It is pleasant to the taste. ant 1 the cheapest medicine in the world, Ther,. fore. ia truth, it may be declared the day is not far distant when 1t mustbe appreciated and used in every household where Fever and Ague or chills and Fever is found to exist
 The wonderful operation ot the Texas Ton ic Syrup in neutralizing the effects of maia- rious poison in the human system, can only explain it's extraordinary agency in the speedy thorough and permanent cure ot 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 itsname imports, it is q Tonic of rare and medicinal virtues, composed of pure and harmless ingredients, and are so united as to form compound alike skillful in art, beau tiful in appearance. and can be taken with safety 10 the most delicate constitutions. IL is the result of lifetime of experience and practice in Southern climate, and was ney- CT known to fail, even where all othe reme- dies had been tried in vain.

True his reputation as lawyer is insigniii- cant, and his opinion on judicial points is about as valuable as that of the ne- gro Hawkins or any other corn-field negro, but that is the class of individ- uals out of which Arkansas radicalism manufactures great men,.

Rndicalissnl versus a Free Press.

The smallcotele of Radical politi- clans about the capifal have determin- ed that what ahey are pleased to desig- nate as the rebel press of the State shall be "snulIed out, to use their own phrase. They interpret the liberty of the press which is guaranteed as inVio- late under even the proposed constitu- ton. to mean liberty for q journal to publish what ii may deem proper--pro- vided itis nothing to tlie injury Of rad
 icalssm. By way of carrying out the schemes of 'the ring, one Benjamin, who, in consequence of having been yo-
 ted for as a member of the legislature
 by the negroes and few fanatical or ignoble whites at the late bogus elec- tion, claims to represent Pulaski coun-
 ty. has been deputed to have the project put into effect.
 Early in the session he introduced a bill in the so called house, will doubt less become a law, requiring all legal notices of every character, whether published at public or private expense, te be published only in soHh papers as the governor of the state shall desig- nate.
 Itfs apparent that the object of this l is pot only build up . radical press but i at the same time cut off the independ- ] ent press of the state from the business
 which goes far toward supporting it in | these hard times. And, too, not satis- ' fled with depriving the prescribed jour nais of all state patronage, the bill ac- l tually prevents private individuals { from publishing in papers of their choice, and eonlpels them 10 patron ] ize an obscure political paper which
 advocates the policy that outlaws them l politically.
 Wearc not surprised to Fear this fel- i low Benjamin say in she conelaye of the pretenders, that he would never vote public patronage to "rebel ieWs- papers, lie is opposed to even nnb- fishing iA the constH papers, notices of l tho times and places ot registration, in
 which every citizen in the state is con-
 oerned, unless such paper is radical in ] ifs politics. This Is one of the ways
 by which he proposes to educate the be- nighted people of Arkansas, and de- ! Yclopc home enterprises and sl those 1 interests which go to make up a pros perons cOmmunitv. Let the people 1 bear in mind that the indiEidual who

We wish to call the attention of our readers to the column advertisement headed "Purify Your Blood to all the articles mentioned in il. ill these afflicted by disease, or who have friends suffering from sickness, should care fully read, and we know they will .deriye pro fit from it, It gives us much pleasure to be able in this manner to recommend to our peo- pie these remedies, as years of trial show they fully deserve. Dr. I6s. A. Hurley's Sarsaparilla, the Great Blood ouriGers needs only to be tried to be fully appreciated. His Biuers, (Harley's,) are the best and purest now offered for sale. For debility and loss of appetite no others ought to be used. Hurley g Ague Tonic is harmless in it's effect and never fails to cure if used by directions. Try it.. Also his Worm Candy, (Hmley s,) cannot be equalled; any child will take it. So it is with Dr. seabrooks Soothing Syrup. the best and sa4estnow offered, as no bad effects ever oc- cur from using it. Mothers try one bottle. and in future you will get no other Also Dr seAhrook's Elixir of Pyrophosphate of iron and Calasaya; also Dr. Bettison's Eng. Horse Lihiment, and James Rudde k Cos Ext. Jam.

All the above remedies are unequalled; we cannot understand why iheig remedies might not as well be taken in the special diseases for which they are recon mended, with ss much confidence as the pre- scriptiou of aregular physician.
