A Few Words to Feeble and Delicate
 Women.

By R. V. Pierce, N. D.. of the Worlds Disnen-
 eary, Buffalo NY, author of "The people's
 Common Sense Medical Adviser" etc.
 Knowing that you are subject to a great amount of suffering. that delicacy on your part has a strong tendency to prolong it. and the lougtr it is neglt tctcd the moro you have to endure and the more difficult of cure your case becomes, l, as physician, who an daily consulted by scores of your sex, desire to gay to you that am constantly meeting with tbosa who have been treated fer their ailments for months without being benefited in the least,
 until they have become perfectly discoursped
 and have almost made up their mind never to take another dose of medicine, or be tortured by any furthor treatment. They had rather die and have their sufferings ended than t3 live and suffer as thoy have They sav tbev are worn out by suffering, and are only made worse by treatment. Of anything more dis
 couraSng We certainly cannot conceive, and were there no more successful mode of treat ing such difficulties than that the principles of which teach the reducing and d. pletipc of the vital forces of the sy tenn when the indications dictate treatment directly the reverse of the one adopted for them, their case wouId be de
 plorable indeed. But lady sufferers, there is better and far more successful plan of treat nent TOT you; one moro in harmony with the laws and requirements of your system. harsh, irritating caustic treatment and strong medicines will never cure you. + you would use rational means, such aS common sonse should dictate to every intelligent lady, take such medicines embody the very he st invig- orating tonics and nervines compounded with special reference to your delicste system. Such happy combination you will find in Favorite Prescription, which has received the highest praise from thousands of your sex. Those languid, tiresome sensations, causing you to feel scarcely able to be on TOUT feet, or as scend a flight of stairs that continual drain that is sapping from your system all your former elas- ticity, and driving the blood from your checks; that continual strain npon your vital forces that renders you irritable and fretful, may all be overcome and subdued by a persevering use of that marvellous remedy. Irregularities and obstructions to tho proper working of your system are relieved by this mild and safe means, while periodical pains, the existence of which is a suro indication of serious disease that should net be neglected, readily yield to it, and if it's use be kept up for a reasonable length of time the special cause of these pains is permanently removed. Further light on these subjects may be obtained from "The Peoples Common Sense Medical Adviser" in which l have devoted & large space to the con alteration of all forms of diseases peculiar to your sex.

A Mexican Circus.

A curious thing is Mexican circus. One, at Puebla, came up from old Mexi- co. The managers have some sections of canvas, and with these and such pieces of lumber as they can pick up in the town in which they exhibit, they construct sort of tent or corral. The patrons of the show must provide their own seats. Each caballero may be seen going to the show with senorita on one arm and couple of chairs or stools on the other. The advance agent spurns the regular printers ink, using instead a muslin poster, on which is printed an advertisement of the circus. The per- formance consists mainly of tumbl ng and horizontal bar exercises, though m educated pony and some trained dogs play part in the programme. The performers are wonderfuf athletes, and their feats are well worth seeing.

Pfgmies of the Past.

An ancient graveyard of vast propor- tlons has been found in Coffee county. Tenn. It is similar to those found in White county and other places in mid dle Tennessee, but is vastly more exten- slve, and shows that the race of pigmies who once inhabited this country were very numerous. The same pecuiiarities of position observed in the White conn ty graves are found in these. The writer of the letter says Some consid- erabie excitement and curiosity took place few days since near Hiilsboro. Coffee county, on James Browns farm. A man was blowing in field which has been cultivated many years and plowed up mans skull and other bones. After making further examination they found that there was about six acres in the graveyard. They were buried in sit ting or standing position. The bones show, that they were a dwarf tribe of people about three feet high. It is es- timated that there were about 75, GOO to 100, 900 buried there. This shows that this country was inhabited hundreds of years ago.

Special dispatches from Kansas City state that during & severe snow storm Mrs. George Holton and two little chil- dren. living near Wamega, Kansas, on the lne of the Kansas Pacific railroad, started at night to go to a neighbor's house, only quarter of mile distant. Darkness coming on and the storm beat ing them so furiously they became be- wlldered and wandered about tho prairie until exhausted. They were found the next morning frozen to death, not twenty rods from the house they were in search of. The mother had taken of nearly all her clothes to protect her children, and was herself in an almost naked condition.

4 New Trial.

In July, 1874, a Chicago merchant named Staaden, having heavily insured his hardware store and removed his stock, saturated the floors with oil and heaped them with rags, then placed sov- eral kegs of powder on the shelves, attached trains and lighted them. This was at noon, on crowded street. The fire was fortunately discovered and ex- tinguished. Staaden was only brought to trial last winter, and sentenced to Q years imprisonment. He has secured a new trial, and will probably be set free.

There is evidently great dissatisfac
tion with this bill in the seashore coun
ties. The letters we subjoin are from
the most respectable citizens of that re-
gion. The bill is still open for amend
ment, and we earnestly advise that it be
done in such way as to remove the obiec-
tons from that quarter.
SCRANTON, Miss, March Il, 1876.
EDITORS CLARION: Permit me TO call
your attention TO the proposed addition OF
Clarke, Lauderdale and kemper counties to
this judicial District A glance at the
map will convince any one that the inter-
est OF all the southern portion of the Dis
trict has been wholly and wantonly over
looked. A District can be formed com pact
In form and where the people are indenti-
ned In interest and occupation.
MY position as business man brings me
into daily contact with men from all the
lower counties, and recently there have
Deen many representative men from all
these counties among us. The feeling of
disapprooation, might say Indignation, is
deep and universal, and unless change is
made 1t will be disastrous affair for our
fali campaign. Will you not use your in
huence to effect change?
Yours very truly,

Of the worthy names suggested for the
Judgeship of this Chancery District, that
of Capt. +. L. Sykes strikes US as, all in
all, the most fit. He unites dignity OF

integrity of nature that speaks out in his
bright eye and upright dealings with his
fellow-man. independent.
The above meets with our hearty con-
currence. We know Capt Sykes well,

of Chancellor, it would be just tribute
to his merit and compliment to the peo-
