THE NEXT GREAT COTTON EXPOsI-
TON.


The Vicksburg Planters JournoL for the
present month has an article on "The
Worlds Great Cotton Centennial Exposi-
ton" that should receive the earnest atten-
tiOnof every person connected with the cot
ton business in any of its stages, or in the
preparation or manufacture of materials or
implements used in the preparation or man
ufacture OF cotton. The Planters Journal is
the authoritative organ OF the National Cot
ton Planters Association, and its announce
ment is official that in 1884 grand exposi-
ton, to be called the Worlds Cotton Centen-
NAL Exposition, is TO be held. At the con-
vention that has recently been held in Little
Rock the holding of such an exposition was
decided upon, and the attention of the whole
country and of other lands where the cotton
trade is of Importance, is invited to the cub
lect. Recent as the meeting of the conven-
ton is, already number of manufacturers
have declared their eagerness TO embrace the
opportunity of exhibiting. The principal
object OF the exposition is to display cotton
in all its forms, and all machinery and i'm
plements connected with it, but while first,
cotton does not exclude all else. Every i'm
plement and method connected with farming
ur,d Turning fabriCs aud products, and
lated inventions and devices, and all that is
new in adaptation and discovery that is of
interest 10 the people of The South will be
welcomed. Where is the Worlds Cotton
Exposition Of 1884 to be held? This ques-
ton is of great interest and several cities
are DESTROYS of securing the great occasion
10 themselves. Everything points out New
Orleans as the proper place for such an ex-
position, but as New York allowed Phila-
delphia to take the great Centennial, so
New Orleans may be wanting in the proper
ambition on this occasion, which will give
opportunity to other cities. Several places
are mentioned; among these Memphis, Mo
bile, Charleston, Montgomery, Atlanta, Sa
vannah, Nashville, Richmond and Louis
vile. The privilege of bein: selected as
the spot for so great an exhibition, which
will everywhere excite attention, is great
one, and it will be conferred where the in
ducements offered to obtain the preference
are such as TO show that the preference will
be valued and made the most of. The whole
South will be organized to prepare for this
great occasion, and it is proposed to raise
from s., 00O, coo 10 100000 to make the
exposition, its buildings and its facilities all
they should be.

AYERS CATHARTIC PILLS.
BY Universal Accord,

AYERS CATIIARTIC PILLS are the best
of all purgatives for family use. They
are the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, and
their extensive use, by physicians in
their practice, and by all civilized na-
tions, proves them the best and most
effectual purgative Pill that medical
science can devise. Being purely veg
etable no harm can arise from their
use, and being sugar-coated, they are
pleasant to take. In intrinsic value
and curative powers no other Pills
can be compared with them; and every
person, knowing their virtues, will
employ them, when needed. They
keep the system in perfect order, and
maintain in healthy action the whole
machinery of life. Mild, searching and
effectual, they are especially adapted
to the needs of the digestive apparatus,
arrangements of which they prevent
and cure, if timely taken. They are
the best and safest physic to employ
for children and weakened constitu-
tiOns, where a mild but efectual
cathartic is required.
