that as soon as those objects should be
accomplished, the war on the part of the
Government should cease; and,
'V heurar. The President of the United
States has heretofore, in the spirit of that
deelaration and with the view of securing
f >r it the ultimate and courp'ete effect, ns
set forth in the several proclamations
offering amnesty and pardon to persons
who had boon, or were concerned in, the
aforenamed rebellion, which proclama
tions, however, wore attended with pru
dtmtial reservations and exceptions then
deemed necessary and proper, and which
proclamation wore respectively issued on
the 8th day of December, 18G3, on the
2Gth day of March, 1804, on the 29th
day of 'lay, 1865, and on the 7th day of
September, 1867 ; and,
Whereas, The said lamentable civil
war has long,since altogether ceased, with
an acknowledgment liy the States of the
supremacy of the Federal Constitution
and of the Government thereunder, and
there no longer exists any reasonable
ground to apprehend a renewal of the
said civil war or any foreign interference,
or any unlawful resistance by nny portion
of the people of any of the States to the
Constitution and laws of the United
States; and,
Whereas, It is desirable to reduce the
standing army, and to bring to a speedy
termination the military occupation, mar
tial law, military tribunals, the abridg
ment of the freedom of speech and of the
press, the suspension of the privilege of
habeas corpus and the rights of trial by
jury, such encroachments upon our free
institutions in times of peace being dan.
gcrous to public liberty, incompatible
with the individual rights of the citizens,
contrary to the genius and spirit of our
Republican form of Government and
exhaustion of the National resources : and.
Whereas, It is believed that amnesty
and pardon will tend to secure a complete
and universal establishment and preva
lence of municipal law and order in con
formity with the Constitution of the
United States, and to remove all appear
ances and presumptions of a retaliative or
vindictive policy on the part of the
Government, attended by unnecessary
disqualifications, pains, penalties, confisca

contrary to promote and preserve com

Now, therefore, be it known that T,

in the name of the people of the United

unconditionally and without reservation,
to all and to every person, who directly or

it would not be too much for us to state that
when the directions arc strictly complied

it is tried. It is pleasant to the taste, and
the cheapest medicine in the world. There

j The wonderful operation of the Texas Ton

is the result of a lifetime of experience and

Dr. Jott.v Bull—Dear Sir: I have recent- j
ly given your “Worm Destroyer” several
trials, ami find it wonderfully efficacious. It
lia« not failed in a single instance to have tlie
wishcd-for effect. 1 am doing a pretty large
country practice, nnd have daily use for some
article*of the kind. I am free to confess that j
I know of no remedy recommended by the!
ablest authors that is so certain and spoedy ,
in its effects. On the contrary they are un- j
oerteftin in the extreme. My object in writ- j
ing you is to find upon what terms I can get j
the medicine directly from you. If I can get j
it upon easy terms. I shall use a great deal of!
it. I am aware that the use of such articles j
is contrary to tho teachings and practice of a j
great majority of the regular line of M. D’s. !
but 1 see no just cause or good sense in dis- |
eardiug a remedy which we know to be effi
cient, simply because wo may be ignorant of
its combination. For my part, 1 shall make j
it a rule to use all and any means to alleviate j
suffering humanity which l may ho able to |
command—not hesitating because some one j
more ingenious than myself may have learned 1
its effects first, and secured the sole right to |
secure that knowledge. However. I am by j
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 tlesu is heir.
Please reply '“ton, and inform rue of your

justly claims for it a superiority over all
remedies ever offered to the public for the
safe, certain, speedy, and permanent cure of
Ague and Fever, or Chills and Fever, whether
of short or long standing. Ho 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 arc strictly followed
and eiMviod out. In a great many cases a
single nose has boon 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, prudent, and in
every ease more certain to cure, if its use is
continued in smaller doses for a week or two
after the disease has been checked, more es
peeiaVy in difficult and long-standing eases.
Usually, this medicine will not require any
aid to keep the bowels in pood order; should
the patient, however, require a cathartic
medicine, after having taken three or four
ilost'R of the Tonic, a single dose of HULL’S
VK(5KTABLK FAMILY PILLS will be puili
cienl.

elapsed since the discoverer, (who spent a
decade in studying experiment, and perfect

it is already recognized by the most eminent
physicians in All parts of the country to be
the most surprising anti effective remedy for
certain diseases of which they have knowl

All other Compounds 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 ingredi

Sarsaparilla, and oftentimes injure the health
of the patient. It is not so with Hurley's
preparation.
