KosKo0. This medicine is rapidly
gaining the confidence of thepeople, and
the numerous testimonials of its virtues,
given by practitioners of medicines,
leave no doubt that it is a safe and re-
liable remedy for MPURITY OF THE BLOOD,
that speaks in hig terms of its curative
properties, and give q special recon-
mendation of Koskoo to the practitioners
of medicine. This is, we belieye, the first
instance where such medicines have been
officially Endorsed by the faculty of any
of the medical colleges, and reflects great
credit upon the skill of DIR. Lawrence,
its compounder, and also puts Koskoo "
in the yAN of all other medicines of the
present day.-From the Norfolk Daily
Journal, December IL, 1869. 2-t

The boats in our line will not receipt for
freight beyond DeVall's Bluff, where our
liabilities as common carriers must
cease. Heretofore the Memphis and Lit
tie Rock railroad, through their agent
Mr.. Parker, has held our boats respon-
sible for all losses and damages, some of
which, no doubt, was caused by our
boats, and some in the transfer of the
freight from Duvalls Bluff to Little
Rock. The custom of the agent, at the
Bluff, in taking exceptions to freight in
boxes not strapped, such as oysters, can
dies fruits, ETC., has caused us consider
able loss, and is, we think, sufficient
reason for this notice,

manufacturers Of this beautiful boot II com
bines all the utility of the sewed boot with the
ton is in this wise; instead of pegs, peculiar
shaped brass screw is driven into the sole when
damp, and smoothly and securely clinched,
thus holding the soles and nppers together so
tight that they can never rip or give way.
They have all the sm0othness and elasticity of
the sewed boot. and none of the disadyan-
tages attaching to the pegged boot. We sell
them at price but trihe more than that of
the pegged boots; thus we furnish you with
something that is indeed economical. We
have fresh stock of all kinds Of Boots and
Shoes for ladies, gents, misses and children
also fine line Of shoe ornaments, which we
will sell at wholesale and retail.
