Mrs. Stowe’s New Novel.
l’audering to tbe morbid pliilanthro
py and political insanity of tlie limes,
as well as to her own insatiable avarice,
Mrs. Stowe lias again sent forth a pitia
ble tale of Negro Life in tbe Southern
States, which, from the accounts wo have
seen of it, is as pure a piece of fic
tion as “ Uncle Tom’s Cabin.” Intend
ed for Northern consumpton, during
the present heated canvass, it will pro
bably only excite the sectional spirit
which has leen engendered with so
much bitterness to a still wilder fury.
We are glad, however, to see that the
Boston Post one of the ablest journals
in the country, administers a wholesome
•criticism, and a sound rebuke to its evil
tendencies. From its account, as a lite
rary production, it falls far below “Uncle
Tom,” and does not merit the patronage
of the reading classes of any portion of
the country. We cannot better express
our own detestation of that spirit which
by such means can seek to loosen the
ties that hind the States together, in
crease the disaffection already too great,
and render more certain that ultimate
great disaster which seems to be hasten
ing over us, than by giving the Post's
opinion of Mrs. Stowe’s work.
“ Where she fails, is in the general
view of the w hole matter under discus
sion, involving a consideration of race,
climate, necessity, custom and human
nature. It certainly requires a smart
and gifted woman to so naturally and
interestingly paint the abuses, or per
haps the evils of the slave institutions of
the South. But it would require a much
larger and abler woman to comprehend
the whole question of slavery, in all its
ramifications and difficulties, and havin'/
the power to expose its deformities, in
evitable or otherwise, to keep silent re
garding them, at an exciting moment,
lest she might add fuel to a fire that is
already burning fiercely in the bosoms
of many, both North and South, aggra
vating the condition of the slave, and
threatening a conflagration that will de
prive the reasonable and the conserva
tive of any influcnco upon the actions
and laws of the slaveholder. But Mrs.
S owe is no such woman. She is proba
bly as sincere, and certainly as narrow
minded, as most of lliu one idea people.
And it ‘ pays’ for her to write exciting
negro tales, especially about election
time. According to her view, she is
serving Oval and mammon beautifully.
According to ours, she is doing much
harm with the iguoran' and unrelenting
—as much, perhaps, as if she were as
wicked in her actual life as the basest of
her fictitious personages.”
Photography in Forging.
A curious affair happened oh Saturday,
which, says the Paris correspondent of
the Atlas, may be just as alarming to
you as it proved to us. The science of
photography has, for some time past,
lteen the rage amongst the young men
of fashion in Paris, and has been carried
to a great perfection by many of them,
hut none to a greater extent than by
M. Aguado, whose successful studies
from nature are well known among the
artists of every country. On Saturday
morning this gentleman sent wold to
the experts of the Bank of France, that
he had at length succeeded so fully in
the imitation of one of the thousand
franc notes that ho defied them to detect
it, and to show his perfect conviction of
the impossibility of discovery, he warned
them that the note would be presented
at the bank between the hours of one
and three.
According to this intimation, the
whole of the experts were assembled at
the caisse, and each note brought in was
submitted to their examination before it
was accepted. The hours passed by,
and no false note had appeared ; the
whole of those presented during the
interval specified lay in a row spread out
before the experts, who already crowed
over the idea that M. Aguado had not
dared to hazard the experiment, when
just as the clock struck three, in he
walked, smiling and triumphant, with a
thousand franc note in his hand. “Well,
have you detected my forgery ?” said he
with the greatest coolness. “No,” re
plied the head expert laughing, “for a
good reason—you never sent it.”—
“ Why, there it lies right under your
nose the third to the left, and here is
the original I took it from.” The dis
may of the experts may be conceived,
when even upon comparing the two they
found it impossible to say which was the
genuino note, and which the false.
A committee was held to determine
upon the course to he adopted, as, ac
cording to report, an immense number
of these photographed notes are in cir
culation, and M. Aguado declares him
self able to manufacture any quantity in
a given time, and that none shall be
detected, either by sight or touch. The
consternation created by the announce
ment is not to be described, and the re
port tells us that the bank has already
accepted the offer of a learned English
11l W all If flßl f# E.
doctor resident here to furnish a chem
ical preparation of his own diseoverv
which shall immediately decompose the
photograph by the touch of a camel’s
hair brush dipped in the liquid, and
I passed lightly over the printed lines.
Ite adveuturo has served to make us
laugh, although rather grimly, when it
is considered that already the greater
proportion of the notes in circulation
may not be able to withstand the test of
the learned doctor’s brush.
Cooiyxe without a Fire.— A patent
has been recently granted to Mr. Albro,
of Buryhamplaitq N. J., for a culinary
contrivance for cooking without fire.
J he required caloric is generated by the
employment of lime and water. Be
tween these two substances there is a
strong chemical affinity, and when they
are brought in contact, in the proper
proportions, they unite with such rapidity
and energy as to develop an intense heat.
No decomposition takes place, and there
fore no gas escapes; thus heat is pro
duced without combustion. The inven
tor turns this phenomenon to a high
ly useful purpose in the present improve
ment. During an experiment made in
our office, the other day, with one of
these contrivances, we cooked a slice of
tam, stewed a dish of apples, baked some
other apples, and boiled a quantity of
water, all at once, at a consumption of
perhaps a quarter of a cent’s worth of
lime. The inventor makes different sizes;
the largest does not exceed a lady’s hand
box. Among them is the dinner-pail
pattern so arranged that the mechanic,
when noon time arrives, has only to
pour a half pint or so of water in the
pail, in order to cook a warm dinner.
The lime and edibles are, of course,
arranged at home.— Farm Journal.
/■-fTOiio of our sick compositors has
recovered, and our friends who have job
work, &c., on hand for us to do, may
now rely on having it attended to at
once. He says that—■
He took the ague badly,
And it shook him—shook him sorely,
Shook his boots off* and his toe-nails,
Shook his tcetli out and his hair oil*
Shook his coat all into tatters,
And his shirt all into ribbons;
Sliirtless, coatless, hairless, toothless,
Minus hoots and minus toe-nails;
Still it shook him ’till it
Made him yellow, gaunt and bony.
But he has shaken so much that lie
has got the hang of it. mid his last act
was to shake the chills clean off; and
he is now up and kicking again.—

Ladies’ Fashions in France. —The
French “lubelar” process of inflation
greatly conduces to general convenience,
and likewise prevents the toilettes from
being crushed. These tubelars are pipes
in'reduced into and meandering round
the skirls and flounces of gowns, with a
screw valve attached to the upper end of
a pendant tube within the side pocket
slit. This little tube can he raised to
the mouth, so as to inflate the dress, or
unscrewed so as to allow the air to es
cape. As ladies cannot well stoop to
perform the act of inflation themselves,
they apply to their femmes do chnmbre,
with a word of command equivalent to
“ blow me tight.”
Editorial Blackguardism. —The fol
lowing characteristic paragraph appears
in the editorial columns of the New
York Tribune:
“ Whoever asserts that Gul. Fremont
is a Homan Catholic, or a Slaveholder,
simply lies—that is all there is to he said
on that point.”
.gSr'llic New York Daily News
(dent.,) says a merchant on ’change a
few days since “bet another sto,ooo
against *SOO that Fremont could not be
elected.
A Kentuckian attending the funeral
obsequies oflletiry Clay, at San Francis
co, said Mr. Clay ought never to have
been buried oh land. “They should have
thrown him into the sea,and a continent
would have been built upon his body.’’
Os Course Not.— An old stick says:
“ I have seen women so delicate that
they were afraid to ride for fear of the
horse running away—afraid to walk for
fear that the dew might fall—but I never
saw one that was afraid to he married."

OBITUARY.
Died, in Madison, Georgia, on the 11th inst*.
| vEuzajusth Johnston, wife of Doct. William
i Johnston, aged 64 years.
The deceased has left a devotedly attached
I family and a large number of friends, in different
i parts of the State, to mourn the loss which they
! ha\c all sustained in her death. She was origi
| Rally endowed by her Creator with a high order
of intellectual powers, which had been carefully
developed aud improved by .education. She was
also blessed iu an uncommon degree with amia
bility and sweetness of disposition, aud with
most gentle and winning manners. In addition
to these natural and acquired endowments—
which admirably fitted her for an elevated posi
tion in society—her Heavenly Father had bes
towed on her the infiuitely richer gifts and graces
of a renewed nature. She was, ju the true sense
of the term, a Chidstutn. The brightest orna
ment of her character, was “ the hidden man of
the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even
the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which
is in the sight of God of great price.” She had
been for about thirty-five years a beloved and
useful member of the Presbyterian Church, ex
emplifying by her uniform piety the beauty and
loveliness of the Christiau * walk and couversa
tion.*
For thirty years she sustained to the fumi.y
now bereaved the endearing and responsible re
lations of Wife, and Mother, and Mistress. In
the discharge of her duties in these several rela
tions, the record of her fidelity, her affection, her
gentleness, her kindness, her usefulness, is indel
ibly inscribed on the hearts of Husband, Children
and Servants. And all testify to the eminently
happy and salutary influence which she exerted
upon them. Her death came not unexpectedly, to
herself or to her friends, as she had been gradu
ally declining for several months previous. Yet
was there nothing fearful to her iu its approach.
Her trust was iu the Lord Jesus Christ, and with
this faith she walked through the Valley of the
Shadow of Death, and feared no evil. “Blessed
are the dead who die in the Lord.” F. B.

No Family should be without them.
We speak of M’Lane’s Liver Pills, prepared
by Fleming Bros., Pittsburgh, Pa., which have
become an indispensable Family Medicine. The
frightful symptoms which arise from a diseased
Liver manifest themselves, more or less, in every
family; dyspepsia, sick headache, obstruction of
the menses, ague and fever, pains in the side
with dry, hacking cough, are all the results oj
hepatic derangement—and for these Dr. M’Lane’s
Pills are a sovereign remedy. They have hover
been known to fail, and they should be kept
at all times by families.
Directions. —Take two or three going to bed,
every second or third night. If they do not
purge two or three times by next morning take
one or two more. A slight breakfast should inva.
riably follow their use.
The Liver Pills may also be used where purg
ing is simply necessary. As anti-bilious purga
tive, they are inferior to none. And in doses of
two or three, they give astonishing relief to sick
headache; also iu slight derungemeuts of the
stomach.

We, the undersigned, Druggists of this

year or two past, an article of Family Medicine,
known as Perry Davis’ Vegetable Pain Killer,
and we would assure the public that in every in

satisfaction to the purchaser. We can recom
mend it to the public as an article
OF GREAT MERIT AND VIRTUE.
Indeed, we never knew an article of Medicine
become so deservedly popular iu so short a time

and constantly increasing demand. Signers:

Dear Sirs : I became your agent without feel
ing any interest in the medicine, but I soon be
came very much interested, upon seeing the hap
py cflcct it had upon many persons. The increa
sed sales in this State are truly astonishing. I
might have collected any number of certificates
of its great power in relieving pain, if J had attend

it is recommended.

The Grand Secret of Health.
At least one half of our sick population
of both sexes and all ages, might enjoy robust
health if they could only be brought to believe,
practically, that * cleanliness is next to godliness.’
For this reason every invention of genius and
discovery of science that renders bathing a luxu
ry, merits the thanks and patronage of every re
al philanthropist. The “ Balm of a Thousand
Flower*]' more than any other cosmetic in the
world, effects this object : it impregnates the wa
ter—hard and soft, hot and cold—with a medici
nal property very invigorating to the body, and
gives to it an oily softness, and sweet perfume,
which cause the bather a delicious feeling of per
sonal comfort, purity Rnd health.
Notice the advertisement of Prof.
Wood. No doubt by the number of certificates,
this is the most reliable article of the kind ever
offered to the public. There is nothing so beau
tiful as luxuria.it, glossy hair, and who would
suffer theirs for a few dimes to become grey or
fall oil*. Old maids and bachelors, read and re
joice that your lots have been cast in a land where
science and art have combined to keep j'ou from
being bald or grey headed. Married people, read
and remember—you soon may be enjoying sin
gle blessedness again, and need the assistance of
Prof. Wood. Everybody, turn and read.—Wa

was not free from a cough during that summer.
In December following, my cough increased to

I lost about thirty-five pounds of flesh, and phy.

relief. I heard of the beneficial effects of VVIS

way of a friend, who had received the greatest
benefit by the use of the article, and was inclin

up one bottle before I was completely cured, and
from that day to this, have not been troubled with
a cough. I can cheerfully recommend it to all,
as being a remedy of great value.

ALL HAIL!!!
SOMETHING FOR THE MILLION!!
WE call the attention of all, old and young,
to this wonderful preparation, which turns
back to its original color grey hair—covers the
head of the bald with a luxuriant growth—re
moves the daudrntf, itching, and all cutaneous
eruptions—causes a continual flow of the natural
fluids; and hence, if used as a regular dressing
for the hair, will preserve its color, and keep it
from falling to extreme old age, in all its beauty.
We call, then, upon the bald, the gray, or dis
eased in scalp, to use it: and surely, the young
will not, as they value the flowing locks, or the
witching curls, ever be without it, Its praise is
upon the tongue of thousands,
Waterford, Mass., July 25, 1855.
Prof. O. J. Wood— With confidence do 1 re
commend your Ilair Restorative, as being the
most efficacious article I over saw. I have used
the Walphene aud other preparations of the day,
all without effect. Since using your llair Resto
rative, my hair and whiskers, which \\\ re almost
white, have gradually grown dark; and I now
feel confident, that a few more applications will
restore them to their natural color. It also has
relieved me of all dandruff’ and unpleasant itch
ing, so common among persons who perspire free
ly j. J. Kilby.
North Fast Pennsylvania, March ‘J, 1855.
Sir—ln consequence of having hair, for seve
ral years past, not only gray, but perfectly white,
I liave cut it shfi.’t, and worn caps to hide it from
view; but some t hree months since I was induced
to use your Hair Restorative, and I must in jus
tice say, that its effects were almost miraculous;
for it has changed it gradually to almost its tin
nier splendor as to color, ami left it so soft and
glossy as to be more beautiful than it ever was,
when under the influence of the finest oil. 1 eui
nestlv, therefore, recommend it to every lady as
decidedly the best preparation for toilet use, of
anything in the world. BETSY SMITH.
Prof. Wood— Having experienced the magic
effect of your Ilair Restorative, l drop you this
upon the subject. About twoyears ago, my hair
commenced filling off and turning gray; 1 was
fast becoming bald. I met a friend who had used
your Restorative, and spoke so highly of its vir
tues, 1 was induced to try it, although 1 had but
little faith, as 1 hud before tried so many other
remedies. I commenced using your Restorative
in January last. A tew applications fastened my
hair firmly. It began to till up, grow out, aud
turned hack to its former color, (black.) At this
time it is fully restored to its original color, health
aud appearance, aud I cheerfully recommend its
use to all. * J. D. HOES.

Milford , Worcester eo. Mass., Nov. 13,1854.
Prof! O. J. Wood— Dear Sir: 1 take pleasure
in bearing voluntary testimony to the magic ef
fects of your wonderful Hair* Restorative. As
far back as 1836, my hair commenced falling off,
until the top of my scalp became bald and smooth
as glass, anil it has continued to fall for a great
many years, notwithstanding 1 have used many
celebrated preparations for its restoration. See
ing your advertisement, J was induced to give
your article atrial, and, to my litter astonish
ment, I found, after a lew applications, that my
hair became firmly set, and assumed a glossy
aud beautiful appearance; aud by the time I had
used a quart buttle, my bald head was covered
over with a young ami vigorous growth of hair,
which is now from one to two inches in length,
and growing fast.
Yours, truly, HENRY GOODRICH.
New York, Oct. 2, 1854
Prof. O. J. Wood— Deaf Sir: After reading
the advertisement in one of the New York jour
nals, of your celebrated Hair Restorative, 1 pro
cured a uuli-pint bottle, and was so much pleased
with it, that I continued its use for two months,
and am satisfied it is decidedly the best prepara
tion before the public. It at* once removed all
dandruff and unpleasant itching from the scalp,
and has restored my hair naturally, and, I have
no doubt, permanently so.
You have permission to refer to me, all who
entertain any doubt of its performing all that is
claimed for it.
MISS PEEKS, 26 1-2 Greenwich Averuc.
I have used Professor O. J. Wood’s Hair Res

Numerous crastve preparations have been otter

None of them propose to remove Paint «»r \ ar
