HwvEEE PAST WRyN~TkeR .4-N.ER SPETNG
II SO far, have been very wet ones, causing many
of rivers TO overflow their banks, back
ing up the water in the creeks and bayous, aud
flooding to considerable extent the bottom
lands; when the rivers recede, which may be
pected soon, then the large surface of deeaying veg
etibe matter exposed 20 the scorching rays of the
summer sun, produces the malaria which proves
fatal in its course, sweeping whole States, and
sptring neither age in its cOnquering
march.
After a residence Of more than twenty years in
the middle and Southern States, we think we have
discovered medicine which, to a certain extent,
is preventative of the attacks of bilious fever
ague, &C., and as such we recommend our Magnolia
Whisky.
We wish the public to understand that we are
not urging upon them the use of strong Liquors as
beverage We are, and always have been, opposed to
their being used in that way, but If people will
them such, let them have by all
pure article. that Will keep them in health, and
lengthen instead of shortening their lives. We pro-
pose to sell always pure aud unadulterated Liquors
for medicinal Purposes, and little for the stom-
specton by the best chemists in this or any other

AMERICAN
Wholesale Clothing House.
HNV EN-" YEARS 400. THR EK~HOZR

IHTktsN' K.ls.4BS 400, THE WHOLE
4 Clothing trade of tho West was comparatively
of small amount, and confined almost excln-
siVely to retail business in the larger towns and
cities alone. Now this line of Goods has become
almost Indispensable part of tho stock of every
general Dry Goods store from the crowded city 20
the cross-road stand. Like all changes in trade,
however, this one has not been produced except
the best of reasons Among these ara the great
saving of material by emitting a large quantity of
garments tOgether-the superior work and s;seed of
sewing machines in manufacturng-the great saw
ing of time in waiting for your e'tnrn at the Tai
lor's-the uncertainty Of oven Then getting salts
factory 'ft,' and above all the saving of at least
Re-tdlf the cost of the garment in the price For
number of years this has only been a part of our
general Dry Goods business, but we have made
arrangements to devote orr whole house exclu-
sively to il alone with such lines Of Notions and
Furnishing Goods will be necessary and desirable
in that trade. Belle ewing that the true interest Of
the trade will be TO sustain in this enterprise,
We would respectfully announce that now have
on hand one of the largest and most desirable
stocks of WE'LL MADE CLOTHING that was
ever offered to the trade of the West
We respectfully solicit call from all our old
friends and the trade generally. We charge moth
ing for sotsig goods and much If you bar
them. We are prepared to sell to all prompt-time
buyers as low any house in the trade. A liberal
discount also made on all cash sales.

OuR RAILRoAD.-We have received enough
iron to lay the track 81 miles, and the contrac-
tors are getting on very well. having laid the
track about one and half miles. The sudden
and unexpected fall in the Lakes prevented the
contractors from bringing out about ten thous-
and cross ties; in spite Of this drawback they
can procure sufficient number to complete the
road twelve miles to the first depot by October
next. We urgently request the company to
order the iron to be shipped by every steamer
bound for Shreveport, at any cost Unless our
road is finished at least ten miles, it will do no
good and will remain useless and foolish ex-
penditure. For all practical purposes the iron
for only five miles might just as we'll remain in
the mines of Wales With the road to the first
depot, local business would be created and
all the travel by stage westward would pass
ever the road.--cdddo G1,Ne.
