Thirty-fve years since they were first intro
duced into this country from Germany, during
which time they have undoubtedly performed
more cures, and benefited suffering humanity to

These remedies will efectually cure Liver Com
plaint, Jaundice, Dyspepsia, Chronic or Nervous
Debility, Chronic DiarrhGa, Diseases of the Kid
neys, and all Diseases arising from dsordered
Liver Stomach or lntcstines.

Resulting from any cause whatever; prostra-
ton of the system, induced by severe labor hard
ships, exposure, tevers &C.
There is no medicine eXtant equal to these rem
cdcs in such cases. A tone and vigor is impart-
cd to the whole SYSTEM the appetite is strength
ened, food is enjoyed the stomach digests pro.
perly, the blood is purified, the complexion be.
comes sound and healthy, the yellow tinge i.
eradicated from the eyes, bloom Is given to tile
checks, and the weak and nervous invalid be
comes a strong and healthy being.
Persons advanced in life and feeling the hand O
time weighing heavily upon them, with all it
attendant ills will find in the use of this Btters
or the Tonic, an elixir that will instill new lif
into their veins, restore in measure the energy
and ardor of more youthful days, build up the

PARroxs graphic description of Pittsburx
and its coal fields, 10 the Atlantic, isn't
ehapterof Political Economy, but it furnishes
some data for it. John Stuart Mill declared
In his place in Parliament that the Epelish
coal fields would be exhausted in eighty
years. However that may be, it 10 evident,
from the capabilities Of the Continent, that
the United States will ultimately achieve SUI
premacy in manufactures. Those Pennsyl-
vAnis mines will be large integers 10 the pro-
duct Of that attained supremacy. So it is
particularly gratifying TO note to what re-
mote future our savants agree in postponing
the exhaustion of American coal mines, with
all the demands of constantly growing
population, and multiplying industries aud
Consumption upon them. The extent Of
this demand already is illustrated by local
paragraph Of the last Pi,tsburg Gazette 1t
gives list Of fifty steamboats, and tues, with
nearly four hundred barges, loaded With coal,
that have started down the Ohio for the sup
ply Of the Cincinnati, Louisville, and South
ern markets. These have all been let loose
together, by rise in the Mononsa and
10 form but one shipment. They carry g.
$4,000 bushels Of coal, worth $685., $50.
Aud Jet 1t is With consumption going on at

tent Of the coal fields Of Pennsylvania and
the United States, tell US tina, our coal will

The New York Commercial Advertiser,
which expresses the sentiments of Thurlow
Weed, in allusion to the resolution adopted
by the Virginia Republican State Conven-
ton, presenting the names of Grant and
Wilson for President and Yice-President,
says;
Without disparaging other distinguished
candidates for Vice President, we are free to
say that General Wilson has by long years
Of devotion to the Republican cause, earned
its confidence and is entitled to his reward
General Wilson is no fair weather politician.
He stands by.throuGh storm and disaster
His work as a politician is never done.
He always fnds something to do and he
does it thoroughly. And it is to be said to
his honor that while other Senators have
made fortunes, and bought expensive man
sions in Washington, he is the same poor
man that he was wnen, twenty years ago,
ne left his workshop to serve his country.
And this, in these degenerate times, is no
small praise. We differ with General viii
son about u1ttrerSdl negro suffrage and su,
premacy. But we can not withhold an eX-
preston of our admiration for a man whose
public record is distinguished for industry,
courage, patriotism and integrity.

The recent election in Louisiana teaches
the Republican party practical lesson.
The system OF fraud organized and praCticed
by the Democrats there should not fail to
operate as a saiutary admonition to the
Republicans here. 1t is the duty of every
member of the Republican party to see that
impartial, honest men shall receive, deposit,
and count the votes whenever party con-
test shall take place in Texas. 1t is also a
duty that every cOlOred man shall be guard.

ment, Of tree people are entirely slapped,
undermined, and overthrow; elections be-

who is at heart Republican will either by
force or fraud prevent another man from
casting his vote as his Judgment may die

men that the principles Of Republicanism
are true, and that the pOliCyOf that party is
the only policy which can perpetuate the
freedom of all men and secure free gov

10 the sUbioined amiable article from the
Houston Telegraph Lieutenant Governor
Dunn does not recognize the description of
himself nor do his friends recognize it
either. Its absurdity is laughable:
It seems to be taken for granted that
Warmoth, the Governor elect of Louisiana,
will be sent to the United States Senate by
the Radical majority in the Legislature. In
that case the Lieutenant Governor
elect ascends to the full honors of Gov
ernOr. He is a negro-full blooded,
thick lips, fat nose, ebo-shin, black
as the ace of spades. The gubernatorial
mansion will become a grand negro hotel

to the Democratic members ofthe Louisiana
Legislature since they have No chance of
eleCting a Demo cgat a log roll night and
day to make Governor Dunn the colleague of
Warmoth in the Senate, There would be
craftsmanship in that. With all of its
radicalism we doubt If the Northern stom-
ach could stand negro Senator; 'twould
turn wrong de out. A negro in the United

APPEARANCE OF THs ARMY WoRH.-The
opelousas Courier of the ninth thus notes
the appearance of this dreaded enemy Of
the planter:
On Monday last we were shown by our
friend, Captain Henry Garland, a number
of worms which had every appearance Of
being the genuine cotton caterpillar or
army worm, which were found on cotton
on his plantation, adjoining this place. One
of these insects was nearly or fully grown,
that is about one and a half inches in
length; the others not more than quarter
as large. All were of pale green, but In
shape and action the real simOnpure cotton
eaters. If it should prove that these ex-
terminators have already appeared, 1t
seem to us that now is the time to test the
question whether they can be destroyed or
not, as their presence while the cotton is 80
small can readily be detected.
If the people of St. Landry and the other
parishes of Louisiana would agree to cease
for while their political strife, and devote
their best efforts to the proper means to
exterminate the army worm, the boil worm,
and the other destroyers Of the cotton crop,
the result could not fail to be beneficial in
any event.
