AN oUrGRowTH OF OTHER DISEASE

Catarrh sometime exists alone, but is
more frequently symptom of other dis
eased conditions. The following letter ex-
plains it
CoLLINGwooD, ,Onondaga Co, n. Y..Jan. 25 1872.
DR.. X. V. Pierce, Buffalo, n. Y:
Dear Sir Allow me to give you a
brief history of the effect of your medicine
called "Goldon Medical Discovery" in my
case / am now in my seventy-fourth
year, and naturally of firm constitution.
Within the last few years, from over ex-
ercise, have been afflicted with compli-
cation of diseases almost incredible to
relate. In the first place catarrh, to de-
gree that, to me, it seemed that my voice
passed out at the ears, to which was added
| it's natural ally-bronchitis to which, at
no great length of time, were added neu-
ralgic pains in the head and shoulders and
bloating of the lower limbs, the most OF
which was superinduced by torpid state
of the liver. | had advice OF several emil
nept physicians, and tried almost every
remedy for such complaints without relief.
| A rapid loss of strength and waste OF flesh,
4 reminded me that could not long with
stand the combined force of the disease
which was fast bearing me down. l gave
up all business, made my will, had my
grave ste ne placed in position and lettered
except date of exit, and resigned myself
to my couch to await events. Not long af-
ter this, saw your advertisement, pro-
cured your remedles-I am now on the
second half dozen of Golden Medical Dis
covery-have good appetite, have gained
fifteen pounds of hesh-no more talk out
of my ears, no more bloating of the limbs,
can walk two or three miles with ease, and
feel that you have given me a lease of ten
or fifteen years-subject, however. to the
ratification of the court above That you
may live long to do good to suffering hu.
manity is the sincere wish of
| Your unknown friend, LUTHER CoLE.

Mr.. Henry Watterson, in the Louisville
Comier-Jommal, with reverential feeling,
says:
Fifteen years ago the news that Charles
Sumner was dead would have been receiy-
ed with something like rejoicing by the peo-
pie of the South. Ten years ago, they
would have hailed it as a message from
Heaven, telling them that an enemy was
removed from the face of the earth. To-
day they will read it regretfully, and their
comment will be: 'He was o great man
he was an honest man and, as he forgave
us, so have we long ago forgiven him."

A BEAUTIFUL WoMAN.-The percep-

woman knows that he is thinking of the
former in his heart. All women have an
innate desire to please their beaux. They
are fond of admiration, hence one of their

Rowdyism has been fearfully prevalent
here of late Scarcely night passes that
the most unearthly noises are not heard
about the streets and this is not all; in
some cases considerable damage is done.
The other night lot of roughs passed
along Centre street making a terrible din,
and the next morning their line of march
could be traced by broken pickets and
boards torn from the fences. This should
be stopped by some means, for it is any
thing but pleasant to have your property
destroyed in any way, but especially by q

Whatever may be thought Of the
means by which the overthrow of the
detestable Kellogg government in Lou
isiana was accomplished, it would GER
tainly be a matter Of great regret to all
honorable, respectable citizens Of the
United States should President Grant
carry the threat implied in his procla-
nation to the people Of New Orleans
into effect, and interfere with the gov
ernment established under the recent
revolution and make any attempt to
again force upon the unwilling people
of Louisiana the detested rule Of the
reckless scoundrel and adventurer whom
they have driven from the government,
which be had usurped without shadow
Of right. The people Of Louisiana had
submitted to the tyrannies and evil
practices of the villains who had taken
possession of their government. until
patience had ceased to be virtue. aud
further submission would have been al
most criminal. The men who were in
Quoted into the various Offices Of the
State government were legally elected
to those offices two years ago by large
majority Of the people Of the State, and
that those men have been so long kept
out Of the offices to which they were
elected, and band of corrupt adven-
turers kept in power against the ex-
pressed will Of the people. under par
tisan decision Of Congress, by the bay
onets Of Federal soldiers, is to the last

true, in strict harmony with the peace

changing administrations. usually prac-
tised by the people Of the United States,
but it must be remembered that the
provocation to the people Of Louisiana
was beyond endurance. Violent dis

President and Congress of the United
States for deliverance from the evils un-
der which they suffered. but twas in

indifference and they were left to the

them, and they were compelled to take
the matter into their own hands. For

would be an act Of cruelty, injustice

The . Sun Guano."

Among the popular fertilizers of the
day none have earned for themselves
a better reputation in SO short time
than the .'SUN GUANo" which is adver-
tised in another column. This guano
was 6rst used in the spring Of this
year as it was an entirely new article,
farmers perhaps regarded it with some
doubt, and yet many were found who
had courage to try it. Their faith in
its value has been amply rewarded, and
now heavy demand from all parta of
the Peninsula affords evidence of its
merits. as the orders already in largely
exceed the anticipations Of the manu-
facturers.
The very moderate price of the Sun
Guano places it within the reach Of
every farmer. Its entire freedom from
adulteration with sand and other rub.
bish which largely enter into the
composition of most Of the low priced
fertilizers in the markst-and its prompt
and decided effects in supplying nutri-
ment to growing crops. entitle it to the
favorable consideration Of every farmer
The unlimited facilities Of Messrs
Walton. Whann & Co., Of Wilmington,
who manufacture this fertilizer, and the
fact that they produce all their raw ma
terials, alone enable the guano to be
offered at the low price at which it is
sold. If fpro6ts had to be paid to other
manufacturers and middle men, it would
be impossible to sell such a product at
so very reasonable price. But as
these gentlemen control immense Sour
ces Of stock which are entirely manufac-
tured by themselves. it is evident that
their ability to turn out such an article
cannot be approached by any mere mix.
ers of already manufactured materials,
who are scattered throughout the coun-
try.
We advise farmers to try the Sun
Guano in seeding their wheat. Its
effects on spring crops have been in
the highest degree satisfactory, and
there is but one opinion among those
who have used it-that it is the cheap
est fertilizer ever offered for the money.
