L
AT the solicitation of many Of
our friends, and a desire on our
part to make our papera useful me.
ldium of communication to the pub
lie generally, we have determined
to ENLAGE AND OTHERWISE IMPROVE
THE APPEARANCE OF THE ssYAZOO
CITY WHIG,n SO as to make it
more worthy Of a general circula-
ltion among the people Of the inter-
ior.-Yazoo City is the trading and
shipping point of a large, rich, and
populous section of country, and the
facilities afforded at this point for
collecting the latestevents that trans
pire in the political and commercial
world, hold out inducements, for
the public to sustain a journal at
this place devoted to the advance
Iment of its interests.
We have labored faithfully;
Through evil report, and through
good report for the last ten years
in publishing a paper in Yazoo
City; and, during that whole period,
what patronage we have received,
was voluntarily and generously
rendered, without an effort on our
part to obtain it. Our interests are
identified with those of Yazoo City
here we have reared a family
land, here we expect to end the bal
ance of our days.
To effect the improvements
contemplated in the WHIG, we shall
necessarily be compelled TO incur
considerable extra expense ]; and,
to enable us to do this, we have
issued this PROSPECTUS, with the
view to add additional subscribers
: to our list.
i We have determined to make
+ the WING worthy of liberal and
generous support and, we now
;. callnpon our friends to use lheirin-
y fuence and aid to accomplish this
= object. Two or three hundred adj
m ditional subscribers, and a more Ex-
TENDED patronage from our adver-
Using friendswil be all-sufficient.
" Our arrangements are such, thai
2. we can confidently assure our pat
rOns that they shall not be disap.
bv pointed in their expectations,-the
is WHIG shall not be inferior to any
ne ne of its contemporaries, in the QUAIL
VI try and QUANTITY of reading mat
S se ter it contains, or in the BEAUTY
9 and ACCURACY of It's MECHANICAL
g. EXECUTION. We have engaged
the services of several gentlemen,
eminently qualified, to be regular
contributors to its coIumns-wc
ID have, also, engaged the services o
o e several commercial gentlemen, o

We We ACCURATE reports of the markets

will be of interest to the up-countrl

OF all the remedies ever discovered for
The safe, certain and effectual cure Of the
Ague and Fever. or Chills and Fever, none
have more merited and received The appro>
baton Of the Public than these Pills, Up
wards Of Eighty Thousand Boxes have. been
cold, in only Six States, within the last
twelve months, and over 10000 Boxes oil
these have been sold in the State Of Alabama
alone, The Proprietor has never known d
single instant wheIe these Pills have failed
TO cure the ChiIls and Fever. where they
have been used strictly according to the di.
rections accompanying them. One box o.
:hese Pills is generally sufficient to cure two
common cases Of ehills and Fever.

WORM [LIIIz8IIN8S 81


IN over $4,000 cases they have proved an infal-
lible remedy for the destruction OF those reptiles
which are the means Of sweeping off Hundreds
and Thousands Of the most blooming children
and youth, severing :he chords Of affection, and
forever blasting the fondest hopes Of the parent.
So great has their efficacy invariably proven, that
they may well be called the only certain worm
destroying medicine in use, and the greatest dis
covery ever made for expelling the various kinds
Of worms that so frequently and distressingly
annoy both children and adults. They are a ceI-
tain remedy, and pleasant TO the taste, that chill
dren cry for them, and eat them as readily as a
common peppermint LOzenge.
To parents, say do not be without these
Lozenges at any time; attend to these sugges-
tons as you value the lives of your children.
