which we havo passed, but as the crops
are now being gathered and marketed
and business reviving, we appeal to
each and all who are in arrears to the
office to settle the same at as early a
day as possible. Do not wait for a
personal appeal, but call at the office
or send the amount by registered let

of corn per hour, and the meal is said

Tht* Good Templars.
The meeting of the Grand Lodge,
Good Templars at West Point was
one of the most enthusiastic and har
monious ever held in this state. The
people of West Point with open hearts
and open homes extended to the mem
bers the most lavish hospitality. No
people in the state are more hospitable
or kind than the people of West
Point.
The most interesting question before
the grand lodge was the colored ques
tion. The almost unanimous voice of
the grand lodge in adopting the ‘Hick
man’ basis of settlement evidences the
fact that it is acceptable to the people
of the south.
The election of officers gave general

Judgment ofthe Public!
During the past five years the public have
carefully observed the wonderful cures accom
plished from the use of VEGETINE. From its
use many an afflicted sufferer has been restored
to perfect health, after having expended a small
fortune in procuring medical advice and ob
taining poisonous mineral medicines.
Its medical properties are Alterative, Tonic,
Solvent and Diuretic. There is no disease of
the human system for which the VEGETINE
cannot he used with perfect safety, as it does
not contain any metallic or poisonous com
pound. It is composed exclusively ot barks,
roots and herbs; it is very pleasant to take;
every child likes it. Jt is safe and reliable, as
the following evidence will show:
Valuable Evidence.
The following unsolicited testimonial from
Rev. O. T. Walker, D. ]>., formerly pastor of
Bowdoin Square Churcli, Boston, ami at present
settled in Providence, It. 1., must he deemed as
reliable evidence. No one should fail to observe
that this testimonial is the result of two years’
experience with the use of VEGKTINIO in the
Rev. Mr. Walker’s family, who now pronounces
it invaluable:
Providence, R. 1., IGI Transit Street.
H. It. Stevens, Esq.:
J feel bound to express with my signature the
high value I place upon your VEGETINE. IWy
family have used it for the last two years. In
nervous debility it is invaluable, and I recom
mend it to all who may need an invigorating,
renovating tonic. O. T. WALKER,
-f ormerly Pastor of Bowdoin Square Church,
Boston.
A Walking Miracle.
Mr. 11. R. Stevens:
Dear Sir —Though a stranger, I want to in
form you what Vegetine has done for me.
Last Christinas Scrofula made its appearance
in my system large running ulcers appearing
on me, as follows: One on each of my arms,
one on my thigh, which extended to the seat,
one on my head, which eat into the skull bone,
one on my left leg, which became so bad that
two physicians came to amputate the limb,
though upon consultation concluded not to do
so, as my whole body was so full of Scrofula;
they deemed it advisable to cut the sore, which
was painful heyoml description, and there was
a quart of matter run from this one sore.
The physicians all gave me up to die, and
said they could do no more for me. Both of my
legs were drawn up to my seat, and it was
thought if I did get up again 1 would be a crip
ple for life.
When in this condition I saw VEGETINE
advertised, and commenced taking it in March,
and followed on with it until I had used six
teen bottles, and this morning I am going to
plough corn, a well man. All my townsmen
say it is a miracle to see me round walking aud
working.
In conclusion I will add, when I was endur
ing such great suffering, from that dreadful
disease. Scrofula, 1 prayed to the Lord above to
take me out of this world, but as Vegetine has
restored to me the blessings of health, I desire
more than ever to live, that I may be of some
service to my fellow-men, and I know of no
better way to aid suffering humanity, than to
inclose you this statement of my case, with an
earnest hope that you will publish it, and it
will afford me pleasure to reply to any com
munication which I may receive therefrom.
1 am, sir/very respectfully,
WILLI AIM PAYN.
Avery, Berrien Cos., Mich., July 10,1872.
Reliable Evidence.
Mr. H. R. Stevf.ns :
Dear Sir I will most cheerfully add my testi
mony to the great number you have already re
ceived in favor of your great and good medicine,
VEGETINE, for 1 do not think enough can bo
said in its praise, for 1 was troubled over 30 years
with that dreadful disease, Catarrh, and liad
such bad coughing spells that it would seem as
though 1 could never breathe any more, and
VEGETINE ha?, cured me; and I do feel to
thank God all the time that there is so good a
medicine as VEGETINE, and 1 also think it one
of the best medicines for coughs and weak,
sinking feelings at the stomach, and advise
everybody to take the VEGETINE, for I can
assure them it is one of the best medicines that
ever was.

Mineral Pi’operty
THE UNDERSIGNED is now prepared to
test Mineral Ore of aoy description.
Owners of Mineral Property and others in
terested, can now have their ore tested and
the value of their property determ ind at a
small coat by sending a sample of their ore
to the undersigned, an old experienced assay
ed In this way some of the best mines in
Georgia have been discovered and found to be
rich, when the owner of the property did not
know that he had anything but rocks on his
farm. We advise every farmer in North
Georgia to gather a sack of the rocks on his
place, and briug them in for examination.
We give our opinion at once gratis; then if
thought advisable to make a chemical test,
the charge will be light.
