Thi* marvelous remedy cures those terrible head
ache* cleanses the stomach, unloads the bowels,
unlocks the liver, relieves constipation at once, and
rives,the bile a chance to go. It has become tho
popular and standard remedy for constipation, bil
iousness, sick headache, heartburn, acid stomach,
and all diseases requiring a real nice and pleasant
PU lt S nor gripes, aids in oke"oY two
hours, and is just so delightful and refreshing a

It unclouds and cools the brain, quiet%the nerves,
and is a sine qua non for the headache of ladies.
It mitigates the pang 9 of rheumatism and gout,
relieves Sidney and urinary troubles, and pain in
the back. For dyspeptics it acts like a charm, and
has no equal in curing a constipated habit. It is
highly recommended for persons who travel, for
merchants, clerks, mechanics, factory hands, stu

confined life and are subject to headache, dizziness
and tprpid bowels. If you are troubled with a
foul breath, loss of appetite or gen

pleasant and palatable, and is much cheaper, in fact

A WOMAN’S REMEDY.
At certain ages and periods of woman’s life, there
comes contain troubles, aches, pains and sufferings.
1 Irese complaints and irregularities jeopardize the
girl’s life at sixteen, and follow up and haunt the
married woman until after the “ turn of life. .
Some have headaches, swimming of the head,
mental and nervous prostration, blanched cheeks,
bloodless lips, lifeless eyes, clouded brain; while
others ■'uffer with painful irregularities, uterine dis.
placements and ulcers, hysterical spasms, physical
prostration, chronic leucorrhoea, chlorosis, suppres
sions, less of appetite, ovarian diseases, kidney affec*
tions, etc., whicn in numerous cases end in epileptic
fits, convulsions, insanity and death. These are
generally tike result of inattention. All females
know the class of complaints we allude to. Now,
ladies, all these troubles can be averted and cured.
We have proof from thousands.

WHISKY IN' ELECTION!.
Its M >la to Society and Its
astroua to a Free Ballot.
To The Editor of Tut Fi:kk I’rkss—
Hear sir : We ask permission through
your columns Iq say a few words to the
voters of our county, both w Ute and
colored, in regard to the use of w Usky in
our elections. While I attem{>ttj> si>eak
of this great evil with its many |)ad re
sults. I leel sensibly in}' great weakness
and inability to do the subject anf thing
like justice; but, j-et, 1 can sue much
evil arising from its use in elections. So
many difficulties between u* i and
I might truthfully' say between frifnds.
ior in most eases they are friends f lien
sober, but when drinking under tlief usu
al excitement at our electLuns nan be
come enrag and at each other and ot jsn get
into serious difficulties. When wdsee all
tlii.s and at the same time know the
use of whisky in any election In this
state is a strict violation of law , which
law shoukl be obeyed by every v/ter, and
especially by the candidates, a-s liey are
ottering their services, eiltief to make
laws or execute them, it us feel
like speaking out against it, lot with
standing our weekuess it is trite,hs most
of the voters in this county know* that I
was once a candidate myself, amt did as I
can now clearly see bring shape upon
myself by using whisky to seefre votes,
Hvhicb is nothing more or less item bribe
ry, it matters not who does it: but some
mav think that I ought not soinuch op-
' pose a tiling that 1 once favored I sup
pose 1 was then like most of lur candi
dates at tills day and time. I was only
seeking for the office and its ifwards for
•myself; but now I am speakhij of some
thing that we ate all interested!n. And,
now, my county friends, let u:t appeal to
you intelligent men, mid be men in
whom lie all the power to rimoye tills
great fcvil, shall-we let it-geion as it is
:■¥ growing, continually \rse and
worse? Or, shall we, by om united ef
fect iii protection to ourselrjs, to our
liberties and freedom, and ewecially in
protection to the young and rHng gener
ations, wipe out of old Barrt&w county
flliTgreat evil? Let ns not loik to any
law for this purpose, but Jet tls be a law
unto ourselves in this nutter, and no
longer bring shame and reproach upon
our selves and upon our ckil Veil as we
have done in the past. 1d ok ope to live
to see the day when it will be taken as
in insult by any voter in Bopoiv county,
ii le or colored, for any yi iii seeking
office to offer him whi-kv|o encourage
their vole.
This liberty and ficcdom that we now
enjoy is too precious ami .saw ed, and li.is
for us Vo r/*'‘ , > : ''V‘‘^-;ft'Ydi l iv* |njlj J tihli>ttiJi'h,.vd i
N r o doubt some will say >' I ' , d just the
simtiie fact of whisky being used in elee
tloiis to secure votes has no/endency to
ward ilestro3 r ii?g our liberties. To such
persons 1 would say to stop and think for
®ne minute. How many voters, both
white and colored, that are now being
vrained by pur leading andjmostenfluent-
to trafic their votfs. for a little
.nean, whisky and that i violation of
aw ? When we see a great portion of our
voting pupolation trained up in a way
hat they consider their Vote nothing
more than a matter of baiter and trade,
draw can we expect anj liiingelse but
Overthrow and utter dislruction To our
great government.
TTliis is a great evil andpne that is very,
dangerous and somebody is responsible,
and in my honest judgnjent that some
bixH' is every intelllgeiitvoter, white and
colored, in Bartow county, and not only
in this county but whertwer it is used for
that purpose, all over this government.
But we are now only shaking alone for
our ceunty. us befcin at home and
prove to the world, not only by words,
but by acts, that we consider this great
and high privilege of too great value to
be trilled with; and letevery man of in
telligence in our county begin now to
teach the weaker minfled to love and
cherish that liberty and freedom as they
ought and as we are all interested in then
doing, instead of tallng advantage of
their weakness as ha< been the ‘Nistoni iti
x•- - f
the past to baffle and iifluence them by
whisky and all other kinds of bribery to
get their votes.
Let me ouae juore, (efore l elo?e, ap
peal to every father, pvery motlier, to
tlie old, to to all candklftfls,
whoever they may and to every voter
in Bartow county, t let us make one
grand, united eftort, Ihoulder to shoulder,
as it will require us al to make a com
plete success* and lit this old man whis
ky out of opr elections, and throw him
overboard, fox' he i that nasty old chap
yMat is always making so much fuss and
w-eatingAO many dijicidtfSs.
We gfve ynt a plan we have
adopted in -Shla-part oi the,county to get
rid of this evil wliidi we hope will prove
1 successful. We bop; that all of our can
didates \vho expect the siippo'ft of our
Neighbors, will olay this kind request
they have made; hit in case they should
not respect this request, we feel assured
that a majority of these voters will re
member it at the polls when they go to
east their votes, Our aim was to see
every voter in Wof Pen and Stamp creek
districts, but havenot been able to do so
on account ot oui press of work.
.* Very respect filly,
W. F. Corbin,
To all whom it mny concern
Whereas, ThijuseW whiskey in our
flections has became a common practice
throughout our epunty, and has been the
cause of many troubles, dilHoulties and of
rden bloodshed;
And WhereaT The use of the same
in any election ii the state is a strict vio*
of its dads and ai>o demoraHffiiig
Of Its citizens uiui we believe in itsedbcis
destructive to our liliertieg, freedom and
to good government:
Be, therefore, the undersigned voters
of Wolf Pen and Stamp Creek districts,
of Bartow county, respectfully request
that no whiskey be brought or conveyed
to our voting precincts on any future elec
tion days by any candidate or his friends
in any election whatever.
In making this request, we feel that
we are asking something that every citi
zen ot ibis comity is directly interested
in. He, therefore, hope all candidates
\vHI ebeeriully comply with our request.

The dead body of a man was picked up
in the Chattahoochee river, at Franklin,
a few days ago, which had evidently
been in the water tor several days, as
the feet, hands and head had been torn
oil. It was impossible to tell whether it
was tpe .body of a white man or negro.
It is supposed, that he was the victim of
some foul play.
Mr. Samuel Treventine, one of the
oldest and mast esteemed citizens of Har
ris county, died at his residence near
Waverly Hall, on Monday night, 20th.
He was eighty years of age, and during
Ids long life was honored with the re
spect and esteem of his fellow-citizens,
as a good man and Christian gentleman.
The question whether a street railroud
will pay in the city of Columbus is being
discussed, and the probability is that in
a short time these vehicles of transporta
tion will be in use in that city. With a
population of 20,000 living within a mile
of the court house, there is no reason
why a street railway system would not
pay not only the investors but the public

A UIMSTER’S ESI'APK.
From th<* Aftylura to tlie Hnunm of Ut*
Heme—How *t uan lton>.
A prominent miniiHter residing at the
east has just made the following state
ment, which D reprinted entire for the
benefit of those who may have had a
similar experience:
To the Editor of the Herald: I have
always shrunk from appearing promin
ently before the public, but a sense of rh *
duty I owe humanity and the world
prompts me to ask the opportunity for
making 1 a brief statement in your paper.
Whether it he true with others I can
not say, but during my entire life I have
frequently been conscious that something
was s!o\vly and silently working to un
dermine my health and life. Vint it
uas I could not tel 1, but that some ene
my ot my being was devouring me within
l was certain. At times I would seem
comparitively well and then I would be
attacked with the most distressing symp
toms. 1 would feel peculiar pains in
various parts of my body, my head would
seem heavy; my respiration labored; my
appetite pains would be ravenous onedav
and I would loathe food the day follow
ing. Then again I would lose ail inter-
est iu lite; would feel weary without ex
ertion; would become sleepy at mid-day
ami rest less at night. Occasionally my
breathing would be labored ami my
heart almost motionless, while at other
times it would palpitate violently. I
thought these troubles were the result ot
malaria, and i treated them accordingly,
but I got no better. Shortly afterwards
my stomach became deranged, my food
failed to digest, and the fluids I passed
were of a peculiar odor and color. And
yet I did not realize that these things
meant anything serious. Finally 1 con
sulted a number of eminent physicians,
each one of whom took a different view
as to the cause of my troubles. One said
I was suffering from brain disease; an
other spinal difficulty; others heart affec
tion, kidney disease, etc. My symptoms
were terrible, and in the hope of relief I
was cauterized, cupped, blistered and
subjected to almost every known form of
treatment. During one of these attacks,
while at Ked Bank, N. J., a physician
was called, and left a prescription. Af
ter he had gone, l requested a friend to
go and ask him what he thought of my
trouble. The reply was*: “Oh, he will
be all right in a few days; it is only an
attack of delirium tremensi” He was at
once informed that this was impossible,
as I had never used any kind of intoxi
cating drinks; whereupon he returned,
made inquiries, and change 1 his "pre
scription. But all the care of thy friends
and physicians availed nothing. * I grew
ble to tiltfih. ui f - l
ed me, nor could 1 find any one who did.
During the summer and fall of last
j’ear my pulse ranged from 120 to 100 per
minute; 1 had no relish for food, and
was indeed a most pitiable object. I con
tinued in this state until last December,
when I became unconscious and lost my
reason, though 1 had two physicians in
whom myself and friends placed implicit
confidence. In this condition I was'tak
en to Brattleboro, Vt., for the purpose of
being placed in the insane asylum. I re
mained there until last March, being at
tended all the while by my faithful wife
who never left me and believed that some
disease and not insanity was the cause of
all my trouble. 1 regained consciousness
in March last and insisted upon being
taken home. The physicians advised
that 1 remain, but I insisted upon leaving,
and we began the journey, traveling
slowly, L was met at the dock by a friend
whom l 'recognized and then I became
again unconscious and rera lined so for
over a week. When I once more recog
nized my fiends and kr;e v my surrotind
ngs I de.ermine 1 to trv, as a last resort,
*a treatment of which I had heard much
but knew nothing. Neither myself nor
friends had much faith that it or any
thing could help me, but we resolved to
try. We accordingly dismissed the phy
sician-, gave up all other remedies, and I
rejoice to say that with the blessing of
Him who guided us, I am to-day a well
man; have not been so vigorous for ma
ny years, and I owe it all to the wonder
ful power of Warner’s Safe Kidney and
Liver Cure, the remedy which I used.
You can well imagine how grateful l
must feel under the circumstances and,
like anew convert, I earnestly desire
that all who are suffering should know
and avail themselves of this means of re
covery. Had it not been for the remedy
above named I should doubless now be
within the walls of on asylum or
in my grave. The great trouble with
my case was that no one seemed to know
what I was afflicted with and I am posi
tive that thousands of people in America
to-day are in the same or a similar con
dition and do not know its cause. Kid
ney troubles are the most deceptive of
ail diseases. They have no symptoms of
their own, but often show the sya p om
of nearly every known complaint. I
know that people? are dying every day
from supposed consumption, apoplexy,
heart disease, spinal complaint and many
other diseases, when, could the real cause
be known, it would be found
t) originate in the kidneys. In their ad-
vanced stages they are the most terrible
erf all known maladies, as my own experi
ence can fully verify. That I had
Bright’s disease of the kidneys there can
be no doubt. That the symptoms were
those of many other diseases is equally
certain, and that I was doomed to a terri
ble death had I not been saved as I was,
lam positive.
. I view therefore of these facts and with*
a hope that all who read this may take
timely warning, I make this opon st*e
ment freely and for the good of my fel
low men. Sincerely,
(Rev.) E. D. Hofklxs.

INTENSIVE FARMING.
Th- Slice**** Attained ly a Campbait
Comity Farmer on t'oer 1 and.
Ei-om the Campbell County, tia., New* Letter.]
Please allow a few observations on
farming, upon the success of which de
pends the great future of this countr}’—-
its moj-al, social and political welfare.
Mr. Furman’s system of intensive
farming has created quite a sensation
among the progressive farmers of Geor
gia : and, perhaps, Campbell county is
not enthusiactic iu her appreciation
of this system of farming th in her sister
counties.
The idea of a worn-out Georgia farm
being brought from the production of
less than one i ghth of a bale to from
one to three bnies of cotton per acre, iu
five years’ linm and land itself enhances
in value two thousand per cent., 1, in
deed, remarkable. And yet this is
doubtless true. It not. only coin ports
with reason and common sense, but is
fully corroborated by various di-tii -
guished witnesses, and what Mr. Fur
man has done an be done by any intel
ligent perservmg farmer in Camplell
countv,
But the object of this sketch is not so
much to extol Mr. Furman’s farming as
to call attention to another industry,
new in the annals of Campbell county
farming. ! allude to the civilization of
sugar cane. 'The pioneer of this new en
terprise is Mr. James R. Philips, who
lives near CarnpbelUon, and is well
known in this community as one of the
foremost farmers. Mr. Philips procured
400 stalks of this cane last spiing, at a
cost of four cents a stalk, and planted
It in rows six feet apart, on about one
filth of an acre of dry bottom land. The
land was well prepared and well cultiva
ted, though the stand was not good, and
the continuous wet weather in the spring
made Mr. Phillips fear a total failure.
Finally the young plant took a start to
grow, and the fertile soil hastened on its
maturity, and to-day it stands, iu it's
rich luxuraucc a living testimony of the
success of the enterprise. To say tl at it
is as big a thi g (on a smaller scaU-) as
Furman’s cotton farming, would hardly
do justice. Let us compare the re ilts:
Mr. Furman expects 80 to 90 bales from
05 acres, or about 1> 3 bales per acre,
worth at 10 cents per pound, about SG7.-
00. Take from that, $14.25 per acre for
compost, SIO.OO for picking, $4.00 for
giimiiig and marketing—in all, $28.25.
The remainder is $58.75 per acre, net
profit, we will say, not counting the cost
of farming the laud. Now, Mr. Philips
on one-fifth of an acre, with a defective
stand and only one year’s experience in
the culture of the cane, says he will iumW
*"P\° f ban one hundred i/& 1
on land that • dVii , a pro .
duce cane at all. Mr. Pumps* reasons
substantially, as follows: “A few years
ago it was a rare thing to see a stalk of
cotton in north Georgia, and even our
section was not considered a cotton
country, Now, by the aid of guano and
other fertilizers, it matured finely, even
on the foot of the Alleghanies. Before
the war, we thought if cotton was not
planted before the first of May, it was
useless to plant at all; now we see men
plant in June and make good cotton.”
This kind of reasoning led Mr. Phillips
to the conclusion that our seasons arc
not too short to raise sugar-cane success
fully, and the practical results which he
has attained will convince all who wit
ness them, of the correctness and wis
dom of his decision. Hurrah tor Camp
bell county !

A present designed for the Prince of
Wales has unused a sad accident. A
bomb-shell from Egypt was to lie mount
ed for the prince. It exploded and a
workman lies with an amputated limb.
The precaution of extracting the limb did
not occur to the giver of this relic of the
war, Lord Charles Beresford. The En
glish people, except the workman possi-
I bly, are rejoicing in the escape ot their
future ruler.

Radical organs that are prating al>out
the failure of the democrats to benefit the
people when they had control of con
gress, forget to allude to the vast reduc
tion they made in expenditures. Nei
ther do they mention the promptness
with which heads of departments created
defiances. It hurts sometimes to tell the
truth.
Busts in marble of Lord Beae msfield
and Mr. Gladstone were placed in the
vestibule of the London Guildhall a few
weeks ago, the bust of Ileaconsfield be
ing the work of Mr. Belt, and that of Mr.
Gladstone the work of Mr. Woollier.
Niches were expressly made for them in
positions where they could face the busts
of Palmerston and Canning.
The government of Montenegro have
