The Homestead. ITS CONSTITUTION A LIT Y. REAFFIRMED BY THE 8UPREME COURT OK NORTH CAROLINA AND DECLARED NOT TO CONFLICT WITH THE U. S. SUPREME OOURT'8 DECISION IN THE GEORGIA CASE. .p??&OGiK .1 %A From this ?fpIiiu?tlon ft will bo seen that the deoision!of tin Supreme Cnurt of the United States iu the Georgia case conflicts in nbthiog with our own dcci sions;-but they are iu exact Conformity. The Georgia case decidos t points, first that in that particular case, the phmtifl bad obtained a judgement on his debts, before the homestead law? were passed, and thit^In Georgia, the judgment wbs a lien upon U?o debtor's property, w hieb ho had 'at its rendition; and that there by the planttff had a vested right oj property, which could uot be destroyed or taken from ono person and given to another. Wo distinctly conceded this principal in Hill Kessler, and wo cx pressly decided it in McKcathos vs Terry. There- is then no conflict upon this first point. Tb,cro if, however, this difference between tho laws of Georgia as stated in the Georgia case, and t h law in North Carolina; a judgment in North Carolina prior to the Code hits novcr. been bold to bo such a lion upon property as to create rested rigid ol property in the plaintiff or to divest tin property out of the defendant, or to in vest itiu tho officer. The only force ol tho lien has been to prevent the debtoi from selling it. It requires not only n judgment but a levy to change the projyerty, Dodd vs. Adams, 60 N C. II.. 194, Norton vs. McCall, Id. lf>9. The sccr.nd point decided in Gunn vs. Larry is, that the Georgia homestead laws impair the obligation' of contracts. We concluded in Hill vs Kessler; that any law which had that cflcct was void We said; "Wo concccdc.d * that if tins exemption impcirs tho obligation of contracts, cither expressly or by impli cation, it is against the Constitution b'.| the United States, and therefore void * * * * . Wc concede also that a cont ac must be understood with reference to existing law? foi sts oofofco?u:ont.v And we said, also, that the State cannot abolish or injuriously changenhe remedy It is not the decision of tho U. S. Su prome Court, and our decisions that are in convict, but it is the Georgia home stead laws and NortU Carolina homestead laws that arc unlike as has been already shown. The purpose of our legislation being to secure iti*citizens the ^necessities and comforts" eflife; and this having been decided to be a legitimate 'purpose and paramount to all debts, let us sec iu what condition our. people would ?bc if our homestead laws are declared to be void. Our homestead and personal property exemption act'repeals nil other laws up j on the subject. Therefore our debtor olass is to be left without any exemption whatever ? Not oven a bed or ? crust 1 Nor is there I any reliof lu baukruptoy ; beoauso a larga portion ol the debtors have dot the means to pay cxpensos, nor ore their dobts large enough to bring them under tho bankrupt law. For the Boys. Henry Ward Beocber has written this: I never saw anybody do anything that I did not watch him and see how he did ? it, for there is no telling but that some time I tpight have to do it myself. \ Was going across a prairie; my hoiic be gan to limp. Luckily, I came across a black smith's shop, but the smith wus not at home. '. I asked the woman of thchmsr if she .would allow mo to start the fire and make' the shoo. She said I might if I knew how. Sol started the fire and heated the shoe red hot, nml turned it to fit nay horse's foot, and purod the hoof, and turned the ' points of the nails out cunningly, as I had sccu tho black smith do, so that in driving into tho hoofdmy should uot gq into the quick and shod the horse. At the next place I went to, I went straight to a saith, and told him to put tho 6hoe ou proper ly. He looked at tho horse's foot and paid me the greatest compliment I ever received in my life. He told mo if 1 pnt ou that shoe 1 had better follow blaoksmittiing all my life. Now, I nev er should hare known hour to do this i( I bad not looked on aud seen others do A burly individual the other day rusaed into the sanctum ol the Hutu bold (Nerada) llegister, and pulling an enormous iushpoter, inquired anxiously for the editor, "WUk> great presence of mind," aays tho fearless quill-driver, "which always characterizes us when in the presence of danger, we suddculy aroso, knocked the intruder down, seiz ed him by tho collar and nether extre mitleW^Mw. him into the street.

Fever and Ague, from which mankind suffer over a largo part of the globe, is the consequence of a diseased uction in the system, induced by the poisonous miasm of vegetable decay. This exhalation is ovolvcd by the action of sol?J heat ou wet soil, and rises with the watery vapor fro'n it. While the sun is below the hor*?on this vapor lingers near the earth's sur face, and the virus is taken with it through tho lungs into the blood. There it acts as an irritating poison on tho internal viscera ami excreting organs of the body. The liver becomes torpid and falls to secrete not only this virus, but also the bile from the blood. Both the virus and tho bile accumulate in tho circulation, and produce violent constitu tional disorder. Tho spleen, the kidneys, and tho stomach sympathize with the liver, and becomo disordered also. Finally, the instinct of our or ganism, as if in an attempt to expel the noxious Infusion, concentrates the whole blood of the body in.the internal excretories to force ,them to ca6t it out. ? Tho blood leaves the surface, and rushes to tho central organs with eongestive violence. This Is the CHILL. Hut in this ellort it fails. Then tho Fever follows, in which the blood leaves the cen tral 'organs and rushes to the surfaco, as if in another effort to expel the irritating poison through . that other great excretory ? tho skin. In uus also it fails, and tho system abandons the attempt exhausted, and waits for the recovery of strength to repeat the hopcloss eirort another day. Thcso aro tho fits or paroxysms of Fbver and Ague. Such constitutional disorder will of course under mine tho health if it is not removed. Wo have labored to find, and havo found, an antidote,* Ayer's Ague Cure, which 'neutralizes this malarious poison in the blood, and stimulates the liver to expel it from the body. As it should, so it docs cure thin afflicting disorder with perfect certainty. And it does more, or rather does what is of more service to those sub ject to this infei tion. If taken in season it expels it from the system as it is absorbed, and thus keeps those who uso it free from its attacks; keeps the system in health although exposed to the disease. Consequently it not only cures, but protects from, the great variety of affections which are induced by this malignant influence, such as Remittent fever, Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious Headache, Bilious Fevers, Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Blindness, Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpita tions, Painful Affections of tltc Spleen, Hysterics, Colic, Paralysis, and Painful Affections" of tho Stomach nna Bowels, all of which, when arising from this nuse, will be found to assume more or less tho intermittent type This " Aque Cure " removes the cause of these derangements, and cures tho disease. This it accomplishes by stimulating the excre tories to expel the* virus from the system; and these organs by degrees become hnhitcd to do this their clSce of their own accord. Hence arises what we term acclimatation. Time may accomplish the same end, but often life is r.ot long enough, or is sacrificed in the attempt, while this " Aovk Cvrb " does it at once, and with safety. We have great reason to believe this is a surer as well as safer remedy for tbe whole class of diseases which arc caused by the miasmatic infection, than any other which has been discovered i< and it has still another important advantage to the public, which is, that it is cheap as well as good. ritEr.vunn nr DR.
