CHRONICLE & SENTINEL.
POETRY AND MISCELLANY
’Tis now the Promised Hour.— a serenade.
The fountains serenade the flowers
Upon their silver lute —
And, nestled in their leafy bowers,
The forest birds arc mute :
The bright and glittering hosts above
Unbar their golden gates,
While Nature holds her courts of love,
And for her client waits.
Then, lady, wake —in beauty rise!
’Tis now the promised hour,
When torches kindle in the skies
To light thee to thy bower.
The day we dedicate to care—
To love the witching night;
For all that’s beautiful and fair
In hours like these unite.
E’en thus the sweets to flowerets given,
The moonlight on the tree,
And all the bliss of earth and heaven,
Are mingled, love, in thee;
Then, lady, wake—in beauty rise !
’Tig now the promised hour,
When torches kindle in the skies
To light thee to thy bower.
OMNIPOTENCE.
There is something delightful to the pious mind in
the idea that God is present in all the diversified
scenes of human life, and that no lot is too miserable
to engage his pateruai care.
“ E’en now, while voiceless Midnight walks the land,
And spreads the wings of Darkness with her wand,
What scenes are witnessed by Thy watchful eye !
What millions waft, to Thee the prayer and sigh !
Some gaily vanish to an unfear’d grave,
Fleet as the sun-flash o’er a summer wave;
Some wear out life in smiles, and some in tears,
Some dare with hope, while others droop with fears ;
The vagrant’s roaming in his tatter’d vest;
The babe is sleeping on its mother’s breast;
The captive’s inutt’ring o’er his rust-worn chain;
The widow’s weeping for her lord again ;
While many a mourner shuts his languid eye,
To dream of heaven, and view it ere he die.
And yet no sigh can swell, no tear-drop fall,
But Thou wilt see and guide, and solace all!”
THOUGHTS OF HEAVEN.
High thoughts!
They come and go,
Like the soft breathings of a listening maiden,
While round me flow [laden :
The winda, from woods and fields with gladness
When the corn’s rustle on the ear doth come—
When the eve’s beetle sounds its drowsy hum —
When the stars, dew-drops of the sn mmer sky,
Watch overall with soft and loving eye —
While the heavens quiver
By the lone river,
And the quiet heart
From depths doth call,
And gamers all
Earth grows a shadow
Forgotten whole,
And heaven lives
In the blessed soul!
High thoughts!
They are with me,
When deep within the bosom of the forest,
Abroad into the s£y thou, throstle, poorest.
When the young sunbeams glance among the trees —
When on the ear comes the soft song of bees—-
When every branch has its own favorite bin!,
And songs of summer from each thicket heard !
Where the owl flitteth,
Where the roe sitteth,
And holiness
Seems sleeping there,
While nature’s prayer
Ones up to heaven,
In purity,
Till .Ilia glory
And joy tome!
High thought.!
They are my own,
When I am resting on a mountain bosom,
And see below me strewn [som.
The huts and homes where humble virtues blos-
When I can trace each streamlet through the mea-
When I can follow every fitful shadow— [dow —
When I ran watch the winds among the corn,
And see the waves along the forest borne,
Where blue-bell and heather
Are blooming together,
Ami far doth come
The Sabbath bell,
O’er wood and fell :
1 hear the beating
Os nature’s heart :
Heaven is before me—
God! thou art I
In moments when the soul is dim and darkened;
They come to bless
After the vanities to which we hearkened;
When weariness hath come upon Iho spirit—
(The hours of darkness which we inherit) —
Bursts there not through a glint of warm sunshine,
A winged thought which bids us not repine I
Io joy and gladness,
In mirth and sadnew,
Uome signs and tokens;
Life’s angel brings
Upon its wings
Those bright communing*
The soul doth keep;
Those thoughts of heaven,
So pure and deep !

THE DEAREST IMAGE.
I’ve wandered through the golden lands
Where Art ami Beauty Handed shine—
Where features limn’d by painters’ hands
Beam from the can.ass made divine,
And many a god in marble sfar.ds.
With soul in every breathing line ;
And forms the world has treasured long,
Within me stirred the streams of song !
Upon the fervent spirit came
Th** voiceless rapture they inspired,
As with mv feelings nil on flame,
I worshipped what the world admired,
While flashes from those orbs of fame
The soul with mutual ardor fired.
Till Beauty’s smile and Glory’s star
Seemed to its grasp no more afar!
Yet, brighter than those radiant dreams,
Link'd with a fame that never dies—
Where more than earthly beauty beams
In sybils’ lips and angels' eyes.
One image, like the moonlight, seems
Between them and mv heart lo rise,
And from its dearer, holier ray,
The stars of genius fade away.
I turn from Titian’s golden hair,
And Raphael's eyes of spirit power,
From hall, whom- hushed .nd haunted air
Kee;« guard o’er Beauty’s tranced hour,
To gave upon that picture fair,
So long enshrined in Memory’s bower;
And, though the mind may worship art,
That dearer image till, the heart !
Kind Words do not Cost Much.—They
never blister the tongue or lips. And we
never heard of any mental trouble arising from
thi. quarter. Though they do not cost much,
yet they accomplish much.
1. Thoy help one's own good nature and
good will. Soft words soften our own soul.
Angry words are fuel to the flame of wrath,
and make it blaze the more fiercely.
2. Kind words make other people good na
tured. Cold words ireeze people, and hot
w ords scorch them, and sarcastic words irritate
them, and bitter words make them bitter, and
wrathful words make them wrathful.
There is such a rush of all other kinds of
word, tn our days that it seems desirable t > give
kind w ord, a chance among them. There are
vain words, and idle words, and hasty words,
and spiteful words, and silly words, aud empty
word.. and profane words, aud boisterous
words, and warlike words.
Kind words produce their own image on
men', souls. And a beautiful image it is.
They soothe and quiet and comfort the hearer.
They shame him out of his sour, morose, un
kind'feelings. M'e have not yet begun to use
kind words in such abundance as thev ought to
be used Pascal

An Important Discovery's
The last number of Howitt’s Journal con
tains an account of the new and important dis
covery of a disinfecting fluid, together with the
reports of commissioners who were appointed
by the English Government to test it. These
reports are published by order of the House of
Commons. It was discovered by a French
chemist, and its wonderful effects are certified
to by a commissioner appointed by the French
Government, by certificates of surgeons and
physicians of the different hospitals in Paris,
and by the Minister of War. We have room
only for the following extracts in relation to its
effects, from the N. Y. Evening Post:
A fluid which possesses the property of de
stroying noxious gasses has been discovered by
a French chemist, and placed by him, through
the instrumentality of an energetic and patriot
ic Englishman, at the disposal of the English
Government. This “ disinfecting fluid, ” as it
has been named, is inexpensive, simple of ap
plication, and without any odor of its own. It
destroyesthe putrid smell of all substances, ani
mal or vegetable, in any stage of decomposi
tion. Tiie •‘dead-rooms” ofhospitals, all dissec
ting rooms, the subjects of coroners’inquests,
or of any post mortem examination, may. by its
presence be rendered perfectly inoffensive.
Portions of human remains, portions of animal
remains, offish, of vegetable matter so putrid
as scarcely to retain their form sufficiently to be
recognised, have l>y it been restored to their
natural odor. Night soil, arrived at that most
poisonous pitch of stench which it emits when
accumulated for years in cesspools, is by it
nearly deprived of all smell; that which it re
tains being so trifling as only to be perceptible
by very close observation. Cesspools, into
which a certain portion of this fluid has been
poured, have been emptied in the middle of
populous neighborhoods, in open day, and the
contents carted away, and neither the men em
ployed, the people of the neighborhood in which
it was situated, nor those of the neighborhood
through which it passed, have had any cause to
complain, or indeed (except those whose atten
tion was drawn to the matter) have been con
scious of die proceedings. The night-men,
whose occupation is usually so disgusting and
dangerous as to be most painful to contemplate,
have expressed their astonishment at this won
derful relief. Thus disinfected, this material
becomes a valuable manure. It is said to pre
vent the potato disease, but we require further
time and experience before that can be ascer
tained. There is no doubt from several obser
vations, however, about its being highly fertili
zing to vegetation in general, much more so
than the night-soil unmixed with this fluid , be
cause the chemical action is to fix all that is nu
tritive, and to destroy all that is at once hurtful
to life and offensive to the sense of smell.
In sickness, also, the relief afforded will be
extraordinary. A sick room may be in the
course of two or three minutes, perfectly pi ri
fled by the use of a small quantity of this fluid,
and all that was disagreeable to the senses be
fore replaced by a sense of singular freshness.
The crowded wards of hospitals have been not
only purified, but the creation of any offensive
smell at all has been prevented by it. In think
ing of a number of sufferers whose proximity in
their state of sickness and prostration necessa
rily renders each a cause of offence and addi
tional suffering to all, the blessing of this new
power to prevent this portion of their calamity is
very striking.
But there is a more important consequence
involved. The generator of all the classes of
infectious disease, the poison which, arising
from the decomposition of animal and vegetable
matter, becomes diffused in the atmosphere, and,
being inhaled into the lungs, causes that dread
ful scourge, fever, is neutralized, is actually
destroyed by the chemical action of this fluid.—
The danger to which the nurses and medical at
tendants are perpetually exposed, and which,
in the present bad form of fever prevailing to so
great an extent, has been particularly fatal, will
now be averted. Ami it appears from the ex
perience already acquired, that a most benefi
cial effect is produced on the patients them
selves by this purification of the air around them.
We should naturally have expected this, and it
proved so. A fever patient becomes in him
self a source of fever. All the exhalations given
off from him are dangerous to life; and while
he inhales them he is continually taking fresh
doses of the poison that has prostrated him. By
annihilating the poison a wonderful assistance
is given to the phyisician in curing him. Hith
erto this effect lias been produced as far as pos
sible by ventilation in all well regulated sick
rooms and hospitals, but the new fluid does it
much more conipletrly. Ventilation only di
lutes, this gets rid of the poison, in the most
crowded aud ill-ventilated wards, filled with
cases of dysentery and fever, in the dreadful
form now prevailing in Ireland, it has been
found sufficient to wave in the air and to hang
round the beds pieces of linen saturated in the
fluid, and the state of the atmosphere has been
changed in a few minutes from one so noxious
as to be highly dangerousto all those whose duty
called them into the dr ad fill service of breath
ing it. into one of perfect safety and purity :
while the suffering patients declared themselves
An Ancient Bible.
There is now in the hands of a gentleman of
this city, a very rare and valuable copy of the
Bible, a brief notice of which, we are sure, will
be acceptable to many of our readers, as it will
enable the curious in such matters to gratify
themselves w ith a sight of the most ancient and
unique work of the kind perhaps extant in this
country. The following description of the
book has been kindly furnished us for publica
tion :
‘•lt is a German Quart.• Bible, published at Nu
re n burg, in 1702, containing the Old and New Testa
ment Scriptures—the apocrypha included —as trans
lated by Martin I uther ! In this Bible is a Biogra
phy of the great llctormer, containing all the princi
pal events of his life and that of his wife from 1483 to
1546, embracing twenty large quarto pages, the whole
arranged in the form of an annual diary, and embra
cing ivery inportant incident from their birth to their
death. This is compiled by Mr. I’. SUaman Biassens
Seel from original manuscripts in the hands of Catha
rine Von Boren, the beloved wife of M. Luther. On
one leaf of this ancient book is an engraving repre
senting the miniature likeness of five of tlie Luther
family, which is remarkably fresh and cirar in its ap
pearance No. 1 isa portrait oft he father, Johann, in
the costume of that period, with his name and death
recorded below. The lust event took place in 1530.
The date of birth not given. N .2 is a |likeness of

m 1531. No. 3is that of Martin Luther, born 1483
and died 1546 and died 1546. V>. 4, the put rail ol

and dn d 1552. N 5. in the centre of the engraving,
is the daughter of M Luther and Catharine his w ife
and her only child, born 1529 and died 1542.
“ From the life of Luther by Seel, in this Bible, it
appears from the translation of the first paragraph,
that Luther was l»orn I Oth Nov. 1483, in the village
of .Warn near Schinalkaldin, at 11 o’clock, p. in .
and was baptised the next day in St. Peter’s Church
The Bible contains an extensive preface, by Luther,
to the writings ol the Prophets—also a sort of para

If. as is supposed, this Bible is the only copy
of the kind extant is this country, a translation
from it of the Life of the Reformer would be an
acceptable addition to the theological literature
of the age. and of peculiar interest to that por

name as its distinctive title. Rev. Dr. Bachman,
of Charleston, can probably inform us w hether

other copies of the same are to be found in the

self or his Church, this copy can probably be
purchased of its owner, or at least its use ob

for the book and refused, and a distinguished
Baptist Clergyman who has seen it looks upon
it as a treasures of much more value, even to
an antiquary or collector ofcuriosities. It may

We are not likely to be long embarrassed

Kershaw District, S. C., June 2d, 1846.
—ln January, 1844, from wet and exposure I took a
severe cold, which resulted in a high fever, accom
panied by' a severe cough and painful headache.
These continued to increase in severity for about two
weeks, so much so that my friends considered me,
and I, myself, believed 1 was in a very critical and
dangerous state. At the end of this time I sent for
an I procured two boxes of “ Spencer’s Pills,” and the
Jirst day of their use I began to experience relief, and
before I had taken one box my fever was gone, cough
had ceased and headache entirely cured. I was soon
sound and veil. I then said, and still believe, that
by the blessing of God they were the means of sav
ing my l»fe. In looking over the directions after
wards 1 saw they were recommended for the cure of
Dysjiepsia, with which my eldest daughter had been
afflicted for a longtime. I recommended her to make
trial of them, and she did so, and by a continued use
of the Pills alone was perfectly and I think perma
nently cured. Wm. Marshall.

COTTON QINS! ’
IMPROVED ON WHAT WAS BEFORE
CONSIDERED PERFECT.
IHAVE heretofore labored that my cotton gins
should be thought superior to any manufactured in
Georgia. By offering to the public such an article I
have been liberally patronized, for which I feel grate
ful. 1 have warranted all my tine gins. I have never
had one returned as not coming upto what I promised.
It is known I have, and do promise that my gins make
superior coiton. 1 have no travelling agents. I rely
on my gins telling a better tale for me, and one that
will be sooner believed than a travelling agent; in
short, I hope to make my gins sell themselves. I feel
confident in stating that I have made valuable im
provements in my fine gins, and that I shall hereafter
furnish an improved gin to anything heretofore sold.
I would also inform citizens of Warren, ashington,
Wilkes, Columbia and Burke counties, that I have
purchased Simpson’s improvement for bund machin
ery, and those who purchase my gins in the counties
named will have the use of the patent free; the ma
terial, when desired, will be put on the head block,
free of charge. It will require a small outlay of ma
terial on the band wheel, which will be furnished at
the lowest possible rate, and which, when used, re
duces the draft to an astonishing extent; the character
of the improvement is simply by propelling the ma
chinery by a slack band, instead of a tight one. My
finest Friction Roller Gins are sold at S 3 per saw.
My plain gins are also greatly improved, and will
be sold according to kind, from $2 to $2.50 per
saw. My finest ginshave heretofore sold higher than
other gins, and yet, heretofore, I have not been able to
supply the demand, whilst I have been unable to sell
but few plain gins.
Ordersor letters, addressed to me at Sparta, will be
promptly attended to, and gins delivered at purchasers’
residences free of charge

G. T. Oglesby, Esq. -Pear Sir: — Below 1 hand
my certificate, agreeably to your request, stating pre
cisely the opinion I entertain of their superiority over
any I have ever seen. I have also obtained the
certificate of Mr. Wilson, our Superintendent and Ma
chinist, who is the best judge of the quality of cotton,
as he ‘chews the bag.’ Very respectfully your friend
ruly, Thus. Cheeley*
Shoals of Ogcechee, Ga., 1847. —This is to certi
fy that I have used two of Mr. G. T. Oglesby’s Anti-
Friction Cotton Gins, (the one 60 and the other 45
saws,) for several y&irs, and can truly bay they are
superior to any thingnrwe kind now in use ; and form
an exception to what is eiaid about this being an age of
improvement, at least as far as gin making is con
cerned. Thomas Cheeley.
Brothers' Factory, Shoals of Ogcechee, Ga. March
\7th, 1847. —This is to certify that one of G. T.
Oglesby’s 60 saw Anti-Friction Cotton Gins is now,
and has been in use for the last fourteen months at
this place, and I can say with confidence that it is the
best article of the kind that I have yet seen.
B. J. Wilson. Super’tand Practical Machinist.
Savannah, March IQth, 1847.—The undersigned,
during the past season, have frequently noticed the
su|>eriority of cotton, received from those planters who
use gins manufactured by G. T. Oglesby, Esq., of
Sparta, over that from other gins. It has invariably
commanded the highest price, and very frequently
one-fourth of a cent per pound more than other cot
tons of the same class. Rabun & Fulton.
J. L. Swinney.
Augusta, February 27 th, 1847.—The undersigned
Factors and Commission Merchants, take pleasure in
recommending to the planters generally, G. T. Ogles
by & Brother’s improved make of gins, and do not
hesitate to say that the cotton ginned on them is equal
to any received in this market, and in every instance
commands from an j to | c. above highest quotations,
and in point of durability think they cannot be sur
passed. Dye & Robertson.
February Is/, 1847.—This is to certify that I have
now in use one of Oglesby’s improved cotton gins, and
that 1 consider it altogether superior to any gin I ever
used, running easy and making the cotton fine and
clear of motes. W m. Tenell.
Augusta, February 2filh, 1847. —We take pleasure
in recommending to planters generally, Messrs. Ogles
by & Brother’s improved cotton gins, and do not hesi
tate to say the cotton ginned on them is equal to any
received in this market, and will always command
the highest quotations. Doughty & Beall.
Adams, Hopkins & Co.
Heard Davison.
Sparta, February 15th, 1847. This is to certify,
that I have owned one of Mr. Oglesby’s improved
cotton gins for two years, and can safely recommend
his gins tor two reasons. The first, that they do not
cut the lint or staple as other gins. The next, I con
sular them the most durable gins that 1 have ever
used. M. G. Harris.
February 25th, 1847. —1 have used one of the
above gins lor one season, and concur fully in the
above. Benjamin T. Harris.
February 20Z/1, 1847.--We do certify, that we
have used fi»r the last two years Mr. G. T. Oglesby’s
Anti-Friction Gins, ami are decidedly of the opinion
that they are the best gins now in use in this State,
both for the fineness of the cotton and their durability,
and take great pleasure in recommending them to our
brother-farmers generally. Richard P. Sasnett.

IMPROVED COTTON G-INS.
qpHE SUBSCRIBER will continue the
1 MANUFACTURE OF GINS on hi-* usual
extensive scale, and embraces this oppe t inity to
thankJiis numerous customers for their liberal patron
age heretofore.
The estimation in which his gins are held may be
known from the fact of his having bold
over
any other Factory in the State. This evidence of the
superiority of his Gins is accounted for by his being
the first to introduce the late improvements, ami keep
ing the lead, by yearly j» ’Jing new ones. His first
ami second improvements made the quality of cotton
perfect, though some were rather slow His third
made them sufficiently fast; it then only remained to
make them more durable and convenient, which has
been done he believes effectually, bv several new im
provements the present year
Besides, he has the exclusive right for the State, and
the privilege lor other sc."lions, to furnish
REED S PATENT WATER-BOXES,
which are believed to be ten times more durable than
any other, by those who have made- a lair trial of them,
and are inf dlibly secure against fire by friction. His
fine Gins u ill gin Mastodon Cotton as well as any
other saw Gm can.
His agents will visit planters generally, and exhibit
specimens of his last improvements, and point out their
advantages in time for all to engage ami be supplied
before next ginning season; or engagements can be
in ule bv letter, directed to him, < LINTON, JONES

1 hereby certify that I purchased last year, a cot
ton gin from Messrs. W inship Johnson, and ginned
my last crop of cotton with it, and will sav, that it is
the best Gin I have ever used, and I have never seen
a better one. I sold my crop of cotton in Madison,
for an eighth of a cent over the top ofthe market. ly
would prefer it to any Carver Gin.
