Physiological Chemist, by J. S. Houghton, M.

This Is a great Natural Remedy for Indigestion,
and Dyspepsia, curing after Nature's own Method,
b) Nature's own Agent, the Gastric Juice. Pepsin
Is the chief element, or Great Dlaestinz Principle
of the Gastric Juice the Solvent of the Food, the
Iwifvmg, Preserving, snd Stimulating Agent of
tneetemsch snd intestines, ills erfractcd Irom
the Digestive Stomach of the Ox, thus forming an
Artificial Digestive Fluid, precisely like the nainni
Gastric Juice, in its Chemical powers, and furnish
ing a complete and perfect substitute for it. By
the aid of this preparation, the pains snd evils orin
digestion and Dyspepsia are removed just as they
would be by a healthy Stomach. It Is doing wonders
for Dyspeptics, curing cases of debility, emaciation,
nervous decline and Dyspeptic consumption, fsup
posed to be on thr verge of the grave The Scien
tific Evidence upon which it is based, Is in the
hiahest decrree curious!and remarkable.
Baron Leiebis. In his celebrated work on Animal
Chemistry, ssys t "An Artificial Digestive Fluid,
analogous to the Gaatrlc Juice, may be prepared from
the mucous membrane of the stomach of the Ox, In
which , various articles of food, as meat and eggs,
wil be softened, changed, and digested, just in the
tame manner a thev would b tn tne human stomach."
Haifa teaspoonrul or pure Pepsin-, infused or dls
olved in water, will digest or dissolve Five Pounds
Roast Beef in about too hour out of the 8 torn
aeh.
Dr. Houehlon'a Pepsin, Is sold by nearly all the
dealers in fins drues snd Popular Medicine, throojrh
Out the United States. It is prepared In Powder,
and in Fluid form and in Prescription vials for the
nse of Phvsicisns. r r' i
i Private Circulars, for the use of Physicians, may
be obtained of Dr Houghton or bia Agents, descri
bing the whole process of preparation and giving
the authorities upon which the elaima of this new
remedy are based. As it is not a secret remedy, do
objection can be raised against its use by Physicians
in respectaoto sianuing ana regutuL-practice. mce

For convenience of sending to all parts of the

I consider this the best and most advantage

materially increase the length of the Road, ' -'
it avoids h poMtpility of ,endleas ; liUffauon -and

the margin of the river for op wards of a mile,
Ihnt freigliU can be transferred to and from.

sideration will be ihe value H will give- to '
more than a mil ot Sront, owned by . tha

of being made at a comparatively small cost
the most valuable wharf properly In the vit j
einity ot Wilmington. The location of tbe ?
terminal Station, opposite to the centre of the 1 .
town,: will afford the greatest convenience to
way travellers and tbe business of the townv
ana the time and cost of transportation from'.

from the most favorable point that could bo
elected on the western side of tbe Cape Fear"

In addition to thi the (rack can faa r-
tended, at a small cost, to a point opponte
tbe lower end of tbe town, and thns. cH v fa.

progrossing, with .their (ionlrar.ls I" r Gradual

operations. Or who have suspended for : saeb-

have forwarded to each a codv of the order

The coristroction of thetrpstle work and'
