The Daily clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1866-1888, 1868-07-09

The proprietor of this celebrated medicine
justly CLAIMS for it a superiority over all rene
dies ever offered to the public for the safe, GER
tain, speedy and permanent cure of Ague and
Fever and Chills and Fever, whether of short
or long standing. He refers to the entire
Western and Southwestern country to bear
him testimony to the truth of the assertion,
that in no case whatever will it fail to cure,
if the directions are followed and carried out.
In great many cases a single dose has been
sufficient for cure, and whole families have
been cured by single bottle, with a perfect
estoration of the general health. 1t is, how
ever. prudent, and in every case more certain
to cure, if Its use is continued for week or
two after the disease has been checked, more
especially in difficult and long standing cases.
usually, this medicine will not require any aid
to keep the bowels in good order should the
patient, however, require cathartic medicine,
after having taken three or four doses of the
Tonic single dose of BULLS VEGETABLE
FAMILY PILLS will be sufficient.

Professor Joseph Balsamo, Of 0tranto,
has just published paper on certain ex-
perimepts of artificial Foundation effected
by him on the cotton plant. The Neopolitan
province of Terra d'OtFaDto has been a
cotton-groRi country from time imme-
mortal but the sorts OF cotton are not the
best, being the Gossypium herbaceum, or
short staple, and the G. Siamense, or hifsu-
tum, which is somewhat better than the
former, but far inferior in length, ineness,
suppleness, and gloss to the G. Barbadense,
commonly called Sea island or long staple.
During the American war, NJ Balsamo
tried various kinds of trans- Atlantic cotton,
aud distributed the seed among the farmers
of his province. Louisiana and New Or
leans cotton throvs well. but Sea island
failed in most cases because its pods open
ia September and October, when antumnal
rains prevail which spoil the down. It
then struck M. BalsamO that perhaps a
hybrid Of he short and long staple might
be obtained, which would ripen iaster and
thus avoid the dangerous season.
He accordingly set TO work, and OBJ
tanned ak hybrids from Gossypium
Siamense, G. Barbadense and G.. reium,
or nankeen; the latter, being coloreds
offering the advantage Of showing, BY is
reddish hue, in what proportion it enters
into the composition OF the hybrid. The
sobIique position Of the stamina rendered It
dificult to cut them OF without letting
part Of the pollen fall on the pistil; never
theless M. Balsamo succeeded in prevent
ing this, AID in bringing the anthera Of Ou-
species into contact With the pistils Of
others preyi@.-sly deprived Of their
stamina. The operation OF Foundation
was effected about noon, as being the most
favorable moment for the emission Of the
pollen. Various circumstances may CON
tribute to failure, such as rain, which will
even prevent natural Foundation; and
high winds, which. BY carrying off a great
part of the pollen, sy reader the opera
ton entirely or partially abOFtive. The
cotton obtained from these hybrids was Of
excellent quality, showing q decided i'm
provement Of interior sorts.

The New York journal of Commerce is
drawing distinction between these. It
says:
Enterprise is not speculation. When
general trade is dull, and hands that have
formerly grasped world OF business are
restless from forced inactivity, the tempta-
ton to engage in transactions Of a specnla-
tive character is very strong, but especially
dangerous. Men who would walk the
streets with nervous tremOr il they thought
there was one chance in thousand OF a
falling brick that would give them pain
full brnise, will rush into schemes where
they peril fortune, not to say their honor,
upon little more than an even chance at
best of winning the success they cOvet.
All this is not only wrong, but would seem
ridiculous If the reckless folly did not in
vOlve such serious consequences 10 the ad-
venluEers themselves, and TO the whole
Community, who must share in the con4mon
suffering.
Bnt WniIe speculation is to be avoided
by all rs both foolish and dangerous, there
Is always room for enterprise, and no day
dawns so darkly that the adVenturer need
to be discouraged If he has the pluck and
energy TO deserve success, The hand Of the
dlligeRt maketh rich; and this result, other
things being equal, is more probable when
the setting out is under an overcast sky
than when the elements seem most ptOpi-
tiouH. The undertaking which is afraid of
any bat the fairest weather Is apt TO depend
too much upon the sunshine of promise,
and does not call forth the labor and pre-
pare for the endurance which are both es-
sential 10 the desired result.
These remarks are not designed to en-
courage the timid 70 engage n the business
from which they are disposed 10 shrink
We are not writing Tor the fearful but for
the enterprising; and we assure these stall
wart souls that there is now q iair chance
for the men who have muscle and patience.

a KNOXVILLE (Tenn.) dispatch says
that bill has just passed the house Of
representatives of that state, repeating the
law extending suffrage to foreigners, after
residence in the state of six months.
This act is caused by the fact that foreign
ers, in Tennessee, have generally voted
the conservative ticket. The radicals
have referred to Tennessee to prove that
their "plan" Of reconstruction is produc-
tive Of the best results. But this act of
the radical legislature of that state, is only
another of the many instances exempify-
ing the determination of that party TO
give the negro political superiority ever
the foreign population Of the south Their
programme is to ultimately disfranchise
all who oppose their nefarious schemes at
the ballot-box; and in this, as in every
other respect, to fetter the conscience Of
the individual. Such Legislation is of the
most dangerous character, tending to de-
stroy the purity of the ballot box, and the
subversion of free government. The
same purposes that are sought to be attain
ed by the Tennessee house of representa-
tives arc those of the radical party, and
wherever they have the power, they will
endcavor to accomplish them
