attended in their youth, lived to the age of
eighty-seven; one sister died at ninety-three;
another at ninety-one; one at seventy-eight,

No PILL IN THE WORLD ever had any
thing like the circulation of AYERS PILLS.
Throughout these States, Mexico, and the
Central American republic, down the slopes
of the Andes, and across the pampas of
South America, in negro villages, and the
fervid wilds of Africa, throughout the
jungles of India, and the steppes ofinterior
Asia, over the continent of Australia, and
the islands of the Pacific, these PILLS are
known and everywhere used as family
remedies for diseases. With distant ma
tions, their wonderful cures attract more
attention than at home; for the senti-
ment of wonder takes far deeper hold on
their minds than the results of a higher
scientific skill with us. The amount con-
sumed require seventy-five thousand doses
a day to supply it. An inspection of the
mandatory showed us how this enormous
demand is made and sustained. Added to
the consumate skill OF their composition,
is an extreme care in their manufacture,
which at once secures the most perfect ma
terial and their most accurate combina-
ton. The consequence is a power and GER
tainty in controlling disease which other
remedies never attained. = Baltimore
Courier.

our best efforts to furnish a reliable.

patrons use little effort, in our behalf,
and secure at least one additional name,
which will give us an enviable circu-

al improvements, which will result in
mutual benefit to our readers and our
selves. We intend to double our cir
eulation, if honest, persistent effort
can accomplish this desirable object.

In consequence of the prevalence Of
cholera in Nashville, Mayor Harris, in
response to an expressed wish of our
citizens, convened the City Council on
Tuesday evening last. to take counsel
with the physicians of the city as to
what further preventive means, if any,
should be resorted to.
There were present at this meeting,
some Of the best medical talent in the
city, who after consultation, report =
list That SO far, there has been no
cholera in the city. End. That in con-
sequence Of the natural drainage of
the city, the general use of, and purity
of cistern water, visitation of this
disease is hardly probable, and even
if it should come, it will most likely
be in a mild form, but in order to avert
the disease and enhance the general
health of the city, they pointed out
the generally neglected condition OF
sinks and privies. The accumulated
filth of which is always an exciting
cause of disease and often provokes
the worst forms of epidemics. There
fore they recommended to the Board,
not to undertake to have the same
cleansed now, but let them remain and
kill the pernicious effects by free use
of such disinfectants as dry earth,
lime, &c.
The Board then instructed the City
Marshal, to visit in person, the various
premises in the city, and force this
regulation.

WE are pleased to see that the views
of our friend, Mr.. George I. Lewis,
on the manufacture of iron in the
South, figured SO conspicuouslyin the
Governors Convention at Atlanta
That those views are ably set forth and
triumphantly sustained, by facts and
figures. is clearly attested by their sue
cessful defiance ofadverse criticism, the
jeers of interested competitors and
the cold indifference of bonded capital.
We republish,, as a part of the pro-
ceedings of that Convention, so much
of these views as ought to stimulate
southern enterprise to the prompt de-
velopment of the iron interest Of the
South, and which is second to no other
in its promise of wealth and prosperity
to the entire section.

II it sometimes asked why farmers
are making an ado, about high railroad
freight charges? Some of the reasons
are-that they have palace sleeping
cars, for which freight must pay; they
have $4,000 railroad presidents and
many other officers paid in proportion;
they have lobbyists at high salaries, to
corrupt federal and State legislatures;
they have some careless. or drunken
engineers who smash things generally
and for these losses, freight must pay,
as well as for the princely extravaganza
common to monopolies which make
their money easy, off the labor of the
producing classes. When railroads
are forced to economic, freights will
be lowered, and it will not take two
bushels of corn to get one to market.
These are few of the grounds of COM
plant.

"OUT OF THE SHADOW Having
an aversion to continued stories, we
have postponed saying anything about
"Out of the Shadow" by :" Emeldee, F"
which was concluded in the Tobacco
Leaf, of the 18th inst. The gifted au-
thor has sustained herself throughout,
presenting a novel with interesting and
and well sustained characters, which
should place her name among those
of the best literary writer's of the
present day. We are glad to know
that our city can boast of being
the home of lady possessing such fine
literary attachments as the story just
concluded clearly indicates.

.What the Chronicle Knows About

FINE WHEAT.-Mr. HI. Westenber-
ger, showed us specimen of his wheat
grown in the suburbs of the city, the
stalks measuring7 q feet in length, hav-
ing long heads Of plump wheat. Who
can beat it?-ChronicIe.
Mr.. Westenberger has a rare fund
of good humOr about him, and he pull
ed the wool over our neighbour eyes
beautifully. That fine wheat was rye,
nighbors, and if you were to furnish
your family with -four made of that
wheat, you would be guilty of rye -otous
living.-LeGf.
We like witty things, and thought we
would give Doak a chance to try his
hand, as he was spelling for an oppor-
tunity. Now when we practice as long
at the bar and sample as much old Rye
as he has, we may be guilty of rye
otous living"

FARMERS complain that they are
taxed beyond their ability to pay. If
their fields could speak, would they
not make similar complaint? The
government makes no return for its
oppressive exactions, and the farmer
makes no return to his fields to COM
pensate for the heavy demands made
upon them. The government impov-
erishes the farmer and the farmer
impoverishes his land. There is re.
medy for both and that remedy is in
the hands of the farmers.

THE " Patrons of Husbandry' are
organizing Oranges, in Middle Tennes-
see, but we have heard of no move
ment in that direction, in this county.
We wish every farmer, in the whole
country, were member of a organic
ton that seeks the elevation of labor
to its true dignity, the government to
its original integrity and the limitation
Of its powers within its original charter,
the overthrow of oppressive and cor
rupt monopolies and the elevation of
public virtue and popular education.
The farmers and mechanics can do
these things, but not without organic
alton based upon unity of purpose and
interest and fixed determination to up
root the evils which depress their pros
perity and debase their standing in the
scale of citizenship. Instead of fuss
ing and Tuning about funding and an
ti-funding, convention or no con-
yention, it would be wiser to pre-
pare themselves for sef-govern-
ment and for taking into their
own hands-as they can do-all the
agencies by which they are misgovern-
ed and made the tools of designing
demagogues. As the supporters of life
and commerce, of art and science, they
seem yet content to do the dirty work
of politicians and the drudgery of the
woodland all for scanty pittance of
their own earnings, with no credit for
patient endurance and no pity for their
ignorance of their rights and power
and interests. Let farmers and me-
chanics open their eyes to the lights of
experience, expand their minds by re-
Election and reading, combine for mu
tual protection and, our word for it,
the happiest results will follow.
