They lell a good many political jokes of our neighbors now occupying the ancient lands of the Alabama, among them the following: An out and oui party man, a landlord, who had accommodated political friends for twenty years, happened to go into a nominuiintr convention just ns they had finished ' their business, and heard a liu.'e delegate n ore that "t ;is convention ad journed line die." Sine die I" said Mr. G , to n. person grinding near, "whf-re's that ?" "AVhy, that's way in the northern part of the country," said his neighbor. "Hold on it you please, Mr. Cheerman," said the landlord, with great emphasis and earnfstness, "..old on," sir I'd like to be hetri o thut question. I have kept ft pi b lic house now for more'n twenty years. I'm u poor man. I've always belonged to the party, and never split in my life. This is the most central location in the country, and it's wh-re we've alters met. I've never find nor asked an office, and have worked night and day for the party, and now 1 think, sir, it is contemptible to go to ad journing this convention way vp to sine die."

In the last stages of the above mentioned disease had been eiven up to die by their ph yi cians, which warrants me in promising to the urftctcd. who may plate thernectre rmder nry care a perfect and most speedy care, secret diseases are the greatest enemies to health, as they are the first cause of consumption, 6crolala and many other diseases, and should be a terror lo the human family, as a permanent cure is scarcely ever effected, a majority of the cases falling into, fthe handa of imco npetenl persons, who not noly ail to cure Ihe diseases but ruia the constitution, filing the system with mercury, which with the disease, hastens the sufferer into rapid consump tion. Bat should the disease and the treatment not cause death speedily and the victim marries, the disease is entailed upon the children, who are born with feeble constitutions, and the current of life corrupted by a virus which betray itself in Scrofula, Tetter, Ulcers, Eruptions snd other af foctionefihffskiR Eyes.

I have carefully analyzed, many ot the so-cnlled Patent Medicines and find that nearly all of them contain Corrosive Sabhinlte, which is one of the strong est prepsrations of mercury, and a deadly poison, which instead of curing the disease, disables the sys'em for life. Three fourths of th patent nostrums now in it e are put up by unprincipled and ignorat person who do not understand even the alphabet of the materia medics, and are equally as destitute of any knowledge of the human system, having one object only in view, and thai to make money re gardless ol consequences. irregularities and all diseases of males and fe males treated on principles established by twenty rears of practice, and sanctioned by thousands of the most remarkable cures.

A CERTAIN DISEASE. When the mleeuided and imnmrfeht cni.r at. pleasure finds he has imbibed the seeds of. Ii is painful disease, it too often happens that acill-tini- ed sense of shame, or dread of diacovery, detats' him from applrina to those Who. troav edarLc and respectability, can alone befriend him, delay ing till the constitutional symptoms of ihis horrid' disease make their appearance, eu h sa ulcerated; sore thmat. diseased nose, noctnral pains in the head and limbs, dimness of siht. deafness, noars' on the shin bones and arms, blotches a the head, face and extremities, progressing wlfh frightlul ra pidity, till at last the pafcite of the mouth or the' bones of the nose fall In. aad the victim of this awfnldisease becomes a horrid object ofcommir se rat Job, till death ptrfaa period to his dreadful suf " ferings, by sending h)Bi to "that bourne Iron whence no traveller returns.
