THE

JOURNAL.

NEW INDUCEMENTS TO CLUBS In view of the Strong disposition ot our people to patronize cheap eastern publications, and that too, to the great injury of iheir own county papers and in order to compete with those pampers, and thus extend our circulation by placing onr terms within the reach of every man in the county—we have been induced to put the pricoof the Journal down to the following extremely low figures, in advance

Clubs of 20, to one address, $20 00 15, 17 00 10, 12 50 «, 6, 8 00 Single copies, invariably in advance 1 50

One copy will be furnished gratis, to the person getting up clubs of 20, on receipt of the names and money. "We hope some good energetic friend in each «ounty town and Post Office throughout the county, will oblige us and himself, by raising and forwarding us clubs as early as possible.

JOB FEINTING.

"We are now prepared to do all kinds of Plain and Fancy Job Printing in a style that cannot be surpassed by any office in the West. Now is the time to get Job Work done. Call tip and examine our specimens. They will 6pe&k for themselves. ...

SCHOLARSHIP FOR. SALE. We have a certificate of Scholarship the Mercantile College of Evansville, which wo wish to dispose of on very reasonable terras to some young man desirous of obtaining a thorough knowledge af Book Keeping, &c.

OUR JOURNAL ACCOUNTS. Having disposed of the Journal, I now wish to olose up my business as soon as possible. We wish all those knowing themselves indebted, to call immediately and settle up, which will save us and them both trouble and expense. 1 will be found at the Journal office for a few dayB only. In my absence, Mr. CANTHILL, will wait upon you, as the books will be found with him at all times.

The Journal will be furnished to those having paid for the present year by my successors and arrangements are also made with them for the continuation of all advertisements for the time epeeified in contract. J. A. GILKEY.

"I DIOFST!" Such is the true meaning of the word "Pepsin," or of the two Greek words from which it is derived. This is the significant and appropriate title of the THUE DIGESTIVE FLUID,or OASTHIC JUICE, prepared by Dr. J. S. HOCGHTONof Philadelphia, for the cure of Indigestion and Dyspepsia. It is Nature's own remedy for an unhealthy stomach. No artof man can equal its curative powers. It renders GOOD EATING perfect, ly consistent with HEALTH. See advertisement iu another part of this paper.

COUNSEL.—But few of the reading public are aware how continually an editor is called upon to advise his patrons on every subject, from politics to the breed of cattle. Through the whole range of our duties none htfs perplexed us more than to tell our readers what to take for a cure, when they are sick. Hitherto this has been a severe trial to all our skill, but it will not be hereafter. We have been taking, and have seen the evidence from others that have taken Dr. Avers gherry Pectoral and Cathartic Pills. They need but a slight trial to convince the most sceptical how far they are superior to the other medicines we have had iu use. They have one single property of great importance to the sick and that is they cure.—Boston Herald.

"WOODLAND CREAM"—A Pomade for beautifying the Hair—highly perfumed, superior to any French article imported, and for half the price. For dressing Ladies Hair it has no equal, giving it a bright glossy appearance. It causes Gentlemen's Hair to curl in the most natural manner.— It removes dandruff, always giving the Hair the appearance of being fresh shnmpooned. Price only fifty cents. None genuine unless signed

THI MOFFAT LIFE PILLS AND PHOENIX BITTERS. At this season of the year the human system requires purification. To dwellers in cities that one thing needful is manifested by the palid -cheek, sunken eye and faltering gait. These are the precursors of fever, ague and dyspepsia and these symptoms should attended to instanter by giving moderate doses of the pills, followed by the Bitters. These medicines, having srood the teBt of twenty years' experience, can be relied upon as the best of preventatives as well as restorative. W. B. MAFFAT, 335 Broadway, New

LACOUli'S OIL OF COGNAC converts neutral spirit to a superiior imitation of Imported Brandies, viz Otard, Sazerac, 3!arett Cognac, Poultney, Scigncttc, United ineyard Proprietors, Castillion and London Dock Brandies.— These liquors will have a full fruity flavor and a beautiful sparkling color. Common Rectified

LACOUft:S OIL OF RYE changes Rectolicd Whisky to Monongahela Rye Whiskv, Old Virginia Malt Whisky, Bourbon Whisky, &c.

OIL OF CEDKAT changes common rectified Whisky to old Irish Malt Whisky, and a superior article of Scotch Whisky.

OIL OF PEACH changes common Whisky to Virginia Peach Bramh kc. Oil of Peach and Oil of Cognac will convert common Whisky to Apple Brandy.

OIL OF GIN converts the poorest Whisky to Holland Gin, Scheidani Schnaps, Rose Gin,Swan Gin, Enelish Gin, kc.

LACOUR'S CONCENTRATED ACID will, in five hours after being mixed, change five gallons of good Vinegar and twenty-live gallons of water to thirty gallons of the moat acid Vinegar that can be found iu the market. By the use of Lacour'sConcentrated Acid, vinegarenn be made for one doliarand sixty cents per barrel.

FOR MAKING LIQUORS, Lacour's Oil require no preparation—only pour the oil into tiie whisky And shake well. The liquors thus ninde will have a fine natural aroma., a full, rich, oily taste a beautiful .transparent, color and a fine head. Lacour's oils exert three distinct properties iu converting common whisky to brandy, gin, kc. The first property combines with and subsides in the form of fioculent particles the whole ofthe grain oil. (Aniylic Alehohol.) The whisky is thus deprived of that peculiar irritating burning taste, and becomes a neutral spirit: the second property consists in an oily muciikiginous taste imparted to the liquor, which renders it mellow, and imparts an appearance of great age: the third property is exhibited in the rich vinous nutty odor that, is imparted to the liquor, which renders distinction from the genuine brands impossible.

Those oils arc put up in quart flasks: cach flask contains sufficient oil for making three hundred gallons of liquor. Full and comprehensive directions accompany the bottles. Price, §2 per bottle.

For sale at the corner of St. Charles and Poydran streets. One bottle of these oils, five in number, will be securely packed and shipped, with bill of lading, to any part of the country, upon the receipt of $10 to the address of
