Jefferson said in his day that the s-curril
Jityof the Press drove nearly all -he. best
men of the country from e6nterig or re
maining in public life. The degree of*
degeneracy of the Political Press since the
days of Mr. Jefferson it would be difficult
to estimate. Where is the fault ? What is
the source of the evil? Is it in the Prebs
itself? Is it the character of its couduc
tors? Or is it in an unhealthy lone of
public' - sentiments'? That the vices
are to h traced to all these causes of cot

To those Candid Men
W HO honestly doubt the truth of lie Bran
drethian Systeinj we would 'entreat'
them to ponder well upou the following facts:
The Food taken into the stomach is convert
ed into blood, which vital stream, flowing
through all. the rainifications of the system, not
only'impoarts strength and continues life, bnt
actually creates, forms, and builds up, each aind
every part of the animal machine. If the blood,
therefore, is pure and healthy, the body. which,
is formed from, 'and supported by the blood,
cannot be diseased. Butif there be in any part
ofthe body any effeetion, such as bile, or ulcer,
even a bruise, the blood circulating through
that part, takes up impure matters from the ro
cal affection. and carries it into the general sys
tem. This is the cause often of sudden death
to persons of frli habit, afflicted with biles, and
use no medicine; the matter gets into the cir
culating system, and chokes up the fine blood
vessels which supply the brain with vitality,
and life ceases, as if bereft by lightning. Now
this can be remedied-the Brandreth Pills, will,
if used at these times, take out all impure mat
ters from the circulation, and save the general
health, at the same time they are curing the lI
cal affection. Oh! how important it is to man
kind, that this subject be well comprehended;
it % ould save many from tedious times of sick
ness, and ofien secure their services to their
friends, when otherwise the tomb would have
its victim.
