The Great Southern Remedy for
RHEUMATISM, G0UT
AND NEURALGIA !

Those terrible enemies of human happi-
ness, Rheumatism. Gout and Neuralgia,
heretofore seemingly uncomfortable, hays
indeed found their master in Jehkins' Anni-
hilator. We have the testimony of men Of
the highest standing in Louisiana and other
States, that after suffering indescribable
pains for years, from which they SOUGHT re-
lief in vain by visiting the Hot and Warm
springs Of Arkansas and Virginia, and by
using dozens of remedies more or less highly
praised, when, in fact, hope had almost died
out, they have found relief from pain by tho
use of the Annihilator, and by continuing it
for short time, have been perfectly cured.
4ae' Anpihilator is a preparation purely
vegetable, agreeable to the taste, and may
be taken without fear of. any injurious re-
suits by the delicafe as well as the robust in
constitution. ..

To Friends of the Bounty Bill.

The singular delay in the report OF this bill
from the committee, gives rise to some suspi-
cion of good faith on the. part of the members
of the House and Senate, who are pledged al
ready to this relief.
We earnestly urge once more upon every per-
son interested, either as recipient of the
bounty or friend of the soldiers entitled, to
proceed vigorously and at once in concerted at
tack upon the members of Congress.
1t is necessary for every man in interest to
write at once to his member of Congress, urg
ing and requiring him to press this bounty bill
to an early vote.
You, the soldiers, or soldiers friends in each
Congressional district In each State, have it In
your power to force an early and favorable ac-
tion in the House.
Every member now here will, this next fall,
come before his people for denomination, and
they ought to be advised beforehand that failure,
neglect, or slothfulness in this matter will be
good cause for rejection of his claims for con-
tinuance Of public favor.
Separate drops of water have no force, but
many united forms power that sweeps away
all obstacles. A single, isolated soldier counts
but little, but many of them, moving in con-
cert for the same purpose, make an irresistible
army.
You can not have forgotten what unity of
purpose and discipline have accomplished. See
TO it for your own sake and your own interest,
that you can act as one in question which In
wolves direct benefit to each of you
If the bounty bill fails to become law at
this session. il will be because the soldiers, sail
ors and marines of the country do not press it
home to the consciences of their members
Flood the Post Office with your demands
write plainly, bravely, and earnestly to your
Representatives, and let them know that you
will hold them responsible.

Will our Legislators make note of this, and

Congressional.

Since our last number nothing particularly
worthy of note or of particular interest to our
patrons has transpired in Congress-.
The only measure passed in the House, is the
bill approprating money to pay three months
extra pay to officers and soldiers Of the Mexican
war, who have not already received it under the
act of 184S.
Upon the disbandment of the volunteer force
engaged in the Mexican war, Congress passed
law, giving to all officers and soldiers honorably
discharged three months extra pay. Most .of
those entitled have long since received their
gratuty, but of late it has turned out that there
are some four or five hundred still living who
for some cause. or other have neglected to come
forward make their claim and take their money.
The appropriation has long since lapsed and
been covered back into the treasury.
To meet this class of cases the following bill
has been introduced and passed the House of
Representatives, and is favorably reported by
the Senate committee
for the payment the officers and soldiers of the
Mexican of the three months extra pay provided
for by the act of July nineteenth eighteen hundred and

General Business in Congress.

1t is agreed on all hands that the present
Congress has done less, and promises to do less,
than any one ever assembled.
There appears to be either an incapacity or
an unwillingness to settle seriously to work and
do business. The ordinary appropriation bills
are far behind, and no new legislation has been
brought to an advanced state. If they do not
change their ways the August heats will find
Congress with It's work unperformed.
