“It is very dry. No vain of any

“We have ha<l no rain for the last

THE FAILURES MOW THEY EFFEi'l' THE
MARKETS.
New York, July 28. -The excite
ment which prevailed in Wall street
yesterday was not visible to-day. Af
fairs went on calmly, as usual. There
was, however, an undercurrent of de
pression In consequence of the fail
ures. The news from London deny
ing that, the Union Bank of London
was lu trouble, caused some relief.
A firmer tone pervaded the gold and
stock markets, but confidence is not
restored, ns there is still a probabili
ty of further failures. The cotton
market was rather nervous, but closed
better, and no trouble is anticipated
in that direction.
The firm of Martin T. Bunn & Cos.,
one of tiic oldest houses in the gro
very trade in this city, has suspended.
They own sufficient real estate to
more than cover their deficit, and
will pay dollar for dollar.
Worth & Watson, wholesale tea
and coffee dealers, Duane and Green
wich streets, also suspended. Lia
bilities $55,000. They will also pay
their entire indebtedness in full.
Judge Shipman was busy tu-day
making an examination of Duncan,
Sherman & Co.’s books. A statement
will probably be ready by the begin
ning of next week.
The Secretary of the Commercial
Warehouse Company, which failed
to-day, says its liabilities may amount
to $1,500,000. The company has as
sets worth $4,000,000, but they are not
all available. It will bo two weeks
yet before full st • einents will be per
mitted. The company has been in a
precarious condition for some time
past, and latterly the firm asked their
creditors Tor an extension of four
months, with 20 per cent, interest,
which was refused and suspension
followed. The company does a large
business in making advances on
goods, which are stored in sixteen
large warehouses hero. These goods
are now left on their hands. The
company had been lately making in
judicious advances on Cuban bonds,
which helped to precipitate the crisis
in their affairs. Their bills payable
! arc of small amount. One of the
I members of the firm to-day said:
| “YVe think that by going on exten
; sion we can yet go through uil right.”
Chattanooga rotten .Alarltpt,
Chattanooga, July 28. An effort is
on foot among the principal business

that direction, in which much interest

Now’ Revised Edition.
| Entirely rewritten by the ablest writers ou every

and Maps.
Tlio work originally published under the title
of The Nkyv American Cyclopaedia was com
pleted iu 1803, since which time the wide circula
tion which it luis attained iu all parts of the
Unit'd States, and the siguuldevelopments which
have tukon place in every branch of science, lit- j
craturo and art, have induced tho editors and
publishers to submit it to an exact and thorough j
revision, and to issue anew edition entitled The
American Cycloimkdia.
Within the last ten years the progress of dls- j
covery in overy department of knowledge has j
made anew work of reference an imperative !
want.
The movement of political affairs lias kept poco
with the discoveries of science, and their Iruittu I
application to the industrial ami useful arts and !
tho convenience ami refinement of social life. !
Great YYurs and consequent revolutions have oc- j
curred, involving national changes of peculiar j
moment. The civil Y>ar of our own country, 1
which was nt its height when the last volume of
tho old work appeared, has happily been ended,
and anew course of commercial and Industrial
activity has been commenced.
l*nrgo accessions to our geographical kuowl
edge have been made by the indefatigable ex
plorers of Africa.
The great political revolutions of the last de
cade, with tho natural result of the lapse of time,
have brought into public view a multitude ot new
men, whose names are in every one's month, and
of whose lives every one is curious to know the
particulars. Great battles have been fought and
important sieges maintained, of which the de
tails ore as yet preserved only in the newspapers
or in the transient publications of the day, but J
which ought now to take their place in perma
nent and authentic history.
In preparing the present edition for the press,
it has accordingly been the aim of the editors to
bring down the information to the latest possi
ble dates, and to furnish an accurate account of
the most recent discoveries in acieuco, of every
fresh production iu literature, and of the new st
inventions iu the practical arts, as well aB to give
a succinct und original record of the progress of
political and historical events.
The work has been begun after long and care
ful preliminary labor, and with tho most utnplo
resources for carrying it on to a successful term
ination.
None of tho original stereotype plates have
been used, but every page has been printed ou
new type, forming iu fact u new Cyclopaedia, with
the same plan and compass as Its predecessor,
but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure,
and with such improvements in its composition
us have been suggested by longer experience and
enlarged knowledge.
The illustrations which aro introduced for tho
first time in the present edition Lave been added
not for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give
greater lucidity and force to tho explanations in
the text. They embrace all branches of science
and of natural history, and depict the most
famous ami remarkable features of scenery,
architecture and art, as well as tho various pro
cesses of mechanics and manufactures.
Although Intended for instruction rather than
embelisbmout, no pains have been spared to in
sure their artistic excellence; the cost of their
execution is enormous, ami it is believed they
will llnd u welcome reception us an admirable
feature of the Cyclopedia, and worthy of its
high character.
This work is sold to Hubacribers only, payable
on delivery of each volume. It will bo completed
in sixteen large octavo volumes, each containing
about 800 pages, fully illustrated with several
thousand Wood Engravings, uud with numerous
colored Lithographic Maps.

The Press, the Pulpit and the Lecture room
are silent on the subject of this disease. A false
delicacy withholds a know ledge in regard to vio
lation of Physiological Laws, and life-wrecks
shattered humanity, insanity, and premature
graves fill the world. No race, nation or posi
tion is exempt from the soul-destroying scourge.
Sleepless nights, twitchiug of the muscles,
trembling of the limbs, poor appetite, easily dis
turbed by noise or excitement, pimples and
blotches on the face, desire to avoid company, pe
culiar sensation over the whole body are among
the difficulties which attend this complaint.
The Cordial Balm of Syricum and Tonic Pills
will in u short time so cleanse the blood and
soothe tho nerves, and restore strength to the
body, us to make life enjoyable and happy.
EPILEPSY Oli FITS.
No other remedy will cure Epilepsy or Fits so
quickly as the Cordial Balm of Hyricum and Tonic
Pills.
Kidney Diseases
ami mauy other difficulties aro cured by the use
of the. Cordial Balm of Syrup uud Tonic Pills.
If the watery portions of our food are not pass
ed off, they must, when retained in the system,
produce serious difficulties. Language fails
when attempting to describe the sufferings of per
sons whose kidneys are out of order ; gravel,
back ache, inflammation of the bladder anil of tin
delicate membranes of the urinary organs are the
result if tho water is not regularly and properly
tarried through the kidneys.
The Cordial Balm of Syricum
iB effectual in promoting the secretion of the wa
tery and unnutrltious portions of tho food, and
in carrying it off by its proper outlets.
Whatever portion of our food is unserviceable
should be passed off in the water in sweat, and
from the bowels. If theso useless matters are
retained disease is sure to follow, for then the
blood becomes poisoned with the impurities
which should pass off in their proper channels.
The Cordial Balm of Syricum and Tonic Pills
is a powerful cleanser of the blood; it starts the
liver und kidneys into active operation, and acts
on all the secretions of tho body. It carries oil
old and foul elements in the blood, which are
slow und sure death if allowed to remain in the
system.

THE COBDIAL IJALM OF SYRI

is the only remedy that lias ever proved by prac
tical experlouco a benefit to those who suffer from
over-indulgence iu Alcoholic liquors, it com

the victim to health and vigor. A single trial will
prove it to be just what it. is recommended to be.

THE CORDIAL BALM OF SYRI
CUM AND TONIC PILLS
is a sure cure for tho habitual use of Mor
phine, so extensively used iu this country as a
stimulant. It will in a very short time com
pletely destroy the desire for this narcototic.
We have many testimonials from the first fami
lies in Europe and America, who testify fo its
efficacy.
O X* I TT M.
The alarming increase of tho use of this most
pernicious drug us a stimulant, by male and fe
male, and its peculiar effects, completely destroy
ing the digestive apparatus and shattering the
nervous system, effeminating and debasing the
mind, renders
The Cordial Balm of Syricum and Tonic Pills
of inestimable value, as it completely destroys all
desire for this most baneful drug, and restores
the nerves to a perfectly healthy state, even in
cases where opium has been used iu large quanti
ties and for u number of years.
[Davenport Democrat, Davenport, lowa.)
How few people aro fotfnd without some indi
cations of nervous disease. This truth has been
recognized ever since classic ages, when a sound
mind iu a sound body was held as the perfection
of human existence. Home from congenial dis
ease, others from youthful indiscretions, some
from alcoholic indulgence or too free use of to
bacco, suffer from tremor, palpitation of nervous
excitement—all of which can be removed and per
manently cured by tho English Remedy, tho Cor
dial Balm of Hyricum, which Ijah long been in the
old country tho favorite remedy, and which,
sinco its introduction into this country, has dis
tanced all other medicines having the same ob
ject in view'.
Boston, July 15, 1874.
I)R. G. K. Lothuop: Dear Hlr—l bog to inform
you that I have been troubled with Nervous
Debility for the past twelve years, and have been
unable to obtain any relief until I purchased a
package of the Cordial Balm of Hyricum at Mr.
Duncan’s drug store, corner of Leverett and
Green streets. The benefit derived from the use
of one package so far exceeded my expectations
that I address you this for publication, that
other suffers may avail themselves of the oppor
tunity to bo cured. Yours truly,

Lancaster, May 1 (, 1873.
D. G. E. Lothuop: Dear Blr—l have used up
all tho Cordial Balm of Syricum and Tonic Pills
that you let me have when you first undertook
my cure, and I cm glad to be able to inform you
that, thus far, I have derived greater benefit
from it than from any other medicine I have ever
taken in my life. I sleep better, and daily go
about rny work without hesitation or fear. My
nerves are getting steadier every day, and if I
continue to improve as fast as I have done for the
last few months since I have been taking your
medicine, I have no doubt but that I shall soon
again be a well man. With many thanks for the
good you have done rne, I enclose $26 for which
please send me as before, five more bottles of the
Hyricum and Pills, as I intend to keep up the use
of them until fully cured, as I believe I shall bo.
Very truly yours,

MALARIA!
Read, Reflect and Act.
If one grain of Vaccine Virus, taken from the
cow’h udder aud kept dry for years, then mois
tened, and the keenest point of a lancet dipped
in it and drawn gently on the arm, so as not to
draw tho blood, will bo impregnate and change
the entire system as to prevent tho party so vac
cinated from taking the most loathsome of din
■ •ascs (small pox) for an entire life; again, if the
Celebrated Eucalyptus tree will change an unin
habitable malarial district into a healthy, salib
brious dime, by simply absorbing from the at
mosphere the poison malaria, why will not the
proper remedy, properly applied, neutralize and
destroy tho poison, known as malaria, mud thuß
liable parties to inhabit malarial districts with
Impunity?
We claim that there is such a remedy, and that
wo have prepared it. aud applied it, and proved
it iu our Anti-malarial or Euchymial Belt—and
that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit
the worst malarial districts without the fear of
naviug any diseases urging from malaria; such as
Chills aud Fever, Billious or Intermittent Fever,
Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Enlarged Liver and
Spleen, Indigestion, Constipation and Hem
orrhoids, aud that it will cure all the above dis
eases, except the worst cases of Billious and Yel
low Fever.
This is called nu Anti-malarial or Euchymial
Belt, as it corrects the humors of the -ody and
produces a healthy action, invigorating the sys
tem, aud thus enabling it to per orni its various
luties without fearing the effects of malaria in
the least.
It has been tried iu thousands of cases without
a fuiluro.
They can be obtained from the proprietors in
any quantity ut the Powell Building, junction of
Brood ami Peachtree streets, Atlanta, Ga.
Price for a single Belt $3, or $5 with a guaran
tee that it will cute or the money refunded.

Messrs. Lovk k Willson: Gentlemen—ln April
lust 1 was taken sick with regular Fever aud
Ague, having it every alternate day. After it had
run on me for two weeks, I was induced to try
one of your Anti-malarial belts; so I discarded all
medicine, aud simply wore one of your Belts, aH
directed, and my Ague became lighter each suc
cessive time thereafter for tome three or four
times, when it left mo entirely, with a good appe
tite and clear Hkiu; and in future, il I should ever .
have a Chill or Ague, I would want one of your Pads,
aud no physic. Wishing everybody that may be
so unfortuuato as to have Chills uud Fever may
bo fortunate enough to get one of your Belts,
I am, respectfully, etc.,

Uu the first day of December last I was taken
with Chills and Fever iu ThomasrUle, .Southwes

eminent physicians who were able to stop it only
for a few days at a time. It made such inroads
on my constitution that my physician pronoun
ced me to be iu the first stages of consumption,
wh eu I accidentally met up with Drs. Love k Will
son’s Anti-malarial Belt, which has entirely cured
me. I have had but one chill since, and that was
tho first day after putting it ou. lam now in as
good health as 1 ever was iu my lile, and think
this Belt a God-aend to tho afflicted.
