DIR. ScHENcK's PULMoNIo SYRUP, SEA WEED
TONIC, AND MANDRAKE PILLs.-These medicines
have undoubtedly performed more cures of Con-
sumption than any other remedy known to the
American public. They are compounded of vegeta-
bic Ingredients and contain nothing which can be
Injurious to the human constitution Other rene
dies advertised as for Consumption, probably
in all cases. and if taken freely by consumptivc pa
t1ents it must do great injury; for its tendency is to
confne The morbid matter to the system, which, of
course, must make cure impossible. Schenck's
Pulmonic Syrup is warranted not to contain parti-
Gle of opium. 1t is composed of powerful but harm
less herbs, which act on the lungs, liver, stomach,
and blood, and thus correct all morbid secretions
and expel all the diseased matter from the body
These are the only means by which Consumption can
be cured, and as Schencks Pulmonc Syrup, Sea
Weed Tonic, and Mandrake Pills are the only medi-
cines which operate in this way, it is obvious they
are the only genuine cure for Pulmonary Consump-
ton. Each bottle of this invaluable medicine is ac-
companied by full directions. DR.. Schenck is pro
fessionally at his principal office, Sixth and
Arch Streets Philadelphia, every Monday, where all
letters for advice must be addressed.

Dear Sir:-FOr seven or eight years past L
have been in poor health, and for the past year
or more very feeble. My health continued to

tortures of a confirmed dyspeptic About six
months since l concluded to try a bottle of
Peruvian Syrup, and received so much benefit
from it that purchased five bottles more, and
have continued the use of the Syrup until
quite recently. 1t has restored my health to
such an extent that | feel myself as good as
new. My digestion is good and my weight has
increased in the past four months from one
hundred and twenty to one hundred and thirty
eight pounds; my strength has returned, and
my general health is thus wonderfully improved

your Peruvian Syrup. earnestly ecommeni
all sufferers from dyspepsia and debility to give
it trial, hoping it will do them as much good
as it has me. Yours very truly,

We call the attention Of the public to
an advertisement of the III. c.. F. Institute
which appears in another column. This
is a most excellent female school, situated
at Jackson, Tenn, and we would ask pa
rents to give its advantages due considera-
ton before sending their daughters else
where.
Those inquiring for a fr-t-class male
school we refer to Roanoke College, Salem,
Va. 1t is well known throughout the
South and merits a liberal patronage. See
card in to-day paper.
We take pleasure in calling the attention
| of our readers to the advertisement of
Central Female Institute which may be
seen in another column. This old and de-
serving Institution will begin its Twenty
fourth Collegiate Year, September 26lh,
under the most favorable auspices, and we
are acquainted with no other like institu-
ton of learning that We would sooner rec
ommend.
The Mississippi College, at Clinton, Miss,
is still in a prosperous condition and offers
every advantage for the cheap and thor
ough education Of young men. Read it,
az advertisement in to-day's paper and com
pare its inducements with those of other
schools.
An attractive advertisement of the ia
nous Pratt Cotton Gin appears in another

This Gin is widely known throughout the

it claims to be unequalled. Maj. r. W

II affords us very great pleasure TO say
that Major J. T. Sessions publicly states he
will support Tilden and Hendricks this
fail. This news will be received by his
many friends with applause. While the
Major will vote for the Democratic nomi-
nees, he says he will take no active part in
politics. Two years ago Major Sessions
ran for the Senate on the Republican tick
eli, was warmly supported by many Dem
ocrats, and was elected. While in the
Senate he refused to be driven by the par
ty, aud voted for measures that he. believed
to be for the best interest of his people
That rendered him unpopular with the
wreckers, and since that time they have
attached but little claim to. him. In com
mon with the numerous friends of Majol
Sessions, we welcome him back to the
Democratic party.
