Druggists, Memphis, Tennesse:
Gentlemen—You ask mo for my
statement relative to your cure for
Frvsipelas or Charbone In Horses ami
Mules, which you style “Magic Arnica
I.ixamf.nt.’’ I have used your Lina
nient in about two dozen eases with
perfect success, t had lost all hope of
a remedy, but believe your discovery
'•the remedy.” I have not failed in a :
single case in which I have applied ,
your Liuumcnt. 1 believe it a valuable
discovery. Think every planter should
provide himself with the Magic Arnica
1.inament. No planter should be with
out vour remedy where this terrible
disease prevails. I have supplied each
of my plantations. My supervisors
report favorable upon every trial.
Very respectfully, yours, etc..

The gentle Anna is one of the ablest |

the Itadlcal party. She has done good i
servjoe for the party iu times past. !

Grant. Anna spoke ut Elmira, Now

She warned and threatened in her1

The Radical party cannot live on the j
memory of its good deeds.
Your works in the past wou't savo ,
YOU.
You Radicals shirk the unpopular
necessity of putting the black race for- j
ward.
You want to cover the negro with
Grant.
Unless you give the Northern negro
the ballot you won’t get the support ot
the negro South.
It is not sufficient that Grant was a
soldier. McClellan w as a soldier—FiU
John Porter was a soldier. It is not
sufficient to write against any man's
name—soldier.
ity nominating Grant you show your
selves cowards and poltroons.
Grant is no standard-bearer when

You want Grant without a platform
for the sake of expediency and winning

DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.
The Democratic party in national convcn
ion assembled, reposing its trust in the in
elligence, patriotism and discriminating jns
ice of the people, standing upon theConsti
ution as the foundation and limitation of the
lowers of the Government and the guarantee
>f the liberties of the citizen, and recogniz
ing the questions of slavery and secession as
lattng been settled for all time to come by
he war or the voluntary action of theSouth
•rn States in constitutional convention as
lembled, and never to be renewed orreagita
cd, do, with tbo return of peace, demand—
1st. rmtnediate restoration of all the States
o their rights in the Union under the Con
ititution, and of civil government to the
\merican people.
2d. The amnesty for all the past political
iffenses and the regulation of the elective
Yanchise iu the States by their citizens; the
payment of the jtablio debt of the United
States as rapidly as practicable.
3d. All the money drawn from the people I
tiy taxation, except so much as is requisite
for the necessities of the Government, econ
omically administered, being honestly ap
plied to such payment, and where the obliga
tions of the Government do not expressly
»tate upon their fnce, or the law under which
ihey were issued does not provide that they
shall be paid in coin, they ought in right and
justice be paid in the lawful money of the
United States.
4th. Equal taxation of every species of pro
perty according to its real value, including
Uovcrnmeut bonds and other public securi
ties.
5th. One currency for the Government and
the people, tbo laborer and the office-holders,
the producer and the bond-holder.
l»th. Economy in the admin is tration of the
Government; the reduction of the standing
army and navy; the abolition of the freed
meu’s bureau, and all political instrumentali
ties designed to secure negro supremacy;
simplification of the system, and discontinu
ance of iuquisitorial boards of assessing and
collecting the internal revenue, so that the
burden of taxation may be equalized and
lessened and the credit of the Government
and the currency made good; the repeal of
all enactments for enrolling the State militia
into the national forces in time of peace; a
tariff for revenue upon foreign imports, and
such equal taxation under the internal reve
nue laws as will afford incidental protection
to domestic manufactures, and will, without
impairing the revenue, impose the least bur
den upon and best promote and cnoourage
the great industrial interests of the country.
7th. Reform of abuses in administration;
the expulsion of corrupt men from office; tlie
abrogation of useless offices; the restoration
of rightful authority to, and the independ
_ .. e .i _.... .• . _ i * ll .1_a
''***''' V-VV-...V - J-- “'•X
inents of the Government; the subordination
of the military to the civil power, to the end
that the usurpations of Congress and the
despotism of the sword may cease.
8th. Equal rights and protection for natu
ralized aud native-born citizens at home and
abroad. The assertion of American nation
ality which shall command the respect of
foreign powers, furnish an example and en
couragement to the people struggling for na
tional integrity, constitutional liberty and
undived rights, and the maiutainancc of the
rights of naturalized citizens against the ab
solute doctrine of immutable allegiance and
the claims of foreign powers to punish them
for alleged crime committed beyond their ju
risdiction.
In demanding these measures aud reforms
we arraign the Radical party for—
Its disregard of right and the unparalleled
oppression and tyranny which have marked
its career after the most solemn and unani
mous pledge of both houses of Congress to
prosecute the war exclusively for the main*
tninance of the Gouei umcnt and the preser
vation of the Union under the Constitution.
It has repeatedly violated the most sacred
pledge unucr which was rallied that noble
volunteer army which carried our tlag to
victory.
lnsttiul of restoring the Union, it has, so
far as in its power, dissolved it, and subject
ed ten /States in time of profound peace, to
military despotism and negro supremacy.
It has nullified there the right of trial by
jury.
It has abolished the habeas corpus, that
most sacred writ of liberty.
It has overthrown the freedom of speech
and the press.
It has Mibstituted arbitrary seizures ami
arrests, and military trials and star chamber
inquisitions for constitutional tribunals.
It has disregarded in time of peace the
right of the people to be free from search and
seizure.
It has entered the post<>(frees and telegraph
offices, aud even the private rooms of indi
viduals, and seized their private papers and
letters without any specification or notice of
affidavit, as required by the organic law.
It has converted the American capital into
a bastile.
It has established a system of spies and of
ficial espionage to which no monarchy of Eu
rope would now dare to resort.
It has abolished the right of appeal on im
portant constitutional questions to the su
preme judicial tribunals, and threatens to
control or destroy its original jurisdiction,
which is irrevocably vested by the constitu
tion, while the learned Chief Justice has been
subjected to groat and atrocious calumnies,
merely because lie would not prostitute his
high office to the support of the false and
partisan charges preferred against the Pres
ident.
Its corruption aud extravagance have ex
ceeded anything known in history by its
friends and monopolies.
It has nearly doubled the burden of debt
created during tho war.
It has stripped the President of his consti
tutional power of appointment, even of his
own cabinet.
Under its repeated assaults the pillars of
the Government are rocking on their base,
and, should it succeed in November next aud
inaugurate its President, we will meet as a
subjugated and conquered people amid the
ruins of liberty and the scattered fragments
of the Constitution.
And we do declare and resolve:
That, ever since the people of the United
States threw off all subjection to the British
crown, the privilege and trust of suffrage
have belonged to the several States, and have
been granted, regulated and controlled ex
clusively by the political power of each State,
respectively, aud any attempt by Congress,
on any pretext whatever, to deprive any State
of this right, or to interfere with this exor
cise, is a flagrant usurpation of power which
can find no warrant in the Constitution, and
if sanctioned by the people, win suoveri our
form of government, and can only end in a
single, centralised, consolidated government,
in which the separate existence of the States
w»U be entirely absorbed aud an unqualified
despotism be established in the place of a
Federal Union of equal States.
That we regard the reconstruction acts of
Congress, so-called, aud such usurpations, as
unconstitutional, revolutionary and void, and
that our soldiers aud sailors who carried the
flag of our country to victory, against a most
gallaut and determined foe, must ever be
gratefully remembered, and all the guar an
tees given in their favor must be faithfully
carried into execution.
That the public lands should be distributed
uh widely umoug the people and should be
disposed of, either under the pre-emption of
homestead lauds, and sold in reasonable
quantities, aud to none but actual occupants
at the minimum price, as established by the
Government. When grants of the public
lands may be allowed uecessary for the en
couragement of important public improve
ments, the proceeds of the sale of such lands,
and not the lands themselves, should "Tie so
applied.
That the President of the United States,
Andrew Johnson, in exercising the power of
his high office in resisting the aggressions ol
Congress on *ho Constitutional rights of the
Slates aud the people, is entitled to the grat
itude of the whole American people, aud on
behalf of the Democratic pnrty we tender him
our thanks for his patriotic efforts in that
regard.
Upon this platform the Dcttoortfio parly
appeals to every patriot, including all the
conservative element, and all who desire If
support the Constitution and restoro the I n
Inn, forgetting all past differences of opinion,
to unite with us in the present great struggle
for the liberties of the people, and that to all
such, to whatever party they may have he,
longed heretofore, we extend the right hand
of fellowship, and hail all such co-operating
with us as friends and brothers.

Dn. John Dull: 1 frond you $H0 for Oku
i uon Hitters; please send what it will come j
to after paying freight to Columbus, Miss.
I have been troubled for several years with 1
indigestion; have had to take pills every |
night for ten or fifteen years, and in Fobrua- ,
iy, 180-1, I was attacked with general paraty- 1
sis. 1 was oonfined to my room for the bal- j
anco of the year; arid, in fact, continued in a
very weak and nervous condition until sonic
two months since, when I was put under an
operation, and your Ckdros Bitters for
treatment. I commenced improving right :
away, and am pretty well restored.
Yours .truly,
A. L. NEAL.
Special Notice.
We wish to call the.attention of our readers
to the column adverthicnient headed “Purify j
Your Blood,” to all the articles mentioned in
it. All thoso afflicted by disease, or who have
l friends suffering from sickness, should care- i
; fully read, and we know they will derive prn
| fit from it. It gives us much pleasure to he
j able in this manner to recommend to ourpeo- j
| pie these remedies, as years of trial show ;
| they fully deserve. Dr. Thos. A. Hurley’s '
I Sarsaparilla, the Great Blood Purifier, nee.Is
only to be tried to be fully appreciated. His
Bitters, (Hurley’s,) are the best and purest j
now offered for sale. For debility and loss of
appetite no others ought to be used. Hurley's i
Ague Tonic is harmless in its effect and never j
; fails to euro if used by directions. Try it. t
j Also his Worm Candy, (Hurley's,) cannot be
| equalled; any child will take it. So it is with
Dr. Seabrook's Soothing Syrup, the best and
safest now offered, as no bad effects ever oc
cur from using it. Mothers try one bottle,
aud in future you will get no other. Also
Dr. Seabrook's Elixir of Pyrophosphate of
iron and Calasaya; also Dr. Hettisons Eng. .
Horse Liniment, and James Huddle & Cos’ j
Ext. Jam, Ginger. All the above remedies
are unequalled; we cannot understand why
their remedies might not as well be taken in j
the special diseases for which they are recom j
mended, with ns much confidence as the pro- |
scriptiou of a regular physician.’

Chill* anil Fever, or Fever and
Ague, Dumb Ague, Intermit

Jaundice and Enlargement

Cake.
Having had indubitable evidence of its
prompt and certain effects from the testimo
ny of a multitude of respectable citizens,
among whom are classed pome of our best
physicians, we do not hesitato to recommend
this Preparation in all cases of Fever and
Ague and Chills and Fever: indeed, from the
facts in our possession of its intrinsic value,
it would not be too much for us to state that
wliAO llid ilil'iw,! i.tllB nro uirirttlv rtoinnl ieil
with, wo warrant, a cure in every ease where
it is tried. It is pleasant to the tnjto, and
the cheapest medicine in the world. There
fore, in truth, it may be declared the day is
not far distant when it must be appreciated
and 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 may make their ap
pearance.
As its name impovts. it is a Tonic of rare
and medicinal virtues, composed of pure and
harmless ingredients, and are so united as to
form a compound alike skillful in art, beau
tiful in appearance, and can be taken with
safely to the most delicate constitutions. It
is the result of a lifetime of experience and
practice in a .Southern climate, ami was nev
er known to fail, even where all othe reme
dies had been tried iu vain.
Those who are unacquainted with the ex
traordinary pro pert ie* of this home produc
tion, manufactured from Roots and Plants
indigenous to the soil of our “sunny South,”
(and hence adapted to the cure of Southern
climafic disease?) ate respectfully referred
to tho certificates of respectable citizens
whose names are embraced in a pamphlet
which accompanies each bottle; tils*) the en

heretofore generally ^old, and is rapidly
supplanting everything of this class.
As a home enterprise it espeopilly com
mends itself to the people of this section of
the country, who are now struggling in an
effort to do away with <• l prejudices iu favor
of foreign produce, and may we not hopo
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, and
care nothing lor our interests, except to en
tice our people into the use of their vile
mixtures.

TESTIMONY OF MEDICAL MEN.
Stony Point, White Co., Ark.. May 23, ’GG.
Dr. John Bull—Dear Sir: Last February
I was in Louisville purchasing drugs, and 1
got some of your Sarsaparilla and Ccdron
Bitters.
My ^on-tn-law who was with me in the
store, has been down with rheumatism for
some time, commenced on the Bitters, and
soon found his general health improved.
Dr. Gist, who has been in bad health, tried
them, and he also improved.
Dr. Coffee, who has been iu bad health for
several years—stomach and liver affected—he
improved very much by the use of your Bit
ters. Indeed the Ccdron Bitters has given
you great popularity in this settlement. T
think I could sell a great quantity of your
medicines this fall—especially of your Ced
ron Bitters and Sarsaparilla, Ship me via
Memphis, care of Riokett & Neely.
Respectfully,
C. B. WALKER.
BULL’S
WORM DESTROYER.
To my United .states 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 l 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:
Villanow, Walker County, Ga., 1
I)r. John Bi ll—Dear Sir: I have recent
ly given your ‘-Worm Destroyer” several
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
l*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 extreme. My object in writ
ing you is to find upon what terms 1 can get
the medicine directly from you. If 1 can get
it upon easy terms, I shall use a great deal of
it. I ani aware that the use of such articles
is contrary to the teachings and practice of a
great majority of the regular line of M. D.’s,
but I see no just cause or good sense in dis
carding a remedy which wo know to be effi
cient, simply because wo may be ignorant of
its combination. For my part, 1 shall make
it a rule to use all and any means to alleviate
suffering humanity which l may be able to
command—not hesitating because some one
move ingenious than myself may have learned
its effects first, and secured tlie sole right to
secure that knowledge. However. 1 am by
no means an advocate or supporter of the
thousands of worthless nostrums that Hood
the country, that purport to cure all manner
of disease to which human flesh is heir.
I’lea-e reply soon, and inform me of your
best terms. I am, sir, most respectfully,

Benton Barracks, Mo., April 80, 1800.
Dr. John Bull—Dear Sir: Knowing the
efficiency of your Sarsaparilla, and the heal
ing and beneficial qualities it possesses, I
send you the following statement of my case.
I was wounded about two years ago—was
taken prisoner and confined for sixteeu
months. Being moved so often, my wounds
have not healed yet. I have not sat up a
moment since l was wounded. I am shot
through the hips. My general health is im
paired, and I need something to assist na
ture. I have more faith iti your Sarsaparilla
than any thing else. I wish that that is gen
uine. Please express me half adozen bottles,
and oblige
Capt. C. P. JOHNSON,
St. Louis. Mo.
P. S.—The following was written April 80.
1865, by Mrs Jennie Johnson, mother of
Capt. Johnson.
1>r. Bull—Dear Sir: My husband, Dr. C.
S. Johnson, was a skillful surgeon and physi
cian in Central New York, where he died,
leaving the above C. P. Johnson to my care.
At thirteen yeay- of age he had a chronic di
arrhea and scrofula, for which 1 gave him
your Sarsaparilla. It Cured Him. I have
for ten years recommended it to many in
Now York, Ohio, and Iowa, for scrofula, fe
ver sores, ami general debility. Perfect suc
cess has attended it. The cures effected in
some cases of scrofula and fever sores were, af-nast
miraculous. I am very anxious for my son
to again have recourse to your sarsaparilla.
He is fearful of getting a spurious article,
hence his writing to you for it. Hus wounds
were terrible, but I believe lie will recover.
Respectfully,
JENNIE JOHNSON.

CHILLS &. FEVER.
The proprietor of this celebrated medicine
justly claims for it a superiority over all
remedies ever offered to the public for the
safe, certain, speedy, and permanent euro 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
wholo 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
continued ir smaller doses for a week or two
after the disease has been checked, more es
pecially in difficult and long-standing cases.
Usually, this medicine will not require any
aid to keep the bowels in good order; should
the patient, however, require a cathartic
medicine, after having t^ken three or/four
do>» - of the Tonic, a single dose of BULL'S
VEGETABLE FAMILY 1'ILLS will be suffi
cient.

OF ail the remedies that hare been discov

ills »hat Doth is heir to.” none equal this won- i
•lerful preparation. Only ten yenrs have i
elapsed since the discoverer, (who spent a
decade in studying experiments, and perfect
ing it.) first introduced it, »o the public, and
it is already recognized by the most eminent
physicians in all parts of the country to be
the most surprising and effective remedy for
certain diseases of' which they have knowl
edge.
All other Compound? or Syrups of this root
have hitherto failed to command the sanction
of the Faculty, because, on being tested, they
have been found to contain noxious ingredW
ents, which neutralize the good effects of the
Sarsaparilla, and oftentimes injure the health
of the patient. It is not so with Hurley’s
preparation.
This is the pure and genuine extract of the
root and will, on trial, be found to effect a
certain and perfect cure of the following com
plaints and diseases:
