A Card to the Public,

For many years we have made two medicines suited to the ailments of a vast class of sufferers. Thous- ands of cures have been made by by tho and, in fact, the word fail ure co Id not be coupled with them. But within the last two years coun- terfeits of our medicine have sprung up, dangerous in their close imita- ton of our Trade Mark. To secure the people we have placed upon each genuine box of Holloway's Ointment the fac simile of the sig nature of our agent, Mir. Jos. Hay dock. To counterfeit is felony. We shall relentlessly pursue any one who initiates this with the utmost vigor of the law. We most earnest ly beg that the great mass of the American people will ali. Us in our efforts to protect their health, and help us in our task of bringing these most unprineipled men to the bar of justice. Uniformly refuse to purchase Medicines purporting to be ours unless Mir. Jos. Haydock < signature is attacned to each box of Pills or pot of Ointment and the end will soon be reached.
 The public's obedient servants,
 HOLLOWAY & Co.

 Lines to "A Friend"

think of thee when in the east Morn's first faint blush is seen; At noonday, when the sunlight throws Der earth a golden sbeen. And when at eve upon the hills The lengthning shadows creep; And when at night ten thousand stars Their silent vigils keep, I think of thee. When o'er the world, Majestic as q queen, Pale luna scars aloft and casts
 On us her smile serene; When from life's busy scenes turn, From care and trouble free, When into Dreamiands fairy realm Istray, think of thee. Yes. faircst one, my every thought, My every hope aud dream or happiness in future years
 Is linked with thy dear name. How drear and dark to me would seem This world of pain and strife But for the hope your smiles will clear My way in after-lile. SEARcY, Nov. 18th.

A Splendid Pageant.

The Military Parade on Thanks
giving Day was perhaps the finest
ever witnessed in Hillsboro, certain
ly the finest during the past 25
years. The Noble Light Guard and
Scott Dragoons-the latter on foot
and armed with sabres-turned out
about so members each, besides the
band attached to each company, both
bands being also in uniform.
At about half-past 2 o'clock, the
two companies formed at the Town
Hall, and marched to the intersec-
ton of High and Main streets, where
there was an exchange of military
cousssies between the officers of the
two organizations. This ceremony
being over, the word of command
WAS given, and the column moved
off at quick time, the Dragons tax
ing the lead, with their excellent
band.
As the column moved through the
principal streets, to the stirring mu-
sic of the bands, the handsome uni
forms of both companies their fine
physique, soldierly bearing, and pro
fciency in marching and drill,
elected general and deserved admi-
ration, from the many spectators who
were out to witness the parade, in
spite of the cold wind blowing and
the snow that fell briskly during
most of the time.
At the close of the parade the col
umn was drawn up in front of the
E.licott House. Here it was briefly
reviewed by Lit. Col. Noble, of the
18th o. N. g., and then marched
back to the Town Hall, where the
battalion was dismissed.
Without boasting, it may be said
that our town has good reason to be
proud of its two military companies,
and of the public-spirited citizens,
DR.. David Noble and VIM. Scott,
Esq, to whose generous encourage
ment and aid they are so largely in
debted for their handsome and COM
plete equipment. May both ever
strive to do honor to themselves,
their benefactors and their town.
