/ TIJE PERSIAN FEVER CHARM

III
i THE PERSIAN FEVER CHARM.
For the prevention and cure of feUer and AgNP
and Bilious FererS. This wonderful remedy was
brought the knowledge of the present propretors
by friend who has been great traveller in Persia
and the Holy Land.
While going down the river Euphrates he expe-
rlenced &erere attack of Fever and Ague. On
discovering his condition, one of the BOatmen took
from his person an Amulet, saying, Wear this and
no Ferer aciH touch you.' Although ncredulous as
to it's virtues; he complied and experienced imme-
diate relief and has since always found it efec
tual protection from all maarous complaints.
On further investigation he found that the boat
man attributed to it miraculous powers, and said
that it could only be obtained from the Priests of the
Sun. Sometime afterwards, the gentleman in con-
versing with Priest obtained from him the secret
of its preparation, and ascertaned where the medi-
cinal herbs were found, of which it was compound
ed. The wonderful virtues of this article have
duced full belief IN the minds of the natives in
the miraculous healing powers of their Priests
Since his return to America, it has been tried with
the happiest effect by several Ladies and Gentle
men of high character. who have given it the most
unqualified praise. This remedy having been spe
cc in Persia for hundreds of years, for the preven
ton and cure of Fever and Ague and Bilious Fevers
lis now offered to the American people.

John Letcher, Governor of Virginia, who is so

whose nomination for the Governorship of Vir-

for Douglas and johnson, in opposition to the
true and tried Democracy of the State to whose
self sacrifice he owes his undeserved position

All who have been readers of the immaculate

Letcher last year when he canvassing
Virginia for Governor, and what marvellous

Now, for no other sin than supporting Douglas
the regular and the only regular nominee Of his

eyes of the Jouraal so mean - that hair will not

Douglas Rotten-Egged

The Atlanta (Ga.t Coafederaey, OF
last Saturday, says the Louisville jour
nal, learns from a highly respectable
gentleman who arrived there that even
ming direct from Montgomery, that
Hon. Stephen A. Douglas, on his arriy-
al in Montgomery, was met with a
shower OF rotten eggs, That paper
says: "Think Of II, patriots Of the
South "A distinguished American cit
izen, a law abiding man, a patriot, a
statesman, . man holdings high posi-
ton in the council Of the nation, and
one who is the candidate of a great
party for the highest Office III the gift

est conceivable indignity. And in what
place was it Douglas received such
treatment ? 'At.Montgomery, the home
of VIM. L. Yancey, the gentlemen who
has been mainly instrumental in bring
ing this government to the very verge
of destruction"
This is the same Douglas who once
thought he was running for President
Of these United States, and who said
that u future President, Abraham
Lincoln, dare not, with the principles
he held, visit the graves Of his ances.

Visiting the Field Of Battle,

Having conquered the enemy it will
b admitted we presume that we have
me right to revisit the field of battle
upon which VIC have won another glori-
oaS victory, and which again lies cov-
cred with the dead and wounded of the
Democracy. IN doing so we find with
oa. the least effort ut search on our
part, some who were so insensible of
the grcattissues which were at stake,
that they fell into the rear ranks of the
enemy thus escaping with but very
slight 2unis. These certainly deserve
-ynpathv, not for the bruises which
they received. but for the little com
mon sense Of which they are possessed,
MT knowing enough to ache when they
are in pain. These are they who are
Dimecrats because their fathers were
Dimecrats, and who suppose they are
still voting for jackson. We say they
are found in the rear ranks of the De
mocracv, Notwithstanding their occu-
p.ying this position they constitute the
great bulk of the enemy, and are m
times rightly dubbed .'yoting cattle"
Others may be found having great
gashes cut all about their heads in a
NJ st horrible manner, some Of whom
give signs Of life and returning health,
but q large majority are evidently as
dead rs if the hangman's sentence Of
dead. dead, dead, had been put into ex-
ec'ition. These are they who ar Dem
ocrats because they have always been
Democrats, and who think the princi-
pies OF the party have not changed be-
cause they still retain tie same name.
They are the "ilower ofthe army" and
ready at all times to keep step to the
music of Democracy.
Still Others may be found who have
not only ali the gashes and bruises
about the head OF the last. but have
been barhel through the heart by Re
publican spears, and yet strange to tell
they die not.
Their sunken eyes, fallen lips and
death like appearance conyinccs Us
they arc suffering the most cxcretiatinr
agony in their efforts to survive Tie
battle. To us they seem "of all men
most miserable" They are extrmcly
sensitive. liza single word ofsympathy
be spoken in their behalf by their cap
tors, they become perfectly furious, fly
into a violent fit Of rage, and hurl back
the most bitter anathemas. These are
the officers Of the army. They have
been Democrats irrespective Of primer
pies, because it paid.
This time howeyerthey could not de-
sufficient number into their ranks
g. win the battle. Their false promises.
suhteltirs and lies have been exposed:
hence their defeat, and consequent sore
heads, aching hearts and s~cnsitiv nerves.
We hope however, the inglorious defeat
which'.thcy have sustained will yet prove
t. them a useful lesson, so that they
may be politically saved in the future.
Oh! it is glorious to review the fell
&C battle.
