They are not a vile Fancy Drink, made ot Poor Run, Whiskey, Proof Spirits and Refuse Li quors doctored, spiced and sweetened to please the taste, called “Tonics,” “Appetizers.” “Restorers,” 4c., that lead the tippler on to drunkenness and ruin, but are atrue Modioittc, uitulc fiumbliCBalitc Ilooto autl Ileibs’of Cali- fomia, free from nil Alcoholic Stimulants. They are the GREAT BLOOD PURIFIER and A LIFE GIVING PRINCIPLE, a perfect Reno vator and Invigorator of the System, carrying off all poisonous matter and restoring the blood to a healthy con dition. No person can take these Bitters according to directions and remain long unwell,provided their bones are not destroyed by mineral poison or other means, and the vital organs wasted beyond the point of repair. They are a Gentle Purgative ns well as n Tonic, possessing, nlso, the peculiar merit of acting as a powerful agent in relieving Congestion or Inflammation of the Liver, and all the Visceral Organs. FOR FEMALE COMPLAINTS, in yonng’or old, married or single, at the dawn of womanhood or at the turn of life, these Tonic Bitters have no equal. For InOnmmntory and Chronic Rheuma tism and Gout, Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Bil ious, Remittent and Intermittent IFevers, Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Blndder, these Bitters have been most successful. Such Diseases are caused by Vitiated Blood, which is generally produced by derangement of the Di gestive Organs. DYSPEPSIA OR INDIGESTION, Headache, Rain in the Shoulders.Coughs, Tightness of the Chest. Dizziness, Sour Eructations of the Stomach, Bad Taste in the .Mouth, Bilious Attacks. Palpitation of the Heart, Inflammation of the Lungs, Pain in the regions of the Kidneys, and a hundred other paufful symptoms, are the oflsprings of Dyspepsia. They invigorate the Stomach and stimulate the torpid Liver and Bowels, which render them of unequalled effi cacy in cleansing the Mood of all impurities, and impart ing new life and vigor to the whole system. - FOR SKIN DISEASES, Eruptions. Tetter, Sal- Rheum, Blotches, Spots, Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Car buncles, King-Worms, Scald Head, Sore Eyes, Erysipelas, Itch.Scurfs, Discolorations of the Skin, Humors and Bis. cases of the Skin, of whatevernaroe or nature, are literally dug up and carried out of the system in a short time by the use ol these Bitters. One bottle in such cases will convince the most incredulous of their curative effect*. Cleanse the Vitiated Blood whenever you find its im purities bursting through the skin in Pimples, Erup tions or Sores; cleanse it when you find it obstructed and sluggish in the veins: cleanse it when it is foul, and your feelings will tell you when. Keep the blood pure, and the health of the system will follow. Pin, Tape, and other Worms, lurking in the system of so many thousands, are effectually destroyed and removed. Says a distinguished physiologist, there is scarcely an individual upon the face of the earth whose body is exempt from the presence of worms. It is not upon the healthy elements of the body that worms exist, but upon the diseased humors and slimy deposits that breed these living monsters of disease. No System of Medicine, no vermifuges, no anthelmintics, will free the system from worms like these Bitters. J. WALKER. Proprietor, n. a- ■— - --- and 32 and 34 Commerce Street.

On ihe 7ib of last month we wrote from New York to the readers of the Register, that the Democratic party, and all the conservative men of the country, who are in favor of over throwing the dread power at Wash ington, might congratulate them selves on one accomplished result of the Cincinnati Convention, to wit: that it had placed the arbitrament of the event of the Presidential Sec tion, at least as between Grant and Greeley, absolutely in the palm of the bands of the Democracy. Our opinion on that subject is still un changed. Rut we did not write that the Democratic party might not open that palm and let the power escape. What we meant then and mean now is, that the Democratic and Conservative party, united, held that power. But l hat party, divided, will be swept from the field like chaff before (he disciplined aid mer cenary forces of Grant. The only thing that any man who wishes the overthrow ol Grant can see clearly is, that the only living power compe tent to beat Grant, is the Democrat' ic and Conservative parly, ^nd in our judgment it is going to.require their whole strength, and on the day ol battle the absentees must all be called in, and the very hospitals emptied lor special and critical du ty. What, then, is the key of the situation? Absolute Democratic in tegrity. Is it to be the policy to unite forces with the Liberal Repub licans, and elect Horace Greeley? Horace Greeley will tell you that it will take the last man of you to do it. We do not now propose to dis cuss what should be the policy of the Democratic party, but we wish to make the fact prominent that unless the parly acts a unit, it is of no sort ot consequence what its policy may be. It might as well disbaqd, retire to its lent, and leave the country and its destinies to fate unless* it brings its whole force io bear upon whatever policy it may agree upon. When, therefore, an intelligent man says, in the fervor of his prejudices, that’I signed the call lor the Gree ley meeting, in this city, on the 10th inst., because 1 believe it is a step to break up the Democracy, he said, “■ nna for the re elect*™* A *vny mnviu. merit, wherever begun, and with whatever motives or expectations, that is calculated to impair the in tegrity of the Democratic party, is a direct movement toward the election of Grant.—Mobile-Register.

Loder, in London, who died lately, leaving the enormous fortune of $75,000,000, and of the gorgeous monument of the Rhode Island Spragues, which is to cost $100,000, and ot the wondrous wealth and prolusion of Tweed and Stewart, the ‘Richmond Enquirer’ tells us how people had big fortunes and built line houses, and gave dinners and drank fine wines, and spent in oilier ways in the old lime*, ere Lo der was, or Stewart named. Thus it is that the Enquirer takes the shive out of the nineteenth century: Why, what is Tweed, or Stewart, or Mr. Loder, or Belmont, or the Rothschilds, or the Marquisof West minster, to Rtolemy Philadelphus, of Egypt, who amassed a little proper ty of $350,000,000 ? And which of our extravagaut young ladies of these boasted times ever give her lover, as Cleopatra did, a pearl dis solved in vinegar, (or uudissolved) worth $400,000? That’s half the ex penses of Miss Tweed’s wedding at a dash, and would drew? one of our Baltimore and Washingon belles for forty years. Then there was Pauli na, one of the ion in Rone, who used to wear jewels, when she returned her visits, worth $800,000. Well, they boast of Mr. Stewart’s “marble palace” in Thirty-fourth Street and Filth Avenue. We do not suppose this house, which is abott the best they have in New York, cost more than half a million dollars. Well, Cicero, who was a poor man, gave $150,000 lor his house, and Claudi us paid $650,000 for bis establish ment on the Palatian; while Megsa- la gave $2,000,000 for the house of $40,000 for a single dish. Caligula spent $400,000 on a supper. Their wines were often kept for two ages, and some of them sold tor $20 an ounce. They roasted hogs while at their banquets. They were fond of rain's bead pie, an l pastry stuffed with raisins an I nuts. Disle-s were made ol gold and silver, set with precious stones. The beds of Ht - liogabulus were of solid silver, bis table and plates were of pure gold,, and his mattresses, cover* tl with' carpets of cloth of gold, weie stuffed with down from under the wings ol the partridge. It took $80,000 a year to keep up the dignity of a Roman Senator, and some of them spent $5,000,000 a year. Cicero and Pomoev -Mrnrmeri in” one day on Lucullus—nobody at home but the family—and that fam ily dinner cost 4,000 pounds. Cure for the Bite of a Mad Dog.— A lady friend, about 90 years ol age, sends the following to the American Farmer for publication: Immediately after being bitten, take l~o*. .of the root of Elecam pane } the green root is perhaps preferable, hut the dried will answer, and may be found ip the drug stores; the ialler was used by the author of the receipt—slice or bruise the root, put into a pint fresh milk, boil down —fasting at least six hours after ward. The next morning repeat tne dose, fasting, using 2 oz. of lire root. On the third morning take another dose, prepared as the last, and this will be sufficient. It is re commended that after each dose nothing be eaten for at least six hours. It is supposed that the root contains a principle which, being taken up by the blood in its circula tion, counteracts or neutralizes the deadly effects ol the virus of hydro- poobia. TjMr. F. Dyer, a farmer ol Galena, Kent co. f Md., had a son who was bitten by a mad dog IS years ago, and four other children in the neigh borhood were bitten; they look the above dose, and are alive and well to this day, and be has known a number ot others who were bitten and applied the same remedy, Gentleman says: “It any of your readers are troubled with lice on cattle, tell them to try brine. It it the easiest and surest remedy 1 ever used. My hogs I found covered with ticks this summer, something I never heard of before, and salt water twice applied cleared them.” Apple Tree Borer.—They en ter uear the ground and their holes may be detected from the sawdust like substance that oozes from them. Thrust a piece of wire in the holes and in a short time you will relieve the tree of its enemy. Home-made Disinfectant.—A good home-made disinfectant is pro duced by dissolving a bushel of salt in a barrel of water, and with the salt water slack'a barrel of lime, which should be wet enough to form a kind of paste. For the purposes of a disinfectant, this home made chloride of lime is nearly as good as that purchased at the shops and drug stores.' Use it freely about sinks, cellars, gutters, and o it-hous- es, and in this way prevent sickness, suffering and expense. Voorhees.—Here is the last an ecdote about Voorhees: Voorhees was sitting in his place the other day when a carpet-bagger, named Clark, of Galveston, Texas, who was born and resident in Con- necticut, came up to him and said: “Mr. Voorhees, 1 must congratu late you *nd .manly speech. It gave our side universal satisfaction.” When the man had turned away, Voorhees said, with a long oath, “Great God ! there must have been something wrong in that speech if that scoundrelly carpet-bagger sees anything In it to praise.” arrive 4 3o.p m 5 00 a ra 458 p m 10 00 a m ARRIVE 612 p m 4 10 a m J1 00 a m 4 45 a m As an example of the proud poet ic distinction Richmond may justly claim, the following is given as a Anthony, beneca, who was just a imen G f our native genius: rvlom r\ln InonnnPr IllfP Mr. virPPlV# ! • , j L The boy stood oq the burning decK ; Atlanta.

Tiberius left a properly of nearly $120,000,- 000. Why, they talk about a man’s failing in New York for a million, as it it was a big thing, Ctasar, before he entered on any office—when be was a young gentleman in private life—owed $14,000,000, and he pur chased the friendship of Quasor for $2,500,000 on the Ides of March, and he paid it before the Kalends of March. This was nothing—he squan dered $72,000,000 of the public money. Maj. Hodge’s defalcation being for the contemptuous sum of $450,000. r/ 5 And these fellows lived well. Eso- Kanaehnsetts and South Carolina at PKladelpHt. Takeihe South Carolina delegates for example. Their cas* is perhaps the worst, but there are others not much better. What do they repre sent ? The most viIl;iinous govern ment ever seen in a free Chiisti.in common wealth, a government which is only a synonym for scientific scountlielisiD and organized pillage. A tew unscrupulous and avaricious adventurers have temporarily con fiscated a Slate of the American Un ion io their private use and emolu ment. They have found a few native born rascals as unscrupulous is themselves, and taken them into their partnership. They have secured the ignorant negroes by a system oi skillful y appealing t*> their resent ments and fears—in which the Ku Klux insanity lias, of course, tieen of invaluable assistance to (hern ; by the magic of the Republican name, and by dividing office and plunder with ihtir leaders, always reserving for themselves, however, the lion's share. The history of their shameful rule is known to the American peo ple. Yet these fellows call themselves Republicans, hold up their beads with the best, and cheer for Grant with the loudest. They come into ihe National Convention, their hands reeking from corrupt jobs, their pockets heavy with s'olen money, and sit down on equal terms with the representatives of Massachusetts. They are quite right in regarding Greeley’s election as “ something disastrous.” It would be an irre parable disaster to them, as for that matter, would be the election oi Adams or Groesbeck, or almost any one who has been named—except Grant. It would be a formal notice to quit; a warning that their time was up; in fact, it would be rainy day come in very truth. No wonder that they are for Grant ‘ enthusias tically” They have good reasons to lie.—Springfield Republican. This is a vivid and litelike picture of carpet-bag rapine in the South, and an awtui prefiguratiun of the fate which awaits the obscene crew on the advent of Greeley. The Revival of Egypt- — The ruler of Egypt is putting to shame With & master minu ne is nanonng the people of bis ancient State and rebuilding, on a solid and durable foundation, a civilization that will outlive the Pyramids and the Spbynr. The famed fertility of the vaiie% ley of the Nile is made to enrich the descendants of Pharaoh by the pro duction of commodities of world wide consumption, so that the com merce of Alexandria wdl be restor ed to more than its aucient splendor. Having successlully'cpmpeted w ith the whole world in producing an ar ticle of long staple cotton, attention is now turned to sugar, and boiling- houses have been constructed on a gigantic scale to facilitate growers. The crop of this latter article is steadily increasing, and as affording an idea of its present magnitude it may be mentioned that the Viceroy has engaged to furnish Italian and French houses twenty-eight thou sand tons this season.—Sav. Rep. Senator Thurman.—A. short time since the New York World stated that Senator Thurman was utterly opposed to Greeley’s endorsement, and that as there was no other State where his nomination at Cincinnati roused such disgust and scorn, his endorsement at Baltimore would certainly insure Ohio for Grant. To this the Ohio Statesman replies: “ With two-thirds of the voters of the Democratic parly in this State eager for the endorsement of the Cincinnati ticket by the Baltimore Convention, and three-fourths of the ^tb*»r third pledged to give it a hearty support if so euuui»co, —-■ fourths of the newspapers and prom inent men out-spoken in its favor, while the remainder are non-com mittal, we are at a loss to see jun where much repugnance, disgust and scorn is to come from in Ohio. That Senator Thurman favors the support of Greeley and Brown by the Democratic party is a fact so well known that the formal contra-- diction of the World’s statement is un necessary« —m— m tun un im. “ The supplemental article to the treaty” is the name of the donkey that the Administration now be- airiJes to toddle it up to dignified .‘• John Bull’s benign consideration. II not one other instance of ridicu lous, presumption marked the record ot the Grant Administration, this one act is enough to consign it to con tempt in the estimation of the world. Giant knew as well as did the Eng lish Premier, Mr. Gladstone-, when be made the demand tor “conse quential damages,” he bad no right in justice, or by the law of nations to make such a demand. As strongly Radical as is the United States Sen ate, he did even dare to consult their judgment in the premises of tine i«u&ta IJ*»» 1 L • . with Bull-dogism (naturally, for he is kuown to be a fancier of his breed) so presumptuous grown by the long practice of dogmatic dictation over the South, that he dared, after con sultation with two ot Iii3 chosen counsellors, to offer his insult to the proud old English Calfluet. But lo ! what a rebuke does he meet! Baf fled by the lordly John Bull, he pro posed a supplemental article to the treaty, providing that if the United States withdraw this claim for “consequential damages,” John Bull obligates that in any future case of the kind, in which the position should be reversed, England will in ike no demand of the United Slates for consequential damages. If the claim made by Grant against England was wrong, it plainly con firms his character as a dangerous usurper or a tool. If it was right, it is a cowardly back down on the part of the Administration. It is a dilemma with two horns, but either one pierces with infamy. Aug. Constitutionalist.

Supreme Court.—The Atlanta Constitution says there are 274 cases on the dockets of the July term of the Supreme Court—Chattahoochee Circuit has 64 cases; Macon 25; Pataula 24; Southwestern 29 ; At lanta 21; Augusta 20; Flint 16; Cherokee 14; Ocmulgee 13; Alba ny 11; Tallapoosa 10; Northern S; Rome 6 ; Brunswick 5; Blue Ridge 4 ; Western, Southern and Oconee Circuits, 3 each ; Middle and East ern Circuits 1 each.

Age of Cows.—A cow’s age may be determined by the leeib, but the horns are the surest method. Count the rings around the horn and add to this number three years, which is the lapse of lime before any rings make their appearance. Covering Manure.—It has been thoroughly tested and found that one load of manure kept from the open air under cover is worth two loads that have been exposed to rain pus, who was a play actor, paid mi ««n. Danger from Wet Ctbihes.—Few persons understand fully the reason why wet clothes exert such a chilling influence. It is simply this : Water, when it evaporates, carries off an enormous amount of beat, in what is called the latent form. One pound of water in vapor contains as much heat as nine-or ten pounds of liquid water, and all this heat must, o! course, be taken from the body. If our clothes are moistened with three pounds of water: that is, if, by wet ting, they are rendered three pounds heavier, these three pounds will, in drying, carry off as much heat as would raise three gallons of cold water to the boiling point. ice The New Orleans Tiroes has re ceived from a friend at Wasliington, a brief history of the sales of cotton seized at various points in the South ern Slates, near and afier the close of the war, by the Fdoeral authori ties. With reference to that seized at Savannah, this statement shows that 2,034,673 pounds of sea island cotton, worth at the time—24th of December, 1864—$2 50 per pound, was reported as sold for $1,657,231,- 77 when it was worth $5,111,682 50 —showing an unexplained loss to the government of $4,454 93. For the upland cotton seized at Savan nah—16.034,415 pounds—worth from $1 to $1 24 per pound, the gov ernment received only $6,418,600- 36 showing an unexplained loss of $9,G55,S14 64, the real value being ul the above minimum rale per pound, S16.034,415. Who pocket ed ihe difference is not known ex actly, but it went into, of course, loyal pockets, aud enabled the loyat robbers to set up as milionaires and divert attention from their thefts by howling for blood and confiscation against “rebels” and traitors.
