A Dead Shot for Consumption.

Mr.. o. @. Volckaert, who has recent
ly come to Brookhaven from Arkansas,
claims that he has a sure cure for con-
sumption, generally regarded as an in
durable malady. Mr.. Volckaert is not
a physician, and attributes the cures
he effects to the merits of the remedy
he uses, rather than to any scientific
knowledge of his own. 1t is purely
vegetable preparation which he obtains
from Europe. Any person who would
like to confer with him on the subject
and be satisfied with testimonials, can
find him at the Excelsior Hotel.

known to the scientific world for up
wards of twenty years, is awakening
interest at last. The Times Democrat

to be-a solid wall four miles long it
is one of the most remarkable ruins of
the world. The Hazlehurst Courier

prehistoric ruin and the University of
Chicago will shortly send an eXpedi-
