To the People or Virgin!*.
Fellow Citizens:
I have aow finished the canvass of thj
Shite. On the 7th itut., at Leesburj
my lost appointment. IncessgpM*” 1 ex c es :
sive labors, For 127 days, h*v® so impaired
my health and streeg^T that I must desist
from further effort and seek rest. I retire
from the “slump” the less reluctantly, be
cause 1 may now justly claim that I have
faithfully tried to do my part, and I can con-
ftuthfully tried to ao my part, ana i can con
fidently leave the rest to the unsubdued and
unterrified Democracy and its loyal host3.
Never were the sound, conservative, con
scientious, and stake-holding Republicans
in Virginia, better organized and more
aroused than they are at the present time.
It has been deserted by a few who left their
party for its good; but, in turn, thevery flower
of the old opposition of Whiggery, respectar
ble in times past for its profession of conser
vatism. and of its love of law and order, have
chosen to elect Democracy with all the ills
they complain of it, rather than to fly to
those they “ know not of.”
The personnel of the party was never more
purified, and the numerical majority was
never larger than it promises to be at the
coming election. As in 1801, the Democ
racy stood “like a wall,” and rolled back
the tide of federalism, so now it stands and
will roll back the tide of fanaticism ! It
will prove itself to be the visible invincible !
It is roused, and will rally to the polls 10,-
000 voters more than ever gave the viva
voce before! And the viva voce will rend
the veil from the “ invisible,” and defend
the freedom and independence of the elec
tive franchise and the Constitution and the
laws, against the conspiracy of the dark
lantern.
It will forbid any power in Virginia to
interpose between our conscience and our
God.
It will save the Protestant Churches from
the pollution of party politics, and conserve
its powers of truth for the pulling down of
strongholds, free from the taint and violence
of persecution. It will trust in God, and
defend the Christian faith from Intolerance,
and allow poor humanity to indulge in the
virance, and allow poor humanity to indulge
eace on earth,
in the virtues of charity and peace
and good will to all men.
It will only oppose any “legislative
enactment” to interfere with the rights of
the members of any Church as citizens;
but it will deny the power of the Legisla
ture to annul the new Constitution, which
has made the act of religious freedom irre-
pealable. That act is now organic law.
And the Democratic conservatism will allow
no party nor power to set up a higher law,
and say that a man shall be burtliened,
when the Constitution says he shall not be
burtliened for reason of his religious opin
ion, by being excluded from eligibility to
office, or by removal from office because of
his religion or the place of his birth.
It will prevent the repudiation of the
right of-Naturalization, for which the na
tion poured out its blood and treasure, for
three years, in the second war of Indepen
dence with Great Britain.
It will defend the State right to regulate
citizenship.
It will not deny to the oppressed a home,
nor prevent the population “of these States”
still requiring hundreds of millions of immi
grants, who bring with them hundreds of
millions of money.
It will allow the poor, as well as the rich,
to come and “drink of the waters” of liber
ty freely. And it will remember that all
arc not criminals whom European despots
Tjli
call ’such, and send away from troubling
their dominion. It will take by the hands
other criminals besides John Mitchel, and
feci for others in the prison-houses and dun
geons of the Old World besides him who
once was tenant of Olmutz 1
It will jealously guard against the
Foreign influence which is insidiously sent
from Exeter Ilall in Old England to Wil
liams’ Hall in New England, to invade
America in the name of an- “American”
party; and it will watch the oppressor, not
the oppressed, abroad, as did “Washington,
•Jefferson, Madison and Jackson!”
It will defend the freedom and indepen
dence of the elective franchise against the
conspiracy which would bind voters by test
oaths to reject men of a particular religious
faith, marked for proscription ; and which
would not leave suffrage as free to elect as to
reject those whom the constitution and the
laws have made eligible to office.
It will especially guard the office of Go
vernor from the avowed intent to wield the
appointing power so as not to obey the limi
tations of qualification for office, fixedby the
constitution, but to obey rules of appoint-
'ble am]
ment established by an irresponsib
unauthorized Secret Oligarchy, formed to
set up the Higher Law of its own proscrip
ad selfisl
tion for its own, exclusive, an
ends.
It will see that the oath itself of the Gov
ernor's office is not prevented by sectarian
bigotry to set up a religious test as a qual
ification for office.
It will defend the General Government
from the consolidation which would estab
lish itself on what is called the independence
of Congress.
It will defend public policy from the faith
of the American system, Harbors, Rivers,
and Pacific Rail-roads, and Protective Tar
iffs and Internal Improvements by the Gen
eral Government, now again advanced by a
Winchester Council of the American party.
It will defend the State against agrarian
ism, freesoilism and abolitionism, now
threatening to invade the South from North
ern and non-slaveholding Councils of Know-
Nothingism. It will defend society against
the demoralization of a Cabal sworn to prac
tice dissimulation and perfidy between man
and man. And it will defend religion
against the demons of Anti-Christ!
With perfect and abiding confidence in
the power of Truth and Democracy—of a
purified, exalted and triumphant majority
for these impregnable positions, I go home
to Accomac, and await the polls of the peo
ple. I cannot do so without thanking thous
ands, of the sections of the State through
which I have passed, for their uniform hos
pitality, kindness and respect, and without
saying that the chief gratification with
which I part from a daily intercourse with
the masses of the people, is that I have en
deavored to sow the seeds of truth only in
the popular mind, and I trust that thej r
will be fauitful of blessings to individuals,
to the State and and to the country.
I am, very truly and respectfully, your
fellow-citizen, HENRY A. WISE.
Washington City, May 10th, 1855.
To keep skippers out of Bacon in the Sum
mer.—Eat it early in the Spring.
Mr. Bright moved, in the House of Com
mons, on the 23d, that the House be inform
ed on what day a specific statement can be
made, whereby it may be ascertained pre
cisely what is the difference between the
terms offered by the Allies and the terms
offered by the Russian Government, in or
der that if the war is to be continued, what
is to be its object. He stated, by way of ex
planation, that there was considerable disa
greement as to why the war began at all,
and: there is less obscurity as to its present
object. Lord Palmerston replied that the
question was one of.such importance that
he would answer it at once. Among other
things it was demanded that the prepon
derance of Russia in the Black Sea should
henceforth be made to cease.” This demand
was acceded to by the Russian Government
as a measure to this end ; it was then de
manded, “either that the amount of the
Russian Naval force in the Black Sea should
henceforth be limited by treaty, or thal the
Block Sea should be declared entirely i.cu-
tral .ground, and all the ships of war of all
countries be excluded from it, so that hence
forth it should be a sea for commerce only.”
The Russian Plenipotentiary required forty-
eight hours for consideration, and at the ex
piration of that time, absolutely refused to
accept either of the alternatives, and Russia
making no counter proposition, the Con
ferenceia4journedj_£«iedie.
Ke W York Know No thing Convention.
The N. Y. Times has a correspondent at
Syracuse who professes to give the proceed
ings of the Know Nothing Convention.—
Erastus Brooks was in the Chair. The
Convention had expelled one member for
uttering anti-slavery sentiments.
Removal of Fabens—Secretary Guthrie.
Fabens, the Commercial Agent at San

Th»-VVeatlier and Crops.
leather continues dry, though not
;Bout occasional showers. The crops,
generally speaking, are doing well. The
prospect is good for incomparably the larg
est wheat crop ever raised in this part of
the country, N<
ever before was there such
a breadth of land put down in wheat, and
never before did the yield per acre promise
to be any thing like as great as it does now.
We have heard of the appearance, in two or
three neighborhoods, of a white mould on
the stalks and blades of the plant, which
caused it to fall, and which, as far as it pre
vails, will prove injurious, if not destruc-
' ‘ h * - * ' '
tive. We have also heard that the fly has
been seen and is at work in some parts of
Robertson co. But as a general thing, we
repeat, there is every prospect of an unpre
cedented wheat crop. The rye is also fine.
The oats are not so promising as they were
this time last year, but last year’s crop was
an extraordinary one. The corn in some
places looks a little yellow from the slight
frosts last week, but the stand, thus far, is
excellent, and, with a favorable season, we
shall have the largest corn crop ever before
made in tills quarter of the State. This
will bo owing, in great part, to deeper
ploughing and better tillage than have here
tofore characterized the labors of our far
mers. “The oldest inhabitant” never saw
our corn fields in such excellent tilth as
they are now! The benefits of last year’s
experience, though it was a severe lesson,
ill ' *
will ultimately more than counterbalance
all the losses sustained from the effects of
the drought, which, indeed, might have been
averted to a great extent by deep ploughing
and a more thorough pulverization of the
soil. These things are now being attended
to, and will every year command more and
more of the attention of our Agriculturists.
A greatly improved system of tillage in this
part of the country will date from the short
crops of 1854, as will.also a more sensible
and economical systom of stock-feeding in
winter than has hitherto been practised
among us.—Nashville Banner. 14th inst.
A Sign.—It is significant of the secret in
stincts and real tendency of Know-Nothing-
ism, that the only avowed anti-slavery paper
in the State, was the first paper in Virginia
to espouse the interests of the Know-Noth
ing party. We refer to the Wheeling
Times d: Gazette. This journal surpasses
the Whig in the rapid intensity of its Know
Nothing zeal, the Washington Organ in
shameless mendacity, and the New York
Tribune in its hatred of slavery. It was the
first paper in the State to hoist the black
flag of the secret conspiracy, and it is the
most energetic in support of Flournoy,
Beale and Patton.
Further from Califirnia.
New York, May 1G.—The steamer North
ern Light arrived here this morning at 11
o’clock with 3G0 passengers and 8278000 in
treasure. Owing to the general distrust of
the banking houses, the passengers bring a
large amount of specie.
The Purser reports that the intelligence
from the interior of Nicaragua is that no
further fighting has taken place. The Gov
ernment party had retreated from Leon,
finding the army of the Revolutionists too
strong, and were fortifying Grenada. [This
conflicts with the news received via New
Orleans. |
The Nicaragua Expedition under Walker,
before reported, was to have left San Fran
cisco about the time the steamer sailed. It
embraces about one hundred men, including
Acullus Reuen, Capt. Hornsby, and other
well known individuals. The brig Vesta
was chartered to convey them down as em
igrants.
The steamer Cortez arrived at San Fran
cisco on the 22d.
The recently discovered gold mines at
Sand Hill, Yula county, are reported to be
yielding an average of 850 per day to each
man.
It is said that the planting of wheat and
other grain in the agricultural districts of
the State has been much larger than any
previous year. This, too, with California
Hour at $6.
Outside efforts to get up another trial for
the election of a U. S. Senator were vigor
ously being made, but the chances were
very slim. According to the Alta, under a
strict construction of the law, in relation to
elections, it appears to doubt if Mr. Gwin is
entitled to a seat in the Senate.
A clause of the Constitution declares that
a plurality of votes given at any election
shall constitute a choice, where it is not
otherwise directed in the constitution, and
Mr. Gwin having received a plurality of 7
votes over Mr. Edwards on the first ballot,
in joint convention, it is contended that he
was constitutionally elected.
Tow hundred and sixty four ejectment
suits have been commenced at San Fran
cisco, in view of the expiration of the statue
of limitations.
Boston, May 15.—A ten mile foot race
came off to-day between Grindell of New
York and Stetson of Boston, and was decided
in favor of Grindell. Time 57m. 22s.
Hon. Geo. M. Dallas appeared as council
for Col. Kinney.
New York, May 1G.—The steamer Atlantic
sailed to-day for Europe. She takes out
$15,000 in specie and a large number of
passengers, amongst whom is Ex-President
Fillmore.
Philadelphia, May 15.—The anniversary
of the American Sunday School Union took
place this evening, Gov. Pollock presiding.
Addresses were delivered by the Rev. Mr.
Cutlibert, of South Carolina, and Dr. Johns,
of Baltimore. The total receipts of the
year amounted to $248,000. Balance on
hand $300.
Louisville, May 15.—There was a large
fire at Evansville to-day, destroying sixteen
stores. Loss estimated at $100,000.
Chicago, May 14.—Mr. J. W. Patterson,
of the l’arkville (Mo.) Luminary, whose
office was recently destroyed, has returned
to his former residence in this city.
St. Louis, May 12.—The Republican has
advices of the arrival of the Mackinaw Ex
press boat at Kansas, from the Rocky Moun
tains, consigned to the American Fur Com
pany. Reports the Indians very trouble
some, and determined to wage war upon the
whites.
The company was detained by them for
two or three days. The ground was cover
ed with snow three to six inches deep.
The public meeting at Leavenworth ad
journed without any remarkable proceed

The Steamer New Georgetown was
snagged in the Missouri river, six miles
from its mouth, and became a total loss.—
She was tilled with Government stores, and
is fully insured.
Washington, May 12.—Thomas S. McKoy
has been appointed United States Attorney
for the Eastern District of Louisiana, vice
E. W. Moirse resigned.
New York, May 12.—The Commissioners
for Foreign Missions met yesterday in the
Broadway Tabernacle, Hon. Theodore Fre-
linghuysen, in the chair. The Secretary
reported. Five Missionaries—Messrs. Ben
jamin, Ilume, Scuddcr, Poor and Lobdel,
have died during the year.
Since October last, twelve missionaries
and assistants have been sent out, and nine
teen missionaries and assistants arc now
under appointment.
The total receipts for nine months from
August 1, 1854, to May 1st, 1855, were
$213,083, which is $500 more than the rc-
cepts during the corresponding part of the
previous year.
Baltimore, May 12.—About ten o’clock
last night, during an alarm of fire, a riot
occurred between the Market and the Uni
ted Fire Companies, in which Thos. Kelly
was shot, receiving two or three slugs in his
body
The Bremen ship Minerva, said to be
snip
worth about $60,000 ± was condemned, and
forfeited in the U. S. District Court yesterday
morning, for bringing an excess of passen
gers from Bremen to this port.
The Richmond Enquirer says, P. S.
White, the great Temperance Missionary,
has been canvassing Virginia, electioneering
against Henry A. Wise, under the guise of
temperance. We also learn that in Mem
phis, Tenn., he used some language that
was not very acceptable to the good people
of that city. Men who come from North of
Mason and Dixon’s line to lecture us, should
be watched closely, be their designs what
they may.
Tlie. Next News from the Crimea..
, It is hot improbable that the next intelli
gence from Europe will communicate one
of two facts—either that the Allies have de
stroyed Sebastopol, or that the Russians have
* lie Alh
destroyed the Allies. The bombardment, a9
the last advices have told us, had com
menced, had been ceaselessly continued
during several days, and had made no very
palpable impression on the beleagured city.
To mount “imminent deadly breach” would
be the next movement, if things went well.
The final, contest, however it terminate,
must be a deadly one. Neither England
nor France, we suspect, would be vehement
ly grieved, could they retire from the siege
under any colorable pretext, and with
honor.
France, unquestionably, would not.—
Louis Napoleon’s own. manifesto, published
in the Honiteur the week before he visited
England, is evidently, rather a feeler than
the exposition which it professes' to be. In
reality, by showing Sebastopol to be almost
impregnable, it prepares the public mind for
of fai"
the probability of failure and retreat. It
admits that Raglan and St. Arnaud, devia
ting from the advice sent themjrom London
and Paris (“for instructions could not be
given them at such a distance,”) neglected
taking the necessary measures for occupy
ing the eastern point of tlie Crimea, so as to
cut off all Russian reinforcements ooming
by the Sea of Azoff and the Caucasus, and
allowed the enemy to maintain a line of
communication north of Sebastopol, between
the besieged city and Perekop, by which
lino reinforcements were constantly sent by
tlie Czar.
If, immediately after landing, the town
had been stormed, the result might have
been successful—for at that time Sebastopol
had a garrison of only from 15,000 to 20,000,
while the Allios could have made the attack
with 50,000 men. Napoleon’s own state
ment is as follows:
“At this period, that is to say when the
Anglo-French army arrived before Sebasto
pol, the assault might, perhaps, have been at
tempted ; but it was already a hazardous en
terprise, without sufficient artillery to silence
that of the enemy. Doubtless, nothing was
impossible to an Anglo-French army, com
posed of generals and men like those who
have given such proofs during the last six
months in the dangers, fatigues, and suffer
ings of this long siege ; but success alone
could justify so daring an attempt. The
first duty imposed by the responsibilities of
command is prudence ; and prudence pre
scribed to the commanders-in-chicf not to
attempt the assault with, at most, an army
of 50,000 men, placed on a rock, deficient
of artillery or ammunition reserves, without
being defended by intrenchments in the
rear, and with no other refuge but the
ships. It would have been risking on a
cast the fortune and fate of the expedition;
and nothing must be risked at a distance of
800 leagues from the mother country.
“Tlie coup de main which the generals
thought possible after the battle of the Al
ma having escaped them, there only remain
ed for them a regular siege according to the
rules of military art. At the very onset
the Russians took the two most efficacious
measures, very regretable for us. The first
was Prince Menscliikoff's strategic move,
who, instead of shutting himself up in Se
bastopol, marched on Simplieropol, and kept
the field and free communication with the
besieged city; the second was the energet
ic decision of sinking a portion of the men-
of-war, which rendered the enemy’s port
inaccessible to our fleets, and gave some five
or six hundred guns, with their sailors as
gunnel's, to assist in the defence of the town.
Thus, although the town already presented
a formidable row of guns, new batteries
rose as- if by enchantment, and our feeble
siege-artillery could not master the fire of
the town. From this moment it became
evident to all that Sebastopol could only be
taken after* a long struggle, with jmoerful
reinforcements, at the cost perhaps of san
guinary battles.”
The French assertion, in another part of
the Imperial manifesto, is that it does not
matter whether Sebastopol fall or not, as it
has virtually ceased to be valuable to Rus
sia, with her fleet sunk at the mouth of the
harbor, and her flag to be seen nowhere in
tlie Black Sea. Special pleading like this
is for compensation to England for the loss
of 30,000 men and thirty millions sterling
of expenditure, and to France for equal loss
and cost.—New York Daily Times.
Wlittt it costs to Bombard a City.
The opening of the fire of the Allies sug
gests to the N. Y. Courier and Enquirer a
calculation as to the cost of the iron balls
which have been thrown into Sevastopol by
the five hundred cannons which have vomit
ed them into what Gortschakoff calls “an
internal fire.” The accounts by the Asia,
it says, represent that each of these guns
fired one hundred and twenty rounds a day,
which gives a total for the five hundred of
sixty thousand rounds. This fire had been
continued for thirteen days, making an ag
gregate of seven hundred and eighty thou
sand missiles rained upon the city.
The weight of the shot fired from the guns
of the Allies varies probably from nineteen
to one hundred and forty pounds, and of
the shells from fifteen to one hundred and
ten pounds—and forty-five pounds would
probably be a low estimate for an average.
This would give a daily delivery of iron to
the Russians, amounting to two mitlion
seven hundred thousand pounds, and a to
tal for the thirteen days of thirty-five mil
lion ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND POUNDS—the
prime cost of which, in the rough, at the
average price of pig iron in England for the
last year, was not less than three hundred
and thirteen thousand three ^mndred and
eighty dollars. This is, of course, without
any regard to the enormous cost of trans
portation to the Crimea.
If the cannon halls fired from the Allied
lines during the thirteen days, were rolled
into rail bars weighing sixty pounds to the
yard, tlie bars would extend three hundred
and thirty two miles ; or if laid as a rail
road would sufficefor asingle traekroad from
New York to Albany, or from Savannah to
Augusta, with all the necessary turn-outs.
The charge of powder for each gun would
probably average about six pounds, which
would show an expenditure for the thirteen
days, of four million six hundred and eighty
thousand pounds of powder. Such powder
is worth here eighteen cents a pound, but
in England would not, probably, cost more
than fifteen cents, at which price the pow
der cost seven hundred & two thousand dol
lars.
Add together the $313,380 expended in
iron balls, and the $702,000 expended in
powder, and we have the enormous sum of
$1,015,380 shot away by the Allies in the
space of thirteen days.
The Great English Loan—Critical Af
fairs.—A letter states that the great Eng
lish loan of $16,000,000 was taken by the
Ilotschilds upon a basis which values the
consols in reality at only 80. Thirty years
anuity at par, with a premium of 14s. Gd.
upon the per cent loan, is equal to 3} per
cent, and reduces the par to 80.
The letter says that the sudden decline in
consols is only the first step in the severe
trial which the government must pass
through, and that Sir Robert Peel’s free-
trade policy is fast giving way to the neces
sity of taxation. The letter concludes:
When Sebastopol and Cronstadt are ta
ken, when St. Petersbug and Moscow are in
ruins, and when Poland is re-organized as
a nationality, the war will have just com
menced. In the meanwhile not a stone in
cither the Baltic or Black seas has been
turned, and the new loan has been given
practically at 80, cash.
End of the Quitman Expedition.—It is
stated that a meeting of the Cuban Junta,
held at # New Orleans on the 29th ult., Gen.
John A. Quitman handed in his resignation
as commander in chief of the expedition
which has so long organized against Cu
ba. All of the American officers who
held commissions in this Quitman army
have also resigned, and the Junta itself has
been formally dissolved. Thus ends the
Quitman expedition and the Cuban execu
tive council, an end which, it is alleged,
they attribute to the determined opposition
of President Pierce and his cabinet.
Stalks of Cotton, sixteen inches in length
and having several well-formed “squares,”

"S a combination qf the most efficient remedies known
. to the Medical Faculty, for the relief and cure of
those numerous complaints of the Urinary Organs, con-
lequent upon infiamation or ulceration of the Kidneys,
Bladder and Urethra. It is prepared by an experienc

Medical Faculty, aud is worthy tlie confidence of all
who may be suffering from Pain and Weakness in the
small of the Back, Stoppage and Pain in voiding Urine,
Diabetas, or Excess of Urine, Strangury, Gravel, Gleet,
' >a.&c.

RISLEY’S BUCHU is a reliable and standard popolar

THE PHILOTOKEN OR FEMALE’S FRIEND,
I S a medicine that commends itself to heads of fami
lies and females in all conditions. Unlike most of
the nostrums for the cure of all diseases, which are
forceil upon Uv notice and credulity ef the suffering,
this is a female remedy exclusively ; and one that can
be relied on for the cure and relief of miftkof the com
plaints, peculiar to f’males. It is well known to Physi
cians that much of their suffering and ill-health may
be traced to irregularity in their peculiar seasons*and
that false delicacy often deters them from seeking re
lief. The Pliilotoken is infalihle in the cure of painful
menstruation, (and consequent sterility,) and for the
immediate relief of sypathetic nervous affections,
sleepiness, anxiety, hysteria, &c. It is perfectly safe
In all cases, and is warranted to secure the approbation
and commendation of all who will exercise sufficient
confidence to give it a trial.
Full directions accompany it. Price $1 a bottle.

40“ More than 500 persons in the city of Richmond
Ya., alone testify to the remarkable cures performed by
GARTERS SPANISH MIXTURE.
The great Spring Medicine and Purifier of the Blood
is now used by liundreds of grateful patients, who
testify daily to the remarkable cures performed by the
greatest of all medicines, Carter’s Spanish Mixture.—
Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Scrofula, Eruptions on the
Skin, Liver Disease, Fevers, Ulcers, Old Sores, Affec
tions of the Kidneys, Diseases of the throat, Female
Complaints, Pains and Aching of the Bones and Joints,
are speedily put to flight by using this great and inesti
mable remedy
For all diseases of the Blood, nothing has yet been
found to compare with it. it cleanses the system of all
impurities, acts gently and efficiently on the Kidneys
ami Liver, strengthens the Digestion, gives tonoto the
Stomach, makes tlie Skin clear and healthy, and restores
the Constitution, enfeebled by diseases or broken down
by the excesses of youth, to its pristine vigor and
strength.
For the Ladies, it is incomparably better than all
ihe cosmetics ever used. A few doses of Carter’s
Spanish Mixture will remove all shallowness of com
plexion, bring the roses mantling to tho check, give
dasticity to the step, and improve the general health in
t remarkable degree, beyond all the medicines over
heard of.
A large number of certificates of remarkable cures
performed on persons residing in the city of Richmond,
Va., by the use of Carter’s Spanish Mixture, is the best
evidence that there is no humbug about it. The press,
hotel keepers, magistrates, physicians, and public men,

' v all diseases arising from indis
cretion, with plain and simple rules by which all per

qualifications, and their remedies; with colored litho
graphs, illustrating the anatomy and physiology, and
diseases of the reproductive organs of both sexes, their
structures, uses and functions. It contains many im
portant hints to those contemplating matrimony
which will overcome objections against marriage;—
none, however, should take this important step with
out first consulting its pages. It treats of all diseases
of females, whether married or single. Hints to those
who desire no more children. Strangers who require

know whether their cases are properly understood by

Dear Sir:—I received several days since, y 01 ’, r
asking my opinion of the Medical merits of tlu> o„n.° r ’
Fills. Allow me to premise, that for the last ten v,™"
I have been tortured in body and mind, by the Re ats
Indigestion. I was endowed by nature with an ad ■
able constitution, and my formidable malady has ST
superinduced by a costive habit, brought on by too rt
confinement and want of regular exercise. Never h«
ing sufficient leisure to starve out disease, even if itV
possible to do so, which I very much uoubt I w- ! ° e
il Ac ..11 +lvrx oo* n „.l ’ 1 lUQ
tlie rounds of all the most approved cures and
tives. I have tried Jn _ their turn— Lee’s, Peter™
Brandreth’s, Cook’s, Hill’s, Spencer’s Smith’s an i V.
ny other Patent Tills and Dyspepsia Drugs, whieb
come within my reach, and contrary to the common!!
expressed opinion, I must hear my humble testimony in
favor of the virtue of each and all of these Nostrum.
I am by a Box of Pills, as by a Book which is not i.f
a vicious tendency. I never bought either which I
did not think fully worth the money which it cost *
It is only necessary to add, which I do most cheerfu
lly—not only through kindness to you, butto the pub
lie also, especially that portion of it who know, bvsaii
experience, what is meant by the Vulture-like gnawinv
at the pit of the stomach, bitter taste in the mouth
flatulence, ascidity, distension of the stomach consti’
pated bowels, cold feet and acute pain in tile head
back and vicinity of tho heart—to all such. I can cor’
dially recommend the Calhoun Fills. The efficacy
this Remedical Agent, I tested for the first time i
du
ring my recent sojourn with you, and have used it !ro
quently since, and have found, experimentally, that it
subserves m my case a most excellent purpose’, particu
larlyin its effects upon the Liver, the sympathy between
which and the stomach is too intimato to require coni
ment|
□Sincerely glad to learn that you are making arrange,
ments to give more extended dissemination to your Pills
I am truly your friend and obedient servant

JJDr. E. N. Calhoun—Dear Sir. I am gratified to loam
that it is your purpose to disseminate the improved Cal
houn .Pillsmore generally than you have heretofore done,
have occasionally, when sojourning at your house use!
them when indisposed, and having found them so’miM
yetso efficaciousjin cases of derangement of tlie digestive
organs, I most cheerfully commend them and their use to
the public, and especially to gentlemen having Iargefam.
ilies. as a most excellent preventive of fixed ami perma
nent disease arising from indigestion.
Truly yours, ike., JOHN,). FLOYD,

Dr. E. N. Cai.iiou.v—Dear Sir: I am gratified to barn
thatyou have come to the conclusion to create Agencies
for tlie Calhoun Pills in different parts of tlie countrv—
is it no lessen act of justice to yourself than to the
world at large. Since the year 1846, I have been in the
habit of using your Pills individually, and as a Familly
Medicine. Observation and experience prove it an inral
uable specific for nearly all irregualritio of the Digestive
Apparatus, performing its office with little or no pain or
nausea ; it leaves the patient with a good appetite, in
creased strength and greatly improved and elevated spir
its—properly'used, it will cure Dyspepsiaand expel all of
ltsgloomy concomitants. In Chills and Fevers, and even
Bilious Fevers, I have found it equally efficient.
Trusting that you may find the world as ready to com-
pensate you as to benefit itself, the result of your skil
and labor, I am sincerely your friend, kc.,

Starkvillk, Lee Connty, October 25,1S63.
Dr. E. N. Calhoun—Dear Sir . While at Decatur, I
had as I consider, a fair opportunity of testing the Cal-
houn Pills, prepared by yourself, and I am so much
plesed with their action upon the Liver, and as a means
of breaking up Bilious predisposition, that I hope as you
are now preparing to offer them to the public, that you
will create an Agency at Starkville, that may be ena
bled at anyitime to procure them. I expect to use them
with white and black in all cases threatening attacks of a
Bilious character. I would be gratified, not only on your
own account, hut also for the benefit of the public nt
large, that you would place them in tho reach of every
person, for I feel confident that there has not yet been
offered to the public any preparation of Medicine that will
compete with your Pills as a general Family Medicine, or
a traveling companion.
Very sincerely your friend, kc.., JOHM H. POPE.
Augusta, October 29, 1853.
Dr.^EJN. CALnouN—Dear Sir This is to certify that
before I had the pleasure of meeting you, I was frequent
ly attacked by some Bilious derangement producing pros
tration, loss of appetite, Nausea and Head-nclie. From
the use of your (Calhoun) Pills, administered according
to yourinstructions, I was immediately and permanent
ly relieved. It affords me much gratification to ac
knowledge the advantage I derived from your judicious
treatment.
I remain with high esteem, your obedient servant,

entery and Diarhcka Cordial in my family, and it had
a very happy effect. One of my children has been badly
effected with disentery for about three weeks,and after
giving it several other things without seeming to do
any good, I concluded to try some of the above Cord
ial, and two doses of it has entirely cured it. I, also, re
commended it to II. H. Walls, one of my neighbors, who
was taken very severely with the Flux, and it also, had
a charming effect on him. I mGst cordially recommend
