understood with us, or, more strictly,
animals of the bovine lace, were in.
troduced into all our Atlantic States
soon altar the first settlers came over
from Europe. Those settlers brought
with them animals reared in the vicini-
ties from which they themselves came,
of various nationalities. Their cattle
were of no particular breeds of distinc.
tive names that we have learned, but
such as served the wants of the settlers
in the production of milk, the propaga-
ton of their kind, their meat for food,
and their labor for agriculture-ani-
mails of common order only, as im.
proved breeds in those days had not re.
ceived much attention in the country
from which the emigrants came. An.
terror, however, to the colonial settle
ments in what are now the United
States, the Spaniards had introduced
many cattle from their own country in.
to the territories of Mexico and further
south, and in the broad, luxuriant past
ures of those regions they multiplied
into numerous herds, with little atten-
ton 70 their improvement, as they are
now found and known but of late years,
since the annexation of Texas; New
Mexico, and California they have be-
come quite an article of commerce, and
consumption in other States.
In nearly all the grass producing or
grazing portion of our oldeu States, as
the people progressed in their modes of
agriculture, their cattle increased and
multiplied, were usually well carod for,
and answered all the purposes demand
ed of them. In some sections of the
country they are better cared for than
in others, and possibly improved in
quality over, the originals from which
they sprang yet as the settlers, after
some years, began to migrate to differ.
ent localities, taking portions of their
herds with them, the cattle became In
termixed with those derived from other
nationalities. SO that in process of time
a general intermixture took place. and
the name " common cattle was only
known in their application. This name
is continued to distinguish them from
the improved breeds of later years.

just now the Eastern papers are toss

culture brought in by some of the cities
and avenues are very large, and should
be well laughed at by moderate people.
The word "culture y should be permit

all the Eastern eloquence over that
quality, any of them should seem to
come short of it 1t is also form of
egotism when the Atlantic coast brings

Looking at the situation, one must
feel reason for such retirement Of term

are other words which should be popu.

AYERS PILLS have been known tor
more than quarter of a century, and have
obtained worldwide reputation for their
virtues. They correct diseased actic'. In
the several assimilative organs OF the
body, and are so composed that obstruc-
tons within their range can rarely with
stand or evade them. Not only do they
cure the everyday complaints Of every
body, but also formidable and dangerous
diseases that have baffled the best OF
human skill While they produce power
full effects, they are, at the same time, the
safest and best physic for children: BY
their aperient action they grippe much less
than the common purgatives, and never
give pain when the bowels are not infiamed.
They reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing it
from the elements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates, containing neither calomel
nor any deleterious drug, these Pills may
be taken with safety by anybody. Their

and makes them pleasant to take; while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise
