There are hundreds of remedies sold at every
Drug Store, purporting to cure all diseases name
able, each advertised as the very best ever known,
till we had lost all faith in them all, but there is
one exception.
We speak of DR.. Sanford's Invigorator, which
came to US recommended as a cure for Liver Com
pialnts' and all diseases arising from a diseased
Liver. The testimonials of so many of our Ply
sicians in its favor, induced US to try it, and now
conviction is certain that it is one of the greatest
blessings ever given to Dyspeptics, for it made a
complete cure before the first bottle was taken,
and now we can eat anything eatable without
trouble while before, nothing but the lightest food
would digest, and often that gave pain. Now
what we want to say to all our readers is, if Liver
Complaint or Dyspepsia trouble you, do not fail
to try this, the greatest remedy in the world

Superior Brogans.

On a recent visit to Townsville, we step
ped into the Mandatory owned by Mr..
Charles NJ. Lines, where, besides other mech.
anical work, the manufacture of heavy Bro
gans is carried on quite briskly. These shoes
are made Of the best material,-the uppers
being of heavy southern tanned leather, and
the soles of the best northern red sole leath-
er, three soles thick. We learn that several
large shareholders who have seen them, have
expressed a determination to purchase no
more Northern shoes for their negroes, pro-
vided they can be supplied by Mr.. Lines,
with his superior article. We are of the
opinion that one pair of these shoes will
wear as long as three NortherH pair and
that the purchaser will, in the end, save at
least ono hundred per cent. in procuring
them, instead Of Northern work. We learn
that Mr.. Lines is prepared to fill the orders
of Merchants by the box at such prices as
will allow n fair profit. And we would ad-
wise the merchants of the surrounding coun-
try to send in their orders at once, that they
may be filed by the commencement of the
fall trade. Townsville is situated immedi-
ately on the North Carolina Rail Road, con
venient of access to a large portion of the
State and if merchants, especially those
along the line of this Road, would forthwith
send orders for a supply of these superior
shoes, it would give great encouragement to
q very worthy and enterprising citizen, who
is doing all he can to add to the prosperity
and wealth of the South.-GreensbOro' Pdt,-i
