THE MISSISSIPPI DIARRHEA CORDIAL.
We call the attention of our readers
again TO this wonderful remedy, which
combines within itself sterling attri-
butes--its unparalleled success in the
rapid and permanent cure of cholera,
cholera morbus, diarrhea, and all bowel
affections, have brought out many imi-
tators who are endeavoring to supplant
this old friend and well.tried medicine.
Their efforts are in vain, as thousands
can testify that its virtues are indisputa

PROBABLY MURDER. EARLY this morn
ing colored woman discovered the dead
body of an infant in privy vault, in the
rear of q school house on High street,
between Poplar and Washington streets
1t had evidently lain there several days.
The skull bore marks of violence. The
case was reported to officer Dixon, of the
police force, who summoned the Coroner
to hold an inquest. There seems to be
little doubt that some one has sought
through murder to conceal the shame of
illicit parentage .-i,q. s,r.g
