SWEPT INTO THE STREAM.
One Thousand Acres Of Land and a
"Right Smart Of
Bears"

On the deck of big Mississippi
steamboat stood an aged Southern
planter. Indicating by sweep of his
arm the waters the boat was passing
over, he said to passenger from the
North: "When I was twelve years old
l killed my first bear on II new planta-
ton my father was then cutting out of
a forest that grew directly over the
waters of this bend. That was mighty
good plantation, and there was right
smart of bears there, too But that
one thousand acres of land went into
the Mississippi river many years ago.
1t is putting no strain upon the fig
ure to say that great forests of youth
full hope, womanly beauty and manly
strength are swept in the same way
every year into tie great, turbid tor.

defend their own iuterests-the most
precious of which is health. That gone
all is gone Disease is simple, but to
reck|essnes or ignorance the simplest
things might as we'll be complex as
proposition in Comic Sections. As the
huge Western rivers, which SO often
food the cities along their shores, arise
in few mountain springs, so all our
ailments Can be traced to Impure blood
and small group of disordered organs.
The most effective aud inclusive
remedy for disease is Parker's Tonic.
1t goes to the sources of pain and
weakness. In response to its actioli,
the liver, kidneys, stomach and heart
begin their work afresh, and disease is
driven out. The Tonic is not, howev-
or, an intoxicant, but cures desire
for strong drink. Have you dyspep-
STA, Rheumatism, or troubles which
have refused to yield to other agents 2

THAT gigantic swindle and rob-
berry of the United States Treasury
known as the Pension bill, comes up
again with its monstrous demand for
$40, 900, which, in addition to the
surplus of s55, 100000 now ON hand to
the credit of that fund, will make $685.
100000, which are to be extorted from
The people of the whole country to pay

and bounty jumpers who were hired to
shoot and kill one-half of those who
now pay the greater portion of the tax
to support this horde of pensioners.

YIELDS GRACEFULLY. The St.
Francisville Feliciana Sentinel, a
strong Ogden paper, hoists the Demo
cratic State ticket, and accepts it pa
triotically. Under the head of ''The
Decree of Fate" it remarks:
The hour has come when political
predictions must be less to US than
principles, the peace andprosperity of
the State more than vain resistance.
We congratulate Gov. McEnery upon
his success and do honestly and sin
cerely, realizing that this is no time
for party chickering's; the Democrats
Of Louisiana have too much at stake
to fume and fuss about individual pre-
ferences. Since the majority rules, it
is certain the losing faction must SUBJ
NIT gracefully to the decree of fate,
and as this is inevitable fet us give
the ticket which is Democratic, our
heartiiest support. We have the con-
ISOLATION of knowing that we made a
good fight and a strong one for Gen.
Ogden, and as he is the first one to &C
cept his defeat with dignity and due
consideration for his own self-respect,
his constituents may we'll follow his
example. Let our cry henceforth be,
"The party one and undivided" Let
us not be politicians but patriots; not
partisans but staunch Democrats
publica our motto, and united action
our strength.

Is purely vegetable bitter and powerful
tonic, and is warranted speedy and GER
tain cure for Fever and Ague, Chflls
and Fever, Intermittent or Chill
Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague,
Periodical or Bilious Fever, and all
malarial disorders. In miasmatic dis
tricts, the rapid pulse, coated tongue,
thirst, lassitude, loss of appetite, pain in
the back and loins, and GOODNESS of the
spine and extremities, are only premoni-
tons OF severer symptoms which termin-
ate in the ague paroxysm, succeeded by
high fever and profuse perspiration.
1t is a startling fact, that quinine, ar
senic, and other poisonous minerals form
the basis Of most of the Fever and Ague
Preparations" "Specifics," "Syrups,"
and "Tonics," in the market. The prep
arations 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 injlre the most delicate pa
tient; and its browning excellence, above
its certainty to cure, is that it leaves tho
system as free from disease as before tho
attack.
For Liver Complaints, AYERS AGUE
CURE, by direct action on tho liver and
hillary apparatus, drives out the poisons
which produce these complaints, and
stimulates the system to a vigorous,
healthy condition.
We warrant it when taken according
to directions.

AMONG the many things needed by
San Antonio is an opera house capable
oFseating $500 people, and she needs it
badly. San Antonio could easily have
secured one Of the Democratic conven-
tlons had there been hall suitable and
large enough TO accommodate that body,
but there was little use in talking upon
the subject for that reason. A State
Democratic convention would be equal
to almost wool clip, so far as regards
the expenditure Of money, and of great
value otherwise by the presence Of SO
many representatives here at one time.
