The Barnwell (S. C.) Railroad.— There
is discussion in progress mow as to the most
advantageous route on which this road
shall be located, touching the local and
connecting benefits to be secured. Iu the
Barnwell Journal , of Saturday, a couple of
planters favor the building of the road by
the uearest route to Millen, Ga. The first,
writing from “On the Runs," makes this
proposition:
If the Barnwell Railroad will cross the
Salkehatchie at or above the upper bridge,
(Trotti’s causeway,) and after getting on
good firm highland, take an air line for the
Port Royal Road, in the direction of Millen,
Ga., I am prepared to give the company
1,000 acres of land on and near the road.
The second correspondent, writing from
Fairview, presses the advantage of an air
line road through Barnwell, from Millen,
Ga., to Columbia, S. C., the Barnwell Com
pany to run their road due west from
Baruweil Court House, and as soon as the
Great Salkehatchie is crossed, push for the
point on the Port Royal Railroad in the
Hue for Millen
This correspondent, in detailing the ad
vantages of the above route, says:
Running due west from Barnwell Court
House, the Barnwell Road would cross
Turkey creek at or above the bridge, and
just there, and right away, would a factory
be started. The same course (due west)
would put the road over the Salkehatchie
at or just below the Robinson & Harley old
mills, Where nature has fixed everythinf to
spin the cotton of all Barnwell. If neces
sary, dam and pond there, but await the
road to start spindles. After getting over
the river at this point, strike boldly for
Millen, through hill and over dale, and you
soon pass the beautiful and romantic
“runs,” near Judge Aldrich’s mills, and
where an immense, yet easily controlled,
water power awaits but for this road to
meke our deservedly popular citizen, the
Judge, a “ Sprague,” and that wilderness a
“Lowell.” These arc sure to be factory
sites at once; and they would make the
road permanently profitable, while many
other lovely and useful streams flow imme
diately on the tract of the line. Barnwell
haviDg more available water power than
any portion of the world of the sane area,
and being the home of the cotton plant,
this railroad and factories “will be cause
and effect.” Ido not know that this line,
as “blazed out” by your correspondent,
would touch his place, but if it be adopted
so as to give us a depot west of the Salke-.
hatebie, and not south of Barnwell Court
House, J. will take SSOO worth of stock.
Gir.vrdey’s Opera House. —Mr. Hackett
achieved a great triumph last evening in
his personations of Monsieur Mallet and
Felix O’Callaghan. In the first play, he
performed the part of an exiled Frenchman
to perfection —a Frenchman of noble senti
ments aud exalted character distracted by
the imbecility of a Post Office clerk. The
agony he displayed in his encounters at the
Post Office was constantly provocative of
smiles and tears, and the storvof his career
was a master-stroke of pathos. Mr. Ryan,
as Seth Howe, the “ man of letters” was
admirable. At the conclusion of this ex
quisite dramatic sketch, Mr. Hackett was
twice called for by the vociferous applause
of the audience, but responded only once.
If Monsieur Mallet was a triumph, Felix
O’Callaghan was a decisive victory. In
this character Mr. Hackett glided quite
naturally into the embodiment of an ad
venturous Irishman. The audience was
kept in a roar of merriment from first to
last. Mr. Hackett was again called before
the curtain, and said that, ho “was proud
of the approbation lie had received.”
In the first play, Messrs. Rose and Knapp
unit Misses Eld ridge and Herbert aptly
seconded the chief performer. Messrs.
Wood aud Parker and Mrs. Eldriilge and
Miss Alexander were equally praiseworthy
as auxiliaries in the latter comedy.
To-night we are to have a repetition of
King Henry IV, and of course everybody
will go to see it.
Recorder’s Court.— Yesterday, the fol
lowing cases were disposed of by Recorder
Crump:
Wm. H. Read, violation of the 18th sec
tion. Plead guilty. Fined $5 and cost, or
ten days on the chain gang.
Lewis White (not white), violation of the
18th section. Plead not guilty. Found
guilty, and fined $5 and cost, or ten days
on the chain gang.
Elliott Holmes (colored), violation of the
18th section —concerned in row at Central
Hotel. Plead not guilty. Found guilty,
and fined sls and cost, or thirty days on
the chain, gang.
Edward Duncan, of South Carolina, for
violation of the Gth section—disorderly
riding io streets. Plead guilty, and fined
$5 and cost.
George Jackson (colored), for yiolationor
18th section. Case dismissed.
Correction.— ln filling out our special
telegram from Atlanta, which appeared in
yesterday's paper, it was made erroneously
to say that, Mr. Scott made a speech, when
It should have said that McWhorter, who
was conducted to the chair by Messrs.
Bryant and Scott, made the speech. The
next mistake, however, was horrible. The
Green Line excursionists arrived in the Gate
City and not a party of barbarians called
Mormous.
As, however, Mr- Scott will in all proba
bility make a sps®ch—a good, strong de
cisive one of the right ring, and as our At
lanta brethren are above corruption by any
set of Mormon Missionaries?, w hope no
damage has been done.
Blockade in Western Freight.— The
Telegraph and Messenger says dispatches
were received in Macon on Wednesday
from Louisville houses stating that ship
ments could not be made in consequence of
the Louisville and Nashville and Nashville
and Chattanooga Railroads being choked
with freight. It is said there arc no less
than sixteen hundred ear loads at Nashville
awaiting transportation South, and at least
half that number at Chattanooga. In con
sequence of this, bacon, bulk meats, corn
i\jid other produce are getting scarce in our
market.
The truth is quite patent that the Ten
nessee and Kentucky railroads have more
business than they can properly attend to.
They arc very deficient in rolling stock.
They are certainly making enough money
to buy cars and engines without limit, and
their not doing so shows the worst sort of
mismanagement.
The Green Line Excursionists.—The
committee appointed by the city authori
ties of Atlanta, and also a committee ap
pointed by the Western and Atlantic Rail
road, met the Green Line Railroad excur
sionists at Chattanooga on Wednesday
morning. Judge Hotchkiss was requested
to extend to the excursionists at the break
fast house at Tunnel Hill a cordial wel
come, which he did most appropriately,
aud to which Col. V. P. Armstrong, of the
firm of McWarren, Armstrong & Cos., of
Louisville, Kentucky, happily responded in
acknowledgment of the welcome tendered.
The Constitution reports that the excur
sion finally arrived at 6 o’clock, p. m., at
Atlanta. The 18th United States regiment
band discoursed pleasant music, composed
for the occasion, while the Mayor, in a
speech, welcomed the delegation. After a
brief response by the Chairman of the Cin
cinnati delegation, the party, consisting of
275 guests, from Louisville, Nashville, Chat
tanooga and intermediate points, proceeded
to the National Hotel, where, being divided
into detachments, they were entertained.
A letter was read from Gov. Bullock, re
gretting that public duties prevented his
personal attendance, etc.
After the guests had satisfied hunger, the
champagne corks began to pop.
Chief Justice Brown was called for and
responded in a speech that elicited much
applause.
The Hon. Mr. Egglestone, of Ohio, ex-
Congri&sman, was called, and paid many
compliments to Georgia aud Atlanta, and
invoked an era of good feeling and pros
perity.
Mr. Armstrong, of Louisville, made a
stirring talk. He stated that the Georgia
trade with Kentucky was greater than that
of all the other Southern States together.
Mr. Roberts, of the Cincinnati Board of
Trade' Mr. Morris, of Louisville. Col. Hul
sey, of Atlanta, Mr. Anderson and Mr.
Baxter, of Louisville, all responded.
The good feeling and pleasant talk were
kept up for a long time.
The train left last night at II o’clock,
p. m., for Macon.
Savannah aud Macou are both making
large preparations to entertain the Green
Line Excursionists. Large committees
have been appointed to meet and take care
of them, and the affair promises to be a per
fect ovation.
The Income Tax. —ln the House, on
Wednesday last. Mr. Scheuck’s resolution
in regard to the income tax was passed k
It declares, in view of the doubts and mis
conceptions which have arisen, that the
true intent and meaning of the acts relat
ing to the income tax 1s that all persons
are liable to the payment of their proper
income tax accruing and to accrue for and
during and up to the end of 1870. and that
the assessment and collection of any such
tax in the year 1870, and remaining unpaid
on the first day of January, 1871, may, un
der the existing provisions of the law, be
made in the last mentioned year.
The resolution continues the income tax
for this year, but does not touch the ques
tion about the future continuance of the
income tax or the rate at which the tax
shall be imposed. That will be considered
when the House takes up the amendments
to the Internal Tax Law.
Dead-Head Privileges. —At the benefit
tendered Manager Ford by the citizens of
Charleston, some time back, the free list
was suspended by request, and every one
whoattended paid cheerfully, with, perhaps,
the one exception of Lieutenant Phillipy,
ol the detectives, who declined to pay, and,
on being refused admission, threatened to
have the theatre closed. On Tuesday night,
this self-same officer again presented him
self and demanded admission, which was
refused, unless he could show his pass.
This riled the detective, who had Manager
Ford, Mr. Levin, the Treasurer, and the
doorkeeper, before the Mayor’s Court, Wed
nesday morning, to answer to the charge
of refusing an officer admittance in the
theatre, a public place, on business. The
Mayor very sensibly dismissed the charge,
and the mat ter ended.
“ The Southern Home” is the name of
anew weekly paper, published in Charlotte,
N. C., by General D. H. Hill. We have re
ceived the first number, dated January 20.
It is a handsome, attractive looking sheet,
and bids fair to be an interesting visitor to
the family fireside. General Hill is a man
of rare gifts and accomplishments, and not
without, experience in the field of letters.—
Success to the Southern Home.
Dressing Oysters— They have revamp
ed an old story in New Hampshire, and re
late how a perplexed housewife, in Roches
ter, in that State, set before her guests her
first efforts at cooking oysters, with the
remark that she found it very difficult to
dress them, and so “just held on to their
wings and cut their stomachs off, and
guessed they’d be good.”
Superphosphate op Lime.— The atten
tion of our planting friends is directed to
the advertisement of Crichton & Son’s Am
moniated Soluble Superphosphate of Lime.
It will be seen that th's fertilizer is highly
commended by planters In Georgia and
other States, after a practical test of its.
virtues. Messrs. Isaac T. Heard & Cos., of
this city, will promptly fill all orders.

A Yellow Fever Vessel Quarantined.
—The Charleston Courier , ofyesterday, re
ports that the French steam sloop of war
Limler, Commander Comte, In six days
from Port au Prince, (Hayti,) arrived at
quarantine, below" that city, Wednesday
evening. She brings intelligence that
President Salnave, whose cause it was ap
parent from the last intelligence had be
come desperate, had been captured by his
enemies and shot. The Limier has on board
as passengers five of Salnave’s prominent
officials, among them a General, the Cap
tain of the port, and three others, all five
blacks. The crew of the L. suffered heavily
from yellow fever while stationed at Hayti,
some fifty officers and men having died
from it, but those on board are now con
valescenj, and are rapidly recovering. This
vessel is a fine specimen of a steam sloop of
war of superior model, has five gnns and
one hundred and sixteen men. She was
visited yesterday afternoon by the French
Consul and Dr. R. Lebbv, Port Physician.
Large Purchase.— The Charleston Cou
rier understands from the best authority,
that the South Carolina Railroad Company
has purchased the wharf of eighteen half
acres, known as Potter’s Wharf. This
property is bounded respectively by the
Northeastern Railroad on the north, by
Washington street on the west, by the Gas
Work property on the south, and by the
river on Jhe east, 1.250 leet, or over one-fifth
of a mile. Something large is evidently in
view.
A DRAWING-ROOM CHAT.—The follow
ing conversation took place In the drawing
room of a mansion on Clinton Avenue, Brooklyn
one pleasant forenoon about ten days ago.—
(Two ladies, Mrs. Morgan and Mrs. Knight,
had just dropped in for a morning’s call on
Mrs. Rapelje, the lady of the house.)
Mrs. M.—My dear Mrs. Rapelje, are you
sick? You look quite delicate.
Mrs. R.—No; not sick, exactly ; but suffering
lrom debility, aud dreadfully nervous. Do you
know, I could cry this minute.
Mrs. K —Too much excitement, I’m afraid.
Mrs. R.—Perhaps. But what can one do ?
In the gay season, one must give parties and
attend them.
Mrs. M.—l suppose so. Fashion is law—
more’s the pity. But you must take something
to tone vour system, or you’ll break down.
Mrs. R— I hate medicine! But you shall
prescribe for me. What would you advise?
Mrs. M.—Well; I’ll tell you my plan. When
ever I’m nervous or hysterical, or have a
headache, or am at all out of sorts, I take a
couple of tablespoonfuls of Plantation Bit
ters one or twice a day for a week or so, and
it invariably brings me round.
Mrs. K.—l do the same thing, with the same
pleasant result. I have implicit faith in that
article.
Mrs. R.—Well, ladies, on your recommenda
tion, I’ll try it.

COMMENDS THE SEATING OF MI
NORITY CLAIMANTS.
TERRY WILLING TO LET THE
HOUSE DECIDE.
McWhorter writes himself
PROVISIONAL SPEAKER.
HE DECIDES THE CLAIMANTS EN
TITLED TO SEATS.
THE SPEAKER TIRES UNDER MUCH
DISCUSSION.
HE ESSAYS TO CUT OFF DEBATE.
HE IS FOILED IN THE ATTEMPT
TO STIFLE MEMBERS.
f Special to the Constitutionalist.
Atlanta, Ga., January 27.
The Senate met at 12 o’clock, in. Sena
tors Welsh and Burton were sworn in, after
which the Senate adjourned to 10 o’clock
to-morrow.
The House met at 10 o’clock, a. m.
A message was read from Bullock, stat
ing that there were certain persons here,
claiming the seats of members declared in
eligible by Terry, and recommending that
the House admit them.
Bullock’s advisory communication repre
sented that Terry endorsed his gratuitous
advice to the House in reference to the ad
mission of those persons claiming the seats
of members pronounced ineligible, but was
willing to sahmit the matter to the House
for action.
The message was addressed to Mc-
Whorter, asßpeaker, and recommended the
prompt admission of W. S. Goodwyn, of
Cass county; Wm. Guilford, of Upson;
James A. Jackson, of Randolph; Jacob P.
Hutchings, of Jones ;H. C. Holcombe, of
Fulton; C. O. Johnson, of Spalding; Joseph
Armstrong, of Dooly ; and J. B. Nesbitt, of
Gordon.
Much discussion ensued upon the mes
sage.
, McWhorter claimed that he was Pro
visional Speaker, and as such would hold
the above named claimants entitled to
seats.
Shumate appealed from this decision to
House, when a prolonged discussion fol
lowed.
The Speaker’s energies began to flag un
der the discussion, when, to relieve his fa
tigue, he. was about to withdraw the mat
ter from the House, in order to cut off de
bate.
To this proposition Scott interposed a
barrier in the shape of a point of order.
The Speaker said he only claimed the
right to stop debate when it became weari
some.
Scott stoutly denied the right claimed by
the Speaker, maintaining that a call of the
previous question alone could stop debate.
Turner (he of P. M. fame) wanted to be
illuminated on the question.
Price maintained that the message was
premature, when submitted before the or
ganization of the House.
On appeal, the Speaker’s declsion was re
versed, by a vote of yeas, 63 ; nays, 65.
The Radicals then moved to adjourn,
which was defeated by a vote of yeas, 62 ;
nays, 64.
Scott nominated W. F. Holden as Speak
er pro iem.
The Radicals again moved adjournment.
The Speaker decided the motion to ad
journ in order, and put the question.
Upon the vote, the Speaker announced
the motion carried by 65 yeas to 63 nays.
There was foul play in this decision, as
the vote really stood 63 yeas to 65 nays.
The House then adjourned to 3, p. m.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
The House met at 3, p. m., pursuant to
adjournment.
Lane moved to have Bollock's message
read again.
Considerable wrangling followed, when
Bryant moved to adjourn to 10 o’clock to
morrow, which prevailed and the House
adjourned.
The Democrats expect to be strengthened
to-morrow by the arrival of three absent
members.
It was expected that Terrv would order
the claimants to be seated, but no such or
der has yet been promulgated.

WASHINGTON.
Washington, January 27—Noon.—Sena
tors Carpenter, Edmunds and Ferry, con
sidering Georgia, will favor anew election
throughout the State, or the reinstallation
of General Ruger as Provisional Governor.
Both anew election and the reinstalla
tion of Ruger seem probable. Much dis
satisfaction and difference of opinion exists
in Congress about Georgia.
Porter announced the approval of the
Virginia bill.
Platt, Ridgeway and Milner were seated.
The Honse voted to seat Porter, but he,
with Hare and Gibson, were not present,
but will be seated upon appearing at the
bar of the House. Booker, McKenzie and
Begar are held by the Elections Committee
for further consideration.
In the Senate, a resolution nullifying the
decisions of revenue officers regarding
wldsky seizures was indefinitely postponed.

Corbin, the President’s brother-in-law,
was before the Gold Panic Committee to
day.
Lewis, Senator from Virginia, was seated.
Porter, after a struggle, was also seated.
The President, replying to Mayor Bowen
and others regarding Washington, denied
intention of recommending appropriations
for the improvement of Washington now.
Such recommeudation would be disre
garded. Western members were especially
tenacious on this subject, but the year
closing March 3d would show a great re
duction of the public debt and less taxa
tion, and Congress, by that time, might see
the necessity of improving the Capital. He
had no doubt the time would come when
the Cabinet Ministers would be furnished
with houses free of rent by the Government.
Yb suppose that men representing the na
tion could, on the pittance of eight thous
and a year, give grand dinners anil recep
tions was simply ridiculous.
There is no probability of the Senate
passing the "bill abolishing the franking
privilege. Dawes’ speech, to-day, is con
sidered a complete vindication.
In the House, a bill establishing certain
steamship lines was introduced.
The Secretary was asked why he allows
collectors certain harbor fees in New York
after the Supreme Court declares it illegal.
The bill allowing Virginians who have
conscientious scruples to affirm wasf passed.
Porter, after a prolonged debate, was
seated.
The Speaker announced a special com
mittee on the postal telegraph—Washburn,
Wise, Lawrence, Dawes, Davis, Palmer,
Woodward and Beck.
The blit abolishing the franking privi
lege passed by 174 to 14. It repeals all
laws and parts of laws giving to any officer
or Department of the Government, or other
persons, the right either to send or receive
through the mails, free of postage, any let
ter. document or other mailable matter.
Dawes made a successful defense against
Butler’s attack or him regarding extrava
gance. Among other statements, Dawes
said, after visiting the Departments and
remonstrating against the estimates, he v;s
,ited the President, who said he knew little
of any other%han the estimates of the War
Department, which he was satisfied could
not be cut down.
Terry officially communicates to the War
Department the organization of the Georgia
House of Representatives. After a careful
examination of the law, Terry says he is
couvinced no authority exists for giving
the seats of ineligible members to those re
ceiving the next highest vote.
Members from newly restored States get
no back documents, they having heretofore
been distributed.
Senate joint resolution forbidding as
sessments from subordinates for presents
to superior officials passed, and goes to the
President.
A motion to call up the bill creating
Omaha a port of entry brought forth ex
unimportant ports of entry now in ex
istence.
Senator Lewis, from Virginia, qualified.
The bill making Omaha a port of entry
finally passed.
The currency bill was resumed and dis
cussed to adjournment.

ceived the next highest vote. The Gov
ernor recommended that, they be allowed to
take their seats; also, that General Terry
endorsed this course, but was willing to

House refused to seat them, by a vote of 63
to 65.

Certificate published daily. |
Bethany, Ga., October 29,1869.
Gentlemen: Having tried an experiment
with RusseßCoe’s Superphosphate, bought of
your agent, Mr- Louis Witkorski, I take pleas
ure in givUfK you the result of the same. I
planted mv cotton in the drill, on poor pine
land, a portion without guano, some with Rus
sel Coe’s Superphosphate and some with Ket
tlewell’B AA. The cotton was planted, culti
vated and picked at the same time. That ma
nured with Russel Coe’s Superphosphate gave
me a gain of thirty dollars per acre. The price
of your Superphosphate being about seven dol
lars for 200 ponnds, the qnantity used, giving a
net profit of twenty-three dollars (£23) over
and above the cost of the Phosphate. The eot
top manured with Kettlewell’s AA gave me a
profit of seven dollars per acre, oyer and above
the original cost, the same qnantity of guano
being used on both. Net profit on original pine
land :
Russel Coe’s Snperpbospate... .$23 00 per acre
Kettlewell’s AA 700 “
beiDg sl6 00 “
in favor of Russel Coe’s Superphosphate. I
have been very particular In gathering the cot
ton from the land as above stated, and feel It
my duty towards you and the farmers and
planters in this section of country to make the
above statement. I consider Rnssel Coe’s Su
perphosphate an excellent fertilizer, and one
which, having been used by a number of plant
ers in this section, has In every instance given
entire satisfaction.

COOKING STOVE,
WITH
Dumping Orate.
THE STEWART COOKING BTOVE,
Which has hitherto maintained an acknowl
edged superiority over all competitors, is now
Introduced to the public with the addition of a
DUMPING GRATE and ASH DRAWER. In
point of Economy and General Utility, it has
been conceded that the Stewart Stove is
AHEAD OF ALL OTHERS.
By this addition of the NEW DUMPING
GRATE, the heating Surface of the oven is
greatly increased, and the capacity of the flues
nearly doubled. The Stove can never have a
defective draft, and no dust can escape while
cleaning or dumping the grate. All parts of
the oven bake alike. The oven is ventilated in
a manner entirely new, aud by means of which
the oven is more quickly prepared for baking,
and the baking is better done than ever before.
The Fire Box has the Perforated Iron Lin
ings and cannot burn out.

VERMIFUGE.
W HY is it that so many children die under
the age ot five years ? That a large proportion
of children die under that age has long been a
subject ot remark, and without a satisfactory
cause ascertained, it is certain.
Also, it is known that worms exist in the
human system from its earliest infancy ; there
fore parents, especially mothers, who are more
constantly with their children, cauuot be too
observing of the first symptoms of worms ; fer
so surely as they exist, can they be
SAFELY AND CERTAINLY
removed from the most delicate infant, bv the
timely use of
B. A. Fahnestock’s Vermifuge.
It is perfectly harmless, contains no Mercury,
being a
Portly Vegetable Composition,
And may be administered with the UTMOST
SAFETY TO CHILDREN OF ALL AGES.
Worm Confections, made more for the pur
pose of pleasing the palate than of overcoming
the disease, have been manufactured all over
the country, bnt their short lease of life is
nearly exhausted, and B. A. FAHNESTOCK’S
VERMIFUGE continues to grow in favor daily.
Caution.

A. FAHNESTOCK’S VERMIFUGE, be careful

Ayer’s Sarsaparilla,
FOR PURIFYINCt THE BLOOD.
The reputation this ex-
p--,- cellent medicine enjoys,
. igk is derived from its ewes,
many of which are truly
' r-yjV v marvellous. Inveterate
Jr eases of Scrofhlous dis
ff ease, where the system
J\ seemed saturated with
fcw corruption, have been
—ysl~~* r ' , *R purified and cured by it.
T" Scroftilous affections and
disorders,which were ag
gravated by the scrofu
— i is i» si foils contamination until
they were painfhlly afflicting, have been radically
cured in such great numbers in almost every sec
tion of the country, that the public scarcely need to
be informed of its virtues or uses.
Scrofulous poison is one of the most destructive
enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and unfelt
tenant of the organism undermines the constitution,
and invites the attack of enfeebling or fatal diseases,
without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again,
it seems to breed infection throughout the body, ana
then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop
into one or other of its hideous forms, either on the
surface or among the vitals, In the latter, tuber,
cles may be suddenly deposited in the lungs or
heart, or fom®** formed in the liver, or it snows
its presence by eruptions on the skin, or foul ulcer
ations on some part of the body. Hence the occa
sional use of a bottle of this Sarsaparilla is ad-,
visable, even when no active symptoms pf disease
appear. Persons afflicted with thy fallowing conp
})laints generally find immediate relief, and, at
ength, cure, by the use of this SAJtSAFAMXZ
ZA: St. Anthony’s five, Moss or Erysipelas,
Tetter. Salt Rheum, Scald Hoad, Ringworm,
Sore Ryes, Sore Ears, and other eruptions or
visible forms of Scrofulous disease. Also in the
more concealed forms, as Dyspepsia, Dropsy,
Heart Disease, Fits, Epilepsy, Neuralgia,
and the various ulcerous affections of the muscu
lar and nervous systems.
Syphilis pr Venereal and Mercurial Diseases
are cured by it, though a long time is required for
subduing these obstinate maladies by any medicine.
But long continued use of this medieine will cure
the complaint. Leucorrheea or Whites, Uterine
mcei-ations, and Female Diseases, are com
monly soon relieved and ultimately cured by its
purifying and invigorating effect. Minute Direc
tions for each case are found in our Almanac, sup
plied gratis. Rheumatism and Gout, when
caused liy accumulations of extraneous matters
in the blood, yield quickly to it, as also lAver
Complaints, Torpidity, Congestion or Inflam
mation of the Liver, and Jaundice, when arising,
ns they often do, from the rankling poisons in the
blood. This SAXSAFAXIZZA is a great ro
atorer for the strength and vigor of the system.
Those who are Languid and LAstloos, Despon
dent, Sleepless, and troubled with Ferrous Ap
prehensions or Fears, or any of the affections
symptomatic of Weakness, will find immediate
relief and convincing evidence of its restorative
power upon trial.
