Twenty Weeklies for S2O, Postage Paid. »’ FRESIDENTtAL ELECTION. The country lias passed through n fierce Presidential context, and the result hs« liecti left in a dangerous and unsatisfactory xhape,'on account of the unprecedented closeness of the election, the angrv disputes as to tiie vote, of certain States, and the failure of the Constitution to provide any tribunal to solve doubts or decide contested jxrints. GOV. HAVES ELECTED. From the liext light before it. THE TinurN'E believes that Hayes has received 185 Electoral votes against IM for Tilden, and is therefore entitled to lie inaugurated President on the 4th of March, 1877. The highest good of the 8011th, ns wellat oft he North, would ItelterL promoted bv hisoccupaucv of the Executive < hair. lIANGEU OF ANOTHEB WAIL But there are grave apprehensions thnt a ruffianly, ravenous crowd of office-seekers mayresort to law ieM and violent means to induct the defeated candidate into the office of t hies Magistrate. All peace-loving am!law-abiding men. irrespective of party, must stand together in this crisis, and crush out the Incendiary demagogues who are threatening to light the torch of internecine war, which would bring ruin and destruction upon the country. The coming year promises to be the most eventful nnd exciting of any since the War. The Tkibcxe will do everything in its power to have the new President peacefully and lawfully Inaugurated, anti to restore harmony and confidence in the future.

The success of the Gl.eBE-DitMOCHst, since the consolidation of which it is. in fact and in name, the product, has been such as to excite universal comment. Its circulation has steadily increased since its first issue, and its general business prosperity has kept pace w ith its circulation. Thus encouraged, its proprietors are determined that in the future no effort will be spared to keep it in the front rank of Western journalism. Politically, the Globe-Democrat is a supporter of the measures of the Republican party, believing that organization to bo best adapted by its principles and politics to perpetuate our form of government, and to secure its administration in a manner best calculated to promote the good of the country. The popular demand is not only for an organ of opinion, but for a history of the times—something that will eome fully up to the poet's idea of A map of busy life. Its fluctuation's and its vast concerns. In Uiis respect we claim for the GI.OBEDkmocrat a reputation second to that of no journal in the >5 est, yielding to i o rival in our efforts to obtain the news, and to present the same in an attractive shape. slur aim is to publish a newspaper adapted to the wants. tastes and interests of the people of the Mississippi Valley. To this end we pay especial attention to events happening in Missouri and the adjoining States—to watch tileir progress, and to assist, so far as we can, in their development. The Weekly Globe-Democrat Now an Enlarged Octavo of* FIFTY-SIX COMJNIIWS, is emphatically a paper for the People—and essentially a Family newspaper. Containing as it docs a complete aumtnary <*f the latest and of all tlie important news from all parts of the world; a number of Editorials on current topics: a carefully selected and interesting Miscellany; valuable matter for the farmer, nonscWife, uterchaul and mechanic; [the latest and most reliable Live Stock and Crop Reports: a Financial and Commercial Column-long known as complete. and more reliable than that of anv other paper published in the West: which, with the eayfletal attention always given to the progress and the rapid development of the reeournes of tbs Great West, can not but make the W eekly Globjs-Demockat a most welcome visitor toavurv fireside.

MARK THESE FACTS. THE TESTIMONY OF THE WHOLE WORLD. HOLLOWAY’S PILLS. “I bad no appetite; Holloway ’s Pills gave me a hearty one.’’ "Your Fills are marvellous.” "I send for another box. and keep them in the house.” “Dr. Holloway has cured my headache that was chronic.” "1, gave one of your Fills to my babe for ..chelrra morbus, The dear little thing get well in a day.” "My nausea of a morning is now cured.” "YotirboXof Holloway’s Ointment cured me of noises in the head.. I'rubbed some of your Ointment behind the ears, and the noise has left.” "Send mo two boxes; I want one for a poor family.” "1 enclose a dollar; your price is 25 cents, but the medicine to me is worths dollar.” “Semi me five boxes of your Pills.” “Let me have three boxes of your Pills by return mail, for Chills and Fever’.” I have over 200 such testimonials as these, but want of space compels me to conclude. For Cutaneous Disorders, And all eruptions of the skin, this Ointment is most invaluable. It does not heal externally alone, but penetrates with the most searching effects to the very root of the evil. HOLLOWAY’S FILLS Invariably cure the following diseases: Disorder of the Kidneys. In all'diseases affecting these organs, whether they secrete too much er too little water; or whether they be afflicted with stone or g -avel, or with aches and pains settled in the loins over the legions of the kidneys, these Pills should be taken according to the printed directions, and the Ointment should be well rubbed into the small of the back at bed time. This treatment will give almost immediate relief when all other means have failed. For Stomachs Out of Order. No medicine will so effectually improve the tone of the stomach as these Fills'; they remove all acidity occasioned either bv intern iterance or improper diet. They reach the liver and reduce it to a hcaithy action; they are wonderfully efficacious incases of spasm—in fact-they never fail in curing all disorders of the liver and stomach. HOLLOWAY’STn.LS are the best known in the world for the following diseases: Ague, Asthma. BiliousComplatots, Blotches on the Skin, Bowels, Consumption, Debility, Dropsy, Dysentery, Ervslpclas, Female Irregularities, Fevers of'all kinds, Fits, Gout. Headache, Indigestiou, lufiammntion. Jaundice. Liver Complaints. Liimbagit. Piles, Rheumatism, Retention of Crlne. scrofula or King’s Evil, sore Throats, stone and Gravel. Tie-Douloureux, Tuiuors, I’leers. Worms of all kinds. Weakness fivm any cause, etc. IMPORTANT CAUTION None are genuine unless the signature of J Haykock. as agent for the l'nitea Status, surrounds each box of Pilis, and Ointment. A handsome reward will lie given to any one rendering sneli information as may lend to the detection of any party or pnnies counterfeiting the medicifies or vending the same, knowing them to be spurious. %*Sold at the manufactory of Professor Holloway & Co.. New York, and by all respectable drnegists and dealers in medicine throughout‘the civilized world, in boxes at 25 cents, tiicents and sl. each. There is considerable saving by taking the larger sizes. N. B.—Directions for the guidance of patients in every disorder are affixed to each box. Office, 112' Liberty Street, New York, rt-11.

In compiling this work we have discovered the fact that there are MANY DEFECTIVE TITLES which should be adjusted without delay, while parties interested are at ill living. The expense will be light if attended to soon, and may sxve costly litigation at some future time. These defective Titles are occasioned by a variety of causes—deeds not recorded, errors in making and recording. etc. All persons owning land in the county should call on, or write to, us at once and have the title to their land examined.
