Iyer's Cherry Pectoral, ,
For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs, *
saoh aa Coughs, Cold*, Whooping J
Cough, Bronohitis, Asthma,
and Consumption.
Probably never before in the whole history of
ledicine, has any thing won so widely ana bo _
eeply upon the confldenco of mankind, as this
xcellent remedy for pulmonary complaints,
hrough a long scries of years, and among most
f the races of men it has risen higher and higher
i their estimation, as it has become better known.
^ uniform character amd power to cure the va*
nna nffVvHnn<j nt thfi liincR and throat, hare
mde it known as a reliable protector against
lem. While adapted to milder formB of disease
id to voung children, it is at the same time the
iost effectual remedy that can be given for incip- 1
nt consumption, and tho dangerous affections '
r tho throat and lungs. As a provision against t
idden attacks of Croupt it should be kept oa
md in every family, and Indeed as all are some- ai
mes subject to colds and coughs, all should bo ! la
rovided with this antidote for them.
Although settled Consumption is thought inirablc,
still great numbers of capes where th^ 1S
isease seemed settled, liavo been completely C
ired, and the patient restored to sound health (i,
y tho Cherry Pectoral. So complete is its r
lastery over the disorders of the Lungs and 10
hroat that the most obstinate of them yield to it , hi
'hen nothing else could reach them, under tho "\i
Kerry Perioral they subside and disappear. { ,
Singers and Publio Speakers lind great ai
rotection from it ' I C:i
Asthma is always relieved and often wholly I a
ired by it
Bronchitis is generally cured by taking tha j.
herry Perioral in small and frequent dotes. | of
So generally are its virtues known, that we i ],

poisons.
As its name Implies, it does Cure, and does not !
il. Containing neither Arsenic, Quinine, Lis* I
jth, Zinc, nor any oUier mineral or poitouous j
bstance whatever, it in noxvlse injures any pa- ri,

GOSSIP ABOUT DISRAELT. ,
The London correspondent of the BosA
.1 .42
tun Auveruuer wriica :
You must sit near Mr. Disraeli before
you discover that he is growing old.
At a iittle distance he has the appiearanceof
middle age; and in his oratory
he retains the pecnliaries of hid youth.
I sat in a low .gallery opposite to him the
Dthcr night, and for an hour- watched
liis method and manner. Above all
thiugs I admire the art of his tailor.
Soever was there a finar triumph tham in
Mr. Disraeli's frock coat The fit is perfect,
but it is not the. "fit." There is a
Inish and a poetry about his clothes
vhich escape definition. And, oh, the
jarelessness of other men! There's Mr.
Foster just opposite, with, a rough, cut,vay
.coat, bob-tailed and badly made;
coking like a rough son of the woods,
rhere's Mr. Gladstone, even, dressed
Evith a carelessness that wotila distress
;he artist's heart. But in the way of
lress we have had nothing for. years
like the spectacle .of. a good, pious dissenter,
a man of sixty, who spoke in the
House of Commons last week while
wearing a scarlet, uniform. Never in
;he history of masquerades was there
luch a curious sight; The honorable
;entleman was stout, and the e6at?was
ilternately loose and tight. Long, ugly
idges cressed his breast His arms
were as if clothed In a red night-shirt,
ind the ludicrous expression of his face
made the picture complete. Returning
to the tor? leader, I may remark that
tils voice is clearer than it was, and the
ifffectations in his nccentare notsoapparent.
His peculiarity is his restlessness
is to his hands. Ordinarily this is a
mark of nervousness, but Mr. Disraeli,
)ne would think, is not afflicted by misery
of that description. However that
ruay be, he cannot keep his hands in
reposition for two minutes together.
He puts tbem on the box which is on
the table before him; he shuts them;
>pens them; places one in his coat pocket
behind; puts two there; takes out his
liandkerchief and puts it in again; fold&
tiis hands; opens them; puts his fingers
merely on a table; boldly sticks his
thumbs under his aim-pita and tosses
the collar of his coat bacK; again drops
ihem at his side ? such are some
>f the movements he keep3 up while delivering
one of his set orations. Another
peculiarity I will jot down for the
benefit of the curious in orator's distresses
: I have observed that wheu he
Is about to say something satirical, one
}f those witty phrases that restiu the
memory, and which are certainly not
hVm /ipnotupnonf thf> moment, he slisrhtlv
jpens his legs and in a scarcely perceptible
fashion bows down his body. AS
the cheers breakout, Jlis figure seems
juiokcned. If you axe behind him you
notice a change immediately. His accustomed
confidence d.vJopsinto auJacity,
and for a minute or two he appears
to ruJe his audience.

The Case of Senator Vance.?The
New York Star says:
The exclusion of Senator Vance from
the Senate by the refusal, thus far, to
remove his political disabilities, is an3ther
in the endless list of outrages for
ivhich the Republican party has become
infamous. Congress prefers to trust the
sneaks who hadn't the courage to fight
upon either side, rather than those men
who, having an honest opinion, dared
to draw sword in defence of it. The
best citizens in the South, and the most
to be trusted in any oilicial position, are
tho?e who were in me i,omcu?uiw i
army. Senator Vance was opposed to
the disruption of the Union, and gavel
his voic* and energies against it. But
his State having seceded, he followed
its fortunes. Since the close of the war,
he has been active in restoring order to
the-State and bringing about a better
state <>f feeling between the discordant
elements. He Mas fhfrly elected, and
by a hearty vote; and his rejection by
the Senate, if persisted in, should be
carefully noted. The strength of the
Republican party is rapidly waning, and
each fresh abuse of power swells the
ranks of the Democratic party, and
enhances the latter'a prospects of success

Every day demonstrates more clearly
that liver complaint, in all its distressing

I Bitters. Their action brings it back
j from a state of rebellion into perfect harmony
with the laws of health.. If there
is costfveness, it disappears; if there is
j side-ache or back-acne, it ceases; if the
I skin and the whites of the eyes are ting!
ed with superfluous bile, they recover
their natural hue; if the appetite is
gone, it returns; if the digestion is impaired,
it is restored; in brief, whatever
the simptoms of tho complaint may be,
and whatever the phase it has assumed,
a cure is ccrtain. Such are the uniform
effects of this preperation where billious
disease has been already developed; but
iu cases where there is merely a constitutional
tendency to liver complaint, it
may be prevented throughout life by
the regular use, in small quantities, of
this palatable antidote. These are prov:
en facts, and should be seriously pondered?or,
rather, they should qe promptly
