Cttnsumptiw, do not despair till you have tried Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. It is made by one of the best medical chemists in the world, and its cures all round us bespeak the high merits- of ita Virtues. JiUudeljyhia Ledger. Ayer's Cathartic Pills. THE sciences of Chemistry and Medicine have been taxed their utmost to produce this best, most perfect purgative which is known to man. Innumerable proofs are shown that these Pills have virtues which surpass in excellence the ordiua " ry medicines, and that they win unprecedentedly upon the esteem of all men. t hey are safe and pleas,ant to take, but powerful to cure. Their penetrating properties stimulate the vital activities of the body, remove the obstructions or Jts organs, purify the blood, and expel disease. They purge out the foul humors which breed and grow distemper, stimulate sluggish or disordered or gans into their natural action, aud impart healthy tone with Itreu"th to the whole system. Not only do they cure the every day complaints of every body, but also formidable and danger ous diseases that have baffled the best of human skill. hito thev produce powerful effects, they are, at the some time, in minished doses, the safest and best physic that can be employed for children. Being sugar-coated, they are pleasant to take ; and being purely vegetable, are free from any risk of harm. Cures have been made which surpass belief were they not sub stantiated by men of such exalted position and character as to forbid the suspicion of uutruth. Many eminent clergymen and rthvsicians have lent their names to certify to the public tne re liabilitv of mv remedies, while others have sent me the assur ance of their conviction that my lTeparations contribute im mensely to the relief of my afflicted, suffering fellow-men. The "V-ent below named is pleased to furnish gratis my Amer ican Almanac, containing directions for their use, and certifi cates of their cures of the following complaints : Costiveness, Bilious Complaints, Rheumatism, Dropsy Heart burn.

We learn from the Asheville News that a meeting of the democracy of Yancey Co., was held in Burnes ville on the 25th of October, where resolutions were adopted against the Harper's Ferry outrage. Also, strong resolutions endorsing our present worthy State Executive, and recommending his re-election. Resolutions were adopted commendatory of our worthy Chief Magistrate, James Buchanan, and also one strongly condemning Stephen A. Douglas' Ter ritorial Squatter sovereignty. - Ten Delegates were appointed to attend a district December, afitt twenf--'critSfkHnStl attenlHh State Convention to be held at Raleigh. ; We also learn from the same paper that a meeting of the democracy of Madison county was held at their county seat on the 10th of October, at which, reso lutions of a similar nature with those of Yancey Co., were adopted, and delegates appointed as above. We give the Douglas resolution : Resolved, That while we are not disposed to interpose obstacles in the way of the concert and harmony of the action of the approaching National Convention, yet we are constrained from a sense of duty to our party and its ott tried nationality, to declare that the doctrine recently espoused by Mr Douglas, on the 'subject of Federal and Local author ity in the Territories, is not the docti iue of the Na tional Democratic party. Some of our sensible Opposition exchanges think jt was wrong for us democrats to 4 4 make capital" out of the Harper's Ferry insurrection, because the Black Republicans have triumphantly repelled the idea of any connection with it, at the polls in New York and New Jersey. Now this is strange logic ; to us it would seem that the Republicans have endorsed Brown's course, and those who endorse the vote of the Black Republicans must acknowledge that they indirectly countenance the 44 irrepressible conflict." A writer to the New York Tribune intimates that another Brown " another noble, daring heroic Brown would add a greater vote to the Republican cause and crush the Black Democrats." No wonder though it should be so when we find such bitter opposition to the Democracy in the South. Cumberland Co. Aguicultukal Society. By an advertisement in another column it will be seen that a meeting of this Society is to be held on the 15th instant to elect officers and transact other important business. We sincerely trust that the old officers may be re-elected. We desire to see the society prosper, therefore we are anxious to see the present ollicers retained, none could fill the various stations with morp acceptability, or work more earnestly and en ergetically for the good of the institution, than our present board. Whatever may have happened between them and ourselves, will not prevent us from doing our duty to the county and agricultural ,interests. A little scolding does good sometimes to the best of men. When we have such efficient officers, they should certainly be continued as a change might work in jury to the Society in many ways first because we should let well enough alone, and secondly, the charge of political favor having been brought al ready, a change might result in another extreme. Let therefore all who desire the welfare of the in stitution labor to keep it up, and we are certain the best way of doing so, is to elect those who have serv e 1 so well in time past who have brought the So ciety from a State of helplessness to its present pros perous condition. We may have taken exceptions to the way in which w e were treated, but no one can take exception to the present ollicers iu any other way. Accident to a Little Gikl. Edwin Roberts, a free white man, having found some loose change in his possession on Monday, determined to spend it for old rye whisky. The result was that Edwin got drunk gloriously drunk and with the help of his whisky, ranaway with a horse and curt. The horse not being accustomed to such a wild customer, ran away upsetting the cart and seriously injuring a little daughter of Shepherd Maultsby. Roberts was conveyed to the toombs where he whiled away the hours by having a 44 revival" meet ng singing lustily one or two good hymns. Superior Court. This tribunal, His Hon. Judge Caldwell presiding is now in session. No cases of importance were tried on yesterday. The Judge delivered a very pointed and direct charge to the grand Jury; not over wordy, but one which was calculated to remind them of their duty to the State. To-morrow will be the State day when we will be able to give our readers some important items. Daily Carolinian. 15th inst. Bladen County Soebifalty. We learn that at last county Court Sheriff Willis of Bladen county made an offer to resign his office, but a majority of the justices not being present, his resignation would not be received, and he having neglected to give his bond, the office was declared vacant Consequently Bladen county is without a Sheriff the Coroner by virtue of his office acting in that capacity.

For these three hours work, Jude Saun ders received $1)0. It is truly wonderful, how our Judges live on such small pay, and have to under"0 such an amount of labor; no wonder that Judo Shepherd talks of resigning. ; - The above morsel is from the Greensboro" Patriot. A one sided statement of any thing is equivalent to no statement at all. Why did not the editors of the Patriot refer to innumerable instances in which' Superior Court Judges labor hard from o'clock, a. m. till 9 p.m.? Of course it is policy in them, when endeavoring to reproach such men asv Judge Shep herd to print a one-sided statement- only.

We tad the pleasure of a visit from Judge Person this morning. He looks as if the world used him well, for his health seems to be good.

JOSHUA R GIDD1XGS having openly declared himself a Traitor in a lecture at rniiauclphio, on the 28th of October, and there being no process, strange, to say, by which he can be brought to jus tice, 1 propose to be one of one hundred to raise &10.00 for his safe delivery in Richmond, or ."),(iiO for the production of his head. 1 do not regard tnis proposition extraordinary as it may at first seem, .;thiT- nniiist nr unmerciful. The law of God and the constitution of the country both condemn him to death. For satisfactory reasons I withhold my name lrom the public, but it is in the hands of the editor of the Richmond Whig. There will be no difficulty I am sure in raising the $10,000 upon a reasonable pros pect of getting the said Giddings to this city. Richmond, November 1st, lbo'J. The Democracy.
