THE FUTUKE OK THE SOUTH-WEST. -.
Tho New Orleans Picayune makes th?
following remarks:
There are some evils which, how?
ever painful while they last, are self
limiting; anil this is tho caso with the
existing situation of tho. South." So
fair a domain iis this Lower Missis?
sippi Valley cannot sutler ti perma?
nent blight. Death political, or any
other death, cnn . have no lusting
power over its beauty. Time cannot
write un ineffaceable wriukle upon its
brow. It may lie long in a trance,
induced by wicked enchantment, like
the princess in the fable, and bones
and desolation may mark the rash
attempts of blundering statesmanship
to penetrate its mystery. But the
predestined footsteps and touch will
come at lust, und it will awake to
bridal effulgence and joy. It is in
destiny that the whole Mississippi
Valley will be the sont of political
and material greatness such as the
world hus rarely, it ever, seen; and
New Orleans, by right of nature and
priinogenturc, must be its chief em?
porium.

A NEW AND GRANU EPOCH IN MEDICINE. -
Dr. M.iggiel is the founder of a new modi
eal system! The quantitarians, whose vas
internal ibises enfeeble the stomach am
paralyze tho bowels, must give precedent:
to thc man who restores health and appe
tito, wi.ii from one to two of his cxtraordi
nary Pills, and cures tho most, vinden
sores with a box or so ot' his wonderful an
all-healing Salve. These two groat spec:
fies of the Doctor are fast superseding a
the stereotyped nostrums of tho day. E>
traordinary cures by Magg iel's Pills an
Salve have opened the eyes of the publie t
the inefficiency of the >o called) rcmodii
of ot lier.-., and upon which people haves
long blindly depended. Maggiel's Pills ai
not of the ( lass thal aro swallowed by th
dozen, and of which every box full take
creates an absolute necessity for anothe
Ono or two of Maggiel's Pills suffices 1
place the bowels in perfect order, tone tl:
stomach, create an appetite and render til
spirits light and buoyant. Thorn is i:
griping and no reaction in thc form of coi
stipation. If the liver is affected, its fun
lions aro restored; and if tho nervous sy
tem is feeble, it is invigorated. This la
quality makes the medicines very desirab
for the wants of delicate females. Ulceroi
and eruptive diseases arc literally extii
guished by the disinfectant power of Maj
gill's Salvo. In fact, it is here announci
that MaggieVs Bilious, Dyspeptic and Dia
rhata Pill's cure w here all others fail. Whi
for burns, scalds, chilblains, cuts and :
abrasions of the skin MaggieVs Salve is i

A S other parties aro advertising themselves as having purchased the proper! y and
i v business of the Emory Agricultural Works, increased their facilities, and ar? con
i n n i ng the bus i nt ss, thc effect of which, if not the i nt en I it iii, is to diver! tho patronage
ind business from thc well known and long established EMERY'S ALBANY AGRICUL?
TURAL Wr01UvS of this city, tho proprietors of these Works, in self-defence, and to
inform their patrons tba! thoyatill live, hog a careful perusal of thc following card:
Thc above celebrated Works nero originated and erected during thc years 1^17, 'IS
md '!'.>, by the present senior proprietor, who has (with short interruptions) been con?
stantly connected with them as tue principal manager, and since lS0i>, in connection
ivit h his junior brothers, under tho style of Emery Brothers.
During the,summer of 1 MU, lin attended the World's Fair a! Loudon, with some of
his leading invention.-, and remained abroad nearly two years, engaged in sutjBcssfuIlv
establishing their manufacture.
In ilie meantime, owing to embarrassments and losses, the firm of Emerv brothers,
.(insisting of Wm. B. aud G. W. Emery, made au assignment, and those eutiro works
xml business were sold, ami purchased by other parties, and the said firm ceased to
?.xist from November I, 1802, leaving tho brothers, Win. B. and (!. W., hopelessly bank?
rupt.
On his return from England, in tho early part of 18G4, tho present senior proprietor
negotiated for and rc-purchaswl th?'entire interest, real and personal, in and to those
works aud business, including its entire accumulation of patterns, working machinery
and tts business, and continued thc same, with tho aid of Wm. B. and (?. W.. to No?
vember 1,180-1, when he assumed its entire management on his own account Wm. B.
and G. W., for a very valuable cash consideration, preferring to rclincpiish all antici?
pated interests ami retire therefrom, aud with the intention with these funds of com?
promising with their creditors.
H.: has .-ince associated with ld ut his eldest son, HORACE HERBERT EMERY, under
ile: style and name at thc head of this notice, and continues the business, in ail its
brandies, ac thc old stand than which no moro complete establishment of its kind
exists in the country.
They have largely increased their facilities, made many new and valuable additions
and improvements to their already large assortment of machines, which their expe?
rience ami observa:ion, at home ant abroad, have suggested as desirable.
The senior member ol' tho ?inn is tin- pioneer of this business here, anti he has been
the designer, protector and patentee of all tho leading and successful machines which
have given tho wide celebrity " ti those works; among which aro the EMERY HORSE
POWERS, COTTON GIN'S ami CONDENSERS, Threshing Machines, Sawing Mills.
Corn Shellers, Churning Machine*, Cotton Openers, .Vc., all nf which they now oiler
rle- public on tho inns; liberal terms, and a continuance of their j at rouage- is solicited.
In the articles of Cotton G hu and Condensers, they are tho only parlies manufactur?
ing them with the improvements which have given these < ?ins : I . precedence and their
world-wide reputation, notwithstanding other parties ure now presenting that they
have purchased tho Emory Agricultural Works and aro making these celebrated ma?
chines as a glauco at th? facts and (heir machines will satisfy the most common
observer.
The property which was purchased by said other parties, and called the Emery Agri?
cultural Works, consisted of a recent collection of machines, toola, patterns, fcc., bv
Mr. Farr, with the services of Wm. B. and O. W. Emery, and located in thc village of
Bath, in an adjoining County, and in value about $5,000 to $7,000; the two Etnervs tail?
ing employment with thc new organization.
Wc again solicit the attention ?sf tho agricultural public and trade, and assure them
that nothing will be spared to maintain th?: well-earned reputation of our wares, which
we offer on the mos! liberal terms to farmers, planters and dealers. Circulars ami
