BIG INVENTION.
Loyd, the famous map man, who
made all the maps for General Grant
and the Union army, certificates of
which he published, has just invent
ed a way of getting a relief plate from
steel so as to print Loyd’s Map of
the American Continent —showing
from ocean to ocean—on one entire
sheet of bank note paper,4oxso inches
large on a lightning press,and colored,
sized and varnished for the wall so
as to stand washing and mailing any
where in the world for 30 cents, or
unvarnished for 25 cents. This map
shows the whole United States and
Territories in a group, from serveys
to 1875, with a million places on it,
such as towns, cities, villages, moun
tains, lakes, rivers, streams, gold
mines,| railway stations, &c. This
map should be in every house. Send
30 cents to the Loyd Map Compa

a copy by return mail.
The Augusta Constitutionalist ,
learns that a bit of rumpus occurred
their, the facts of which are about as
follows:
One Sabbath, whilst the daughter
of Mr. Fitzpatrick was walking along
the pavement she was rudely pushed
offit by a negro girl, whereupon a
warrant for assault and battery was
sworn out against the negro. She
was tried and held to bail, in de
fault of which she was sent to jail.
To this a mob of twenty or thirty
excepted, and assembled on Monday
on the outskirts of town, with
threats expressed of rescue. To this
the military company of the town ex
cepted, moved upon their position,
which was carried, and fourteen pris
oners taken and locked up in the
Court-house, which will end the
matter in all likelihood.
It costs $1,000,000 to build a single
story of the Chicago custom house
with rotton Cincinnati stone, but it
will cost only SIOO,OOO to pull down
the walls and dig up the foundation
thereof. It is a little strange that
the so-called “stone,” of Buenaven
tura, which Cincinnati has long ago
rejected for its on n building purpos
es, should have been selected for the
Chicago Custom house, while the
material for the Cincinnati govern
ment building, now in the course of
erection, is brought all the way from
New England. The explanation
doubtless lies in the fact that the
Buenaventura stuff was too well
known in Cincinnati to make it pos
sible for corrupt government agents
to introduce it further there.
Just as we expected. The peripa
tetic spreeing Press Association of
Georgia, lias played out. Yesterday
week was set for its assemblage in
Athens, but so few attended that a
quorum could not be made up to do
any business. The “Patent Out
siders,” “one of whom we are which,”
were ostracized, and now you see
what you have come to. If we had
taken an interest in the business,you
might have had enough to engineer
v/uir 1 -*—**-*“& t.mui.
In truth we see no object iu a Press
Association, as now managed. If ev
er one has done anything to benefit
journalism, we have yet to learn it;
and w T e hope it will never be resusci
tated.
The following correspondence has
passed between the proprietor of the
Danbury News, Mr. Donovan, and

E. A. EcGeaehy: Unless I have re
turned to me, within two days, the
volume of Menainin’s Encyclopedia ,
taken by you from this office I will
take such steps as w ill either lead
to its recovery or unpleasant conse
quences to yourself. T. Donovan.”
“To Timothy Donovan : Unless you
retract, within one-half an hour,
through the same medium, your
vile calumny against me, I will pub
lish you as a reckless and. malicious
liar. C. E. A. McGreachy.”
The Postmaster general has issued
an order modifying postal regulations
by striking out that part proving
that no subscription to newspapers
for less than three months should
i>e considered a regular subscription
as the written meaning of the law.
The effect of this order is to allow
newspaper offices to send papers to
subscribers at regular rates whether
for ope week or three months. Here
tofore subscribers for less than three

Apropos of Fish’s expected reti
racy,-Grant is accused of relating a
little joke on himself. Tuesday the
President said that when he appoint
ed Fish Secretary, Conkling was
much annoyed and asked him why
he did not appoint Gen. Marcy.
“But Marcy is dead,” said the Presi
dent. “He is not half so dead as
Fish is,” rejoined Conkling with a
cheerful sneer.
Heretofore the great Redwood
trees of California liave*borne off the
palm for hugeness, but the Bruns
wick Appeal gives an account of a
stick of timber which was cut upon
Spanish Creek in Charleton County
Ga., and which was hauled to the
St. Mary’s River in Florida.
It required the combined force of
ten mules and sixteen oxen to haul
it. It was eighty-six feet in length
and squared 36x36 inches. As meas
ured by a sword Survayor, it con
tained 9,280 feet of lumber, and was
sold for $185,60. That will do pretty
well for one stick of Georgia timber.
They iiave a painting of Cincinna
tus in oil—lard oil—on exhibition in
Cincinnati, and are going to have it
caste—in a hog’s eye—in bronze,
and the old fellow will tote a pig un
der each arm. The “bronze” will al
so be of pig metal, and Pig-iron Kel
ly will design the statue. The brass
used will be derived solely from the
sympathy extended the work by
Murat Halstead. It may be well to
state, that though they do up Cin
cinnatus in oil, he was no sardine.

A Cancer Nine Years Standing Cured by l>r. Con
naiigliton.
Db. Connaughton— Dear Sir:—ln accordance with my promise, voluntarily made, I will
give you the result of your treatment performed on a cancer located on my face, near my left
nostril.
Near the corner of my mouth, 1 had a cancer which had been coming for nine years, gradually
extending over my face, and I was greatly annoyed with painful apprehensions as to its alarm
ing ravages. I called on you, who took it out with but slight pain, comparatively a pin scratch.
It was dressed aayou directed, and within six days dropped out by the roots. The operation
was performed with skill, dexterity and judgment, and 1 feel grateful to you for your success.
The place healed rapidly, and now, alter tw r o years, it sill remains well and sound, and scarcely
perceivable. I can, with confidence, recommend your treatment to the afflicted for any of the
specialties you profess to cure.
Very respectfully, your friend,
W. 11. CRITTENDEN.
Holly Springs. Miss, March 31,1870.
XVc certify that, at the request of Major Crittenden, we examined the cancer before he placed
himself under Dr. Connaughton’s treatment, it was about the size of a silver dollar. Dr. Con
naughton cured the cancer as he promised, and proved to the world that cancer is curable.

LUNG DISEASES. [Extract from a letter:]
Dr. Conn aughton, oi New r Orleans—Dear Sir: Seeing that many of your patients have thought
proper to make public the successful treatment of their cases, and as’l am irequently asked my
opinion of the mode of treatment pursued by you, 1 therefore think 1 cannot do better than act
as I have seen so many do before me, and publish a short card relating to my case. In this lam
actuated purely by my gratitude, aud hope that my letter may not only open the eyes of those
suffering as I was previons to seeing you, but that it may be a source of satisfaction to yourself.
For several years I have been suffering from asthma, complicated by several other annoying
ailments; I was much troubled with cough, expectorated yellowish matter; and was losing both
health and strength. My appetite was miserable, aud my sleep was much disturbed; but what
troubled me most was a constant shortness of breath and oppression in the chest. In this state I
consulted you. who, after a careful examination of my etiest, gave it as your opinion that I
could be cured, and 1 accordingly placed myself under your care, and In one month from the
time I commenced your treatment, you dismissed me as cured, aud 1 have felt like anew man
ever since.
Hopipg that these few lines may he themeans of helping others who are troubled with lung
diseases, by giving them renewed hope, and letting them know where they can get the relict
they are so much in need of, (like myself one montn ago.) Yours truly,
A. J. BARNES.
From 11. llolshou.ser, Esq., Fovingioii, Trim.
Dr Connaughton—Dear Sir: Having suffered severely from a throat affection, with a pre
disposition to consumption, for a number of years, and finding no relief in any thing prescribed

From W. Bolivar, Postmaster, Auburn, Ky.
Dr. Connaughton—Dear Sir: All of your patients in this community are rapidly improving,
and a majority are effectually cured. All ot vour patients speak in unbounded praise of your
\ egetable Remedies. Mr. Shannon (the “Shaker,”) told me all of your patients, at South Union
w ere cured by your “wonderful remedies.” Mrs. Cox told my wife that you liad effectually cur
ed her ot a lingering female disease of several years’standing, in nine weeks. Captain Clark
told me that you had effectually cured him ot' a loathsome disease of six years’ standing. Mr.
Bridges says your medicine has nearly cured his daughter; he told me his daughter had been
paralyzed six years; that her voice had failed, and that she could not walk, hut after taking
your vegetable mediciue for eight weeks, she could get up, dress herself, talk as well as ever,
and go about the house. Everybody will regret when you leave. The cancer outlie negroo’s
eye is entirely well. Your treatment has cured my w ife. She says she feels as well as ever.
Your friend,
W. BOLIVAR.
From Rudolph Olasirr, Esq., Hickman, My.
T)*,ah Doctor: My little daughter’s eyes have been seriously diseased lor several vears. Her
eyes were streaming with scalding tears all the time; they were spasmodically closed whenever
exposed to the light, very much inflamed; something like a scum formed over each eve; her
sight was almost gone, and she was reduced in flesh to quite a skeleton, with her general health
much impaired. vV e had her eyes treated l>y the very best physicians in .Evansville, lud., have
paid out a great deal of money, and alter all their drugging she revived no relief. All the above
statements can be substantiated by respectable citizens of Hickman. She has been under vour
reatment lour weeks, and ami proud to say the inflammation is all gone. Shecan bear the light
as well as ever, and, in a word, her eyes are as good and healthy us could he desired. We have
every reason to believe that if the aillicted gencrallv, would give you a fair trial, they too,
would conlirm our statements. It is a difficult matter to induce the affiictcd to set aside old fogy
principles in order to try new ones, which the rapid march ot’ science is introduclnir every day.
Mj wile and I leel grateful to you, and have confidence in your skill, and little Augusta will
never cease to love you for restoring her sight. Your depoitment in our family has nlways
been that of an attentive ard kind hearted gentleman. Your friend,

WONDERFULL CURE-HOME EVIDENCE —FROM SOLOMON COTNER ESQ., A
RESPECTABLE MERCHANT OF TALLAHASSEE, FLA.
Tallahassee, Fla., Dec., 2, ’ 72 .
P. Walter Connaughton, M. D.,-My pear Sir—l consider it a sacred duty to render you
my sincere acknowledgements for the marvelous relief you have effected in my wife’s case,who
has been afflicted with a Chronic Female Disease in its worst form for several years, and w T ill
mention that my only object in rendering you this statement is to call the attention of suffer
ers to your extraordinary method of vegetable treatment, and beg them to lay aside their prej
udices to try your skill, and be cured like my wife has been. I cheerfully give you this testi
mony, and hope it will convert sceptics. The characteristic symptoms of my wife’s case are as
follows: Several months ago she took cold, was suddenly attacked with a complication of dis
eases peculiar to females; we tried all sorts of patent medicines and expended considerable
sums of money with out any benefit. When you came to Tallahassee and promised us a cure,
1 confess my confidence in its success was very small indeed, but I am thankful to an All-wise
Providence for the happy deliverence, and am anxious that others, who are similarly afflicted,
should be made acquainted with these facts, and at least give you atrial. If they do lam sure
they w ill bless the day and thank me for this statement.
My wife has been under your skillful treatment only eight days. She is comparitively well,
and your remedies have effected everything yon promised vrith’very little medicine, and your
’medicines are harmless, effectual and immediate. Your “Herb or Vegetable System” of treat
ing disease is the most harmless,.quick and perfect ever brought to my knowledge.
Dr. 0. lias always shown himself to be a perfect gentleman in my family.
Believe me, with the kindest regards, to be yours truly.

Mrs. Herman Levy and her daughter, Rebeca, are both cured sound and well, by your veg

nnu. t ™'h NA^ HTOlV- ®! A ? Sir:—l have been suffering for alongtime with neuralgiaand dys
-1 epsia, which have resisted the skill ot the best physicians of this country. 1 have expended
a considerable amount of money lor medicines and Doctor’s bills, but derived no benefit until
I placed myself under your skillfull treatment. I was reduced to a skeleton and could scarce
ly walk, owing to extreme general debility. Five weeks ago I commenced your treatment
and am proud to state, for the benefit ot the afflicted, that I am relieved from all mv sufferings.
In a word, lam sound and well, and have increased in flesh thirty-five pounds. "My gcreral
health is better than it lias been £ r years. Please accept the assurance ot my profound esteem
and lasting gratitude. Vou will do me an inestimable act of kindness by accepting the gold
headed cane which accompanies this this note, as an humble token of my gratitude and esteem.
I am, with great regard, your obedient servant. John Donndlly.
A Faneer of 17 Years’ Standing Cured by my
Treatment.
Hickman, Ky., 1868.
I hereby certiily toat 1 have been afflicted with a cancerous affection on my nose for the last
seventeen years. It first appeared as a smail scab, which, alter an indefinite period of time
would drop off, and re-appear slightly enlarged.
Dr. Connaughton examined my cancer and prouounccd it curable. He applied his remedies,
which destroyed the cancer in thirty-six hours, with but very slight pain. 1 shall never cease
to be grateful to the Doctor for curing my cancer, w hich for many years has caused me so much
anxiety ot mind. It is now entirely healed up, and the place scarcely discoverable. The Doc
tor has the cancer in alchohot, which can be seen by calling on him at the Hotel, Hickman
Kentucky. Very respectfully, MRS. M LACY
Cure oi* Consumption.
I)r. Connatghton— Dear Sir:—Feeling thankful for the great benefit you have conferred on
me, I deem it a duty I owe you and the public to give a succinct statement of my disease and
your successful treatment of it.
Some six years since I contracted a Catarrh, which so rapidly undermined my health that I
was compelled to quit my larrn and seek other employment, which somewhat improved me. 1
returned to my larm, but took a severe cold, and the old complaint again attacked me in a
more aggravated and complicated form. My lungs become congested and affected with tuber
cles, and all the alarming symptoms of consumption made their appearance. I bad sligt bleed
ing Irom the lungs, night sweats, an incessant, wearing, hacking cough, and was steadily los
ing flesh and strength. Six of the best physicians of this county and two of Memphis treated me
successively, telling me I had consumption, and that not much could be done lor me beyond
what care and dieting might accomplish.
Ihe last phj sician gave me a tonic, and told me little else could he (lore, except to keen niv
sell warm and dry. 1 was completely prostrated, and not able to work had the time. At this
distressing stage ol my disease, and with little hope of eitier myself or li. y friends, I went un
der your treatment, vvithour promise of cure, hut merely an obligation on vour part to do tho
best you could. 1 lus vvas six weeks ago to-day. Almost Irom the ilr-t application I began to
improve, aud have gamed so rapidly that my cough has ceased, the expectoration discontinued,
the weakness and soreness ot my breast has subsided, aud my strength has Steadily improved
* urthermore.some live weeks since I weighed myself,though wtihout the intention of a test' my
friends aud acquaintances, re marking my healthy appearance of late, caused me to try the
scale again, and I was surprised and delighted to find 1 had gained twenty-seven pounds in the
space mentioned. 1 luc
Hoping this statement may be the means of inducing other sufferers to give your system a fair
and impartial trial, I remain, yours truly. PAUL .TONES.
Wc, the undeisigned, being personally acquainted with Mr. Jones, and cognizant of the facts,
cheerfully certify to the correctness of this statement. * ’

Letter from Mrs. Irene Henderson, Marshall Cos. Miss.
Dr. CoNnaughton—Highly Esteemed Friend: I have been afflicted and suffered more than a
hundred deaths with a disease that two-thirds of the ladies are afflicted with. I had abandoned
doctoring, and was pronounced incurable, and hearing of and seeing so many wonderful cases
which your eminent skill hail restored, I was induced to carefully peruse vour circular on both
S'des- Through your circular and the Influence of several of mV ladv friends, I becamecon
yfneed that you must be a physician of extraordinary attainments. I visited vou at your office
in Holly Springs, aud soon realized everything stated in your circular and by my lady friends.
I resolved to try j-ou any how, though other friends, in their misguided kindness, tried to dis
suade me from doing so.
\on appeared to be extravagant in jour charges, but regardless of expense I engaged treat
ment. > oil arc the kindest, cheapest and best Doctor that I ever met, for you have so perfectly
cured me that I reel ten years younger, uud, in a word, I am a now woman. I had spent *BOO
with other doctors who did not relieve or cure me. I consider any disseac that vou canuot cure
incurable. W ith great regard, ' jj rs . j, ’
P-S.—Mrs. (J. M. begs to be remembered kitullj', and says she is improving very fast" She
says all j our lady patients, so far as she has heard, are well pleased and improving.

The immense numbers of invalids who have called upon DU. COXNAUIITON at the Citv Ho
tel since his arrival at this city-, is the most substantial proof ef his reputation as a physician,
It is an old adage, that. “ Where there is o much smoke, there mr*t be ttome/ire,” aud we know of
our ovvn knowledge that no surgeon ever came among us whose Consultation Parlors have
been thronged daily by such VAST crowds of the afflicted from far and near. Why is Dr.
Connaughton successful? Because he has studied Chronic Diseases and Surgery for a life
time, investigated every.known remedy to science, has new remedies unknown to the world,
treats every case according to the actual condition of the patient— his experience having extend
ed to tensot thousands cases—a greater experience than any other living man, and Anally lie
cause he selects his remedies for each case with such care; uses harmless vegetable agents,
vvhole Ufe Rml energies to making his practice successful, to get his patients
THOROUGHLY AND PERMANENTLY CURED. 1
Owing to the immense rush of patients, the Doctor has been persuaded to change his office
nours to from eight in the morning to seyen in the evening. Come early to avoid the rush.—
