gy fo the stomach and liver, they also allay
nervous excitability and irritation. As by their
tonic powers they restore the tone of the atom-
ach, create an appetite and regulate the bow-
els. so, by their sedative effect, they remove
restlessness, night-sweats, and produce quiet
and healthful sleep. In colds, coughs, spitting
of blood or sore throat, they are invaluable.--
For testimony read the following certificate :

Mr. R. F. Hr.smnD,—I verily believe that
your Cherry Bitters has been the __meanI-
through Providence, of saving mylife.‘ I have
been ailing for several years, and for the last
year I had 9. very bad COUGH. It became
worse and worse. At last I raised large quan-
tities of blood, had night-sweats, and was great-
ly debilitated and reduced, and did not expect
to live. After using a. few bottles of your Bit-
ters there has been 9. wonderful change wrought
in me. I am now able to walk all over the
city.‘ I raise no blood, and my cough has left
me. You can well imagine that I am thankful
for these results. Your Obd’f Serv’f.

Noah Webster-—Professor Stowe-
Under date of‘ May 15th, 1854, Professor
Stowe, f‘ormerly.of.0hio, now of Ma.ssachusetfs,_
well known as an ardent an intelligent friend
of pop educatiou, says :—
‘ ‘I: am decidedly in favor of‘Webster for the
following reasons, to wit.”
1. Webster is the most uniformly analogi-
cal and self‘-consistent.
2. His system falls in most completely with

thing he goes beyond present usage it is in the
right direction, and the usage’ will soon over-
take him. _

3. He has present possession of the ground ,
more than any other one. In the United ,
States he in the authority, everywhere, except 

er one. In England be has more than any
other one, and is cc.-nf,iuually gaining.

4. He is the great flmcrican Philologist,
(he most learned and devoted scholar in his
special department that the English knows;
and for this reason, other things being equal,
he deserves the reference.

5. Ifwc won (I have uniformity, we must
adopt Webster, for he cannot be displaced ;
-but others may be.”

“ It gives me great pleasure to state that I
have made use either of your quarto or octnvo
Dlcfionu _ , ever since the time of their publi-
cation, and that for copiousness, for exsctitude
of definatlon, and adnpfeduess to the present
state of science and literature, they seem to me
to be the most valuable works ofthe kind that
I have ever seen in our language. In the gen-
eral principles of orthography and pronuncia-
tion, which you have adopted, I also concur,
and shall endeavor hereafter to conform to them
in pructice.”—-Pres. Wayland of Brown Uni-
versity.

“Ihave been in the habit of using Dr. Web-
-ster’s Dictionary for several years past, in
preference to all others, because it far excels
them all as far as I know, in iving and defin-
ing scientific terms.”-—Pres. Hitchcock of Am-
