TEXAS TONIC SYRUP.
A Vegetable Compound for the Ra
pid and Permanent Cure of
CHILLs AND FEVER, or FEVER
AND AGUEI
Every Poison has it's Antidote! Ev-
cry Disease has its Cure!

The people of the Mississippi
Valley have long felt the necessity
for, and want of, a Safe, Certain
and Reliable Remedy, as a substi-
tute for QuiniRe, Strychnine, and
other poisonous Drugs, for the cure
ofFeVer aud Ague, or Clills and
Fever. We claim, and the result
will show, and bear testimony to
every unprejudiced mind, that the
Texas Tonic Syrup has supplied
this want and accomplished this
purpose. It's Tonic, Alternative and
Antiseptic qualities are such that
none can possibly be disappointed
in it's effects. Upon it's own merits,
therefore, it is sustained. A single
trial is all that is needed TO stamp
this remedy as the greatest specific
of the age.
The ingrediments of which this
Medicine is composed are simple
productions of nature Astounding
upon certain streams in the State
OF Texas, and were ever used by the
Aborigines of that State as a spe-
cifie for Fevers of all kinds, and es-
pecially Fever and Ague, which
they never failed to cure.
Accelerated Physician, acquaint-
ed with these facts, has furnished
us his theory upon this important
subject, and hence the Product
properly named TEXAS TONIC
SYRUP, which wenow offer to the
public as a specific and positive
cure for Fever and Ague, or Chills
and Fever, no matter of how long
Standing.
Having had indubitable evidence
of it's prompt and certain effects
from the testimony of a multitude
ofrespectable citizens, among whom
is classed many of our best Physi-
clans, we do not hesitate to recon-
mend this Preparation in all cases
of Fever and Agtle and Chills 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
a cure in every case, where it is
tried. 1T is pleasant to the taste
and the cheapest Medicine in the
world. Therefore, in truth, it may
be declared the day is not far dis
tant when it must be appreciated
and used in every household where
Fever and Ague or Chills and Fe-
yer is found to exist.

LOUISIANA, WEDNESDAY,, SEPTEMBER 3, 1868.

agance have exceeded anything known in
history, and by its frauds and monopolies
it has nearly doubled the burden Of the
debt created during the war. It has
stripped the President Of his constitutional
power of appointment, even of his own
cabinet; under its repeated assaults the
pillars of the government are rocking on
their base, and should it succeed in No
vember next. and inaugurate its Presi-
dent, we will meet it as subjected and
conquered people, amid the ruins OF. liberty
and the shattered fragments of The Consti-
tuition. And we do declare and resolve,
that ever since the people of the United
States threw off all subjasation to the
british crown, the privilege and trust of
suffrage have belonged to the several
States, and Fave been granted, regulated
and controlled exclusively by the political
power of each State, respectively; and any
attempt by Congress, on any pretext what
ever, to deprive any State of this right, or
interfere with this exercise, is fragrant
usnrpation of power, which can find no
warrant in the Constitutions, and if sane
toned by the people will snbvert our form
of government, and can only end in a sim
gle, centralized, consolidated government,
in which the separate existence of the
States will be entirely absorbed, and an
unqualified despotism be established in
place of federal Union of equal States;
that we regard the reconstruction acts of
Congress, so-called, as usnrpations, uncon-
stitutional, revolutionary and void that
our soldiers and sailors who carried the
flag OF our country to victory against a
most gallant and determined foe must ever
be gratefully remembered, and all the
guarantees given in their favor must be
faithfully carried into execution; that the
public lands should be distributed among
the people, and should be disposed of Ell
Their under the presumption of homestead
laws, OF sold in reasonable quantities, and
to none but actual occupants, at the mini
mum price as established by the govern
ment; when grants of the public lands
may be allowed necessarily for the en-
couragements ofimportant public improve
ments, the proceeds of the sale of such
lands, and not the lands themselves,
should be SO applied. That the President
of the United States, Andrew johnson, in
exercising the power of his high office in
resisting the aggressions of Congress on
the constitutional rights of the States and
the people, is entitled to the gratitude Of
the whole American people and on behalf
of the Democratic Party we tender him
our thanks for his patriotic efforts in that
regard.
Upon this platform the Democratic Party
appeals to every patriot, including all the
conservative element, and all who desire
to support the Constitution and restore the
Union. forgetting all past differences of
opinion, to unite with us in the present
great struggle for the liberties Of the peo-
pie, and that to all such. to whatever party
they may have heretofore belonged, we
extend the right hand of fellowship, and
hail all such cooperating with us as
friends and brothers.

The Horticultural Society.

The Horticultural Society.
The Kenosha Horticultpi Society held
their regular monthly meeting on
Monday evening, Goth inst. President Hins
dale in the chair. The Executive Committee
reported premium list for the 1st exhibition
OF the Society, to be held on the 25th of June,
prox. A random discussion upon the nature
of the premiums to be awarded, followed,
but without arriving at any definite agree
ment upon the matter, the subject was re-
ported back to the Executive Committee.
A motion prevailed to print $50 copies of
the list, when completed, for the use of the
members.
Several new names were proposed for mem
bership, and others who had been previously
proposed, were elected. The Society now
numbers something over seventy members,
and will undoubtedly soon reach hundred.
Much interest is manifested at the frequent
meetings of the Society, aud the discussions
are animated and instructive.
Small fruit culture, laid over from a previ-
Gus meeting, was the subject for discussion.
Judge Jilsun being called upon, offered some
remarks upon his experience with the Doo-
little Raspberry. He had succeeded well with
it upon his grounds 1t proved hardy and
productive, and required but comparatively
little labor and care to produce good crops Of
! fruit. Pres. Hinsdale followed with a de-
| scription of the manner of propagation and
culture, followed by S. Gait and II. 7. O'Far
rell upon varieties, propagation and culture
| Pres Hinsdale called the attention of the
Society to several specimens of the \. w
Fertilizing Co.'s Artificial Manures, as substi
tutes for stable manure. If the Fertilizers al
as strong manures as their odor would indi
cave, but little would be required to aecon

ence of Temporary insanity" How the tenn
porary insanity was probably induced the jury
expressed no opinion. 1t is doing no one any
Injustice to say that persons who have seen
Mr.. Zweenick often within the past few
weeks, inform us that he has been more or

toxicating drinks. The unfortunate man
has probably fallen a victim to too frequent
