Another Amendment.

"Brick" Pomeroy, in a late
number of his paper, lets fly this
bolt at the Reconstruction Com
mittee:
An exchange says another
amendment to the Constitution
has been proposed by one of the
Committee on Reconstruction, and
will be presented to the attention
of Congress. 1t will nearly read
as follows:
ART. CXXXIV.-That no State
shall be admitted torepresentation
in Congress until by provision
embodied in its fundamental law,
itpledges its citizens neverto claim
restoration of pianos, watches, fin.
ger-rings, spoons, silk dresses

nybody. Their eff ZA U&~
fects have sbupdantly = ~ n
shown to the commu-
nifty how much they ISL
excel the ordinary
medicines in use. They are safe and pleas
ant to take, but powerful to cure. Their pen
etiating properties stimulate the vital activi-
ties of the body, remove the distinctions OF
its organs, purify the blood, and expel dis
ease. They purge out the foul humors which
breed and grow dstamper. stimulate sluggish
or disordered Igans into their natural action,
and impart healthy tone with strength to
the whole system. Not only do they cure
the everyday complaints Of everybody. but
also formidable and dangerous Diseases
While they produce powerful effects, they are
at the same time, in diminished doses, the
safest and best physic that can be employed
for children. Being sugar-coated, they are
pleasant to take and, being purely vegetable,
arr free from any risk of harm, Cures have
been made which surpass belief, were they
not substantiated by men of such exalted po-
sition and character, as to forbid the suspicion
of untruth. Many eminent clergymen and
physicians have lent their names to certify to
the public the reliability Of our remedies,
while others have sent us the assurance OF
their conviction that, our preparations con-
tribute immensely to the relief of our atfilct-
ed. suffering fellow men.
The Agent below named is pleased to fur
nish gratis our American Almanac. containing
directions for the use and certificates OF their
cures, of the following complaints -
Costiveness, Bilious Complaints, Rheuma-
tism, DropsY, Heartburn, Headache arising
from foul stomach, Nausea, Indigestion, Nor
bid Inaction of the Bowels and Pain arising
therefrom, Fiatulency, Loss of Appetite. all
Diseases which require an evacuant medicine.
They also, by purifying the blood and stimu-
lating the system, cure many complaints
which it would not be supposed they could
reach, such as Deafness, Partial Blindness,
Neuralgia and Nervous lrritability, Dersnge-
ments of the Liver and Kidneys, Gout and
other kindred complaints arising from low
state of the body, or obstructi ion of its func-
tons.
Do not be put off by unprincipled dealers
with other preparations which they may make
more profit on. Demand AYERS and take nc
others. The sick want the best ai1 there il
for them, and they should have it.

We learn that cotton is generally
knee high, but in many instances
the grass and weeds are still high

Sowing Wild Oats.

In all the wide range of accepted max
inns, there is none, take 1t for all IN all,
more thoroughly abomiuable than the
one as TO the sowing of wild oats. Look
at it on what side you will and | will defy
you to make anything hut devils max
i'm of it. What man--be he young, old
or middle aged-sows, that and nothing
else, shall he reap The one only thing
TO do with wild oats is to put them care
fully in the hottest part of the hre, and
get them burned TO dust, every seed of
them. If you sow them, no matter in
what ground, they will come, with long
tough roots like the couch grass, and
luxuriant stales and leaves, as sure as
there is sun in heayen--a crop which
it turns one heart old to think Of, The
devil, too, whose special crop they are
will see that they thrive, and you, and
no one else will have to reap them; and
no common reaping will get them out of
the soil, which must be dug down deep,
again and again Well for youlil, with
all your care, you can make the grounds
sweet again by your dying day. DR.
