p&~ We are highly gratified to pub
lish a notice of special school meeting
in this district. It is very commenda
ble, nnd everybody should fed and
take an active interest in a matter of so
much importance to the country. We
arc much in need of public schools—
many children arc deprived ot the
means of education, and when this sys
tem of common schools is put in ope
ration it will he in the reach of every
one. The law requires a public school
taught three months in the year, and
it requires the trustee to cull together
the legal voters of the district to select
site and vote tax for t he purpose of
building bouse and employing teacher.
Many of the districts have already put
their public schools in operation, and
we are satisfied this district will take
an interest aiul attend the school meet
ing. nnd vote the necessary tax to
build a respectable school house—one
that will answer for years to come.

to after paying freight to Columbus, Miss.
I have been troubled for several years w ith
indigestion; have bad to take pill® every
night for ton or fifteen years, and in Februa
ry, 1864, l was attacked with general paraly
! sis. 1 was con fined to my room for the bal
ance of the year; and, in fact, continued in a
very weak and nervous condition until some
two months since, when 1 was put under an

away, and am pretty well restored.
Yours truly,
A. L. NEAL.
Special Notice*
We wish to call the special attention of onr
! friends to the advertisement headed Hi n
! ley's Ague Tonic. This is the best remedy
| known for Chills, Fever and interm it tents in
any form : now is the season for this dis
! trussing complaint. It has never been kuown
to fail to effect a cure, no matter of how long
standing, if used by directions, where all
other remedies have failed. It is purely veg
etable. and no bad effects from over dosing
i need be feared—buy one bottle and get cured.
Also, Hurley’s Worm Cuudy for children, is
the best and most pleasant known : any child
will take it. Hurley’s Bitters is the most
pleasant as well as the purest and best now
kuown or offered for sale; anti for debility,
loss of appetite, cannot be equaled. Also,
for purifying the blood, nothing equals Dr.
Hurley's Comp. Syrup of Sarsaparilla, this
is the genuine extract of the root. Dr. Sea
brooks Soothing Syrup for children ia war
ranted the best and safest remedy known, or
the money refunded—price 26eta. per bottle.
Also, his Elixir of Iron and Bark, especially
for females it is one of the best Tonies known,
and pleasant and easily taken ; not like other
remedies of the kind, it does not sicken or
nauseate. If you need any of the above
remedies try them, as we feel confident they
will do all we claim for them ; they are gotten
up by men of experience and good chemists,
who know their business and are reliable and
honest.

I was in Louisvill* purchasing drugs, and I
got some of your Sarsaparilla and Cedron
Bitter*.
My son-in-law who was with me in the
store, has been down with rheumatism for
some time, commenced on the Bitter*, and
soon found his general health improved.
Dr. Gist, who lias been in bad health, tried
them, and he also improved.
Dr. Coffee, who hns been in bad health for
several years—stomach and liver affected—he
improved very much by the use of your Bit
ters. Indeed the Cedron Bitters has given
you great popularity in this settlement, I
think l could sell a great quantity of your
medicines this fall—especially of your Ced

BULL’S
WORM DESTROYER.
To my railed Slate* and World
wide Readers.
I have received many testimonials from
professional and medical men, as my alma
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
sensible communications 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:
V ill a now, Walker County, Ga., \
June 29, 1800. j
Dr. John Bull -—Dear Sir: 1 have recent

trials, and find it wonderfully efficacious. It
has not failed in a single instance to have the
wished-for effect. I am doing a pretty large
country practice, and have daily use for some
article of the kind. I am free to confess 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
certeain in the I'xlreme. My object in writ
ing you is to find upon what terms I can get
thp medicine directly from you. If I can. get
it upon easy terms, l shall use a great deal of

great majority of the regular line of M. D.’s,
but 1 see no just cause or good sense in dis
carding a remedy which we know to be effi
cient, simply because we may be ignorant of
its combination. For my part, I shall make
it a rule to use all and any means to alleviate
suffering humanity which I may be able to
command—not hesitating because some one
more ingenious than myself may have learned
its effects first, and secured the solo right to
secure that knowledge. However, I am by
no means an advocate or supporter of the
thousands of worthless nostrums that flood
the country, that purport to cure all manner
of disease to which human flesh is heir,

The proprietor of this celebrated modicin
jnstly claims for it a superiority over all
remedies over offered to the public for the
tafe., certain, tpeedy. and permanent cure of
Ague and Fever, or Chills and Fever, whether
of short or long standing. He refers to the
entire Western and South-western country
to bear him testimony to the truth of the as
sertion, that in no case whatever will it fail
to cure, if the directions are strictly followed
and carried out. In a great many cases a
single dose has been sufficient for a cure, and
whole families have been cured by a single
bottle, With a perfect restoration of the gen
eral health. It is, however, prudent, and in
every case more certain to cure, if its use is
I continued in smaller doses for a week or two
after the disease has been checked, more es
pecially in difficult and long-standing cases.
Usually, tfiis medicine will not require any
aid to keep the bowels iu good order ; should
the patient, however, require a cathartic
medicine, after having taken three or four
doses of the Tonic, a single dose of BULL S
VEGETABLE FAMILY PILLS will be suffi
, cient.

Having bad indubitable evidence of its
prompt nnd certain effects from the testimo
ny of a multitude of respectable citizens,
among whom arc classed some of our best
physicians, we do not hesitate to recommend
this Preparation in all cases of Fever ami
Ague and Chills ami Fever: indeed, from the
facts in our possession of its intrinsic value,
it would not be tod much for us to slate that
when the directions arc strictly complied
with, wc warrant a cure in every case where
it is tried, it is pleasant to tlie taste, and
the cheapest medicine in the world. There
fore, in truth, it may be declared the day is
not far distant wlieu it must be appreciated
and used in every household where Fever autl
Ague or Chills and Fever is found to exist.
Tl.n wstn.Lti'fnl nnprftl inn of the TexilS Ton

explain its extraordinary agency in the
speedy, thorough and permanent cure of
Chills and Fever or Fever and Ague, and all
their kindred diseases, in whatever form of
Bilious Complaints they may make their ap
pearance.
As its name imports, it is a Tonic of rare
and medicinal virtues, composed of pure ami
harmless ingredients, and are so united as 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 the result of a lifetime of experience and
practice in a Southern climate, and was nev
er known to fail, 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 Boots and Plants
indigenous to the soil of our “sunny South,”
(and hence adapted to the cure of Southern
climatic diseases) are respectfully referred
1 to the certificates of respectable citizens
whose names are embraced in a pamphlet
which accompanies each bottle; also the en
dorsements of the press in all the Southern
States, indicating the many thousand cures
already performed by our justly celebrated
Texas Tonic Syrup.
The reports from hundreds of Druggists,
Merchants and Dealers, from all^parts of the
country, are uniform in stating the medicine
is safe* certain and reliable, as a substitute
for Quinine and the poisonous compounds
heretofore generally sold, and is rapidly
: supplanting everything of this class.
