HOG CHOLERA CURE AND
PREVENTIVE.
I )R0MPTED hy a desire (o benefit our coun
try, and also to establish an important
tut in science, we have concluded to offer to
the pbllc the above named remedies for the
cure and prevention of Hog Cholera. Medical
gentlemen of skill and experience began a sc
ries of examinations when the cholera first
began in this country; after having performed
numerous post mortem examinations upon the
bodies of hogs which had died of cholera,
snd after great research and investigation to
determine the nature of the disease, led by
the lights arising therefrom, they undertook
the cure of the complaint by various remedies;
They found several articles bench rial, but
success was not fully attained to until the
above named medicine was compounded. The
medicine was not sought out for the purpose
of sale, but the great success attending its
use lias induced them to form a company and
obtain a Patent. We offer it as being; tinder
the accompanying directions, fully capable of
arresting any cp: lender of hog cholera, and
prompt in giving relief when properly admin
istered. We confidently believe that the rem
edy is a specific; yet we do not recommend it
ns infallible in all cases, though we have never
known it to fail, cither as a cure or preventive
against tlie further spread of the disease when
Used agreeably to the directions, notwith
standing those free from the disease have been
kept in close proximity with those diseased.
It is a great Toni**, and will successfully
remove Mango. Sore Head and Vermin, either
of which will affect the health of the hog, and
stop his growth and development. Nothing
will make hogs so thrifty as this remedy. We

of the wealth of the country, hut. afford sus
tenance to man. Allow us to add that hog
cholera is but a mild dis- ase when taken in
its early stages with this remedy, which will
also remove worms from the bowels, and If

“There is, however, a measure hy which the

TI1F. CHAIN GANG.
The Governor has found the labor of the
1 Chain Gang convicts unadopted to work on the
I State road, and has employed these laborers in
j connection with the Penitentiary. They have,
| as far as practicable, been employed in out-door
j work, but confined within the walls of the
! Penitentiary at night. The Governor concludes
his views on this subject as follow;:
“After much reflection and a little experi
ence. I a:n satisfied of three things. 1st. That,
owing to the short terms of punishment, no

that the conveniences and advantage; inciden

counties hare had these advantages exclusivc-
lv for more than ten years, we feel assured
that they will, in a spirit of justice and fair

in January next.

claim upon that Government for the use of anil

far liquidated and acknowledged, by that time,
as to be a set off against that indebtedness.—
