These people, ior the most part, suc ceeded in dodging Gereral Grant's Colo nel Kelt's and Colonel Hood's troops, ho are scouring the country for them. They devote their energies to ambush ing commissary wagons and picking up soldier who leave their commands. Every day some wagon train is fired upon or some soldier disappears. ROM Or TUB OUTBAOES.

The first indication of croup Is hoarse ness, and in a child subject to that dis ease it may be taken as a sure sign of the approach of an attack. Following this hoarseness is a peculiar rough cough. If Chamberlain' Congh Rem edy is given as soon as the child becomes hoarse, or even after the croupy cough appears) It will prevent the attack. It is used in many thousands of borne in this broad land, and never disappoints the anxious mother. We have yet to learn of a single instance in which it has not proved effectual. No other preparation can show such a record twenty-five years constant use without a failure. For sale by Dr. Edwin Ross. COUNTY TREASURER'S NOTICE. Cousty TasAsuaaa's Oppick, St. Hklens, Oh..
