In ORDER TO CLOSE the entire stock of
Clothing suitable for Children 8 to years of
age, we shall make A REDUCTION OF 25 PER
Gent. on THE DOLLAR from the marked
prices. This will bring IS all wool suits TO
t8.75, and so on.
Bear In mind we only make this reduction
until we remove to our old stand, and on
Children's Clothing only. We shall deduct
10 per cent. on all other goods until the
above time.
This may seem incredible to those who
know how we have marked down our goods
In the past thirty days. II must be done, as
we intend carrying no goods over. One

Tho Election in Alabama.

The following dispatch was received yes
Selma-The election passed Of quietly.
The reports from the several precincts show
q considerable falling of from the vote Of
last year. The vote In this city resulted as
follows, Buck, Republican, 2,03s Mann,
Democrat, 511. Republican loss, 5ll; DEM
ocratlc loss, 1872. Union preclnct-Mann,
Democrat, SO; Buck, Republican, none.
Moblle-Manu's, Democrat, majority In
Mobile county, as far rs heard from, ID |, 459.
There are several precincts to hear from.
The county will probably give 800 major
ity for Mann, Democrat.
At the courthouse at Baldwin, negro
Radical mob took possession Of the polls,
beat one white man badly, and prevented
any Democratic negroes from voting. They
were very riotous. The sheriff could not
control them. That precinct gives Buck,
Republican, 800 majority.
Pollard, the county town OF Escambia
county, gives Mann, Democrat, 100 ma
jority.
Claiyorne, Monroe county, at 4 p. m. had
polled 8S3 votes, all for Mann.
| The indications are that Mann, the Dem
ocratic candidate for Cangress from the first
district 10 elected by 800 majority.
Montgomery--Election news is meagro as
far as heard from.
The vote Is much less than last year. The
probabilities are In favor Of the election OF
Parkinson, Democrat, In the third district
by handsome majority.
The contest between Wortley, Democrat
and Buckly, Republican, In tho second dis
trict, will be much closer than was expected
and the latter's friends are fearful Of his de
feat on account OF great falling of Of tn,
negro vote.

YER'S SARSAPARILLA,
FOR PURIFYING THE o0D,

The reputation this excellent medicine enjoys,
is derived from its cures, many of which truly
marvellous. lnVeterate cases of Ser0tuOus dis
case, where the system seemed saturated with
corruption, havo been purified and cured by it.
Scrotuous affections and disorders, which
aggravated by the scrofulous contamination until
they were painfully affecting, have been radical
ly cured in such great numbers in almost every
section OF the country, that the public scarcely
need to be informed of its virtues or uses
Scrofulods poison is one of the most destructive
enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and un-
felt tenant of the organism undermines the con-
sttution, and invites the attack of enfeebling or
fatal diseases, without exciting suspicion of its
presence. Again, it seems TO breed infection
throughout the body, and then, on some fayora-
bic occasion, rapidly develops into one or other of
its hideous forms, either on the surface or among
the vitals. In the latter, tuheroles may be sud-
denly deposited in the lungs or heart, or tumors
formed In the liver or it shows its presence by g.
ruptions on the skin, or foul uleerations on some
part of the body. Hence the occasional use of a
bottle of this Sarsaparlla is advisable even when
no active symptoms Of disease appear. Persons
afflicted with the following complaints generally
find Immediate relief, and at length, cure, by the
use OF this Sarsaparilla ST. Anthony's Fire Rose
or Erysipelas, letter, Salt Rheum, Scald Head
Ringworm, Sore Eyes, Sore Ears, and other erup-
tions or visible forms of S7rofulous disease Also
in the more concealed FORMS as Dyspepsia Drop-
sy, Heart Disease, Fits Epilepsy, Neuralgia, and
the various Ulcerous affections Of the muscular
and nervous systems,
Syphilis or Venereal and Merourial Diseases are
cured by it, though long time is required for
subduing these obstinate malades by any medi-
cine. But long continued use of this medicine
Will cure the complaint, Leucorrhoea or W 1ites
Uterine Ulcerations, and Female Diseases. are
commonly soon relieved and ultimately cured by
its purifying and invigorating effect. Minute Di-
rections for each case are found in our Almanac,
supplied gratis. Rheumatism and Gout, when
caused by aeoumulattons of extraneous matters in
the blood, yield quickly to it, as also Liver Com
plants, Torpidity, Congestion or Inflammation OF
the Liver, and Jaundiee, when arising, they Of
ten do, from the ranking pOisons in the blood.
This SARSAPARILLA IS a great restorer for the
strength and vigor of the system. Those who are
Languid and Listless, Despondent, Sleepless, and
troubled with Nervous Apprehensions or Fears,
or any OF the affections symptomatic of Weakness,
will find Immediate relief and convincing evil

4 YER's CATHARTIC PILLS,
For all the purposes of a Laxative Medicine,

N
For all the purposes of Laxative Medicine
Perhaps no one Medicine is so universally re-
quired by everybody n catharte, nor ever
any before so universally adopted into use, in ev-
cry country and among all classes, as this mild
but efficient purgative Pill The obvious reason
Is, that it IS more reliable and far ehectual
remedy than any other. Those who have,tried it,
know that it cured them those who have not
know that it cures their neighbors and friends,
and all know that what 1t does once it does always
that it never fails through any fault or neglect
of its composition We have thousands upon thou
sands of certificates of their remarkable cures of
the following complaints, but such cures are known
in every neighborhOod and we need not publish
them. Adapted to all ages and conditions in all
climates; containing neither calomel or any dele
terious drug, they may be taken with safety by
anybody Their sugar coating preserves them ev-
er fresh and makes them pleasant to take, while
being purely vegetable no harm can arise from
their use in any quantity.
They operate by their powerful influence on the
internal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate
1t into healthy action-remoye the Obstructions of
the stomach, bowels liver and other organs of the
body, restoring their irregular action to health,
and by correcting, wherever they exist, such
arrangements as are the first origin of disease.
Minute directions are given in the wrapper on
the box, for the following complaints, which these
Pills rapidly cure
For DYSPEPSIA or INDIGESTION, LIsTLEssNEss,
LANGUoR and Loss of Appetite, they should be
taken moderately to stimulate the stomach and
restore its healthy tone and action.
For LIVER COMPLAINT and its various symptoms,
BILIOUS HEADACHE, Sick HEADACHE, JAUNDIcE
or Green SICKNESS, Bilious Collie and Bilious Fe-
vers, they should be judiciously taken for each
case, to correct the diseased action or remove the
distractions which cause it.
For DYsENTERY or DIARRHGA, but one mild
dose is generally required.
For RHEUMATISM, GoUT, GRAVEL, PALPIFATI0S
OF TIE HEART, PAIN IN THE SIDE, BACK and
LoINs, they should be continuously taken, as re-
quired, to change the diseased action of the sys-
TEN. With such change those complaints dsap-
pear.
For DRoPsY and DRoPsIcAL SwELLINGs they
should be taken in large and frequent doses to
produce the effect of drastic purge.
For SUPPRESSION large dose should be taken
as it produces the desired effect by sympathy.
As DINNER PILL, take one or two pills to pro-
mote digestion and relieve the stomach.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels into healthy action, restores the appetite
and invigorates the system Hence it is often ad-
vantageous where serious arrangement exists.
One who feels toerably we'll, often finds that dose
Of these PILLS makes him feel decidedly better,
from their cleansing and renovating effect on the
digestive apparatus.
