THK TROPIIIKTORS have Fpcnt much time in blink ing tlii3 preparation of Sarsaparilla to its present state of perfection : aud the experience ot fourteen years has furnished them the mott ample opportunity to study, in their various forms, the diseases for which it is recom mended, sud to adapt it exactly to their relief and cure. Patients ,who wish a really good Medicine are iuvited to fjive it a trial, and satisfy themselves of its superiority, and the invaluable property it possesses of arresting aud curing disease. The bottle has been enlarged to hold oue quart, and in its present improved form may safely claim to be the best and cheapest medicine of the age. Its pro gress to the fame it has attained may be traced by a louj: line of facts and cures, that stand as landmarks and bea cons for the invalid, pointing the way to the havea of health, and what it has already douo for the thousands who have used it. it is capable of doing'for the millions still suffering aud struggling with disease.

The following is n extract of a letter received frm Rev Vm. Oaluoba. Berkshire. Vt., Oct. 22. 1S4S. Messrs Sands: I ha ve been afflicted with a severe pain in my side, occasioned by a diseased liver, for the last 20 years, suffering at times what language cannot convey; but since taking your Sarsaparilla 1 have been greatly re lieved, so much so that I have Wen able to attend to my business, and preach occasionally, for the last 18 months. I wholly discarded all other medicine, and tloroughly tried the Sarsaparilla, which I can recommend in truth aud sincerity to all those who arein any wayafflicted with any species of scrofulous complaints. There have been some remarkable cures effected by its use in this vicinity. Mrs I. Shaw, by the use of six bottles, was restored to bet ter health thau she had before enjoyed for ten years; and Mr W. Stevens, who had been severely afflicted with erysipelas, was entirely cured by the use of a few bottles. Yours truly, WM. GALUSHA. SCROFULOUS AFFECTION OF THE EYES. South Kingston. R. L, Oet 11, 1847. Messrs Sands : Oentlemen My little daughter. bcn one year old. was attacked with a scrofulous humor on ber face, which soon after extended into her eyes, causing almost total blindness in one of them, and disfiguring her whole face. I employed two physicians to attend her. wb exhausted their utmost skill to give her relief, but it all proved useless, and finally one of them remarked to me that he had kown of some striking cures effected by Sands' Sarsaparilla. and advised me to try it. J obtained one bottle which she commenced using, and before it was all used up it had effected an entire cure. It is now over four years sinec sbe was cured, and there has been o re appearance of the disease, and we are satisfied that it is a perfect cure. It gives me great pteasure to add that I can reco.nu.eud it to every sufferer from ny1llCI?imifl51nt Yours respectfully. OLO. ROBINSON. Prepared and sold, wholesale and retail- by A. B. fc SANDS.

BARRY'S T li icop n K R ou s, OR MEDICATED COMPOUND. Infallible for renewing, invigorating, and beautifying the Hair, removing Scurf, Dandruif", and all affections of the Scalp, and curing Erup tions on the skin, diseases of the Glands, Mus cles, and Integuments, and relieving stings, cuts, bruises, sprains, &c. V ith this preparation "there is no such word as fail." The first jour nals in America, medical men of the highest eminence, prominent citizens of all professions, and ladies who have used it for years in their dressing rooms aud nurseries, admit with one accord, that, for imparting vigor, gloss, luxur- 1 1 crposition cf Trovidence, iance, and curl to the hair, eradicating scurf and? ' , . . , . , dandruff, healing wounds, curing contusions, sectional agitations vrhtch 1 sprains, &c., and relieving diseases of tbe skin, the ulands, and the muscles, it has no equal among the multitude of compounds advertised in the public prints, or used in private practice. In cheapness as well as efficacy, Barry's Trico pherous is unrivalled. The immense cash sales of the article, have enabled the inventor to supply it at retail at twenty-five cents per bottle, which is from fifty to one hundred per cent, less than the price of any other preparation now in use. The scientific treatise on the hair and skin (em bracing valuable directons for the culture ana preservation of Nature's choicest ornament,) in which each bottle is enclosed is alone worth the nmnev. The affinity between the membranes whicbJ snce for the good of the country constitute the skin, and the hair which draws its sustenance from this triple envelope, is very close. All diseases of the hair originate in tbi skin of the head. If the pores of the scalp are closed, or if the blood and other fluids do not circulate freely through the small vessels which feed the roots with meisttfre and impart life to the fibres, the result is scurf, dandruff shedding of the hair, grayness, ana narsnness onnr jrga ments, and entire baldness, as the case may be. Stimulate the skin to healthfot action with the Tricopherous, and the torpid vesseh, recovering thpir activity, will annihilate the disease. In all affections of the skin, and of the substrata of muscles and integuments the process and the effect are the same. Jt is rpon the skin, the muscular fibre, and the glands, that tbe Trico pherous has- it specific action, and in all affections and injuriesuf these organs; it is a sovereign remedy.. - :-s fjt3- Sold in large Bottles.'

THE LATE PRESIDENT. The death of Fresident Taylor has been.re tieived with astonishment every where, because s sudden and unexpected. He joined in the ceremonies of the fourth of July, and waa slight ly indisposed on the 5th, when he was attacked with cholera morbus, followed by intermittent fever. Of these symptoms he was only relieved by death. His physicians did not make known tbe danger of his situation, until the morning of the day of his death, hoping a favorable change. He died on the night of the 9th, at 35 minutes past 10 o'clock; after an illness cf only five days, and that illness not made public until within a day or two of his death. He leaves behind a wife and several children. (His wife was very much opposed to his being a candidate for the Presi dency, and prayed that he might not be elected ; aa doubt anticipating what hundreds of others anticipated, that the change of mode of life, and the excitement and turmoil of politics, would prove fatal in his case, as it had in Gen. Harri son's. Cholera morbus is often times the pecu liar offspring of the passions; and where it is brought on by excitement and fatigue, it is almost certain to prove fatal, unless the excitement can be allayed. Of course it was impossible to allay it in the case of the President ; surrounded as he was by politicians of all sorts, and knowing as he did, the agitated state of feeling in both Houses of Congress and the country.) The last words uttered by the President are given in different versions. One version we gave last Saturday, in the proceedings of the meeting held in Fayetteville. We see that Vice Fresi dent Fillmore gives another version, to-wit : ; " I have always done my duty. I am ready. Mv only regret is for the friends I leave behind me." As soon as the Fresident expired, the bell of the State Department was rung, followed by all the bells of the city, and the Cabinet Ministers, who were all present at the Executive mansion, itt;rsdiately waited.on Vice President Fillmore, and announced the fact, and tendered their resig nations. Mr Fillmore requested them to remain at their posts until he should select others to relieve them. So that it appears in government affairs, there is very little ceremony used about filling places. As it is in the ranks of the army, the living march steadily onBover the corpses of the dead to fill the gap which grape and canister have made, and the living body which encompasses "great ness" sinks to the level of "the dust of the earth' as soon as its vitality has lied. Mr Hilliard, in his eulogy, alluded to the re mark of a French orator, who, when requested to pronounce an oration over the dead body of a king, laid his hand upon the head of the monarch and said " There is nothing great but God." Gen. Taylor was born in Orange county, Vir ginia, on 21th September, 1781, and was there fore GG years of age. His last appearance in pnb lic was on the 4th of July, at the Washington Monument ; and his last public act was to affix hi signature to the Convention recently conclud ed between the United States and Great Britain. He has left a wife (the lirst and only one), two daughters and a son. The daughters married to Dr Wood, surgeon of the army, and toMaj. Bliss. He entered the army as a Lieutenant on the 3d of May, 1S03, and continued in it without inter ruption to near the time of his taking his eeat as President. (We hope it will be the last time that the American people will show so little re gard for a "fitness of things" as to elect an officer of the army to the office of Chief Magistrate of the country.) It will he seen by the extracts which we take from the eulogies spoken in Congress, that the death of the President is looked upon as an in tending to quiet the threaten the peace of the cotmtry, burying all animosities in the grave of the hero-Fresident. Mr Webster alluded to it in bis remarks, by saying that great as was-J the loss, if the blessings of quiet and good feeling were restored to the country, the price was not too great; and if the spirit of the departed Pre sident could look down and see such a result, he would be happy that his death had secured more for his country than he could have hoped to do had he lived ! MrWinthrop expressed the idea that the death of the President was an interposition of Provi- Mr Hilliard caught at the idea and reiterated it! These are the- days of strange eventful scenes," and we venture to say, that never be fore did the leaders of a political party declare that the death of their chief was the salvation of their country. Gen. Harrison was President .just one month. Geh. Taylor one year, four months, and y days. Geii, II. died.4tb of April,- Gen. Taylor is the second President who died in office, and the first nho so died during the session of Con gress. "When President Harrison died, and Mr Tyler succeeded to the Presidency, . Hon. Saml. L. Southard, of New Jersey, was President pro tern, of the Senate, and succeeded to the Vice Presidency ; but he died soon, and Hon. W. P. Mangum was . elected," and received the pay of Vice President for: the time he served' , At the death of Gen. Taylor, Mr Atchison of Missouri, was President pro tern., but the Senate went into an election and unanimously elected Mr King ot Alabama, who will receive pay as Senator and as Vice President, Mr Atchison still acting as Pre sident pro ten in the absence of Mr King. The remains of President Taylor were open to public view at the mansion on Friday, during which large crowds of citizens flocked to see the corpse. THIRTY-FIRST CONGRESS, FIRST SESSION. Wednesday. July 10. In the Senate, a message was received from Mr Fillmore, the Vice President, stating that in con sequence of the death of the President, he should no longer occupy the chair of Vice Fresident and President of the Senate, and they could at their pleasure proceed to the election of an officer to preside. Another message was received from Mr Fill more, proposing to take the oath of office before the two houses at 12 o'clock. A joint committee was then appointed from each House to wait on the new President aad conduct him to the hall of the House. This was done in a short time, and the Senate assembled in the Hall of the House, where the Chief Jus tice of the U. S. District Court of the District ol Columbia, administered to him the oath to pro tect and defend the Constitution cf the Ui.ited States. The Senate then retired to their own chamber; the President retired, and in each House eulogies were delivered on the life and character of the late President. In the Senate, by Messrs Web ster, Downs, Cass. Pearce, King, and Berrien. In the House, by Messrs Conrad, Winthrop, Ba ker, Bayly, Hilliard, King of N. York, Mcl.ane, and Marshall. Mr Downs closed by saying : "Let us, then, bury in the tambof our de parted President all sectional feeling and divisions, and unite once more in that spirit of cordial good will and brotherly love which united our forefathers in -the earlier days of the republ ic. lrt us renew before we leave his grave oar vows to sop port the Union, and our determination to perpetuate our constitution in all its prim eval simplicity and purity. There is room enough, glory enough, and honors for us all, while we preserve the Union, ami know how wisely & prudently to enjoy it. Mr Webster 9aid : I heard with infinite delight the senti ments expressed by my honorable friend from Louisiana, Mr Iewu,3 vrbn has jos-t resumed his seat, when he earnestly pray ed that this event might be used to soften the animosities, to allay party criminations and recriminations, and to restore fellow ship and good feeling among the various sections of the Union. Mr Secretary, great as i3 our loss to-day, if these inesti mable and inappreciable blessings- shalj have been secured to trs, even by (he death' of Zachary Taylor, they have not been purchased at too high a price; and if his spirit, from the regions to which he has as cended. cu?d see these results flowing from his unexpected and untimely end i f he could see that he had entwined a sol dier's laurel around a martyr's crown he would say exultingly, happy am I, that by my death I hare do7e more for that country which 1 loved and served, than t did or could do by the devotion, and all the efforts that I could make in her behalf, during the short span of my earthly exist ence'' Mr Cass said :' Let us humbly hope that this afflicting dispensation of Providence may not be without its salutary mflffence. It comes in the midst of a strong agitation1, threaten ing the most disastrous conseqnences to our country, and to the great cause of self government through the World It is a sol emn appeal, and should be solemnly heard and heeded. His death whee loss we mourn wilt tint be in Vain if it tends to subdue the feelings that have been excited, and to prepare the Various sections of our cotintry for a imrtuar spirit of forbearance which shall iflsttre the safety of all by the zealotrs eo-operatron of all. We could of fer no more appropriate or durable' tribute to departed worth than such a sacrifice of conflicting- views apon the altar of our com mon country. In life and in death he wotrld equally have devoted himself to her service and her safety. Mr King of Ala. , said : Asa man, I have said, he was honest of purpose. His patriotism his devoticfn tor the constitution of his country, under which he cherished these free institutions, I have never questioned. I think I knew him tell, and 1 believe there was no man more patriotic ff errors were committed I shall draw the curtain over them. So longer would I feel justified in holding him up to the public gaze, even if they had been ten times as glaring as they were. The country has reason to deplore the death of a great man. He has gone from among us, and the afflictive event has been appealed to cultivate and cherish kind relations. I trust in God that these kind relations will be cherished, and that we shall cm thisHay vow on the altar of our country to discard all bickering and striel, all sectional dissensions and live and die as Americans should in support of the Un ion. -, . . ; . -'..'."; v ...

It will be so still. 1 remember, when the prophet re ferred to by the gentleman from Massachu setts fMr Winthrop was surrounded by a hostile force, and all hope of escape seem ed cut off, that a young man who was with him cried nut in great fear; and the reply of the prophet was, a prayer that the young man's eyes might be opened. He then? saw that all within the hostile Vines were "chariots and horsemen of fire," ready to succor ami to deliver the beleaguered city So will it be with us. The dangers which threaten us will be averted, ami, I trust, forever disposed of. The proceedings in the House were much ths same as thase ia the Senate.

The Senate soon alter adjourned to meet on Saturday, as did aho the House, alter being iit session a tew moments. C5- The N. O. True Delta says that the Gov ernment has heretofore neglected the call of Teas for troops to protect her frontiers from the Indians, but that since the change in the as pect of affairs between Texas and the U.

The Delta surmises that there may be a double porpose ia tbat movement. SlOO Reward! We will give 100' revfard to any man who til produce the proof that David S. Keid ever vote!
