Wherever beats a Soatatru heart today. says the Memphis Appeal If yesterday there will be the eulogy of tears. Jeffer- son Davis is dead. As the news shall fly, so shall it bring grief. He who stood the majestic eSemplar of great and glorious cause; he who sacrificed his all upon the altar of obligation to his countrymen he who most conspicn- ously represented principle for which hundreds of thousands laid down their lives is no more. He has gone to his bright reward. Of the monumental and commanding figures Of the war. he was the last to survive. Lincoln died nearly quarter of century ago. Lee and Grant are in their graves. Now passes to the tomb the revered chief tain of the confederacy. He lived tn find that the affection o. those whom he had so bravely and loyally served grew as the years went by He lived to find himself more generously re- galdsd by those whom he had fought So grandly has he borne himself since 1865 that the whole nation has grown to admire him. It was his pecu jar satisfaction to find that his devotIon to a cause he held dear had stilled the voice of hate. While accepting the arbitrament of the sword, his faith in the ultimate acceptation of the funda- mental principle for which he had fought abated no whit. Yet he in- truded neither himself nor h opinions save when challenged. A Jeffersonian democrat and strict constructionist his contributions to the press in recent years have accomplished much to warn patriots against destructive political tendencies. He has been an adviser in the South, and monitor for the North. He has asked no personal honor or re- cognition- But from the place of his retirement there has shone beacon which those who love their country have done well to heed. Around his bier today there will assemble in spirit millions of devoted and affec,ionate hearts. In every Southern household some tribute of reverence will be paid and throughout the Southland will fall . shadow.

Ayers Cherry Pectora|,
 PREPARED BY pr. j. c. Aver < Co.,, Lowell, Mass. prios Al six bottles. e. Worth v . bottle.
HE SENT EIGHTY MILES FOR IT Milo Page. of San Bernardino. Cal.

HE SENI EICli MILES FOX IT.
 Milo Page, of San Bernardino, Cal, on Sept. 9, writes as follows:
 In 1858 was taken with bilious col sc, being then seventeen years old. Yearly attacks followed, and at length they became more frequent.
 While prostrated by a severe attack, . friend induced me to take large dose of Walkers Vinegar Bitters, Old Style, probably four wine glasses full. In less than half an hour 1 was free from pain. followed this up with three wine-glasses day--one, half nn hour before each meal-until used Sp the bottle.
 For over seven years was perfectly free from bilious collie, but in the fall of '79 was engaged in mining in Ne vada, and the coarse food ate brought on a sharp attack. 1 was far from any drug store, but despatched courier eighty miles for bottle of Vinegar Bitters
 When he returned I was unable to speak, but put the bottle to my lips, took two swallows. and in twenty minutes the pain left me. finished the bottle as before, taking three doses daily, and for nine years afterward 1 was perfectly free from the dreaded disease.
 A month ago it returned, but trying he old remedy, Vinegar Bitters, was cured. as before.
 write this because you do not es- pecially recommend Vinegar Bitters for bilious collie. Only those who have suffered the agonies of this disease, can understand what d boon sure cure is, and in Old Style Vinegar Bitters you have the best, and perhaps the only real remedy known.
 In reply to Mir. Page we will say that Vinegar Bitters cures hundreds of diseases; we have not the space 10 cat Mlogue them. and perhaps if we pub lished them those unacquainted by ex- perience with our valuable remedy, might doubt it's efficacy still, as so many worthless preparations are thrust oil the market, and puffed in so many extravagant ways.
 The fact remains, however, that those who have been accustomed to take Vinegar Bitters for any length of time, are hale and hearty, whether they are young or old. Those who doubt and fail to take it, are likely to fall into all manner of ailments, great and small :. Vinegar Bitters, both Old and New Styles, keep those who take them fresh fair, healthy and young looking, and when We once gain customer, we keep them always, like Mir. Page, who sent eighty miles for Vinegar Bitters, and it was almos, q ride for life.
 The New Style Vinegar Bitters is a Beautiful, clear, dark reddish color, and extremely pleasant to the taste.

Ir has been almost three weeks since the puny and puerile country press has accused tho Register of "slaadering our peoplc.-Statc Register.
 It is certainly not because the organ has failed in it's usual amount of sland- CT and abuse, but rather, we think, from the fact that decent newspapers have become sick of reprinting the villanious and malicious misrepresenta- tions appearing in the said organ at Little Rock. The Register has never yet shown disposition to be fair and honorable.
