Died, at ilia resi- Ierce of his brother. near
Greenwood, louis ana, on Fridav morning
2S.h Of )ct., 1870 Capt LUcIAN FLoUENov,
aged about "a years.
The deceased was son Of Silas ans Liz
re FIournoy, who remove ed from this plaee
many years ago, and although henever re-
sided in this community, he had many ae-
quaintanccs and friends Who admired ard
loved him for the many % bic qualities oi
his head and heart. His father died in his
boyhood, and his mother before lie arrived
at the age OF manhood, leaving two sisters
and a younger brother, for whose education
and training he manifested all the solicitUac
of father; and even before he reached his
majority seemed impressed with the respoa
sibi!ity of his charge and the necessity Of
an exemplary life on bis part. The writer
has never known young man who so carly
assumed the Thoughtful, stpid sobrietv Of
mature years, or had Tower youthful iudis-
cretions to regret.
Educated ut the military school iD Ken
tucky, patriotic and chiyalrorts, he rcspon-
ded to the first call for troops to defend the
South, and served with distinction until the
war. At one time he served on the staff Of
Gen. McCruder.
Endowed by nature with more than OF
binary capacity educated, courteous and
wal m hearted, he was i favoritc with all
who knew him. Cut down in the prime Of
life, We can but lament his early removal
Seldom Eas it been tie lot of friepds and
relatives to mourn for one more worthy OF
admiration and love. Although he had de-
forred, as we are all prone to do, Intending
to what should be the chief aim of life
he eft satisfactory assurances of
his PREPARATION for heath. He was
impressed from the first attack that he would
not recover-was entirely submissive-s said
he more than willing to die-that he
was being taken when he was best prepared
that he felt he was ready to meet his God &.

DIVULGE FER SECRET

bre shades of night began to close around
her tottering frame, she impaired this great
secret to this friend.
She too gained quito reputation for re-
lieving the suffering of her sex. and strange
it may ppear-she scarcely ever failed to

that had resisted all ordinary modes of
treatment. Many years ago, the writer of

ing the secret Of this wonderful vegetable
Regulator, which had never been known to

ENGLISH FEMALE BITTERs.

The Medical Profession at large have long
felt the need oil Just such a medicine, cOnse-
quently it is not strange that they so eagarly
prescribe and recommend these Bitters to
their female patients.
Ifyou could see the pile of smiling ap-
prevails and encomiums from physicians
and the public who have cured their wives,
their daughters and their trends by the use
of these Bitters, no siekly female would hes
itate to use them. This Female Regulator
is adapted for old, young. married or single
fem ales, who are affected with acute or
chronic forms of Uterine arrangements
They cure painful, suppressed, scanty, pro-
fuse or irregular Menstruation, Chlorcsis or
Green Sickness, Flunr Albus or Whites,
Mysteries, Falling of the Womb, pain in the
side, back or loins, sick Headache, palpita-
