Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion Of the ear. There rs only
one way TO cure deafness, and that il by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by
an inAamed condition Of the mucous hnlEg
OF the Eustschian Tube. When this tube Is
infamed you have rumbling sound or I'M
perfect hearing. and when 1t Is entirely
closed Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever: nine cases out OF ten are
caused by Cstarrh, which is nothing but an
inhamed condition Of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any

TUESDAY EVENING. JULY %. 1867.

THERE SEEMS to be q great deal OF
unnecessary AGO between the State cours
of North Carolina and Virginia and the
federal courts over the two-cent railroad
rate bill. While the Gazette is an earn
eat advocate of States rights sll must
admit that the United States Supreme
Court is the final court of settlement In
the land and that as all parties to the
controversy claim that they are anxious
to get the case before that tribunal why,
ia conscience sake, don't they peacefully
strive to that end and stop ali this fuss
and feathers. Kicking at railroads Is a
,mmon practice among some people
who seek political preferment or have
Interior aims, but they must recognize
the fact that railroads have rights that
oilers must respect There are millions
upon millions of money invested in rail-
roads in this country and it is the duty
of these who manage these properties TO
protect them and the interests OF those
who have thus invested their money.

elce with President Roosevelt: "IVe
clme to the conclusion, after the talk

This is the same old promise that is
msde by the republicans every year only
TO be broken the next. They will not
revise the tariff before presidential cleo
ton, neither will they revise it afterwards
