ttreat Britain.— A debate occurred in the House
of Commons on Friday night, tbe 15th ifist.
Mr. Roebuck rose to call the attention of the House
to “our relations’' with the United States, and moved
for the production of nil the correspondence with the
Government of tho United States, relative to the
oonduct of Mr. Crampton.
Mr Roebuck commenced by upon the
Hoiihc the necessity for the question to be properly
underatood in Great Britain, and that it should be
ascertained who wan to blame for the unsatisfactory
state of Unglabd’s relations with America. He
remarked that the laws of the United States prohibi
ted reerri ting for foreign service, and that in the
early days of the Republic ithad required a French
Minister, of the period, to bo removed [for such an
infraction of the lawn. Tlu ir jealousy on this head
was therefore natural.
Ife proceeded to show, from documents read at
the late trials in the United Staten, first, that Mr.
Crampton knew he was breaking the law ; second,
that he took means to evade it ; and third, that he
was supported in his evasion by the government
of Nova Scotia, and tin* Governor General of Cana
da, and urged to it by the Home Government.—
Under these circumstances, Mr. Roebuck contended
that the Government of the United States was jus
tified in requiring the recull of Mr. Crampton, and that
the apology which the British Government had tcu
dcro<l was a delusion upon the House and the coun
try. He therefore called, first, for a specific answer
to this question: ‘‘What instructions were given to
Mr Crumpton ?” Next, for an expression of opiu
ion on the part of the House, that they wore no
parties to this violation of the laws of the United
States.
Mr. Ilndfield seconded the motion.
“Lord Palmerston replied, defending the Govern
ment, and staling that tlic correspondence would be
produced ns soon ns the Inst despatch from the
American Government had been answered. I*ord
Palmerston thou launched into a fierce invective
against Mr. Roebuck, whom lie styled the mouth
piece of the calumnies uttered in the United States,
and ns holding a brief from the enemy. Lord Pal
merston then continued : No man could more
strongly feel than he did the calamities which would
arise from a conflict between the British nation and
the United States. These were tho sentiments of
all the people of this country; but it was one thing
to entertain a friendly sentiment toward a kindred
people, and another to entertain our feelings of self
r aspect.
“U was incumbent upon those who were charged
with the public interest to cultivate both these senti
ments, for the interests of pence were equally great
on both sides of the Atlantic, and the calamities ari
sing from a state of war would be equally disastrous;
that, however, which a government hud to consider,
was the justice of its cause, and what was befitting
the honor and dignity- of the country. He was per
suadad that this feeling was reciprocated on both
•ides of the Atlantic, whatever might be said in pop
ular speeches in America; and notwithstanding such
ebullitions as the House had just heard, which sa
vored of anything but a tendency to conciliate diffe
rences, he was persuaded there was such right feel
ing in the people of the United States that they val
ued the friendship «»f this great Umpire, and that the
Interests of both were inseparably bound up with
the eoutinuauco of friendly relat ions.
• He could not, under such circumstances, per
suade himself tlmt these matters of difference, when
they came to be laid before the Cougress of the
United States as they would before the Parliament
of Great Britain, would not receive the calm, dis
passionate. and reasonable ‘'ousideration which
was t ssentinl to an amicable settlement, and which,
he trusted, would prevent any iuteinperate individ
ual on either side, from attempting to plunge the
two countries into the calamities of war.” [Loud
cheers.]

that she increases her influence in the east. In a
word, she gains all that Russia loses. Now it s evi
dent that every accession of strength to Austria is a
matter of serious uneasiness to4*iedmont. and, after
all the latter has dene, can Lord Palmerston wish
to be more Austrian than Lord UasUereagh ? Or
can the government of Napoleon aspire to
more dolereree to Austria than Louis X\ 111, and

T't Pontwn of Prussin.- A diplomatic despatch
has i eea published, dated the 7th inst., and signed
by the Prune Minister, which represents the views
entertained by the Court of Prussia. Prussia ac
eepts the five propositions. aad is really to take
part in the Paris Conferences if invited.
Prussia engage* to procure the acceptance of
the Germanic Confederation, provided she is spe
eiallv represented at the Conferences. so as to per
mit her to follow aud appreciate the divers views
which may be entertained by the different Powers.
This is thought to refer to the filth point, though
that is not stated.
It is believed at Berlin that Austria proposes a
mi idle course, and will be satisfied if the German
Diet accepts the proposition with the otnkaiou of
the fifth point; but there is no official confirmation
•f this.
The American D^rulty. —The Paris correspon
dent of the London Globe (Lord Palmerston a or
gan says :
“It is stated that France has offered her media
tion to the Governments of England ami the United
States At the same time. I think it right to state,
that though reaching me from a good source, I think
the news wholly unworthy of credit.”
Prom the London Timet of February 15/A.
We oannot allow it to be supposed that the de
termination of England to uphold Lor rights will he
at all affected by the defiant speeches or hostile
resolutions of any assembly. It would be an abne
gation of all that gives »>s a place among nations
if we were to yield t* the threats tk.»t maybe ut
tered in the Congress or by the press of tie United
flutes. *
The citizens of those state* have told us repeod
1y what are the principles of their own rulers. The
men, their motives, what each has to gain or lose,
bow one looks to war for re-election, tow another
receives credit for having purposely made a treaty
ambiguous, having been assented again and again
bv countrymen who may be supposed better in
traeedthM atxrtelvsa. We will take Washington
and Its political morality on this trustworthy testi
mony. . . .
The que-fkm then is, are we to recede from rights
long admitted and openly exercised, because certain
men s el« etioneerfeg tactic* demand loud words and
bellicose demonstrations t We believe that much of
this rwfclrtwnew is owing to the habitually pacific
tout- in which the United States are constantly spo
ken of in England. Such a tone w, indeed, only a
sign of the spirit which animate* our people, l>oth
liigh and low ; all classcH are anxious to remain on
terms, not only of peace, but of cordiality with a na
tion so near akin to our ow n no English statesman
would dare to speak in terms of disparagement or
hostility of the millions across the A tfaotic.
But, if the sentiments uttered in English society
be received as proofs of timidity, if they encourage
immoral politicians to ac ts of defiance through a be
lief in English or embarrassment, then
it is time that they should be explained. This coun
try wishes to do no wrong; but yet is determined to
suffer none.
Tina country knows the blessings of peace, but
wo* never more than now convinced that there are
some evils even worse than war, and foremost
among them the habit of concession to ill-founded
demands merely because it is for tbe moment less
troublesome to acquiesce than to resist.
England cares little for tlie Hay of Islands, and
lees, if possible, for the King of the Mosquitos; but
she does core for rights which—only because they
are rights—are aa sacred when they regard an in
significant territory as if the destiny* of Canada or
Jamaica were involved. It is in the interest of the
United State* and of peace itself that we refuse to
give up to mere clamor what lias been admitted as
our right, though we would gladly surrender it if ; it
could be decided that the right was in the United
States.

Pence Negotiation*—Austria’* Declaration.

The Times’ Paris correspondent ia assured that

The Paris correspondent of the Independance

side of Sebastopol lx* considered as a land fort, the
coniplete ruin of the southside of the city having
removed all that atfects its maritime character.
As to Nieolaieffj Russia, it is said, does not expect
that the suppression of this important dockyard
(which can be devoted the more exclusively to mer
chant vessels, since it was at Sebastopol that the
vessels hitherto were armed) will be insisted upon.

Austria's Declaration to the German Diet. —The
following is the text of the declaration presented to
the German Diet at Frankfort by Austria on the
7th of February:
Conformably to tho orders of his Court, the Impe
rial Envoy, President of the Diet, lias the honor to
lay before the High Assembly copies of a despatch
addressed bv the Imperial Cabinet, under date of
lfith Dec. lust, to the Austrian Envoy at St. Peters
burg, Count Esterhazy; and of a document from
Count Nesselrode, Chancellor of Russia, dated lfith
January, and addressed to Count Esterhazy.
The High Diet will be convinced by these docu
ments that the Imperial Court, after coining to an
understanding with the governments of France and
England on the preliminaries of a peace, which the
three above mentioned powers deemed conforma
ble to the object of their alliance and to the general
interest of Europe, seriously recommended the ac
ceptance of these conditions by the Court of St. Pe
tersburg, and that his Majesty the Emperor of Rus
sia, actuated by the desire to restore to the world
and to his empire the blessings of peace, resolved
to adhere without reserve to the Austrian proposi
tions.
The Imperial Envoy has moreover received the
order to present a copy of a protocol, signed at
Vienna on the Ist February, enregistering that the
representative* of Austria, France, Groat Britain,
Russia and Turkey have paraphrased the text of the
above mentioned preliminaries, and that at the same
time they notified the intention of their Courts to
nominate plenipotentiaries to meet at Paris within
three weeks at latest, to proceed to the formal con
clusion of a preliminary convention, to the negotia
tion ot an armistice, and to the opening of definit
ive negotiations for pence.
It is a lively satisfaction for the Emperor Francis
Joseph to have it in his power to express, in the
midst of tho Governments of Germany, the hope that
the moment is not far off when the unhappy compli
rations of the last few years are about to receive a
oucitic solution. His Majesty is convinced before
liand that the high confederates will fully share liis
sentiments. If a guarantee in this respect were
necessary, the fact would suffice for the Imperial
Court that the Government of his Majesty the King
of Prussia, the august friend and ally of the Empe
ror, has employed all his influence to bring Russia to
a conciliatory decision, and that the language which
the other Courts of Germany employed at St. Peters
burg contributed toward the same end.
Hailed with joy in every part of Europe, the re
turn of peace—let the Imperial Government be al
lowed to put faith it—win be welcomed with par
ticular satisfaction by the High Diet, in considera
tion of importance which the conditions destined to
form the tenor of the treaty of peace will have for
the political and commercial interests of the whole
of Germany.
Those conditions are essentially the same as those
already approved by the Confederation in general
by previous resolutions, and which it declared its
wish to adopt more particularly, and to maintain the
first two in the point of view of German interests.
If the bases for the maintenance of which the Con
federation thus pronounced itself have now received
a more complete development, the Cabinets of Vi
enna. Paris, and London, whose deliberations could
only produce a programme of a moderate peace, lmd
a double object in view—to prevent in the moat effi
cacious manner the return ot the disastrous troubles,
which tho world now desires to see terminate, and.
by a sufficiently precise draught of the prelimina
ries, to make sure of a stronger guarantee for the
re-establishmeut of a definitive agreement. The
high Government of the Confederation will recog
nize that the guarantees which the future peace
must bring will not be the less precious, especially
for Germany, by the development given to these
points.
On the other hand, they will not disown that the
said Powers, faithful to the principles tho collective
recognition of which constitutes the bond of their al-
lianec, have conscientiously excluded any proposi
tion winch would not be fully justified by an incon
testable European right, und which, for that very
reason, would not be of a nature to be accepted
with honor by each of the great Powers which di
vide them, in the first rank, the responbility of peace
and of the prosperity of Europe.
The Imperial Court entertains the firm conviction
that this spirit of moderation and solicitude for
the general welfare of nations will also prevail at
the conferences which will shortly open, nud that,
conaequensty, the right expressed)*’ reserved in the
fifth point for the belligerent powers to propose, in
addition to the points of guarantee, new conditions
in a European interest will not be exercised in a
sense which might have the effect of again compro
mising the work of peace so happily commenced.
As a member of the Confederation, the Imperial
Court hopes that the high assembly will see in the
present communication a motive for declaring be
fore Europe that the whole of Germany, united
with Austria, accepts and is resolved to maintain
the bases upon winch the approaching conferences
are to erect und consolidate a general peace.

Extract of Letters per Steamer America.
LIVERPOOL, Feb. 15.—Our la.-t circular advices
wore dated the Bth inst. We are since in receipt of ac
counts per Hermann, America and Baltic ; the latter in
response to the more favorable reports forwarded from
this per Arabia. Previously to these arrivals hopes were
indulged in that antecedent ai!\ices would have had a
depressing influence on prices at the American shipping
ports and thnt many orders at low limits would have
been executed; the disappointment experienced in this
regard, coupled with reduced estimates of the crop,
caused a lively demand for the staple, amounting to ex
citemeut about the middle of the week—both speculators
and exporters participating freely in the business. Yes
terday and to day there is not so much animation, and
the market is scarcely so firm at the extreme advance
prices, however, close about 3-1 fid. to fd •#>• lb higher than
hint week’s quotations, especially on clean good staple
Cotton, which is relatively scarce, and which has enlisted
offers for, and sales of, parcels to arrive on the basis of
53d®5Jd for middling <lrleaus. A more active trade has
transpired In the manufacturing districts and the hopes
of a pacific result to the Paris Conference induces a feel
ing of confidence in the. future, and a gradual relaxation
of the existing stringency in money matters. The last
received East India accounts give promise of a good crop
of Surat Cotton, which, later on, may influence the price
of low American, although some time must elapse before
any quantity can reach this country, and our require
ments being large, we have need for heavy supplies from
whatever quarter it may come. The sale's to-day are es
timated at 10,000 bales, 3,000 to speculators and ex
porters.
The total sales of tho week amount to 92,070 bales, of
which 09,800 are American. Speculators have taken
27,530, and exporters 9,440, leaving 55,100 bales of all
kinds to the trade.
The import forsarac time is 79,245 bales, of which 70,303
are American.
1 lie quantity known to bo at sea from American ports
is about 109,000 bales.

The Manchester market for both Goods and Yarns has
been actod upon by tho altered position of our Cotton
market, and a corresponding advance obtained for most
makes of both articles, with, however, greater activity
in the latter than the former, and many spinners are so
deeply engaged that they decline taking fresh orders.
Our Grain market still wears a quiet aspect, and busi
ness is confined to the requirements of local consumers.
The downward tendency of prices is for the moment ar
rested, but as transactions are circumscribed, and only
the best qualities of Wheat and Flour are in any request,
rates are scarcoly tested. Indian Corn has been more
pressed for sale, and in tho abscnco of demand, a decline
of Is to 2s quarter must be made in order to realize.
Business was very limited at to day's market, and all ar
ticles were sparingly dealt in, pricos tending downwards.

LIVERPOOL, Fob. 19. —Tho Cotton market has been
quiet sinco the date of the above Circular, the business
for the three days being 27,000 bales with 9000 to export

slightly iu favor of buyers. The Manchester market is
quiet to-day with steady rates for Yarns aud Goods.

LIY ERPOOL, Feb. 19.—— Cotton. —Since our circnlar
of 16th Inst., we have received per Africa, American ad
vices to the sth inst; shipments were rather heavier, but
receipts falling off, prices had advanced and freights
were tending upward. These accounts had the effect
of strengthening our market, without, however, impart
ing any animation. Speculators, though operating to a
fair extent, are not large buyers, and spinners having
taken a considerable quantity during the last fortnight,
now purchase more moderately. The sales on Saturday
amounted to 8000 bales, on Monday to 1000 bales, and to
day to 7000 bales- Prices are without alteration from
Friday. Tho demand now runs chiefly on the good or
dinary to middling qualities, tho better descriptions be
ing rather neglected; lower grades, which hitherto
were comparatively dear on account of their scarcity,
are getting more abundant, having formed the bulk of
the late arrivals, aud they can now be bought on rather
easier terms.

at to-day’s market, and a good business has been done in

HAVRE, Feb. 18. — Cotton —Our cotton market, wkich
was exceedingly dull, with drooping prices, on Wednes

bile middling.
On Thursday the sales amounted to 1.800 bales, exclu
sive of some lots on delivery. On Friday the market re
lapsed again into a dull state; the sales wore only 800
hales, and tho advance in prices were entirely lost.
On Saturday the transactions amounted to 900 bales,
aud the market closed dull, traders not being disposed to
come forward, as the imports from the United States con
tinue large.
The arrivals since the departure of the last steamer has
been as follows :—Riversmith and Alexandia from Mo
bile; Bavaria from New York: Borneo, from Charles
ton ; Oroondatcs and Cordelia, from New Orleans. —
Our present stock of Cotton is 93,000 bales against 33,000

CHARLESTON, March 7.— Cotton. —The market
opened on Friday last w ith a moderately fair demand,
and purchasers were progressing with the execution of
their orders upon the basis of the above quotations, when
the trade, through the agency of the electric wires, were
put in possession of the advices brought over by the
steamer America. Under tbe influence of these advices
prices immediately rallied, and at the close of business
stood as high as at any period during the previous week.
The sales of the day reached nearly 2600 bales, 1600 of
w Uich were sold after the accounts' were made public.—
A good demand prevailed ou Saturday, and the opera
tins of Monday and Tuesday were also large, but the
transactions during this period, as was said, did not sus
tain the prices paid immediately on the receipt of the
America’s advices : be- this, however, as it may, an un
usual degree of attention was drawn to the article on
Wednesday; and the sales, which reached upwards of
6800 bales—the heaviest day’s work of the season—es
tablished a higher range of'figures ;l,an had been paid at
any previous j t-riod. at least such is the fact, so far as the
middling and higher grades are concerned The trans
actions of yesterday, which reached 3.276 bales, fullv
sustained these terms, and the week closed at the quota
tions given below, from which it will be seen that prices
have advanced I 3 ?c. on the rates current this dav week.
The receipts since our last reach 19.423 bales, and the
sales in the same time may be estimated at 26,600 bales,
at the subjoined prices, viz : 20 bales at 8j; 193 at 8* 115

The market at our last review closed firm at the fol
lowing quotations : Ordinary to Good Ordinary 94 to &J;
Low Middling 9i to —; Strict Middling 9} to’9i : Good
Middling 91 to 101, and Middling Fair 101 to 10§—opera
tors waiting further advices, then fully due. On Friday
the same feeling prevailed up to noon, when the America,
with Liverpool dates to the lt.tbuit.. was announced by
Telegraph as having arrived at Halifax. This intelli
gence checked operations in this market for the remain
der of the day; the morniugs sales footing up 821 bales.
On Saturday an active demand prevailed, and 1,206 bales
changed hands at an advance of stoic. The same feel
ing was manifested on Monday and 796 bales were sold
at the advance obtained the day previous, the marke t
closing firm. Tuesday the Telegraph reported about
noon, the Baltic’s arrival at New York, with dates four
days later from Liverpool, (to the 20th.) They had a de
pressing influence on our market, the sales of the day
only reaching 600 bales, most of which were effected pre
vious to her announcement. Wednesday was another
dull day—but 131 bales changed hands. Yesterday 1,300
bales were reported at prices showing a slight d’ecline.
The market at the close of operations lan evening was
quiet, and so irregular and unsettled in prices, that estab
lished quotations could not be arrived at. Wo would re
mark that the difficulty of making freight engagements,
owing to the seacity of unengaged foreign and domestic
vessels, has some influence on operations in tho staple.

Allowing for one day more in February this year, the re

Sea Islands —The sales this week have been the largest
of the season, footing up some 1306 bales at extremes
ranging from 16 to 55c per lts—only two bales at the lat
ter figure. Tho principal transactions wore at prices
from 20 to 33 cents.
Rice —The market is active at prices ranging from 3*
to 4* cent per pound. We have to report 1216 tierces at
these rates. There have been no exports since our last
review.

•146 exported to Boston.
Flour —We have no improvement to notice in this ar
ticle. Our last review reported a dull and drooping mar
ket, with a very heavy stock in first hands. The same
feeling continues, and prices are if anything lower in
some descriptions. Sales are reported of 1465 sacks Au
gusta Canal Flour at $1 4>" sack. Marietta Mills arc
quoted at $9 to $9.50 bbl.; Atlanta Mills, $4 in sacks
and $8.50 bbl No transactions in other brands have
boon reported. The market quotatious arc for Georgia
Flour $8 to $ 10.50 <*>■ bbl.
Corn —Little or no business is doing in this article.—
The stock is very large and holders are compelled to sub
mit to present low prices in order to effect what few sales
are making. We continue to quote 60 to 65 cents as the
ruling rates. Some 2000 bushels were reported to us as
having changed hands at the latter figure. %
Oats —The market is bare of this grain. A good arti
cle would readily command 65 to 70c. •$> bushel, at which
rates it is in fair request.
Hay.— The supply in first hands is good, as is also the
demand from the trade. We quote Eastern o«. the wharf
the same as last week, viz : $1.43; retailing from stores
at $1.62®51.75 per cwt. Northern is selling from stores
at $1.37® $1.50 per cwt.

10c. on the wharf. The range of prices at which N. O.
Sugar is held 91 to 12c. per lr>.
Molasses. —The market is well supplied, and the de

former retailing at 48 to 50c., and the latter at 53c. per
gallon.
Fawn. —We hear of a small lot of sides to arrive being
sold at 12c. per lb. The supplies are not in yet, and we
are therefore unable to report quotatious this week. Re

for Cotton and Corn, are inferior to no plantations in the
world. Also, an elegantly improved and beautiful resi
dence adjoihiug Summerficld, eight miles from the city
of Selma, with about four hundred acres attached to it.
The dwelling-house, offices, out-houses, grounds, garden,
Ac., are all in first rate condition.
These Plantations are 70 or 80 miles below the city o:
Montgomery, about 150 miles above Mobile, and west ol
and near to’thc Alabama River, which is at all seasons
avigablc for steamboats. Near seven thousand acres,
including four of the Plantations, are on the Selma and
WoodviUe Railroad ; and on this body of land, about 14
miles from Selma, is located the depot at the junction ol
the Marion Railroad with the Selma Road, to and from
which depot the cars run regularly. Os the other Planta
tions. one i§ on the Selma Railroad, two are two miles and
two are six miles distant, one of which is within six miles
of the city of Selma. These Plantations are in the high
est state of cultivation, with good gins, gin bouses, cot
ton-presses, mills, negro cabins, shops, stables, artesian
w ells. Ac., Ac.
1 will sell them in tracts to suit purchasers, of 500. 100Q,->
1500, 2000, or 3000 acres, and so laid off as to givo as much
open and wood-laud to each tract as may be desired, and
with or without the negroes, stock, plantation tools, corn
provender, Ac.
Possession of the above Plantations and Negroes will
be given to the purchasers at any time whilst tbe crop is
growing, or in December or January next, as they may
wish.
If not sold privately previous to the first Monday in
December next. I will. on that day, at Selma, sell
to the highest bidder, such negroes as may then be un
sold.
Such opportunities and advantages were never before
presented for those wishing to continue, or to engage in
the cultivation of cotton. It has been difficult for years
past to find a plantation in the “cane-brake” region for
sale at any price, or even to purchase there a large unrm
prored tract.
Those Plantations are, in fertility, facilities for trans
penation, and in all other respects fully equal, if not
superior, to any in the cotton growing States: and
I know that j>ersonal investigation will prove to the sat
isfaction of every one, that no portion of the Union
is more healthy‘than the‘cane-brake” region of Ala
bama.
1 will also sell privately, for cash, or on time, one of the
most beautifully improved private residences in the city
of Selma, and several valuable and elegantly finished
large blocks of Brick Buildings, including the largest
and most desirably located store-rooms, offices, banking
houses. Ac., Ac.
Also, several very desirable unimproved large lots,
and smali tracts of land in and contiguous to Selma.
Also, about thirty head of blooded horses—among
which is the celebrated ’‘Brown Dick,” several superior
brood mares, several young stallions, geldings, colts,
and fillie*—all of them* from the very best racing Stock.
Among the Negroes is a first rate Trainer, several good
race-riders, and many excellent mechanics, cooks, seam
stresses and house-servants.
For further particulars address the undersigned, or W
M. Byrd. Esq., at Selma, or W. M. Brooks. Esq., at Ma
rion. Perry county. Alabama. The Overseers now on the
j Plantations, will give all desirable information to those
! who may wish to make a personal investigation of the
I premises, BEN. EDWARDS GREY.

GREENWAY INSTITUTE.
Classical and English School—Malt and Female.
AT THOMSON, GA.
THE undersigned, having permanently located
Teachers, respectfully solicit the patronage of thei
friends and the public generally.
From years of experience in teaching, and a constant at
tention to the duties of their profession, they flatter them
selves that the system of instruction which they are now
prepared to give students pursuing & regular classical
course, cannot be surpassed by any similar institution in
the State. To parents, therefore, designing to give their
sons a Collegiate education, their sendees are especially
tendered, since a thorough acquaintance with the pre
paratory studies is indispensable to the student’s progress
throughout his whole course. In their Academy pupils
will be prepared to enter the higher classes of College, or
if preferred, thoroughly instructed .n a more practical
and business course.
The accessibility, health and quietness of their loca
tion—its freedom from scenes and causes of dissipation
induce them to hope for a continuance of that liberal
patronage which for many years they have not failed to
secure.
A strict regard will be paid to moral training, and the
general deportment of each pupil carefully observed.

SOIRRHUS BREAST CAN BE CURED.
LET THE PUBLIC READ!
IN MERCY to tho afflicted, and the gratitude and
high opinion 1 entertain of Dr. MOSKLEY an a Surf.e >n
and Physician, I deem it my duty to mention the case of
my wife, hoping, at the same time, that all persons simi
larly afflicted may be beuefitted bv it. In the first part
of this year, my wife had several small lumps to make
their appearance in her breast. They continued to in
crease in size, until the whole breast became a diseased
mass, and very painful. I procured the best medical aid
in the city of Koine, and notwithstanding the earnest and
faithful attention of the most skilful physicians, she con
tinued to grow worse and worse, until they gave the case
up as incurable, and advised amputation. I was advised
by many of my friends to visit DR. W. R. MOSELEY,
of Griffin, Oa., which I did, and, astonishing as it may
seem, he had her entirely cured within one month , and she
is now in good health! I would advise all who are af
flicted with Scirrhus, and Cancerous affections, to visit
the Doctor without delay, as I am satislied by experience
and observation, that ho is the most skilful Physician in
tho Southern States in the treatment of that horrible dis
ease— Cancor. WILLIAM H. MITCHELL,
