BE We Like Foolish.

For ten years my wife was confined
to her bed with such complication OF
ailments that no doctor could tell what
was the matter or cure her, and used
up email fortune in humbug stuff.
Six months ago saw a u. s. flag with
Hap Bitters on it, and thought I
would be fool once more. I tried it.
but my folly proved to be wisdom.
Two bottles cured her; she is now as
we'll and strong as any mans wife.
and it cost me only two dollars. Be
ye likewise foolish. ."-H. W., Detroit,

Political.

The democracy can perform its backdown
slowly or quickly, according to taste, but the
jig must be danced
The Cincinnati Enquirer finds that Cover
nor Bishop has the best chance of securing
the democratic nomination for Governor in
Ohio.
Gen. Robert Toombs expresses the opinion
that Mr.. Tilden has no more chance to be
nominated for President in 1880 than he has.
and that he himself has no more chance than
a free negro.
Senator Wallace's promises to protect Union
soldiers in their positions have proved to be
about as fraudulent as his coffce-colored nat
uralization papers.
An imitation Of the currency will not save
the South. What you really need is to go to
work. TGreat laughter. You should have
more schools more enterprise and thrift, and
less recklessness of life, less hatred of what
you call carpet aggers--damned Yankees
Your business enterprises should be conduct
ed more with picty and less with pistols.
What Mississippi needs to-day is more corn
and cotton and less cussedness laughter and
applause ; more mills, more manliness less
murders, less moonshiners What would i'm
prove South Carolina is more hams and fewer
llamburgs. She should raise horses and
hogs more and hell less. Great applause.
