BRADPIELD's FEMALE RRauLAToR.-We
have often road in the newspapers of the
grand success Of medical compounds put up
at the North and elsewhere. Many of those
medicines have had their day, and We hear
no moro of them Their proprietors have
made fortunes, not 80 much from the curative
powers and virtues of their mixtures, as from
the notoriety given them by advertising, by
which people were made to believe all the
good that was said of them. Il preparation
is now before the public which is becoming
very popular, and is known az Bradfelds 8
Female Regulator, put up by L. Bradfeld,
of Atlanta, Ca, at 81 80 per bottle. Such is
its curative virtues, that it has gained wide
spread popularity oil over the country where
it has been made known, and il is being in
troduccd everywhere. We are informed hat
immense quantities of this medicine are be,
ing sold in all sections of the South and South
west, especially in :he city Of New Orleans
and in Texas.
This much we say in justice to its proprie>
tor, who is n gentleman of integrity, and who
would not engage in the manufacture and
sale of humbug.-La Grange Reporter.
Two Miles before Breakfast.
In neighhoring city in Georgia, there is
married woman. who, after her third con-
iinc;mem!, had nnceration. with all its repul-
sive symptoms. She tried in vain all ,he
nOstrums; her husband carried her to oil tho
famous mineral springs. went with her to
New York, Philadelphia, aud other places,
to consult eminent obstetricians, to no pur.
pose. After The use of the fifth bottle of
Regulator, she has been fully restored to her
former health and happiness, and is now the
joy of the houschold--is able to walk two
miles before breakfast.

"Whcn thou art old and rich.

1t is surprising how few books have
been written on the dseases incident
to cid age. We know of no work
that would bo more generally read by
tho medico legal word, or in fact by
all classes, that "Treatise on the
medical management of old age"
written in plain stylo and free from
all tech nicalites, nor do we know of
any medicine that is more happily q.
dapted to the alleviating of the pains
and aches of the aged than DR.. TUFTS
Liver Pills, While thoy act promptly

In cases of gout, Rheumatism, kidney
diseases, torpid bowels, indigestion,
loss OF appetite, their healing proper
ties are truly wonderful. Their effect
on the nervous system is prompt,
quieting rostlinoss, imparting refresh
ing sleep and vigor to tho whole sys-
tenn. The old and young will be alike
benefited by the use of this truly es-

A Song.

The harp at Natures advent strung
 Has never ceased to play; The song the stars Of morning sung
 Has never died away. And prayer is made, and praise is given,
 By all things near and far. The ocean looketh up 10 heaven,
 And mirrors every star. Its waves are kneeling on the strand,
 As kneels the human knee, Their white locks lowing to the sand.
 The priesthood of the sea! They pour their glIttering treasures forth.
 Their gifts of pearl they bring, And all the listening hills Of earth
 Take up the song they sing. The green earth sends her incense up
 From many a mountain shrine: From folded leuf and Jieyyy cup
 She pours her sacred wine. The miSts above the morning riIls
 Rise white as wings of prayer; The altar curtains Of the hills
 Are sunsets purple air. The winds with hymns Of praise are loud, Or low with sobs Of pain, The :hunder-organ Of the cloud.
 The dropping tears or rain. With dropping head ard branches crossed The twilight forest grieves, Or speaks with tongues or Pentecost From all It's sunlit leaves. Tie blue sky is the temples arch.
 Its tranSept earth and air. The music Of it's starry march
 The chorus or a prayer. So Nature keeps the reverent frame With which her years began; And all her signs and voices shame
 The prayerlesS heart of man.

 MT Samuel Laurin who. on the 21th of September left for Tucson on his second trip to be tried for an alleged offence. Upon presenting himself and imporUning the Court to force the prosecution to make good its charge. The Case was again put off by reason oi adjournment of court until after he election. There is a parallel to this adjournment in this Territory. when a convention in Santa Fe adjourned un- ul after the lambing season. .''-Silver City Herald, October 2l.
 Of course, If one is in nowise re- stricted by the truth or facts of case he 1an make any kind of parallel. There is a constructive falsehood in saving that the above tease was put of, by reason of adjournment of court until after the election" Court sessions are very expensive and the present head ot this judicial district has in- auCurated a very wise system of econo- my under his regime by cutting the court sessions off short or adjourning till the next session, when there is not sufficient business to warrant the hold ing Of court. This may work occasion al individual hardship, but at times the comfort of the individual has 10 give way to the public veal. Incidentally our August term of Court, here, was adjourned until after the election, and in the same sense the late session of Congress was adjourned until after the blowing up of Hell Gate, but no one with any delicacy of feeling would ever hint at any connection of the rel atively coincident occasions.
