From Shiloh. We are informed by a correspondent, writing from Shiloh, that a large alligator was recently killed in the mill pond of Mr. A. M. Woods. The beast had been for some time a terror to those who frequented the pond and the letter, (which we intended to publish, but regret to say that it was misplaced, ) gave a humorous account of a regatta between friend Woods and the "gator," ia which the former congratulated himself in barely get? ting to land in time to save his bones, after a hard paddle. We hope to hear from our Shiloh correspondent soon again, and prom? ise to be more careful of his letters. He com? plains of dry weather aral short crops. Honored and Blest. When a board of eminent physicians and chemists announced the discovery that by combining some well known valuable remedies the most wonderful medicine was produced, which would cure such a wide range of diseases that most all other remedies could be dis? pensed with, many were ?keptical ; but proof of its merits by actual trial bas dispelled all doubt, and to-day the discoverers ofthat great medicine, Hop Bitters, are honored and blessed by ^Is the patent name of an invaluable &\j\)*J remedy for removing from the human system pin and stomach worms. It was the prescription of a celebrated physician, and saved the life of tbe child it was dispensed for. It has since been thc means of saving the lives ??f thousands of children by its timely use. It is put up in the form of powders, ready for use, and children take it readily, as it is a pleasant medicine, ?old by dealers in medicine at 25 cents.
