Mr. McKELvEY: Dear Sir-Your Life Com
pound is working wonders in this section, and
have every reason to be thankful for what it
has accomplished in my own case and that Of
my wife. My complaint, as you may remem-
Der, was Liver Disease in its worst form. had
not taKen your medicine more than three weeks
when felt so much encouraged as to order a
box for my wife also. who was suffering from
what the physicians termed disease of the kids
neys. This was in November last. We have
now taken two packages each, and am happy
to inform you that we have good reason to con-
cI ude we are both permantly restored to health
and that, by your Life Compound. Encouraged
by its good effects in our cases, several of our
afflicted neighbors sent to you for the medicine
aud am informed by three of them, with whom
l am intimately acquainted, that they, too, be
lievc themselves entirely cdred by it,
You may make such use ST this statement as
you may deem proper.
With gratitude,
Rev. B. r. GORMLY.

In Dyspepsia it is a certain cure.
In CONSUMPTION it is excellent.
In Liver Complaint nothing can be
better.
In Kidney disease it is specific,
In Rhuematism it is an important
remedy.
In Stomach Affections it is unsurpas-
sed
In Female Complaints it is of great
valve.
And in nearly all kinds Of chronic disease
acts like charm, effectng speedy cures in
the most stubborn cases.
The afflicted everywhere should not fail to
give it trial, if they desire to purchase health
with but tIifling expense. 1t is not "patent
medicine" nor is it kept for sale by any drug>
gist. 1t is discovery of physician during
Eve years sojourn in South America. and he
aas impaired the secret of its composition to
hundreds of intelligent physicians, who have
all used it in their practice with the most won>
derfu results.
In consideration Of its many virtues, have
thought it my duty to engage in the manufac
ture of it on large scale, and advertise it ex>
tensively throughout the world. The method
for preparing it for use is somewhat complex
requiring q numerous collection of chemical
tools paraphernalia not usually possessed by
druggists, and for this reason few drug stores
could furnish it properly prepared, if they had
the formula. Therefore, have purchased the
necessary articles, and with the assistance of a
good practical chemist am engaged in its man
ufacture and sale.
The "Life Compound" is purely vegetable, its
principal ingredient being obtained from the
root of plant which grows abuudantly in some
parts of South America. 1t is perfectly harm
less in its effects even if taken in triple the
ordinary dose, willis its invigorating influence
IS wonderful indeed, often effecting PERMA-
NENr cure in few weeks. Read the following

CINcINNATI, Aug, Is, 1867,


Mr.. McKELvEY: Sir-A thing of beauty is a
roy forever, and a good medicine is more than
this. take pleasure in commencing your Life
Compound, not so much on account Of what it
has done for me, as wa, it may be the means of
doing for thousands of others.
To the sick and suffering, therefore, wish,
through your advertisement to say few words
of encouragement. One year ago was an in
valid; am now hearty and we'll. My disease
was dyspepsia Of TEN years standing; l had
tried all means l knew of for cure, without
avail until about the first of September last
became acquainted with young man who told
me of Mr.. McKelvey's remedy, and the good
work it had done in the neighborhood of his
former home (Ere, Pa.) l Immediately applied
to Mr.. M. for box of his Life Compound and
commenced taking it. commenced improving
in few day and continued to improve, and in
less than three months from that time was en-
tirely restored, and have remained well ever
since. Mine was rather an inveterate case, and
pronounced so by all the physicians Of this city.
The medicine was so successful in my case, that
I cannot refrain from adding my testimony in
its favor.

ton; but that when completed to Macon it

cost OF grading at $500, 1000, including bridges,
and the who,c cos.of completing at 5000 900.
Alderman Gardner tackled Judge King with
reFeren ,e 70 the charge that the City Council

Cousttutlonallst calls 90 decidedly vigorous
cxcoriation." motion was adopted that the
offer OF Hull, Sherman & Co., 10 complete tho
road, will not be accepted; and 4 motion was
adopted that Judge King bs notified that Coun-
Gil will approve the issue OF s5O0,OO0 in bonds

oorsed--by the City Council Of Macon, the

A Card,

The committee who were in charge Of the
arragements for the Yolksfest. recently held at
the Schuetzenplatz, return thanks to the pub
lie for their liberal and hearty support. They
feel that the success Of the celebration was
due more to the kindness of the public
than to their own merits, and hope that any
omissions on their part will be generously
overlooked. The number Of gifts presented to
the committee to be awarded as prizes was 80
great that it was impossible to dispose of
them all in that way during the volksfest, and
some, consequently, still remain IN the hands
of the committee to be shot for at such time
and place as the Schuetzsn Geselsohaft may
hereafter direct. The COMMITTEE.

Alderman Collins asked if the gentleman
alderman T. J. Mackey) was Mayor, or Mr..
Pilsbury. y.
Alderman T. J.. Mackey said in due time he
would notice the insolence Of the Alderman.
Alderman Cunningham requested The clerk
to read the proceedings Of the lass Council, to
see if they were permanently adopted or not.

Alderm IN McKinlay said he had offered the
resolution that the rules Of the old board
should be adopted, and said they were perma-
nently adopted.
Alderman Collins. Under such an under
standing voted for them.

men might be mistaken. He did not think
they were permanently adopted.
Alderman L. F. Wall was sure that there
was no such word as permanent" there.
Alderman +. j. Mackey insisted on his az
peal, which he said had been seconded.
The Mayor said the appeal must le over.
Alderma Barrow called the question, and
Mayor was not sustained.
Alderman Collins said he hoped the Mayor
would not yield until he had consulted legal
authority.
Alderman T. J. Mackey said if he could not
decide, the question would be how far his
opinion would go. He said he held in his hand
resolution in the interest Of good govern
ment against corruption, and that he would
discharge his duty with all due respect to the
presiding officer. He read the resolution
