ABBEVILLE S: G., WEDNESDAY, JULY %, 1874
TOMORROW.

Dreaming in the golden twilight,
Sits maiden young and fair,
While the shadows slowly lengthen,
Building castles in the air;
Dreaming of the coming morrow,
Brightest day in her bright life
All her love and trust reWarding
In the holy title-wife.
Dreaming sits widowed mother,
Aged not by time, but care;
Like the maiden, she Is busy
Building castles in the air;
Dreaming of the coming morrow -.
Day long looked for, now 80 near
And she murmurs, "Ere another
Sunset Charlie will be here"
Dreaming sits student lonely
In his attic, mean and bare;
Though man, he, too, is building
Building castles in the air;
Dreaming of the coming morrow,
And the contest for the prize;
"What though others strive, care not,
Mine it is," he proudly cries.
Dreaming sits soldier youthful,
In his hand tress of hair;
Gazing on it he is building
Building castles in the air;
Dreaming of the coming morrow,
When, the din of battle DER,
to her who gave it,
. He'll return to part no more.
Tomorrow cometh, and the maiden,
Lonely for false love weeps;
Ubi]o tho uidowad n1other,s darling
Meath the blue wave soundly sleeps
The student, disappointed, sees ;,
The prize snatched by another's hand;
The soldier, in the battle slain,
Fills grave in far off land.

BAD BLOOD

IA corrupt tree" saith the Inspired
volume, "bringeth forth not good fruit,'
nor can corrupt blood impart health,
beauty and good flesh, or spirits. "The
Blood is the Life" and health can only
be enjoyed in its full perfection where
the blood is kept in pure and uncor-
rupted state, hence the necessity of pure
blood, to give health, beauty, buoyant
spirits, long life and happiness.
An impure condition of the blood,
nanifests itself in different forms OF
diseases, such as letter, Salt Rheum,
Scald-head, Ring Worms, Pimples, Boils
Blotches, Spots, Eruptions, Pustules,
Carbuncles, Sore Eyes, Rough Skin,
Scurf, Scrofulas Sores and Swellings,
Fever Sores, White Swellings, Tu-
mors, Old Sores or Swellings, Syphilitlcc
Affections of the Skin, Throat and
Bones, Ulcers of the Liver, Stomach,
Kidneys, Lungs and Uterus.
In this condition of things something
is needed at once to cleanse the blood,
and neutralize the insiduous poison that
BURNS LIKE A TERRIBLE FIRE
as it courses through the veins, sowing
seeds of death with every pulsation.
DIR. Pemberton's Compound Extract
of Stillingia, Tor Queen Delight will
positively effect this disideratum, expel-
ling every trace of disease from f, t. the a.;
SOFT, FAIR AND BEAUTIFUL.
For all diseases of the blood, livers
and kidneys, the Great Vegetable AL
terative is without rival. It will cure
any chronic or long standing disease
whose real or direct cause is bad blood.
Rheumatism, pains in limbs or bones,
broken down by Mercurial
or other poisons, are all cured by it.
For Syphilis, Syphilictic Taint, there is
nothing equal to it. A trial will prove
it. 1t is most useful Spring and Fall
Purifier of the Blood.
Its safety and innocence have been
fully ted, so that it may be administered
to the most tender infant.

Jefferson Davis on Direct Trade.

Mr.. Davis in q recent speech deliv-
cred at Memphis, eschews politics
altogether and deyotes himself to-
urging the establishment of direct:
trade between New Orleans and Liy-.
erpool or London. During recent
visit to Europe he had conferences
with leading English statesmen, mer-
chants and bankers, and found them
ready to inaugurate the enterprise by
FURNISHING three-fourths Of the res
quired capital. Hesays: &
ga steamship line must be establish
ed, and the people here must own
one-fourth Of the property. If We
do not demonstrate our earnestness
Of faith by risking one-fourth as
much as our English friends, the line
perhaps will never be established.
Trade runs in very deep grooves, and
it's habits are changed with the great
est difficulty. Mr.. Davis thinks the
steamship line will be most profitable,
and it's route across the ocean, which
he has pursued, was safest and most
delightful. He had drifted with the.
gulf stream off Cape Hatteras, off the
Grand Banks, and thence to Albion's
cliff of chalk, and, returning, had
drifted with the same balmy summer
of the sea by the Azores and West,
Indies, going out Of the gulf OF Mex
leo on the northern, and returning
on the southern side of Cuba. There
lis every: advantage of comfort and
security in following the southern or.
gulf stream route in both directions
across the Atlantic. Since Mr.. Davis
return to Memphis, four or five days
ago, he has received letters assuring
him that the light-draft streamers
will probably +. built, and direct
trade with this valley inaugurated.'
'.Mr. Davis said that the people of
this country might rely implicitly
upon every statement and every as
surance given by the Mississippi Val.
ley Society of London. It would
promote trade by lessening the cost
of conducting it; but it is no trading
company; it "has no axe to grind !"
and, therefore, is amost reliable conn.,,
selor. The dream of Mr.. Davis has.
been the establishment of direct
trade between this valley and cities
of the Old World. Mr.. Davis had
said this to the President of the Lon
don Society. "Do you doubt that it
will be done" he asked. "No,,'
answered Mr.. Davis; "you can
achieve this consummation and win
the undying gratitude of my coun-
trymen." "rhe time will come,"
continued tho speaker, "when these
ends will be achieved, and when sthe
West and South, richest among the
nations, like the Indies, will enrich
the nations"

digestion and Torpidity of the Liver,

dice, Pain in the Shoulders, Coughs,
Chills, Dizziness, Sour Stomach, bad
taste in the mouth, bilious attacks, pal
pitation of the heart, depression of spir-
its, or the blues, and hundred other
symptoms, for which SIMMONS LIV-
Err REGULATOR is the best remedy
that has ever been discovered. 1t acts
mildly, efectually, and being a simple
vegetable compound, can do no injury
in any quantities that it may be taken.
1t is harmless in every way; it has been
used for 40 years, and hundreds of the
good and great from all parts of the
country will vouch for its being the pu-
rest and best.
