Editors- In looking over the last number of the Gaxette, I found a communication from our friend, Mr. L. P. Spiers, rcommending 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 effects of its use, as well as other members of my family, I can safely say that I regard it superior to any remedy we have ever used, in an experience or twenty years. 1 wouia, therefore, recommend it to every family as an in- valuable remedy, and every individual to procure a bottle and keep it bv them in these times of cholera. R. R PARKER. Murfreesboro,' Aug. 30th, 1854. This is to certify that I have used Dr. R. H. Worthington's Cbolora medicine in my family for the last four or five weeks, in several cases of Bowel Complaint so common in our vicinity, with invariable success. One of the cases was that of negro child, some four or five months old, who was so emaciated by the effects of the disease, that its 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 amedicine Given under my band, this 3rd day of October, 1854. A. W. DARDEN. MURFRESBORO' N C Dr. R. H. Worthineton.

Description or thi Melodeor, 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 cases are made of rose- ood, and are as handsomely finished as any piano-forte. The key-board is precisly the same as the piauo or organ, and the tone (which is very beautiful) closely resembles that cf the flute stop of -the orgnn the notes speak the instant the keys are touched, and will admit of the performance of as rapid passages as the piano. The pedal on the right supplies the wind, and works so easily that a child can manage it without any exertion. The bellows (which is something entirely new and for which a patent was grantel in December, 1849,) is a reversed or exhaustion bellows aod 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 of the performer; it is sufficiently Itfud 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 the 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 aud the low price at which it could be obtained. The following letter from Lowkll Mason, Bos ton, to G. P. Keed, we are permitted to use. Mr. Geo. P. Reed, No. 17 Tremont Row. Boston, Mass. Dear Sir At your request, I have examined one of the MeloJeons manufactured by Messrs. Geo. A. I'rinc A Co., of Buffalo. I think them in all respects equal and in some respects supe rior to any 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 passages may be performed with certain and distinct articulation of tone. An instrument of this kind is the best substitute for organ, iu church music, with which I am ac quainted. Lowell Mason. PRICES.

CAUTION We commenced the manufacture of the Improved Melodeon in 1847, since which time we have finished and sold over Fourtetn Thousand. 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. 1 he celebrity which our Mel odeons have attained has induced nearly every music dealer in the United States and Canada to apply ror tne agency; dui as we maxe out one Agent in each city or town, many are necessarily disappointed. The result has been that oar Name Plate has been put upon Melodeous which were not manufactured by us ; and again, (in a few instances wchch have come to onr knowledge) dealers, who have been unable to obtain our instruments, have lacepted the agi uc? of some other manufacturer keeping one of our instrument 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 ouly which are offered by our Agents or those who deal exclusively in our instruments. Many improvements applied are exclusively our own and being the original manufacturers, our expert' ence has enabled us to produce instruments which a discerning public have pronounced superior to anything of the kind hitherto manufactured. Many of the most eminent musicians of the cities of New York and Boston Have voluntarilv riven 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 wi itten guaranty of their dura bility given if required. April 24, 1855. S3 w8m HENRY P. R0S9ELL. JOSEPH B. RUSSELL.

No person can feel well while a costive habit of body prevails-; besides it soon generates serious and often fatal dianaana, which might have been avoided by tne timely ana juaicious uae 01 a gooa purgative. This is alike true of Colds, Feverish symptoms, and Bilious derangements. They au tena to Become or produce the deep seated and formidable distempers which load the hearses 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 Tills, we may mention : Da. A. A. Hats, Analytical Chemist of Boston, and State Aseayer cf Massachusetts, whose high professional character is endorsed by the Hon. Kaward Everett, Senator of the Tj. S. BoRRRTC.Wnmuior, Ex-Speaker of the House of Representatives. Abbott Lawrrncs, Minister Plen. to England, f John B. Frrrr atrjcx, Cath. Biahopof Boiton. Also, Dr. J, R.

Lxland A Co., Propr's of the Metropolitan Hotel, and others. Did space permit we coold 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 e fleets npon trtaL These Pills, the result of long Investigation and study, are offered to the public ss 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 virtuei 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 compoaition for medicines has been found in the Cherry Pectoral and Pills both, to produce a more etScient remedy than had hitherto beenob tained by any process. The reason is perfectly ob vious. While by the old mode of compoaition, 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 ' effect 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 his address. Of all the Patent Medicines that are offered, how tew would be taken if their composition was known t Their lite consists in their mystery. I have no mysteries. The composition cf my preparations is laid open to all men, and all who are competent to judge on the subject freely acknowledge their convictions of their in trinsio 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 action remove the obstructions of the stomach, bowels, Ever, and other organs of the body, restoring their irregular action to health, and by correcting, wherever they exist such derange ments ss 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. PRKPASED Br JAMES 0.
