The Specific Co., Atlanta, Ga.: Gentlemen—One of your repre- sentatives has just asked me about your medicine, and having used it I amin position to say something about it. Niné years ago scrofula made its appearance in my family. Two of my children—one a boy of six and the other a girl of four years —were terribly afflicted with this horrible disease. My family physi- cian treated the malady for a time, but with no success. In my county paper I saw your medicine advertis- | ed, and began using it, and in no time improvement was observed. My children to-day are free from the trouble, and am never without a bottle of S. S. S. in my house. ] Joan WitiiaMs. | Treatise on blood and skin diseases | | mailed free.

That is, have not all three advocated centralization, high tariff and abolishment of slav- ery? Ain't the old anti-federalist and republican and the present dem- ecratic parties the same? Did not the Know Nothings join the republi- cans? Was the valorem tax 19 per cent or 23 per cent in 1860? The pedigree of the present re- publican party is (1) federalist, (2) whig, (3) know nothing and aboli- tionist, (4) republican or radical. As parties, the federalists and whigs professed to support the constitu- tion; the abolitionists were first to take party action against the consti- tutional guarantees of slave proper- ty. The anti-federalist-democratic- republican party under Jefferson be- came the democratic party under Jackson. The average ad valorem tariff rate in 1860 was 19.67 per cent. The Dual Death of a Duel.

Kidd's treasure and who turn- | el up an iron kettle full of Spanish siver coins on the beach adjoining Ws farm, opposite the summer re- wrt, Westport, arrived at his home in Johnson yesterday with his wealth. He sad that two years ago he be- came he possessor of = piece of parchupnt that apparently had served }s a drumhead and which had bee. converted into a chart pur- porting 0 describe the location cf three lot of buried gold, silver and other valubles cached by a pirate years ago The lines were drawn as though wh a sharpened stick. On the chart ¢re three points designat- ing the bum] places of the wealth. The startin, place was a rock on Horse Neckpoint, a wild piece of jand. Whet this parchment was found he wassnfident it was a val- uable documét. He determined that no one shuld know of his plans, and withot imparting a hint of what he was akut, began opera- tions at the poit indicated. He readily found the rd;, but his labors during the summer * 1887 were not rewarded. During fe past summer he continued cautiouy and patient- ly and worked his wa¥n the course directed, and last Momyy made the discovery. He says that will be an ‘easy matter to find thebalance of the wealth.

Little Rock, Ark., Nov. 5.—At Redfield Saturday deputy United States marshal Faulkenburg arrest- ed a negro named John Clearia, a fraudulent pension sharp, and com- mitted him to jail here for examina- tion Wednesday. There is a regular colony of negroes around Redfield who were in the federal army in one capacity or another, and Clearia made each one believe he could get a pension. He charged $10 in ad- vance for each case and swindled a lotof them. He isa shrewd negro, a stranger, refusing to divulge his former location and has a reeeipt book showing that he has defrauded unsuspecting darkeys of hundreds of dollars by this trick. The Fever Record. Jacksonville, Nov. 4.—The report from Enterprise to-day is most en- couraging. There are no new cases and no deaths. At Fernandina the yellow fever report for the 24 hours ending at 6 o'clock to-day is: New cases, 10; deaths, 2. Of the new patients, two are white. The fever seems to be abating slowly, but is gathering up the few whites who have so far es- caped, and although the cases so far have not proved fatal, yet the list under treatment includes quite a number who are and have been quite low and are recovering slowly. President Neal Mitchell of the board of health reports only 11 new cases of yellow fever, of which 6 are white; deaths, 3; total cases to date, 4,277; total deaths, 364. sumption and post office address.

The commissioner of the depart- ment of agriculture, in his report, says Missouri's corn crop is one of the largest ever raised in the state. The average yield of wheat per acre is above the yearly average, not- withstanding many counties im southwest Missouri report a very low yield. A decline in area of wheat sown in the more thoroughly cultivated portions of the state re- sulted in an increased yield. The average yield of oats is large but the quality was seriousiy affected by excessive rains during harvest time.
