Holloway’s Oistmsnt amd Pills.—Extraor.
dinary Cure of a Bad Breast—The wife of Mr.
Arthur Bum, of New Orleans, Louisiana, was
after the birth of their last child, a constant suf
ferer with bad breast there were several holes in
it, and despite of the various remedies tried, her
husband could not get anything to cause it to
heal. After every other remedy had failed, to
be » efit the sufferer, she had recourse* to Hollo,
way’s Ointment and Pills, which as a matter of
course, quickly coused an improvement in the ap
pearance of the affected parts, and by preservance
with these'fine remedies for a few weeks, she
was completely cured. This wonderful Oint
ment will also readily cure all diseases of the old.
McCurdy's Abitmmrtic —Wm. Kay, Publish
er, Atlanta, Ga. Mailed to all parts, (free
of postage) for SI 50.
We have examined this work, now
completed, and take pleasure in recommending
it to the patronage of the Southern public. It
is beyond question, better adapted to the wants
of Southern Schools than anything of the kind
we have seen, and in addition to this, is the
recommendation of having been gotten up .by
Southern talent and industry.
The work is practical, and the examples are
such as occur in the daily transactions of life,
applying rules and principles to just such cases
alone, and thus relieving the pupil of his great
est difficulty, by presenting familiar examples,
instead of complex and unheard of exercises
which, however well they may illustrate the
rule does not familiarize him with its applica
tion—the great desideratim in mathematical
studies. Seq advertisement in another column

HOLLOWAY’S OINTMENT-
A CERTAIN CUBE FOR SALT RHEUM!!!
Copy *f a Letter from Mr. F. Does burg, of Mar
ehall, Michigan, dated 3d May, 1864
T» Paorssaoa Hollow at —
•“Sir, —I owe a duty to youraelf and the pub
lic tc acknowledge the great benefit I have re
ceived from the use of yeur valuable Medicine*.
I was for a considerable period almost a martyr
to Salt Rheum. The pains in my limbs were at
times so excruciating that I was unable to attend
to my daily business. I tried medicines of every
kind, but they were of no avail whatever the dis
ease continued to increase in violence, and I be
gan to despair of obtaining even temporary lelief
from sufferings. At last I was induced, by the
perusal of one of your hand-bills, to give your
Pills and Ointment a trial; and after the first
two or three doses I experienced so much relief,
that I determined to persevere, and am happy to
say the result is that lam perfectly cured; and
although several months have elapsed since that
time, I have not felt the slightest pain, nor any
return whatever of the disease.
“I am. Sir, year’s respectfully,
(Signed) “F. DOESBURG.”

“Ups and Downs” is a cluster of sketches and
incidents in real life, narrated with a grace el
thought and flow of expression rarely to be met.

“Mother I thy gentle hand hath mighty power,
For thou alone may’et train, and guide, and mould.
Plante that shall blossom, with an order sweet,
Or, like the cursed fig tree, wither, and become
Vile oumherere of the ground.”
Brief Extracts from Notices of the Press
• • • A tale which deserves to rank with
"The Wide, Wide World.” It is written with
graphic power, and full of interest Hartford
Rep.
• • • Her writings are equal to the best
She is a second Fanny Fern.— Palmyra Dem.
• * • It is recommended by its excellent
moral tone and its wholesome practical inculca
tions.—-V. Y. Tribune.
• • • Full of grace and charm, its styb
and vivacity make it a most amusing work. For
the intellectual and thinking, it has a deeper les
son, and while it thrills the heart bids parents
beware of that weakness which prepares in infan
cy the misery of man. “Lewie” is one of the
most popular books now before the public, and
needs no puffiing, as it is selling by thousands.—
A’. Y. Day Book.
• • • The moral of the book is inestima
ble. The writer cannot fail to be good, as ehe so
faithfully portrays the evils which owe their ori
gin to the criminal neglect of proper parental dis
cipline—Hunt's Merchants’ Magazine.
• • • The plot is full of dramatic interest
yet entirely free from extravagance; the incidents
grow out of the main plot easily and naturally,
while the sentiment is healthy and unaffected.—
Commend us to more writers like Cousin Cicely
—books which we can see in the hands of our
young people without uneasiness. Books which
interest by picturing life as it is, instead of giving
us galvanized society.— National Dem. erat.

named Jackson Baggett, who sometimes
calls himself John Fuller. At the time of arrest
he was riding a large horse, with a
white face, and about five years old, which horse
was probably stolen by Baggett as this scoundrel
was seen some weeks since on a horse answeripg
in description to one then stolen from a citizen in
the lower part of this county. Tbe horse in his
possession when I stopped him had strong marks
of traces on his thighs, and rigged off with a I lack
quilted scat saddle much wo.n. halter-chain

A Tale ofSlavery in Sherwood Forest. By

&c. Ivol. I2mo. Price, SI.
This new work by this popular author is pro
nounced by an able critic the best of his produc
tions. Treating of a time whose very history is
tinged with tho grandest romance; d< scribing
scenes which coincide nearly with those of the
most magnifiicent and gorgeous of historical nov
els, Sir Walter Scott’s Ivanhoe ; and speaking of
persons who actually lived and moved in these
stirring days, it is a romance of the most thrilling
interest. It abounds with glowing descriptions
of scenery ; and the personages are . cast in a
modei of stern reality which renders their daring
deeds and chivalric bearing the more romantic
and enchanting.
