MUNICIPAL.
Yesterday, at noon, the newly elected
Mayor and Board of Councllmen were regu
larly Installed as our city guardians for the
ensuing year. Never before, within our
knowledge, have municipal officers been bo
unanimously chosen, and never before was
eo little of political manoeuvering requisite
In making a choice. They have, therefore,
assumed the high and honorable responsi
bility of administering the affairs of our
city without pledges and, we sincerely
trust, free from any intention of rewarding
Mends and punishing enemies.
During their term of office, many and
very Important measures will command
their attention. Prominent among these
measures, we would more distinctly note
that of the enlargement of the Augusta
Canal at an estimated cost of $400,000.
When this project shall have come up for
consideration, in the interest of the city,
we bespeak for it calm, unbiased and ample
consideration An enterprise of such mag
nitude In money should not be passed upon
hastily. We respectfully suggest that sev
eral months be given to its ; so
that whatever action be finally taken it
shall at least escape the reproach of un
seemly precipitation. The present canal
was estimated to cost about $90,000 ; and !
yet, mors than $400,000 were required to
pay for it. Such an error in estimation
may occur again.
A true and plain statement of the finan
cial condition of the city would be of great
interest, especially to tax payers, and we
hope the present Board will have such au
exhibit given to the public, showing the
amount of cash on hand at the commence
ment of their term; the amount due the city,
less what may be considered worthless; the
exact amount of floating debts (if any)
inherited from their immediate predeces
sors; and an accurate list of outstanding
bonds, their date of issue, time of redemp
tion, and for what purposes they were
issoed. Such a statement Is, we think, due
to the people and to the new Board, in order
that a just conclusion may be eventually
arrived at as to the progress and wisdom
of their administration.
THE ADVENT OF HARD TIMES AT THE
NORTH.
The World publishes some very interest- I
i D g information as to the prospects of trade,
gleaned from Interviews with some of the
more prominent merchants of New York. I
At A ’T. Stewart’s, Western trade was re
ported “very dull,” and this state of things
was accounted for in consequence of the
holding back of the crops by the farmers.
Though- the Southern trade was deemed
batter than that of the West, the same ten
dency to withhold the products of this sec
tion was observable. Cotton; they thought
at Stewart’s, was bound to rise in price,
after a while. It was conceded that a re
turn to specie payments would hurt the
wholesale dealers but might be to the ad
vantage of retailers.
At another large dry goods house, the
same dullness was complained of and sub
atantlally the same reason given therefor.
Centralization of capital had become so
chronic that it was almost Impossible for !
small firms to exist in competition. The
only chance for active young men was to
reach jonior partnerships, but these were
difficult to secure and the proper persons
hard to obtain In consequence of the rage
top extravagance and speculation. Rents
' JuMHrfrbeffi enormous but are tumbling. Bat
,'twUpdoetibn of eveh 35 per Cent.' in rents
Wlll-Tiot suffice tomaterially k|st*r the busi
ness situation. In spite of the Immense
amount of business done, during the two
last years, few of the merchants have
mads any money. Every importer is keep
ing prepared for the possible resumption of
specie payments by running in debt as much
as he can abroad and freeing himself at
home. This uneasiness destroyed the mar
gin for great profits. With scarcely an
exception the largest dry goods houses are
doing a fair business; but nine-tenths of the
smaller houses are Idle.
Rosenfeld & Bro., importers of fancy
foreign goods, took a very bilious view of
affairs. The consumption of goods was
calculated at fully 35 per cent, less than it
was last year. The Western farmers are
holding back, and so are the planters of the
fiouth. Both are dissatisfied with ruling
prices fbr their products, and, in a majori
ty of cases, were able to wait for a rise. So
the farmers will not purchase, and the
merchants are afraid to increase their
stocks. Replying to a direct inquiry as to
tha Southern trade, Mr. Rosenfeld said:
•« Southern trade is good ; and we look
for still better trade in the coarse of a
month—that is as soon as thev realize.—
You tee the Southern plantert of cotton are
note masters of the situation. According to
all the information we get from Europe, there
is nothing like so much cotton raised in Egypt
and India as was anticipated. Bo the plant
ers are holding on with the idea of getting
better prices.”
Od the point of specie resumption, Mr.
R. was very emphatic. He declared that
the very idea of it mads dealers tremble. He,
however, thought an early return to solid
values Impossible, but thought a beginning
Should be made by allowing a portion of
Customs dues to be patd In currency.
The woollen trade was quite as much de
pressed as dry goods. The operation of the
tariff was severely blamed for this trouble.
Foreign wool is almost prohibited and na
tive wool is unfit for felting purposes. So
there is a surfeit of low class goods every
where. The present stringency was at
tributable mainly to the want of a just
an% runt of banking facilities. Speaking of the
effect Westward, a woollen manufacturer
observed:
«Why, they have been putting away
their money in old stockings and teapots—
hoarding it up because of the present arbi
trary system of banking. We have got to
have an elastic system for our banks. That
would help the West considerably. All the
money they have hoarded up would be ac
tively employed In business If they had a
proper system. Under a free banking sys
tem the supply and demand takes care of
Itself.”
Now what is here said of the West, applies
with equal or greater force to the South.
Both West and South groan for something
like their old system of State Banks, and
Justly regard the National Banks as so
many despotisms. When the South and
West have a chance to lock shields on this
question, there will be a rattling of dry
bones among the Eastern money-changers,
who keep their greenbacks playing to and
fro like a juggler’s balls. Possibly the cun
ningly contrived XVth Amendment and
kindred Yankee devices will Badly hamp
er us for some time to come; bat the
bonds will be broken at no very remote
period, and then let Shylock & Cos. pre
pare to make restitution with compound
Interest, and with whatever cheerfnlnes
they can summon from their greedy recep
tacles for such commodities.
Noted Journalists. —The New York
Star describes Mr. Bennett, of the Herald ,
as an early riser and small talker. He
hates company and indulges in Scotch pro
fanity. Greeley is very vain ; dresses
with cleanliness bnt studies negligence of
attire. He sqneaks and swears incessantly.
Dana, of the Sun, keeps a velocipede, wears
a sknll cap, and has weak eyes. Marble,
of the World, affects reticence because he is
sot a ready speaker. His original name is
Moses Malone. Oaxey Hall is the best
dressed editor in Gotham. He has a suit
of clothes for every festival day and receives
FsnUn delegations in full green toggery.
Dead Sea Apes.—Mr. Home, the cele
brated Spiritual Medium, has been “ inter
viewed ” by certain members of the London
Dialectical Society—a society “ opposed to
Christianity and to the existence of devils
and angels." From the report of these com
prehensive reformers we learn that “ the
manifestations are beneficial, if not over
done that Mr. Home has been pulled ont
like a spy-glass and “ overdone ” to the ex
tent of at least eight inches ; that when his
elongation ceased, he sprang back, like a
piece of India rubber, to his original dimen
sions. It is suggested that, if spirits can
pull a man out, they ought sometimes to
shut him up permanently. It is pleasant
to be informed that men who have been
badly smashed, with & bomb-shell for ex
ample, walk about the other world in Don
nybrook attitudes—smashes spiritualized
and unrepaired. “ Mediums” do not lie, so
Home says, but the spirits possessing them
frequently prevaricate. We blush to hear
that Mr. Home haa“ frequently seen heads
lying in ladies laps during the sittings of
his spiritual seances.” After this, we are
done with him, though it is shrewdly inti
mated that such pranks may be played
among the “ progressive,” when the gas
burns low, without involving anything
very spiritual In their character.
Vain Tbavelino —Many valuable lives
have been sacrificed la the endeavor to
find the sources of the Nile. After all the
trouble taken, misery endured and Intellect
wasted, little more Is known on this
subject than was known to Ptolemy who
lived many, many years ago. Paul
Morphy had a fine brain but he worse
than wasted it on bits of ivory. The Afri
can explorers In search of the Nlle-source
went forth with vigorous minds and heroic
courage, but they have hardly added any
thing practical and beneficial to the sum
of the world’s knowledge. Even 1 )r. Liv
ingstone, the last and most renowned of
these explorers, writes despondingly and
wearily. He tries to comfort himself that
somehow he is working with Providence,
but he is by no means sure that his African
game has been worth his English candle.
“ Loyal.”—A long residence at Wash
ington, as Juarez’ minister, made Romero
intensely 1011. The intensity of his loyal
ty is cropping out in Mexico. We now
learn that charges have been filed against
him in the Mexican Congress as follows:
Ineligibility to discharge the duties of Sec
retary of the Mexican Treasury; misman
agement of public funds ; fleecing soldiers;
being inaccessible except to those willing
to mount a velocipede to reach the minis
ter ; refusal to examine into alleged cus
toms frauds In Vera Cruz, and contenting
himself solely with the excuses of the ens
i toms officer, on that officer’s word of honor.
The Difference. —“ A clergyman went,
to a hotel to order a dinner for a number
of clerical friends. ‘ May I ask, sir,’ de
manded the waiter gravely, ‘ whether the
party Is High Church or Low Church?’
‘Now, what on earth,’ cried the clergy
man, ‘do my friends’ opinions matter to
you ?’ ‘ A great deal, sir,’ rejoined the
waiter: ‘if High Church, I must provide
more wine ; if Low Church, snore willies' ”
The Macon Executive Committee must
have been equally divided between High
and Low Church, if Isaac’s bill for $1,900
Is to be considered a proof. *
Mrs. Stowe.— lt is reported that Mrs.
Stowe’s book on Btron will shortly ap
| pear, but she has great misgivings as to its
j effect. Her mind has been injured by ad
verse criticism and, for once in her life, she
mistook her powers of endurance. A cor
respondent of the Cincinnati Gazette says
that constant fits of depression have re-
I salted in a dangerous condition of brain,
“ b«r&ase women Ere far more
“ crfflclam chart jftap’ This is
true; inkjtsach w6men ought iobemfrisitivT
before the commission of an impropriety as
well as afterward.
North and South.— The Courier-Jour
nal says; “The vast superiority of the
North to the Bonth in numbers gave her
the victory in the war, but tha same cause
cannot give her the victory in peace.
The nine millions of tliu South have it in
their power to outdo the twenty-five mil
lions of the North in the noble competition
for the achievement of wealth and pros
perity."
True, but there is an obstacle in the way,
at present—a thing called Congress.
Mors of Our Backbone.—A telegram
from Washington to the Courier-Journal
runs thus:
“It ha» transpired within a short time
that an effort is to be made to keep Georgia
unrepresented in the coming session of
Congress, on the ground that she lias not
been properly reconstructed. The move
ment proposes a committee to send for per
'onsand papers in order to take official
cognizance of the expulsion of colored mem
bers by the Legislature of that State.”
Yd, vot of it f '•
Georgia's Backbone. —A high and
mighty Washington correspondent of the
New York Times says “ the backbone of
Georgia must be broken."
Well, go ahead and try. We have a
pretty stiff backbone, and somebody may
get hurt if too venomously inclined to snap
it. We don’t care a cent about getting
into the “ Union,” but we will not go In or
stay out with a broken backbone, if we
know it.-
Suez and Panama. —The successful
completion of the Suez Canal has given re
newed impetus to the project of cutting a
way for commerce through the isthmus of
Panama. The French engineer had an
Isthmus 72 miles in width to overcome;
the American will have but 28. By the
Nicaraguan route a canal of only 16 miles
would be required.
Funny.— The *• Parsee Merchant ” Ccri
osibhoy, who is writing letters in the
World to Hobace Greeley, refuses to be
converted to Christianity because the
Americans permit morphine monopoly
and a tax of 140 per cent, on castor oil.
He thinks fire-worshiping is better than
robbing the sick in the name of humanity.
Ketchum. —New York, ever on the alert
for sensations, Is trying to get up a public
consecration of the released forger Ketch
um. Against this the Missouri Republican
protests, and says: “If vice ever becomes a
rarity in this world of ours, we may then
afford to apotheosize the vicious, bnt not
before.”
Safe.— Vice-President Colfax recently
delivered an address at the opening of the
Baltimore Inebriate Asylum. He said:
“ It was generally brilliant Intellects who
fell victims to drunkenness.” This Is not
strictly correct, bnt It saves Colfax from
delirium tremens.
Positive Proof.— There are many proofs
of fraud about the recently excavated stone
giant of Onondaga, but none so formidable
as P. T. Barnum’s application to purchase
an interest in it.
Judge Chase.— There will very soon be
a Titan conflict between Congress and the
Supreme Court. We shall then see wheth
er Judge Chase knows how to wield the
thunderbolts that make the Kings of Men.
Dead. —Hon. 8. 8. Nicholas, of Ken
tucky, whose political controversy with
Alexander H. Stephens became famous,
is just dead, at the age of seventy-three.
Another Good Man Gone. —Btephen
Jackson, after a long and lingering sick
ness, died at the residence of his son, Judge
L. B. Jackson, in this county, on Saturday
last, the 27th alt., at the advanced age of
91 years. He had long been a citizen of
Greene county, having removed here from
Virginia in 1815.— Greensboro Herald.
Our New York Correspondence.
New York, November 20.
The question, how to deal with the mat
ter of governing this great city and its
suburbs, will receive the first attention of
the State Legislature, which is about to
assemble at Albany, and the leaders of the
Democratic party, who Teel that they have
a sort of white elephant on their hands,
are eagerly casting about for expedients
which shall redeem the strongest Demo
cratic city of the United States from the
reproach which attaches to its local gov
ernment, and at the same time satisfy the
party aud the tax payers. On their suc
cess in accomplishing this important work,
it is felt that the very existence of Tam
many Hall as a dominant political power
depends. A great portion of the Demo
cratic party is so far alienated that its dic
tum goes for little or nothing with them.
I am sorry to say that the subject is not
yet approached with that integrity of spirit,
that singleness of purpose, that thorough
devotion to correct principles which prom
ise success in dealing with it. It Is true
that the whole business of governing this
city by commissioners bis become unpopu
lar, but the most uupopular feature of
them Is the “ double-headed ” feature. To
be more explicit, what is most disliked is
the creation of commissioners equally di
vided between leaders of the two great par
ties, by which all criticism is suppressed,
and the utmost extravagance and corrup
tion are fostered. Commissioners, for
whose conduct either or any party might
be held responsible, would not be unpopular.
But It Is precisely this double-headed
feature in this “commission business’’
which Tammany Hall seems determined to
retain, and which will inevitably destroy
her political power, by demonstrating to
the Democracy of the wholo country, that
for the sake of a lion’s share of the patron
age of our municipal government she is
willing to falsify a long record of fidelity to
Democratic principles.
The Board of in this city, a
Radical contrivance to defeat the voice of
the people in the control of their county
affairs, and which I have heretofore ex
plained to be destructive of the forms as
well as the principles of Republican Insti
tutions—frauds in canvassing are not more
so—this Board Tammany Hall shows an
inclination to perpetuate. There is little
doubt that Henry Smith, the Chairman of
the Radical State Executive Committee,
has received a place in that Board at the
late election, defeating, through the con
nivance of Tammany Hall, a popular and
worthy Democrat. It is useless to warn
Tammany Hall of the end which will fol
low these wrongs. She seems bent on her
own destruction.
Among the schemes which find most
favor In influential circles is one which
looks to the consolidation of the city of
New York and such of her suburbs as lie
wholly within the boundaries of the State
of New York, in one grand municipality or
city. This will Include the whole of the
counties of New York and Kings, two
towns of Queens county, and the two
Southern towns of Westchester county.
Some favor also the incorporation of Rich
mond county, or Staten island, in the great
city, as it comes naturally and from neces
sity within our police districts. A muni
cipality embracing this large extent of ter
ritory would contain a population of but
little less than two millions, sending eight
members to Congress, and nine of the thirty
two members to the State Senate. This
great population and wealth, it is proposed
to govern with a single legislative body,
with simple but ample powers, and a Chief
Executive Department, constructed some
what after that of the President of the
United States, which It is easy to hold re
sponsible, and at the same time has ample
strength to protect itself against faction.
This scheme, if carried out with even a fall
spirit of devotion to the interests of our
people, would be attended with happy re
sults. The great trouble with us has been
the dispersion of Executive authority and
the multiplication of “ money spending ma
chines ” of every sort.
A .potable miser has been brought to the
attention of the public through his suddeu
death at a third rate hotel in Jersey City.
He occupied an apartment in the garret,
and lived in a miserable manner; partaking
sparingly of the coarsest food and wearing
the same clothing for years together. He
was found dead in his chair, and au exami
nation of his apartment revealed the fact
that ho had am’ssed wealth to the amount
of about six hundred thousand dollars,
which, in a will, he demised to a brother
and sister living in Connecticut.
Another Sickles-Key case forces Itself
upon public notice. The shooting of one
of the Tribune staff of writers, A. D. Rich
ardson bys name, by one McFarland, has
set newspaper circles Iff ttfljlazc of excite
ment. There is much dispute about the
facts of the case, and the free love philoso
phy which permeates the Tribune establish
ment sympathizes actively with Richard
son. Mr. Vice-President Colfax sends a
condoling dispatch to him. But all this
won’t do. The Tribune writer must take
his station with Key, and Hiscock, and the
less notorious persons In * their “ line."
McFarland, the aggrieved husband, is
extremely unattractive in his personal
appearance, some twenty years older than
his wife, and of late years he has not been
able to afford her a comfortable support.—
His wife took the staze, and thus fell in
with Richardson, who is a man of consid
erable wealth. Some time since, when
Richardson was escorting Mrs. McFarland
home, McFarland shot him, but only suc
ceeded in Inflicting a slight flesh wound.—
Richardson then publicly announced his
intentiou of marrying Mrs. McF. whenever
she should succeed in getting a divorce
from her husband. This, it is understood,
she had procured in a wild-cat Indiana
court, and she had resumed her maiden
name of Sage, when McFarland, driven to
frenzy by his misfortunes, fired the shot, and
from its effect Richardsou now lingers at the
point of death. The. sympathy which Rich
ardson receives is a fair illustration of
Radical morals.
The Spanish cloud assumes ominous pro
portions. It Is believed that Spain will
make war unless we permit her to remove
the gunboats which she has had built at this
port. Spanish agents, as well as many who
look at the matter dispassionately, contend
that Spain has every thing to gain and
nothing to lose by a war with this country.
Her fleets could destroy our commerce,
while we could no’, touch her except
through Cuba, and that is already lost,
practically, to Spain, and were we to seize,
the solution of the matter would not be
dishonorable to Spain.

The Colored Preacher, Sella Martin.
—The Washington Star gives a sketch of
Sella Martin, the colored preacher in that
city, whose daughter in the public schools
has raised the mixed-school controversy in
that city. We make the following ex
tracts :
Sella Martin was boru in Georgia, edu
cated in Michigan, and ordained in Buffalo,
N. Y. He shortly after attracted public
attention by being called to the pulpit of
the well-known Tremont Temple, in Bos
ton, a white congregation, numbering three
thousand hearers. Martin was for four
years pastor of a Boston church, and during
that time visited England. During bis
visit he was received by the Hon. C. F.
Adams at his receptions in London, and
acted as chaplain in the American thanks
giving dinner at Bt. James’ Hall. Martin
resigned his pastoral charge In Boston in
January 1868.
He then went to England and took
charge of a church in the east end of Lon
don, and for nearly two years he discharg
ed the double duties of pastor of a church
and lecturer for the Union Society, visiting
all the principal cities of Great Britain from
twice to three times. He returned to the
United States in .Tnne 1864, and had a
public reception at Cooper Institute ten
dered by Peter Cooper, Cyrus W. Field,
Charles H. Marshall, Henry Ward Beecher,
William Cullen Bryant, Jonathan Sturges,
Win E. Dodge, A. A. Low,Horace Greeley,
David Dudley Field, and many others.—
Since then he has written and spoken in
this country on behalf of the freedmen. He
returned to Great Britain and spoke before
the Congregational Union, the General
Assemblies of the Established and Free
Churchesof Scotland, besides revisiting and
speaking in all of the large cities of the
United Kingdom. When he returned to
the United States he received a call from
the Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church
of Washington city, which was accepted,
and of which he has been pastor for about
a year, and where he ministers to a mixed
congregation of white and colored hearers.
Martin is a mulatto of genteel appearance,
about thirty-eight years of age, and charac
terized by an emphatic but courteous man
ner.
No Man to Hold Two Offices.—The
Washington correspondent of the Tribune
has the following:
The subject of persons holding two
offices at the same time is again under con
sideration by the Departments, and it is
not improbable that heads of Bureaus will
unite in asking Congress for the passage of
a law prohibiting United States civil offi
cers from holding official positions under
State or jnunicipal laws. It is held that
the practice, which has so largely obtained
lately, works great injury to the Govern
ment business. The subject has been again
brought up in consequence of the number
of revenue officers, especially in North Car
olina, who hold State positions, which di
vide the attention of the officer.

WHAT IS A' TONIC?
Boar this in mind—that although a tonic ls,(o a
certain exto.it, a stimulant— a stimulant unmodified by
any medicinal substances is not a lonic, but a obbiu-,
ta»t. In HOSTETTKR’ri (STOMACH BITTERS
there is a stimu'ating eerent of the purest grade
manufactur and in this or any other country Every
fiery and corrosive oil or acid which contaminates
the ordinary liquors of commerce L expelled from (ho
rye spirit which forms the alcoholic basis of the BIT-.
TERS, by ca o f ul anti repeated tectilie ition. The
juices of the valuable roots, barks and herbs, infused
into this wholesome product of the finest grain, stilt
further modify its nature; so tbit it becomes, in
fact, a simple diffusing - gent, minus all the heady aud
brain exciting properties which be'ong, more or less,
to all liquors in a raw state. It is merely the safe
and harmless vehicle which renders tbe medicinal vir
tues of the prrparation effective—lncreasing their re
ive power and diffusing them through (ho system
Hence the pleasant and geutle glow wbl :li is expe
rienced a ter taking a dose of the BITTEIW. In
stead of e eating headache, as unmedicatod stimu

will be given to any person who, on analysis, will dis

in DR. HURLEY’3 AGUE TONIC. It is purely
veoeTABLB, and the most happy combination that
the science of medicine has as yet developed to suc
cessfu ly combat the most prevalent diseases incident
to a blliious or malarious climate. It is the most
perfect anii-p riodic—always Breaking the CbtU in
three or four doses; but better than that or all else,
and what reader* it the most efficient and valuable
compound extant, is the universally conceded fact
that it loaves the patient in better health than before
the attack, with no puffing up oi the skin, no buzzing
la the head, no deafness, no Impaired vision, but a
clear head, a transparent skin, a blight eye, an elastic
step and buoyant health.
It elimin ates disease from the system by dissipating
engorgements of the secretions, exciting the Uver to
healthy action and giving the pancreatic and hepatio
Juices their normal condition and healthy flow.
It is a better preventive than cure, and If people
could be prevailed upon to take it, in say half doses
three times a day, during the chilly season, they
would have perfect immunity from chills an l all the
train of concomitant diseases; but who, except the
very prudent, will take medicine before they are sick ?

FOR THE CURE OF

CHILLS AND FEVER
TUK proprietor of this celebrated medicine tart"
ly claims for it a superiority over all ever offered to
tho public for the safe, certain , speedy and permanent
cure of Ague and Fever, or Chills and Fever, whether
of short or long standing. Ho refers to the entire
Western and Southwestern country to hear him testi
mony to the truth of the assertion that in no ease
whatever will It foil to eure, if the directions are
strictly followed and carried out. In a great many
eases a single dose has been sufficient for a eure, and
whole families have been cured by a Magic buttle
with a perfect restoration of the gencrarnuealtb. It
is, however, prudent, and in every case more certaii
w cure, if its use la continued In smaller doses for i
week or two after the disease has been checked, mort
especially in difficult and long standing cases.-
Usually, this medicine will not require any aid to
keep the bowels In good order; should the patient
however, require a cathartic medielne after having
taken three or four doses of the Tonic, a single dost
of BULL’S VEGETABLE FAMILY PILLS wl
be sufficient.

Instance to have the wished-for effect. I am doing s
pretty large country practice, and have daily use tor
some article of the kind. lam free to confess that 1
know of no remedy recommended by tho ablest au
thors that Is so certain and speedy In Us effects. On
the contrary they are uncertain in the extreme. M y
object in writing you is to find out upon wbat terms
I con got the medicine directly from you. If I can
get It upon easy terms, I shall use a great deal of It.—
I am aware that tho use of such articles Is contrary to
the teachings and praetieo of a great majority of tb<
regular line of M. D.’s, but I see no Just cause or good
sense In discarding a remedy which we know to be
efficient, simply because we may be Ignorant of Its
combination. For my pnrt, I shall make it a rule to
use all undan.v means te alleviate suffering human
Ity which I may be able to command —not hcsl
ratingbecause soma o a mare ingenious
may have learned its effects first, and secured the sole
right to secure that knowledge. However, I am by
no means an advocate or supporter ol the thousands
of worthless nostrums that flood the country, that
purport to core all manner of disease to which hu
man flesh is heir. Please reply soon, and Inform me
