 DR. JOHN BuLL--Dear Sir: l have recent ly given your ssWorm Destroyer" several trials, and find it wonderfully efiicacious It has not failed in single instance to have the wished-for effect. am doing pretty large country practice, and have daily use for some article of the kind. am free to confess that l know of no remedy recommended by the ablest authors that is certain and speedy in it's effects. On the contrary they are un- certeain in the extreme. My object in writ ing you is 10 find upon what terms l can get the medicine directly from you. If can get it upon easy terms, shall use great deal of it. am aware that the use of such articles is contrary to the teachings and practice of a great ma joiity of the -egs.tar line of NJ. E, but see no just cause or good sense in dis carding remedy which we know to be efii- cient, simply because we may be ignorant of it's combination. For my part, shall make it a rule to use all and any means to alleviate suffering humanity which l may be able to command--not hesitating because some one more ingenious than myself may have learned it's effects first, and secured the sole right to secure that knowledge. However, l am by no means an advocate or supporter of the thousands of worthless nostrums that flood the country, that purport to cure all manner of disease to which human flesh is heir. Please reply soon, and inform me of your best terms am, sir, most respectfully,

From the Macon (Ga.) telegraph, 25th.1 CottOn-A Scheme to Head off
 Spectators.

There Is project on foot In some o1 the counties of this State which, if 1t can be successfully set on foot in all the coun- ties, not only in Georgia, but all over the South, will effectually stop the game which speculators have been playing upon Southern planters since the war, especially last season, and which they are now try ing to play again, by ruling down the price of cotton until they can get it all out of the hands of the planters, and then sell ing it to the manufacturers at enormous profits
 The scheme, as explained to us by an intelligent gentleman, is this: Let all the planters of county have common ware house to store their cotton, and let tbls warehouse be under the control of several responsible and reliable gentlemen, selec- ted by the planters of the county, whose duty it shall be to receive and receipt for the cotton, and see that it is properly stored and protected. Then, upon this aggregate amount of cotton stored, let these gentlemen borrow money at a reasonable rate of interest, and from 1t supply the immediate pecuniary neces- sities of the planter, at the same rate of interest upon which it was obtained by the keepers of the warehouse-each planter having the privilege to borrow money in proportion to the amount of cotton he has in store. fla planter is willing to take the market price for his cotton and desires to sell, let the warehouse buy it, if the market price is too low, and it then be- comes the property of the other planters of the association, and becomes also DOT ton of the common stock upon which the money is borrowed to supply the demands of the planters.
 By this means it is thought planters will be enabled to hold their cotton for good prices, and instead of their labor be- ing the sport and playing ot speculators, it will rule and control them, ii not shut them out of the market altogether; for if the entire cotton crops of counties can be thus collected in the hands of few plan ters, they can sell directly to manuiac- turers and consumers of the raw material, and not a bale fall into the hands of specu- lators. The price will then be settled by and between the producer and consumer of cotton, and the planter can demand his nrice instead of being forced to take what ever is offered. When the question of pbice is settled between the producer and consumer, then. if the speculator wants to show his hand, and force the manuiac, turer tospay more for cotton than the nianfsr nskf, let him overbid the manu- 1aclurer, and he is then entitled to control the price, for the planter has fairly dis posed of the right to do so.
 We believe that some such scheme as we have crudely outlined will soon be adopted by planters. It is certain that, as things are now working, the planter will never be able to control the price of his cotton crop, which be surely has she rights to do,

NIorals of Carpet-naggers.

The Georgetown (S. C.) Times informs us that one w. l. Webb, carpet bagger, from Rocky Hill, Ct, has been arrested by the District Sheriff, on a charge of bigamy, made by his wife in Connecticut. The rascal married respectable girl in Georgetown, last year. We find in our Charleston exchanges the annexed delec- table morceau, further Illustrative of car pet-bag morality:
 Foster, rad, of tho North Carolina House of Representatives, alluding to a silver-spoon report, said such charge might possible be made against Beast Butler with truth, but not against him. He then attacked Mir. Sinclair, who re- piled as follows:
 Mir. Sinclair said it would be unpar- liamentary to call the member liar, but nevertheless the assertion that he twas a liar" was true The member from Bladen, Foster, who wished to incorporate in the hill provision for embalming bodies, was greatly interested in that business, for in the pursuit of that occupation, at Will mington. just after the war, he received an order from Northern gentleman to disinter his son, who had died in that place from the effects of the amputation of his left leg Foster, being unable to find the identical body, and disliking to lose his profit, selected body and cut off one of it's legs. When the body reached home, 10 and behold! it was found out that the right leg had been cut of by mis- take. The gentleman, of course, discov- cred the fraud, returned the body, and the carpet-bag resurrectionist was left minus his commission.

Having had indubitable evidence of4Es prompt and certain effects from the testimo- ny of multitude of respectable citizens. among whom are classed some of our best physicians, we do no. hesitate to recommend this Preparation in all cases of Fever and Acue and Chils and Fever: indeed, from the facts in our possession of its intrinsic value, it would not be too much for us to state that when the directions are strictly complied with, we warrant cure in every case where it is tried.
