A few evenings ago, one Of those old
family servants. once pettel and proyi-
dea for In every want, passed the door of
the son Of his former owner now engaged
~ prosperous busine,s The old negro
was no longer slave. He was under the
panoply Of freedom. He was his yid mas
ters equal before tile law aud In political
right. But 10 scan his ragged garb, Ills
emaciated face, and his bowed form, free
dom had not been blessing 70 him. He
evidently sighed for The flesh pots Of
Egypt And when the sympathetic voice
OF the SON Of hrs old master feel upon his
ear inqu!ring into his wants, and sug-
gesting relief the pride Of the newly made
freedman gave way. aud In his humility
be confessed his misery. and deplored his
unwelcoma gift Of freedom. He was
amply provided for. Yet he like most Of
his race, OH the day o. election, will for
get their old friends. aud cling to those
who have always deceiysd them.

sEArUIrIeUs ADVICE.

This species OF advice Is not always ac-
ceptable. but doubtless in many instances
much benefit would be derived We're IL
promptly acted upon. No section Of the
country is exempt from disease aud n,sny
regions has its ''ills that nesh is heirs to-"
TO know the best means of combating
this common eiien,y, with the least in
jury to our pockets and tastes, Is certainly
q great advantage. At this season We
must expect Torpid Liver. congrsted
spleen. vitiated bile and Inactive bowels,
and all prudent persons should supply
themselves with TUTT's LIVER PILLS,
which will stimulate the liver. relieve the
engorged splsen, Determine healthy
dow ofbiie. thus regulating the bowels
aud causing all unhealthy secretions ia

that ian ounce of preventive Is worth
more than pound of cure"
