Quinine Produces Blindness!—
There arc many cases on record where
total blindness lias been produced by
Quinine—also many cases of deafness.
It is indeed a dangerous medicine to
meddle with and should never be taken
axeept when prescribed by sonic regu
lar physician. We. are quite happy to
hear that many of the physicians have
abandoned the use of it in Ague since
the discovery of Mansfield & Higher Y
Texas Tonic Syrup, or Antidote to Ma
laria, which we are happy to say lias
performed some remarkable cures in
our city during the past month, in fact
wc have heard of no case wherein it
has failed.

i A Supposed Suicide—A Young
Man I'll ken Suddenly III—Ilia
Ueulh and Former HUIory.
Norman I,. Barber is dead. He was.
daring the past iwo years, and until
about two weeks ago, a bar-tender at
I the Krnnard. Having contracted hab
! its that were not suited to the business,
I l>e was discharged. The discharge,
; however, was not on account of his
I love for strong drink. Ife was ac
counted a sober young man, ami was
very handsome and pleasing in his
manner. After being discharged, lie
borrowed money from a number of
friends, expecting to pay it when lie
secured another situation. Being de- ’
feated in his plans at the Weddell
House, with doe Murcli and at other
places, lie became disconsolate to such :
an extent that liis acquaintances marked
the change at first sight, on Friday.
He wandered about the streets ail day,
bringing up at tlie Kcnnard House in
the evening, where lie remained until
eleven o’clock, in deep meditation.
He then went to No. 118 Bolivar street,
hig boarding-house, where his room
mate, during the night, discovered him
breathing very hard and sent for Dr. J
Smurr. He continued to grow worse
and worse, until 8 :15 a. m. to-dav, when
he died. He was twenty-three years
of age, and iiis friends live at Cazeno
via, N. Y. The deceased never com
plained of ill health, heart disease, or
any thing of that kind, which gives
some ground for the supposition that
lie committed suicide.—Cleveland (O.)
Plaindealer, Nor. 11th.
Southerner* In New York.
The New York correspondent of the
Mobile llegister gives the following in
a recent letter:
I have seen it stated in print that
Southronism (if I may coin a word) lias
almost disappeared from this city.
The statement is not in any respect
true. There is more of it than ever be
fore. There is hardly a trade or pro
fession in which a large number of
Southern men are not engaged, and
most of these have come North since
the war. They are found at the- bar, on
the press, practicing medicine, in edu
cational institutions, engaged in mer
cantile pursuits, in banks and insurance
offices, employed as clerks in wholesale ,
stores, and, in fact, following every bu
siness on the lousr list of avocations in
New York. Then there are large and
constantly increasing social circles,
composed almost exclusively of South
eni men ami women, large ana tasnioti
able boarding houses, where one meets
hardly any but Southern people, a
church attended by Southern people
only, and two hotels known by every
one to lie patronized almost solely by
Southerners. Instead of being on the
decline in New York. Southern influ
ence is constantly increasing. It per
meates the whole business circle, is
found in the best society, and is almost
brushed against by every sauuterer on
Broadway. No doubt this is very an
noying to the “loyal" element, but I
don't see bow that element is going to
get rid of it.
Elopement Extraorotwary.—.Tames
McKee, employed by Thomas M. Ilowe
as a clerk at the Head-of-the-Lake

Owasco Lake, they having taken flight
in a rowboat. He finally came up with
them at (ienoa last, night (Wednesday),
and found they bad been married and
just retired. Proceeding to their room,
he arrested McKee on a warrant for as
sault and battery, which had been
served out previous to the elopement,
lie was taken to Moravia Thursday

her disappearance.—Auburn Advert!- I

Stony Poin:. White Co., Ark.. May 28, ’Oft.
I)u. John Boll—Dear Sir: Last February
I was in Louisville purchasing drugs, and I
got some of your Sarsaparilla and Ccdron
Bitters.
My son-in-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 in 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. I
think 1 could sell a great quantity of your
medicines this fall—especially of your Ced
ron Bitters and Sarsaparilla, Ship me via

WORM DESTROYER.
To my United .State* and World
wide Jteader*.
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:
~ Villanow, Walker County, Ga., >
</uue fci’, icuu, )
Dr. John Bull—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. 1 am free to confess that
1 know of no remedy recommended by the
ablest authors that is so certain and speedy
in its effects. On the contrary they arc 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, 1 shall use a great deal of
it. 1 am 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 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 1 may be able 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, I am by
no means an advocate or supporter of the
ihousandsof worthless nostrums that flood
he country, that purport to cure all manner
>f disease to which human flesh is heir,
[’lease reply soon, and inform me of your
jest terms. 1 am. sir, most respectfully,

nd carried out. In a great many cases a
ingle dose has been sufficient for a cure, and
rhole families have been cured by a single
ottlc. With a perfect restoration of the gen
ral health. It is, however, prudent, aud in
very case more eertaiu to cure, if its use is
ontinued in smaller doses for a week or two
fter the disease lias been checked, more es
eoially in difficult aud long-standing cases,
dually, this medicine will not require any

TEXAS TONIC SYRUP!:
I A Vegetable Compound, for the Rapid and j
j Permanent Cure of
-
i Chill* and Fever, or Fever and
Ague, Oumb Ague, Intermit
lenf and Remittent Fever*,
Jaundice and Enlargement
or the Spleen, or Ague
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 some of our best
physicians, we do not hesitate to recommend
this Preparation in ail 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
when the directions are 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 tl»e 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 iu 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 imports, it is a Tonic of rare
and medicinal virtues, composed of pure and i
harmless ingredients, and are so united as to
form a compound alike skillful in art, beau- ;
tifill in appearance, and can be taken with j
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 othc reme
dies had been tried in vain.
Those who are unacquainted with the ex- j
traordinary properties of this home prodtic- j
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
to the certificates of respectable citizens
whose names are embraced iu 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 aud 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 of]
the country, who arc now struggling in an j
effort to do away with old prejudices in favor ,
of foreign produce, and may wo nut hope j
foreign ••Quack Nostrums,’’ the proprietors I
of which, in most cases, arc governed by no- j
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 their vile
mixtures.
The Texas Tonic Syrup is packed iu cases
of t wo dozen.
Dealers supplied upon better terms than
any other remedy affords.
