The hthor am! l'ooil (Question.
The lands of the South are naturally
as rich, in the element of fertility, as
those of the North. Wo have as much
rain, more sunlight and heat, and longer
growing seasons. Wo oug'ht, therefore,
it would seem, to be able to raise as much
food to the acre or hand, and to raise it as
cheaply as the Northern farmers, lfrnt.
sj far from this, we are buying flour,
meal, corn, hay, meat lard, cheese, butter,
potatoes, onions, etc., produced in the
North have been speculated upon two or
three times, transported a thousand miles
or more, and which in many instances, we
have to haul forty or fifty miles over the
most execrable roads.
farmers here are paying for labor every
cent they can afford, and yet they are
paying hut little more than half tho
average wages throughout the North and
West. Is it not. idle, then, to expect la
bor to come South where its price is much
lower, and the price of living much high
er than in the sections mentioned? Is
there not danger even of losing the labor
w« now have ?
Now, here is a cluster of anomalies,
which it may profit us to ponder over
awhile.
Southern Farmers produce crops, for
the most part, reijmring a great deal of
labor in their cultivation ami manipula
tion and partly on account of the nature
of those crops, make but little use of labor
saving implements; while Northern far
mers produce cr ips, which iu the main,
require comparatively little labor, aud
avail themselves to a considerable exteut
of labor-saving implements.—Southern
Cultivator.

The Cotton Supply.
Cotton cultivation would still be highly
remunerative and would furnish an ample
reward for the capital and labor expended,
even though prices should somewhat de
dine Preparations will soon be made
for next sowing season, and tho pre-ent
.tatc and prospects of the cotton market
should exert a powerful stimulus in every
direction. There is no doubt that this
will be the case in America and that year
by vear strenuous efforts will be made to
restore cotton to its former importance
among the products of the country
i Corresponding efforts, however, must be
made elsewhere, especially in India, and
without these there can be no successful
< competition with America, lhe progress
of events in the United States and any
advance made toward the recovery of the
! premineee in the production ot cotton
formerly enjoyed, must be of special
significance to India, and ought to prove
an incentive to fresh exertion. To im
prove the qualty of the cotton, to increase
lhe production, to open or remove all exis
ting obstacles to provide better rouds and
' ample means of irrigation, and, in short,
to make diligent use of all the appliances
which exist, in order to retain and in
! crease so valuable a trade, should be an
object of constant solicitude. Never has
1 so splendid an opportunity been presented
to any people, and though hitherto it has
I not been adequately appreciated, it still
! remains to be used by those who liaye the
; requisite wisdom and energy for the pur
pose. We hope that the new Governor
General, from the interest which ho has
already manifested, will he prepared and
able to exert a beneficial enflueuce in pro
moting ati extended and improved cultiva
tion of cotton in India, and we are fully
assured his desire is to do all that he
possibly can in this respect.—Cotton sup

other remedies have failed. It is purely veg
etable. aud no bad effects from ovci dosing
need be feared—buy one hot tie aud get cured.
Also, Hurley’s Worm Candy for children, is
the best aud most pleasant known ; any child
will take it. Hurley’s Bitters is the most
pleasant as well as the purest and best now

loss of appetite, cannot be equaled. Also,
for purifying the blood, mailing equals Hr.

Having had indubitable evidence of its

ny of a multitude of respectable citizens,
among whom are classed some of our best
physicians, we do not hesitate to recommend
tl»is Preparation in nil eases of Fever and
Ague and Chills and Fever: indeed, from the
facts in our possession of its intrinsic value,
it would not be tfro much for us to state that
when the directions are strictly complied
with, we warrant a cure in every case where
ii, i« tried. It is pleasant to the taste, and
the cheapen!. medicine in i!“* world. There
fore*, in truth, it may be declared Ihe day is
not fur distant when it must bo appreciated
awl used in every household where Fever and
Ague or Chills and Fever is found to exist.
The wonderful operation of the Texas Ton
ic Syrup in neutralizing the effects of mala
rious poison in the human system, can only
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 in ay make tin ir ap

As its name imports, it is a Tonic Of rare
ami medicinal virtues, composed of pure and
harmless ingredients, and are so united as to
form a compound alike skillful in art' beau
tiful iu 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

tion, manufactured from Hoots and Plants
indigenous to the soil of our “sunny South,”
(and hence adapted to the cure of Southern

which accompanies cuh bottle; also the en
dorsements of the press in all the {touthern
States, indicating the many thousand cures
already performed by our }ustiy celebrated
Texas Tonic Syrup.
The reports from hundreds of Druggists,
Merchants and Deal. . from all parts of the
country, are uniform in stating the uiediciuc
Is cafe, certain and reliable, as a substitute
for Quinine 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 the people of this section ot
the country, who arc now struggling in an
effort to do away with old prejudices iu favor
of foreign produce, and may we not. hope
foreign “Quack Nostrums.” the proprietors
of which, in most cases, are governed by no
thing but mercenary motives, know nothing
of the properties of Medicinal Agents, ami
care nothing for our interests, except to en
tice our people into the use of their vile
mixture1'.
The Texas Tonic Syrup is packed in cases
of two dozen.
Dealers supplied upon better terms than
any other remedy affords.
