged me lately, and I confess Idid what
little 1 could aa one of a small minority in the House of Re-
presentatives (we hail forty voles, I think, under the previ
ous question) to resist a treaty which Mr. Webster lias
lately stated in the Seriate granted nearly half a million of
dollars from the treasury of the Uoited States to the people
of Maine and.Massachusetts. 1 then desited to contend,
when put down by the. previous question, that the House
of Representatives had a constitutional right to pass on
such a treaty.
What i am now enabled to add, of revelation from the
Department of State, will prove that my instincts of aver
sion to the treaty were even truer than reason.
In the Department of Stale there is now a letter signed
F. O. J. Smith, marked private, dated Portland, the 12th
August, 1842, addressed u Mr. Webster, Secretary of
State, substantially as follows
It begins with congratulating Mr. Webster on his settle
metit of the Maine boundary question by a nnr Mode of
approaching the subject, alter forty years of diplomacy,
without which new mode another forty years of diplomacy
would have come to nothing.
Wo apply tho most ridiculous and most ( pre-
posteruus names to every tiling, from a town
ball to an oysti r cellar.
In Providence is a very plain wooden struc
ture devoted to lectures and other tilings of
the sort, which has been christened ‘•Westmin
ster Hall.” In this city we rejoice in what is
nf itself a very fine establishment fur ice-creams
an I the exhibition of Ethiopian opera, called
‘Tho Alh imbra;” and there was, if there is
imt now, an excellent eating-house bearing the
stine -Moorish designation, as though it added
any tiling to the respectability of eiilier of them
to run such u ridiculous parallel wiilt tlie gor
geous palace of the kings of Grenada. Wc
are full loo of our Minervus, our Apollos, our
Ailientc ini<, and Heaven only knows what oth
er application of Classic, Gothic, Turkish, and.
Ititliitn noinend iture to the di niuulive propor
tions of the buildings thus rendered ludicrous
by association. It is almost time to have none
wuh such nonsense.”

WASHINGTON. Apiit 27. 1846.
"* tad considerable excitement in me House lo-iiny,
as Mr. 0. 4. Ingersoll who it was supposed bad gone to
ll'Utin, appeared at his post, anj gave the particulars if Isis
tperififuh »rn against Mr. Webster, all of which be said
ould he proved by written evidence in the Department of
time, winch he had seen himself. Although the statement
is long, | do nut see how it can with propriety be condens
ed, as there are direel cnarges, which the country will de-
tushd stall be investigated as an act of justice to all parties.
The following, therefore, is a copy of the written slaiemcul
of Mr. Ingersi.il:
Mr. Speaker: When Mr. Webster, in virulent terms,
is Senile, assnileo my truth, concerning transactions of
winch proofs ought to be in the Department of State. 1
sent there in search of them foi tny vindication. Asa inetx-
nsrofthe Committee of Foreign A (fairs, for spine years, I
hire some freedom of access there, though probably none
which any other member of Congress is not entitled to.
Starching lor proofs, not to expose liiip, but vindicate
tnyself, I fell most unexpectedly on others, which ied me,
**’**'d»y, to denounce him as a delinquent.
When the President’s answer to the restitution of the
House of Representatives refused certain documents, I
repeated, in general assertion, toe fact of his delinquency,
•aa added wltat tseaaily susceptible of proof. My friends
sdvued me to go no further, supposing that Mr. Webster
»ou! i challenge investigation.
Not having done so, but having agiin, with opprobrious
language, in the Senate, charged me with slander, and
eslled on me to substantiate my accusation of him, I now
submit s short statement, which may bo tested as to truth.
J here are three charges of delinquency ;
rirtt. Unlawful use of the fund appropriated for the
contingent service of foreign intercourse, corn uonly called
Hie secret service fund.
Secondly. Misapplying part of that fund to corrupt par-
<7 presses.
Thirdly,
tint fund.
Pin*. Congress appropriates annually a small sum,
pstnnxmly $30,000, for the contingent expenses of foreign
intercourse; the disbursement of part of whtci is sometimes
“••fully clandestine, but never, as has been erroneously
•apposed, corrupt. Whenever, in the President's opinion,
j. would I e wrong to make public how snv part of it if
disposed of, he so certifies, and, by act of Congress, his'
mere certificate is a sufficient voucherat tho treasury for the
required settlement.
The funds have, for the last sixteen years, if not always,
**«uin the bends of • clerk, called by acts of C-mgre-s,
the disbursing agent of the Department of 8tote, who
sept them in banks, et agent. Tho official routine is fur

•fent is debited at the treaaury with the turn drawn into
(he Department of State, keeps it to his credit as agent,
•u tank, and gives checks as requited by the Secretary for
P*jment to any person be may designate.
In this way the first cheek i saw, when I went to the de*
Pytmeot was drawn hy the agent for the service at New
*°rk in McLeod’s case, $1,000.
But, shortly after President Harrison's death, and before
President Tyler was at home in chief magistracy—in
A P r >l, 1841—Mr. Secretary Webster began an entirely
*°*el method of dealing with the secret service fund, in-
•lesii of directing the disbursing agent to pay any third

[Mr. F. O. J. Smith seems to have-suggested the boast
with whmb his correspondent Mr. Webster hugged himself
in his elaborate vindication in Senate.]
Mr. Smith informs Mr. Webster by this letter that he
Had occasion to resort to services and influences, in ordee
to adjust the lone and direction af THE rsitTY presses,
and through them of public sentiment, to a purpose so de
sirable of accomplishment under Mr. Webster's adminis
tration.
Mr Smith, therefore, submits a claim or account, if l
r. co!l-ct right, in binnh for Mr. Webster to fill up, of which
lie cal’s for payment out of the contingent fund. Mr. Smith
presumes that the contingent fund wit 1 he ample, and Mr.
Webster’s couirol of it complete, to do whatever he uiay
thins just.
The sum Mr. Smith vouches as got hy hint from Mr.
Webster are 82,000 for services connected with the north
eastern boundary, and two years after be vouches $500
more, as will be shown.
Thirdly. Leaving the Department of State in debt to the
secret service fund $2,290.
The records , d the department show this default beyond
all denial or question.
They show, furthermore, that it was neither paid or ac
counted fir during neatly two years after Mr. Webster’s
removal from office.
They show several letters sent to him by President Ty
ler's direction, urging payment, and evasive letters of ex
cuse from Mr. Webster for non-payment.
At length, a peremptory letter that exposure would or
might be the consequence of more delay, produced reim
bursements. Bill settlement did not tske place till the 1st
February, 1313, ten days before President Polk arrived Vu
Washington, lobe inaugurated, vdieti Mr. Webster pro
duced another voucher, from Mr. F. O. J. Smith, for an
additional 4i.,00, and other vouchers, o,.e from George
Smith for $590.
Georgo Smith, since dead, ilen’ed that he had ever been
paid or vouched more than SI50; to which sum Mr. Web-
ster reduced the So00 at first demanded, as l.is agent, now
in Washington, wilt prove.
Granting all the vouchers Mr. Webster produced, t'tere
was nevertheless a balance of snout $1,200 due from him,
et ail evettls, when he left the department. That sum was
in default so the secret service luttrl, after crediting every
thing in the way of repayment, ofi’set, or voucher, that he
claimed.
In all 1 liavesaiJ in this affair, no allusion has been made
to any private aggravation. Regretting the exposure for-
ceil from me, having afforded Mr. Webster several opportu
nkiesto meet the charges in his own wav, that which he
chose, left me no alternative but this 1'orbeurinj justifica
tion uf tnyself.
-A resolution, or committee, which I cannot institute, will
soo n test the truth of tny statements.
Mr. lugersoll in reply to a question from Mr. Hunter,
said be had'eceived no information from Mr. Twist who
was acting Secretary **f State at the .time alluded to. In
answer to another question from Mr. Bailey of Vn„ he said
he disclaimed any imputation or blame upon Mr. Tyler in
reference to the abuses.
Mr. Ashtnun of Boston, then rose to reply. He spoke
of the speech of Mr. Ingersol! as deliberate, cold blooded
ebullitions, when he was called to order hy the Speaker.
Mr. Asbmun resumed, and said lie would keep'strictly
in order. He went on to say, that by the course of Mr.
Ingersoll an offence had nut only been committed against
the reputation nf the Home but against society itself. It
was a matter of mortification that the House should be the
vehicle of such repeated vituperation. After further re
marks, Mr. A. proceeded to say that although Mr. W. had
spoken of parties and principles, lie hid never in the course
of his political life descended to personalities. He was not
aware of the slight.nl cause of personal offence to Mr. In-
gcsoli from Mr. Webster, unless it was that Mr. W. had
left him alone, not thinking him of sufficient importance to
notice him. Mr. A .aid he should have thought that il
Mr. Ingersoll had referred back to that Congress when he
fir,t wet Mr. Webster, it would have awakened a remein
brance that should hare cautioned him how he again under
took to attack a dist nguished citizen. Sir, said Mr. A.,
there was in that Congress n gentleman of the highest pat-
riotic virtue, chivahy, intelligence, character and standing,
in every respect—a (ffentleumn—from New Jersey -a gen
tleman lie knows aitmee—his thoughts ran at once to the
name of Stockton. There was in that Congress, when he
first commenced public life, n gentleman who was slander-
ed to his face. That Mr. Stockton was falsified in this
hall; mid the relrihulion that immediately followed, the
“ scarifying" process that immediately began, is within the
recollection of those who lived at that time. Sir, tradition
tells usoflbe withering, blasting aUnck of Mr. S.. in reply
to the slandercf that day, and that the man who uttered
this slander left this hall crying like a whipped schoolbov;
and I should wonder that that lesson had ever been forgot
ten. At least il has taught him one thing—never again to
utter an attack upnu a gentleman in his presence. And I
believe now, as was intimated by tny colleague the other
day, that sooner than he would have made this a.tark up
on’ Mr. Webster, if present, he would have bitten Itis
tongue ofi. But Mr. Webster is not here. He relies on
his Paine, character, the fame of his public life, and the
weak efforts of a few friends here, to defend him.
After further remarks of a very severe and rather per
sonal character, Mr.-Aslimuu said that as Mr. Ingersoll
stood forth as accuser and witness both, for no oue else
could see the papers, it was the duty of the House to ex
amine the character and motives of the witness. Said lie—
Sir. the member from Pennsylvania is the last man, so far
as the public records show, that I should suppose would
have ventured u-on stirring an inquiry into official .pecula
tions—the last man in this Haute. The records nf Con
gress I should suppose would have stared him in the face,
and have palsied his tongue when he begins to speak if
the people af the United States. Is it probable that for the
purpose of withdrawing public attention from oue state of
tilings—ibis qharge has been made against another officer?
Why, the member from Pennsylvania has held office under
this government. He held il lor a course of years, until
lie was turned out of office hy President Jackson. In the
first month of his administration, he was turned out for of
ficial peculations and the use of the moneys of—
Here there were loud calls to order, but the Speaker
said that as nil rules had been suspended in order to allow
the inembetslospeak.it was very difficult tor the Chair
to decide what was really in order and what was not.
After some tedious pro-eediugs on points of order, an
appeal was taken from tbd decision nf the Chair that all
rules were suspended, nnd the appeal was sustained.
Mr. Aslunun then proceeded, with the admonition that
he must observe the parliamentary rules of decorum. He
then produced a document from which he said it appeared
that after Mr. Ingersoll had been turned out of office by
Gen. Jackson, and when be was sued as a defaulter to the
Government, be did not pay the balance found by the Jury
agaiust him of $4000, uuul ten years afterwatds.
Mr. Joseph R. Ingersoll said he was counsel for his bro
ther on that trial, and bo would stale that the trial was
brought at the earnest request of the latter, he having made
uumerous attempts to bring the Government to a settlement,
but in vain. Moreover, on the word of a gentleman, lie
may sty that all the accounts were honorably settled ‘® “•
satisfaction ofevery one.
Mr, Asbmun, after paying # high compliment to Mr. J.
R. Ingersoll, said be must, however, refer *o the fart
that the money found doe by the jury was not paid till 10
years afterwards, ,
Mr. Ashmun went on to aay that insidious attempts had
been made to indoce Mr. Tyler to take ground on this sub
ject agtinst Mr. Webster,
Mr. C. J. Ingersoll—By me, sir.
Mr. Ashmun—Yes. by you, sir. .
Mr. Ingersoll—It is false. It is uuerly false.—It is a he,
jbe |te of# coward. (Great noise and calls to order.]
Jin. Asbmun—Yes. the aged member from Pennsylvania.
Mr. Ingersoll—I am quite y nung enough for you.
Mr. A-hmun—Yes, the aged member comes here to use
language towards me which be thinks can provoke me to a
personal conflict. But I come from a section of the coun
try where they neither believe in duelling, bowie knives
nor pistols, neither are they afraid of them. But if any
one tbooght be was afraid, le't him try it.
Mr A. having concluded. Mr Schenck offered a resolu
tion asking the appointment of a Select Committee to inquire
as to what means were used by Mr Ingersoll in getting his
alleged information from the State. Department, and by
whom the seal of secrecy was broken.
Ou.molion of Mr Petit, this resolution was amended so
asto authorize another Committee to investigate the truth
of the charges against Mr. Webster, with a view of im
peachment ; said Committee to have power to send for per
sons. papers, books and' vouchers. With this amendment
the resolution was adopted. So we shall have two Select
Committees at work upon the matter.
In ’he Senate, the only business oi interest was a speech
by Mr. Dix against the French 8poliationbill.
C R OP~S IN ALABAMA.
The Greensboro’ Deacon of tho 18th tilt,
says—“For the last three weeks, excepting
some three or four days, the weather husHieen
unusually cold for the season, and we undei-
stand that in several instances, in the neighbor
hood, planters have been under the necessity
of re-planting their cotton, owing to the injury
it has sustained from the cold,”
Extract of a letter from an intelligent plan
ner to a merchant of Mobile, dated
Lowndes County, Ala., April 20,1S46.
“ The loss of stands of cotton is greater than
wa9 ever before known, and not one planter in
twenty with seed to re-plant. If the failure in
stands and deficiency in seed is as great
throughout the cotton growing region as in this
aud the adjoining counties, the crop of 1846
will full short of lust year half a million of
bales.”

Indian Springs, Butts Co,
THE Subscriber, Proprietor of the Indian Spring Hotel,
for the last two 3'ears, would most respectfully inform bis
friends and patrons of this State, of South Carolitn, Ala
bama and its vicinities,-that he haa at a great expense,
erected a splendid HOTEL under the above name,
for tite ample accommodation of visitors during the ap
proaching season.
This House «. i 1 be opened on the.20th day of May next.
Tiie McIntosh llo t-e is in depth 250 feet by 42 wide—
contains between seventy and eighty large and airy rooms,
together with three spacious Drawing Rooms and a splen
did Ball Room; large and wide Piazzas extending around
the Hotel—making it what has so long been desired at this
Spring—one of tbe largest and most commodious Hotels
ever erected at any watering place in the Southern country.
During the last two seasons there has been much com
plaint for want of more accommodations for the hundreds
that daily fiock to this well known and justly celebrated
watering place.
This season there shall be no reason of complaint for
want of accommodations, or iodeed any thing connected
with this establishment.
The McIntosh House will accommodate over four hun
dred persons 1
Neither pains or expense have been spareJ in furnishing
and' fitting up this House so as to render it truly a house
for all who may favor it with their pntrotiage. - The furni
ture is all new and of the most sterling kind, having been
made up to order for this establishment.
The locoltoa of tbe McIntosh House is on the brow of
the McIntosh Hill, overlooking the Spring, for many years
the residence of the celebrated Col. McIntosh of tbe Creek
nation, so well known and associated in the Indian history
of our country.
The Subscriber; therefore, flatters himself that in order,
comfort, and systematic arrangement, the McIntosh House
shall not be surpassed; and hopes from his continued ex
ertions to please, he muy secure a share of the public pat

That you may n.»t speak ill of any, do not
delight to hear ill of them. Give no counte
nance to busy-bodies, and those that love to
talk of oilier men’s faults; or, if you cannot
decently reprove tliepi on account of their
quality, then direct the discourse some other
way ; or, if you cannot do that, by deeming
uot to mind it you may sufficiently signify that
you 3o not like it.
Many friends are lost by ill-timed jtsts;
rather lose your best jest tliau your worst
friend.
It is one of the most common errors qF man
kind to ihink that the possession of something
which they cannot attain would greatly in
crease their happiness.
It is a fair step towards happiness and virtue
to delight in tho company and conversation of
good men, and, where ihese cannot be had, it
is better to keep no company at all.
CONTEMPLATION AND ACTION.
Jean Paul Richter thus beautifully contrasts
these two qualities of the soul: “Who is the
greater sage, ho who lilts himself above the
stormy time and contemplates it without action;
or he who from the high region of raininess
throws himself into the battling tumult of the
times ? Sublime is it when the eagle soars up
ward through the storm into the clear heaven ;
bm suhlimer, when floating iu the serene blue
above, he darts down through the thick storm-
cloud to the rock-hung cyry, white his unfeath
ered young five and tremble.”
A Lawyer’s Opinion of Law.—A learn-
ed Judge being once asked how lie wotild act
if a man owed him ten pounds and refused to
pay him—“ Rather than bring an action,” said
iie, “ with its costs and uncertainly, 1 would
give him a receipt in full of all demands,”and,
after a little rumination, lie added—“ Aye, and
1 would send him, moreover, five pounds to
cover all possible costs.”
tC?” Has the Great Author of Nature provided us with
no remedy for Consumption — and the niseas s leading
thereto witch are so fearfully common in our country ?—
Has He left us to find relief from that fatal scourge by
ransacking other lauds t No, it is not so. The heat—Na
ture's own Remedy—is ready at cur hand. The Wild
Cherry and the Fine f.rimb us with a cure, where a cure
is possible. Dr. Wistitr’i Balsam of Wild Cherry, funned
by chemical extracts from Wild Cherry bark and tar, re-
jjeves oil cases of Consumption, and effectually cures
it where it 1ms not progressed so far as to be beyond cure
—subdues tbe most inveterate cases of Asthma, even of 30
and 40 years standing—stops raising of blood, after other
remedies fail —aud removes every hind of affectum of the
Lungs and Liver which our climate induces. The remark-
able efficacy of this wonderful medicine, in many diseases [ rjeiihim* II J
hitherto deemed incurable, bas excited among physicians ~ -’
great curiosity as to the precise nature of its ingredients.—

A -safe and elficient'retnedy for worms may be found in
Dr. Woodruff’s Worm Specific.
The Proprietor of the above medicine does not wish to
claim for it any more merit than it is really deserving of.
He might say many things in its favor; he might even at
tempt to pull it into notice; but as he is satisfied that a real
ly valuable Remedy needs no puffing, and disliking the
practice, he is cunten: to present some of the testimonial of
those persons who have tested its virtues, believing they
will be sufficient to convince any one who can be convinced,
of its value as a Remedy for Worms. He will oniy add,
that it has an advantage over many preparations for Worms
Oom the fact that it can be given with perfect safety to a
child of any age; nor is it uecessaty to'give any othei med
icine with it or after it, as it opetates upon the bowels,
carrying away the worms and cleansing the bowels of un
healthy secretions at tbe same time.'-A trial of it we think
will give satisfaction to any one. It may not core every
case, but such is our confidence in it, that we are willing to
warrant its benefiting in ever, instance, or the money
wiii be refunded.
Certificates.
Dr. Woodruff— Dear Sir: 1 have had a negro child that
has been sick for some time. Not knoyving what was the
matter with it, we had pretty much given up doing any thing
for it; however! as a last tesott. we concluded to try some
of your Worm Specific, thinking it probably might be
worms that had reduced it so much—accordingly we com
menced giving your “Specific," (which by the bye you have
rightly named,) when astonishing to tell il commenced pass
ing worms and continued doing so foi several days until it
had passed more than ‘200, some of them a foot or more
in length, others twisted and knotted together in hard bails,
so that they could uot be separated without cutting them
apart. Knowing that a Worm Medicine so valuable as
yours has proven to be. would be used hy hundreds, if they
only knew of its virtues, I have concluded to give you this
certificate, so that all may know where to fiud a medicine
that can be relied on. JOSEPH SHIPPEY.
Columbus. July 29, 1845.
lie m ark able Cure of Tenia, or Tape Worm.
This is to certify, that I have made use of Dr. Wood
ruffs "Worm Specific,” in my family in several cases,
with th*. happiest effect. In one case it brought away im
mediately some SO worms of the kind called Ascariaes—
but its most remarkable effect was exhibited in another
case, a girl of rather delicate health, who complained pretty
constantly of her abdomen. Being satisfied that she had
been troubled with worms of some kind, we administered
iIm Specific, and to our astonishment, it brought from her
a number of pieces of Tape Worm, from two to six or
eight inches in length! Siuce that time Iter health has con
siderably improved: and I have no doubt but that tbe med
icine hn$ relieved Iter of that much to be dreaded worm.
The Specific is in high repute in this place, ana is without
doubt a valuable remedy for worms.

From Dr. J. K Turner.
Dear Sir—I have tested your “Worm Specific," until I
am fuily satisfied of its virtues. But a few days since I
prescribed it in a case of Irritative Fever from Worms.
The child had been very sick for two or three days, high
fever all the time, for which I gave your Specific; less than
a bottle cured the child perfectly. The parents now set a
high estimate upon il, for it is an excellent remedy for
worms. Respectfully, Ac.
Pine Valley. Aug. 6, 1845.
Dear Sir—I have sold several bottles of your “Worm
Specific,” and as far as I have heard from it. il has produc
ed the most salutary -fleet—giving almost immediate relief.
I have used it myself, and have never given one dose but
that it bad the desired effect, and brought away worms.
Yours, Ac. A. WHITTEN.

From Dr. Af. Padgett.
Dr Woodruff: Your “Worm Specific" has given gene-

excellent cathartic for children, much belter than Castor
Oil. I frequently use it in tny practice in that way.
