GEORGIA ELECTION.

BY slip from the office Of the Mil
ledgovile Federal Union we have re
tmns, which, together with those in the
Savannah papers, give us the result in
seventy countless. in which McDonaId's
majority over Dawson is 2102. This is
q gam of near 2O00over the vote by
which Mcdonald was elected in 1870
The remaining twenry-three counties
then gave him a majority Of l407. II the
remaining counties vote us they did then,
his majority will be about 300; if he
gains in them as he has ia the rest Of the
State, his majority will be over 4OOO.-
This will be a gain of more than $4,000
votes since the Presidential election--a
change so great that nothing but tho mon,
strous folly and roguery Of the Wing par
ty could have effected it in so ewmonlhs.
The Federal Union says the Democrat
ic majority in the Legislature will be
about 40.
The Savannah Republican complains
that The Wings shave not turned ou!" at
thi, election, No matter; they have been
turned out, which is better for the State.

Resurrection Or Persian Pills, upon those about to
become mothers, we were induced to make trial of
them. My wife was at that time the mother of five
cruciating pains during and after her confinement
Of each. She had tried every means and taken
much medicine, but found little no relief. She
commenced taking the Persian Pills about three
months before her confinement Cher health being ve-
fy poor about this length of time previously and in
short time she enabled by their use to attend to
the cares of a mother to her family until her con-
finement. At the time she commenced taking the
Persian Pills, and for several weeks pi evious, she
was afflicted with dty hard cough, and frequent
severe cramps, which the use of the Pills entirely
removed before using half box. 1t is with the
greatest confidence that advise all those about to
become mothers to make use of the Persian Pills.
All those that have taken them in our neighbor-

The Resurrection, or Persia, Pills.

The name of these pills originated from the cir
cumstance of the medicine being found only in the
cemetares of Persia. This vegetable production
being of peculiar kind, led to experiments as to
ita medicinal qualities and virtues. in half CEN
tury it became an established medicine for the dis
eases of that country. The extract of this sngu-
reproduction was introduced into some parts of Eu-
rope in the year 1888, and used by many celebrated
Physicians in curing certain diseases, where all 9TH
er medicine has been used in vain. Early in the
year 1899, the extract was combined with certain
vegetable medicine imported from Dura Baca, in
the East Indies, and formed into Pills. The admir-
able effect of this compound upon the human sys-
tenn. led physicians and families into its general
use. Their long established character their univer
sal and healing virtues, the detergent and cleansing
qualities of their specific action upon the glanduar
part of the system, are such as will sustain their re-
putation and general use in the American Repub-
lie.
