It is made by one of the best medical chemists in the world, and its cures all round us bespeak the high merits of it virtues. Philadelphia Ledger. Ayer's Cathartic Pills. rpiIE sciences of Chemistry and Medicine have been taxed 1 their utmost to produce this best, most perfect purgative which is known to man. Innumerable proofs are shown that these Pills have virtues w hich surpass in excellence the ordina ry medicines, and that they win unprecedcntedly upon the esteem of all men. They are safe and pleasant to take, but powerful to cure. Their penetrating properties stimulate the vital activities of the body, remove the obstructions of its organs, purify the blood, and expel disease. They purge out the foul hrrmors which breed and grow distemper, stimulate sluggish or disordered or gans into their natural action, and impart healthy tone with strength to the whole system. Xot only do they cure the every day complaints of every body, but also formidable and danger ous diseases that have battled the best of human skill. While they produce powerful effects, they are, at the same time, in di minished doses, the safest and beat physic that can I employed for children. Being sugar-coated, they are pleasant to t;ike; and being purely vegetable, are free from any risk of harm. Cures have been made which surpass belief were they not su! Ftantiated by men of such exalted position and character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth. Many eminent clergymen and physicians have, lent their names to certify to the public tiie re liability of my remedies, while others have sent me the assur ance of their conviction that my Preparations contribute im mensely to the relief of my afflicted, suffering fcllow-iutii. The Agent below named is pleased tofurni.-.h gratis my Amer ican Almanac, containing directions for their use, an J cert ifi cates of their cures of the following complaints: Costiveness, Bilious Complaints. Itheumatism, Prepay, ITenr burn, Headache arising from a foul Stomach, Xnusra. Indiges tion, Morbid Inaction of the Bowels.and Pain arising therein m, l latulcncv, Loss of Appetite, all Ulcerous ami Cutaneous Dis eases which require an evacuant Medicine, Scrofula or King's Evil. They also, by purifying the blood and stimulating the sys tem, cure many complaints which it would not be supiiosed they vuld reach, such as Deafness. Partial Blindness, Xenrnlgia and Nervous Irritability, Derangements of the Liver and Kidneys, Gout, and other kindred complaints arising from a low state of the body or obstruction of its functions. Do not be put off bv unprincipled dealers with some other pUI they make more profit on. Ask for Ayer's Pills, and take noth ing else.

One of the strangest things in the world is tliat two nations like the U. States and Great Britain sliould be continually growling at each other, never content with what we have, but like the horse leach we are trying give, give !" This trait of the American character is not a little indulged in by our cousin over the water, and it appears that at this time the John Dulls are a little grasping and wish to appropriate more than is their own. The Island of San Juan is the bone of contention at present. It is mi Island ome fifteen miles ! long by eeven wide. It e4twtl ' tuetwcn the Straits of Rosario and the Canal do Haro is claimed by Washington Territory as a portion of Yatcom county. The British also claim it as belonging to the crown. According to the treaty of '40, it is most evi dent that this was acknowledged to be the property of the United Stat ss. The treaty of June 13, 1846, stipulates as follows : Article 1. "From the point of the fortv-nintlvpara 11 el of north latitude, where the boundary laid down in existing treaties and conventions between Great Rritan and the United States terminates, the line of boundary between the territories of her Britannic Majesty and those of the United Stales shall be con tinued westward along the 49th parallel of north latitude to the middle of the channel which separa tes the continent from Vancouver's Island: and thence southerly through the middle of the said channel and of Fuca Straits to the Pacific ocean : Provided, however, that the navigation of the said channel and straits south of the forty-ninth parallel of north latitude remain free and open to both par ties. There are two channels between the continent and Vancouver's Island, both of which lead into the Straits of Fuca. There are the Straits of ltosario and the Canal de Faro, the latter of which is near est to Vancouver's Island and is the recognized channel, stipulated in the treaty, for two reasons. 1st, it is really the only channel, being the widest and deepest; and 2ud, it is nearest to Vancouver's Island the property which it was thi desire of Britain to secure at the time the treaty was made. Besides, at that time there were no British sub jects upon any Island save Vancouver's, and that only, upon the extreme Southern enu of the Island. In the treaty there is no island mentioned except Vancouvers', as being the property of Great Britain. And we may safely infer that the islands nearest the continent belong to the continent, except words to the contrary were used. The island is one of great importance to the Uni ted States, from its near proximity to our posseas- bors upon it and two othrW i .r.nn T.nnez island very close to it. It is also a most important fishing sta tion and bids fair to be a valuable j'iece.of property to AVashington when it becomes a state. Lately the British government has begun to for tify Vancouver's island, and the ltussian Govern ment has taken the precaution to attend to their possessions in that latitude in the same way. While we are willing to concede what is rightfully theirs, we ought and no doubt will demand and enforce our own rights at all hazards. Gen. Harney has taken possession of the place and the British Government has dono the same. What the result will be we know not. The African Slave Trade ! The administration cannot be too highly commended for the efficient and early steps it has taken to suppress the African Slave Trade. In this as well as in nearly all other instances, is demonstrated most satisfactorily, to the people of the Nation, the efficiency, abil ity, and excellent management of those whose province and duty it is to administer the laws of the land. According to the joint treaty, with England, the United States is required, to place a force of Eighty guns, on the Afri can Coast ; the administration, however, has increased the number of Guns to one hundred and sixteen. Secretary Toucey, has ordered the following squadron, with efficient officers to each vessel, to the coast of Africa, The Steamers San Jacinto, Mystic, Sumpter, Mohican, and the Sloops of War Constellation, Portsmouth Marion and Vincenncs. The Constellation is the flag ship. On our own coast the steamers Crusader, Lieut. Maflit, t lie Mohawk, Lieut, Craven ; Wyandotte, Lieut. Stanly ; and Fulton. Com. G.G. Williamson. These Vessels are intended also to cruise upou the Cuban shore in order to detect any Slavers which might elude the vigileuce of the Naval force on the African coast. They are of much ligter draft than those formerly employed by us ; hence they will be the better prepared to chase vessels in this lawless business in shallow water.

Last week he attended Martin a ourt; this week he is presiding at Pitt Court. The Judge has set an example worthy of imitation, in his punctili ous regard of the Sabbath. He don't travel on Sunday.

Death by Lightxixg. Mr. David D. Kel ly, of Duplin County, was killed by a stroke of lightning, between Magnolia and Warsaw on monday evening last. Lecture. Rev. E. W. Caruthers, D. D., Author of "The Old North State in 1776" will deliver a Lecture before the "Greene Mountain Asscciatioa" at the Methodist Church in Greensboro on Friday next the ICth inst. The Charlotte Bulletin Its Democracy. W have watched with no'little interest the long and tedious examination of our cotemporary, by the political M. D's., and we find that according to its own statement of the extent and nature of it malady it is really in a critical condition. It is kind of democratic, kind of whig, and kind of neutral ; but a little m ro democratic than anything else. To show its various positions we will quote from it : " Bui, through respect to tho head of the leader of the Democratic Press in North Carolina, wo answer: We are Demoorats and always have been, the Senior dating back bis association with the Democracy twouty-eight yeara." That's democratic with one exception, viz : " the leader of the democratic press," (Standard). Tho Standard is not tho leader of the Democratic Press in North Carolina. It is the central organ. We. t one, know no leader but the principles of the parly. BnUwe copy again : ' ' " Being Democrats we expect to cooperate with the party by voting for its nominee if he or they are sound and reliable men." The first portion of this sentence is democratic ; the other pardon us friends Bulletin, if we say it is arrogance. By this an Editor of a paper i sets himself up as a judge, whoso judgment is to be relied upon more than the united wisdom of a convention of gentlemen, it assumes that the Edi tor or Editors of a political paper know more than say fifty men ! Why, such a course of conduct is nothing less than anarchy one man power tho very opposite oidemocraey. The Bulletin says : " Yet, we will exercise the riirht to canvass the claims and nualihcatiou ot all who seek office or may be brought forward for position." That's neither democratic nor whig ! The following is the only portion of the Bulletin's article which we consider democratic ; but this portion alone is excellent, read it : " We will defend and aid to sustain the Democ racy when they adhere to the principles of Democ racy as expounded by its fathers ; but rebuko those who by a temporising process lose sight of the paramount duties of the party Let tho De mocracy go forward aud do their duty and we will cheerfully render them our support ; otherwise, wo will expose their follies and endeavor to reform, them. Is the indard satisfied ?" A Suggestion. Now that the Merchants of our town and vi cinity, have commenced receiving their Fall and Winter stocks, we think a little wholesome ad vice on the subject of Advertising, would be bv no means amiss. The value of Printers Ink cannot be questioned by those who have tried the experiment of Advertising. Our col umns are ample testimonials, of the fact that Vo cc- t til cd ii uiuuj vWir ov.tf our Merchants are very liberal indeed. Those who advertise are our largest Merchants, xie rea son is palpable to those who convass the merits of the subject. Many poor men have become princely merchants in this way, and it is reasonable to suppose whatever has been done, may act as a criterien for the future. A gentleman just commencing in business told us sometime since that he intended to spend two hundred and fifty dollars, during each year, for Printers Ink. The consequence is, and it has not been many months since he spoke to us on the subject, he sells more goods in his line, thnn any other merchant engaged in a similar bnsi" uess in this place. These instances are innumer able ; we can recollect many, even in our own community. Try its friends and our word for it your business will increase, much more rapidly, than you imagine. Advertise liberally. It is the secret of suc cess to all, it matters net what their business may be. Excursion. On Saturday evening last a number of our citi zens and others took passage on the Western Rail Hood to Spout Springs, about twenty miles from town. The evening was fine and there was just sufficient number of passengers along to render tho trip a pleasant and agreeable one. The track from Little River to r ayetteville is in very excellent order ; indeed, it is so on the whole line of the road, except in a few occasional places which have not been worked upon recently. At Spout Springs a waier station anu warenouse are oeing erectcu. e learn also that Messrs D. Murchison & Son, intend building a store and filling it with goods at an early date. There are some deep cuts to bo made just above this place before the track laying can be re sumed again. When these are finished, between four and five miles of track can be laid forthwith. It is supposed they will reach the twenty -four mile post by Christmas. Bridge Fallen. Weregret to learn that tho Bridge ovei Little River at Manchester, twclvo miles west of this place, broke in two on Sunday evening at 8 o'clock. A wagon belonging to Abner Coletrain, Esq., of Randolph, was crossing it at tho time. The driver, a negro, was seriously if not fatally injured, three horses killed and tho entiro load, sixteen barrels of flour, thrown into the river. Another bridge, we understand, will be built imme diately. It should be done forthwith as a very large amount of country produce comes into town in that direction, and our country friends will, ia all probability, delay bringing it in until the bridgo is built again. Washington National, Monument. A con tribution box is at the Post office where those who wish to contribute towards the completion of this monument can do so. Similar boxes have been placed at various Post offices in the United States. In some places large contributions have ljeeu made, in others nothing has been received. Another Mass Meeting for the Blue Bidge Railkoal. We see by the Franklin, N. C, Ob server, that there- will bo a public barbecue given at Franklin, on Friday, the 23d of this month, by the friends of the Blue Ridge Railroad. Tho committee promise their friends in Georgia, South Carolina, and the adjoining counties, a cordial re ception and a hospitable entertainment.
