Ayers Ague Cure

For Fever and Ague, intermittent Fever,
Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague,
all the affections which arise from maiari-
Gus, marsh, or miasmatic poisonS.
This is q compound remedy, prepared with
scientific skill from vegetable Ingredients, which
rarely fails to cure the severest cases of ChiIls
and Fever and the concomitant disorders. Such
remedy the necessities of the people in mala-
rious districts demand. Its great superiority
over any other medicine yet discovered for tho
cure of Intermittent is, that it contains no qui-
nine or mineral, and those who take il are fee
from danger of lunism or any injurious effects,
and are as healthy amer using it as before. II
has been extensively employed during the last
thirty years in the treatment of these distressing
disorders, and so unvaryiHg has been its success
thai uhas gained the reputation of being infnl-
ilble 1t can, therefore, be safely recommended
as sure remedy and specific for the Fcvcr and
Ague of the West, and the Chilis and Fever of
the South. 1t countcracts the miasmatic Poisec
in the blood, and frees the system from its ipHl-
ence, so that fever and ague, shakes or e,
once broken up by it, do not return until s
disease is again contracted

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,
it is an excellent remedy; it stimulates this organ
INTO healthy activity, and produces many remark
able cures where other medicines fail.

A few weeks ago we had the pleas
ure Of announcing the promotion Of
Capt. Edward Barrett, formerly of the
United States war steamer Plymouth,
to the rank Of Commodore in the ma
tional navy. Now it becomes our
painful duty to chronicle his death,
which occurred in New York on the
lst ultimo. The sad announcement
will lie read with regret by all read
ers Of the CHIEF who visited the Ply
moath and made the acquaintance of
her estimable commander upon the
occasion of that vessels trip up the
Mississippi in 1877. Commodore Bar
rett was born near New Orleans III
1928 and consequently was So years
of age at the time of his death.

Secretary Sherman made speech
at Mansfield, Ohio, one Cay recently,
and in the course of remarks referring
to his presidential aspiration, he said !:
There is one condition, scarcely neces-
sary to state, upon which my candidacy
depends, and that is, if the Republicans
of Ohio do not fairly and fully in their
convention express their preference for
me and support me with substantial
unanimity in the National convention.
my name will not be presented to that
convention with my consent.
The speaker further stated that he
would cheerfally abide by the choice
of the convention, whomsoeyer its
candidate might be.

Chas. DeYoung, one Of the proprie
tors of the San Francisco Chronicle,
was assassinated by a son Of Mr.. Kali
loch, in the Chronicle Office, on the
23rd of April. The provocation fo4
the murder was the appearance Of a
pamphlet reviving an old scandal with
which Kalloch had been connected in
Boston while he had charge Of a church
there. Young Kallocl' was arrested
with the smoking revolver in his hand
and has been committed to prison
without benefit Of bail. DeYonng was
born in Natchitoclles, La, in 1915.
He and lis brother established the
Chronicle in 1869 and made it the
leading newspaper Of the Pacific coast.

that originated from the action Of

Of that parish are black men, aud it
was only the vote of Madison that
prevented the election of Senator of

vitation to bulldozers to invade East
Carroll as a number Of other parishes
