Tonic Syrup!
A rapid and never Ailing core for
Fever A Ague, or Chills A Fever.
Every peiaon lias ita antidota—Every
disease has ita cure.
It is a kpown fact that the powerful mltier
>il medicines so often administered in eopioue
doses in Intermittent and Rillious Remittent
Fevers are as perilous to the constitution as
tho fevers themselves, while tbeir operation
is generally slow and upcertain, and.their ef
fects evanecsent. Remedies of this class,
hazardiotis under any circumstances, cannot
be used with yiy approacli to safety except
under the directions of a physician ; and in
the regions where Fever and Ague, RilHoue
Fever, Chill and Fever, Dumb Ague and their
kindred complaints chiefly prevail, medieal
men are eometimee few aud far between, and
medical adviee almost unobtainable. It is
obvious, therefore, that a medicine like the
Texas Tonic 1!yrap, prompt ond cer
tain in its action as a curative, and equally
to be relied on as a preventive, of these dan
gerous maladies—a preparation ae harmless
to the constitution asVraler—puist be of price
less yalue in the valley of the Mississippi, or
wherever else they may exist.
The common cause of all remittent and
intermittent fevers rs the mephitic vapor or
miasma evaporated by heat from the sell, or
from the surtace of etagnaoit water : and it is
usually when the torrid warmth oT summer
has frostraicd thesystetn and rendered it
incapable of Cputeflding enet*etiokUy with
the disease that the attack ccimes on. July,
August, September and Ootober are the
months during Jlifh all biHiotis complaints
Are most common, apd tnost violent. The
organs immediately affected by Fever and
Ague, and IntermiHents aurl^Kemittewts, are
the l.fvcr, the -Spleen, the Stomach anil Kid
neys, Upon each and all of these orgVhs, the
Texas Tonic Svrup acts speei6c»lly, regula
ting and controlling tho How of bile, preven
ting gv relieving that enlorgwent of the spleen
known as the Ague Cake, .strengthening the
digestive powers and removing those severe
pains of the back which arise ffrom the tor
pidity or inflataat ion of tho Kidneys. As its
name indicates, it gives a healthy tone to the
Visccae, which perform the secretion, circula
tion, aud excretion. Instead of inflicting a
shock ffpnn the internal, nxwimeraiinedicincs
.lo v» inviivnnatou fltlfl UUstilfn
nature and seconds with wonderful efforts
which she makes to throw off the disease It
is not a te«*e -paHiativothat checks or modi
fies the symptoms for a brief period but a
radical remedy that reaches and remotes the
cause bf the disorder.
Of these fnct%tl»e inventors oftheTeta*
Tonic Syrup hare had innumerable proof#
aud they are prepared to establish them by
the highest tcstimJHy; Medics! men of
acknowledged eminence prescribe 4i iu their
private practice, and H is rapidly fcnpenfeding
all other preparations of its class throughout
the west Southwest and South No family
residing in any section subject to the visita
tions of Ague and Fever, or any billicus com
plaint, should be without it, if they detire to
escape the penalties of protracted sickness
and its concomitant dangers, agonies and
expenses.
It is cot alone for its curative pro pert ice
that the Tonic Syrup is to be prized. As a
preventive it as mvaluable. The virus of
disease often lies bidden in the system for
month*, and even years, weakening the vital
forces, and slowly, yet sufely sapping the
foundations of health and life.
The symptoms wf this pTbcb» tppear itf
sallow skin, the dull eye, the growing feeble
ness of the unconscious victim As spun as
these Wrany other foreshadowing*of sickneae
are observed, such as pains in the soft all of
the back, in the left aide, or between the
shoulders, the Tonic Syrup should be given)
aud it la gttavantoed that a •course el this
remedy will, in nil case*, remove every gerifi
of billious disease from the system, restore
the natural color to the complexion, remove
all local pain, And renew tfcc bodily vigor of

guard against Ague aud Fever.

Vh-Lahott, Walker Cdi’Nfr, Q a., 1
June 20, 1866, f
D»* Johr Bj;ll—Dear. Sir: l h*ve recent
ly#*given -/our “Worm Destroyer” several
trials^ and tied ft wonderfully dfbcneimi*. It
has hot failed in a ftagltr'hrstance to have the
wished-for effect. 1 am doing a pretty large
country praotioe,*aiid have daily use for some
! article of Hh» Itftfd. 1 am 1fn>e to cunfcim tbw*
. I know of no remedy moom mended the
Hbleat authors that, is so certain and speedy
in its effects. On the contrary they are «m
eertcniB in Ike eatreme. My otojdtrt in Writ
ing yow is ro nna upon wnac lermn i can gci
the medicine directly from yb*. If I can get
it upon easy terms,’f'tfball uatf it great 46al ef
it. Iam H*«f% tbwt tire use of sueh ^rttofcs
is contrary to the teachings and practice of a
great minority of the rfiguter line of M-. P.’s,
but I wee r.o just cause or good sense in dis
carding a rented; which we *know to be eul
cient, sinply because we may be ignorant of
its combination. For my part, 1 wliaii make
it a rule to uv» all and any means to tfflesiate
I suffering humanity which I maybe able to
command—aot hesitating because some wne
more ingenious than inyselT rtiky hate learned
I its effects first, and secured the sole right to
i secure that knowledge. Ha^ever, 1 am by
no mentis an ad^ft'arfc or Supporter of the
i thousands of worthless nostrums thAt flood
the country, that ptrrpot't to ctrre all manocr

Capt. Johnson.
Dn. Bull—Dear Sir: My husband; Dr. C.
S. Jghnaon, was a skillful aurgeou and physi

leaving the above 0. P. Johnson to my cafe.
At thirteen years of age he had s ehronic di
arrhea and scrofula, for which I gave him
your Sarsaparilla. It Cprbo Him. I have
for tan years recommended it to many in
New York, Ohio, and lowa. for scrofula, fe
ver sores, and general debility. Perfect suc
cess has attended it. The eurrt rfeeled in
mme eases of terofula and fever torn mere atmoU
miraeuloiu. 1 am very anxious for my son
to again have recourse to your Sarsaparilla.
He is fear fid of getting a spurious article,
hence his writing to you for it. His wounds
wars terrible, but 1 believe he will recover.

The proprietor of this Celebrated medicine
jnstly claims for it a superiority ovet all
remedies over offered to the public for the
la/e, certain, tpeedy. and permanent cure of
Ague and Fever, or Chills and Fever, whether
of short or long atandiug. 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 wjll it fail
to oure, if the directions are strictly followed
and carried out. lu a great many cases a
single dose has been sufficient for a cure, and
whole families Rave been cured by a single
' bottle. With a perfect restoration of the gen
I era I health. It is, however, prudent, and in
•very case more certain to cure, if its uss is 1
continued in smaller doses for a week or two
after the disease has been cheeked, more es
peclally in difficult and long-standing eases
1 Usually, this medicine will not require any
! aid to keep the bowels in good order ; should
1 the pancut, however, require a cathartic
j medieihe, after having taken thice or four
doses of the Tonic, a single dose of HULL'S

T* the Cotton Planters of West
Tennessee, Alabama, Missis
sippi and Arkansas:
The undersigned respectfully tbffders bis
services as agem for llic sale of your cotton
in this city, and for the purchase of yijur sup
plies. The itnftrtnttyc tcrinttiatlof of the
late war, which so materially affected the heat
interests of the Pouth, has also had its effect
: upon the Commission llusincss of’f his city,
| as transacted between planter and merchant.
You doubtless well remember with what per
tinacity (previous to the wKr), amounting in
| some instances to annoyanco, you were soli
i cited far your business at the rate of titty
cents per bale commission, free of dray age,'
I and stored for twelve months without charge,
i Then (as will V> again) the producer was tho
ruling element, and high rents, rich landlords
j and merchants Arere the result of planters' j
| patronage, . No people or occupation hove ;
been more seriously pfostrated than planters i
and prtdtting, and none so much dbserve to j
'be fostered and aided iu their unfortunate!
changed condition. Row that aid so -much
needed has been meted out you I opine too
well know. Onerous government taxes in
general, and a special tax upon your feeding
production. Cotton, large profits you have had
to pay upon supplies furnished, commissions
on sales ranging from $8,50 to $5 per bale,
monthly storsro rt exorbitant prices anil
other expenses, os per reference to your ac- !
cirftrrt skies. Ik a sum tots'! will leave yon but
little if anything upon which to. rebuild your j
shattered fortunes, ar'Io compete with the
new ordeT of affairs—free labwr. Hben 1 i
withdrew freon the Cotton and Commission
Business in I860, private fen sons t h ru led me j
do believe that I wmild never engage in it !
again. The solioitatfWns of many friends that ]
werd former patrons, and a desire to promote ;
the interest of the planting community, so
far as my feeble efforts aan do so. and the
apparent want of gratitude exhibited, to a
community' that in times past tended »o ma
terially to tho prosperity of Memphis and its
mercantile oommBiyty, has determined* me
again to offer my services in the capacity as
stated. The reduced stock of cottons in the
United States and abort sudptics in the hands
of New England manufacturers has caused
some utlvance in peiHs from the lato depres
sion, hence early sales may be prudent anti
remunerative; such was the case the past Iwa
seasons, and many planters have had cause to
regret the acting upon the too common prac
tice of holding and drawing upon their cot
tons. i would advise no planter to send for
ward his oottoa unless he wished it sold niton
the first active market. It can be held at
home much-cheaper than in Memphis, My
charges for selling cotton will be One Dollar
per bale. Insurances effected in all eases if
not inatrit S<m to the contrary. Shall buy I
your supplies from wholesale houses giving
you tbe benefit of same. In short, by strict
attention to all the departments of our busi
ness, 1 hope to merit a large share of#patron
iigc. Very respectfully,
