A Curious Hoax. The London
Court Journal says: “A funny story
.comes from America of a lady who, for
fur., advertised for a husband. She
gave a general description of her charms,
but rather more of her means. She
spoke of a snug little fortune. Enough!
She received an euormous number of
. replies, and laid her plans accordingly,
A**i«ted by five other ladies, she wrote
replies to all the euger swains. She
proposed to each a meeting iu a Broad¬
way restaurant. Euch was to be dress¬
ed in a rather marked mannea, to as¬
sume a partieular attitude, to be eating
a certain rather eccentiic and ignoble
dish. Meanwhile the lady arranged
with her friends to dress all alike, in the
costume ind cated to the suitors in the
letters sent by them, and to present
themselves, one by one at the appointed
rendezvous. The plot was carried out,
and succeeded. Great was the grtlier
ing of suitars iu costume, attitude and
gustatory occupation strictly according
to orders. Very attentively did each
apply himself, uncouscious of proximity
to Ashers whoso minds were similarly
occupied, to the particular action by
which he was to be recognized, and
great of course, was the amusement of
the ladies who sat watching them. At
last, when five and finally the sixth
|ady in the notified costume arrived, it
flashed upon the astonished suitors that
they had been sold, and so, without u
word, they made for the door. It was
with difficulty and slowly th»*t they got
jthgir money taken und departed, laughter, leaving
the six ladies iu fits of merry
and the proprietor and waiters iu as
grout a state of wonderment at their
departure as they hud been thrown into
by their arrival.
A special telegram to the Charleston
Hews, dated Columbia, November 23d,
says? “ A row occurred in Abbeville,
ou Saturday, at a gathering of negroes,
who recommended were addressed by Judge liege.
He ihut the laborers
snout a mac trot less than half tli« crop.
Cothran, Democrat, asked him what
the negroes would take in money. Huge
replied that negro meant ‘dirty dog,’
And there were none there. Cothran
then desired to know what the colored
would take. The negroes became tur¬
bulent at this, and Cothran left, but the
pegroes pursued and caught him outside
of the town, and dragged him out of his
buggy and curried him lo prison, guard¬
ed by five negroes, with Winchester
rifles, until night. Cothran was then
released on $2, 00 ball, and no charge
preferred. him, The negroes wanted to kill
And threatened saying that he had drawn » pistol

DR J- BRADFIELD’S
Female Regulator!
WOMAN’S BEST FRIEND!
rpiIIS VALUABLE MEDICINE is prepared
for wombs exclusively, and to bo used by
women only. It is adapted especially to lliosn
cases where the womb is disordered, and will
cure any irregularity in ihe “ metises,” except
in swell cases as requiro a syrgical operation.
As these last are very rare, the FEMALE
REGULATOR is of almost universal npplioa.
tion. In a sudden check ef the ‘-monthly
courses” from cold, trouble of mind or like
cause, it acts like a charm, by restoring tiik
discharge in kvkbt instance, thus relieving
the fewer, headache.' pain in the small of the
back and “ lower stomach,” flushes of heat
about the face, chilly sensations, burning of
the eyelids, and general restleness. 'faken in
time, all these symptoms pass away immedi¬
ately, wit bout injury to the constitution. --
Frequently, however, if the proper rewedyis
not applied in time, the disease becomes chro¬
nic, ami the- foundation laid for numberless
evils to the constitution of the woman. The
next *• turn ’ comes around aiul there is no
‘-show.” or perhaps the •* whites” will ap.
pear. There will be some uneasiness about
the womb, but very little or nm-.o of (he natu
ral fluid escaping. The complexion becomes
sallow, bowels swollen, a sort of greenish caste
about the face, constant dull, aching pain in
the head, weight in the lower stomach and
back, with or without whites, palpitation ot
the heart, pallor, exhaustion, indigestion,
weariness, langor, aching across the loins, loss
of appetite, pain in left breast, tightness
across the chest, cough and giddiness. If still
allowed to go on, “ green sickness” will be
fully developed ; the headache becomes se¬
vere, with loss of memory, diminished sensi.
bility, sick stomach, dyspepsia, no relish
for food, loss of flesh, increased fluttering of
the he.ti-t, swelling of the feet, legs and
body, and occasional spitting of blood The
slightest effort causes hurried breathing,
almost to suffocation. The skin is tlaboy and
has a “doughy feel.” This is a sad picture,
but it is the condition of thousands of women
between the ages of fifteen and forty-five, who
are brought to the grave by ignorance or ne¬
glect to lake the proper remedy.
To all who are afflicted with any of I lie
symptoms above mentioned, in connection with
an irregularity of the “monthly sickness,” we
earnestly say, TAKE Dll. J. BRADFIELD’S
FEMALE REGULATOR. A few ounces ta¬
ken, you will at once experience its benefit,
and with a little patience you will be fully re¬
stored to health.
This remedy has beeu extensively used for
upward of twenty years by many ef the most
experienced and successful physicians in
Georgia. No family should be without two or
three bottles.
W e re peat, that DR. J. BRADFIELD’S
FEMALE REGULATOR is prepared for wo¬
men, and lo bj used by women only.
