TUSKEhEE, Ala July 29. 1870.
DR.. G. j. N1offett-My Dear Sir. Jus-
tice to you demands That I should give
you my experience with vour excellent
medicine, TEETHINA. Our little girl.
just thirteen months old, has had much
trouble teething. Every remedy was
exhausted in the shape of prescriptions
from family physicians. Her bow els
continued to pass Off pure blood and
burning fever continued for days at a
time. Her life was almost de,paired of.
Her mother deter mined to try TEETH
INA, and IL q day or two there was q
great change-new lie had returned-the
bowels r3STI were regular, and, thanks to
TEETHINA, the little babe is now doing
we'll. Yours, &c, ID. w. NfCIVE2,

The great secret of merchants success
is In buying his goods right. Sullivan
Hardware Co. have regular Wholesale
Department, and since opening same
their trade has increased in volume vepg
rapidly. ln this age Of sharp competi-
ton, merchants are looking more closely
after prices, and they are finding that
they can buy at wholesale from this house
cheaper than by sending their orders
away from home and paying freights.
The reason for this Ia that the Sullivan
Hardware Co. are always wide awake and
make contracts ahead with tho manufac-
turer direct; besides they employ resi-
dent buyer In New York, with branch
offices In other cities. who keep in touch
with all large factories, which gives this
house the advantage of knowing just
where their spot caah orders will ohoain
the lowest prices. Il is much more satis-
factory for merchants to buy in q home
market when they can save money bv do
ing 80, and that Ia what Sullivan Hard
ware Co. propose tn do for their trade.
Anything in the Hardware line can be
bought from them as low, often muoh
To- .er, than the same class of goods are
offered by other wholesale houses. II
you have not Investigated this fact they
stand ready to proveit If you will give
them your orders.

Too rlany Runaways.

Charley Wellsanlt, the rattlehead-
ed Dutchman, left his team standing
in the street Friday. Presently -
small zephyr came swinging along
lifting, rearranging and shifting all
the loose garbage, paper, old hats,
socks and discarded boots and shoes,
and like flash away went the HOSES
and wagon, first speeding up main st I,
thence in a westerly direction past
Horns blacksmith sh bp aud with
mad plunge off into the rocks near
the futile carpenter shop where the
runaways found the loaded vehicle
hard to pull so they hiked back onto
second street via opera house, turning
the corner at the Pioneer drug store
and with the wagon tongue down and
the rim OF one wheel gone, they ran
into a crowd OF hundred or more peo-
pie near the Ritzvile Hotel and were
caught. Luckily no body was hurt.
II this habit OF leaving teams standing
loose or poorly hitched in some inn
proper place is not checked we will be
called on to chronicle different story
some OF these days. SO much pure
carelessness and cussedness jeopardiz-
ing human life and property should
not be tolerated ami il heavy fine
were impoled these smashups would
not be so frequently happening from
sheer indifference and neglect.

Cowes, May 6.-Lipton's cup chal.

Shamrock l entered the Solent at

Both carried full racing canvass crown

The National Guard To
Be Subject
TO PRESIDENTS CALL
Will Be in Reality a Regular
I, Army

Washington, D. c., May 6. - The
war department is about to take up
the question of securing closer rela-
tion between the national guards of
the several states and the national
government. Propositions have been
discussed by national guard officers
and recommendations made to AS
sistant Secretary Of War Sanger who
is particularly interested. The ques-
tion before the war department is how
to place greater responsibility on the
militia with view Of securing force
that will be at ali times ready for the
use Of the government in case of
emergency.
An army officer today said it was
not so important that the question
should be settled in any particular
way as that it should be settled.
A suggestion that comes from an
important state official, who has been
prominent In militia affairs, is that,
first of all, the states should recognize
the right of Congress to make legisla-
tion tor the state militia organiza-
tions. This right is given to Con-
gress in the constitution but it has
never been openly exercised, and the
recognition OF 1t is considered the
first essential to an improved nation
al guard. The government, accord
ing to this official, should be able to
rely on the militia as force auxl iary
to the regular army, and the militia
should recognize the responsibility
that this change would mean. Con-
gress could then enact such laws as
would properly reg ulate the auxiliary
states.
1t is proposed by this national guard
officer that both the President and the
state officials shall have the power to
order the several national guards to
the front, which would give the gov
ernment the use of the militia when
necessary, anu at the same time would
not interfere with the rights of the
state.
1t is pointed out that the militia
should correspond to the rank and file
of the army, and that the state artil-
lery forces should be trained for their
work in the harbor forts and receive
instruction in the handling of the
guns which they might be called upon
to handle in case of war. This feature,
it is declared, would add responsibility
to the guardsmen and force them to
recognize that their work was of par
ticular value to the government.

"Twenty thousand of our citizens
