 DRsJoHS BuLL-Dear Sir: I have recent ly given your sWorm Destroyer" several trials, and find it wonderfully efficacious It has not failed in single instance to have the wished for effect. l am doing pretty large country practice, and have daily use for some article of the kind am free to confess tlrsi know of no remedy recommended by the ablest authors that is so certain and speedy in it's effects. On the contrary they are un- certean in the extreme. My object in writ ing you is to 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. l am aware that the use of such articles is contrary to the teachings and practice of a great majority of the rsguidr line of NJ. D.s, but see no just causeor good sense in dis carding a remedy which we know to be effi- cient, simply because we may be ignorant of it's combination. For my part, shall make it n 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 Iostrtrms that flood the country, that pnrport to cure all manner of disease to which human flesh is heir. Please reply soon, and inform me of your best terms Lam, sir, most respectfully,

 "TIXOSE GUNSo
A Correct Account Of the Manner i'm which They were Captured.

We yesterday stated the fact of the little steamer Hesper being boarded by Arkansas boys, and the cargo of fire arms she was carrying to Radicals lover the way thrown into the Missis- sippi river. We now give the partieu- lars of the seizure, as stated by Capt. John Ford, whose tug, the Nettie Jones, was impressed for the service:
 ssOn Thursday afternoon the tug Nettie Jones, under my command, left the wharf for Fort Pickering, having a barge in tow, and intending to return with lumber. The tug reached its destination about half-past five o'clock. No one was in sight; but the line had scarcely been fastened before the spot was covered with men, all so masked as to be unrecognizable. They were probably hundred in number, and had evidently been concealed for sometime under the bluff. Had they sprung out of the earth their appearance before the startled crew could hardly have been more. sudden. Without speaking a word, they quickly boarded the tug, took possession of the pilot-house and engine-room, and ordered me to imme- diately start down the river, adding, by way of an incentive to promptness, that some body might be hurt in the event of q refusal.
 s.As soon as I could sufficiently re- cover from my fright 10 decide whether my unbidden guests were hundred or thousand in number, comprehended that resistance was out of the question. Accordingly I ordered one of the crow to cast of the line, and in few mo-

ments the tug was rapidly steaning for Presidenfs Island chute. Upon taking possession, the new wcommanders kept @ vigilant eye on. the crew, not allowing aEy one of them to leave his post for even moment. The engineer was not permitted to oil his machinery, the mysterious passengers evidently fearing he might suddenly put it out of repair.
 "The head of the tug was held stead fly down the river until approaching Cat Island, twenty-five mile below, near the Arkansas shore. This was between seven and eight o'clock, and was ordered to run my tug alongside the little steamer Hesper, which left the city during the afternoon with, the car go of Radical arms for Arkansas, and was tied up, wooding. During the trip, the leaders of this mysterious party informed. me that they intended overhauling the Hesper and destoying the arms, but that strict orders had been issued to the men to harm no one, and respect all other property.
 "In obedience to orders, ran the tug alongside. This was no sooner accom- plisbed than, leaving two of the num- Der in the pilot-house, two in the engine-room and one in the cabin as a guard, the yelled party suddenly sprang aboard the Hesper. Little or nothing was said, and the boarders, who eviden- tly had an eye to business, placed the crew under surveillance and commen- ced the work in hand. The gun-boxes were broken open with axes and hatchets, the guns taken outand thrown into the river. Many were broken be- fore being consigned to the element. A large quantity of ammunition in the hold, marked 'sundries,' was also thrown over board. The boxes were showed overheard after them, and many of them were seen by passengers on the Mayflower, floating with the current. In half an hour the task was accom- plished, and the party quietly returned to the tug, leaving tho Hesper adrift and in possession of all her crew who remained, Captain Houston and his brother having made rapid strides for the woods as soon as the Nettie was seen bearing down upon their craft.
 sThe mysterious raiders once more aboard my tug,I was required to turn the boat northward, and proceed until further orders. At midnight she reached point in Presidents Island chute, eight miles below the city. Here, by order of the yelled comman- der, she was runfaground. No sooner had this been done than some one, un- til that moment invisible, on the island, was hailed. A minute afterward a skiff put out from the shore, and was rowed along side. Whether the person in it was black or white could not be ascertainted, as he, too, was masked. Six of the raiders got into the skiff and were taken ashore, and the skiff contin- ued making trips until three q. m. when the last six were safely landed on the Arkansas shore. But before, any one left, strict orders were given to remain in the chute until daylight. did so, the tug not changing position until seven a. m. yesterday. She then re- turned, bringing the first and only intelligence of what had occurred"

 THE CAMILLA RIOT. Gen. SibIey's RenOrt-It throws the Responsibility on the Ne-
 grOeS.

The fact was heralded throughout the country several weeks since that Gen. eral Sibley was Investigating the cause of the recent riot Eat Camilla. Ga, and that, when completed, the report wou Id be sent to General Howard, of the Freedmen's Bureau, and, of course as the Radicals expected, it would be all in their favor and against the truth. They wero awaiting it's arrival. eager to make political capital from its state ments.
 This report, it is well known, has been transmitted to Gen. Howard by Gen. o. Sibley, and should certainly have been in the possession of that autocrat of the bureau for the freedmen for some days past. Our reporter has made several applications at the head quarters of the bureau for copy of the report or peep at its contents. He has been informed by some of the off cials there that ''they did not think the report had yet been received"
 Gen. Howard refuses to give the re- port to the press, or any information concerning it. The report does not suit him and his Radical friends. It is very long and is based upon the sworn statement of responsible witnesses.
 1t throws the responsibility of the riot wholly upon the negroes, and demonstrates the fact that they went to the meeting armed, and when remonstrated with by the Sheriff refus- ed to give up their arms, which was the cause of the riot. The first dispatches regarding the disturbances are proved to have been substantially correct, and the refusal of Gen. Howard to allow the report to be published is sufficient evidence of it's damaging character to the Radical party.
 Gen. Sibley has been an army officer for thirty odd years, and was not just the kind of man to garble facts and truth to suit the Radical scheme.

The following letter was made public the first time on Wednesday night:
 WASHINGTON, Saturday, June P, 1868.
 DEAR SIR :--I regret 1 can not speak favorably of the Chicago platform. It is like most of the Republican plat forms for the past six years, lame and cowardly. Fortwenty years before the war the North behaved like poltroons in all their legislative controversies with slavery. They have much more physical than moral courage. Had it not been for few determined men in 1861 the Union would have been dissol- vLd. The Republicans have, as l said, great physical courage, and when driven to the test, will always conquer. They are just as timid now as they were before the war-for trade might suffer. What did the bold men at Chicago gain by selling the right of suffrage? They tell me that the loyal blacks at the South earned it by the aid they gave us, but that when they have not made that purchase, the right ot suffrage remains at the pleasure of tho States. Now, the Republican party knows that the Declaration of Indepen- dence contains no such folly, no such WIChCuuCoSs tiCau SNCl mon oo o man, and the right ofuniversal suffrage as an inalienable right, long suspended from neglect, and now, for the first time since the forming of tho Constitu- tion of the United States, capable of enforcement. You insult the shades of Adams, Otis, Jefferson, and their com peers, by talking to them about barter ing the imperishable right of the elec- tive franchise. Why not traffic or sell their life, liberty, and souls? This doc Urine reduces all men to soulless slaves or corpses, Thisquestion must be met the sooner it is done the more success full it will be. There is one cons solation. The Democrats can't find as good candi- dates; but, from constant and long practice, will make a much more villain ous platform. It is vain for the Repub- lican party to hope to maintain their liberty by skulking. Let them be bold and honest, and they will learn that "Heaven still rules" Let them be cowardly and mean, and they will re- ceive their reward with the "hewers of wood and drawers of water"
 am, sir, very respectfully your obe- dient servant, THADDEUs STEVENS.

Having had indubitablc evidence of it's prompt and certain effects from the testimo- ny of multitude of respectable citizens, among whom are classed some of our best physicians, we do not hesitate to recommend this Preparation in all cases of Fever and Ague and Chills and Fever: indeed, from the facts in our possession of it's 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. It is pleasant to the taste, and the cheapest medicine in the world There fore in truth, it may be declared the day IS not far distant when it must be appreciated and used in every household where Fever and Ague or Chills and Fever is found to exist.
 The wonderful operation of the Texas Ton ic Syrup in neutralizing the effects of mala- rious poison in the human system, can only explain it's extraordinary agency in the speedy, thorough and permanent cure of Chills and Fever or Fever and Ague, and all their kindred diseases, in whatever form of Bilious Complaints they may make their ap- pearance.
 As it's name imports, it is Tonic of rare and medicinal virtues, composed of pure and harmless ingredients, and are so united as to form a compound alike skillful in art, beau tiful in appearance, and can be taken with safety to the most delicate constitutions. It is the result of lifetime of experience and practice in a Southern climate, and was nev- CT known to fail, even where all othe reme- dies had been tried in vain.
 Those who are unacquainted with the ex- traordinary properties of this home produc- ton, manufactured from Roots and Plants indigenous to the soil of our ''sunny South, , land Lence adapted to the cure of Southern climatic diseases) are respectfully referred to the certificates of respectable citizens whose names are embraced in pamphlet which accompanies each bottle; also the en- dorsements of the press in all the Southern States, indicating the many thousand cures already performed by our justly celebrated Texas Tonic Syrup.
 The reports from hundreds of Druggists, Merchants and Dealers, from all parts of the country. are uniform in stating the medicine is safe, certain and reliable, as substitute for Quinine and the poisonous compounds heretofore generally sold, and is rapidly supplanting everything of this class.
 As home enterprise it especially com mends itself to the people of this section of the country, who are now struggling in an effort to do away with old prejudices in favor of foreign produce, and may we not hope foreign ssQuack Nostrums," the proprietors of which. in most cases, are governed by no- thing but mercenary motives, know nothing of the properties of Medicinal Agents, and care nothing for our interests, except to en- tice our people into tue use of their vile mixtures.
 The Texas Tonic Syrup is packed in cases of two dozen.
 Dealers supplied upon better terms than any other remedy affords.
