s. Dr. MaggieIsts the founder of a new Med
ical System! The quantitarians whose vast
internal doSes enfeeble the stomach and
paralyZe the bowels, must give precedence
to the man who restores health and appe-
tite, with frOm'one to two of his extFaor-
binary Pills, and cures the most Virulent
sores with box or so of his wonderful and
all healing Salye. These two great specif-
les of the Doctors are fast Superceding all
the stereotyped nostruns, OF. the day.-sFsx--
traordinary cures by MaggieIs Pills and
Salve have opened the eyes of the public to
the ineficiency of the $50 called remedies
of others, and upon which people have so
long blindly depended. Maggiel's Pills are
not of the class that are swallowed blythe
dozen, and of which every box fun taken
creates an absolute necessity for another
One or two of Maggiel'S Pills suffices to
place the bowels in perfect order, tone the
stomach, create an appetite, and render
the spirits light and buoyant! There is no
gripping and no reaction in the form of con-
stipation. If the liver is affected, its func-
tions are restored; and If the nervous sys-
tenn is feeble,,i is rinyigorated. This last
quality makes the medicine very desirable
for the wants of delicate females. Ulcerous
and erupive diseases are literally ex-
t1nguished by the disinfectant power of
MaggiePs Salve. In fact, it is here an
nounced that 1Hdggieps Bilious. DuspeDtic
and DldrTioe0 Pills cure where all others
fail! While for Burns, Scalds, ChilbIains
Cuts and all abrasions of the skin bn00ieE,s

As an additional iinducement for our young

J publish the following extract from letterffrom
New Orleans, addressed to gentleman for
a1aerly of our city inreSponseite one asking in-
formation concerning the proposed emigration:
1 have several friends who, when the Con
federacy broke up, left for Mexico, intending to
make that country their home, but they soon
found that there was no safety for either life or
Z property, and. returned to their cid homes,
wisely determining to work out THEN future 10
this country. Mexico never,at any time, afford
ed thesame facilities for pevunisry success, as
the Gulf States, and certainly does not now,
when the political status is so unsettled. 1t is
true that few settlers are doing well, lit is so
reported but they carried with them enough
Of money to have made them very comfortable
here, and dare not Leave their little tract, for
fear Of robbers and murderers. | would advise
your friends, earnestly, not to attempt to leave
the Southern States, asazess they: arc qoell pro
raded aclth money They will not get immedi-
ate employment il Mexico, and will fibd no one
thereto giyethem assistance. .aaGn:...s 2&E
IF they wish to leave Maryland or Virginia
there is avery fine opening in the State Of
Texas, for those who are willing to labor, in a.
most every branch of business.
We mentioned some days ago that General
Burbridge had shot gentlemen in New, Or
leans lately. The following Is an accounts Of
the affair from the, New Orleans Picayune:
considerable excitement was created yes
terday by a difficulty which occurred about II
o'clock, at the Custom House, in the Office Of
Col. Burbridge, between General Burbridge
and Mr.. n. E. Wright, Of Shreveport, in
which. the latter was shot in the right arm, and
:, was, conveyed his room, corner OF Carondelet
and Gravier streets. COL Burbridge surrend-
cred himself to Judge Durell. Of the Z. S.
Circuit Court We learn that the difficulty
originated in regard to some matter connected
with the internal revenue Office. 4 heated
conversation occurred between the parties
relative thereto and the lie was given by Mr.
Wright. General Burbridge at once drew his
pistol and fired three times at Wright. ln adj
dition to the wound received in the arm by
= Wright, one of the balls passed through the
side Of his coat After the firing commenced
Wright is said TO have drawn a knife: but had
no opportunity to use the same.
The Crescent says the reason Wright did not
use his knife was that Burhridge cot out of the
Way. .r...,
