THE FUTURE OF MEXICO.
The future of Mexico seems destined to
become a question of international solution.
The barbarous murder of Maximilian lias
roused the resentment of the civilized world
against that mongrel concern called, a Re
public, of which the Indian Juarez is the
usurping President and tiie long-eared ex
mule driver Escobedo the Philip Sheri-
iv,yn. From the universal indignation and
mourning caused by the Emperor’s execu
tion, all over Europe, we believe that ids
blood will not sink into the ground, but cry
aloud to heaven and its earthly avengers
for swift and terrible retribution. It is flip
pantly promised by certain Marats of the
press that Maximilian’s fate will prove the
death knell of attempted imperial estab
lishments in regions of North America
beyond the Itio Grande. But, just as the
cruel incarceration and brutal indignities
practiced upon Jefferson Davis faiifcd to
make “ treason” odious and “rebellion”
hateful, so the tragic fall of the Emperor
has changed the sentiments of even the Old
World Liberals and given to the monarch
ists a pretext and a martyr.
The best evidence of the truth of this
surmise can be found in the recent action of
the French Assembly, which once bitterly
opposed Napoleon’s Mexican expedition,
and never ceased its antagonism until the last
French soldier sailed from Vera Cruz. A
reaction lias taken place in that Legislative
body and, for the nonce, consigned the
Theirs party to oblivion. A reference to
further invasion of Mexico was received
with general acclamation, and when the
moment for action shall have come, the
French Emperor will not be alone in armed
interference.
Should there be a combined attack upon
the Mexican sliam Republic by European
powers, the United States will probably
assist their fellow-republicans, and a gigan
tic war come to pass, in the course of which
many historical surprises are destined to be
produced. In such an event, and it may be
nearer than one would suppose, what will
become of Southern reconstruction and the
aiational debt ?
If the temper of Europe tends' strongly
toward- the invasion and dismemberment of
Mexico, it is visible to the careful observer
th#t the tendency of the North is being
shaped in the same direction. Leading
journals have changed their tune regarding
J.uarkz’s Republic and are fomentingjflMs
eords between the United States and tneir
sister confederation. Should the United
States determine to occupy and possess the
Mexican territory, the' powers of Europe
will be delighted to have the job taken oil'
their hands. A sufficient opportunity will
indubitably'be given, and, as Mr. Seward
hits a craze on the subject of acquiring new
have odefiglitful place of refuge.
The climate of Mexico is suited to their
torrid natures, and the fruitfulness of nature
agreeable to their indolent propensities.
Formidable bodies of Southern negroes
could achieve wonders for themselves in
that delicious land. They would And a
convenient intermingling of races already
moulded for their destinies, and by judicious
alliances, should the United States abandon
the country, they could rule it with quite
as many prospects of fortune as that of
Juarez and other adventurers, and, we be
lieve, with a leniency that would put him
and Jiis fellow-cut-throats to ignominious
shame.
The signs of the times, then, plainly indi
cate that either from Europe or' from the
United States the doom of Mexico will ere
long come. Should Europe precipitate mat
ters, the United States may, by force of
polity, drift into complications with foreign
potentates. Should Europe bide Its time,
the United States will send a military mon
arch to what is popularly called the Halls
of the Montezumas, but what may hereaf
ter be styled with equal sentimentality the
Halls of the American Ebosliins.
RETRACTING THE REOORD.
When the Veto Message of President
Johnson on the Military Bill had been read
to the members of the Senate and House of
Representatives, tiie Radical leaders indig
nantly denied the imputation expressed
therein that absolute power was conferred
upon the Five Monarchs. And yet, it is
speciously proclaimed that these satraps
interpreted the bill according to the Veto
Message and not according to the declared
voice of the masters who made them! Was
there ever such brazen imposture?
We furnish proof. One objectionable
argument of the Attorney General reads
thus:
It is a power to preserve, not to abrogate;
to sustain the existing frame of social order
and civil rule, and not a power to introduce
military rule in its place. In efi'ect, it is a
police power, and the protection here in
tended is the protection of persons and pro
perty against, violence, unlawful force, and
criminal infraction.
Again:
Its proper function is to preserve the
peace, to act promptly when the peace is
broken, and restore order.
The Radical press declare that this doc
trine “ tears the heart out of the Military
Bill,” and that Mr. Stanbery lias “ sailed
a seventy-four gun ship through and through
it.” A few months ago, they endorsed a
similar interpretation given by the caucus
commanders. Mr. Shellabauoku, one of
the sponsors of the Bill, said :
It is because it is only the initiative;
because it, is only the employment of tiie
armies of tiie United States as a mere police
force to preserve order until we can estab
lish civil government based upon the loyal
suffrages of the people there, that I can sup
port this measure at all.
Mr. Henry Wilson said ;
Tills bill is proposed to enforce good or
der in these so-called States, until loyal and
republican States governments . can be
legally established.
Senator Morrill, liis name is Lot, and
he deserves to be turned into a masculine
pillar of salt if he look back, said:
Now, Mr. President, this is the mildest
mannered bill in the world. It is thejduty of
Congress to define by law what the military
authorities in that region of country shall
be bound to do, and that is, by this propo
sition to keep order, preserve order in these
insurrectionary States, protect the persons
and the property of the people, and that is
*ll. ■ 1
Another source of disquiet is found in
Mr. Stanbkky’s libera! interpretation as
'to the franchise of “ reliels.” The House
having made what it conceived to lie a suf
llcient outlawry of Soutiiern men to secure
“ decisive and trustworthy majorities,” the
amended bill was returned to the Senate.
Senator Hendricks, of Indiana, said:
I believe I have heard no Senator, except,
perhaps, the Senator from Massachusetts,
express a desire for such a provision. The
desire of the Senate has been that the right
to vote should be free to all.
Senator Sherman, who is trooping back
from Europe in hot haste and virtuous
<; holer, responded:
1 wish to say to my friend from Indiana
that two-thirds of the party to which I
belong, in the House of Representatives,were
of the same opinion, that no such restriction
should be put on ; but these amendments
were forced on this'bill by the Democratic
party. ~
To show that the disfranchising clauses
were forced upon the gentle souls of Radi
calism, the same irate tourist averred :
This iKwiy, by tho unanimous vote of the
Union members, sent to the House a propo
sition, which contained no prohibition of
any man exercising the elective franchise,
it was the deliberately considered proposi
tion of the Union party.
As these'amendments were not deemed so
important, although they, it is true, dis
franchise some of the Southern people from
votNtg, as they could not get the bill in any
other way in consequence of tiie action of
the Democratic party, the bulk of the Union
party concluded that they had liettcr take
the bill with these amendments, and I shall
vote in tiie same way here.
At another stage of tiie proceedings Sena
tor Wilson, who is now offering stringent
resolutions for further oppression and out
lawry, made this magnificent burst:
Sir, I have very little .faith in excluding
men from the polls. I have fought the bat
tle of enfranchisement witli all my heart. 1
believe in manhood suffrage for man, with
out distinction of color or race, or proper
ty, or education. I believe that the poorer
a man is the mow: lie needs the ballot to
protect himself and maintain liis manhood
in this democratic Republic. lam a demo
cratic. Democrat on suffrage and the rights
of man, I have fought the battle of cn
■ franehisement; I 0411 never light the battle
1 of disfranchisement. It is witlj tlje deepest
regret that I consent as a necessity for a
great purpose to disfranchise any human
1 being even for a moment. I vote for this
great measure as a whole heartily, but I
should vote for it more joyously if no human
being on earth was disfranchised by it.
These damaging quotations convict the
. leading memliers of Congress of hypocrisy
, and tergiversation. Out of their own
I mouths are they condemned, and, if any of
(lie bills now pending should pass muster
aml become law, Joseph E.
will have to nose out fresh subterfuges to
defend a Congress which eats its own words
, and will be proven as treacherous as it is
, revolutionary. “ Amnesty ,” "finality," "fra
| tornity," "harmony!" Where arc your honest
! legislators, and where their hollow pro
’ miscs ? Alas ! poor JoeU

, THE OTHER SIDE.
‘ Several Radical papers in the South have
copied an extract froijj the Georgia corres
-1 poudence of the New York Timgfc Ml v/hich
1 Mr. B. H. Hill’s dissertations upon the
* Constitution are comp&red to the. folly of
“ riding stick hoYses in the circus ring when
the circiis is gone.” They were very care
: ful to omit the publication of preceding re
! marks in which with vivid and grisly sa
tire tiie modus operand! of driving negroes
• to the political shambles was portrayed.
! No more melancholy and ludicrous carica
' tuye upon the freedom of the freedmen was
: ever pictured by a master of language. As
an example of the coercion and intimida
' tion practiced, we can authoritatively men
tion that at-a negro church in South Garo
-1 ihift, on Sunday last, an order was read to
the assembled male blacks to meet at
Storm Branch Church, on Saturday next,
' under peril of arrest. We talked with a
number of blacks on the subject, not 011 c of
' whom seemed to comprehend the precise
1 nature of the mandate or its implied threat,
1 but all were vastly curious and vastly
frightened. We publish, in another col
-4 umn, Quondam’s interesting account of
1 one of these black and tan meetings. If
the Radical papers of the South are pleased
f with the recital, they have sunk several de
grees lower than any one lias hitherto sup
-1 posed. Mr. Hii.t. may use a stick, but it is
’ a powerful weapon and has driven the
Georgia traitors to tlieir holes. lie has
completely riddled the Reconstruction
shield, and if Joseph E. Brown & Co. dare
confront him 011 the hustings, they will
wish, before many days have elapsed, that
the circus had remained to save their repu
tations. As it is, they must perforce seek
amusement and balm from the menagerie
now performing at Washington, which,
having exhibited them as sliam lions, strips
the hide from their ignoble carcases and
sends them howling for “ finalities,” “ am
nesties,” “ fraternities ” and “ harmonies ”
which never had any existence outside
their own distorted fancies.
THE RADICALS AND THE NEGRO.
At a recent Radical Convention in Penn
sylvania a nomination for the Supreme
Judgeship was made and a platform estab
lished. A noticeable feature of this plat
form was total exclusion of negroes from
office. The New York Tribune " regrets
that the resolution for impartial suffrage
was smothered in committee.” If the blacks
are not totally blind, this determination of
their pretended friends in Pennsylvania to
keep them at a convenient distance, ought
to open their eyes to tlic hypocrisy of men
who are afraid to practice in their own
homes what they impiously teach and ruth
lessly thrust upon the homes of others. Let
the negro make a practical test of Radical
friendship by voting for his own color, and
no more malignant persecutors of his race
will be found 011 tlic earth’s surface. Not
many days ago, a citizen of Augusta rumi
nated concerning tlic worth of city bonds
when negroes felt tlieir political oats and
grasped tiie purple of dominion. One of
the military appointees is represented to
have declared that “no negro would ever
hold office while Gen. Pour commanded in
Georgia.” Here’s a pill for you, deluded
black men, and here’s a draught Qf reflec
tion u|>oii tiie quality of that sloppy friend
ship which, like the rinsings of an old tea pot,
drips through a Radical strainer. The an
ecdote related above is a good sample of the
aforesaid sloppy friendship. The negro
may heed qr not, as he desires. If Ephraim
is joined to his idols, let him alone.
General Schofield, in his reply to the in
quiry from Winchester, relative to the Al
exandria Constitution disfranchisement,
cuts the Gordian knot at a stroke. He says
the Virginia State government l>eing “ ille
gal,” he does not perceive liow it could
ever have disfranchised anybody. This is
a blow between the eyes to the perjury
prosecutions; but it goes much beyond in
its consequences. What right has an “ ille
gal government ” to levy taxes, to enforce
decrees, to imprison and to hang ? Govern
or Pierpont modifies these last functions
very much by liis pardoning operations;
but what right has an illegal government
to do witli it? —Richmond Enquirer.
Brownlow has disfranchised, by proclaim
tion, Giles county, making the thirteenth coun
ty disfranchised since the 18th of April.
DELUDING THE DARKIES.
The Savannah Republican, an out and
out Radical jiaper, thus alludes to the
Atlanta tea party:
“ The Committee on Resolutions reported
a Platform for tiie new Party, full of loyu,’.
rhetoric and glittering generalities. It v
evidently the intention of the “ white spirits”
to make them so general as to avoid «.;nti
cism. The blacks objected to this, ajVd Jn
an excited discussion claimed Vnat the
rights belonging to them, socially and poli
tically, should lie specifically described, and
declarations made of the party's intention
to vindicate them. They were defeated by
tlieir own weaixms. It was suggested that
no reference to ‘ color’ be introduced into
the platform, and the more enthusiastic of
tiie blacks, wheedled by flattery iuto tiie
belief that they were not at all ‘ colored ’
received the counsel with applause.”*
Blind and deluded freedmen, you are tiie
political slaves of ambitious white men who
desire to step to power upon your backs.
Here is a specific case of humbug for your
interior thoughts. Clap-trap words and
foolish flattery hold you in thrall. We are
sorely afraid that even “ Big Ben,” Quon
dam’s “ rigid Conservative” succumbed to
the persuasive proof that he was not a color
ed man at all; that there were no colored
men extant, and, though lie went to Atlanta
to meet a “ passel of other niggers,” he and
they suffered transmogrification at the white
wash bucket of the magician Blodgett— of
Fairy Land.
To tho Freedmen of Georgia.
no. 1.
Freedmen of Georgia: Wlieu a gardener
finds that the Insects are troubling his
crops, and that unless he destroys them he
will lose what he has been working for, he
lights a Dig fire about dark and by next
morning all the bugs, beetles, (fee,, are in it,
attracted by the bright light made to de
stroy them; or else iie gets some large
' mouthed bottles, half fills them with molass
es and water, and in a short time they are
filled with drowned insects.
This, I fear, is what is prepared for you,
under tiie name of Freedom, and Equality ;
and as I do not wish to see you destroyed,
but living in the full pursuit of happiness,
; I will venture to tell you some truths,
which you will not hear from those who
1 only pretend to be your friends, for their
own purposes.
If mankind lias any knowledge ol the
truth, it is found in what Christians con
sider tiie word of God, i. e. tiie Bible. This
tells us that God rules in the. affairs of the
world, and that Ills management of it is
directed to preparing it for the final occu
' pasion of His Son, as Lord and King of a
chosen people, from among the myriads
1 who have lived on tlje Earth. It also lays
down laws for our conduct, and government,
; and precepts for our regulation in our in
’ tercourse with one another; but it no where
promises anything but trial and tribulation
in this world. Nor does it adypeate "equali
ty," except before God, as onr Father and
, Judge, but ordains social subordination ami
obedience to governors and masters. It even
{ sets aside a whole race as “ servants of
} servants," and tells us that at the last day
[• there shall be bondsmen and freemen, and
, that the poor we shall always have with us.
Thb declaration that all men are “ free and
equal ” is a falsehood in everyway, and was
the product of an infidelity that arose from
, the corruption of religion, and brought on
the French Revolution and the horrors of
the great wars which followed.
About 1800 years before, when Christ
I came into the world, all the people in it
were the slaves of Kings and Emperors, as
you may judge from the fact that when*
Herod, the King, wished to destroy the in
, infant Jesus he sent and slew all t.he little
children under t\yo years old, in a large
district of country, and nobody dared resist
L him. But the doctrine taught by Christ
C and tlic Apostles, while they inculcated love
, and good will among men, and equality tic
fore God, only taught obedience and sub
, ordination, from the young to the old, and
from the subject to the rulers, and from the
C servant to the master.
[• When the church had become powerful,
I and mastered the kings of the earth, it be
came so situated that a “ Reformation ” was
deemed necessary and was to a limited de
, gree carried out, and certain ideas leading
to great moral, social and political im
provement prevailed; but slavery still ex
isted, and lias never been abolished, except
, where it was found that free labor was
cheaper than slave hdior. In England and in
New England this soon became apparent,
and slavery was abolished in name, though
in the former country it still exists in fact,
inasmuch as vast numbers can scarcely
live by the proceecds of a very hard day’s
work. But it suited the views of both these
people to see the negro labor of the South
destroyed, and to do this the first step was
, to destroy the Constitution of the United
, States, that protected the Planter, who pro
tected the negro, living and working with
him. The Planter resisted, and a war en
sued, but it was only when President Lin
coln found that the South could not be
conquered, and that if lie did not abolish
! slavery, England would help us, on condi
tion that we would do so, gradually—that
it was done. But even after the war, know
-1 ing that the act was unconstitutional, they
1 required the States to do so. They did so,
! and the negro is now legally free, and his in
’ terest is now that of a Southern man. Let
him beware, lest in pursuit of a shadow he
1 be not cheated out of the substance—and
' burnt in the fire, or drowned in the bottle,
like the insects referred to above.

Scalping. — We wonder if any “ thrill of
horror” has run through the Northern
heart upon the reading of what we here
copy from the New York Tribune 1 The
United States are Rapidly earning immor
tality—of a certain sort. They armed
these Indians before 1861. The Caiawas
were armed with revolvers and rifles made
by Lamon, Mr. Buchanan’s nephew, at
Lancaster, the kennel of that inhuman
wolf, Thad. Stevens. Tiie scalps to be
taken in Colorado ought to be exhibited in
the capital of the nation, by the side of the
pickled heart of Wirz:

find others who would bike more at the same

there is great need of their services. We

cult question.* No sugar, bacon or coffee

i Politics.
Quondam - j, as wr jtten the following
letter IroiU Greeue county. It will appear
that Ilia Successful candidate was a “ rigid
CoKser* ,-ative,” but the extent and value of
‘aoctrine can be easily appreciated by
hvy chiming in with that “ passcl of other
niggers” who met at Atlanta on the
Fourt h of Juiy. If “ Big Ben” is a staunch
opponent of Radicalism he should have
protested in due form against the elo
quent and disinterested speech of that
great and good man, Foster Blodgett :
The heavy rains and negro politics have
done no little damage to the crops in this
section of tlje State. The former have
made the grass grow with ruinous rapidit \
and vigor, and the latter have materially
interfered with that steady, continuous pro
gress ol' the plow and hoc, which alone ean
make the green slayer think lie’s slain.—
1 lanters and their managers fume and fret
as they see luxuriant end) grass smother
mg the cotton.and stunting the corn, while
all the hands have gone off to listen to
some itinerant Radical, to vote ibr a repre
sentative in a negro procession in Atlanta'
on the Fourth of J uly, or to go to town
and “hear what’s going on.” Within the
past week, in a large agricultural County
north ol this, the hands lost two days for
these purposes, leaving ilieir work without
saying a word to the employers, and when
they returned were unable to say what they
went for, what they did, or what they
heard. As the whole country, is now over
run with these Radical stump speakers, the
evil is likely to be very serious, as this-is
the most critical time in the year for
’the crops, when steady, hard work
is essential to success. I have heard many
of the harangues of these individuals.—
“Vote for the Radicals, who set yoi live,
and if you do Congress will coniiscate the
property of the rebels and divide it amoim
you," constitutes the burden of all the
speeches which I have hoard .addressed to
the negroes. The letters of fluid. Uteveils
and Gen. Butler are relied on as conclusive
proof that this promise will be fulfilled, am I
it is asserted that those gentlemen whose
omnipotence is demonstrated, are resol vjr I
to drive out all the white rebels and m:A
this the colored mail’s country. I UeaiTi a
mulatto from Massachusetts, who hail ilJeen
sent out to preach the Radical gospel, pro
mise liis negro audience all that is contain
ed in the above sketch, adding that Con
gress had scut him to tell his brethren the
truth.” lie advised also that no cohtract,
to work, no objection of the employer, no
regard for the crop, should lie allowed to
prevent the colored men from coming to
town as often as they wished to hear
speeches, attend political meetings, am
“ fix to look after their own ‘ intrust,,-;
He then told them that the whit<
men of the South were all to
getlier to deceive and injure -them, to rob
them of their rights, and make them slaves
again, and that their only chance of escape
and future prosperity was to vote for “them
as sot you free.” There were several white
men present who heard this speech, and to
whom, on the principle that listeners never
hear any good of themselves, several allu
sions were made which were very far from
conciliatory or complimentary. A couple
of days ago I witnessed a negro election of
a delegate to represent a county in the
“show at Atlanta,” on the Fourth of July.
From every corner of the county freedmen
poured in. Had the issue been one of* life
and death the interest could not have been
greater or the anxiety more intense. 1
asked several what they were going k> do,
but nobody seemed to have any idea of the
purpose oi the gathering. “We got word
to come on and vote, and so we ’lowed to
. come,” was all the information I could
gather at the outset of the proceedings.—
One or two white men, one a greasv, un
washed and half drunk individual, who is
what is called a “ yarb” or “ roqt doctor,”
and another an ex-ftssistaut to an ex-negro
trader were the managers, promoters and
big men of the occasion. They wrote
tickets, and fixed things in the most.oblig
ing manner without the least reference to
the free anil enlightened citizens. There
were “ six Richmonds in the Held,” dnjt it
soon became apparent that “ old man Jack
Bell” was the favorite, and straightway I •
went in search of the popular candidate,;
hoping that by possibility lie might have
1 got an inkling of what he was to do. 1 was
‘ presell leil in due form t-u one of ’•tbe 'liiosl, '
stalwart and ponderous negroes I ever a* w.
I found Bell as affable and comnitmica
-1 live as if I had a vote, but was o
ed in my expectation of learning the pur
, pose of the meeting, as all Bell knew was
that they wanted him to go to Atlanta to
[ meet “ a passel (parcel) o’other niggers”
on the Fourth of July. Bell is an old man,
a blacksmith by trade, of remarkable ener
gy, determination and vigor for his time of
I life. He is much esteemed by the white in
habitants, and he avows himself as a Cou
-1 sorvative of the most rigid school, lie has
continued to enjoy a high reputation ns a
blacksmith, and an honest, industrious niau.
He rancor rather was run, as the antkßadi
cal candidate, llis opponents were all
1 “ conscation Radicals,” but tftfctr combined
vote did not amount tq half that cast for
; “ Big John,” who goes to Atlanta with his
expenses paid by his constituents to the ex
tent of nine dollars and a half, raised by
voluntary subscription. Whether this Con
, sorvative triumph is due to the management
, of the “ root doctor,” the eloquence bf the
negro trader’s assistant, or whether it is the
expression of the enlightened opinion of the
i electors, is a question which is variously
answered.
As a specimen of the working of negro
suffrage-, I cannot say that this election was
encouraging or gratifying. There was not
one of the hundreds who deposited the
tickets written, folded, and placed in their
hands by the root doctor, who had not the
most remote idea as to what he was doing
further than to send Jack Bell to Atlanta.
Why Jack Is going there, or what he is to
do when he arrives, or what he will accom
plish when he returns, nobody understood.
There is a vague idea that lie will learn dur
ing his trip wliat is “going to tic done for
the colored poplc,” and that he will “get the
straight of all the tales” about land. If lie
does his journey will not have lieen in
vain.
Although the farmers arc naturally
alarmed by these frequent interruptions of
labor, and the consequent injury to the
crops, I did not see one who was in the least
harsh or ill-tempered with his truant work
men. I have heard of but one case where
a laborer lost his place, and that was by
the voluntary resignation of the freedinan,
who feared dismissal and thought it best to
dismiss himself. In this case the freedinan
had the additional stimulant to independent
action, which was furnished by a long
clierished desire to abandon his wife, and
form a newer and more congenial matrimo- 1
nial alliance at a few miles’distance. The
negro lias but a very dim conception of con
jugal continence, and “ has no use ” for a law
which only allows him to have one wife. A
remarkable petition was presented the other
day to the agent of the Bureau by a negro
who works on a plantation in Oglethorpe
county. The petitioner has had almost as
many wives as Brigham Young, and has a
great nnmlier of children now living.—
Many of these children are sufficiently
grown to be very useful Held laborers, anil
add considerably to the gains of their
father. To collect his scattered flock, take
them from the deserted wives anil make
them work for the father was the prayer of
the petition, and when lie found that this
could not ix: granted, he expressed the
deliberate judgment that the law which
could not give a man all his children
“ warn’t no account no how.” 1 think that
this interesting citizen, who is not over
forty years old, (jointed out fifteen or six
teen grown sons of from 14 to 18 years of
age, whom he wanted to get under iiis con
trol, as they could “make right smart if dey
were all togeder.” How many of his off
spring who are females, or are not suffici
ently grown to make “right smart,” I did
not learn.
An English civil engineer, named Ormshy,
recently elated that the juxtaposition of water
pipes with gas pipes, under ground, is highly
detrimental to the quality of water, and gave a
remarkable instance to prove this assertion.
lie pays that he has it on the authority of the
engineer of the New ltiver Company that in
applying a light to, some ol the water pi’po K
which he had to inspect, ignition was caused as
if they contained gas instead of water.
An old negro woman accounts for the lack
of discipline among youngsters from the fact
that their mothers wear gaiters. “Ye see when
we wear low shoes an’ the children wauled a

PERIODICAL DROPS!
TUB CHEAT FEMALE REMEDY FOR
IRREGULARITIES.
I have tested these Drops in my own practice, over ten
years, ami do not hesitate to say, that nothing lias yet
been developed by medical research that acts so power
fully, positively, and harmlessly, hr cases of female irre
gularity, as does this medicine. In nil recent cases it
never fails, while thousands who have been long suflerers
are Indebted to it for the boon of health to-day.
Although so powerful aud positive, they are perfectly
harmless, and may he used at all times, except when
specially forbiddeu In the directions.
They have been extensively employed by eminent phy
sicians iu France and England, as well as in my own
practice, over ten years, aud I have yet to hear of the
first instance of failure. I could give you testimonials of
tho efficacy from ladies all over the Northern and West
ern Slates, were they not in their nature private. Over
100,000 bottles have been sold the past year, and I hope
and trust as many sufferers have been bonefitted. lam
well aware that a remedy so potent to remove all obstruc
tions may be used for a had purpose, but trust that where
one bottle is thus used, ten may fall into the hands of
really needy sufferers.
To all who sufferfrom any irregularity, painful, difficult,
excessive, offensive or obstructed Menstruation, I.ucor
rhea, or the train of diseases that follow, I would say,
try a bottle of l)a. Lyon’s Prbnou PgaioDioxL Drops.
Being a fluid preparation, their action is more direct aud
positive than any pills or powders. Explicit directions,
beuring my tao simile, accompany each bottle.
