Ague Cure,

FoR THE SPEEDY CURE OF
Intermittent Fever, or Fever and Ague,
Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious
Headache, and Bilious Fevers, indeed
for the whole class Of diseases origi.
mating in hillary arrangement, caused
by the Malaria Of miasmatic countries.
No one remedy is louder called for by the
necessities of the American people than a sure
and safe cure for Fever and Ague. Such
we are now enabled to offer. with a perfect
certainty that 1t will eradicate the disease,
and with assurance, founded on proof, that
no harm can arise from its Itye in "a dCan-
tity.
That which protects from, or prevents this
disorder must be Of immense service in the
communities where it prevails. Prers,,tios is
better than cure, for the patient escapes the
risk which he mus run IN violent attacks Of
this baleful distcEnper. This "CuRE" expels
the miasmatic poison of FEVER AND AGus
from the system and prevents the develop
ment of the disease, If taken on the first a,-
proach of its premonitory symptoms. 1t Is
not only the best remedy ever yet discovered
for this class Of complaints. but also the
cheapest. The large quantity We ~pply for
q dollar brings it within the reach of every
body; and in bilious districts, where FEVER
AND AeuE prevails. every body should have it
and use it freely both for cure and protection.
1t is hoped this price will place it within the
reach Of all-the POOR as we'll as the rich. A
great superiority of this remedy over any
other ever discovered fo- tire speedy and GER
tain cure of Iatermittents Is, that it contains
no Quinine OF mineral. consequently it pro-
duces no quin:sm or other injurious effects
whatever upon thc constitution. Those cured
by It are left as healthy as if they had never
had the disease
Fever and Ague is rot alone the consequence
Of the mia7matic poison. a great variety Of
disorders arise from its irritation. among which
are Neuralgia, rheumatism. Gout, Headache,
Biindne>s. Ioothache. Earachc. Catarrh, Asth-
ma, Palp;ta;inn. Painful Affection of the
Spleen, Mysteries, Pain in the Bowels. Colic,
Paralysis. and Derargeraent Ct the Stomach.
all Of which. when originating IN this cause.
put ON the intermittent type, or become period
ical. This Cure" expels the poison from
the blood, end consequently cures them all
alike. 1t is an invaluable protection to immi-
grants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing in the malarious districts. If taken
occasionally or daily while exposed to the in
fiction, that will be excreted from the system.
and cannot accumulate In sufficient quantity
to ripen into disease. Hence it is even more
valuable fer protection than cure, and few will
ever suffer from Interinittents. if they avail
Themselves Of the protection this remedy sf-

TOBACCO CROP IN Los ANGELEs.--CoD-

raising Of tobacco 10 Los Angeles county.

healthy and luxuriant condition. lie has
two kinds-the Havana, and the Connect.

ed into cigars exclusively. He has cut one
crop, aud from the ratoons expects another
full crop. 1t has been supposed that, from
The prevalence OF dust, the tobacco crop
would not be a success in this section, but
the experience OF Mr.. Sausman has demon
strated the tact that no deterioration of the
"weed" will take place on this account as
when the leaf is dried, the dust shakes of,

marked that It was much to be hoped that
there would be no necessity for bringing

Arrada aEmutrat.

THE SHOE PINCHES.-One is amused at
the audacity Of the rebels in their COM
plants against the Federal Government for
arTesting the most notable traitors and sus.
pending the writ of habeas corpus against
them in such districts as are dangerously
infected with treason. Their sympathisers
in this State have lost no opportunity TO
"cry aloud aud spare not" against overy
step taken by the Government TO protect
itself. They reminded the people that IL
was not constitutional to arrest men for
treason and suspend the habeas corpus. But
they secretly chuckled amOng themselves,
aud bad no word of condemnation in any
Of their presses or speeches against the
high-handed outrages upon law and indi.
viduals, practieed every day by the rebel
cut-throats in the employ of JEFF. Davis. II
was asseuted TO, as matter of course, that
these pluuderers had right to tar and
feather, ride upon rails, bang, shoot, steal
from, drive off, imprison without hearing,
and in every way usual among brigands
outrage the Union men Of the South. IL a
Northern man has been caught at the South
at any time within the last five months, hie
life has not been worth half q cent on the
dollar; and If he has been slain, or impris-
Oned, or robbed. not one of these hypOcrili-
cal screamers for the faithful observance Of
law and Constitution, has ever lifted bis
voice in behalf of the sufferer. Stockton
