The Wickedest General.
Charlotte, N. C. Oct. 13, 1868
I tec by the public prints that Gen.
Kilpatrick has decorated ute with his disap
probation before the people of Pennsyl
vania. He informs them, substantially,
that he tamed me by capturing me and
riding me two hundred miles cm a bare
j back mule. I will do tbe gentlemen the
justice to say that he knew that was a lie
when he uttered it. I surrendered to
Gen. Schofield, at Greensboro, N 0., on
! the 2d yf May, 1805. who told me to go
! to my home and remain there, saying, it
i lie gut any orders to arrest tue, he would
'■ send there- for me.
Accordingly, 1 was srrested on the 18th
| of May, at home, by a detachment of 300
I cavalry under Maj. Porter, of Harrisburg.
1 of whom 1 received nothing hut kindness
sod courtesy. 1 came in a buggy toSalis
I l»ury, where wo took the cars. 1 saw no
i mule, though 1 thought 1 saw an ass at
1 the general's headquarters This iuipres
i sion has been since confirmed.
• The general no doubt remembers,
1 among other incidents of the war, the
| dressing up of a strumpet—who assisted
him III putting churn tnt rebellion—in the
I uniform of an orderly, and introducing her
j into a respectable family of ladies in a cer
i tain village til North Carolina This, and
! other feats of twin and strategy so credits
I hie to the uniform he wore and the flag
under which he served, would, no doubt,
have been qu.te as amusing as tlie mule
story to his hearers. 1 wouder he forgot
it.

Special Notice*
We wish to call the special attention of our
friends to the advertisement headed Hur
ley’s Ague Tonic. This is the best remedy
known for Chills, Fever and interenittents in
| any form; now is the season for this dis
j tri ssing complaint. It has never been knowu
iu tail id eueei a cure, uu muuvi v» *«*•£
standing, if used by directions, where all
other remedies have failed. It is purely veg
viable, aud no bad effects from over dosing
need be feared—buy one bottle anil get cured.
Also, Hurley’s Worm Candy for children, is
the best and most pleasaut known ; any child
will take it. Hurley’s Bitters is the most
pleasant as well as the purest and best now
known or offered for sale; and 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 is war
ranted the best and safest remedy known, or
the money refunded—price 25ot». per bottle.
Also, his Elixir of Iron and Bark, ospeoially
for females it i* one of best Tonics known,
and pleasant and easily taken ; not lik*r other
remedies of the kiud, it docs not sicken or
nauseate. If you need any of the above
remedies try them, as we fee? 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

why the STAIl MACHINE should be prefer

1. Their great simplicity.
2. It is impossible for there to get out of

3. They are of great capacity, and will

4. They have an adjustable press or foot
to hold the work; aud they sew equally well
the lightest aud heaviest fabrics.
6. They will sew over the heaviest seams
without changing the tension or breaking the

6. They use a straight needle—curved onee

7. The* needle has a perpendicular motion.
This is absolutely necessary for heavy work
8. They run easily, and are almost noise

BULL’S
WORM DESTROYER.
To my United Sia'es 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
t»*r 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:
Vill'now, Wat-Kcn County, Ga., )
June iBb 18GG. j
Dr. John Bull—Dear S»r: I have recent
ly given your “Worm Destroyer” several
trials, and find it wonderfully efficacious. It
has no* failed in a Mtigle instance to have the
country practice, anti have daily use for some
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 aie un
ccrteain in the exij'cme. My object in writ
ing you is to find upon what terms 1 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 of*a
great majority of the rryuiar line of M. 1) s.
but 1 see nojust cause or good sense in dis
carding a remedy which '*c know to be eft!
cient. simply because wo may be ignorant of
its combination. For my part, 1 shall make
it a rule to use all and auy means to alleviate
suffering humanity which I niay be able to
command—not hesitating because some one
more ingot ioua than my self may have learned
its effects first, and secured the sole right to
secure that knowledge. However, 1 am by
no men as au 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.
IMea-e reply soon, and inform tne of your
best terms, lam. sir. misi respectfully,

CIUI-LSl A f'BVER.
The proprietor of this celebrated medtcin
justly claims for it a superiority over all
remedies ever offered to the public* for the
safe, certain, speedy, and permanent cure ot
Ague and Fever, or Chills and Fever, wheHier
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 caao whatever will it fail
to cure, if the directions arc strictly followed
and carried out. In a great many oases 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, prudeut, and in
every case more certain to cure, if its use is
coutinuod in smaller doses tor a week or two
after the disease Las 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 taken three or four
dosea of the Tonic, a single doae of BULL'S
VEGETABLE FAMILY PILLS will be suffi
cient.

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
ami medicinal virtues, composed of pure and j
harmless ingredients, and are so uuited as to j
form a compound a ike 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 Roots and Plants
indigenous to the soil of our “sunny South,”
(and hence adapted to the cure of Southern
climatic diseases) are respectfully referred j
to the certificates of respectable citizens |
whose names are embraced in a pamphlet j
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, front 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 suction of
the country, who are now struggling in an
effort to do away with old prejudices in favor
of foreign product, and may we not hope
foreign “Quack Nostrums,” the proprietors
of which, in most eases, 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 iuto the use of their Tile
mixtures.
The Texas Tonic Syrup is packed in oases
of t wo dozen.
Dealers supplied upon better terms than
any other remedy affords.
