SUNDAY MORNING, MAY 30, 1869
“Where is Drake 8. T. 1800 X?” We
have heard this question asketf many times,
and for all wo knew for a year past lie might
be dead. Recently, In New York, wo caH
.edat his Laboratory in Liberty St., and
there found this gentleman barricaded be
hind a tremendous pile of boxes, distribu
ting funds to a Sunday School Committee.
Our business was to secure an advertise
ment. lie said : “My dear sir, what is the
use of advertising the Plantation Bitters ?
They sell better now than when I adver
tised at such enormous expense, and dot* I
have not made a contract fora year. I
have ail this to give to the poor. To sat
isfy the Press, however, who have always
been my friends, 1 think I will give you a
little something to do again, for I have im
proved the Bitters greatly, and it may be
well to have you let the people know it.”
And so he ran on in a happy, cordial, ap
preciative manner, showing ns the wonders
of his place and the cords of certificates.
Everything is on a magnificent scale, and
is done with neatness and promptness.
While there we saw at least forty orders
come in for these celebrated Bitters. Cases
were being shipped to the four corners of
the world. Drake is not dead, nor his Bit
ters either. —Exchange paper.

House and Farm.
HOMAN STOCK.
There is a great deal in our agricultural
papers, relating to the improvement of far
mer’s stock. They suggest how to add to
the comfort, the beauty or the happine- sos
every creature in the stables, the yards and
the pastures, from the old “ cow with the
crumpled horn,” down to the “ cock that
crows in the morn,” but foiget all about tbe
“ maiden all forlorn,” and the rest of the
human stock, herded somewhere on the
premises in what is called the houke.
Now, a man’s wife and children are of
nearly as much importance as his horses,
cattle, sheep and‘hens, and If you can only
convince him that ’twlß pay,' he will take
'as good care of them. But so long as the
farmers regard their families as so much
poor stock, which is to be worked hard and
treated ill, so long there wiH be poorer
dwellings than barns; toilworn, weary
wives •walking to church, or to a sick neigh
bor’s, and sleek, idle horses dozing in the
barn; uncouth, uneducated children, stay
ing at home to work because father “ can’t
spare them,” “ can’t afford” to hire men and
■women to take their places, while they go
and acquire, the education which God a net"
nature demands.

Pursuing the noblest of avocations, in
constant contact with nature, the grandest
and purest of all teachers, why is it the
farmer so often forgets to hold communion
with her? Acre after acre of smiling
meadow, sunny hill sides and sweet voiced
woodland stetches away before him, all his
own. Yet he is not satisfied. No thoughts
of gratitude and love to God and his fel
low-man, And a place in his heart. He
looks and asks for more. His better nature,
the love he promised his fair yonng bride,
now a pale, .early-bowed .woman, has
changed to love of {and, for which he longs
as eagerly as did Columbus on the stormy
ocean. No sooner is one farm paid for
than he covets an adjoining one, and pro
ceeds to condfct every available thing into
gold for its purchase. . The orchard is rob
bed of its finest fruit, and the cellar ap
peased windfall#; the chickens
and turkeys are all carried to market j. the
morning’s Coffee is all well milked, While
the rictficream is conveyted into butter to
be sold, and he seasons his potato from a
plate of swimming pork ; tells thg.children
they’ll have to “give up school another
year and help save to buy upthatßrosvu
Farm,” adding byway of comfort, “ they’ll
have it all some and%.”
Thank God there are farmers who know
how to live, and thdugh such are usually
of limited means, there is comfort, happi
ness and intelligence in their homes. After
the labors of the day are done, instead of
sitting down in the smoky kitchen to in
hale the lingering fumes of cooking, they
open the simple parlor, vfbo sweet rest
upon the cosy iiome-iike lounges and chairs,
In reading or conversation, grow wiser and
better, love God and each other more, and
can well afford to pltty the grasping owner
of many lands.—Verted.
Destructive Fntß in* Blackshear,
Pearce County. —A correspondent of the
Savannah Ndhts says: Oh Friday night last,
between 12 and 2 o’clock, the residence of
Col. G. M. T. Ware, of this place, was
burnt to the ground. ‘The distance from
the busiuess part of our village was so
great that very few persons could render
any assistance, and t he fire burned so rapid
ly that nothing could be saved. Col. Ware
had been at home from attending the Ma
sonic Lodge but a little-while, his family
were absent on a visit out from town, ana'
what makes it a great misfortune to him,
he lost all he had, his valuable law library,
his furniture and nearly all his clothing,
crockery Ware, etc., which by years of Uv
cessant labor he had been enabled to accu
mulate. His loss is truly great, and to be
deplored. The people here would do all
they conld to help him, but owing to their
straitened circumstances can do but little.
Shall the Confederate Dead be
Honored? —The Washington correspond
ent of the Boston Advertiser writes as fol
lows to that journal:
There is quite a difference of opinion in
the Grand Army of the Republic in this
section regarding the decoration of the
graves of Confederate dead. Post No. 1,
of this city, resolves unanimously that
“ while we hold no malice against the dead
who fell in attempting to haul down our
flag and thereby endangering the nation,
we will not divide our honors by decora
ting Confederate graves, and thereby taint
tlie character of those who sacrificed their
lives that their country might live.” Post
No. 19, of Pennsylvania, issnes a circular
saying that it lias decided “ not to pass hy
the graves of Confederates sleeping in onr
lines, but to divide each year between blue
and grey the first floral offerings of a com
mon country. We have no powerless foes.
Post No. 19 thinks of the Southern dead
only as brave men.”
Bad Crop News. —From all quarters of
this section of the country we hear gloomy
news in regard to corn and cotton. Corn
is short apd spindling, while cotton is
“ few and far between”—«frooping and sick
ly. A friend tells us that iu his neighbor
hood a great many cotton fields present
scarcely anything of the weed but the mere
stems or stalks, without leaves, aqd these
stems are red and puny. Another friend,
just from Eastern Alabama, says such is
the condition of the cotton in that section
that many are plowing np the cotton and
plar ting corn. The truth may as well be
told : otfr farmers ate greatly discouraged
and their faces are becoming as long as the
moral law. The wheat is pretty good.—
The heads are not so long, but are pretty
full of the grain. If nothing takes place
to prevent, a fair crop will be made.

General Philip St. George Cooke, who
succeeds General Thomas in command of
the department of Kentucky is a Virginian
by birth, a graduate of West Point, and
during his long and honorable service prior
to the late war, repeatedly distinguished
himself. J. E. B. Stuart, the distinguished
Confederate cavalryman, married a daugh
ter of General Cooke, and it is said that
during the war he made frequent attempts
to capture his father-in-law, but the old
gentleman was not to be caught in that
way.
A gentleman of Brookville, while on a
visit to Knightstowrr, stepped into a mar
ble shop, where he saw the following in
scription on a tombstone, ordered by an old
farmer in Bush county , and was to be placed
at the grave of his son. The old man said,
“ the thing was writ by the family, and he
wanted it cut on there just that way.”
Here it is:
He died at naslrvilie tennessee
he died of kronic diaree
it trooly paneful must of bin
to die so fur away from home.”
In bringing poor, greasy Alaskans to a
sense of Christian proprieties, the old Kan
sas plan has been adopted of “ shooting the
Gospel ” into them—in this case, however,
with gunboats instead of Sharpe’s rifles;
and the rascally pagans have actually
christened these new and humane Instru
ments of conversion, “ Bostons!” Onr pious
neighhors of the “hub” ought to get wrath
fully round-shouldered over this pointed
little insinuation. — St. Louis Times.
A fellow stole a dog, and, upon being
detected by the owner, promised to return
the animal next day. The individual re
ceived a package at the appointed hour, on
which was written, “This is your dog.”
On opening it, the astonished man found
ten pounds of freshly made sausages.

THE
Six Great Remedies
OF THE AGE.
PURIFY YOUR RLOOD.
HURLEY’S SARSAPARILLA.
o F ALL the remedies that have been diacovor
ed during the present age for the “thousand ill* that
flesh is heir to,” none equal this wonderful prepara
tion. Only 15 years have elapsed since the discover
er (who spent a decade in studying, experimenting
aud perfecting, it,) first introduced bto the public,
and it is already rrab/nized hy the most eminent phy
sician* in all parts of the country to be the most sur
prising and effective remedy for curtain diseases of
which they have knowledge.
All other Compounds or Syrups of this Root have
hitherto failed to command the sanction of the Facul
ty, because, on bet eg tested, they have been founi to
contain noxious ingredients, which neutralize the
good effects of the Harsaparil a, and oftentimes injure
the health of the patient. It l» not so with Hurley’s
preparation. ■
This is the pare and genuine extract of the root, and
Will, on trial, be found to effect a certain and periect
' cure of the following complaints :
Affections of the Bpnec, Habit ual Cost i ve
nea*, Debility. Disease* of the Kid
neys Dlspepsta, V.rysfpells, Ketnale
Irregularities. Fistula, ail skin
Diseases, Liver Complaint,
Indigestion, Pll s, Pul
monary Diseases, Fcro
fnla, or King’s Kvll,
Syphilis, and all
Impurities of
the Biood.
Hurley’s Ague Tonic.
PERFECTLY: RELIABLE.
The only rem»dy for Chills and Fever, or Ague and
Fever, that is or can ho depended upon ii HUR
LEY’S AGUE TONIC. There have been thousands
oored by using it who have tried the usual remedies
without benefit
WORTHY OP AtTEMTIOM.
To Dr. That. A. Hurley:
I hereby certify that during last year I was at) ack
sd with ths Ague whilst in Vieksburg, Miss., and
used several popular medicines with but temporary
relief. On rcacning home the disease returned In a
worse type, if possible, when my medical attendant
ordered Quinine in large doses—frequently as high as
60 grains per day, and which must have cost me near,
ly SIOO. I consulted Dr. Smith, of Louisville, and
found he prescribed quinine and arsenic combined,
which I refined to take, preferring to let the disease
take its course. I was almost bloodiest, extremely
exhausted, and pionounced with enlarged Liver and
8p ecu. About this time thg advertisement of Hur
ley’s Ague Tonic appealed ill a city paper, and I de
termined to give it atrial. I did so, ana have no rea
son to regret it. One pottle restored me completely,
and since that time t have seen nett-ly a hundred
cases in which It acted with equally happy results,
and* would certainly recommend it as preterable to
any other tonic before the public.
JAMES MARTIN, Engineer.
LouisviitLK, Ky., Jane 16,1865.
HURLEY’S
Popular Worm Gandy.
As this is really a specific for Worms, and the best,
and most palatable form to give to children, it is not
surprising that it is fast taking tbe place of all other
preparations for worms—it being perfectly tasteless,
and any child will take it.
NOTICE TO MOTHERS.
DR. SEABROOK’S
Infant Soothing Syrup.
Use in the future only BEABROOK’S, a combina
tion quite np with the advancement of the age.—
Pleasant to take, harmless in itß action, efficient and
reliable in all cases. Invaluable in the following dis
eases :
SUMMER COMPLAINTS, IRREGULARITIES
OF THE BOWELS, RESTIVENESS,
TEETHING, Ac.
Gives health to the child and rest to the mother.

Jas. Ruddle <6 Cos., Louisville, Ky.:
When living in your city I used several bottles of
DR. SBABRoOK’B INFANT SOOTHING SYR
UP, »°d found it to do my child more good, and it
would rest better after using it, than any other reme
dy I ever tried. I can say with conftdencs, it is the
best medicine for children at present known. 1 wisli
you would get the Druggists here to Keep it. If any
one does, please let me know; if not, send me one
do*en by express, and 1 will pay for it at the office
here. Write me when you send It and oblige

digestion, or Dyspepsia, Want

Disordered Stomach.
There are no Bitters that can compare with these in re

JAMES RUDDLE A 00.,
Proprietors, Louisville, Ky.
To Jas. Ruddle <£• Cos., Louisville, Ky.:
Gkntlemkn : This is to certify that I have been
for years a sufferer, and have tried all the Tonics I
have heard of or seen advertised, with little or no re
lief from any of them. I heard your Hurley Bitters
highly spoken of, and tried a bottle, with little faith
in it before I commenced, and to my surprise and
joy, before I finished one bottle, I felt a great deal
better, and firmly believe that on one or two occasions
it was the means of saving and prolonging my life. I
conscientiously recommend them to a l sufferers as
the best Bitters known, and advise them always to ask
for Dr. T. A. Hurley’s, and have no other. You can
use this as you think proper, if it will benefit others.
Yours, truly, &c.,
JOHN W. DIXON.

TL HE ENTIRE CAPITAL OF THIS COMPANY has been furbished by citizens of Vir
ginia and Georgia.
It is estimated that over TEN MILLIONS OF DOLLARS are now annually sent North for
LIFE INSURANCE, every dollar of which takes so much from Southern vitality. Henceforth
let ns keep our investments at. home, and we will again assert aud maintain our supremacy This
BRANCH OFFICE offers all inducements tor Life Insurance of a perfect Home Office with
these advantages : The Capita) is furnished, the expenso of commencing operations has’ been
incurred, the success, beyond peradventure, is established, aud the whole Capital and Assets of
the Home Company stand committed to sustain it. '
The entire management of the Piedmont is in the hands of Southern men, and its aim is to
sustain Southern interests. Why, then, should Southern men place their money and the inter
ests of their wives and children in the hands of Northern men, who , you kno-w, do not love you, and
who have proved that they do not desire your prosperity , and WHOSE CHARTERS FORBID TH F.
INVESTMENT OF ONE CENT FOR YOUR BENEFIT ?
THE PIEDMONT is not only a thorough'y Southern Company, but pledges itself to invest
all funds accruing in Georgia, within the State, uuder the direction ot Georgia gentlemcu in
whose integrity you must have entire confidence.
THE PIEDMONT gives per cent, of net profits to her Policy holders ; issues Gold Poli
cies to those who prefer to pay in Gold, or at Gold standard; lias already declared 40 per cent,
dividend on all of its Life Policies, and, in short, offers all advantages that Southern men could
ask. We, therefore, confidently appeal to Southern men to sustain an established and perma
nent institution of their own, and we cannot doubt the results.
THE PIEDMONT claims to be equal in the privileges and benefits granted its patrons, to any
other Company, surpassed by none, and superior to many, and only requests parties wishing to in
sure not to do so until they have examined the merits of this established Southern Company.
