Twenty years ago, when paint, pearl powder
and enamel were running the compilations and
destroying the health of women of fashion, Ha-
gan's Magnolia Balm was brought out as q pure
botanical cosmetic, guaranteed to restore bloom
and beauty to the skin. From that time to the
present it has been continually rising in public
estimation as the safest and most unexceptona-
bic preparation OF its class. Instead of produc-
ing an artificial, metallic surface like the deadly
enamels or willing the cuticle like the poison
Gus fluids sold under various names as "beauti-
fers" it keeps the skin as soft as velvet renders
it as smooth and glossy as satin and imparts to
ideal of complexional loveliness. This exqui-
site chromatic effect is not transient. By APP
plying the Balm daily it may be prolonged from
youth to age. A lady who purchased the first
bottle OF the article nineteen years ago, writes
to say that her complexion at forty is "purer,
clearer and more brilliant than il has ever
BEEN, and she attributes its beauty solely to
the daily use OF Hagan's Magnolia Balm,

Can't Agree.

The convention of railroad officers of the
Great Southern Mail Route lately held at Rich
mond agreed upon new schedule for passen-

should take effect. We learn now that the SUI
perintendents can not agree. The roads East
want faster schedule than agreed on, and the
roads West think it as fast as practicable to
make connections. It. therefore, is possible
that change will be indefinitely postponed.

The cattle market has manifested considerable
more activity during the week than for some
time past, and whilst we note an advance of
half q cent on the price, we cannot refrain from
speaking of the marked improvement of the
received during the week may be classed as ex-
ira, while not few will pass for No. l in
any market III the country. Several car
loads have already gone and others
are ready for shipment The largest shipments
have been made by our enterprising young
friends, Messrs. FAM s. Jones, and from an ex-
animation of several lots Of their cattle, we be-
speak for them good profit on their invest
ment. The receipts for the past week amount
to III head, at an aggregate gross weight Of
1895 pounds. We quote as follows, from ac-
tual sales
No. fat cattle, 4ta4!c; good beef cattle,
3la4c.; ordinary cattle, 2!a34c. A choice lot
was sold as high as &C., but it was an extra
fine lot.
The approach of warm weather has caused a
decline in hogs, and the demand now is very
limited at quotations. But few have been re-
ceived during the week, and we do not expect
any more shipments this season.

Small fat hogs, 8.
SHEEP,
The supply of sheep is fully equal to the de-
mand, with an unsettled market.

The demand for hay continues unprecedently
good, while the supply is short Since our last

quote at $3.50 per cwt.
