endeavoring to build up an establishment to
suit the wants of the community and we think
we can guarantee as good bargains as can be
had in larger markets and we think we can
better accommodate our customers than those
in our business who live at a distance; vvehave

A COTTON GIN FEEDER that will save t
si the labor of a hand at every Cotton Gin t
:o which it may be attached, thus dispensing r
vith feeding by hand, (a very injurious prac
,ice to the close attendant.) is certainly a desi
rable object. Besides which, the Feeder will r
'move a large portion of the dust, dirt, hulls, t
de., from the cotton, before it enters the gin. „
hus improving the quality and -‘sample” of c

Dr. Sledge —Dear Sir : 1 have sold all your
Cholera or Diarrhcea Syrup. I have used it
myself, and also in my family several times,
and I can say for the truth, it is the best medi
cine for the Flux I have ever seen, for it ha«
not failed to cure in every case in 48 hours. I
would not be without it in inv family for ten
dollars per bottle.

Dr. J. M. Sledge—Dear Sir: After my re
spects to you, please let me say to you that my i
friend. Mr. F. Russer, the gentleman to whom
I went with to sea from Gallatin, has im
proved to the extent that he is able to go any
where bis business calls him; in fact your
medicine has performed such miraculous
cures, in every instance where it has been
tried, that having gone into business at Hazle
hurst, the depot near me. 1 have concluded to
try some of your Compounds, as I understood
you to say when you were here that you
would takeoff 20 or 25 per cent. You will .
therefore please send to me say 18 bottles
Cholera Medicine, 13 bottles Nerve and Bone 1
Liniment. 24 bottles Hoarhound Pectoral, and
:he balance of the One Hundred Dollars which .
you will find enclosed, in your Nervous Tonic.
1 send the right hand eni! of the money, anil
)n the reception of the first half, you will
alease send the medicine and write to me, and :
I will send th" other half. I expect you to f
lend me your Nervous Tonic at $1 60, as you -1
mid it at $2 00 by the single bottle. Do not
lelay sending the Medicine, as there is a con- 1
iderable demand or call for it. Mr. Peave, -
vho was given over to die in a few days, is up
ir.d going about, and I have no douht he will ,

Jr. J. M. Sledge:
Dear Sir—In conversation with your agent, ,
learned that some prejudiced persons, which
re to be found everywhere, against patent med- ]
cines. spoke of your medicines as not doing c
atich for themselves or any one else. To sec j
ustice done between all parties, and to enable c
thers. if they wish, to receive the same bene- c
ts that I have from your medicines, 1 will v
imply give you a statement of facts, which f
ou can make any use of you please. If any \
ne doubts let them call on me and 1 can satis- c
y them. I am probably as well known as any j
ne in this portion of the State, but 1 am not j
a the habit of giving certificates, but feel s
bat in giving this one I am fully justified.— j
ly son was taken sick with the Fluxlast July,
nd lay seventeen or eighteen days, when all s
ope on my part was gone, and nothing ap- n
eared to do him any good, I commenced giv
ng him vour Diarrhoea or Flux Syrup, and he
ommenced mending immediately. I verily c
elieve it was the saving of his life. You have e
ie facts. Hoping that others may receive
be benefit that mv son did, I remain, yours ~

Dr. Sledge:—Dear Sir: Your medicines ^
ave rendered general satisfaction here ; they ti
ave even gone beyond the flattering recom
lendation given by yourself. I have used in P
iy family, with unparalleled success, your n
'ervous Tonic, vour Diarrhoea Syrup, and
our Liniment and Hoarhound Pectoral ; and
ave found them superior to any medicines S
rer used here, for the various diseases arising
om a miasmatic country like this, where
ever and Ague, Diarrhma and Rheumatism,
e the prevailing diseases. Your Nervous
onic has been used by many others as well
i myself, as a preventive of Fever and Ague ;
id "it has invariably given satisfaction. 1 ~
r one say emphatically that it will prevent
hills and Fevers, if taken according to the G
rections; and that one bottle will save any ^
rnily ten times the cost, if used as a preveh
ve. I used it in my family last year, and I
ill certify on oath that one bottle saved me
: least ten times its cost. The three years
■evious to last year, not one of us escaped
ie Chills and Fevers, and last year we used
ily one of your betNes of Nervous Tonic;
