out to others, started to run, when
Barksdale's gun cracked, and he re-

PRINTERS AND PRINTING.-Many
who coudescend to illuminate this dark
world with the fire Of their genius,
through the columns Of a newspaper,
little think of the lot of the printer, who
sits up at midnight to correct their false
grammar and photography, and worse
punctuation. We have seen the argu.
ments of lawyers, in high repute as
scholars, sent to the printer in Their
own handwriting-many words, espec.
tally technical and foreign terms abbre-
Waited, words mis-spelled, and few OF
no points aud these few, if any, GER
tainIy in the wrong place. We have
seen the sermons OF eminent "divines'
sent to the press without points or cap
itals to designate the division of the
sentences; also the letters of the polit-
ical and scientific correspondents
Suppose all these had been so printed,
the printer would have been treated
with scorn and contempt. No one
would have believed that such gross
and palpable faults were owing to the
ignorance or careleseness of tho au-
thor; and no one but the practical
printer knows how many hours the

Ayers .Ague Cure,

For Fever and Ague, intermittent Fever,
Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague,
,Ss OF aous bics & and indeed
GUS, marsh, or miasmatic poisons.
This is a compound remedy, prepared with
scientific skill from vegetable ingredients, which,
rarely fails to cure the severest cases of Chls
and Fever and the concomitant disorders. Such
remedy the necessities of the people In mala-
rions districts demand. Its great superiority
over any other medicine yet discovered for the
cure Of Incrmittcnts is, that it contains no qui.
nine or mineral, and those who take 1t are free
from danger Of quinism or any injurious effects,
and are as healthy after using it as before. 1t
has been extensively employed during the last
thirty years In the treatment of these distressing
disorders, and SO unvarying has been its success
that ithas gained the reputation of being infal-
lible. 1t can, therefore, be safely recommended
as sure remedy and specific for the Fever and
Ague Of the West, and the Chills and Fevor OF
the South. 1t counteracts the miasmatic poison
In the blood, and frees the system from Its nAu-
ence, so that fever and ague, shakes or chills,
once broken up by 1t, do not return until the
disease is again contracted.
The great variety of disorders which arise from
the irritation Of this poison, such as Neuralgia,
Rheumatism, G0ut, Headache, Blindness,
AOOsRAhCucs 1S6EdCu0p SWC0EIlAp {AbtuIuAp AAe
pitation, SpIenic Affections, Mysteries, Pain
In the Bowels, Colo, Paralysis, and derange-
of the Stomach, all of which become intermit-
tent or periodical, have no speedier remedy than
AYERS AeuE CURE, which cures them all alike,
and protects the system from future attacks. AS
. preventive, 1t is of Immense service In those
communities where Fever and Ague prevails, as
It stays the development Of the disease If takes
on the first approach Of the premonitory symp'
toms. Travellers and temporary residents are
thus enabled to defy these disorders, and few
will ever suffer If they avail themselves Of the
protection this remedy affords.
For Liver Complaints, arising from torpidity,
1t ia an excellent remedy; it stimulates this orgaA
into healthy activity, and produces many remark
able cures where other medicines fail.
