INSulCIucSs
4 AR. ]. n. SMITH, Winsboro', N. c., says
~ Some of your family Medicines have reach
ed this part OF the country. They seem TO do
much good, and are eagerly sought after by all
who are acquainted with their medical virtues. |
should be glad to have an agency for the sale of
them, as | hatter myself, that my reputation as

in their sale. The Expectorant appears TO be in
the greatest demand here.
Mr.. j. Wallace, Milford, Pa, says-4The first
months very little medicine was sold, excepting
your Worm Medicine, which was soon disposed Of.
II is but short time since the Expectorant was
much called for. | had used one bottle in my
family, and found it an excellent medicine for
colds, This spring there have been an unusual
number Of persons complaining of heavy colds,
and the most Of them have found relief by your
Expectorant.
Mr.. Thomas NJ Turner, Savannah, Georgia,
says-We have been very successful in selling
your Alternative, and we have but few bottles
left; we wish you to send us gross by the first
vessel.
Messrs. Whitney s Latin, Mt. Morris, N. ",
say-We are out of your Vermifuge and Hair
Dye, and have daily calls for the Vennifuge,
which stands very high in this section. The
sales of all your medicines have been, and con-
tinue to increase.

Vermifuge and Pills sell very readily here--I

prudent, and already bought bottle, the question
is settled--you have recovered your hea ,th.
Jayne's Carminative Balsam, for bowel ard
summer complaint, never fails. II is the only
medicine that will cure. Thousands Of persons,
have given their testimony in its favor No fam
lily should ever be without it.
TVhy ,cear a pig?-A majority of the wigs
worn are wholly unnecessary. The use Oh
Jayne's Hair Tonic will always prevent the mar
from falling off, and Its continued use VIII IN most
cases re-clothe the head with beautiful crop OF
new hair.
Fsrer and .qgne-Cure warranted-Jayne's
Ague Pills are warranted to cure the worst forms
of Fever and Ague The money will be refund
ed in all cases If they fail to cure-but they never
do fail.
A strong evidence that DIR. Jayne's Expector-
ant IS superior TO all other remedies for Coughs,
Consumption, Bronchitis, Asthma, and other Pal
monarv affections, is, that the same persons who
commenced the use of IN their families ten years
ago, still prefer it to all other remedies of the
kind; and where any have been induced to Try
other preparations, they have almost invariably
been disappointed in receiving the benefit when
was reasonably anticipated from the high praises
bestowed by the proprietors, and have returned 70
the use of Jayne's Expect0rant, as remedy tha'
never has failed to relieve them, and which prob
ably never had Its equal in arrestmg pulmonary
diseases.

T'EKE TARIFF.

DEAR S1R--Agreeably to your request,
made to me when you were in this city Il
few days since, proceed to give you some
facts illustrative of the operation Of the tar
if of 1916. You are aware that but very
partial and imperfect returns have been re-
ccived ofthe trade and commerce of the I'm
ion, since the last report of the Register of
the Treasury has been published, and since
the close of the last commercial ear, which
is considered by merchants to end the last
day Of August Of each year. But such re-
turns as have been received afford the most
gratifying results.
will endeavor to give you a view Of the
commercial operations of the last year, par
ticulurly with reference to their connection
with the agricultural interests Of the coun-
try: although must premise, in the outset,
that neither my time nor the general re-
turns which | have been so fortunate as to
obtain, will permit me to go much into de-
tail.
will first give you, in contrast, the re-
turns OF the export trade for the Port Of n.
York, (tliose of the whole Union for ls47
not having been received) for the first eight
months of the years 1915, l546, ind ls47;
