The proprietor of this celehrst-d medicine justly

manent cure of Agu. and Fever .or Chills and Fever
\\ h ether of short or longstanding, lie refers to the
entire Western and Soutliivestern country to bear him
testimony tothetruth of the aseertion, ttiat in no care
whatever will it fail to cure, if the directions are strict
ly followed and ca ried out. In a great many cases a
single dose has been sufficient for a cure, arid w hole
families have t een cured by a single bottle, with a per
fect restoration.of the general health. It is, however,
prudent, and in every case more certain to cure, if its
uso is con'inued in smaller doses for a week or two af
ter the disease lias been checked, more especially in
difficult and long s'and’ng cases. Usually, this medi
cine will not require any aid to keep the bowels in
good order; should the pallet t., however, require a
cathartic m-dicine, after having t, ken three or four
doses of the Tonic, a single dose of BULL'*} VEGETA

wonderfully efficacious. I'. has not failed in a single

pi etty large country practice, and have daily use for
some article of the kii.d. lam free to confess that I
know of no remedy recommended by tlieabiest authors
that is so certain and speedy in its tffecis. t’n the con
trary they are uncertain in the extreme. My object
in writing you is lo find out 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. lan
aware ltiai the use of such articles is contrary to the
teachings and practice of a great majority of the icy
ulur 1 ue of M. D.’s, but I see no just cause it good
sense in discarding a remedy wldch we know to be ef
ficient, simply fecause we may be ignorant of its coro
biuation. For my part, I shall make it a rule to use al)
and any means to alleviate suffering hum .nity which
I may be able to command—not hesitating because
someone more ingenious than myself may have learn

Benton Barracks, Mo., April 80, 1566.
Dr. John Bull—Dear Sir: Knowing the efficiency
of your Sarsaparilla, and the healtny and beneficial
qualities it possesses, I send you the following state
ment of my case:
I was wounded about two years ago—was taken
prisoner and confined for sixteen months. Being
moved so often, my wounds have not healed yet. I
have not sat. up a moment since 1 was wounded. I
am shot through the hips. My general health is im
paired, and I need something to assist nature. I
have more faith in your Sarsaparilla than in any thing
else. I wish that that is genuine. Please express me
half a dozen bottles, and oblige
Capt. C. P. JOHNSON.

P. S.—The following was written April 89, ISCS, by
Mrs. Jennie Johnson, mother of Capt. Johnson.
I>K. BULL—Dear Sir : My husband. Dr. C. S. John
son, was a skillful surgeon and physician in Central
New York, where he died, leaving the above C. P.
Johnson to my care. At thirteen years of age he had
a chronic diarrhoea and scrofula, for which I gave
him your Sarsaparilla. IT CURED HIM. I have for
ten years recommended it to many in New York, Ohio,
and lows, for scrofula, fever s 'res, and gener il debili
ty. Perfect success has attended it, she cures effect
ed in some coses of scrofula and fewer sores were
almost miraculous. lam very anxious for mv son to
again have recourse to your Sarsaparilla. He is fear
ful of ge.ting a spurious article, hence his writing to
you for It. His wounds were terrible, hut. I believe he
will recover. Respectfully, JENNIE JOHNSON.

Luftec’s Titte.
We hold it to be the gravest offence
against tho national flag to s l eak flip
pantly of the curious freaks of Cuffce
and his bosom friend, the carpet-bag
ger, whose unwashed loyalty and in
tense devotion to the government
should excite a thrill of admiration in
every patriotic bosom. But the fol
lowing is rather too good to lose, and
we subject our loyalty to the shock of
publishing it, rather than consign it to
oblivion:
Some time since, a venerable darkey,
who had been led to believe that with
his freedom he was to receive forty
acres of laud and a mule, applied to
the head carpet-bagger of a freedman’s
bureau for his ticket to vote, his mule,
and the title to his real estate, wher
soever that might be. He voted the
ticket given him, and was given four
little sharpened stakes, two feet long,
painted Uke young barber-poles, and
told to select his forty acres anywhere.
For this certificate of freedom, ho
was asked ten dollars by the agent.—
But the darkey had but four dollars
and seventy-five cents. So the loyal
keeper of the new men and brothers
compromised for this amount, and the
brushing of his clothes and boots.
After the work was finished and the
money paid, the agent gave him the
sticks or stakes.,, and a receipt for the
pre-emption money, to show in case
there should be any trouble abou . lo
cating the land.
The darkey found on a plantation
near by, forty acres, more or lesss, and
drove his stakes. The owner came out
to know why these things were thus,
when the darkey told him it was all
right, that he purchased the land of
the Government, and had the bill in
his pocket
“Let’s see it,” said the planter.

to the same teachers; and, thus, all
the stimulants to neatness of dress, pu
rity of language, tx.so of manner and
address, and high intellectual endeav
or, growing out of contact with the
other sex under wholesome restraints,
are secured. By having separate
boarding houses, and by holding the
reins of government firmly, yet kindly,
wo find the school much more easily
controlled than either a male or female
school separate. Our social relations
are strict, and only those who aro will
ing to yield obedience to wholesome
laws, can stay with us long. Wo, in
addition to the society of a pleasant
neighborhood, make up our own socie
ty by cl rawing upon the best sources
in our country; for, as our catalogue
shows, our school has been made up
from some of the best families of Miss
issippi and Alabama. Once a month
the Literary Societies have public ex
ercises, and young gentlemen have per
mission to send cards through the' ac
uity, to the young ladies, and, by their
permission, attend them' to the debates,
&c. Only one card can pass between
the same couple in five months. In
this way wo avoid intimacy, extend !
j cquaiutanees, and elevate the tone of i
character and conduct of both sexes.
Ourcountry isbeginningto see the falla
cy of the Homan Uatholic idea that
men and women must bo immured in
cloisters and nuunerncs, to receive an
education that will fit for the active j
duties of social business life. It is a rel-!
ic of the dark ages, a falsehood palm
ed off by Popery upon the Protestant
world. It is fal *e to nature. God ;
has not so arranged it ir. the family
circle. It is false to lhe best interests
of society, and to the finer feelings of
our nature. It has never “been good
for man to be alone.” No man has been
long connected with an exclusively
male school without deeply feeling the
need of woman’s refining influence;
nor, on the other hand, is woman in
dependent of man in the formation of
her character. Here they aro brought
face to face daily. Here they measure
minds and study character while reck
ing lessons prepared under a purer '
and more potent stimulus than can be |
derived from any other source. It is I
here that woman begins to feel her ■
true dignity, and to look up, with chas- ;
tened aspirations, refined in the cruei- ;
bie of heart and intellectual effort, to j
her true position—man’s superior in |
the home circle, and bis equal in soci- j
ety; and, it is here that the young
man steps forth upon the proud arena,
and with a holier emulation than
thrills the breast of t ither sox, when
contending alone, he struggles for po
sition, feeling that the eyes of pure and
faithful women are upon him; and j
that a chaplet of flowers or a wreath
of laurel would soon fudo upon his j
brow, shut out from her approving j
smile. The Spartan mother stood by J
the son and brother when he fought,
and for centuries the temple of liberty
asked for no other walls.than his sword,
bis shield, and las valor.

Bi' C. P. BRANCH.
Once on a time the Days of the' week
Quarrelled, and made bad weather;
The question was which of them all
was best,
So tHey ..1 i it top u lull together.
And Monday said: “I wash the clothes,
And Tuesday said: “i dry ’em.”
And Wednesday s.iid: “I iron the
shirts.”
Ami Thursday saids ‘ f l fry ’em
Said Friday: “I’m the day for fish.”
Said Saturday: ‘ children love mb ’
And Sunday said: “I’m the Sabbath-
Day,
I’m sure there are none above me.”
One declared he was made for prayer—
Another for keeping treasure.
Some of them said: M\ e are best for
work.
And some: “We are best for pleas
ure.”
Now its they quarrelled, their temper
rose,
And all of ’em screamed together;
They blew, and ruiind, and hailed, and
snowed,
There never was seen such weather.
j Old Father Time was passing along,
And heard the hurly-burly:
; Said he: ‘ Here’s something going
wrong
It's w ell I got up so early/
| “These children of mine have lost their
wits,
Or are trying to box the compass.
Who ever heard such a Babel clack f
Halloo, there ! Stop your rumpus 1
“You, Sunday. Hr, with your starched
cravat,
Black gown, and church-veneering.
Tell me the cause of this angry spat —-
Speak plain—l’m hard of hearing l
“You are the loudest speaker here,
The wisest, too, you should bi;
j I little thought such a mighty fuss
As you are making couid be.”
1 Then Sunday said:* “Good Father
Tim.?,
The matter’s as plain as noonday.
: For eighteen hundred years and more
The Lord's Day has been Sunday.
“The church—” Here Monday blurt
ed out,
“The folks aro glad when you leave
’em;
I They all want me, to go on with their
work,
And the pleasures of which you be
reave ’em.”

; But Tuesday said: “I finish } our work,
And do it as fine as a fiddle.”
And Wednesday said: “I'm thobost of
j . the days,
Because i stand in the middle.”
And Thursday, Friday, Saturday, nil
Said something I can’t remember;
And so they migat have aigued tin*
case
Fr jm New-V tar's to December.
But Father Time, he cut them Rbort:
“My children, why this bo her ?
Your natural gifts are all the snirro—
O' e day's just like another.
“To God’s great eye all shine alike,
As in your primal beauty.
That day is best whose deeds are
That worst that fails in duty. * •*
