Mas. M. M. Amiionv. We do not- suppose there has been since the creation of the world a more favorable year, all things considered, than the present has been, so far, in Terrell county. The seasons have been all that could be desired. Wo have had but little sickness, and in every vase where crops have been properly cultivated the yield has surpassed the expectations of the most sanguine. Nor do we suppose there is any place on the face of the earth where a farmrs can reap a greater reward for a small outlay of labor and capital than right here in our own county. Our land is worth three or four dollars per acre, skillful and industrions farmers have harvested crops aggregating in value a thousand dollars or more to the plow. If ours is not a favored county we have never seen one. Those who do their own part here will surely reap a rich reward and if all understood their business as a few do this would soon become one of the richest countries in the world. It is cheerful to hear so many of our sub scribers, as they come in to pay the small sum due the printer, say that they are out of of debt for the first time in years.

The acquisition of vital energy is the 'step ping stone to health. When t e svstem lacks vitality, the va’ions organs flag in their duty, become chronically irregular, and disease ia eventually instituted- To pre veut this unhappy stale of things, the debili tated system should be built up by the urn of that inimitable tonic, Hostetler's Stom ach Sitters which invigorates the digestive organs, and insures the thcrougti conversion of food intfi blood of a ceurishing quality, from whence every muscle, nerve and fiber acquire unwonted supplies of vigor, and the whole sy-tem experiences the beneficial ef fect. Appetite returns, the system is refresh ed by healthful slumber, the nerves grow strong and claim, tlse despondency begot ten of chronic iudigestion and an uncertain state of health disappears, and that sallow appearance of the skin peculiar to habitua invalids, and persons deficient in vital ener gv, is replaced by a more becoming tinge.
