The Drouth In indiana.

We have received enough news from different
parts of the State 10 get idea of the extent and
character of the drouth which threatens to blast
all the high hopes of the year. In the east, south
east, centre and northeast, the want Of rain has
been more severely felt than in other parts Of the
State. Rains have fallen, it is true, in scattered
or small showers, but the general condition Of the
territory thus defined is that Of serious suffering
from drought. In the north, generally, and along
the Wabash river and in the south, the drouth has
in some degree broken up.
It did prevail to an almost alarming degree, but
last Mondays raio, which seems to have extended
pretty much over the whole Wabash Valley, except
the extreme eastern end, has washed it away for
the time and the rain Of Saturday week did as
much for the country along the Chic as far as EV-
ausville. The roads were very heavy with mud in
Posey and Pike counties on Saturday, till within q
short distance of Petersburg where SIS in this city,
no rain has fallen since the I'd.
Potatoes have probably suffered more than corn,
but corn must be pretty hardly handled when 1t be
gins tasseling at three feet in height it is doing
| in many places We believe that if the whole State
were now visited By abundant rains, both corn and
potatoes are damaged too much to yield more than
an average crop, and if general and heavy rains
| do not fall within another week the yield
| will be below an aVsrsge.-IRdiaHGPoEs Journal,

MES AMI ARMS FOR MExfCo.-We learn that the
Tennessee brought up on her last trip, from Gen
GaTza Of the State Of Tamaulips, request for, or
invtstion to, 5000 Americans, to pursue the civil
war il Mexico. At the time of writing, Gen Cara
was at Vera Cruz but We do not understand he acts
from the auh horiiy of the Constitutional Govern
mtn there located, though doubtless with its aequi-
escence. The expedition is to be fitted out at Tam
pieo where Gen. Degollado Dow IL, and TO organize
solely under the State authority. In other words,
Gen. Cara and the State of Tlmsulipas propose to
do something their own account towards restor-
ing the prestige of Constitutional arms and for this
purpose they divsst themselves of well known ma
tiOna prejudice, aud call upon 'bravest for
sistance.-N o. PicsVuHe JuIy 20,

Cure,
DIP rnr SPEEDY cunE or


Intermittent Fever. or Fever and Ague, Re-
mittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb Ague,
Periodical Headache, or Billions Head
ache, and Bilious Fevers, indeed for the
whole class Of diseases originating in bil-
iary derangeineht, caused by the Malaria
of miasmatic Countries.
No one remedy is louder called for BY the ne
cessities of the American people than a sure and
safe cure for Fever and Ague Such we are
now enabled TO offer, with perfect certainty
that it viii eradicate Tie disease. and with
surance, founded proof that harm can
arise from IFS use IN any quantity.
That which protects from or prevents this dis
order must be of immense service in the commu-
mites where 1t prevails. Prevention is better than
cure, for the patient escapes the risk which he
must run in violent attacks of this baleful dis
temper. This g Cure" cxpels the miasnatie
poison Of FEVER AND A6UE from the system and
prevents the development of the disease, if taken
on the first approach of its premonitory symptoms.
1t 9 not only the best remedy ever yet discovered
for this class of complaints but also the cheapest
The large quantity we supply for dollar brings it
within the reach of every body and in bilious
districts, where FEVER AND AGUR prevails, every
body should have it and use freely both for cure
and protection. 1t is hoped this price will place it
within the reach of all the poor rs well as the
rich. A great superiority of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
OF Internittents Is, that 1t contains fnine
or mineral, consequently II produces quinisn
other injurious effects whatever upon the constit-
tion. Those cured by it are left as healthy as if
they had nsver had the disease.
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence of
the miasmatic poison A great variety of disorders
arise from its irritation among which are Neural
gia, Rheumatism, Cont, Headache, Blindness,
Toothachc Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, PalpitatiOn,
Painful Affection Of the Spleen, MYSTERIES Pain in
the Bowels Collie Paralysis, and Derangement of
the Stomach, all of which, when originating in
this cause, put the intermittent type, become
periodical. This " CURE expels the poison from
the blood, and consequently cures them all alike.
1t is an invaluable protection 10 immigrants and
persons travelling temporarily residing in the
malarious districts. If taken occasionally or daily
while exposed to the infection, that will be excre-
ted from the system, and cannot accumulate in
sufficient quantity to Tipen into disease. Hence it
is more valuable for protection than cure and
few Will ever suffer from Interrnittents, if they
avail themselves of the protection this remedy
affords.
