They have two presses--a Gorten jobber new, and Washington imperial No. 5. with an almost new job office.

Having had indubitabic evidence of its prompt and certain effects from the testimo- ny of a multitude of respectable citizens among whom are classed some of our best physicians, we do not hesitate to recommend this Preparation in all cases of Fever and Ague and Chlls and Fever: indeed, from the facts u our possession of it's intrinsic value, it would not be too much fer us to state that when the directions are strictly compiled with we warrant q cure in every case where it is tried. lt is pleasant to the taste. and Che cheapest medicine in the world. There fore, in truth, it may he declared the day is not far distant when il must be appreciated aud used in every household where Fever and Ague or Chills and Fever is found to exist.
 The wonderful operation of the Texas Ten ic Syrup in neu,ralizing the effects of nala- rious poison in the human system. can only explain it's extraordinary agency in the speedy. thorough md permanent cure ot Chlls and Fever or Favep and Ague, and all their kindred diseases, ia whatever form Of Bilious Complaints they nay make their ap- pearance.
 As its name imports, it s Tonic of rare and medicinal virtues, composed of pure and harmless ingredients, and are so united as to form a compound alike skillful in art. bean tiful in appearance, and can be taken with safety to the most delicate constitutions. It is tho resait of q lifetime of experience and practice in | Southern climate. anl Tas sey- CT known to fail. even where all othe rene dies had been tried in vain.
 Those who are uuaequainted with the ex- traordinary properties Of this home produc ton. manufactured from Roots and Plants indigenous to the soil of our sunny South, y (and hence adapted to the cure of Southern climatic diseases) are respectfully referred to the certificates of respectable citizens whose names are embraced in pamphlet which accompanies each be;tle; also the en- dorsements of the press in all the Southern States, indicating the many thousand cures already performed by our justly celebrated Texas Tonie Syrup.
 The reports fro.n hundreds of Druggists, Merchants aud Dealers, from all parts of the country, are uniform in stating the medicine is safe. certain and reliable, as n substitute for Quininc and the poisonous compounds heretofore generally sold. and is rapidly supplani ing everything Of this class.
 As q home enterprise it especially com mends itself to the people of this section Of the country, who are now struggling in an effort to do away with old prejuaices in favor of foreign produce, and may we not hope foreign "Quack Nostrums. the proprietors of which. in most cases, arc governed by no- thing but merccnary motives, know nothing of the properties of Mcdicinai Agents, and care nothing for our interests, except to en- lice our people into tue use of their vile mixtures.

 We learn from reliable authority that party of about fifteen men in disguise went to the house of a citizen of this county, about ten miles south west of this place, in the night and called him out and whipped him se- vercly. We suppress the name of the party whipped on account of the res probability of the family connections, as good as is in the county. We learn that the cause of the affair was that this man had occasionally whipped his wife. and treated her harshly for some time. They exactcd a promise from him that he would treat his wife well. They also made him carry mule and about twenty barrels of corn to ne- gro, from whom, they charged, this man had unfairly acquired the pro- perty.
