sHON. EDMUND COOPER AND EX1
PRESIDENT JOHNSON.


1t is pretty generally believed in
Nashville that Cooper's advance to-
wards Johnson-this public display of
the SOLVE branch" to the ex-President
is evidence of some new combination
for the purpose of controlling the cleo
ton of United States Senator, to
come off next month. 1t is said that
mutual friends have interfered, and
that the breach which has heretofore
seemed unfathomable, is about to be
closed. This circumstance is construed
as portending some new move on the
Senatorial board, and lively times
generally.
Mr.. Cooper's effort seems to be re-
garded by many as a rather ravenous
gulping of humble pie" or as cring-
ingly licking the hand that has often
smote him so severely. He evidently
means something more than a mere
compliment to Andrew johnson, and
some interest viii be felt in future de-
velopments. A combination between
the friends Of johnson and the friends
of Stephens would prove formidable.
Columbia Herald and Mall.
Col. Cooper is certainly forgiving in
his nature, and possesses a magnanim
ity which cannot be said to belong to
the man who has been abusing him all
over the State during the past four
years as a traitor" and comparing
him even to Judas Iscariot, Benedict
Arnold and other infamous characters.

prOaches when he must take it TO market,
begins to shout '.short crop" and the rival
~ between the cities of the South, 10 at
tract cotton to themselves, induces their
commission merchants TO take up, echo,
and re-echo this cry. For example, II "a
vannah were to say that the crop was
large one, and Charleston were to declare
the contrary to be true, Charleston would
get the cotton at the expense Of Savannah,
or, at least, the Savannah people think this
effect would be produced, which causes sub
stantially the same result
THE CROP OF 1874.
Probably that section of the United
States north of the SD parallel never raised
better or larger crop of cotton than in
1874. Much of the land was enriched by
overhows, and that section escaped the Sc
we're drought which undoubtedly did cause
much damage in the northern belt Of the
cotton district. In that section, now so IA
vored, the cotton crop was last year more
or less failure. And yet it has been i'm
possible to get Southern authorities to ad-
NIT that even there the yield has increased.
The Southerner is naturally bull in
cotton; he easily deceives himself in re-
spect to the extent of the crop; and this
propensity has cost him dear. A Southern
newspaper recently explained that one
cause of the impoverished condition Of the
South was the fact that her small capitalists
had exhausted their resources in bulling
cotton on the New York Cotton Exchange.
SPECULATION NOW TURNS
upon the quantity of cotton to be received
at the ports in six weeks from Nov. 80.
They were, for the corresponding period

SCHESCK's MANDRAKE PILLS will be found
to possess those qualities necessary to the total
eradication Of all bilious attacks, prompt to
start the secretions Of the liver, and give q
healthy tone to the entire system. Indeed, it is
no ordinary discovery in medical science to have
invented a remedy for these stubborn COM
plants, which develop all the results produced
by a heretofore free use of calomel, a mineral
justly dreaded by mankind, and acknowledged
to be destructive in the extreme to the human
system. That the properties of certain vegeta-
bles comprise all the virtues of calOmel without
its injurious tendencies, is now an admitted
fact, rendered indisputable by scientific re-
searches; and those who use the Mandrake Pills
will be fully satisfied that the best medicines
are those provided by nature in the common
herbs and roots of the fields.
These Pills open the bowels and correct sll
bilious arrangements without salvation or any
of the injurious effects of calOmel or other poi
sons. The secretion of bile is promoted by these
Pills, will be seen by the altered color of the
stools, and disappearing of the sallOw complex
ion and cleansing OF the tongue.
Ample directions for use accompany each box
of Pills.
Prepared only by j. Fl. Schenck s. Son, at
their principal office, corner Sixth and Arch
streets, Philadelphia, and for sale by all drug
gists and dealers. Price IS cents per box
