II. G. FARRELLS ARABIAN LINIMENT

Triumphant 0ppf DtScdsc
This truly great medicine still goes on, con-
quering disease, and snatching many poor
powerlcss victim from the grave. BY its pow
erfnly stimulating, penetrating and anodyne
qualities, it restores the use of limbs which
have been palsed for years; and by its singu-
lar power of reproducing the synovial fluid
or joint water, ii cures all diseases of the joints
with surprising rapdity. For rheumatism,
and affections of the spine and spleen, it has
proved itself specific; and for affections Of
the lungs, liver and kidneys, it is most valu-
able and powerful auxiliary; also, for all dis
eases of the glands, scrofula, gOitrc or swelled
neck, &c, DC. And indeed for almost any
disease where an external application is re-
quired, this medicine stands unparalleled
Sprains, bruises, cramps wounds, chilblains
burns, &C., are speedily cured by it.
From The Hon. Peter Wenard, one of the oldest
settlers ia Illinois.
It gives me pleasure to add my testimony
to the virtues of your great medicine. One
of my blooded horses had n swelling over the
cap of the knee. about the size of hens egg.
Some said it was n strain, and some that it
was the joint water from the knee, and could
not be cured. | tried oil cedar on it, and all
the lnimients and ointmcnts and they did no
more good than water. then, by persuasion
of my friends, tried III. G.. Parrelrs Arabian
Liniment, and was happy to find it take ef-
feet after few days, and it finally cured the

Incoming Cotton Crop.

We extract The following from TALcoTT ana
Brothers. Circular, forwarded to Liverpool on the
2s,h by the Baltic:
With dates from New Orleans Of gath instant
by telegraph, have yet no accounts OF killing
frost. Our correspondents al New Orleans write
under date OF l7th inst. as follows:
'tCotlon crop accounts are better this week the
fine weather improves the prospects and checks
the complaints. We have beautiful weather, with
no indications yet of early frost The popular
estimate of the crop here is 100000 bales,
which will not be large enough unless we have an
early frost Our present impression about the
crop is, that If frost keeps off eight or ten days
longer, we shall adopt your figures OF 3,lOO.O 0o
bales; and if it keeps off Two or three weeks
longer, we don't know how much higher we shall
set mark"
Our estimate of 300 900, which we believe
will be realized, was based we advised, son u
fuir arefaee season, aoith KILLING fr0sts the last
aceek IN Oct0ber.'' Ii frost holds off until the
18th or 18Th November, We shall feel ourselves
justified raising your figures; but at all events,
are satisfied that the short crop estimates recently
INDUCED in at the South, ranging from 100000
to 2, 93O, 900 bales, must soon be abandoned.

The Activity of the French Emperor

The Emperor flies about The Empire with great
rapdy. One day he appears in Bordeaux, the
next finds him here i'll Paris. One week since
saw him at the theatre applaudiag Madame RAJ
chel, in three days after he man9uvred hundred
thousand men at Bou"gne, and to-nigh he has
returned to Paris. That he has at heart the best
interests of France, can hardly be doubted at
the time he is not very popular in Paris, so
far as | can Judge. There those who have
not forgotten the coup d'elat and Napoleon's
peated violations of his OATH there those " no
do not fancy the censorship Of the press, and " no

Napoleon fears their influence with the army, and
for that reason keeps them here at home.
Attempts upon tho Emperor's life more re.

Ces to blow him up with internal machines have
been detected within month, and scoundrel
took shot at HIM with pistol, without effect.
