Ayers Ague Cure,

which neutralizes this malarious poison IN the
blood and stimulates the liver to expel it from the
BODY As il should so it does cure this affecting
disorder with perfect certainty And it does more,
or rather does what is of service to those sub
iect to this Infection If taken in season 1t expeis
It from the system is absorbed, and thus keeps
those who use it free from its attacks; keeps the
system in health although exposed to the disease.
Consequently it not only cures, but protects from,
the great variety Of affections which are induced
by this malignant influence, such Remittent
Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked. Ague,
Periodical Headache or Bilious Headache, Bilious
Fevers, Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Blindness,
Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpita-
TONS Painful Affections of the Spleen, Mysteries,
Collie. PARALYSIS, and Painful Affections of the
Stomach and Bowels, all of which, when arising
from this cause, will be found to assume more or
less the intermittent type. This AGUE CSRE
removes the cause of these arrangements and cures
the disease.
This it accomplishes by stimulating the excre-
tories to expel the virus from the system; and
these organs by degrees become habited to do this
their office of their own accord. Hence arises what
we term acclinaatation. Time may accomplish the
same end, but often life is not long enough, or is
sacrificed in the attempt while this AGUE CURE
does it at once, and with safety. We have great
reason to believe this is surer as well as safer
remedy for the whole class of diseases which are
caused by the miasmatic infection, than any other
which has been discovered and it has still another
important advantage to the public, which is, that
it is cheap as well good.

The New Orleans Bulletin remarks
concerning the Masonic Fraternity of
the United States:
".Iere Is u oody of men, composed
of all classes and professions, entertain
inc every kind of opinion on religion
and politics, and existing in every State
in the union, who come together and
exhibit among t e nselves the utmost
harmony OF fee ing and action. No
word OF opprobium escapes from the
lips of any one to insult or wound the
feelings of another. No fierce anethe
ma of sections IS heard. No extrava-
gance is INDUCED in. Everything is
quiet, gentlemanly, respectful, dignifed.
The bitterest political enemies meet
face to face, and you shall never know
by their actions or words that they do
not belong to the same party. Reli-
gionists the most opposite embrace each
other in the arms of an excited charity.
Fanaticism finds no entrance into the
society of the brotherhood. Not q
wave of discord disturbs the waters OF
the inner temple, no plunge into the
abyss of atheism, rant, lawlessness that
shocks the moral sense of mankind.
No revolutionary hydra comes up from
beneath to break up the foundations OF
order and send the tornado over the
fair face of society"
It then asks why it is the Christian
Churches do not profit by the example
afforded them by this philanthropit
fraternity. Quoth the BulIetine
"But what is the secret OF their una
nimity, of their harmony, of thei
brotherly love, of the conservative
front, which without a tremor, the.
maintain amid the general commotion
hatred and fanaticism existing aroun
them. 1t is found, it seems to strik
us in one word-tolerdtion.

I've three daughters all with beaux,

Who at me turns up his nosei
Thsugh Squaretoes and Buffer,
Yet I've sunshine in my heart,
Still, can play ct bluff and marbles
Can appreciate a tart,
can love nv neighbor Nelly,
Just as though we're boy,
And could hand her cakes and apples
From my depths of corduroy.
She is tall and growing taller;
She is vigorous of limb;
You should see her play at cricket
With her little brother Jim!
She has eyes as blue as damsons;
She has pounds of auburn curls,
She regrets the game of Camp-frog
is prohibited by girls. s
/ adore my neighbor Nelly Z
invite her in to tee,
And let her nurse the baby,
Her delightful ways to see,
Such darling land of woman
Yet remote from any teens
have learnt from neighbor Nelly,
What the girls Doll instinct means.
o, to see her with the baby,
(He adores her more than L.,
How she choruses his Growing,
Bow she bushes every cryl
How she loves to pat his dimples,
With her light forefnger deep;
How she boasts as one in triumph,
When she gets him off to sleepl
We must pa my neighbor Nelly,
For the summers quickly fee,
And thy middle-aged admirer
Must soon supplanted be.
Yet as jealous as mother,
A suspicious, canker'd churl-

To be worthy such pearl.

At the present time there is quite large num-
Der of persons who will not be trusted at all, and
there is much larger portion of the community
who cannot get credit any where, but are obliged
to pay cash at credit prices. These two classes
form, perhaps, more than one-half of our popula-
ton and there is no good reason why poor NIL
should pay more than rich one; anu no sense at
all in charging CASH CUSTOMERS for bad debts
incurred under the present mode of merchandising
Ii the people will only bestow one thought upon
the subject they will at once see that-payng Gus
toners assume all the bad debts or, in other words,
they take all the risks of the credit system The
present time is very dscouragng for making debts;
the obligations of the people are now very large,
larger BY far than the crops this season will dis
charge. Property of all kinds is continually run
ming down. and how would, it be with US in the
event of total or partial failure of the crops
next season? Is there so blind that ne cannot
see that in such an event it would take large
amount of property to pay avery small debt Who
them is so bold as to increase their liabilities un
der this state of things?

it is entirely unnecessary for us to recount the
evidence of its virtues, wherever it has been EN-

assure the people its quality is kept up to the best
it ever has been, and that it may be relied on to
do for their relief all it has ever been found to do
