IHE GREAT WESTERN,

bene ns, as il xli. be particularly devoted to the inter
est of tbe Western S ates. and designed to embrace
an intelligence o imporiadce, both of the United
Stales and of fireign governments.
The Great Western will be devoted mainly to
CommercCj wui support the interests of .Agriculture,
and will .ake Us po.itical pod ion and plain ns.-lani
ard Upon the broad parapet of Democracy ; it will also
extern! its notice to he interests of JJec/ui/iics , and to

Commerce.— The larger portion of this piper will
be strictly commercial. All intelligence of importance
of tins character, both domestic and foreign, will be
summed up at as early a moment as possible, so as to
afford our mercan'ilc patrons every description of
news which hev can desire, under this head.
Agriculture.— Wlile every other branch of
industry in the United Stales is receiving fresh and
encouraging impulses for perseverance, this, most
important of a,l, set ms to flag behind the general
march ot improvement and prosperity; and, instead
of being placed at the head of our genera, national
policy, and receiving t.hat fostering care and protection
l<* which it is so pre-eminently entitled, is left to grope
its way, simply by the dint of that perseverance and
unwearied industry so characteristic of our har iy
countrymen.
Il will be our especial care lo sustain the interests
of this class of our fellow citizens.
Politics. —This department of our paper is one in
which every c.ass of our citizens is interested. Under
this iiead we sh 11 give he general political intelli
gence of the whole country; while we. as the con
ductors ol a public journal, are determined, without
fear, favor, or affecti n, to support, with all our zeal,
such measures of policy as alone will tend, in our
opinion, to the promotion of our general prosperity as
a people, the perpetuation of our liberlies, and our
beloved Union.
This p iper, tiierefore, will be purely Democratic
in it principles ; having for. its object the diffusion of
ejual rights equal blessings, ami equal burthens, there
by promoting the general happiness of ihe people;
and to this end wil. alt our energies be di ected.
With regaid to the great questions of policy which
are now agitating ihe people of the United States,
respecting the currency, we unhesitatingly declare our
entire pr. terence ol the Independent Treasury Sys
tem, from our belief of iis strict constitutionality, and,
in its tendency, better calculate! to promote the gene
ral prosperity of all classes, than any other which, in
our view, can be conceived
We are strie. constructionists of the Federal Con
stitution, and shad always oppose those splendid
schemes, or * American System <’ of monopoly, which
have ever characterised the policy of the Federal
opposition, recognising no implied interpretations of
that instrument, and believing that the “GENERAL
WELFARE’ ol every portion of our wide-spr.ad
I c mfedei acy depend.- on a -tricl adherance to its plain
and straightforward meaning we shall not be sparing
i in our expos. Hons and denunciations of those daring
; attempts which have and are now being made by
I the reckless and aspiring leaders of the Federal
Party, to rend asunder this glorious CwtnTv nos
I our rigrits and and tear upon its ruins a
I splendid ARig.’nidtACY f wealth and power.
Earnestly advocating therefore, as we shall always
; do, these great and fundamental pnnciples of our go
vernment, which were conceived by a virtuous and

Hundreds and thousands bless the day they became
acquainted with Peters’ Vegetable Pills, which, in
consequence of their extraordinary goodness, have at
tained a popularity unprecedented in the history of
medicine.
The very circumstance alone that Physicians, m
every part of the Union, (but more especially in the
Sou.hern States, where they have long been in use,)
are making free use of them in thur practice, speaks
volumes in their praise. Add lo this fact, that all who
use invariably recommend them to their friends, and
the testimony in their favor is almost irresistibl . As
an An'i-bihous remedy, and to prevent Cosiiveness,

Dear Sir—l embrace the opportunity of expressing
to you my gratification at the success which has attend
ed the administration of your valuable Pills in (Ins
section of countiy. It is a common fault with thosi
who compound and vend paient medicines to say to
much in their favor, but from what I have seen of th
effect of your pills I do not think they have, as yet
received unmerited praise. i\ months ago they wen
almost entirely unknown in this part of Virginia; the)
are now the most popular pills we have. In dyspepsit
and sick headache, derangement of the biliary organs
and obstinate constipation of the bowels, l know of n.
aperient more prompt and efficacious.
Their mildness and certainty of action render them
a safe and efficient purgative for weakly individuals,
and may be given at all times without any of those
injurious consequences that frequently result from the
long continued use of calomel or blue pills. On the
whole, 1 consider them a valuable discovery.
Very respectfully.

YELLOW FEVER CUREU
WITH BRANOIISSriI’S PILLS.
MR. ARNOLD, who last August boarded with
Mrs. \Vai and, near the corru rof Tchapilolas and
Girod streets, was attacked with Yellow Fever, and
immediately swallowed 15 Pills, and then took 10 Pills
every hour for 7 hours afterwards. During the seven
hours they appeared to produce no effect, but ai the
end of that time a feeling of faintness came over him
and he thought the last hour of his existence was at
htjid. He then Gamed himself for putting faith in
Brandreth’s Pills. He told his nurse if he was deliri
ous, to continue to give more, as he had begun he
made up his mind to con-mue ’hem even in the state
he was. Scarcely had he given th-,;.e orders when he
raised his hand to his face, and. to ■ his own expres
sion, there were upon it drops . r pi; ns pi ration as
large as buck shui. ii found that he had bro
ken out into the most,.profuse inspiration. Almost
immediately the Pills began to ake effect, and lie de
scribes the evacuation* as of the most dreadful kind,
black and putrid to suifocaiion. The doors and win
dows were obliged to be thrown open. He was out of
danger within 24 hours of the commencement of the
attack, and by taking 15 Pills night and morning, on
the 4ih day he was out, and in 10 days entirely reco
vered.
TANARUS: is I (Dr. Brandreth) would guarantee would be
the case in ninety cases of 4 eliow Fever out of a hun
dred, was the above method adopted on the commence
ment.
Dr. Franklin never spoke more truly than when he
said “ a stitch in litne,” &c.
Would the people were wise—time may convince.
All fevers are occasioned by the disordered motion
of the blood, produced by the Immoral serosi.y harden
ing the valves of the vessels The blood circulates

by the fried m of the .•■lobules, or particles which com

ed in rite following
SHORT SENTENCE :
On the first attack us Ever, or any disease, immedi
ately take a large dose of
braiidrettis Vegetable Universal Tills ,
And continue to keep up a powerful effect on the
bowels until the fever or pain has entirely ceased. j
f Zj- > These Fills are an assistant oe nature,
and afford perfect r lief whenever any organs of the
body are unhealthy, restoring health arid strength by
removing accumulated impurities—otherwise, in simple
language, vitiated humors. This is following . autre —
this is taking disease out of the btiy—and no other
way can cure disease hut taking it out. It must bo
carried away from the body, not merely changed , as is
the case when blue pill nr calomel is given, or any of
the numerous miner A medicines. Ft is in consequence
of the perspiration which arises from the Thompsonian
practice that has 1 trought it lino notice—but sweating
is nothing, om ared to purging with Brandreth’s Fills,
in the good effects on the body. One dose of 10 Pills
will remove more bad humors, by the stomach and
bowels, than a dozen vapor baths, on Thompsonian or
other principles could remove. Purging and sweating
is ai! that is required to cure disease, no matter vvhat
kind — lT CAN BE CURED IN NO OTHER WAV. BRAN-
DitETH’S FILLS are both sudorific and cathartic I
—'hat is, produce both sweaiing and purging. In;
some cases they produce vomiting ; that is only when
the stomach is in such a state of foulness that it cannot
cleanse itself by anv other means. They always pro- !
duce health, because they invariably excite every or- !
gan to healthy action—in other words, THEY’ AS
SIST na'iire to bring about such a slate of things as
necessarily causes this desirable result.
No method is so sensible as following Nature
Mankind have been long enough out of he path, and j
unfortunately after anything but common sens--, and j
guided by any whim bur reason. Let us abandon, ;
then, false notion -and falser practices— ; et us endeavor ;
to resume the path of nature, and be guided by the light {
of reason—let us cease to ruin our eyes by gas or can- j
die light, and we shall need no opticians—let us cease
doing those things which are con’rav to the nature of
our bodies, and we shall need no physicians—let us
endeavor to find out what is na ure, what a e the laws
that govern her. In this work experience must be our
teacher, and prejudice must be forever di carded as :

Somerton, May 14 1837.
Mr. R. S. Bernard :
Dear Sir—This is to inform you I have tested the
i efficacy of your Remedy for Cholera in several instan
ces that have lately come under my care, and that its
effects evince it to be a judicious preparation—one emi
nently serviceable, 1 will say altogether competent to
: cure the diseases for which it is recommended. I feel
no hesitation, therefore, in declaring that for the treat
ment of such disorders, l shall regularly dispense your
Remedy from my office, and w ould retamum nd it to be
kept in all families liable to these dangerous attacks.
Y'ou may use this certificate as you will.
Your’s, very respectfully,
YV. L. PARHAM.
This certificate was given to my agent, E. P. Nashy
of Peteftburg, and for its importance notice Mr. Nash’s
remarks :
“ As agent for Bernard’s Cholera and Diarrhoea Me-
I dicine, 1 ca I the attention of the public to the certificate
below from one ot’ the most respectable gentlemen in
! the S:a e; and I particularly cal! their attention to the
one given by a gentleman m this town— ami if it were
i necessary, 1 could produce a half dozen others from
Petersburg, who have tried the medicine within two
weeks past. EDYV. P. NASH.
Mr. Edward P. JVask, Agent for Bernard’s Cholera
Medicine.
Dear Sir: I feel it a duty I owe to the proprietor ot
: the above medicine, as well as the public generally, to
; inform you that the bottle of Cholera mixture which
I bought at your store a few evenings since, has entire
ly cured me of a severe Diarrhoea. The cure was
effected in taking only two doses; and as 1 had tried
many other remedies without the least effect, I am fully
of the opinion that the medicine here alluded to is eve y
thing that it is said to be.
JAS. S. WALLACE, Petersburg, Vn.
Who will neglect to supply themselves with Ber
nard’s Remedy for Clit'lera, when it is so fully proven
to he efficacious ill all the diseases for which it is re
commended/ In no ease has it failed to cure the most
obstinate attacks of summer complaint made upon chil
dren. In one instance a permanent cure was effected
upon a child in this piace after the summer complaint
had put it (as thought hy the doctors) beyond the pow
er of medicine to relieve. Ii was such an aggravated
case that the child had, in the course of one day and
night, sixty-three evacuations from the bowels. Y’el
one bottle proved a sovereign remedy.
Extract from one of my agents—
Petersburg, June 4, I83&.
Air. R. S. Bernard—Dear Sir: Your Cholera Me
! dicine is highly thought of ill Petersburg and adjacent
counties; l have never sold a bottle out ol the whole
that 1 have sold which lias not. so far as I could ascer
tain, proved effectual in curing; 1 have never had a
I complaint—but many commendations of its good ef
fects have been gi\en me. Y’cu may. as far as my

i have sold it goes, recommend it highly to any and all
