started TOT Canada 10 aSSlSJ ms countrymen in their extremity. But his efforts were of no avail, end it was soon found necessary to take Cp tbe line of retreat.
 It was the dead of winter, and only necessity sanctioned moving the troops. The terror of pursuit and the rigor of the season furnished sufficient cause fol alarm and haste. Colonel Warner remained with the rear of the army, and aided them in many ways most effectually as he was a man well posted in caring for the sick and this knowledge now came into excellent use.
 He must keep the army in motion, not a day must be lost, and yet he WAS without any chest of medicines. But he understood the medicinal use ofroots and herbs, and of proper care at critical times, and with these allies, he made an efTecsdal fight against dis ease amc2E his men.
 When Ticonderoga was reached and the roll called, thanks to Seth Warner but few vacancies in the ranks appeared.
 Col. Warner saved the lives of hun dreds of men in this way, and he did q noble work, but it remained for his namesake, H. II. Warner, head of Warner's Safe Cure establishment, to give the same kind of remedies then used to the people of to- o-day, tn "Warner's Log Cabin Remedies" These remedies have been adopted after thor ugh trial and investigation, and they :.e remedies of established reputation. Being whey vegetable, they can be used without any fear as to the results.
 Among the new remedies is Sar- saparil!a for the blood, Hops and Buchu for the stomach and digestion, Cough land Consumption Remedy, Scalpine for the head and hair, Rose Cream for that terrible disease, ca- tarrh, a Log Cabin Liver Pill, a Log Cabin Plaster and an Extract for in sernal and external use. Our readers may rest assured that there is merit in every article.

ANNEXATION OF CANADA.
The Disastrous Attempt to Accom-. plish It by Force-A Famous
 Retreat.

The present agitation concerning the relations between Canada and the United States recalls the time when the annexation of that country was proposed to be brought about by force of arms. The project was entrusted to the brave General Montgomery, assisted by the famous patriots, Col onels Ethan Allen and Seth Warner. While engaged in this invasion Ethan Allen was taken prisoner by the Brit lsh and sent 10 England, where he experienced very harsh treatment.
 It was Colonel Warner. who twice conducted his men safely home, though the march was constantly surround' l by dangers. Once Mont gomery sent them home because their time was out, and though they were willing to continue in service, they were without sufficient clothing, and none could be had in that country.
 Colonel Warner had hardly arrived home before he heard that Mont gomery had been killed, and the cause, as well as the lives of the men, were put in great jeopardy He col lected his men again and at once

Pittsburg Landing.

The Messrs. Meeks of Pittsbarg
Landing responded very literally
in the division of their lands and
otherwise to encourage the build
ing of a railroad from COrinth to
their town; and yet they accept
their disappointment gracefully
and philosophically. They are
doing very satisfactory business
as the case now stands, and
knowing that their fine situation
for a town with it's beautiful
river front will not get away
but await the rising OF
another railrord tied, they are
calm and serene, waiting for some
thing to turn up. Our latest adj
vice from that point is that val
liable iron ore has been found in
abundance, beyond the river
nearer than heretofore supposed.
1t is not improbable that Pitts
burg Landing may yet vie with
Florence in the working of the
Wayne and Hardin counties iron
ores.-Corinth, Miss. Herald.

The PrOhibitiOnists.

The Executive Committee of
the Prohibitionists met in Nash
vile last Thursday and nominated
j. @. Johnson, of Memphis, as the
Prohibition candidate for Govern.
or. Mr.. johnson is about 30
years of age. For many years he
was a prominent figure in fiuan-
cial circles in Memphis but some
years ago he retired from business.
For a long time he has sustained the
Hope Night School, in which 100
boys are pupils. This school he
first established by giving a
building and employing five teach
ers. The Woman's Mission Home
of Memphis was established by
his wife, and since its foundation
Mr.. Johnson has regularly contrib
uted 800 per month to its run
ming expenses. He gave a great
deal to the prohibition campaign
fund last fall. Mr.. johnson, it is
said, does not pretend to be an
orator, but is capable of making
a vigorous campaign. He will put
several able speakers in the field.
