oth. It tills better at both euds than any other corn,
lob. It is a solid white transparent corn, with white
cob.
• th. It grows more vigorous and ripens its whole
crop earlier than any of the other large field varieties
in America.
s th- It makes better meal, being sweeter and richer,
‘.'tin li bears more foliage which makes more feed.
' "th. It can be planted on laud from which wheat
has been harvested, or from which potatoes have
been dug; fully ripening before frost.
lltli. The spikes shoot out within four feet of the

ILL EDGE VILLE, GEORGIA, MARCH 12, 1873.
NUMBER 33.
T HE above cut represent* DU. .JONEfc’ new meth
od of curing diseases of the Lungs and Throat
„ - Luugs
Asthma, Bronchitis, Trachetip, Layringetis, Consump
tion, Enlarged Tonsils, Pleuiitis, breaking up Conges
tionofthe Lungs and Liver, and effecting cures ot
the Respiratory Organs with certainty aud ease, that
cannot be reached by any other method.
Ills remedies are reduced to warm spray—are speci
fic in their nature; they reach the whole diseased sur
face at every breath; they are carried directly into the
blood without having to.go through the process of di
gestion; only certain prepared remedies can be used
by this system.
A few so called family doctors are experimenting
with the Inhaler and their Caustics, Iodines and other
relics of barbarism peculiar to that practice—the re
sult is, they are destroying the reputation of the only
system that will cure Throat Diseases. Only certain
mild remedies can be taken into the Lungs and they
are not kept by druggists uor known to the general
profession.

Affect the American Nation.
SYMPTOMS of CHRONIC CATARRH
BY. DR. J. A. JONES.
1st. Of the head—heavy, dull, aching over the eyes,
sometimes extending hack through different parts of
the head, and causing a weight or heat, of coldness on
top of the head, snapping aud cracking noise in the
ears, dullness of hearing—often the secretion collects in
middle ear, closing up the eustachinu tubes, produc
ing deafness—the lining membrane being the same
from the head through the whole alimentary canal,
and down into tbe lungs, it has but to extend itself to
affect the whole system It becomes virulent in the
nose sometimes, causing a tenderness, or producing
offensive breath, discharges of yellowish matter aud
scubs the shape of the nostrils, or if the partition bone
is only affected, then the Isobars are flat, and when
they discharge, which is generally alter exertion, the
nose is opeu, the patieut breathes more easily and the
head feels more clear—the heaviness over the eyes
and across the forehead is seldom entirely gone, but it
is aggravated by every fresh cold. The offensive smell
for which the unfortunate chews many kinds of drugs
to neutralize or destroy, and thereby be enabled to go
into society without being a positive nuisance, which
persons of both sexes are, on account of this barbarous
and offensive disease called OZOENA, which has now
assumed a Tertiary form of cancer, destroying every
thing but the outside skin, lettiag the nose sink ia, ex
tending to the throat, destroying *he voice, etc., when
the disease is called Laryngitis, Trachetis, Bronchitis,
etc.
SYMPTOMS OF THE THROAT.
A collection of tenacious slimy secretion falling
down into the throat and thrown out—tickling, rasp
ing, hoarseness and scraping to keep open the wind
pipe; ddlicult breathing, oppression and soreness un
der the breast bone; tenderness in the left side; rheu
matic pains between the shoulders; stiff neck on
taking cold; palpitatiou of the heart; torpid liver;
someliines yellow complexion; general dull and heavy
feeling; extreme shortness of breath; soreness of atom
ach pit; bloated sensation; belching of wind; yawning,
gaping.keeping mouth open to breathe; distress, sleep
less nights; worse when lying down, and it r,ow termi
nates either in Consumption of the Lungs, 01 follows
tho mucous membrane through the whole alimentary
and urinal canal, causing Dyspepsia, Costiveness
Piles, Iuflamation of the Bladder, trouble in the Urina
ry Organs, (and in women, nearly the whole train of
female diseases,) and general Consumption, emacia
tion, complete prestratiuu, etc; with all ot which, and
many other symtomg, called by twenty different
names, the sanerer may exist for a while. Dr. Jones
cures this dangerous and insidious disease by the iEtien
System—using specific mediciues known ouly to him
self, applied to the diseased surface, in the form of
spray. He relieves the sufferer iu a few minutes, and
supplies the patieut with all that is required to finish
the cure at home.
OZOEN A,
An Offensive Disease in (he Nose.
Which eats away the partition bone, destroys tbe
sense of smell, produces green or yellowish scabs, the
shape of the nostrils—sometimes fiat, often tainted
with blopd and matter; causes weight ard dull aching
over the eyes, headache, loss of memory, giddiness,
etc. This diseaee is often caused by neglected colds,
by suppressed skin diseases, Scrofula, Scarlet Fever.
Psoriasis, Syphilis, and other contagious diseases, and
i itself contagious. It often extends to the thiont,
roduc’ng Hoarseness, Bronchitis and CONSUMP-
TON. It is a Tertiary form of Cancer, DESTROY
ING the NOSE and THROAT when too loug neglect
ed. DR. JONES is the ONLY Physician iu the
United States who thoroughly understands curing this
dangerous and offensive disease. He destroys the
offensive smell in FIVE MINUTES, aud relieves the
sufferoi in every way AT ONCE, and CUKES the
disease in a short time. For this disease Dr. Jones
as special instruments with which to apply his spe
cific remedies to the spot. Nasal Dorches and catarrh
remedies generally drive this disease .o the lungs more
quickly.

SYMPTOMS OF CATARRH.
Prevalent in America and Europe.
1. Or the Head.—Tingling, itching, with a sense
of dryness and obstiuction of the nose, sneezing run
ning of a watery secretion, as it progresses, the secre
tion becomes mucous, entire obstiuction of one or
both uostriU, hawking, tickling of the throat, cough
ing, etc. 2 Catarrh of the Chest prevails as an epi
demic sometimes, and is called influenza; with or with
out fover, and many of the symptoms just mentieued;
there is oppression across the breast, rawuess and
burning ot the throat, first day, afterward a copious
secretion of mucous, which may become opaque or
frothy, difficulty of breathing, pain in the head, and
dull teeiings, a sense of soreness, extending under the
breast bone to the stomach pit, the tits of coughing
may occasion vomiting, oppression, prostration, as the
disease progresses, the sputa becomes ropy and viscid.
Tlii. disease is called the Grippe by some. Catarrhal
Inflammation of the eyes arises from colds, causes ob
struction of the ear passages, watery eyes, fistula,
lachryinalis, dimness of vision, etc.
SUPPRESSED CATARRH may produce inflma-
mation of the lungs, brain or eyes, or give rise to
rheumatism, nervous disorders, weeping, moaniug,
tremors and convulsions, drowsiness, chilliness, start
ing,twitching, palpatation of the heart, etc. When the
frontal sinuses above the eyes, posterior and anterior
nasal passages, become clogged up, aud even tbe an
trum or cavity of the cheek bone becomes filled. or
partly, it often proaucA a pressure on the nerves that
supply these parts, and pains like the most exerutia
tiug neuralgia is the result. The disease follows the
mucous membrane through the eustachian tubes to all
parts of the same membrane ol the tar, causing hyper
trophy of tho drum, interferes with the functions of tbe
glands of Wharton, whielp secrete the wax; a dryness
follows, hardness of hearing, roaring, buzz ng, singing,
whistling, cracking, the rmgiDg of the bells, and simi
lar noises, which vary, and which are simple effects,
and when ihe cause is lemoved, the effects cease; this
hardness of bearing increases with each cold.
Dr Jones has made old standing Jiseas -s of every
name a speciality all his life. He is well prepared,
and performs all the more difficult and delicate opera
tions in surgery, especially ot the eye, ear and nose.
He is a graduate of the best medical colleges iu Europe
and America, and his diplomas proving the same are
suspended iu his office. , ,
ti r Letters containing one dollar will be answered.
Dr. Jones’ fees vary from §4U to §2000. His term,
are cash. His fees are considered very low lor tbe
great amount of good he does.

not been restored to their Federal re-
1) tious. It seemed to me that no new
questions should be raised so long as
that condition of affairs existed. There- j
fore the past four years, so far as I
could control events, have been con
sumed in the effort to restore harmo
ny, public credit, commerce and all
the arts of peace and progress.
It is my firm conviction that the civ
ilized world is tending towards repub
licanism or government by the people,
through their chosen representatives,
and that our own great Republic is
destined to be tbe guiding star to all
others. Under our Republic we sup
port an army less than that of auy
European pow r er of any standing, and
a navy less than that of either of at
least five of them. There could be
no extension of territory on this con
tinent which would call for an increase
of this force, but rather might such
extension enable us to diminish it.
The theory of government changes
with general progress, now that the
telegraph is made available for commu
nicating thought, together with rapid
tiansit by steam, all parts of a con
tinent are made contiguous for all pur
poses of government, and communica
abuses that have grown up in the civil
service of the country. To secure
this reformation, rules regulating
methods of appointment and promo
tion were established, and have been
tried. My efforts for such reforma
tion shall be continued to the best of
my judgment. The spirit of the
rules adopted will be maintained.
I acknowledge before the assem
blage, repriaenting as it does every
section of our country, the obligation
I am under to my countrymen for the
great honor they have conferred on
me, by returning me to the highest
office within their gift, and the further
obligation resting ou me to render to
them the best services within my pow
er.
This I promise, looking forward
with the greatest anxiety to the day
when I shall be released from respon
sibilities that at times are overwhelm
ing, and from which I have scarcely
had a respite since the eventful firing
upon Fort Sumpter, in April, 1861, to
the present day.
My services were then tendered and
accepted under the first call for troops
growing out of that event. I did not
ask foi place or position, and was ea
lay dying, while the driver fled in dis
may. Policeman Munroe, though
trembling slightly, moved toward the
animal, who was enjoying his quiet
repast, but the tiger, raising It is head,
deigned not to notice the minion of the
law, and returned to his prey. Ii cost
him his life, for the officer, with a w 11-
aimed shot from his revolver, killed
the beast. \\ hat the consequence of
this animal's release might have been
is shocking to contemplate, for the
black tiger is one of earth's most feio-
cious beasts.
The elephants were all captured
before night. A small one, when
found, was enjoying himself hugely at
Washington market, munching a barrel
of apples, where a large concourse of
spectators were ai miring his devour
ing propensities, but none ventured ’o
disturb his pleasures. The tiger’s es
cape was due to a plank in the bottom
ot his cage falling out as it was being
raised for removal, each animal having
been separately confined. He was
valued at three thousand dollars.

country made easier than it was
throughout the old thirteen States at
the beginning of our national exis
tence.
Tbe effect of the late civil strife
has been to free the slave and make
him a citizen, yet he is not possessed
of tbe civil rights which citizenship
should carry with it. This is wrong
and should be corrected. To this cor
rection I stand committed, so far as
Executive influence can avail. Social
equality is not a subject to be legisla
ted upon, nor shall I ask that any
thing be done to advance the social
status of the colored man, except to
give him a fair chance t» develope
what there is good in him—give him
access to schools and when he travels
let him feel assured that his conduct
will regulate the treatment and fare be
will receive.
The States lately at war with the
general Government are now most
happily rehabilitated, and no Execu
tive control is exercised in any one of
them that would not be exercised in
any other State under like circum
stances.
In the first year of the past admin
istration the proposition came up for
the admission of San Domingo as a
territory of the United States. It was
not a question of my seeking but was
a proposition from the people of San
Domingo, and which I entertained.
I believe now, as I did then, that it
was to the interests of this country
for the people of San Domingo and
all concerned that the proposition
should be received friendly. It was,
however rejected, constitutionally,
and therefore, the subject was never
brought up again by me. In future,
while I hold my present office the sub
ject of tbe acquisition of territory
must have the support of the people
before I will recommend any proposi
tion looking to such acquisition.
I say here, however, that I do not
share in the apprehension held by many
as to the danger of the Government's
becoming weakened and destroyed by
reason of their extension of territory.
Commerce, education aud rapid tran
sit of thought and matter by tele
graph and steam have changed all this.
Rather do I believe that our Great
Maker is preparing the world, in His
own good time, to become one nation
—speaking one language and when
armies and navies will be no longer
required. •
My efforts in the future will be di
rected to the restoration of good feel
ing between the different sections of
our common country—to the restora
tion of our currency to a fixed value,
as compared with world’s standard of
values—gold—and if possible, to a
par with it—to the construction of
cheap routes of transit throughout the
land, to the end that tbe proceeds of
all sections may find a market and
leave a living remuneration to the pro
ducer—to the maintainance of friend
ly relations with our neighbors and
with distant nations^-to the re-estab-
hsliment of our commerce and share
in the carrying trade upon the ocean
—to the encouragement of such man
ufacturing industries as can be econo
mically pursued in this country—to
the end that tbe exporta of home pro
ducts and industries may pay for our
imports—the only sure method of re
turning to and permanently maintain
ing a specie basis—to the elevation of
labor, and by a humane course, to
bring the aboriginees of the country
under the benign influences of an ed
ucation and civilization.
was reselved to perform my part in a
struggle threatening tbe very existence
of the nation.
I performed a conscientious duty
without asking promotion or command
and without a revengeful feeling to
wards any section or individual. Not
withstanding this, throughout the war
and from my candidacy for my pres
ent office in 1868 to the close of the
last Presidential campaign, I have
been the subject of abuse and slander
scarcely ever equalled in political his
tory, which to-day I feel that I can
afford to disregard in view of your ver

Landing a Menagerie—A Fresh Ar
rival of Wild Animals.
The ship City of Sparta, Captain
Anderson, which arrived at the port
of New York on the 19th ult., from
Calcutta, where she cleared November
30th, 1872, brought four Asiatic ele
phants, a Summatrau black rhinoceros,
a horned horse, three black tigers, a
mongoose and a large number of other
rare animals and birds, consigned to
Adam Forepaugh, proprietor of the
celebrated menagerie bearing his name,
and an influential resident of Philadel
phia. The ship had a remarkably
pleasant passage for the winter season ;
passed the Cape of Good Hope on
December 21st, the Island of St. Hele
na, once tbe “Great Little Corporal’s”
prison, on January 12th. crossed the
equator in longitude 33 West; and
alter speaking a number of vessels
arrived safely as .above stated. The
valuable animals, some of which have
never before been in this country,
were under the charge of James Cars-
tang, who with four assistants, was
successful in bringing them to this
country without any loss, except five
birds of Paradise and a small elephant.
As the ship reached her moorings
on Thursday last, preparations were
immediately made to land the animals,
and for this purpose the elephants
were bliud-folden, their legs secured
by heavy chains, with sufficient play
to enable them to move, and thus they
were led ashore. The moment each
animal reached terra Jlrma aud snuffed
the earth' he filled his trunk, raised it
over his head, and covered his huge
body with dirt and snow—a most elo
quent expression of elephantine satis
faction. The smaller animals were
safely landed, and the more difficult
task of moving the large rhinoceros
was reached. He was coufined in a
huge box of thick planks, tbe corners
heavily bound with iron bauds. Large
wooden rollers were«piaced under tbe
cage, and it was safely rolled to the
pier, when suddenly a cry was raised
“tiger loose !” Instantly consterna
tion was spread around, the crowd of
sight-seers dispersed in a moment, fly
ing in all directions, some climbing
aloft in the rigging, others clamber
ing over tbe ship’s sides to reach the
pier, and one became so excited that
he jumped iuto the river, and narrow
ly escaped with his life, being picked
up by a ferry boat.
The elephants, who were standing
quietly in the street; were seized with
a frenzy, and began to stampede-
Chains were snapped asunder as if
mere threads, and the animals were
moving away at their utmost speed.
One reached William street and
promptly demolished the candy estab
lishment of an aged lady, whose cries
were ruthlessly scorned. The tiger’s
escape was a reality—a terrible reality
—for he had reached the street and

[Correspondence of the Sun ]
Naples, February 8.—In Septem
ber last two tourists, an Englishman
and an American, obstinately disre
garding the entreaties of their guides,
insisted upon being lowered down into
tbe dark caverns immediately under
the orifice of the crater of Mount Vesu
vius, and those daring tourists have
not since been heard of. When the
news reached Naples that city was fill
ed with horror,and for weeks succeeding
the disaster few tourists ventured to
the summit of the burning mountain.
Fashionable adventurers.for whom the
icy heights of the Matterhorn or Mont
Blanc had no deterring awfulness or
horror, winced at the idea of approach
ing the mouth of Vesuvius, after it had
so mysteriously become theimpromptu
tomb of two young men who had not the
least misgiving about their doom.
Recently a similar calamity occur-
ed, and almost under the same circum
stances. The victims iu this instance
were Jean LeMieux, Belgium, and
Louis Schmidt, of Berne, Switzerland.
They were remaining at a respectable
locanda or boarding house on the Chiaja,
when a party was formed to make the
ascent togother, and it is strange that
on the morning of the night when they
started for Resina (a village at the foot
of Mount Vesuvius, where horses, staffs
and guides are procured), Schmidt re
ceived a letter from his sister at Genoa,
in which she stated that it would not
reach Naples long in advance of herself.
Schmidt therefore begged his compan
ions to release him from his promise to
start for Resina that night, but as he
had projected* the excursion they in
sisted upon his going. Schmidt, after
making arrangements with his landla
dy for the reception of his sister, start
ed with his companions on Tuesday
night for Vesuvius. They left Resina
at one in the morning so that they
might reach the base of the crater in
time to witness the rising of the sun
above tbe peaks of the surrounding
Alps and Apennines.
Having reached the end of their
romantic journey—the summit of the
volcano—everything was quiet as upon
some secluded rustic hill, and Le Mieux
called upon any of the party to join
him in going down the crater. The
guides are always provided with ropes,
either for that purpose or for assisting
lumbersome travellers up the last por
tion of the steep ascent. Schmidt a-
greed to accompany Le Mieux, and in
spite of the remonstrances of their
guides each took hold of a loop and
swung himself over the gloomy void
whence issued the tremendous showers
of ashes and streams of lava which
buried in a single night the famous
cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum.
The guides cautiously lowered them
down until the rash adventurers an
nounced that they were standing on
firm ground. Tbe guides’ last warn
ing to them was not venture inward. A
call from one of tbe tourists above was
answered with a faint hollow, “ Va bene”
(all right) from the headstrong ex
plorers of the mysteries of the burning
mountain*
Whether they were smoothered with
fumes of sulphur, or missing a step,
were hurled into the unknown abyss
of the volcano, nobody on earth will
ever knew. Contrary to the advice
of the practiced guides they let go the
looped ropes and ventured into the
fatal darkness of the crater’s recesses.
The tourists above cried out impatient
ly and in vain, but no respose came
after the first and ouly “ Va bene." The
guides and tbe friends of the unfortu
nate ones remained until near sundown,
when all hope of their reappearance
was abandoned- The guides were
lowered down repeatedly, and several
of the excursionists went as far as the
ropes would allow in search of their
fatally venturous comrades. This is
the third instance of a disaster of this
nature within the past ten years.
A Blast from the North.—Grant’s
second term was appropriately enough
introduced with the mercury below
zero, and a howling noither which
froze everything in this section stiff.
There is classical authority for consult
ing the auguries of Nature iu all great
public events, and it is not improbable
these Northern rigors foreshadow,
Grant’s attitude to us daring the next
four years. At all events, when he
talks about peace and the restoration
of good feeling, we know from experi
ence what that portends.

of the proprietors of the Macon Tel
