Except also where the debt or contract is set up by way of defence to any matter of which the court has any jurisdiction, and that the said debt is more than any debt due by the defendant to the plaintiff, of which the court shall deny jurisdic tion, except, also, where the debt is for real property sold, and not one third or more of the purchase money has been paid, and the suit is in the name of tho vendor, and the said property exists in the itandt of the debtor, who refuses to deliver it back to the vendor, and where it has been fraudulently disposed of by the debtor to avoid judg ment, and except all debts due to charita ble institutions, institutions of learning, mechanics, and laborers.

WE BEG LEAVE TO CALL THE ATTEN TION of the public to this long tested and unrivalled FAMILY MEDICINE. The PAIN KILLER la a purely vegetable compound; and while it is % most efficient Rem edy for Pain, it is a perfectly safe medicine, even in the most unskillful hand*} for SUMMER GOMPPAINT, or any other form of Bowel Discaso in childron or adults. It is an almost certain cure, and has, without doubt, been more successful in curing tho various kinds of CHOLERA than any other known remedy, or oven tho most skillful physioian. Iu India, Africa and China, where this dreadful disease is over more or less prevalent, the PAIN KILLER is considered by the natives, as well as European residents in those climates; A SURE REMEDY. Asa Tonic for tho Stomach, it is unrivalled. A few doses will relieve severe cases of INDIGESTION, and it is often a perfect cure for DYSPEPSIA in its most aggravated forms. Its tonic and stimulating properties, arousing the system to vigorous action, render it a most effectual cure for COLDS AND COUGHS, when used according to directions. For external application, it is unsurpassed by any medical preparation knov’n. RHEUMATISM and Neuralgic Affections arc quickly relieved and of>en curod by it. Any soreness in the Muscles or Joints can be rolieved by its applica tion. It cures instantly tho most violent TOOTHACHE. It should always bo kept near at band, to be used in casos of severe BURNS OR SCALDS. If applied immediately, according to directions, it will give instant relief, and prevent blistering. It is peculiarly adapted to the wants of SEAMEN, and persons making sea voyages, and no vessel should sail without a supply of it. One captain writes us: “I have made sororal voyages—ofton with emigrants—and though I kocp a good medicine chest, and have several times had a good deal of sickness on board, I havo found tbo Pain Killor so efficient in all cases as to entirely preclude tho use of all other medicines.” One positive proof of its efficacy is, that the sales have constantly increased, and wholly upon its own merits. Tho effect of tho Pain Killer upon the patient, when taken internally in cases of Colds, Cough, Bowel Complaints, Cholera, Dysentery, and other affections of tho system, has beeu truly wonderful, and has won for it a numo aiaoDg the medical preparations that can never bo forgotten. Its success in re moving Pain, as an external rsmedy’, in cases of Burns, Bruises, Sores, Sprang. Out*, S#ng of Insects, and other causes of suffering, has se cured for it such a host of testimony, as an almost infallible remedy, that it will be banded down to posterity as one of the greatest medical discoveries of the nineteenth century. The magical effects of tho Pain Killer, when taken or used according to directions, arc certain. You havo only to be sure that you buy tho genuine article and adhere to tho directions in its use, and you will admit its wonderful medi cinal properties. The genuine Perry Davis’ Pain Killer is now put up in pannel bottles with the words Davis Vegetable Pain Killer blown in the glass ; and with two steel engraved labels ou each bottle— one an excellent likeness of Perry Davis, the original inventor of the medicine, the other a steel engraved note of hand—none others can be relied upon as genuine.

Read the following testimonials: At Home, near Marietta, Ga., Oct 10, 1807. A. J. Roberts <s• Cos , Atlanta, Ga.: Gentlemen—l am well pleased withthe result of the use of the “ Double Rejined Pondretle” on my crops. I tried it, on both corn and cotton, and am satisfied wherever it was applied the yield was more than double what it would have been without it. I regret exceedingly my not using it more extensively Hie present year, but will try to make up my loss by purchasing a larger quantity next spring. I regard it as the cheapest, most reliable, and easiest mauuged fertilizer with in my knowledge, and cheerfully recommend it (as I have tried it thoroughly) to the farmers of this section, aud particularly to those planting cotton, from tho fact of its causing it to mature from ten days to two weeks earlier than it would withou the use of the l’oudrette. I also used it on my garden, aud found it of much benslit to all kinds of plants. Very respectfhlly, etc., G. S. OGLESBY. Extract lroui a letter received from Professor Martin, of Hampden, Sidney College, Virginia, dated July Ist. 1867. Tho Doable Refined Poailrette is operating like a charm ou my Crop, and attracting universal attention from all beholders. I am already satisfied that it is the ctieapest aud surest renovator of our worn-out lands. High Shoals, Ga., October 1, 1867. James R. Dey, Esq.: Sir—The Double Refined Poudrette I bought for two other parties in connection with myself— one of them used it on cotton and corn, and’thinks it answered finely ; the other put it on cotton, on very poor ground, and thinks it doubled his crop. 1 used it oil coni. It answered finely, and was thought oy the hand that cultivated the crop to tie fully equal to Rhode’s Super Phosphate. 1 also used it on about an acre of cotton , and lam clearly of opinion that it is the best and cheapest fertilizer in use, and I expect to order several tons this winter. Yours, very respectfully, ISAAC POWELL. Elliyvilie, Schley Cos., Ga., Oct. 4,1867. The Double Relined Poudrette purchased of yon last Spring, I think, increased my crop of cotton 1511 pounds per acre ; put it upon worn out pine land, at the rate of 20U pounds per acre, drilled in with cotton seed. Yours, etc., S. MONTGOMERY. Salisbury, N. C., Aug. 10, 1807 James R. Dky, Esq.: Dear Sir—l can safely say that your Double Refined Poudrette is far superior to any fertilizer for Cotton ; for I have given it a fair trial this season. Yours, JEIIU FOSTER, Jr. Savannah, Ga Sept. 25,1867. James R. dky. Esq.,Pres’t.: Dear Sir—l nseil the Double Refined Poudrette bought of yon but Spring on Corn I think it iiureused the yield one half. I consider it an excellent manure. Resp- .1 T. HOLCOMBE. Ridgeway, S. C , Sept. 21, 1867. Mr. James R. Dev.: Sir—l applied the Double Refined Poudrette by itself, and in combination with other fertilizers, on COTTON, and am pleased with it; so much so that it is my present intention to purchase a larger supply of you next year to apply to my Cotton crop. Yours, very respectfully, HENRY C. DAVIS. Rocky Mount, Edgecombe Cos., N. C., ) November 13, 1866. j James K. Dky Esq.: Sir—ln leply to yonr inquiry of the results of our experience in the use of yonrimproved Pond rette, purchased of yon for this year’s COTTON CROP, we would beg leave to say that the pies ent season Ims been one quile unfavorable to the action of ail fertilizers. Several kinds of manures were used hy us, with tlie exception of your Poudrette, with little or no cfl’ect. to the crop WHERE THE POUDRETTE WAS USED IT GAVE US NEAR HALF A BALE MORE PER ACRE, AND CAUSED THE COTTON TO OPEN MUCH EARLIER, and we would therefore recommend the same as a concentrated manure for the growth of Cotton, as well as improvement to the soil.
