DR. JOHN BULL—Dear Sir:—l have recently giv
en your “Worm Destroyer” several trials, and find It
won,lerfully efficacious. It lias not failed in a single
instance, to have the wighed-fbr effeer. lam doing a
pretty large country practice, and have daily use for
some article of the kind. lam free to c- lifess that I
know of no remedy recommended by theablest authors
that is so certain and speedy in its rffects. On thecon
trary they are uncertain in tne extreme. My object
in writing Jon is to Und out upon what, terms I can
get the medicine directly from you. If I can get it
upon easy terms, I .hall use a great deal of it. lam
aw ire that the use of such articles is contrary to the
teaching, and practice of a great mfjorlty of the* e(/-
ular I ne of M. D.’s, but I see no just cause or good
sense in discarding a remedy which we know to be et
fieient. simply i ecause we may be Ignorant of Its com
bination. For my part, I shall make it a rule to use ail
and any means to alleviate suffering humidity which
I may be able to otnmand—not hesitating because
someone more ingenious than myself may have learn
d its effects first, and secured the sole right tc. secure
hat knowledge. However, lamby no m-ans an ad
vocate or supporter of the thousands of worthless nos
trums that flood the country, that purport to cure all
manner of disease to which hum in flesh is heir.
Please reply soon, and inform me of your best terms.

Shall we gather at the river,
Where bi-ight angel feet have trod;
With i-s crystal tide forever
Flowing by the throne of God ?
Ciio a us.
Yes, we’ll gather at the river,
The beautiful, the beautiful river;
Gather with the saints at the river
That Hows by the throne of G<xl.
On the margin of the river,
Washing up its stiver spray,
We will walk and worshil) . ver,
Ali Ute happy, golden day.
On the bosoin of the river,
AY here the Saviour-king we own.
AVe shall meet and sorrow never
’Neath the glory of the throue.
Ere we reach the shining river,
Lay we every burden,down;
Grace our spirits will deliver.
And provide a robe and crown.
At the smiling of the river,
Rippling with the Saviour’s face,
Saints, whom death will never sever,
Lift their songs of saving grace.
Soon we’ll reach the shining river,
Soon our pilgrimage will cease;
Soon our happy he irts will quiver
AA’ith the melody of peace.
If men were wise in little things.
Affecting less in all their dealings; |
If hearts lmd fewer rusted strings
To isolate their kindly feelings;
If men, when wrong beats down i
their right,
AVould strike together and restore j
it —
If right made might
In every fight,
The world would be the better for it. ■
A Wonderful Southern Discov
ery.
In the South where Liver complaint !
and bilious diseases prevail to such a
great extent, there has long been felt
a need of a medicine that would act
'specifically and promptly on the Liver
restoring it to its normal functions, and
at the same time be safe from after es.
sects, and yet so simple that it might
be used L>v any one. It is claimed tha'
Dr. Tutt’s Vegetable Liver Pills sup
plies this want. They act directly on
the Liver; their constant use will not
injure in the slightest degree the most
delicate constitution. Females at any
period may use them with great bene
fit, and realize great relief from the
distressing nausea which they experi
ence at certain times. These pills tire
not recommended as a ‘universal cure
all, ’ but simply for diseased Liver, and
those maladies which follow a derange
ment of that important organ, such as
Dyspepsia, Sick Headache, Indigestion'
Loss of Appetite, Costiveness, Piles*
Jaundice, Sour Stomach, Ladies Heart
burn, Chills and Fever, Foul Breath,
Restlesuess at night, and Flatulency.—
These invaluable Pills may be found i D
every Drug Store of any note in the
South and AA'est.
A New Year*# Gilt.
Any gentleman that wants to give a
lody friend a present ought to send her
Peterson’s Ladies’ National for 1870
as it promises to be better than ever,
and Peterson alwny ekeeps his promise.
It would be a very interesting and use
ful gift. The January number of this
most excellent Magazine is on our la-
I ble, with two of the most splendid
steel engravings we ever saw. The first
one is called “Parted by Fate,'* and is
accompanied with a very powerful sto
ry by Frank Lee Benedict. The sec
oncl is called “A Bitter Morning,” and
represents two children skating on the
ice. This is one of the most cunning
pictures we have seen for a long time. ;
As for Peterson’s fashion plates, they
can’t be beat. They are engraved on
steel, and are really superb: every lad\ |
ought to see them. AA r e cannot under* |
stand how Peterson can afford tp give
the superb Eerlin patterns ho does, as
everj r color in these patterns lias to be j
printed seperately, which costs exces
sively. AVe speak from personal knowl
edge of the stories of Peterson; they
are always good and interesting. AVe ,
heard that Peterson’s Li dies* Notional
printed more for 1869 than any two ,
cf the Ladies’ Magazines. AVe can
understand this, asPeteison gives more
for the money than anybody in the
field. The price of this magazine is
only $2 a year, w bile tha inducements
to clubs are very great. Specimens
are sent gratis !o those wishing to get ,
up clubs. Address Charles J. Peter- [
son, No. 306 Chestnut Street, Philadel- ■

Letter From Col. Hulbert.
Western & Atlantic Railroad, j
Superintendent s Office, .-
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 25, 1800. )
To His Excellency, Rufus li. Bullock, Govern
or of Georgia:
Sir. —ln response to your inquiry for
my reasons lor non-payment of the
usual amount into the Slate Treasury
for the month of October, from the earn
ings of the Western & Atlantic Rail
road, I have to state that the purchase
of five hundred (500) tons of new ra'ls,
costing thirty thousand ($50,000) dol
lars, to replace a portion of those so
loom as t> h ire become (longeron *, to
I gether with ail unusual nnmbei of
! cross ties received, and paid for at our
1 last estimate, amounting to thirty-three
1 ($53,000) thousand dollars—making a
i total of sixty-three (SU3,UOO) thousand
| dollars—has exhausted our surplus
i means so far as to compel me to post
pone further payment into the Treusu-
I ry until such time as the surplus has
! again reached an amount justifying a
i resunipti >n of payments.
| We have fifty miles of old and badly
j worn raiia, an cany renewal of which
i safety and economy imperatively de
j maud.
This will cost five thousand five hun
dred doiluis per mile, or a total of two
handled an and seventy-five thousand
dollars.
Duhug the i ist fiscal year we have
! laid down nine and one-half uni sos
: new rail of an improved pattern, with
j fish joints, at a total cost of fifty-two
i thousand two hundred and fifty dul
i lars.
Tfii> has been a heavy drain upon
1 our resources, but lias been met, up to
; this time, without interfering with our
regular payments.
j The renewal, however, has not kept
j pace with the rapid deterioration of
I the old rail; hence the necessity of fur
■ tiier immediate and heavy expenditures
| for tiiut purpose.
| During the present month, as before
stated, we have paid thirty- three thou
sand dollars for cross tits.
Requiring some twenty thousand
! cross ties for immediate use, we adver
tised for the same at a slightly inereas- j
jed price, (same as formerly paid),
j which resulted in au unexpected and
unprecedented number being plac. and
j on the lme of toad—a much larger
i number, in fact, than our immediate
I wants icquired: but as the parties fur
nishing them had doue so in good
j faith, it seemed but just that tlwy
I should be paid —especially us, in many ;
I instances, the parties were poor, had i
i exhau.-tud their means in furnishing 1
i them, an i could illy afford to wait un- I
i tii such time as we might need them. j
In numerous caeca mercliantH had '
ni.ppliuu thv.se persons with provisions
"on a cr. art, until such time as thej ,
suouid ix.uei.fci their pay from the roaci.
‘The general failure of the corn crop i
on viie fine of road, do ibt. ss caused a
mm.li larger number to be furnished I
Luun would otherwise have been.
In many instances payment for tin
timber furnished was the only means •
the parties had to enable them to pur- j
chase seed wheat. A postponement
would have caused m.rcu sutfe- mg. ■
Under all the circumstances, it was j
deemed best to pay, and thereby relieve f
tne necessities of those who would oth- j
eiwise have been placed in a distressed j
! condition.
My able and accomplished piedeeos
; nor, Major Campbell Wallace, m his re-
port for 1867, remarks as follows in a
similar case:
“You will observe ti nt t!,«. . mount
reported this year, of mat* r ate un
hand, is greater by tvonty thousand
dollars than for Inst vt-ar. fu thu
straitened and distressed HivinuHtaM
ces of our people, I consult red it nt»t
only my duty, but good poley, to aid,
as far as practicable, such uu lived near
the line of road to sustain end support
their families, without depending mi
the gifts of tiie Hint* or the henevoktxto
of private as: ociations; hen* thoummds
of cross ties and cords of wood, not
needed for imrrediaie use, have been
taken up and paid for.”
Embraced in the expenditures at
this time is the cent of a Howe Tin**
Bridge, at Allatooim Creek, to replace
| the one substituted for the cutvefi,
, long since fallen down from infer*?,
workmanship. ,
The necessary removal of the debt t*
:of the culvert will also involve a cm>-
sideruble expenditure, to be paid fqr
as the work progresses.
While on .he subject of expendi
tures, which are immediately necessa
ry, permit me to remit and your Excellen
cy of the pressing demand upon ns for
the erection of fire proof shops. The
temporary wooden buildings. at pres
ent occupied for that purpose, are ex
tremely dangerous and are rapi'Uy
falling into decay. Within the butt
year they have been accidentally on
fire, but it was fortunately discovered,
in time to save the buildings, together
with their valuable contents, and there
by heavy loss to the State.
The very high rate charged by insu
rance companies for risks upon build*
mgs of this character, filled with valua
ble machinery, and generally crowded
with locomotives and cars, undergoing
repairs, the premium—amounting as it .
would to several thousand dollars
would in a few years erect first-clou
tire-proof buildings.
I cannot better state the very great
importance of a liberal expenditure for
their erection, than to quote from the
Anual Report for 1867, of Mnj. (.’amp
bell Wallace, in which lie says:
‘I would recommend the immediate
substitution of brick buildings, as near
fire-proof as practicable, ft r these un
safe wooden structures. These build
ings are of such combustible material,
that we are in constant danger of se
rious loss by fire; and, although Atlan
ta can, with truthfulness, boast os
prompt and faithful firemen as any city
on the globe; and, although our tracks
are so arranged that, in case of lire,
the larger portion of engines and cars
could be removed beyond its ravages.
Such a casualty could not occur with
out loss of machinery, shop tools, and
material, greatly beyond the entire cost
of the buildings. W r ere the State Road
my individual piop ity, I would not
divest another dollar of its earnings,
for any purpose whatever, uu il all ov r
shops, ami a suitable found, fy in addi
tion, were erected on the most irnprov
e 1 plan of fire-proof buildings.”
The pressing and m nd for the erection
fa Union purser? erde a this place
for the comfort un . on Venn ice of the
: traveling public should not be longer
I overlooked.
The commencement of the work is
delayed by the prepaints- nos the plans
and Kjseciflcations.
It will cost from seventy-five to one
hundred thousand dollars.
This Road's proportion of the cost
will have lo he met at an «srly day.
