Trua Merit viii Win.

A few years since the proprietors Of DR..
Morris Syrup of Tar, Wild Cherry and
Horehound introduced it here. It was not
pufed, but sold on its merits. Our people
soon found it to be reliable, and already it
has become the most staple and popular
pulmonary remedy in the market. It
quickly cures the worst coughs, colds,
Group, bronchitis, asthma and incipient
consumption. Nothing acts so nicely in
whooping cough, and it is SO pleasant that
children readily take it. Containing no
opium, or other dangerous drug, it is as
safe as it is sure. Trial size, 10 cts; large
sizes. so cts. and One Dollar. Sold by
JAMES BROWN.
Also Agents for Prof. Parkers' Pleasant

Hayes has received several threat
ening letters of late. The last one is
from St. Louis. The writer urges
the President elect to withdraw ;
warns him that the South once be-
fore swore never to submit to a
President, and adds that "you will
remember that ne did not serve his
time" with a gloating alIusion to
Wilkes Booth There is a brief as
sertion of the rightful election OF
Tilden, the rest of the letter being
made up of current political slang.
The writer says he is a Louisianian,
temporarily in st. Louis.
Men who intend to assassinate are
not apt to send warning before hand
but there are lunatics in the world,
as well as villains, and current talk
on such subjects may prompt one o.
them to deed of blood. President
Lincoln used to say that was the
only class he feared.

A Card 20 the Public.

For many years we have made two medi-
cines suited to the ailments of a vast class
of sufferers. Thousands of cures have
been made by them, and, in fact, the
word failure could not be coupled with
them. But within the last two years
counterfeits of our medicines have sprung
up, dangerous in their close imitation of
our Trade Mark. To secure the people we
have placed upon each genuine box of
Holloway's Ointment the fac simile of the
signature of our agent, Mr.. Jos. .Haydock.
To counterfeit is felony. We shall relent-
lessly pursue any one who initiates this with
the utmost rigor. of the law. We most
oasnently bo6 th0t thc eroat mass of the
American people will aid 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 re-
fuse to purchase medicines purporting to
be ours unless Mr.. JOS Haydock's sigma
ture is attached to each box of Pills or pot
of Ointment, and the end will soon be

No medicine will so effectrally improve the tone
of the stomach these Pills; they remove all
acidity occasioned either by intemperance or i'm
proper diet. They reach the liver and reduce it to
a healthy action; they are wonderfully eficacious
in cases of spasm-in fact they fail in curing
all disorders of the liver and stomach.

world for the following diseases: Ague, Asthma

The Compromise Plan for count
ing the Electoral votes, agreed upon
by the Senate and House committees
on Wednesday of last week, will be
found on our inside pages. It is va
riously received by men of both par
ties, but the strongest opposition is
from Republicans, and the strongest
support from Democrats. We are
free to say we do not like it, and do
not believe it will settle the question
to the satisfaction of the people.

Solemn Facts for Demo-

Gratis.
The non political correspondent Of
the Cincinnati Commercial, Fl. V. R.,
has been all over the South and
speaks what he knows He says: .
If the st. Louis platform and con-
stitutional amendments amount to
anything, Tilden is without majori-
ty of the popular vote, all claims to
the contrary Notwithstanding. Even
upon "the face of the returns" which
make no allowance for suppressed
votes, Tilden's majority is but 251,
461, and not NEARLY half million,
as has heen so often claimed by en-
thusiastic Democratic newspapers.
This majority owes its existence to
the suppressed Republican vote in
the South.
The reason that Tilden has a pop
ular majority of 241,461 over Hayes,
is because large portion of the
black vote in tie Cotton States has
been suppressed, or made to vote
the ticket they hate.
This is fair estimate of the sup
pressed vote, including also those
who were compelled to vote for Til
den against their will:
Alabama, $4,000; Georgia, $4,000
Louisiana, $4,000; Mississippi, 20,
600; South Carolina, $4,000; Texas
10000. Total, 253,00O.
This cuts away Tilden's boastet
popular majority entirely. With 1
perfectly fair election he would have
no majority, either upon the popular
vote or in the Electoral College
Mississippi, when all her legal voters
have voice, is as emphatically Re
publican as Massachusetts. She wai
carried for Tilden by suppressine
tens of thousands of legal voters
