BEWARE OF CONTINENTS FOR
 CATARRH THAT CONTAIN F..
 MERCURY

As mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the whole system when entering it through the mucous surfaces. Such articles should never be used except on pre- scriptivns from reputable physi- clans, as the damage they will do is ten fold to the good you can possibly derive from them. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufact- ured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,, To- ledo, O., contains no mercury, and is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mu- cous surfaces of the system. In buying Halls Catarrh Cure be sure you get the genuine. It is taken internally and made in To- ledo, Ohio, by F. J. Cheney & Co.
 Sold by Druggists. Price 75c. per bottle.

Poems OF OLD MEXICO.

George b. Paul in the Pilgrim.
The Mexican peon is the backbone of

large quantity of tortillas. He works
from six to six, enjoying in the mean
time his two simple meals. In general,

NORTH cARoLINA's DEBT.
Committee of Bondholders Makes a
New Proposition.

| Special to the New Orleans Times Demo-
crat.
New York.-The Sun says: The
committee of North Carolina bond
| holders has issued a circular in ref
erence to the special tax debt.
The proposition is to accept new 2
per cent bonds for the amount of the
principal of the present debt, cancel
ing the accrued interest, which
amounts to twice the principal The
methods proposed for coercing the
state into this arrangement are also
set forth
One-third of the securities could be
transferred to the state of New York
or to foreign governments and judg-
ments could be obtained by those
plaintiffs in the supreme court of the
United States. After all this deple-
ton of her resources the state would
remain subject to two-thirds of this
liability still unsatisfed, which in
time could be sold or disposed of to
foreign governments BY the accept
ance of the bondholders proposition
the total of North Cardinals liability
on the special tax bonds would be at
once absolutely reduced to one-third
OF its present amount, being the sum
o. the principal alone.
1t is also pointed out that 100000
year required to pay the interest ON
the issue of bonds is only one-twen-
tieth of one per cent of the assessed
valuation of the property of the state.
Even this moderate payment would be
lessened by the states receipts from

son 1t does not seem suitable to put the
usual respectful prefix Miss" or Mrs"
