10000 cnses Of General Debility and want
of Nervous Energy

Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla invigorates the
whole system permanently. To those who have
lost their muscular energy by the effects Of medi
cine or indiscreton committed in youth, or the
excessive indulgence of the passions and brought
ou general physical prostration Of the nervous
system, lasstude want of ambition, lainting SEN
satious premature decay and decline, Fastening
towards that fatal disease, Consumption, can be
entirely restored by this pleasant remedy. This
Sarsaparia is far superior to any InvigOr0ting
Cordial, as it renews and invigorates the system,
gives activity to the limbs and strength to the
muscular system, in most extraordinary degree.

The great beauty and superiority ofthis Sarsa-
parilla over all other medicines is, that while it
eradicaes the disease, it invgorates the body. 1t
ID one of the very best SPRING AND SUMMER
MEDICINES ever known; it not only purfes the
whole system and strengthens the person, but 1t
creates ne,c, pure and rich blood: power pos
sessed by no other medicine. And in this lies
the grand secret of its wonderful success. Ithas
performed within the last five years, more than
100 900 cures of severe cases of disease; at least
$4,000 were considered incurable. 1t has saved
the lives of more than 5000 children during the
two pnst seasons.

The steamer Yacht, Capt Thompson came in
last evening from Galveston. She left on the 18th
and has had very boisterous passage. She got
out Of fuel when within about 80 miles of the S.
W. Pass and had to tear away her woodwork to
enable her to get inside the bar, where she was
supplied. We are indebted to the officers of the
boat for late Galveston papers, from which we ex-
tract the following items:
The Matagarda Tribune Of the 10th gives q
gloomy account Of the cotton crop in that region.
Ii states that on the plantations on the Caney re-
gion the worm has destroyed much Of the growing
crop Ii saws" So rapid has been the destruction
on some of the plantations, that in the course Of
some three or four days from the appearance of the
worm, not vestige of verdure has escaped the
havoc"
The San Augustine (Texas) Union of Sept. 2d
says that the cotton crops in that and the adjoining
counties are seriously injured, many entirely de-
sToged by the worm and other causes. From MD

Of growing cotton, and to converse with several
