prepared for burial, and the remains
were to be-eeutto this city for Inter
ment. Ills sister, who was present at
the time of his supposed demise, arriv
ed here on Saturday night, and made
preparation to receive the melancholy
ebrtege. On Monday a hearse and car
riage went to the depot, but the object
of their search was not there, and they
received word that the funeral party
had.missed the train. The hearse went
to the depot again yesterday, but in
stead of the corpse there came a dis
patch stating that Mr. Warren showed
signs of life. A dispatch, received at
a late hour last evening, stated Uiftt he
had been removed from his conlii and
was sitting up in bed. What mu?t be
tho feelings of his friends at thus hav
ing restored to them one who was
mourned as dead, beyond the possibili

hours before exhibiting signs of ani

was sot for a place some distance from

The disease that prostrated him was

Also, Hurley's Worm Candy for children, is

I have received many testimonials from j
professional and medical men, as my alma- i
nacs and various publications have shown,
all of which are genuine. The following let
ter from a highly educated and popular phy
sician in Georgia, is certainly one of the most
scnsihlocommunicrtfions I have ever received.
Dr. Clement knows exactly what he speaks
of. and his testimony deserves to be written
in letters of gold. Hear what the Doctor
says of BULL’S WORM DESTROYER:

June 2fi, 18bd. j
Dr. John Bull—Dear Sir: I have recent
ly given your “Worm Destroyer” several
tvials, and find it wonderfully efficacious. D 1
has not failed in a single instance to have the 1
wished for effect. 1 atu doing a pretty large
country practice, and have daily use for some 1
article of the kind. I am free to confers that
I know of no remedy recommended by the
ablest authors that is so certain and speedy
in its effects. On the contrary they are un
corteain in the extreme. My object In writ
ing you is to find upon wlwt terms l can get ■
the medicine directly from you. If I can get !
it upon easy terms. I shall use a great deal of
it. I am aware that the use of such articles
is contrary to the teachings and practice ot‘ a
great majority of the regular line of M. D’s,
but i see no just cause or good sense in dis
carding a reinetfj which we know to be effi
cient, simplv because wo may be ignoiant of
-V.:.. „. ; .. V.. I cl, nil inabn
it ft rule to use nil and any means to alleviate
suffering humanity which 1 may bo aide.to
command—not hesitating because some one
more ingenious than myself may have learned
its effects first, and secured the sole right to
secure that knowledge. However, 1 am by
no titeAti* an advocate or supporter of the
thonsamls of worthless nostrum? that flood
the country, that purport to cure all manner
of disease to which human flesh I? heir.

TEXAS TONIC SYRUP!
A Vegetable Compound, for the Rapid and
Permanent Cure of
Chills nnd Fever, or Fever and
Ague. Dumb Ague. Intermit
tent and Remittent Fevers,
Jaundice and Enlargement
. ot the Spleen, or Ague
Cake.
Having had indubitable evidence of its
prompt and certain effects front the testimo
ny of a multitude of respectable oititens,
among whom are classed some of our best
phvsloiane, we do not hesitate to recommend
this Preparation in all eases of Fever and
Ague and Chills nnd Fever: indeed, from the
facts in our possession of its intrinsic value,
it would not be loo much for us to state that
when the directions arc strictly complied
with, we warrant a euro in every case where
it is tried. It is pleasant to the taste, and
the cheapest medicine in the world. There
fore. in truth, it may bo declared the day is
not far distant when it must be appreciated
sni it!-:'1 in every household where Fever aud
A no or Chills ah'1 Fever is found to exist.
The wonderful operation Cf the Texas Ton
ic Syrup in neutralising the effects cf mala
rious poison in (lie bumnn system, can only
explain its extraordinary agency in the
speedy, thorough and permanent cure of
Chills'and Fever or Fever and Ague, and all
I heir kin ired diseases, in whatever form of
Bilious Complaints they may make their ap
pears nee.
.'a i* name import,-, it is a Tonic cf rare
and medicinal virtues, composed or pure and
harmless Ingredients, and are so united <u$ to
form a compound alike skillful in art. beau
tiful in appearance, and can be taken with
safety to the most delicate constitutions. It
is tbe result of a lifetime of experience and
practice in a Southern climate, and was nev
er known to tail, even where all othe reme
dies had been tried in vain.
Those who are unacquainted with the ex
traordinary properties of this home produc
tion, manufactured from Roots and Plants
indigenous to tho soil of our “sunny South,”
(and hence adapted to tho cure of Southern
climatic disease*) are respectfully referred
to the certificates of respectable citizens
wUo«e names are embraced in a pamphlet
.which accompanies each bottle; also the en
dorsements of tho press in all tho Southern
States, indicating the many thousand cures
already periVrmed by our justly celebrated
Texas Tonic Syrup.
Tho reports from hundreds of Druggists,
Merchants and Dealers, from all parts of the
country, arc uniform in stating the medicine
is safe, certain and reliable, as a substitute
for Quinino and the poisonous compounds
heretofore generally sold, and is rapidly
supplanting everything of this class.
As a home enterprise it especially com
mends itself to tho people of this section of
the country, who are now struggling in an
effort torlu away with old prejudices in favor
of foreign produce, and may we not hope
foreign “Quack Nostrums,'' the proprietors
of which, in most case*, are -governed by no
thing but mercenary motives, know nothing
of the properties of Medicinal Agents,_and
care nothing for our interests, except to en
tice our people into the use of lh. ir vile
mixture#.

any other remedy affords.
