A G. e Cure

Is a purely vegetable bitter and power
1pl tonic, and is warranted a speedy and
certain cure for Fever and Ague, Chills
and Fever, Intermittent or Chill Fe.
YER, Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague,
Periodical or Bilious Fever, and ali
malarial disorders. In miasmatic dis
tricts, the rapid pulse, coated tongue, thirst
lassitrae, loss of appetite, pain in the back
and loins, and coldness of the spine and
extremities. are only premonitions Of
severer symptoms, which terminate in the
ague paroxysm, succeeded by high fever
and profuse persplration.
1t is startling fact, that qlinine, arse.
mic and other poisonous minerals, form the
basis OF most of the Fever and Ague
Preparations,"" Specifics" "Syrups," and
"..Tonics," in the market. The prepare
lions made from these mineral poisons,
although they are palatable, and may
break the chill, do not cure, but leave the
malarial and their own drug poison in
the system, producing quinism, dizziness,
ringing in the ears, headache, vertigo, and
other disorders more formidable than the
disease they were intended to cure.
AYERS AGUE CURE thoroughly eradicates
these noxious poisOns from the system.
and always cures the severest cases. It
contains no quinine, mineral, or any thing
that could injure the most delicate pa
tent; and its browning excellence, above
its certainty to cure, is that it leaves the
system as free from disease as before the
attack. 80 Fs@
: For Liver Complaints, AYERS AGrp
CURE, by direct action on the liver an
hillary apparatus, drives out the poisons
which produce these complaints, and slim
ulates the system to vigorous, healthy
condition.
We warrant 1t when taken according to
directions. i4sa.

A BASnFUL LOVER,

The Devastation in NIichigan-TerribIe
 Suffering Among the Homeless People.
 DETROIT, Mich, Sept. 9.-The fire crisis in Huron and Sanilac counties has passed, but
 sickening details continue to come in Two
 hundred and fifteen families have been burn
 ed out in the towns of Marleste, Flynn, Ar gyle, Evergreen, Moore, Lamatte and Elmer and thirty-two deaths are reported. The fires in the burned districts are mostly out now, and the homeless people, disconsolate, many with their eyes burned out, disfgured around the piles of ashes where but few days ago they dwelt in comfort. Many per sons are missing and the exact loss cannot be known for some days yet. It is said that no less than twenty seven dead bodies have al- ready been found between Badaxe and Port Hope.
 Between Badaxe and Port Hope the total loss of life will probably reach two hundred Fires are still burning in some of the larger swamps of Sanilac county. Dispatches from Marquette say there was rain there this morn ing and that village is out of danger. Trains are now running regularly on the Port Hu- ron and Northwestern road. The Neaos says From all over come messages of aid and com fort, those of 8 substantial kind being for warded. Detroit has already subscribed about $9, GOO, and a public meeting is to be held tonight. Grand Rapids held a big meeting to-day. Jackson sends $1, ,OOO, and the upper towns in proportion. dispatch from Cairo says the rain yesterday did much good, and was hailed with joy by the strick- en people. Reports coming in show that the facts are worse than expected, and many have suspended business to aid the unfortu- nate. Relief is contributed freely, but the outlook for the future is dark Most of those insured were in the Farmers Mutual of Tuscola, Sanilac county and it is feared the company will not be able to pay more than 20 cents on the dollar. The rain was only cupful compared with the ocean yet needed. The meeting of leading citizens last night decided to apply to the Governor for relief. Port Austin, Port Crescent and Grand Port are safe, the danger being over No more danger is expected at Port Hope.

The execution was private, but thousands of peo- pie were in town. The doomed men all slept well last night except McGraw, who was very restless. He sang and prayed before going to bed, but ate with relish this morning. They all seemed resigned to their fate and confessed their guilt, but said their lives were threatened. The Indians professed in nocence. The three white men said they ex- pected to meet in another world.
