He said he had come 1 to the conclusion that it was impos sible to adapt labor-saving machine- ( ry to colored labor.

Tho reputation this ex cellent medicine enjoys, .is derived from its cures, many of which are truly marvellous. Inveterate cases of Scrofulous dis ease, where tho system seemed saturated with corruption, have bect^ purified and cured by it^ Scrofulous affections and disorders,which were ag gravated by tho scrofu lous contamination until they were paini\illy afflicting, have been radically cured in such great numbers in almost every sec tion of the country, that the public scarcely need to bo informed of Its virtues or uses. Scrofulous poison is one of the most destruc tive enemies of our race. Often, thj* unseen and nnfelt tenant of the organism undermines the con stitution, and invites tne attack of enfeebling or fa tal dise,ise3, without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again, it seems to breed infection throughout the body, and then, on sothe favorable occasion, rapidly develop into one or other of its hideous forms, cither on the surface or among the vitals. In the latter, tubercles muy be suddenly deposited in the lungs or heart, or tumors formed in the liver, or it 6hows its presenco by eruptions nr frtnl nVprntionfl on some Dart of the body. Hence the occasional use of a bottle of this Sarsaparilla is advisable, even when no active symptoms of disease appear. Fersons af flicted with the following complaints generally And immediate relief, and, at length, euro, by the use of this SA RSAl'A It ILL A: St. Antho ny's Fire, Rose or Erysipelas, Tetter, Salt 11 hewn, Scald Head, Ringworm, Sore Eyes, Bore Ears, and other eruptions or visible forms of Scrofulous disease. Also In the more con coaled forms, as dyspepsia, Dropsy, Heart Disease, Fits, Epilepsy, Neuralgia, and the various Ulcerous affections of the mnsculai. and nervous systems. Syphilis or Venereal and Mercurial Dis eases are cured by it, though a long timo is re quired for subdning the?c oustinnte maladies by any medicine. But long-continued use of this medicine will cure the complaint. Loucorrhaea or Whites^ Uterine Ulceratlrms, and Female Diseases, are commonly soon relieved and ulti mately cured by its purifying and invigorating effect. Minute directions for each case are found hi our Almanac, supplied gratis. Rheumatism and Gout, when caused by accumulations of ex traneous matters in the blood, yield quickly to It, as also Liver Complaints, Torpidity, Conges tion. or Inflammation of the Liver, and Jaun dice, when arising, as they often do, from (he rankling poisons in the blood. This 8ARSA PAJtlLLA is a great Restorer for the strength and vigor of the system. Those who are Lan guid and Listless, Despondent, Sleepless, and troubled with Kervous Apprehensions or Fears, or any of the affections symptomatic of Weakness, will find immediate relief and con vincing evidence of its restorative power upoq PREPARED RJ Pr.

I consented, end on the 17th ot February'Iast, he operated upon my eyes, and on the 7th day afterwards I was able to distinguish objects at a dis' tance, and my sight is still improving, so much so, that I find no difficulty in walking about wherever I desire.
