TNHIS OINTMENT HAS BEEN MADE BY T.
i +. Christman, to O limited extent for Forty
Years, and for about thirty years free OF any
charge. For the last ten or twenty years, the
increased demand made it too heavy a tax for a
charitable business, and the people being willing
and anxious to pay for it, made it an article Of
some profit, and have since that time sold the
Ointment at one dollar per Box or Bottle
The Ointment is the cheapest that has been offer
ed to the publics tor many years. Each bottle
contains over three ounces of solid material, and
II put in liquid form, would make five bottles
but would not answer as well as IN the present
preparation. ..- -r
But little effort has ever been made TO bring it
before the public. To say that this Ointment
will cure everything would be asserting too much.
No Ointment will do that. But it is conceded
by every person acquainted with it, that
1t will cure as much as any Ointment ever
brought before the public, and has perform
ed cures whtre the most popular Ointmrnts,
with the attention of the most experienced Ply
sicians, have for years tailed. This Ointment is
no new thing got up. Its of long standing; and
the high reputation which il has obtained and
the increased demand, is entirely owing to its
own efficacy. And where it has been used i, is
considered the standing Ointment for family
use.
Believing that the Ointment is the BEST recon-
mendation, and as it had considerable circulation
during the war, and was considered the Standard
Ointment in the Army, we will simply add Il few
Certificates, TO show for what it has been used
with success. We offer nc certificate which is
not substantially true A great number of GER
titicates could be produced, but we deem it un-
necessary, as the Ointment will speak for itself.
We recommend the Ointment for the fol-
lowing diseases:
SCALD-HEAD, in its most complicated form.
SALT RHEUM.
ITCH, of any kind.
TETTER, of any kind. s
SORE LEGS, or SORES OF ANY KIND, of
many years standing.
RUNNING or ISSUES FROM THE EAR.
NEURALGIA, OF the worst Kind.
FROSTBITTEN FEET.
TOE or GROUND ITCH,
SPRAINs or BRUISES Of any kind.

COMING BAoK.-Last week four families
reached this place, on their way to Chatham
county, from which point they emigrated to
Indiana some three years ago. They are
sufficiently amused with that part of the
country, and say hundreds would return to
the old North State if they had the means.
Still there arc discontents in every neigh.
borhood who wish to try their luck in a new
State Greensboro Patriot.
Just as We predicted twelve months AGO.
Our readers will remember that we ALWAYS
said that those who were removing from tl,;s
State would be glad to get back after awhile
Recently we have heard of several persons
who removed to Texas, Georgia. Indiana
Illinois, &C., who intended to return to tIis
section of North Carolina.
The fact is, there is no better place in tho
world than good old North Carolina. and if
people will go to work and use the same ex.
ertions that are used by emigrants to Wes-
tern and Southwestern States. thew will,
succeed just rs well and enjoy many more
comforts and advantages. Let us all remain
in the sold Land" and assist each other
in getting public affairs right and STRAIGHT
The sun never shOne on better section of
country than North Carolina, and there are
no better people in the world.-Chaylotte

Mr.. EDITOR My attention has been
called to statement in the Raleigh Sentinel,
to the effect that l admitted. in discussion
with Mr. Waddel, that the Republican party
designed colonizing the negro Inc state
ment is entirely erroneous and untrue.
have not presumed on any occasion to state
or admit that the Republican party had any
Interior or collateral designs in reference to
the negro, or any other matter, beyond what
is set forth in the Republican platform at
Chicago, on the Goth of May, 1868. The
speakers of the Democratic party, whom
have heard or met, have generally essayed
to turn the discussion upon collateral or I'M
pertinent issues, but l have uniformly de-
clined to be drawn or provoked into such
discussions. On the occasion referred to IN
the Sentinel, simply stated in reponse to
such an effort, that had advocated IN 1850
the colonization of the negro by our govern
ment, because / then thought it could be
done thoroughly and effectually and in good
faith, but now the Government was estOpped
by what had been done, from doing any
thing more than aiding the removal of such
rs might desire to go. I also stated that L
thought it might be good policy in the gov
eminent to Go so, nut tlilS L gave us my Ill
dividual opinion, distinctly disclaiming any
knowledge direct or indirect, of any such
design by the Republican party. make
this correction rather to put myself right
with my political friends, than my political
opponents, for l know how useless it is to
attempt to satisfy those who are determined
to find fault.

The Loyal Generals upon the Election
of General Grant.

Oh UtHeTul
The following are extracts from the letters
of leading loyal soldiers and sailors to the
managers of the late Convention in Phila-
delphia:
GENERAL SHERMAN:
"No one, trust doubts my respect for,
and absolute confidence in Gen. Grant"
GENERAL HOWARD:
"Let him who led us to the completeness
of victory during the war lead us on safely
to complete triumph in peace. Such l
believe to be the earnest hope of every true
hearted Union man. black and white,
throughout this land"
COMMODORE SELFRIDGE:
"You may be assured, however, that my
sympatlies are with the loyal men who, in
the hour of our country's peril, marched to
the front, and there battled to save the
Union bearing the dear old tlag-the agis
of our libcrty-sO high that no arm of trea-
son could touch its folds.'
GENERAL Pope:
General Grants great services to his
country, his irmness of character, his kind
and magnanimous disposition, his evenness
of temper, and his tried capacity for affairs,
eminently fit him to discharge the duties of
the Presidential office, and the country would
have every reason to feel confidence in the
wisdom and purity of his administration"
GENERAL SIGEL:
81 shall, however, not fail to he present
at the grand mass-meeting of the Sd of No
vember to throw my vote into the scale fol
the triumph of national supremacy, justice
and humanity"
GENERAL. SHERIDAN:
every man who loves his country should
vote for Grant"
GENERAL BARNUM:
ave call upon every citizen who wore the
blue, whether on sea or land, to cast hi:
vote in the coming election for the Union
State ticket, and for Grant and Colfax."
GENIAL FITZPATRICK:
9" Scan I, can you, fellow soldiers, stand
timidly and cowardly by and see the Unior
and liberty destroyed forever?"
In contrast to these we have Gen. Hamp
ton and Gen. Forrest and Admiral Semme.
and General Ould, undertaking and revilns
the General of the army, and calling the rol
ofConfederate soldiers, in order to trampl'
on the laws and accomplish what they fought
for, by voting for Seymour and Blair.

In the Spring OF 1866, while the small pox was
raging, had my little boy vaccinated. 1t aflec
ted him severely, and it seemed he would have
the small pox. One of the most experienced
physicians was called in and attended promptly
to the case. The signs of small pox disappeared
from his body and seemed to settle in one of bis
legs, which commenced swelling to an amazing
degree, and was so painful that he had to be kept
on the arm constantly. Every effort to arrest
the swelling proved abortive; and the Doctor
said il it could not be arrested amputation would
be necessary. Tie Doctor said he had done all
he could and could not stop it. My sister and
myself concluded to try Christman's Ointment.
We made one application, and in short time
the child went to sleep and slept soundly Tor
hours After m king few more applications he
ceased complaining, the swelling disappeared,
and in two days he ran around the house.. He is
now sound boy with two sound legs, which
would not be SO, had the Ointment not been used.
