the aniicipaiions of the Wing were literally

HUMBUG MEDICINE.

If one bay Northern jewelry and gets
cheated, getting five cents worth Of gold for
SIS 90, it is emily a little affair, nobody is
hurt, only egregiously cheated; but when
you are SICK and resort to the hundred and
one nostrums, lotions, pills and sarsaparil-
las, etc., gotten up by Dutch and Yankee
speculat ors in human miserfes, you are pos
sibly something more than cheated-pOsi-

injured? fyou find their stuff useless, and
yourself imposed upon, can you expose them
so that they can be made to feel it? If you
see fit to use medicines prepared by others
than your own physicians-whyn otinquIre
after Southern Remedies, prepared by South
ern physicians, and sold by Southern drug
gists or vendors in your miist-men whom
you can expose, and whose profits you can
check, if they cheat you. We believe that
there are Southern remedies for every COM
plant, from the dreaded ague or incipient
fever to cholic, cut, bruise or burn, for
which no one wants to post for the fsr-off
doctor Each family should keep some sim
pie. effective and reli able relief on hand
ready for a moments use.
We embrace the above sentiments. We
believe that there are better medicines put
up in the South by reliable proprietors, that
are superior to articles prepared by North
ern or Dutch vendors. The Southern RENE
dies advertised in this paper, We have nc
doubt, excel the patent Pain Killers and
Ready Reliefs, and Ague and Liver Pills
with which Northern vendors deluge oui
land. Let them be fairly tested, and if they
are found TO be impositions, the columns Of
this paper are open for them to be exposed
| for cheaper terms than the proprietors OBJ

We learn that where the AMBRosIAL On
