8sS“ Cob L. S. Poe has purchased the
Livery Stable formerly occupied by
our friend, J. P. Weller, and intends
furnishing nil kinds of conveyance for
the accommodation of the travelling
public at more rcasonsble terms than
any stable in this city. He also pro
poses to feed for much less, by the
day, week, or single teed, than has
been done bore since the war; and the
way to find out all this is to call and
see for yourselves.
Mississippi Diarrhea Cordial—
Caution 1—We earnestly caution the
public against several spurious imita
tions of this incomparable remedy,
gotten up under the head of “Diarrhea
Cordials," the object of which is to de
ceive, and thereby take advantage of
the merited reputation of tlie Missis
sippi Diarrhea Cordial. Beware of
such worthless trash. Ask for the
genuine article, prepared only by us,

fallen. It is said that she lias applied
herself so closely to tier ease that she
lias made herself an excellent lawyer.
She is now about GO years old.

TESTIMONY OF MEDICAL MEN.
Stony Point, White Co., Ark., May 23, ’00.
I)r. John Bi ll—Dear Sir: Last February
I was in Louisville purchasing .drugs, ami I
got some of your Sarsaparilla and Cedron
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 Cedron Bitters lias 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
Memphis, care of Picket t & Neely.

To my United Stales 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
ter from a highly educated and popular phy
sician in Georgia, is certainly one of the most
sensible communications 1 have ever received, j
Dr. Clement knows exactly what lie speaks ■
of, and his testimony deserves to be written
in letters of gold. Hear what the Doctor

June 29, I860, /
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. 1 am doing a pretty large
country practice, and have daily use for some
article of the kind. 1 am free to confess that
l know of no remedy recommended by the
ablest authors that is so certain and speedy
in its effects. On the contrary they nre un
ccrtenin in the extreme. My object in writ
ing you is to lind upon what terms I can get
the medicine directly from you. If I can get
it upon easy terms, I 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 lino 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 T 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
thousands of worthless-nostrums that flood J
the country, that purport to cure all manner
of disease to which human flesh is heir.
Please reply soon, and inform me of your
best terms. 1 am. sir, most respect fully,

CHILLS At FEVER, j
The proprietor of this celebrated medicine
justly claims for it a superiority over all I
remedies ever offered to the public for the I
safe, certain, speedy, and permanent cure of j
Ague aud Fever, or Chills and Fever, whether
of short or loug standing. He refers to the
cutire Western and South-western couutry
to bear him testimony to the truth of the as
sertion, that in no case whatever will it fail
to cure, 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 have beeu cured by a single
bottle, With a perfect restoration of the gen
eral health. It is, however, prudent, and in
every case more certain to cure, if its use is
continued in smaller doses for a week or two
after the disease has beeu cheeked, 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 {
doses of the Tonic, a single dose of IHJLL'8
VEGETABLE FAMILY PILLS will be suffi
cient.

Fever & Ague, or Fill Us 8z Fever,
Every poison has its antidote—Every
disease has its cure.
It i8 a known fact that the powerful miner
al medicines so often administered in copious
doses in Intermittent and Billious Remittent
Fevers are ns perilous to the constitution as
the fevers themselves, while their operation
is generally slow and upcertain, and their ef
fects cvanecsent. Remedies of this class.
Iiaznrdious under any circumstances, cannot
be used with any approach to safety except
under the directions of a physician ; and in
the region® where Fever and Ague, Billious
Fever, Chill and Fever, Dumb Ague and their
kindred complaints chieHy prevail, medical
men arc sometimes few a^d far between, and
medical advice almost unobtainable. It is
obvious, therefore, that a medicine like the
Texas* Tonic Syrup, prompt ond cer
tain in its action as a curative, and equally
to he relied on as a preventive, of these dan
gerous maladies—ft preparation as harmless
to the constitution as water—must, he of price
less value in the valley of the Mississippi, oi
wherever else they may exist.
The common cause of all remittent nn<i
intermittent fevers is the mephitic vapor 01
miasma evaporated by heat from the sell, 01
from the surface of stagnant water : and it ij
usually when the torrid warmth of summei
has prostrated the system and rendered i
incapable of contending energetically witl
the disease that the attack comes on. July

organs Immediately affected by Fever am
Ague, and Intermit tents and Remittents, an
the Liver, the Spleen, the Stomach and Kid
neys. Upon each and all of these organs, tlx
Texas Tonic Syrup acts specifically, regula
ting and controlling tho flow of bile, preven
ting or relieving that eularguient of tho spleen
known as the Ague Cake, strengthening th*
digestive powers and removing those sever*
pains of the back which arise from the tor
pidity or iuflamation of the Kidneys. As its
name indicates, it gives a healthy tone to th*
Viscere, which perforin the secretion, circula
tion, and excretion. Instead of inflicting t
shock upon the internal, as mineral medicines
necessarily do, it invigorates and assists
nature and seconds with wonderful effort
which she makes to throw oft’the disease. Ii
is not a mere palliative that checks or m^li
fies the symptoms for a brief period but e
radical remedy that reaches and removes tin
cause of the disorder.
Of these facts the inventors of the Texas
Tonic Syrup have had innumerable proofs
and they are prepared to establish them bj
the highest testimony; Medical men o:
acknowledged eminence prescribe it in theii
private practice, and it is rapidly superceding
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 billious com
plaint, should be without it, if they desire tc
escape the penalties of protracted sickness
and its concomitant dangers, agonies a in
expenses.
It is not alone for its curative properties
that the Tonic Syrup is to be prized. As 11
preventive it is invaluable. The virus o
disease often lies hidden in the system foi
months,'and even years, weakening tho vita
forces, and slowly, yet surely sapping tlx
foundations of health and life.
The symptoms of thi» process appear ir

uess of the unconscious victim As soon n.«
these or any other foreshadow ings of sickness
are observed, such as pains in the small o:
the back, in the left side, or between the
shoulders, tho Tonic Syrup should be given
and it is guaranteed that a course of this
remedy will, in all cases, remove every germ
of billious disease from tho system, restore
the natural color to the complexion, remove
all local pain, and renew tho bodily vigor oi
the individual. It is especially reoomuiendec
to the unacolimatcd settler, as a sure safe
guard against Ague aud Fever.

Mansfield & Huhike—
Gentlemen: Having
long suffered from chills and fever, and after
having tried without effect, quinine, Ayer's
Ague Cure and other chill medicines, 1 was
induced to take a bottle of your Texas Tonic
Syrup, and after taking a few doses was en
tirely relieved and have not had a chill since.

This is to state that I was'afllicted with Fe
ver ami Ague of the most inveterate charac
ter for about t wo years. I tried many reme
dies, ,ncluding large quantities of quinine,
etc., without avail. 1 was finally induced to
try the Texas Tonic Syrup—the result was
that after tukiug the first dose, 1 had "chills
no more,” and am now rapidly recovering my
health and strength. 1 have sent two dozen
of this valuable ague cure to my plantation at
Millikeu’s Bend. Every planter ahou1.1 keep

Messrs. Mansfield & Uicukk—
Gents: For seven
years past I have been a sufferer from Chills
aud Fevers, frequently to such an extent as
to keep me confined to bed for weeks. Rem
edy after remedy was tried without my find
ing relief, until I despaired regaining my
health. With many doubts 1 consented to
try your TVxaa Tonic Syrup, and to my grati
fication experienced immediate relief. For
precaution sake i took the entire bottle, and
now six mouths have elapsed 1 have not had
a single chill and my strength has fully re
turned. I consider the Texas Tonic Syrup to
be eminently the first and best Fever and
Ague Remedy of the age.

Mansfield & Higbke—
Gentlemen: After suf
fering more or less from the ague for five
years, aud finding no permanent relief from
Physician’s prescriptions or the popular rem
edies of the day, 1 was induced by a friend to
try your now, (though already widely known,)
“sure cure” for fever and ague, the Texas
Tonic Syrup, and aru happy to state that it
worked to a charm. I have had but one chill
since l commenced using it (aud that was
caused by my uwu imprudence the third day
after,) although nearly three months have

to all who suffer from any form of ague as a
