For Enlarging and Extending the
Circulation
OF THE
VAZOO CITY WHTG.

AT the solicitation of many of
our friends, and a desire on our
part to make our papera useful me-
dunn of communication to the pub
lie generally, we have determined
to ENLAGE AND OTHERWISE IMPROVE
THE APPEARANCE OF THE "YAZOO
CITY WHIG," so as to make it
moro worthy of general circula-
ton among the people OF the inter-
ior.-Yazoo City is the trading and
shipping point of large, rich, and
populous section of country, and the
facilities afforded at this point for
collecting the latestevents that trans
lpire in the political and commercial
world, hold out inducements, for
the public to sustain journal at
this place devoted to the advance
ment of its interests.
We have Iabored faithfully,
through evil report, and through
good report for the last ten years
IN publishing a paper IN faZoo
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
and, here we expect to end the bal
ance of our days.
To effect the Improvements
contemplated in the Vine, 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.
We have determined to make
the VINO worthy of a liberal and
generous support and, we now
call upon our friends to use theirin-
fuence and aid to accomplish this
object. Two or three hundred adj
ditional subscribers, and more EX-
TENDED patronage from our adver-
Using friends will be all-sufficient.
Our arrangements are such, that
we can confidently assure our pat
rons that they shall not be disap-
pointed in their expectations,-the
WHIG shall not be inferior to any
Of its contemporaries, in the QUAIL
i ITY and QUANTITY of reading mat
ter it contains, or in the BEAUTY
: and ACCURACY of its MECHANICAL
EXECUTION. Every incident that
transpires which can impart inter-
est, shall have heariug through
the columnsof the Vino. In short.
we intend to make the WHIG a val
liable ~ Gospaper' to all classes Of
readers. JAS. A. STEVENS.

Celebrated Ague and
Fever Pills
PREPARED AND SOLD By
w. w. WOOD.

OF Benton, Yaxoo county, .MisslssiPpt,
nR WOODhas used these pills for the last
~ ten years in his practice, both in Ken
lucky and Miss Unsolicited such astonishing
cures with them, that he is induced to offer
them to the public, as certain and efectuat
remedy for intermittent or Ague and Fever.
In casesa where he has used these pills, he
has never failed to cure the patient in twen-
ty-four hours, and, in many instances. he
has ACCOMPLISHED the most wonderful cures
in the short space of tweves hours; in proof
of which, he could, if necessary. procure
certificates from every one of those to whom
he has administered this valuable medicine,
but he deem them both superfueus and pro-
fitless. A long catalogue of letters, attest
ing their efficacy, would seem to parlake
too much of the clap>trap means resorted to
in order to bolster up the poisonous nostrums
that are daily sent forth to the world pro-
Tossing 10 cure as many cases as there are
subjects to operate upon. These pills need
only to be tested to establish their charac err
They possess such singular and admirable
qualities, that no unpleasant feelings are
produced by them upon the patient. They
never nauseate or sicken the stomach, or
oparate on the bowels as "a purgative; the
patient, without experiencing any uneast-
ness whatever from them, finds himself sud.
denly cured.

by Quinine md other things but after few days or
weeks they would return again bad or worse than

every third day, and these were followed by fever

so completely etopped the chills, that have never
had return of them up to this time, (nearly two
years. and near year OF this time was passed III
the same place where first caught the disease.
That my case is not one cured by chance, is pro
ven from the fact that four pills out of the box
cured captain Ruben Banks, so efectually that he
has never had the disease since, whereas before he
often suffered from it. Two other persons were also
cured by the contents Of the same box, and they
neither of them have had return of it, although
