ROUTES TO NASHVILLE.

The competition between the various
routes for the transportation of delegates
to and from the Judicial Convention, and
the disappointment of many in not being
able to return home as Dol as they IN
ticipated, has called public attention to
the advantages and disadvantages of the
differnt routes. Our readers who may
have occasion to travel between the com
mereial metropolis and the capital of the
State, have the choice of three different
routes; and that they may choose intelli-
gently, we publish below a condensed
timetable by each route, also the dis
tanee and the time occupied by each.
These tables are compiled from official
sources, and can be relied ON as correct In
every particular: 1a

READER, If you have a sick horse, do
not dose him with Condition Powders
containing antimony, which is just as
useless andiujurions TO him as is the con-
stantly swallowing of poisonous com
pounds To the human system. 1t is more
humane TO knock a horse on the head at
once than 10 kill him by inches through
the action of anthony, which sccumu-
lates in the system, and thus D n or
later produces death by antimonitlpoison-
ing. Remember, reader, there is nc anti
mony, nor any other poison in The
+" Equine Condition PoWders.p Their ac-
ton, under all circumstances, is physio-
logical; therefore they can be safely used
in all forms of disease {wbsther acute or
chroDic) with decided benefit to afflicted
animals.
