Ayers Cherry Pectoral,
For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and ConsumDtion.

Probably never before in the whole history of
medicine, has any thing won SO widely and SO
deeply upon the confidence Of mankind, as this
excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints.
Through n long series of years, and among most
of the races of men 1t has risen higher and higher
in their estimation, as ithas become better known.
Its uniform character and power to cure the va
rious affections of the lungs and throat, have
made 1t known as n reliable protector against
them. While adapted to milder forms of disease
and to young children, 1t is ut the same time the
most cffcctua remedy that can be given for incip.
lent consumption, and the dangerous affections
of the throat and lungs. As provision against
sudden attacks of Group, it should be kept on
hand in every family and indeed as all are some
times subject to colds and coughs, all should be
provided with this antidote for them.
Although settled COnSunI ptiOn Is thought in.
durable, still great numbers Of cases where the
disease seemed settled, have been completely
cured, and the patient restored TO sound health
by the Cherry PectOrdt. So complete is its
mastery over the disorders of the Lungs and
Throat that the most obstinate of them yield to it,.
When nothing else could reach them, under the
Cherry PectOrdL they subside and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers find great
protection from it,
AsthmG is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
Bronchitis is generally cured by taking the
Cherry PecfOr0I in small and frequent doses.
So generally are its virtues known, that We
need not publish the certificates of them here or
do more than assure the public that its qualities
arc fully maintained.

State. Cotton, Ssitis. true, is backyard
and looks, poor, and area planted in Geor-
gia fully fifteen percent. less than Of last
year. But it is too early to predict a
failure to any extent ofthat crop. The
prices ruling now have given planters re-
newed hope and energy, and the prospect
is very good for the next spring season
opening at eighteen to twenty. cents
The smaller crop will then bring
"a larger total sum than the large
crop Of last season. In addition to the
reasons given above, as the prospects
ahead Qfus is the fact as we learn from
the cotton factors in our city, that plant
ers,. as q Glass;, have not asked for half
the amount of advances this season that
they required last year, they have man
aged with less than half they bought in
1870, and that half, has been purchased
at fully a. third less rate than paid last
year. With an abundance of home
raised provisions, comparatively small
advances to liquidate, and the prospects
of getting fair price for their cotton,
they have cause to look forward with the
hope of better days.-Aug,ssta Co''stitu-

Brighter Prospects.

At no time since the termination of the
war between the States have the pros
prospects of the future. appeared more
promising for our people than at this
time. The feyerish excitement conse-
quent of the overthrow. of our laborsystem
and the destruction of property values,
which bred rashness of risking every
thing to retrieve, have given place to
calm and calculating plans. Many men
who left their plantations for cities, to
embark in commercial ventures, have re-
turned to their first love. Many. plant.
ers, who have been overeropping for the
past years, depending upon luck for sue
cess, have. this season wisely laid their
plans according to- their means. From
every portion Of our State the gratifying
information reaches us that an abundant
corn and provision crop will be made
The fruit crop is bountiful one, and will
bring a large sum Of money into ths
