Ayer’s Ague Cure,
r,S?, r J? ever fe nd A K ue - Intermittent Fever,
Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague
Periodical or Bilious Fever. &c., and indeed
all the affections which arise from malari
ous, marsh, or miasmatic poisons.
This is a compound remedy, prepared with
scientific skill from vegetable ingredients, which
rarely falls to cure the severest cases of Chills
and Fever and the concomitant disorders. Such
a remedy the necessities of the people in mala
rious districts demand. Its great superiority
over any other medicine yet discovered for the
euro of Intermittent* is, that it contains no qui
nine or mineral, and those who take it are free
from danger of quinism or any injurious effects,
and are as healthy after using if, as before. It
has been extensively employed during the last
thirty years in the treatment of these distressing
disorders, und so unvarying has been its success
that it has gained the reputation of being infal
lible. It can, therefore, be safely recommended
a9 a sure remedy and specific for the Fever ami
Ague of the West, and the Chills and Fever of
the South. It counteracts tho miasmatic poison
in tho blood, and frees the system from its influ
ence, so that fever and ague, shakes or chills,
once broken up by it, do not return until the
disease is again contracted.
The great variety of disorders which arise from
the Irritation of this poison, such as Neuralgia,
Rheumatism, Gout, Headache, Blindness,
Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Pal
pitation, Splenic Affections, Hysterics, Pain
in the Bowels, Colic, Paralysis, and derange-
of the Stomach, all of which become intermit
tent or periodical, have no speedier remedy than
Atsr’s Ague Cure, which cures them all alike,
and protects tho system from ftiture attacks. As
a preventive, it is of immense service in thoBO
communities where Fever and Ague prevails, as
ll stay* the development of the disease if taken
.On the first approach of the premonitory symp
toms. - Travellers and temporary residents are
thus enabled to defy these disorders, and few
will ever suffer if they avail themselves of the
protection this remedy affords.
For Liver Complaints, arising from torpidity,
It is an oxcellent remedy; it stimulates this organ
into healthy activity, and produces many remark
able cures where other medicines foil.

COTTON,
REPORT OF DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE.
Washington, October 18.—The cotton report
of the statistician ol the Department of Agri
culture .oi Ootober makes tho average coudition
nearly as high as in 1870. It is 81.1 against
82.7 last year, and 88 the year before. Tho de
cline in the condition during September is less
this year than last. Georgia aud Tennessee
make the same average in September, North
Caroliua higher, and all other States lower,
though Arkansas declines but one peroent. The
State percentages are as follows: North Caroliua
85, South Carolina 79, Alabama 88, Mississippi
80, Louisiana 77, Texas 64, Arkansas 98, Ten
nessee 100. Tho weather has been luvorable
generally up to the middle of September, except
upon soils linble to suffer from drought in por-
tiousof Arkansas, and in more limited areas in
Texas as heavy rains prevailed in the early part
of that mouth, and from the lGth to tho ’20th a
Btorm swept through the cotton belt to the bor
ders of Texas, doiug great damage by beating
out the fibre, rotting the bolls, breaking dowu
the plant and overflowing low lands. A loss of
at least 20,000 bales is reported from overflows
of the Black Warrior and Tombigbee in Ala
bama. Between the 20th and 30th of Septem
ber rains were frequent, and in some localities
nearly continuous, retarding or discontinuing
picking. Rust is reported throughout the belt,
more in the East than in the West, but in few
places causing serious damage. The caterpillar
has done less damage thau was feared, the most
serious consequences being in Texas and L u-
isiana. lu the more northern States of the belt
they will acoomplish quite as much benefit as
injury by reducing redundant drought 01 (ul
lage aud hastening maturity of fruitage. Pick
ing has progressed rapidly in the more western
States, but has been retarded upon the Atlantic
ooast since the middle of September by unfavor
able weather.
FAIRS.
A contemporary says: Among the greatest
auxiliaries to the development ol a country, a
chief agency is found in an annual fair. Noth
ing contributes more to the social and physi
cal strength of a community, than the annual
rivalry invited by these periods. The exhibits
of products of tbe soil, of live stuck, and oi
articles of nmnufactuie, are all calculated to en
courage investments in labor aud genius. Tbe
success of oue man iu any particular branch of
industry is sure to impel another man to greater
exertion, and society becomes the beneficiary.
Experience, which is by far the best teacher,
baa shown that in sections of the country where
these fairs have been held for any length of
time, tho farms are more productive, the farmers
more prosperous, the breeds of stock finer, me
chanics more active, and every branch of indus
try and art in better condition, than in the sec
tions where such auuual meetings are not held.

One Hundred and Sixty Bushels to the
Acre.—Mr. J. 8. Taylor, ol Onion township,
Lewis county, Mo., has a field of corn whiob,
according to the most accurate measurement
that can be made in tbe field, will yield 100
bushels to the acre. The measurement was
made by three reliable men, who have no inter
est in exaggerating the result. The field, wliioh
is very lioh, was first planted in the latter part
of April, in rows three feet nine inches apart,
but the weather was cold and the corn came ap
badly, two-thirds rotting in the ground. The
remaining third was left standing, and tbe whole
field was replanted iu new rows between the old
ones. The result was that there was a third
more corn planted in the field than is asaal to
put in. The yield—160 bushels to the aore—is
the largest ever reported in Missouri. Several
of Mr. Taylor’s neighbors have orops very little
Inferior to his; Mr. W. M. Porter, of the same
township, has a field certified to contain 130
bushels to the aore, and Mr. James Collins, of
Dickson township, has a certificate of a yield of
135 bushels to the aore.—Chicago Times.
Mighty indeed, is the pea-nnt crop. In the
years 1876-77 the State of North Carolina pro
duced 125,000 bushels of peanuts; Virginia780,-
000 bushels, and Tennessee 500,000 bushels.
The United States can “point with pride” to the
fact th&t in the last fonr years, within their bor
ders, 3,320,000 bushels of peanuts were harvested.

A BEAUTIFUL PASSAGE,
The following is Irom the “Roveries of a
Bachelor,” by Ik Marvel: “A poor man with
out sorno sort of religion is, at best, a poor rep
robate, the foot-ball ot destiny and to the won
drous eternity that is even worse—a flame with
out heat, a rainbow without colors, a flower
without perfume. A man may, iu some sort,
tie his hopes aud bonors to this weak, shifting
ground tacle, to his business or to the world,
but a woman without that anchor called faith, iu
a drift and a wreck 1 A man may clumsily con-
tiuuo a sort of moral responsibility nut ot rela
tion to mankind; but a woman, in her compar
atively isolated sphere, where affection and not
purpose is the controlling motive, can find no
basis iu any other system but that ol faith. A
man may craze his Lraius or hi* thoughts to
trustfulness, iu such poor harborage as fame
aud reputation may stretch before him, but n
womau, where can she put her hopes in storms
if not iu heaven? Aud that sweet trustfulness,
that abiding love, that enduring hope, mellow

them with pleasant radiance when the world’i
storms break liko an army with cannon ! Who

is stronger than cannon ? Who has enjoyed the
lovo of a Christian mother, but will echo the
thought with energy, and hallow it with a
tear. ”
LITTLE BY LITTLE.
If yon are gaining little by little every day be
couteut. Are your expenses less than your in
come, so that, though it be little, you aro yet
constantly accumulating and growing ricberaud
richer every day.be content. So far as concerns
money, you are doing well,
Aro you gaining knowledge every day?
Though it be little by little, tho aggregate of ac
cumulation, where no day is permitted to pass
without adding somuthiug to the stock, will be
something surprising to yourself.
Little by little, never omitting to learn some
thing, even for a siugle day—always reading,
always studying a little between tbe time of ris-
ng up iu tho morning and lying dowu at night;
his is the way to accumulate a full storehouse
of knowledge. Finally, are you daily improv
ing in character ? Bo not discouraged because
it is little by little. The best men lull short of
wbat they themselves would wish to be. It is
ethiug, it is much il you keep good resolu
tions better to-day thau you did yesterday, bet
ter this week than you did last week, better this
year than you did lust year. Eudeavor to be per
fect, but do not become down hearted so long
us you are approaching nearer and nearer to the
nigh stundurd at which you aim.
Little by little fortunes are accumulated; little
by little, knowledge is gained; little by lit'lo
character and reputation aro achieved.
FOR THE WIFE
Like a prudent man, you are placiug the house
in “apple pie” order, aud we would suggest that
you devote some attention to that part of labor
which your wife directs, or, perhaps performs.
She needs a Boore of little trifling jobs performed,
which will be no trifles, when her comfort aud
convenience are considered. The wood needs
to bo split finer—some of it is too long. She
needs something to kindle the fire quickly, when
you are in a hurry and ure, withal, a little fretful
at delay. A shelf or two may be handy to have.
A soreon for the kitcheu window, or a new win
dow for light and comfort may be within the
range of possibility. Some hooks in olosets or
behind doors, may assist her in keeping things
picked up. The flour barrel may need a cover,
or the wash-tub may need a hoop. Tho mop
may need reconstructing and the old broom may
need replaoing. In a thousand ways, in any
moment of leisure, you will be able to so assist
your wife aud lighten her labor, that she will ap
pear to have grown ten years younger in a single
hour. Try it.
People will complain of hard times no matter
how bountiful the orops are. If we would but
examine ourselves oai^fully we would arrive at
the oonolusion that the times a good deal better
than we aro. To say the most of us, we
are a set of oraving sinners that never can or
will be satisfied with oar situation, let it bo ever
so plenteous .—Cleveland Banner.
