ING COUGH AND CONSUMPTION. 
Among the numerous discoveries science has made in this 
generation to facilitate the business of life, increase its enjoy¬ 
ment, and even prolong the term of human existence, none can 
be named of more real value to mankind, than this contribution 
of chemistry to the healing art. A vast trial of its virtues through¬ 
out this broad country has proved beyond a doubt, that no 
medicine nor combination of medicines yet known, can so surely 
control and cure the numerous varieties of pulmonary disease 
which have hitherto swept from our midst thousands and thou¬ 
sands every year. Indeed, there is now abundant reason to be¬ 
lieve a remedy has at length been found which can be relied on 
to cure the most dangerous affections of the lungs. Our space 
here will not permit us to publish any proportion of the cures 
affected by its use, but we would present the following opinions 
of eminent men, and refer further inquiry to the circular, which 
the agent below named will always be pleased to furnish free, 
wherein are full particulars, and indisputable proof of these facts. 
From the President of Amherst College , the celebrated Professor 
Hitchcock. —James C. Ayer, Sir : I have used your Cherry Pec¬ 
toral in my own case of deep-seated bronchitis, and am satisfied 
from its chemical constitution, that it is an admirable compound 
for the relief of laryngial and bronchial difficulties. If my opin¬ 
ion as to its superior character be of any service, you are at lib¬ 
erty to use it as you think proper. 
EDWARD HITCHCOCK, LL. D. 
From the widely celebrated Professor Stillman , M. D ., LE. D., 
Professor of Chemistry , Mineralogy , <$-c., Yale College , Mem¬ 
ber of the Lit. Hist. Med. Phil, and Scientific Societies of 
America and Europe. —“ I deem the Cherry Pectoral an admira¬ 
ble composition from some of the best articles in the Materia 
Medica, and a very effective remedy for the class of diseases it is 
intended to cure. 
New Hawn , Ct„ Nov. 1 st., 1849. 
From one of ' the first Physicians in Maine. — u Dr. J. C. Ayer, 
Lowell, Dear Sir: I am now constantly using your Cherry Pecto¬ 
ral in my practice, and prefer it to any other medicine for pul¬ 
monary complaints. From observation of many severe cases, I 
am convinced it will cure coughs, colds, and diseases of the 
lungs, that have put to defiance all other remedies. I invariably 
recommend its use in cases of consumption, and consider it 
much the best remedy known for that disease. 
Respectfully yours, I. S. CUSHMAN, M. D.

E NDLESS-CHAIN PUMPS, OR WATER 
Elevators.—These highly approved machines operate upon 
the same principle as those used for .grain. The elevator is made 
a part of an endless chain, that works over an iron wheel, and 
down into the water, around a pulley into the tube, through 
which a constant stream is made to flow into the pail, by simply 
turning the crank, attached to the wheel at the top, which any 
light hand can do with great ease. They are made of several 
sizes, and can be fitted up for any depth well, or cistern required. 
A New Use for Chain Pumps. —One of these of large bore, is 
the most efficient machine ever used for emptying the vaults of 
privies, where the contents are in a semi-liquid state.

iOMESTIC ANIMALS AT A UCTION.—The 
Jjj/ postponed yearly sale of full-bred shorthorns and improved 
dairy stock, consisting of about 50 head, will come off at my farm 
on Tuesday, June 24th, 1851, at 12 o’clock, M. I shall dispose of 
all the improved dairy stock, which is composed of the finest 
shorthorns, with a slight cross of Amsterdam Dutch, which, some 
writers say, was part of the original ingredient which composed 
the improved shorthorns. 
I am now breeding the shorthorns, Devons, and Ayrshires, 
each separately and pure, which, owing to the limits of my farm, 
make it necessary to confine myself to those three breeds. By the 
awards of the State Agricultural Society, me American Institute, 
and my own County Society, (with the exception of last year, 
when 1 was not a competitor at either,) it will fully appear that l 
have been a very success! 1 ?, exhibitor. The cow which won the 
first prize as a milker, it the American Institute last year, was 
bred by me, and composed of the above-alluded-to dairy stock. 
Several of the bulls got by Lamartine will be of the most appro¬ 
priate age for efficient service the coming season. All cows and 
heifers old enough, will be warranted in calf at the day of sale, 
by my imported bull u Lord Eryholme,” or my celebrated bull 
“ Lamartine.” 
I own two thorough-bred Devon bulls; one, the celebrated old 
Major; the other, one and a half years old, imported’ by me from 
Devonshire. One of the above animals will be sold, which, I 
have not as yet determined. 
A full catalogue, with the pedigree of each animal, will be pub¬ 
lished in due time, with minute description of sale, &c. 
I also have a number of Suffolk sows, in pig to my imported 
boar, most of the progeny of which will be old enough to dispose 
of on that day. 
I also have about 20 Southdown ewes, most of which I import¬ 
ed from the flock of Jonas Webb, and now in lamb to my im¬ 
ported buck “ Babraham.” Some of their buck lambs will be 
offered at auction on that day. 
This sale will not only offer an opportunity to obtain stock 
from my previous herd, but will also enable persons to procure 
calves from my imported bull, lambs from my imported ram, 
and pigs from my imported boar, all of which animals were re¬ 
cently selected by me in person, when in England. 
The mode of warranting the cows and heifers in calf, is this: 
In case they prove not to be so, it shall be optional with the pur¬ 
chaser, on his certificate of that fact, either to receive from 
me $25, or to send the cow to my farm, and 1 will keep her 
the proper time, (free of expense,) to have her got in calf to 
either of my bulls, which he shall choose. I will give $25 for any 
heifer calf from any of the cows or heifers sold at that sale, de 
livered on my farm, at two weeks old. 
Stock purchased to be sent to a distance, will be delivered on 
shipboard or railroad in the city of New York, free of risk or ex¬ 
pense to the purchaser. 
Persons living at the south, in a climate to which it would not 
be well that stock should be transported, at that hot season of 
the year, may let such animals as they may purchase, remain 
with me until the proper season, and I will have them well tak¬ 
en care of, and charge only a reasonable price for their keep. 
One of my objects in breeding improved domestic animals, is to 
assist in distributing them throughout the Union, deeming it one, 
if not the most important feature to promote profit to the culti¬ 
vator of the soil, and to benefit the consuming country at large. 
All communications through the Post Office please pre-pay, and 
1 will pre-pay their answers, and also a catalogue if required. Cat¬ 
alogues will be to be had at all the principal Agricultural Ware¬ 
houses, and offices of the principal Agricultural Journals, on and 
after the 1st day of June next. Persons wishing to view the 
stock at any time, will find my superintendanfc, Mr. Wilkinson, to 
give them the desired information when I am not at home. 
Dated this 4th day of March, 1851, at Mount Fordham, West¬ 
chester county, eight miles from the city of New York, by Har¬ 
lem Railroad. L. G. MORRIS.
