good order.
Dr. Woods Sarsaparilla and Cherry Jjitters
will achieve this result, and should be in every

by business, profession or general course of life,
s predisposed to the very many little ailments
thi.it render life a curse, instead of a blessinsr. and
finally result, in their aggregated condition, in
the cause of Death.
The Bitters here mentioned are compounded
y a man of great skill and knowledge, from the
simples Nature presents to those who care to
find them, and which are the only reliable anti
dotes to the poison of disease. The chief ingre
dients are the universilly-beloved Sarsaparilla
and the Bark ofthe Wild Cherry Tree, with
which the red mm of the forest cures nearly
every disease ofthe internal organs. These ma
terials, though powerful in their action, are, as
common sense teaches us.

Whoever is subjee-d to the horrors of Consti

In the train of Costiveness follow dreadful local
congestions, oftentimes insanity, very frequ.ently
mani.i or hypochondria, violent headaches, palpi
tations, and other affections of the hoM"t, and
rhumatic swellings. Dr. Wood's Compound is
one of the most efficient medicines in routing
these complaints, and tlieir fountain head, that
can possibly be procured.
From being confined in close rooms and from
taking a small modicum of exercise, numerous
persons daily are made to - deplore a loss of appe
tite, painful headaches, weakness ofthe muscles,
languor, want of energy sufficient .to permit them
to seek recreation, &.c. &c. These ' persons say

FEARFUL COJX'SEQ UFJW&S '

virtue of these Hitters. For the truth of this,
the proprietor pledges his word and honor, iiT
in evidence can show lues ol" undoubted certifi
cates whicli he has received, unsolicited from all
quarters. He does not, however, ask the invalid
to swallow his certificate but his Bitters, and is
willing to stake ;dl lie holds dear on earth in
favor of their worth.
THE DYSPEPSIA.
in either a modified or severe form, will disappear
before the qualities of Dr. Wood's preparation,
and the cure may be relied on as a permanent one.
Did the Bitters-possess no other recommendation,
it would be one ofthe finest vegetable compounds
medical science can invent; but it is equal to the
complete eradication of

in every shape, and of every afiection, minor or
gigantic, of the bilitarv aparatus. Individuals
who are constitutionally bilious ought regularly
to take this mild agreeable and excellent tonic
and aperient, as it will diffuse health throughout
every fibre of t he frame, and send happiness and
love of life thrilling to the heart. Families ought
to keep it on hand.
Every medicine chest on board ship should
also be well stocked with this capital remedy,
as (XT' SCURVY cannot alllict those who take
it, or long resist its vigorous assults. All im
purities of the blood vanish before it, and the old

From the New York True Su n
The Farmer's Club met on Tuesday,
Judge Livingston in 'the chair. Mr Mcis
read a translation from the Manuel I'ojju
larie IT Agriculture, by J. A. .Schlipp,
Professor of the Royal Agricultural insti
tuteof lioherheiaii in Wurteniburg, pub
lished at Paris. It was a prifce essay
adopted by the Congiess of Germany. The
following "is an extract :
Jiarlry. A new kind has been iniro
duced from Asia and cultivated. It is
called Kampto Barley, and yields a crop
four to five times greater than any other
barley. It requires rich soil suitable for
barley, is sown in the spring as soon as the
soil is dry enough, aud ripens in ten or
eleven weeks. It is best tosow it in drills,
and not to soak the seed. It is excellent
as a green crop for cattle, and iu Asia two
crops grows in a year." it was remarket l
that barley improved buckwheat cakes,
and that it'would make excellent bread.
Mr Meigs also read from the Portuguese
an article on Silk culture. He also read
from A New System of Husbandry,"
published at Philadelphia in IT93, an ex
tract relative to Trenching "-round with
the spade.'' The author states that he
had observed near Grasirow laborers din
ing the ground and throwing into the bot
tom at a depth of three feet, the top soil
i ins top son ierments ami evaporates its
volatile spirits which penetrate through
every particle of the earth above it, and iu
tins way the land without manure will grow
five or six crops. This is confirmation of
the very important theory of Dr Underbill
of the ascent of manures.

paper on the cultivation ot wheat as prac

TO THE EDITOR. John Jackson. Esq. editor of the
Itahwav Republican, published the above certificate, aud
remarks in an editorial as follows :
The success of Dr Townsend's preparation of Salfeiparilla
appears to be of the most extraordinary character. We
publish two certificates in its behalf, one from Capt. Mc
Lean, of this town, and one from Rev. Mr White of Staten
Island. Capt McLean believes the medicine saved his life,
and Mr White seems to entertain an equally strong confi
dence in its efficacy.
SCROFULA CURED
This certificate was handed into Dr Townsend's office
this week, and conclusively proves that his Sarsaparilla has
perfect control over the most obstinate diseases of blood.
Three persons cured iu one house is unprecedented.

Dr Townsend Sir: Having for some time past been
afflicted with a pulmonary affection on my lungs, and a
continual pain in my side, owing to evening exposure in
travelling, and finding my disease to increase, with much
dIAculty of breathing and other alarming symptoms, I was
dv1--it by a clergyman, a friend of mine, to try your cele
brated Sarsaparilla. I did so, and after taking two or three
doses I found myself relieved. My appetite has been res
tored. I find myself much stronger, and hope very soon to
resume my usual duties. I have been so greatly benefitted
by your excellent medicine, 1 feel it my duty to make known
the facts for the benefit of others who may be laboring un
der the same difficulties that I have been for some time past.
Respectfully, vours.

Dr Townsend Dear Sir: I waa taken a little over a
year ago. with a severe cough and pain in my aide.' . It In
creased en ue very fast Indeed. 1 was pronounced, by phys
icians to have the quick consumption. I raised large quan
tities of bad matter, had night sweats and was sinking very
fast : my doctor said be could do nothing for me.-. 1 went
to the hospital in hope of being benefitted, but waa pro-
nounced there Incurable. ; 1 waa now greatly en stressed at
the litug and could hardly breathe. I soon became ema
ciated and expected to die; was confined to my bed and
was obliged to have watches : indeed. I cannot give yon any
description that would do justice to my case. I was sup
posed by my friends to be past rccovciy 1 had tried a great
number of remedies, and all to no purpose 1 read of somo
most extraorCinary cures performed by your medicine, and
to tell you the truth. 1 suspected there was some linmnug in
them. But I was induced to try it : I did ro. and am thank
ful that I did. I cannot say that I am entirely well, but
am so far recovered as to le about my business, aud hope
to be entirely well in few week. My cough and iain in
the side, and nightsweats. have left uie. I raised but vcry
little blood, and am fast gaining my usual strength. I felt
it a duty to give you a statement of my case to publish if
you please.

A communication was received from Dr

were to be planted at tins season

inanures w ere the best, as the gases and
salts were held by the liquid and preset veil,
whereas in the common mode of lavin on
the immure, the ammonia was wasted.0
Mr Meiga said it was a French theory
that clouds were useful not only to o-ive
us rain, but to shelter plants from the sun.
Mr Meigs said he knew fmrn his own
experience that many , plants required a
guuddeal of shade, as, for example, young
celery. I louds, according to the French
idea, were useful iu preventing the eva
poration of the ammonia from the earth.
Mr Pike said he was glad to see t.'uer
neyism introduced into New York. H
had seen a cart of manure with a cloth oer
it, as this covering saved the ammonial
If one goes to a .-table, he will perceive
ammonia enough to save a fainting lady.
Thus the gas escapes mid the manure is
wasted. He had observed in England that
the dew in the morning was frosted, and
appeared like a fall of snow. This was
better than rain which fell in the day time,
when the sun would come out and do more
hurt than the rain had done good, iW the
sun would draw up the gft seous manures','
and they would be wasted. He was satis
fied that the best mode of applying manures
was in'the liquid form', as the liquid would
contain all the gases and salts.',
Mr Meigs said that the ammonia so ne
cessary for plants, came down iu the fore
part of a shower. So, too, carbonic acid
gas so useful for plants, lies on ihe surface,
and being heavier than t lie atmosphere' wilj
not rise. He had waded through car
bonic acid up to his middle, and if he put a
candle down to the gas it w ould go out in
an instant.
Mr Pike detailed his mode of preparing
his manure by composts, and prepa1in
liquid manure. He believed that manures
both ascended and descended ; the gases
ascended, aud the salts dissolved iti'nler
descended. It was one ofthe advantages
ofliquid manures that it descended.
Judge Livingston said that it hatrbeeif.
estimated that an acre contained 8000
pounds of ammonia.

Manures. This subject was then brought
up for consideration. Mr Van Wyck
spoke of the theory of' Dr Underbill, and
explained at some length, his ideas of the
operations of manures.
Mr Pike of Long Island, said that he'
hatl no doubt that manures b'dtli ascended
and descended. Manures were of two
kintls gaseous, and salt; the former as
cended, and the lattelr descended. Dr
Underbill's th eory, is that all manures,
through the action of the sun's rays, as
cends by-capillary attraction, except w hen
washed down by 'the mechanical action of
the rains. Mr Pike said he thought it
would be of more consequence to discuss
the availability of matKjres. The most im
portant quesfiou'wiis,"' what manures was
best adopted to the soil. For his part, his
