Natures Remedial Agents.

1t is said that for every disease that eff
fects suffering humanity, nature has pro-
vided remedy, and all that man has to
do is to discover these remedial agents
and apply them to their appropriate all
ments, These are mostly found in the
vegetable kingdom, and root, banks. herbs,
grains, and other simple and harmless in
gradients are more effective than any OF
the mineral poisons used so freely by
many physicians. The celebrated DR..
RADCLIFFE, in the SEVEN SEALS OR GOLDEN
WONDER, has compounded a vegetable
remedy peculiarly adapted for a wide
range of diseases, combining as it does
the curative properties of great number
of the most effective roots, herbs and
barks. For pains and aches it has never
been edualed.

From Webster County.

Dixon, KY, May both, &c.
Editor Herald:
The world wags on and Dixon wags
with it.
If you are not already aware of the
fact l will tell thee, that Springs gay
promise has already melted into fair
Summer, whose emerald robes are on
each tree, and earth and sky acknowl-
edge his hot dominion.
Dixon is rather dull at the present
time on the account of the grangers
all being hard at it.
There is some complaint amongst
our farmers because of the scarcity of
tobacco plants, though only in few
localities. Webster has a good pros
pect for an ordinary crop Of both corn
and tobacco.
The citizens of Dixon have two prof.
ects in their heads, of which if they
are safely delivered, will greatly add
to the place. DC. They propose to
build fine Union Church and Acade-
my this summer and fall. | have no
doubt but that both will be erected,
unless as it happened once before. -
When talking of building a church
and had all the money made up, they
fell out and "bust" up because they
could not agree as TO what kind of
a chandelier would be the best, and
who should play (?) on it after they
procured it.
Prof. j. +. Haynes seems to be, and
no doubt is, the busiest man in Dixon.
He has fine school and what is bet
ter, knows how to keep it that way
A gentleman travelling for a publishing
company, told me the other day that
HAYNES had the best Grammar class
he had heard recite in the State. He
is ably assisted in his school by Miss
Laura Doris of Dixon.
Some of our citizens have the Texas
mania. Judge A. Edwards and L. B.
Bolts Esq, leave for that State in few
days, the former for Dallas, and Bolts
for Austin.
We have not yet let out the
contract for our new Jail, on ac-
count of the great loss the county sus-
tanned last fall and winter by having
nearly all our bridges washed away
We have heard your Jail very highly
eulogized by several. Mr.: Haynes
thinks it the best structure of the kind
he was ever in. It might be to the
advantage of the builder, Mr.. Edgar
Bennett, to make us visit.
Yours, S. TAG.

Death Of LycurgHs l.. little.

We clip the following from the Nc
Lean County Progress:
1t is with sorrow that we are called
upon to chronicle the death of our
friend and fellow-tOwnsman, Lycurgus
l.. Little, which occurred at the resi-
dence of his father, in this place, be-
tween ten and eleven o'clock Oh Thurs
day last. 30.
The Deceased was born in Davies
Co., KY, in 1889, and was, therefore,
81 years of age at his death. In 1868
he was married to Miss Hortense
Graves, of Tuskegee, Ala, but in a
few months the death angel claimed
her, and left him to sorrow and to
mourn. The fruit of this union was
one son, Master Graves Little, now liv-
ing with his grandmother, Mrs. Graves,
at Tuskegee, Ala.
The deceased had been suffering
from an affection of the lungs for some
years, causing frequent hemorrhages,
and last winter was induce by his friends
to spend few months in the South,
in hopes the change would prove bene-
fetal, but it seemed to have the oppo-
site effect. He only reached home one
week ago last Sunday, and, as above
stated, on Thursday last, despite the
tender ministrations of loving friends
and relatives, death claimed him as its
own and he passed away to that far
off boum as serenely as the tranquil
sleep of an infant babe.
Although he will never more be seen
among the walks of men, his remem-
brance will long live in the hearts and
affections of all who have known him,
and we are well aware that this fee
bic tribute of respect to his memo
ry cannot add single laurel to his
good name. His aged parents,
and his brothers, sister and orphan
child will have the coincidence of the
entire community.

BEAVER DAM, June 9th, 16.
Editor Herald:
1t is our painful duty to again chrOn-
icle the death of two mere worthy
ladies. Mrs. Mary Chinn, consort of
Robert Chinn deceased, departed this
life on last Tuesday, of congestion of
the stomach. She was buried on the
following day i'll the family burying
ground. Many relatives and friends
mourn her loss, for she was esteemed
by all who knew her. Mrs. Lou Miller,
wife of j. II. Miller and daughter of
II. b. Hooker, died of consumption on
Sunday last, and was inferred at Goshen
to-day. Funeral services by Rev. S
Cook and Bean. Mrs. Miller fingered
for several months. For several days
she fingered at the point of death, fully
resigned to die, and be done with the
sufferings of this life. She leaves q
bereaved husband, and children, to-
gether with parents and a large circle
of relatives and friends to lament her
loss. She possessed kind, charitable
disposition, causing those who knew
her to love her. May the example
she has left be initiated by those whom
she loved and cared for, and some day
meet her in another world, there to be
forever reunited.
Lizzie, little daughter Of Alphonso
Barnard, fell from off fence last Fri
day and broke her arm just above the
elbow. Through the efficiency of DIR. S
j. Z. Pendleton and G. T. Mitchell,
it was soon attended to, and she being
young, will doubtless speedily recover.
Five rains fell last Thursday and
Friday, which has 'buoyed the farmers,
as well as others, up.
Tobacco plants have been in demand,
but it is thought that by proper divi-
sion, sufficiency for a three-fourth
crop, at least, will be planted.
Reports are very favorable for a
large wheat yield. Oats are in much
better condition since the rain. Past
ures are in fine order.
A man, giving his name as Andrew
jackson, was arrested by the town
marshal, the other day, for Burl Jack
son, who recently escaped from the
Muhlenburg county Jail, but failing to
be the right man, was sent on his way
rejoicing.
Over two hundred hogsheads of to-
baccO have been shipped from here
this season.
Over five hundred dollars worth
more of freight was received at this
depot last week than for many pre-
vious ones.
Thomas Stevens will start this week
for Shelby county with another drove
of fine cattle.
Mrs. Joseph Kahn and daughter, of
Evansville, Ind, are visiting relatives
at this place.
