R BA D TT is well known to I Doctors and to Ladies that Women are subject to numvrous diseases pe- fc collar to their sex—such as Suppression of the Menses, Whites, Painful TM.W& M’nthly ‘Periods,’ Rheu niatism of the Back and Womb, Irregular Men- iaiH/f struatiou, Hemorrhage, or Ei.cc.--ivc ‘Flow.’ and Prolapsus Uterior Fall ing of the Womb. These diseases havesel dom been treated successfully. The profession has sought dillirently for some remedy that wo’ld enable them to treat these diseases with success. At last, that remedy ha* been discovered by one of the most skilful physicians in the State of Georgia. The remedy Is Bradfield’s Female Regulator. It is purelv vegetable, and is put up in Atlan ta, by BRAbFIELD ft CO. It will purify the blood and strengthen the system, relieve irritation of the kidneys, and is a perfect specific for all the above diseases; as certain a cure as Quinine is in Chills and Fevers. For a history of diseases, and certificates of its worderful cures, the reader is referred to the wrapper around the bottle. Every bottle war ranted to give satisfaction or money refunded.

BRAD- I FIELD’S FEMALE REGULATOR, and eon ! aider it the best combination ever gotten to gether for the diseases for which it is recom mended. I have been familiar with the pre scription both as a practitioner of medicine in domestic practice, and can honestly say that 1 consider it a hoou to suffering females, and can but hope that every lady in our whole land, who may be suffering in any way peculiar to their sex, may be able to procure a bottle, that their sufferings may not only be relieved, but that they mar be restored to "health & strength.

LAWSIIE, Atlanta, Ga. W. ROOT ft SON, Marietta, Ga. DR. PROPHITT’S Celebrated Liver Medicine. It is purely vegetable, and will act upon tho Liver and Kidneys as promptly as Calomel and Buchu, without any danger of salivation or de struction of the bones. Parties taking the medicine need not fear get ting wet, or any other reasonable exposure. Symptoms of Liver Disease: Headache, Dull Feeling or the Blues, Sour Stom ach, Sick or Nervous Headache, Heartburn, In digestion or Dyspepsia, Bad or Bitter Taste in the Mouth, the skin has a thick, rough feeling, and is darker than usual, Costiveness, Melan choly Feelings, Cramps, Cold Feet, Colic, Dys entery, or Diarrhoea, Chills and Fever, and Piles. In fact, where the Liver is out oferder, you are liable to every disease that is not conta gious. Prophitt’s Liver Medicine, if taken properly, will prevent and cure any disease resulting from a deranged liver. It will regulate its functions and thus cure all diseases caused by the failure of its healthy ac tion. It has been used for a great number of years, and has given universal satisfaction. There is no brother or son claiming to have the origional recipe. It is put up in both Pow der and Fluid form. Fairburn, Ga., Sept. 4, 1868. DR. O. S.

CARTERSVILLE, GA. feb. 7, 1871.w1y Dr. SCHEVCK Advises Consump tives to go to Florida in Winter. Having for the last thjrty-five vears devoted my whole time and attention to‘ the studv of lung diseases and consumption, I feel that f un derstand fully the course that ought to be pur sued to restore a tolerably bad case of diseased lungs to healthy soundness. The first and most important step is for the patient to avoid taking cold, and the nest of all places on this continent for this purpose in winter, is Florida, well down in the State, where the temperature is regular, and not subject to such variations as in more Northern latitudes. Palatka is apoint I can re commend. A good hotel is kept*there bv Petef man. Last winter I saw several persons there whose had been badly diseased, but who, under the healing influence of the climate and my medicines, were getting well. One hundred miles further down the river is a point which I Would prefer to Palatka, as the temperature is more even and the air dry and bracing. Mellonville and Enterprise are loca ted there. I should give a decided preference to Mellonville. It is two miles from river or lake, and it seems almost impossible to take cold there. The tables in Florida might be better, and pa tients complain at times but that is a good sign, as it indicates a return of appetite, and wh en this is the case they generally increase in flesh, and then the lungs must heal. Jacksonville, Hibernia, Green Cove, and many other places in various parts of Florida, can be safely .recommended to consumptives in winter. M.v reasons for saying so are that patients are less liable to take cold there than where there is a less even temperature, and it is not necessary to say that where a consumptive person exposes himself to frequent colds he is certain to die shortly. Therefore my advice is, go well down into the State out of reach ol the prevailing east winds and logs. Jacksonville, or almost any other of the localities l have named, will benefit those who are troubled with a torpid liver, a dis ordered stomach, derauged bowels, sore throat or cough, but for those whose lungs are diseased a more southern point is earnestly recommend ed. For fifteen years prior to 1869, I was profes sionally in New York, Boston. Baltimore aud Philadelphia every week, where I saw and ex amined on an average five hundred patients a week. A practice so ejftensive, embracing ev ery possible phase of lung disease, has enabled me to understand the disease fully, and hence, my caution in regard to taking cold. A person may take vast quantities of “Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup, Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills,” and yet die if he does not avoid taking cold. In Florida, nearly every body is using Schenck’s Mandrake Pills, for the climate is more likely to produce billious habits than more northern latitudes. It is a well established fact that natives of Florida rarely die of consump tion, especially those of the southern part. On the other hand, in New England, one third, at least, of the population die of this terrible dis ease. In the Middle States it does not prevail so largely, still there are many thousands of ca ses there. IVhat a vast percentage of life wotid be saved if consumptives were as easily alarm ed in regard to taking fresh cold as 'thev are about scarlet fever, small pox, ftc. But they are not. They take what they term a little cold, which they are credulous enough to believ® will wear off in a few days. They pay no attention to it, and hence it lays the foundation for anoth er and another still, until the lungs are diseased beyond all hope for cure. My advice to persons whose lungs are affected even slightly is, to lay in a stock of Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup, Schenck’s Seaweed Tonic and Schenok’s Mandrake Pills and go to Flo*kia. I recommend these particular medicines becauel am thoroughly acquainted with their action. I know that w here they are used in strict accoitl ance with my directions they will do the w’ork that is required. This accomplished, nature will do the rest. The physician who prescribes for cold, cough or night-sweats, and then advises the patient to walk or ride out everv day, xvi 11 be sure to have a corpse on his hands ’before long. My plan is to give my three medicines’ in ac cordance with tne printed directions, exceut :in some cases where a freer use of ;he Mandrake Pills is necessary. My object is to give tone to the stomach—to get up a good appetite. It is al ways a good sign when a patient begins to grow hungry. I have hopes of such. With a relis h for tood and the gratification of that relish comes good blood, and with it more flesh, which iscloso- Ty followed by a healing of the lungs. Then the cough loosens and abates, the creeping chill* and clammy night-sweats no longer prostrate and annoy, and the patient gets well, provided xe avoids taking cold. Now there are many consumptive who have net the means to go to Florida. The question may be asked, is there no hope for such?.' Cer tainly there is. My advice to such is, and ever has been, to stay in a warm room during winter, with a temperature of about seventy degrees, which should be kept regularly at that point, by means of a thermometer. Let such a patient take his exercise within the limits of the rooea by walking up and down as much as his strength will permit, in order to keep up a healthy circu latiou of the blood. I have cured thousands by this system, and can do so again. Consumption is as easily cured as any other disease if it is ta ken in time, and the proper kind of treatment is pursued. The fact stands undisputed on record that Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup. Mandrako Pills, wnd Seasweed Tfmic Have cured very many of what seemed to be hopeless- cases of consump tion. Go where you will, you will be almost cer tain to find some poor consumptive who has been rescured from the very jaws of death by their use. So far as the Mandrake Pills are concerned, every boky should keep a supply of them on hand. " hey act oh the liver better than calomel, and leave none of its hurtful effects behind. In fact thev are excellent in all cases where medicine is required. If you have partairen too freely of fruit and diarrhoea ensues, a dose of the Mandrakes will cure you. If you are subject to sick headache, take a dose of the Mandrakes and they will relieve you in two hours. If you would obviate the effect of a change of water, or the too free indulgence in fruit, take one of the Mandrakes every night or every other night, and you may then di-ink water and eat water in el lons, pears, apples, plums, peechesor corn, with out the risk ofbeing made sick by them. They will protect those who live in damp situations against chills and fevers. Try them. They are perfectly harmless. They can do von good onlv. I have abandoned my professional visits to Boston and New York, but continue to see pa tients at my office, No. 15 N. SIXTH street, Phil adelphia. every Saturday, from 9 a. m. to 2 r. m. Those who wish a thorough examination with the Respirometer will be charged five dollars.— The Respirometer declares the exact condition of the lungs, and patients can readilv learn whether they are curable or not. But I desire it distinctly understood that the medicines de pends-upoathair being taken strictly according to directions. In conclusion, I will say that when persons take my medicines and their systems are brought into a healthy condition thereby, thev are not so liable to take cold, yet no one with diseased lungs can boar a sudden change of at mosphere without the liability ofgreater or less irritation of the bronchial tubes. Full directions in all languages accompany my medicines, so explicit and clear that a ay c>rua can use them without consulting me, and can be bought from-auy druggist. J. ft. SCHEXCK, M. D. No. 15 N.

Louisville, Ky., April 28,1188 A. Remarkable Vision—A Train of I'ara in tbe Air. Some time before bis death, the late Robert Evvalt was returning home to Mount Vernon in the dusk of the eve ning, on the Dele ware road, on foot; and when he reached the “white bridge,” about a mile west of town, he heard the shrill whistle of a locomotive, accompanied by that peculiar rattling noise that always heralds an approach ing train of ears. He was startled by the sounds, and more especially from the fact that he was partially deaf, and could only hear the whistle of a loco motive and the noise of a train when very close to him. He suddenly paus ed and looked around him, but saw nothing unusual; but the sounds be coming more destiuct he looked up, and very clearly beheld a train of cars passing through the air at a remarka ble speed, going in the direction of Mount Vernon. The traiu was crowd ed with passengers, who appeared to be as happy as birds on the wing, and waved their haudkerchiefs to Mr. Ewalt from the windows as they passed by him. Mr. E. hastened home and rela ted what he saw to his family, and as the vision gave him great trouble, his family endeavored to persuade him that he was mistaken, and that he should give himself no uneasiness on the subject. But he declared he could not be mistaken; that he was wide awake, and that his mind was clear and his body free from sickness at the time. We have given the facts as they have been reported to us, but shall leave all comment for those who believe “spirit ual manifestations” and supernatural occurrences.— Mt. Vernon ( Ohio) Ban ner. tCongressman Beck tells the fol lowing ‘good one' on himself: ‘Whilst crossing the Kentucky river, on a trip to Mercer county, the wind blew vio lently, and our congre&sraan, not ac customed to a sea-fairing life, was tomewhat doubtful of the ferryman’s ability to ‘cross the stormy water,’ the boatman being a sharp shrewd youth named Crouch. So Mr. Beck asked if he could do anything to help him ‘Yes’ said Crouch, ‘take hold of the railing and pull the boat up stream all you can ’ Whereupon the stalwart lawyer laid hold of the railing and pull ed and tugged with all his might till the boat touched the landing. After receiving the ferriage, Crouch said: ‘You’re Mr. the Congressman, ain’t you?’ ‘Yes, answered Mr. Beck, in his friendly way. ‘Then,’ said tbe young rascal, ‘you’re the d—dst fool for a smart man, I ever saw. Pulling 8t the "railing to move the boat!’ It was too good to be lost, and Mr. Beck told it as soon as he got to town. A Tough Goose Story. —There once lived in one of our Northern towns, not many miles from Conway. New Hampshire, an eccentric individual by the name of Fogg, whose fame, as a story teller, was known for many miles around. Here is one: “My home was .situated in a glen, some six miles dis tant from file stage road. Between Conway and where I lived was a pond six miles in circumference. It so hap pened, one time early in the sjjring, I had been out late, and coming home I discovered a flock of geese as they were just alighting in the pond. Ris ing eailv the next morning, I built my fire in the fireplace, and taking down the shooting iron, started to the pond to try my luck. Arriving at the shore, I found to my sorrow that they were out of gunshot and to fire at that dis tance would be a sheer folly. While I stood contemplating what to do, a fox came down to the- water’s edge and stood snuffing the air. M y first thought was to shoot him, but on re flection I concluded to see what ha would do. The fox in the u. eantime entered the water and was swimming for the geese, which were huddled to gether about half a mile from the shore. After swimming within a few yards of them, he suddenly dieap peared, and in a few moments a goose was drawn under the water, then Rey nard returned on his homeward pas sage, and landed his burden on the shore; then returning again brought another, until finally he got the whole flock; and when he brought the last one I shot him. When I came to pick up the geese I found that 1 had fifty good nice ones; which I lugged home, together with the fox and my gun.— The old woman hud got breakfast quite ready then/’ “But, Mr. Fogg,'the fox to capture the geese had to swim half a mile for each goose; consequently the fox swam fifty miles, and the geese averaged six pounds apiece, making the sum of three hundred pounds, to say nothing of the fox and the gun; the thing was impossible. ,r “Impossible or not, ev ery word of it is truth,” exclaimed the old man, “and I can prove it by more than a dozen of my neighbors, to each of whom I sold feathers enough to fill a bed !” Exchange. t&r It. is worthy of remark that the presses which raise the cry of “Bur bon” against such Democrats as Lin ton Stephens and General Toombs are the official org.ms of Bullock.

Editors and Proprietors. A Faithful Home C'omrfi 111* Corpse Home. Dr. William Burdett, who resides at No. 339 South Cherry street, died ut C o'clock last evening under the most peculiar circumstances. About half an hour previous to his demise he had driven to the residence of Conductor Edward Wells, near the Decatur De pot, who lay very ill of inflammatory rheumatism. After leaving some in structions with his patient he got in to his buggy and started homeward. Sudden death, like a stroke of lighfc- ning, overtook him, prouubly before he had driven more than a few hun dred yards, and the late living, speak ing human being who, a few moments before, had talked calmly and quietly, after his usual manner, to a patient and that patient’s family, and bad even joked with a little boy whom he met by the street side as he entered his buggy, still sat stark and stiff upright upon his seat, the reins clutched in his hands, staring eyes lookiug out upon the street driving homeward—a corpse. Father of us all, what was it that those who met that horse and vehicle saw in the face of the driver that made them shudder and hurry on a little faster.— Death looked out from those lifeless eyes, and it was he who guided the un knowing horse plodding on towards his late masters door, and those who looked into that vehicle felt a something aw ful aud indefinable which made them shudder, perhaps, and hasten involun tarily forward. The horse drew up at the familiar hitebing r post, but no mas ter descended, and he stood gently pawing the ground, anon jerking the lines, but he got no answer to these signals, however often repeated. No familiar voice which had so often chid ed or cheered him in long jaunts.— Then he pricked back his ears aud jerked the reins a little harder, and listened, but there was no response, save the grating of the leather over the dash board. What could it all mean ? And now Mrs. Burdett looks out of the window and says, “Well, 1 declare, the Doctor’s come, but why don’t he get out ?” She looks a mo ment, but he doseu’t move, aud she says perhaps he wants something, and then she trips out to tne street, looks up into the buggy and says, “Well, William, **hat is it?” No answer.— And then she bends forward a little, and the light shines fuller on the fig ure there. It is her husband, but the face is liv- and and the eyes blindly star ing. “William! oh, Willifim 1” And she grasps nim by the hands, still clutching the reins, they are cold and stiff. He is dead. Ob, awful event, thut to you, gentle reader, shall never happen, to have one very dear to you, life of your life, ride dead to your door on a quiet evening—let us draw a curtain of solemn respect over that widow’s sorrow. Through the assistance of several gentlemen _r. Burdett’s body was ta ken into the house, where Coroner Brien held an inquest over his remains. The jury returned a verdict that he came to his death from d;seiHe of the heart. Dr. Burdett was an excellent physi cian aud was highly esteemed. He was formerly a resident of Giles coun ty, but had been a resident of Nash ville for several years. —Nashville Ban ner. A Touching Incident.— All the Sun day school scholars know the charming little hymn, “Yes, Jesu* loves me.” Its beauty and simplicity was never more forcibly illustrated than by an incident which happened at the Sunday school of the first Baptist Church. We re late it as it was given to us from an authentic source. The class of little children, under the religious instruc tions of a good teacher, had as a les son the committing of that little hymn to memory. All the class had mas tered the simple words aud melody of the hymn excepting one, a little girl, whose reason had been dethroned and whose ideas of material things had never found expression in earthly things. In vain did her teacher try to get hei memory to master the words of the song, and all that she could re collect alier several teachings was the last chorous, “I know Jesus loves me.” This she repeated and re-ropeated with a pathos which affected the teach er and the class, exemplifying the scripture: “Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings has thou perfected praise.” The fact is there, aud it is for iufidelity to point out who is the Jesus thut ioves this litttle idiotic child, whose memory only goes back to the fact that “Jesus loves her.” “Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.” Then is a man in Camden, N. J., who is provoked. He is absent-minded.— A few nights ago he went out to drive his cow. Arriving at the pasture ground, he found that the cow was gone, but the bcli which had been mound her neck, was tying on the ground, lfe placed it in his pocket and forgot all about it Every now and then it would give a smothered jingle, and would think it was his cow, and would start off in a different direction. He followed the bell as he thought until twelve o’clock that night, aud walked 20 miles. When he reached home the cow had been there five or 6ix hours, and his wife had gone over to Phila delphia to advertise for him in the ‘Lost aud Found’ column of the Ledger. Perhaps he wasn’t mad when he found that bell in his pocket. A dog is counted mad when he won’t take something to drink, and a man when he takes too much. “By Crack ark yehuman salvation were contingent upin any ex traordinary Hct-of individual fvrowess; if it wore to l>c obtained with money, or by fanning piignmnges, or painful self-denials, or severe personal sacriti ooa, there would be far less iodifTererco in regard to it on tho part of the great body of mankind. The minds of men have ever been most impressed by those things requiring most of brilliant dash and exploit, and those objects obtaiued under the greatest difficul ties have been supposed to possess most of trinsic merit. We see this principle often illustrated in every day common-places of life. An idea pre vails among many that price alone regulates value, and that therefore anything easy of attainment is com paratively worthless. A name goes a long way sometimes, and in u.« scan tile transactions people have been known to pay twice the worth of an article at one store, under the false idea that be cause a certain merchant sold it, if must necessarily be better than if bought at some less noted place,— Great deference has often been paid to the descendants of great men be cause of a superstition that greatness is inherited or transmitted from sire to son. Things supposed to bo common, have ever been held in disrepute.— The Son of God himself, because he came in the guise of poverty and ob scurity, was scorned and rejected of men, and the very commonness of sal vation renders it unacceptable to the VO. 33. masses. If Heaven were only attaina ble to a select few, and they allowed to prescribe the terms of getting there, it would be a very desiruble place in the estimation of some people; but. forsooth, because) the Celestial Gates are open to all, the scheme is entirely too common ! We thank God that salvation is not dependent upon any great deed, nor attainable only to a select few, but that it is as free as the air we breathe, or the water we drink, or the beautiful sunshine we behold.— It is free gift of Heaven to fallen men, purchased by the precious blood of Christ, and all that is necessary to do to obtain it, is to ask for, and reach forth the hand and grasp it. It is true that good works ore important and praiseworthy, but in themselves they convey no right or title to the incor ruptible inheritance. They are mere attendants upon the acceptance and possession of the great boon, bnt when relied upon for saving efficacy they become as filthy rags. “By gracb are ye saved, and that not of your selves; it is the gift of God through our Lord Jesus Christ.” “In my hand no price I bring— Simply to this Cross I cling.” A Good Joke on Editors. —Soon af ter Chief Justice Chase (then a Whig) assumed the gubernatorial chair in Ohio, he issued his proclamation ap pointing a thanksgiving day. To mako sure of being orthodox, the gov ernor composed his proclamation al most exclusively of passages from the bible, which he did not designate as quotations, presuming that every one would recognize them* and admire the words as well as his taste in their se lection. The proclamation meeting the eyes of a democratic editor, bo pounced-at onee upon it—declared he had read it before—couldn’t sny ex actly where—but he would take his oath that it was downright plagiarism from beginning to end. That would have been a pretty fair joke; but the' uext day the Whig editor cam 6 out valiantly in defence of the governor,, pronounced the charge false and libel ous, and challenged any man living to produce one single line of the procla mation that ever had appeared in print before. — Columbus Statesman. Unitersalism in a Nutshell. — I have; often seen Utuversalism reduced to an absurdity. But seldom, if ever, has it been better done than in the following, which I beg to recite for the benefit of ; any who may need it: “I aam Universalis!,” said G. XL, boastingly, “aud you orthodox are nut fair in saying that our system is incon sistent with reason.” This he address ed to one who held an opposite sys tem. “But I will prove the irrationality of your system,” said his friend. “You believe that Christ died to save all men ?” “Yes, I do.” “And jou don’t believe there is a hell ?” “No, I do not.” “You don’t believe there is any pun ishment hereafter V' “No, do not; men are punished for their sins in this life.” “Well, now, let us put our ‘rational’ system together if we can. It amounts to just this : that Christ, the Saviour, died to save all men from nothing at all! Not from hell, because, accord ing to you, there is none. Not from punishment in a future state of being, for he receives his whole punishment in this life. Yours is the absurd spectacle of ropes and life preservers tnrown at an immense expense to a man who is on dry land, and in no danger of being drowned. Let me tell you that your religion is stark in fidelity. If you heartily believe the Bible you could not believe Universal ism.”— Central Presbyterian.
