The following are among many testi monials of its efficacy . . Da. R. II. Worthinqton Peab Sib : I take much pleasure in addiug my testimony to others in favor cf your remedy for Bowel Affections, &c. hating so frequently experienced its beneficial re sults in my own case, as well as in many other to whom I hare given it. I carried a bottle of it with me to Baltimore, (and here permit me to say I would as soon think of travelling without money as without this remedy) and finding many among my acquaintances there who were suffering with various forms of Buwel Affections, I gave it freely, and in no instance did It fail to afford the Most PftoMPT and DErirtrD acLltr as it hn9 done here. rDS : lated to protect mankind and alleviate suffering than any other Ter brought before the people. L. T. 9HERS. This is to certify. that, some week back, I was taken with a. violent Diarrh&a, which persisted for eight days. Being some sixty miles from home, I made use of all the remedies' I could think of, but without affording any relief On arriving at home, I was informed that Dr. R 11. Worthlngton had prepared a remedy fr Cholera, c., and was advised to use it. I did so. and to my astonish ment, one single dose gave speedy ami permanent relief, since which time I have used it frequently in my family ; and, in justice to the Doctor, say I consider it mrru thk moat vilcabi.k medicine I have used in an experience at twentv vears. F. M OAPFHART. Murfreesboro,' N. C; Oct 2, 18-4 . Dr. Wortiiington Dkar Sir: I t:ke ,great pleasure in recommending your Cholera Medicine to the public and more especially since I have had personal experience and observation of its benefi cial effect. I have tried several remedies put up forCholera, &C but have never found such huppy results from any as from yonr invaluable remedy. I have such unbounded confidence in its efficacy, that I am unwilling and will not leave home without a supply with me; and 1 regard it as one of the most valuable discoveries of the age. Yours, very truly, W. P. BEAMAN. Windsor, N. C, Sept 13, 1854. Dr. R. H. Worthixtjto.v Dear J?ir . I have made some effort, and have succeeded in introdu cing your Melicine to the public, and I find it is taking very well indeed ; and the result is, that I have nearly sold what you seut me. 1 there fore, wish you would send me some more as soon as you can. I have not the slightest doubt but that this Medicine is the very best reme dy out for the disease for which it is recommend ed. I hope you will soon send me a supply, as I would not like to get entirely out of it. Yours, truly, GEORGE W. McOLAUGHON. From the Murfreesboro' Gaxette. Mfssbs. Editors- Iu looking over the last number of the Gaxette, I found a communication from our friend, Mr. L. P. Spiers, rcommeoding Dr. R. H. Worthington's Cholera Mixture to the public, for the cure of diarrhoea, dysentery, and other kindred diseases Having experience in my own case, the happy effect of its use, as well as other members of my family, I can safely sy that I regard it superior to any remedy we have ever used, in an experience of twenty years. I would, therefore, recommend it to every family as an in valuable remedy, and every individual to procure a bottle and keep it by them in thee times of cholera. R. R PARKER. Murfreesboro,' Aug. 30th, 1854. This is to certify that 1 have used Dr. R. H. Worthington's Cholora medicine in my family for the last four or five weeks, in several ca-tes of Bowel Complaint, so common in our vicinity, with invariable success. One of the c -es was that of a negro child, some four or five months old, who was so emaciated ky the effects of the disease, that it 3 life was nearly despaired of, when my wife happened to think that she would try the Cholera Medicine, and did so with complete success in less than forty-eight hours. I am throughly of opinion that no family should be without so fine a medicine - Given under my hand, this 3rd day of October, 1854 A W PARDEN. Mi RrassBOBo' N C. Dr. R. H. Worthington. It affords us pleasure to say that we have used your Cholera Diarrhoea medicine for the last twelve months, and have found it invariably successful, in relieving speedily the cases in which we have had occasion to use it. We entertain a high ap preciation of its value, and have no hesitation in expressing the opinion that it will prove to be a valuable family medicine. RICHARD G. COWPF.R B. F: SPIERS. Sold by P. F.

The oldest establishment in the United States. 1 Employing two-huudred men, and finishing eighty Instruments per week. Description or thi Mslodkon, For the bene fit of those residing at a distance, and consequent ly unable to inspect the Melodeon before purchas ing, we will endeavor to give a short description of the Instrument. The oases are made of rose wood, and are as handsomely finished as any piano-forte. The key-board is precisly the same as the piano or organ, and the tone (which is very beautiful) closely resembles that ofthe flute stop of the organ the notes speak the instant the keys are touched, and will admit of the performance of as rapid passages as the piauo. The pedal on the right supplies the wind, and works so easily that a chi d can manage it without any exertion. The bellows (which is something entirely new and for which a patent was granted in December, 1840,) is a reversed or exhaustion bellows and it is this in a measure which produces the peculiar tone. The volume of tone is equal to that of a small organ, and by means of the swell may be increas ed or diminished at the pleasure ofthe performer, it is sufficiently loud for small churches, and is well calculated for a parlor instrument. Hundreds have examined them, and all have been lond in their praise : and the best evidence of their merit is their rapid sale. But it is a new instrument a new invention and is yet but little known in tbe musical world, and it is for this reason that we call to it the attention of all lovers of music, believ ing that there are thousands who would lose no time in securing one, were they aware of the existence of such an instrument, and the low price at which it could be obtained. The following letter from Lowxll Mason, Bos ton, to G. P. Reed, we are permitted to use. Mr. Geo P. Refi., No. 17 Tremont Row, Boston, Mass. Dear Sir At your request, I have examined one of the Melodeons manufactured by Messrs. Geo. A. Priiwv A Co., of Buffalo. I think them in all respects equal and in some respects supe rior to siiy others of similar kind which I have seen, and in particular with respect to quality of tone and promptness of touch, or action of the reeds by which quick pasaagea may be performed with certain and distinct articulation of tone. An instrument of this kind is the best substitute for an organ, in church music, with which I am ac quainted. Lo will Mason. PRICES.

During the past three years, we have finished over Three Thousand Mtlodeont per year; we have nearly completed our arrangements for finishing Four Thousand annually.' The celebrity which our Mel odeons have attained has induced nearly every music dealer in the United states and Canada to apply for the agency ; but as we make but one Agent in each city or town, many are necessarily disappointed. The result has been that our Name Plate has been put upon Melodeous which were not manufactured by us ; and again, (in a few instances wchch have come to our knowledge) dealers, who have been unable to obtain; our instruments, have iacepted the agrncy of some other manufacturer keeping one of our instruments which had purposely been put out of tune, and in bad order, as a foil to the inferior article they offered to the public. For these reasons we caution these who wish to satisfy themselves of the merits of our Melodeons to ex amine those only which are offered by our Agcuts or those who deal exclusively in our instruments. Man improvements applie J are exclusively our own and being the original manufacturers, our experi ence has enabled us to produce instruments which a discerning public have pronounced superior to anything of the kind hitherto manufactured. Many ofthe most eminent musicians ofthe cities of New York and Boston have voluntarily given testimon ials as to the high character of of our instruments, which can be seen on application. All orders from a distance will be promptly at tended to, and a wtitten guaranty of their dura bility given if required. April 24, 1855. 83 w8m. Valuable family of Negroes for Sale !

Indeed, very few are the diseases in which a Purgative Medi cine is not more or less required, and much sick ness and suffering might be prevented, if a harm less but effectual Cathartic were more freely used. No person can feel well while a costive habit of body prevails ; besides it soon generates serious and often fatal diseases, which might have been avoided by the timely and judicious use of a good purgative. This is alike true of Colds, Feverish symptoms, and Bilious derangements. They all tend to become or produce the deep seated and formidable distempers whioh load the hearse all over the land. Hence a reliable family physic is of the first importance to the public health, and this Pill has been perfected with consummate skill to meet that demand. An extensive trial of its virtues by Physicians, Profes sors, and Patients, has shown results surpassing any thing hitherto known of any medicine. Cures have been effected beyond belief, were they not sub stantiated by persons of such exalted position and character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth. Among the many eminent gentlemen who have testified in favor of these Filla, we may mention : Da. A. A. Hatbs, Analytical Chemist, of Boston, anH Stat- linj 11 v Maasaehnaetta, whose high professional character is endorsed by the Hon. Edwiid Evanm, Senator of the t). 8. Robkbt C.Wixthuof, Ex-Speaker of the House of Representatives. Abbott Lawkxnce, Minister Plen. to England, f-Jornt B. Frrzr a trick, Cath. Bishopof Boston. Also, Dn. J. R. Chilton, Practical Chemist, of New York City, endorsed by Hon. W. L. Mabct, Secretary of State. Wm. B. AsTOR, the richest man in America. S. Leulnd A Co., Propr's of the Metropolitan Hotel, and others. Did space permit, we could give many hundred certificates, from all parts where the Pills have been used, but evidence even more convincing than the experience of eminent public men is found in their effects upon trial. These Pills, the result of long investigation and study, are ottered to the public as the best and most complete which the present state of medical science can afford. They are compounded not of the drugs themselves, but of the medicinal virtue only of vegetable remedies, extracted by chemical process in a state of purity, and combined togethei in such a manner as to insure the best results. This system of composition for medicines has beeij found in the Cherry Pectoral and Pills both, to produce a more efficient remedy than had hitherto been ob tained by any process. The reason is perfectly ob vious. While by the old mode of composition, ev ery medicine is burdened with more or less of acri monious and injurious -qualities, by this each indi vidual virtue only that is desired for the curative etiect is present All the inert and obnoxious qual ities of each substance employed are left behind, the curative virtues only being retained. Hence it is self-evident the effects should prove as they have proved more purely remedial, and the Pills a surer, more powerful antidote to disease than any other medicine known to the world. As it is frequently expedient that my medicine should be taken under the counsel of an attending Physician, and as he could not properly judge of a remedy without knowing its composition, I have supplied the accurate Formula: by which both my Pectoral and Pills are made to the whole body of Practitioners in the United States and British Amer ican Provinces. If however there should be any one who has not received them, they will be promptly forwarded by mail te hia address. Of all the Patent Medicines that are offered, how few would be taken if their composition was known ! Their life consists in their mystery. I have no mysteries. .... The composition of my preparations is laid open to all and all who are competent to judge on the subject freely acknowledge their convictions of their intrinsic merits. The Cherry Pectoral was pronounced by scientific men to be a wonderful medicine before its effects were known. Many em inent Physicians have declared the same thing of my Pills, and even more confidently, and are will ing to certify that their anticipations were more than realised by their effects upon trial. They operate by their powerful influence on the internal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate it into healthy actios rmuin the obstructions of the stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs of the body, restoring their irregular action to health, and by correcting, wherever they exist such derange ments as are the first origin of disease. Being sugar wrapped they are pleasant to take, and being purely vegetable, no harm can arise from their use in any quantity. For minute directions, see wrapper on the Box.
