ogive the following card a conspicuous
insertion in our columns in order that none may fail
to read it* We can confidently recommend this
firm to the public as abundantly able to do all that
they profess, and more too. It is an old established
firm, well known throughout our land, having had
an agency in almost every town and village, along
the highways and in more obscure recesses. But
who has not known them intimately or heard of their
x.great exploits? Surely they need no commendation
morn us. Let them speak for themselves:
Death k Cos.
Wholesale and Retail Dealers in Spirits, Wine and
Malt Liquors.
iase this opportunity of informing their friends
that they continue the trade of making Drunkards,
Bankrupts, Brggars and Maniacs on the most rea
sonable terras, at the shortest notice.
The subscribers return their sincere thanks to nu
merous customers, and to all the tippling part ofthe
community, for the extensive patronage thef*how
receive; and they hope that the many proofs that
are now to be found of their success in the above
line of business, wiil secure to them the increased
-upport of ali drunkards and little drop drinkers, as
well as forever silence the advocates of total absti
nence societies, those bitter enemies of their lmg e -
tablished and popular trade.
Death & Cos. beg leave to assure the public, that
the articles in which they deal are the best and most
pleasant poisons in the world; and ihev will warrant
them certain death in every case where the individ
ual perseveres in the use of then).
Death & Cos. bring themselves under obligations to
-end more persons to the poor-house, the prison, the
gallows and the graveyard, than any other firm; and
they will also do it with the greatest possible dis
patch : to accomplish these desirable ends, it is only
necessary for the individual to taken glass occasion
ally, till he feels that quantity insufficient to gratify
craving appetite which it will soon create; and
when this rum, whisk} - , gin, brandy, wine, eider,
u!e, or porter appe.ite is formed, the person is then
prepared to brave temporal and eternal misery for
the sake of another glass. Tn short, Death & Cos.
will spare no pains or expense to bring the wives and
of their customers to misery, temporal and
eternal, and drive to delirium and death as any as
the public good may require. They are constantly
receiving new supplies of the poisonous liquids,
which they will sell by the glass, the bottle, the bar
rel or the hogshead.
For the accommodation of their numerous custom
ers and v the dispatch of their increasing business,
Death & ‘o. have appointed a sufficient “number of
active agents, who are stationed at convenient dis
tances, in splendid palaces, beer rhops and public
houses. These palaces, beer shops and public houses
may be known by the squalor, filth, obscenity, or
misery of the customers who congregate around
them, as well as by the odors of the poisons contin
ually polluting the air around.
Satisfactory references can be given to county jails,
houses of correction, lunaticasylums, hospitals, work
houses, insolvent debtors’ courts, the court of bank
ruptcy, or the wives and families of those whom
Death & Cos. have had the happiness to make drunk
nrds.
r N. B. Death & Cos. beg leave to caution all tip
plers and dram-drinkers, from giving any heed to
their wives, children or friends, or any advocates of
total abstinence societies, as these parties are enemies
to this soul and body-destroying business. Gentle
men, by calling on our agents may see specimens of
drunkards, and subjects for the charnel house, at all
hours, by dav and by night, Sundays not excepted.

•23F”l'he superiority of American inventive geni
us, not only over that of our English progenitors,
but indeed of all other nations, has become too tan
gible to be disputed. Tt was notorious at the World’s
Kair in London, that the Americans far out-stripped
all others in the useful inventions which they sup
plied. We heat the English in vessels, railroads,
telegraphs and manufactures by power. We are
beating them in the scientific arts of Chemistry and
Medicine, as we have long beat the rest of mankind.
Anew and practical proof of this assertion is shown
in the tact that the principle remedies of the allied
armies of the East are furnished from the laboratory
of our own countryman. Dr. J. C. Ayer, of Lowell,
* is tilling orders for immense quantities of his Cherry
Pectoral and Cathartic Pills, for both the land and
sea forces in Turkey. His medicines have been tri

them the most reliable which they could procure for
the exegencics in which they are to be employed.—

Buried Treasures.
••Eusebius” writes to the New York Observer, from
Rome, as follows :
“The Tiber is not only rich in historic associa
tions ; it is rich in treasure. An English company
has actually offered to turn the current of the stream
far above the city and around it, provided the Gov
ernment would give them what they might discover
in its present bed. This would he atlended with
vast expense, but it would pay. Treasurers of art
from age to age have found their way into the
Stream, which would bring in the market a perfect
remuneration. In the museum of St. John Lateran,
£ a magnificent column of stone is lying, which was
taken not long since from the Tiber, a portion of
which has been polished to display its beauty, and
no one can see it without wishing to have more of
the secrets of this river revealed. Statuary more
perfect and perhaps more beautiful than any of the
ancient works of art now seen in Rome lies embedded
in groups beneath the stream. Agostino Chigi, the
famous banker at the time of Leo X, once gave a
splendid entertainment to the Pope and his Cardinals
at which the dishes were all precious metals. The
price paid for three fish was 250 crowns. It is said
that the dishes were all thrown into the Tiber by or
der of the rich banker, in order that no less illustri
ous guest might ever use them. The sacred vessels
brought from Jerusalem by Titus, among them the
golden candlestick, are reported to have been lost
from the Milvian bridge, and if so, are still lying
there. The present government of Rome will suffer
nothing belonging to ancient art to pass from her
territory, nor is it able to carry on such an investi
gation upon its own account.”
Railroad Meeting in Early County.
The citizens of Early county met in convention on
the 8d ult., to consider the policy of aiding in the
construction of a Railroad from the Atlantic to the
Chattahoochee. Maj. Joc-i Crawford, one of the Com
missioners of the Main Trunk Railroad, called the at
tention of the meeting to the fact that the Brunswick
and Florida Company had refused to surrender its
chartered rights, and urged the people to take im
mediate and decisive action. Resolutions were adop
ted by the meeting pledging the counties of Early
and Calhoun to a subscription of three hundred thou
sand dollars to any company that will extend a Road
through Albany, Morgan and Blakely, to the Chat
tahoochee River.

Tribute of Respect.
At a regular meeting of the Cotton Hill Lodge of
Knights of Jericho, held on the 21st of June, the
following resolutions, reported by'a Committee of the
Lodge were unanimously adopted.
Whereas, Mrs. Adelia V., wife of Jesse G. Gilbert
and the sister of Mrs. Dennard,(a Missionary in Afri
ca) who died some two years since, was upon the Bth
of June, removed by death from our midst; and
whereas Mrs. Adelia V. Gilbert was a member of
Cotton Hill Lodge, Knights of Jericho. Therefore,
Resolved, That this Society do herewith tender
their sincerest sympathies to the relatives of the de
ceased in their sorrow, and express their ardent
wishes, that they may be enable to sustain this af
flicting dispensation of Divine Providence which has
fallen upon them.
Resolved, That this Lodge feels called upon to
mourn the loss of a true and devoted friend and sis
ter, and as an expression ofour deep grief at her loss
and of our high sense of her worth, the members of
this Lodge shall ‘ ear the badge of mourning lor 80
days.
Resolved, That copies of these resolutions be pre
sented to the relatives of the deceased, and also a
copy he forwarded to the Temperance Crusader for
publication. A. C. RICHMOND,
Chairman of Committee.
Worms! Worms!
A great many learned treaties have been written,
explaining the origin of, and classifying the worms
generated in the human system. Scarcely any topic
of medical science has elicited more acute observa
tion and profound research; and yet physicians are
very much divided in opinion on the subject. It
must be admitted, however, that, after all a mode of
expelling these worms, and purifying the body from
their presence, is of more value than the wisest dis
quisitions as to the origin. The expelling ag.nt has
at length been found—Dr. M’Lane’s Vermifuge, pre
pared by Fleming Bros, is the much sought after
specific, and has already superseded all other worm
medicines, its efficacy being universally acknowl
edged by medical practitioners.
will be careful to ask for Dr. M’-
Lane’s Celebrated Vermifuge, manufactured by
Fleming Bros, of Pittsburg, Pa. All other Vermi
fuge in comparison are worthless. Dr. M’Lane’s

can now be had at all the respectable drug stores.—

Messrs. P. Davis & Son—Gents.: Before l left
Margui, both Karens and Bunnans had found out
the value of your Pain Killer, and I could readily
have disposed of a large quantity of it among them.
It seems particularly efficacious in cholera morbus,
bowel complaints, and other diseases to which the
natives of Burmab, from their unwholesome style of
living, are peculiarly exposed. It is a valuable anti
dote to the poison of Centipedes, Scorgions, Hornets,
and the like. I have been twice stung by Scorpions,
and in both cases eased the most excruciating pain
entirely prevented the swelling by applying the Pain
Killer. On our voyage homeward from India, the
Captain of the ship was taken with vomiting and
purging and other symptoms of cholera. I gave him
a good dose of Pain Killer with the most immediate
and happy results. So ontiro and speedy was the
relief, that he assured me he would never again go
a voyage without your excellent medicine, if he could
possibly procure it Respectfully yours,

Holloway’s Ointment and Pills, an un
failing Remedy for Scrofulous Sores. The eldest
son of Anthony Barnet, aged 14, of Galveston, Tex
as, was an awful sufferer, with scrofulous sores on
his limbs, the parents took him to several doctors,
and did all in their power to alleviate him, but he
only became worse. A sister of Mr. Barnet, who
had been cured of a bad leg by Holloway’s Ointment
and Pills, took the child under her protection, sta
ting she would try what effect a few weeks residence
with her would do; no sooner had she got him at her
own house, than she tried Holloway’s Ointment and
Pills, they soon caused an improved appearance in
the child, and after using them about ten weeks, ev
ery symptom of his disorder had vanished like snow
before the sun—such is the power of these wonder
ful remedies’ They will also cure all disorders of
the skin.

more fully prepared to attend to chronic cases at a
distance, upon the same liberal terms that he has
done for several years, namely : any person who be

return, medicine and directions to suit their case, for
one month. Many persons have been treated and
cured upon this plan, with a great saving to the af
flicted ; some of them living from 50 to over 100
miles, numbers of whom we have never seen, while
we have had the consolation of meeting others after
their convalescence.
The undersigned has been closely engaged in the

PURIFY THE BLOOD.
Moffat’s Life Pills and Phoenix Bitters.
FREE FROM ALL MINERAL POISONS.
THE great popularity which MOFFAT'S LIFE PILLS and,
PHOENIX BITTERS have attained in consequence of the
extraordinary cures effected by their use, renders it unnecessary
for the proprietor to enter into a particular analysis of their Me
dicinal virtues or properties. Having been more than twenty
years before the public, and having the united testimony of more
than THREE MILLIONS of person* who have been restored to
the enjoyment of perfect health by them, it is believed that their
reputation as the best vegetable medicine now before the public,
admit* of no dispute. In almost every city and village in the Uni
ted States, there are many who are ready to testify to the till
cacy in removing diaease, and giving to tho whole system re
newed vigor and health
In cases or SCROFULA, ULCERS. SCURVY or ERUPTIONS of
the skin, the operation of the LIFE MEDICINES is truly astonish
ing, often removing in a few days, every vestige of these loath
some disesses, by their purifying effects on the blood. FEVER
and AGUE, DYSPEPSIA, DROPSY, PILES, and in short most all
diseases, soon yield to their ctA'ative properties. No family
should be without them, as by their time y use much suffering
and expense may be saved. Prepared WILLIAM MOFFAT, M. D.

THIS valuable Book is written by Dr. A. R. Kinkelin, of Phil
adelphia. Pa., who has enjoyed a most successful practice of
twenty-two years, during which time he has had laily and almost
hourly opportunities of witnessing the havoc and destruction in
flicted upon human strength, happiness, and life, by the perni
cious habits which are fostered by indolence, ignorance and sen
sability.
“Nature’s Guide” having, therefore, emanated from an experi
enced mind, may be supposed to abound in salutary warnings and
practical information, which are imparted in the language of pro
priety and delicacy, dictated by an earnest desire to enlighten
the public on a branch of knowledge, essential for the preservation
of both mental and bodily health. Every individual is interested
in preventing the spread of an evil which has produced more dis
astrous infirmities in Youth, more degradation in Manhood, and
more premature decay in all stages oflife, than auy other source
ofhuman misery, debility and death.
“I am a man, and deem nothing which relates to man foreign to
my feeling.
