Lord Beaconsfield has selected the
Marquis uf Lome to succeed Lord
Dufferin as Governor General of
Canada, and the Marquis has for-
mally acccptcd. The Ottowa, (Can-
ada) Citizen, says as one of the roy-
al family by marriage the Governor
will be cordially received. The
Marquis married the Queen's daugh-
ter.
A special irom Fort Clark to the
San Antonio Express, says a band
of Mexicans crossed the river Fri-
day night, the 27th, near San Felipe
and fired about forty shots into the
house of Mr. Jim Thomas, who
went out the next morning to "look
for the trail, and was also fired at
six or seven times.
The Kansas city Journal, the lead-
ing administration paper west of St.
Louis, says: "It is curious how na-
tions differ about the same things.
The press of Mexico and her public
men assert confidently that now that
their popple are united, the Mexican
armies could, in the event of war,
easily conquer the Americanos
And the American press and army
have the exact opposite belief."
The treatment of Indians in the
Nation is certainly different from that
practiced in the Northwest. And
the results are different, though the
material to work on is the same.
A correspondent writing of the ar-
rival of the Nez Pcrccs in the Na-
tion, en route to their reservation,
says: "A few years since the Mo-
docs araived at our depot, wild, vi-
cious, captive Indians, and yet to-
day several Modoc wagons driven by
Modocs, assisted in transporting the
Nez Perces to 'the Nation'—all well
dressed, well behaved, sober, indus-
trious, and differing from the white
men in color only. The contrast
between them and the new arrivals
is great, but time, under the efficient
management ot Agent Jones, will
produce like results with the Nez
1'u ccs ."
Simple ahd inexpensive as it is, Glenn's
Sulphur Soap is a most efficient remedy
for certain obnoxious diseases, to be
cured of which those afllicted with them
pften spend thousands of dollars to no
ourpose.

The dispatches tell us that a circu-
lar has been issued by the treasury
department at Washington which de-
clares that under provisions of section
3584, no foreign gold or silver shall
be legal tender in payment of debts.
Everybody knew this probably, but
the same circular says Mexican dol-
lars are worth 9S 1-2 cents as bullion.
Now dosen't it occur to our readers
that the banks have inaugurated a
nice speculation when they discount
Mexican dollars ten per cent? If a
Mexican dollar will bring 981 -2
cents at the mint it is worth more
than 90 cents in Texas.
The prompt action taken by the
Mayor of New Orleans to break up
the ice ring is commendable. Taking
advantage of the extreme heat and
the appearance of yellow fever, the
Crescent Ice Company assumed a
short supply of ice and put up the
price to sixty dollars a ton, a price
which deprived the poorer classes
of this much needed article. The
Mayor at once telegraphed North
for ice, and is now receiving an
abundance, which he is furnishing
to the people at cost and carriage—
about sixteen dollars a ton. The
Mayor will probably continue the
good woik during the heated term.
Brown's customers will bo pleased to
hear that he has just received a large
freBh stock of the celebrated Vanguard
cigars; also, the Don Martinoes, and the
Leading Half Dime cigars. The Van-
guard and Leading Half Dime cigars are
the best cigars 6old in Denison for five
cents. The Don Martinoes are a pure Ha-
vana cigar of the best make and retails
for fifteen cents. They are sold only at
Brown's Bazaar, and Brown & Webb's
book store. Do not fail to try them.

Consumption Cured.
An old physician, retired from practice,
having had placed in hif hands by an
East India missionary the formula of a
simple vegetable remedy, for the speedy
and permanent cure ot consumption,
brorchitis, catarrh, asthma, and all
throat and lung affections, also a positive
and radical cure for nervous debility and
all nervous complaints, after having
tested its wonderful curative powers in
thousands of cases, has felt it his duty to
make it known to his suffering fellows.
Actuated by this motive, and a desire to
relieve human suffering, I will send, free
of charge, to all who desire it, this recipe,
with full directions for preparing and us-
ing, in German, French, or English.
Sent by mail by addressing with stamp,

Excessive Heat
And unwholesome diet at this seaion of
the year may speedily carry you to the
grave. Parker's Ginger Tonic, by Its
eorrective action on the entire digestive
apparatus, will not only unfailingly cure
Diarrhoea, Dysentery, Cholera Infantum,
Colic, Cramps, spasms, etc., but will pre-
vent these dangerous disorders from at-
tacking the system. It may save your
life and should always be kept in the
house. This pleasant remedy is un-
equaled for teething children and nursing
mothers. Possessing many additional
virtues of other valuable roots, it is far
superior to Esccnces of Ginger, without
their constipating effects, and while more
invigorating than liquors, never intoxi-
cates, nor creates any desire for stimu-
lamts. It cures Dyspepsia and its varied
symptoms Headache, Nervousness, Pal-
pitation of the Heart, Wakefulness, Sour
Stomach, Costiveness, Liver Disoiders,
Furred Tongue, Low Spirits, Neuralgic
and Rheumatic Pains, enables you to en-
joy the fruits and vegetables of the season
without fear, and gives comfort after a
hearty meal. Buy a bottle of your drug-
gist, W. M. Hanna & Co., Denison,
Texas, or a sample bottle at 15 cents, and
test its extraordinary merits.

Livor is King.
The Liver is the imperial organ of the
whole human system, as it controls the
life health and happiness of man, When
it is disturbed in its proper actio^, all
kinds of ailments are the natural" result.
The digestion of food, the movements of
the heart and blood, the action of the
brain and nervous system, arc all imme-
diately connected with the workings of
the liver. It has been successfully proved
that Green's August Flower is unequalcd
in curing all persons afflicted with dvs-
peneia or liver complaint, and all the
numerous symptoms which result from
an unhealthy condition of the liver and
stomach. Sample bottles to trv 10 cents.
Positively sold in all towns on'the West-
ern Continent. Three doses will prove
that, it is just what you want.
—
The Road to Health.
Clense the stomach, bowels and blood
from all the acrid corrupt and offensive
accumulations and you remove the cause
of most diseases, and thus preserve good
health, and, also save large doctors bills.
The most effectual and reliable remedy
for this purpose is Simmons' Liver Reg-
ulator, purely vegetable. The trial of one
bottle or package will prove to the pa-
tient the virtue of this mcbicine.

Messrs Sanford, Chamberlain & Albert;
Gentlemen : About twenty years ago
1 had my ankle sprained by the fall of my
horse. Since that time, until recently, I
have suffered very much from pain, swell-
ing and wuakness in it. which has render-
ed plowing and farm work by me almost
impossible. A few weeks since I was in-
duced to try Dr. Hart's great relief, and
by the use of it in ten days my ankle was
made sound and well.
