from tire Philadelphia OazrUe :
Kor more tliati a week, preparation* bad been
oinking by th««e having charge of the Sunday
School attached to St Michael » Catholic Church,
..f Kcnaingtou, for a grand excttnkin and pic-nic to
tvinte off at Fort Washington, on tbe North Penn
ey lvaui* Railroad—about 14 J mile# from the city.—
A very large company waa •eeured—eaid to number
over one Utonsand ■tnoai, moat of_ whom were
• tnldreti, ami resident* of the old district of Ktn
■ingUm. To accommodate this crowd of pleaaure
oetkar*, uo !<-«* than twelve can were required, and
ti*r*e with a car, a locomotive and tender,
. •on-titated the heavy train that left the depot vee
torday morhing, ikott 5 o'clock. Mr. Alfred V. 1
IJopple. fonneny n member of Common Council
tr.-iii th* Eighteenth Ward was the conductor.
I be train proceeded at a rather slow rate for eotne
utiles, owing to the great weight to be drawn. Then
fearful that he would notreach the station in time
tiyf the down train, Mr. Hopple ordered an increase
ol speed, ami as the tram approached Dewey's
Lane, which is about 12} miles from the city, it was
running at quite a rapid rate. Still, no accident
wie apprehended, as the rules of the road required
tbe down train to wait fifteen minutes at tbe sta
tion, and if the up-train did not then ajmear to send
a uian on horseback, with a flag, ahead, to give no
t w e that the train was coming.
The regular train for the city left Gwynett at 6
o « look and 14 minutes, the conductor being Mr.
Wrn Vanstavoreu. At eighteen minutes after fi
kj clock the train reached Fort Washington station.
Finding that the excursion train hail not arrived,
Mr. Varistavoren determined to proceed slowly.—
He was cautioned, it is alleged, that he was ahead
of time, but maintained that he was not, and the
train went on. Thus, then, the execution train was
approaching the curve at Dewey’s Lane at a rapid
rate, while the down train wa* coming at an ordi
nary rate of speed—and neither conductor was an
ticipating any trouble—when there was a sudden
shriek of the nteam whistle and a turning down
of breaks- ail too !at*. The iron horse of the excur
sion train thundered around the curve and plunged
in the opposing train with an awful crash. A scene
ensued that appals all attempts at description.
The three foremost cars of the excursion train,
with their precious burden of human life, were crush
ed to piece* upon tie* locomotive and tender, and
while a larg*- number of the occupants were instant
ly killed, and w -.ogled in a horrible manner, the
shrieks ol the wounded—and of those who. though
unhurt, cried out in agony of dread—sent a thrill of
terror to the hearts of aU who heard them that can
never be forgotten. T«> add to the horrors of the
the scene, the broken engine set fire to the cars of
the excursion train, and a number of the passen
gers who were unable to get out were actully roas
ted alive !
Lines of tnen were formed, who speedily procured
buckets and axes, with which they endeavored to
extinguish the flames and rescue the unfortunate
passenger*. The fire raged with fury, however, and
utterly defied the exertions of these person*, who
were compelled to witness the shocking spectacle of
men, women and children being burned to death,
without having it in their power to extend any aid.
At this time tbe aspect of the wreck of the cars, lit
up with the devouring flames, and rendered ghastly
by t lie projection of mangled limits, was too horrible
to dwell u|»ou, and calculated to sicken the sternest
heart.
The down train suffered considerably by the col
lision. It consisted of the locomotive Aramingo, a
tender, a smoking and baggage car, and a passen
k. r car Not more than 20 paascuers were aboard.
The locomotive and tender were broken by the
■Lock, and the cars considerably iqjured. The pas
senger* were cither pitched out, down the embank
ment— here about ten feet—or tumbled together in
a manner to receive severe injuries. The engineer
and firemen were badly hurt.
Hut all attention was directed to the shocking
mass of wreck, death ami misery among the re
mains of the Excursion train. As the number of
assistants lincreased, the flames were more vigor
ously nssnih-d, and large numbers of wounded were
extricated and placed by the roadside. Persons
were sent to the nearest farm houses, and the coun
try people hastened, with all the appliances at
hand, to the scene of horror. Finally fne flames of
the burning cars were extinguished, principally
through the aid of the ('heanut II ill Fire Company,
and then the persons at the scene who were unhurt
had ample opportunity to take speedy measures for
attending to the wounded, ana removing the re
remains found among the ruins.
Mow came a fresh series of horrors. Eleven men,
women and children had been burned to death in
on* cai They were caught under one of the sides
and roasted, so that the remains when extricated
presented a shoc king spectacle. The mangled re
mains of four men and women and a child were dug
from beneath the engine and tender. The remains
ol an infant were found under the ruins of the en
gine, in the ash pan. The remains of six other bo
dies were raked out of the ashes and ranged side by
side* on the grass.
The second down train left Gwynnedat 7 2-1, and
ai lived at the scene of the disaster, at 7 40. Con
duct*] II Keysei and the engineer of the locomo
tive Cohockeink, immediately set to work, anil ren
dered every assistance that humanity could dictate,
serving water to the wounded, procuring settees,
and dispatching messengers in all directions for
physicians. Medical aid was procured from Chest
nut Hill, White Marsh, Edge Hill, and other places.
The intelligence did unt ranch this city until about 9
o’clock, and then the excitement, especially in Ken
sington, was extreme. Parents ami other relatives
ot those who had gone upon the excursion, hurried
to the various stations, and immense crowds collect
ed at every point where the slightest information
could be obtuined. No train was sent off until 10
o'clock, and then every available place upon it was
crowded. A number of physicians were among the
throng. Handcars were pressed into the service,
and tin* police hud great difficulty in keeping even
these iiius under the control of the officers of the
Company -such was the eagerness of all sorts of
people to get to the scene of the calamity.
I’lie depot at Front and Willow streets, anil the
* ’ohocksink Slat ion were surrounded with eager
thiongsof men, women and children, many of the
lath i weeping bitterly, and evidently apprehend
ing that the w orst had befallen those who were near
and dear to them.
About II o'clock ft train arrived at the Cohock
vink depot, with a large number of bodies on board
moat ol which were the remains of children— bo
mangled that they could scarcely be recognized.
Upon the name train were a number of the surviving
chiidien, and while one group of mothers were al
most frantic with grief, an they beheld the mangled
bodies of their children, another could be Been cry
ing with joy an they clasped those who had been
spared.
Among the killed were the Uev. Daniel Sheridan,
of St Michael's Church ; Mr. Lawrence Dillon, Su
perintendent of St. Michael's Sunday School, and
Henry Harris, engineer. Twenty-nine bodies were
not recognizable, they having been burned to a
Vhc tanner* in the viciuity rendered every assis
tance in their power, except one man, who demand
ed $lO for a wagon to go a mile for a physician.
At the scene of fh«* disaster the excitement among
the surviving passengers and those who came to
the ground, was at one time directed against Mr.
W in Vanstavorcn, the conductor of the down train,
whose violation of the rules of the road was alleged
to have caused the appalling calamity. That gen
tleinnn had borne the reputation of being a careful,
intelligent and reliable man, ami many were at a
I.mis t«i explain his conduct. Soon utter the accident
ho came to the city, ami immediately proceeded to
his residence, at Tenth and Buttonwood streets.
There, it is said, he appeared to be laboring uuder a
gloomy excitement, either proceeding from mental
tioiiblc, or iiynries received by the shock of the col
lision. He went out, and returned about dinner
time, when he retired tubed. About 5 o’clock in
the afternoon ho w as found dead.
The story that he had committed suicide, by ta
king arsenic, was spread throughout the city, fur
nishing material for the gossips, who have never a
sudicieut mouthful when a calamity of this kind oc
curs. Others said that grief and remorse had killed
him. Hut the brother of Mr. Yaustovoren states
that the unfortunate corductor had died from in
ternal iiyuries received by the shock of the colli
sion
Statement ok an Eye-Witness.— A gentleman
who»nw the accident, and was within fifty yards of
the spot where the collision occurred, states that the
« are on both trains were running about 30 miles an
hour On coining in sight of each other, both whist
led for “down brakes," but the distance was too
short to prevent a collision. On coming together,
both engines struck with tremendous force, reared
up and fell over their sides, the bottoms of
both engines coming together. The first two pas
»* uger care performed the same evolutions as the
engines, the third car being piled on the first two,
making a complete wreck of all, the force of the
collision scattering the buruiug cinders among the
care and setting them on fire. Two Freight cars,
belonging to the down train, containing milk, were
also hum! - making the scene one of the moat ter
rible ever beheld.
Statement or Mr. Wm. Swaim.—Mr. Win.
Swann was at t'hesuut Hill, about three miles dis
tant, when the disaster occurred, he immediately
hastened to the spot, and furnishes the Hollowing
particulars of the catastrophe that came under his
own observation:
The scene was the most awful ever witnessed.
Os five cars nothing was left standing but the
wheels, every bit of wood work was totally destroy
ed. A number of the dead were lying in a heap so
dreadfully burned that you could not tell whether
they were men or women. Amoiii* these was, it is
be!* eved. the Rev Mr. Sheridan, priest of St. Mi
« had'a Church, lie was with the excursion party,
and his body was not found.
Under the ruins the bodies of some fifteen or
eighteen persons could be seen. No portion of
them could tie reached, but their limbs—here a leg
protrud* d, and there an arm or a head could be dis
co v# red The cars could be seen burning fur a dis
tance of tour miles, and the Cheanut Hill fire com
pany hastened to the spot, and by their exertions in
extinguishing the fianies, served materially in the
work of rescuing the dead.
i'h» people around the neighborhood hastened to
the dreadlul acetic, and by every means in their
powei a listed ill the refit ! of the* wouuded. For
tunately rhor< was & quantity of n-e and ice-cream

Tbs American Bonaparte*.
A letter dated Paris, June 30th to the ludepen- . .
deace Beige, says toat the question of determining
tbe position of the son and grandson of Prince Je
rome Bonaparte, by bis first wife, Miss Patterson,
is now under consideration. All such questions, it 1
appears, have to be submitted to a family council. J i
consisting of a number of high imperial function* I I
ries. Tbe demand for the settlement is said to have »
been made by iYince Jerome bimseif, and the ex- t
lactation is, that it will forbid the Americans taking j
he name of Bonaparte, and will require them to be !
known by the name of Patterson. They obtained ;
letters of naturalization ten years ago, in winch j
thev were designated a* members of the imperial
family. Now it is feared that this may be treated
as a base on which to found certain pretensions
not consistent with the previous declared ittegiti
m Prince Jerome contends tliat his marriage with
Miss Elizabeth Patterson was null and void from
the beginning, as it was contracted between a youth
of 19 and a woman of 23, without the consent of Lis
parents and the formality of publication. It was
further declared to be null by the decree of 1805,
which dissolved the civil marriage while the proper
authorities of Paris, severed the ties of the religions
marriage, so that such an union might have no civil
effect. On the other hand the Baltimore Bonaparte.**
dispute the legality of tbe decree of 1805, ana they
adr uce various arguments in favor of their legitima
cy. They refer to the good faith of the parties in
making tbe contract of marriage, but this is ques
tioned, because it is stated tliat the contract con
tained a clause by which, as if foreseeing the possi
ble dissolution of the marriage on the demand of the
husband or his parents, he stipulated, in such &
case, for the payment to her of 60,000 francs a year,
which sum has been regularly paid to Madame Bo
naparte, (called by the French writer ‘‘Elizabeth
Patterson,” ever since the separation.
The matter has been debated with much interest.
M Allou representing Prince Serome and M. Ber
yer his son and grandsom. Some remarkable letter*
of the great Einperor, of Pope Pius VII, of the Em
peror of Russia and the King of Wurtemberg have
been read by the counsel and have excited threat
interest. Trie counsel is said to consist of M. Abba
tucci, the Keeper of the Seals, as President, by
delegation of tne Emperor, and Messrs. Fould,
Troplong, de Moray, Baroche and d’Ornano. I here
is no pomp or parade in council, which sits in a sim
ple furnished room, containing arm-chairs and a
large table with a green cover. The decision is not
expected to be made for about a month, and it is
impossible to say what will be the result. But the
French writer says that the members contemplate
an admission of the legitimacy of the Americans,
but without any interest in the succession to the
throne—a rather queer conclusion.
We are inclined to think that there is, in this
statement, many inaccuracies, but the foregoing is
a summary of the letter in the Independent Beige
from its Paris correspondent, and purports to Ik- a
report of the phase tbe cose lias assumed in France.

“ Daniel Webster’* Social Hours.”
Harper's Magazine for this month contains, un
der the above head, an article in which no more
justice is done than would conscientiously be award
ed by any one who had frequent opportunities of en
joying wbat the writer of the article referred to
characterizes as “ Mr. Webster’s Dinner Conversa
tion*/’ Had these been faithfully reported, the
writer iuatly says, Mr. Webster would have gained
as much reputation from them as from bis more
studied efforts. We are requested tc copy from the
instalment before us the following just compliment
to one of the moat unpretending of the Senatorial
body. Tbe tribute to the other three gentlemen
was not less deserved. The observer of Congres
sional proceedings during the critical and exciting
period of 1850 cannot fan to remember the impor
tant part performed by all of them, with others, in
their coraial co-operation with Messrs. Clay and
Webster, when old party affinities seemed to have
been merged in the higher consideration of what
the interests of the country demanded.
“Rusk, of Texas,” said Mr. Webster, about the
time he made his great speech on the Compromise,
“I consider the strongest man in the United States
Senate on the Democratic side. He is no spouter,
but he acts ; and upon what he says you can rely.
He will stand without being tied, and you can at
tend to your matters and find him when you return
on the same spot where you left him. He has all of
Achilles's hatred of double dealing :
“ ‘He who can think one thing and another tell,
My soul detests him as the gates of hell.’
“His indifference to fame makes him careless, or
he would assume the position in the Senate and in
f the country to which his commanding abilities enti
tle him.
“It is impossible,” continued Mr. Webster, “for
i me to feel tbe least acerbity towards such men as
Rusk, Cuss, Foote, and Dickinson. We have
stood by each other in a time of greatest moment
to myself as well as of danger to the union of
these States shoulder to shoulder. I can never for
get or refuse to acknowledge their important and
vital aid.”
A Nkw Rki.kjious Okhf.k.—A correspondent of
the Indepcndance Beige writes from Rome, that at
a meeting of prelates just held at iKiretto, under
i the presidency of the Cardinal De Angelin, it was
resolved to establish in each of their dioceses a so
ciety of Hacconi, so called from their wearing a dress
in tne form of a sack, with a hood; and also a cord
, round the loins, Handles on their feet, and a veil,
pierced with two holes for the eyes, over the face. —
Tlie correspondent adds: —“These religieux,janissa
ries of the holy office are to have the task of penetra
ting all kitchens on Fridays, peering into pots, stew
pans, and porridge basins, to ascertain whether the
prescriptions for the soup are being ransgressed:
and are also to rummage among the papers to dis
cover any trace of impiety or revolution. They will
have to denounce the ulasphemers and a portion of
' the fine is promised to them for this. At 8 o’clock
! in the eveniug, when the bell announces the Angelus
the Sacconi will take note of all who omit to kneel
even in the street, and will denounce all such. These
regulations and some others, have been issued in
form a printed form the Episcopal printing office of
Fermo.
Hunt Ship-Knees Tested.— There was a trial of
the relative strength of bent Hhip-kuees against na
tural curved knees of the same size yesterday in
New York, at ten o’clock, at the Novelty Works,
foot of Twelfth street. The trial was made under
the orders of the Sec retary of the Navy. The expe
riment this morning was on a bent ten-inch knee—
fourteen thousand pounds pressure were applied to
it, bending it inward sixteen inches, but not break
ing it. The experiments will continue for a couple
of days, and the result officially reported to the Se
cretary of the Navy. It is considered that the bent
knees will prove e<pial, if not superior, to the na
tural kuees, and that the invention will be of great
use to ship-building, since natural knees have be
come so scarce and dear. The timbers are prepared
for bending into knees by being steamed several
hours, then a pressure of eight hundred terns is ap
plied to the end of the timber which gradually bonus
it to the required curve.
Palace Discovarf.d Underground. —The re
mains of a inagnlfceut palace* have been discovered
under a garden in the Isle of Capri. It must not
only have been splendid in structure, but in situa
tion, commanding a view of the Bay ot Palermo
and Naples. Marble of various colors were used in
its construction, and all its apartments, so far os the
excavations have proceeded, are of the most spa
cious and elegant character. The doorway is
twelve feet wide, and of white marble, and the
rooms are paved in mosaic, while the walls
are painted red, blue, yellow, Ate. Several coins
of the reign of Augustus and Tiberias have been
found, some of them disclosing the curious fact
that the coins of one reign were at times re-coined
in another.
Patriotism vs. Punctii.o. —A young gentleman
in Buffalo, who became too much excited by pa
triotism and something else, on the 4th of July, put
his ami around the neck of a young lady in the
street and kissed her several times, to her great
horror, and the astonishment of the bystanders.—
The lady made no allowance for the occasion, nor
the allowance he had taken, but gave him into cus
tody and he was tried and sent to the Penitentiary
for six months! Moore in one of his songs talks
about “A kiss being the passport to Heaven”—but
in this case it was a passport to quite a different
sort of a place.
Disinfecting Agents. —The best and most sim
ple disinfecting ageut known is the chloride of zinc.
It is made by dissolving zinc in muriatic acid, and
is Hpplied in a diluted state to foul and offensive
drains, cesspools, A: c. The sulphate of zinc, how
ever, is nearly as good, is cheaper, and is more easily
managed. It can be purchased at any druggist sin
the form of a salt. A pound of it dissolved in two
pails of warm water, and thrown into an offensive
cesspool, will deodorize it. During the hot weather
this disinfecting ageut should be applied pretty free
ly in thousands of places in New Y’ork and other
cities. Copperas (sulphate of iron) may be applied
iu the same maimer and for the same purpose. It
is not such a good disinfectant as the chloride of
ziuc, but it is much cheaper. —Scientific American.
A Wealthy Shepherd. —Jonas Webb, a weal
thy Englishman, and the original cultivator of the
South Down race of sheep, is now exhibiting speci
mens of the breed at the Cattle Show in Paris. He
was dressed in a peasant 's blouse, under which he
wore a magnificent chain, reaching to his girdle.
Each link of the chain consisted of a gold medal re
ceived by the owner at some agricultural fair or
other, as a prize for the excellence of this South
Down.
American Machinery in Enwland. —We are
pleased to know that the inventive genius of Ameri
can mechanics, and the perfection of American ma
chinery are now duly appreciated iu England.—
They have the Bigelow loom for the weaving of
velvet and other tapestry carpetings, the American
Type Casting Machine, American improvements in
eelt-acting spinning mules, Americau patent axles,
McCormick's and other reapiug machines, <fcc.. Are,,
aud now they are ordering and introducing the
Type Revolving Printing Machine of Messrs. Hoe
At Co., of New York, the most perfect Printing
ress ever invented by the genius of man.
Ravages of the Chinch Bug.— The Clarkesville
(Va.) Tobacco Plant says tins insect has been more
destructive this than any previous season. The edi
tor lately saw a piece of land where com was plan
ted, utterly stripped of vegetation. The com was
about four feet high wheu the bug entered it, and so
complete was the destruction, that at the distance
of one hundred yards, no one can perceive that
anything had ever grown upon the land.
American Pork in France. —lt is stated that
the French government, finding itself at the close
of the war, with a stock of American pork on hand,
amounting to 50,00 ft barrels, advertised a public
sale of 200,000 kilos., to take place on the l*2th; but
as the limited price of 1,800 per 20 lots, or net
1,800 kilos., with five and a half per cent, auction
charges, could not be realized, the sale did uot come
oft'.
Rev. 11. W. Beecher on Col. Fremont.—
Beecher, in the New York Independent, lauds the
Black Republicans' choice iu this fashion :
“Sincethis selection has been made, we are led
most clearly to recognize in it the good hand of God ;
and to feel, as we almost never have felt hitherto,
that Providence has raised up, has endowed and
has trained this workman for his office, the Man for
the Hour. If the election iu November shall result,
as we are well persuaded that it will, iu placing him
iu the chair of tiie President of these Embed States,
then we are compelled to say that iu no instance in
all the history of onr nation, since the freight of the
Mayflower was lauded at Plymouth, will the guiding
ami governing mind of God. interposing for our pro
tection, have been more clearly shown than iu rais
ing him up to meet this crisis."
An Irishman’s Idea of America.—One of the
beet definition* of an Irishman's idea of America
that we ever saw, i« contained in the following ex
tract front “The Fairy Circle," a tale of John Broug
ham'* Irish Echoes:
“Where did ’baccy come from, Corney V inquired

“W hy from 'Men ikv, where elae ?" he replied,

CHARLESTON, July 25. Cotton —There was a mod
erately fair demand for this article, during the previous
week, and the early transactions developed no change,
but as it progressed prices stiffened in consequence of
the limited supply on sale, coupled with the receipt of
favorable advices from abroad, and when we closed our
enquiries there was a decided improvement for the bet
ter, on the middling and higher qualities, which had ad
vanced about 3c., and placing Good Middling at 113@12,
and Middling Fair and Fair at 121 cents. Since this pe
riod, however, the market has been very much neglected,
as the sales during the week just brought to a close do
not reach quite 1300 bales, taken principally for the
Northern markets. The transactions have not only
showed a full range of prices, but at times the terms
were rather in favor of the seller, but no decided advan
tage can be said to have been established, and we have
therefore renewed the quotations of the 18th instant, to
which we would refer for the state of the market at the
close of business. The receipts of the week reach 327
bales, and the sales in the same time foot up 1277 bales,
at the subjoined prices, viz : 8 bales at 101; 8 at 101; 11
at 10;; 129 at 11J; 98 at Hi; 125 at 11 j; 215 at 111; 37 at
Hi; 302 at 11 j; 82 at 121; 142 at 121; and 52 bales at 121
cents. We quote Ordinary to Good Ordinary, 91@101;
Low to Strict Middling. 103 Sill; Good Middling, 113 w
12; and Middling Fair and Fair, 121 cents. Nothing ha
been done in Long Cotton.
Rice —There was a good demand for this article during
the week, and the receipts, which comprise some 2560
tierces, have been sold. The sales have been made at
3jj w 4l, but chiefly within the range of s3s a4J per hun
dred.
Corn —The receipts of North Carolina this week em
brace some 9500 bushels, the first that has been received
from this quarter for some time back, which were sold
at 05ft 70c ; tin* latter price for a strictly prime parcel.—
The arrivals by railroad comprise 1300 bushels. We
quote nominally 70@75c per bushel.
Wheat —The receipts are on the increase, and reach
this week 8000 bushels, the bulk of which is of the new
crop, only a portion of which has been sold. The market
is still unsettled, so far as prices are concerned. Red
may be quoted at 1.35 to $1.55, and White from 1.50 to
$1.65 per bushel.
Oats. —The receipts since our last comprise some 5000
bushels Maryland, about the half of which had been sold
prior to arrival at 40c.
Hay. —The arrivals since our last reach upwards of
1900 bales, which reached a market previously largely
supplied. The market opened at $1.05, and closed at $1
per 100 lbs.
Bacon. —The transactions in all descriptions of Meat
have been very limited since our last, ami from all that
we can learn iu reference to the state of the market, we
see no reason to change the quotations of the 18th inst.
Flour. —The transect ions have been limited to small
lots, and at unsettled prices. New has brought $73 and
s7l per barrel.
Salt. —Nothing has been done in Salt. Dealers have
been unable to come to terms, or in other words, purcha
sers are not disposed to operate on the terms demanded,
which is generally 1.15 and $1.20 per sack.
Ragging and Rope —The demand has been very limi
ted, the few transactions, however, making in these ar
ticles, show an advancing tendency in’prices. We now
quote the former 17@17jc. About 300 coils Western
Rope have been sold at 11 1 and ll±c.
Sugars —The market has been at a stand this week.
Our jobbers are doing very little at present, and are not
disposed to increase their'stocks at the high prices de
manded, and hence the st&gnatimi in trade. Received
since our last 187 hlids. and 00 bbls. Muscovados.
Coffee The retail demand, which has been very limit
ed, and confined solely to Rio descriptions, has been sup
plied at 11 to 11 jc.
Molasses —Some 27 hhds. and 3 bbls. Muscovado have
been received since our last, which have not been sold.
New Orleans has been retailing at 70c, but is, we learn,
now held at 75c. per gallon.
Lard —The supply consists almost exclusively of Ten
nessee, which may be quoted at 124@12-3 in bbls., and
13@133c in kegs.
Exchanges —The market for Sterling during the week
has exhibited a decided ;ulvaneing tendency, and
closed yesterday decidedly better. We have no change
to notice in our coastwise rates.
Freights —We quote to Liverpool cotton 5-16<L for
square, and jd. in round bags. The coastwise rates are
altogether nominal, and are governed altogether by cir
cumstances.

A CURE FOR DYSPEPSIA.
SCIENTIFIC men have more difficulty in overcom
ing and controlling the various symptoms of Dyspep
sia, than almost any disease in the world. They are so
various in different individuals aud cases, that it has
seemed impossible sometimes to obtain even temporary
relief from suffering. But a medicine has been discover
ed, which proves beyond a doubt, that in most cases a
permanent cure can be effected.
Dr. H. E. Morrill, a skilful physician of New-York city,
in his remarks on Dyspepsia, says: “ The most effectual
medicine to improve the tone and energy of the stomach,
is that prepared by Dr. George B. Gret-n, and ca the
OXYGENATED BITTERS.
I would publish the recipe for preparing this valuable
medicine, if I knew what it was ; but as I do not, I can
only recommend its use. It seems to me to be improper
ly called ‘ Bitters,’ at least in the popular acceptation of
that term—for it contains uo alcohol or other spirit, and is
rather sour than bitter. Though here, by the way, I can
not but earnestly caution the dyspeptic sufferer against
using 4 Bitters,’ the basis of which is alcohol or other ar
dent spirits. They no more imparl real energy to the
stomach than a whip gives strength to a horse. The
stimulation which they excite is only temporary, and
sure to be followed by a reaction, which at length will
inevitably wear out the stomach. The medicine of
which I am speaking, obviates these objections.”
We have no hesitation in pronouncing the BITTERS
a sure cure for Dyspepsia. None except those who
have suffered all the miseries of this disease, in its vari
ous forms, can appreciate the value of such a medicine.
Symptoms of the most discouraging nature force the suf
i serer believe that his case is so peculiar that no medi
cine can reach it. To all who reason thus, we say, try
the OXYGENATED BITTERS—they have received
the highest testimonials ever given in favor of any medi
cine. Prepared bv Dr. GEORGE B. GREEN.

DAVIS’ PAIN KILLER.
ri l HIS unparalled preparation is receiving more testl-
X monials of its wonderful efficacy in removing pain,
than any other medicine ever offered to the public. And
these testimonials come not alone from the ignorant, but
; from persons of every degree of intelligence and every
rank of life. Physicians of the first respectability, and
s perfectly conversant with the nature of diseases aiul rem
> edies, have recommended this as one of the most eftectu
al in their line of preparations for the extinction of pain.
The Pain Killer is used internally and externally, ac
cording to the nature of the complaint. It has been found
, to be an excellent re-nedy for sudden Colds, Coughs, See.,
Fever aud Ague, Asthma and Phthisic, Pain in the Head,
Kidney Complaints, Piles, Rheumatic Complaints,
Bruises and Severe Burns, Canker, Biles aud Ringhams,
Weak Stomach, and General Debility, Painter’s Colie,
r Broken Breasts, See., Bowel Complaint and Dysentery,
Cholera, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Toothache, Ac.
The genuine PERRY DAVIS’ PAIN KILLER, is now
put up in panel bottles, with the words Davis’ Vegetable
, Pain Killer blown in the glass ; aud with two steel en
graved labels on each bottle—one au excellent likeness
of Perry Davis, the original inventor of the medicine ; the
other a steel engraved Note of Hand—none others can be
relied on as genuine.
Price of Bottles—l2s cents, 25 cents, 50 cents, aud sl,
respectively.
: One word m regard to Perry Davis’ Pain Killer. 1
have used that in my family for some two years, aud
take great picture in recommending it as a valuable
medicine, that should be kept in every family. I have
witnessed wonderful speedy cures by its use—recently,
within the last week, 1 have known a very severe case of
rheumatism soon relieved, and promising a speedy cure,
by this, in my estimation, invaluable remedy.

Having sold the Floyd Springs, we would respectfully
solicit the public to patronise the present proprietor,
feeling assured that ail who do so will be well pleased.
No person has ever given these Springs a fair trial with
out being materially benefitted. They have effected
many remarkable cures. Iu fact, no persons have ever
visited them, in feeble or delicate health, without ob
taining relief. Prof. Moans’ analysis shows that the wa
ter contains Sulphur, Iron, Magnesia and Soda, in suffi
cient quantities to act as a tonic, diuretic, diaphoretic and
aperient. Situated at the foot of a range of mountains,
the scenery and location are unsurpassed. Fine Roads
from the Springs to Rome and Calhoun, and conveyance
can be obtained from either of those places at any time.

ANALYSIS.
The following quantitative analysis of the Floyd
Springs, has been conducted upon the water of the diffe
rent fountains, which may be regarded as fair exponents
of the whole; qualitative experimental tests having
been employed upon the spot, and the quantitative anal
ysis having been prosecuted in the laboratory upon bot
ties filled under the surface and instantly sealed.
Neither the proprietors or the public, we appreheud,
would be much interested by an infinitcssimal detail of
the elaborate analytical processes by which most of these
recorded results are reached—nor do the usages of the
ablest analysis sanction it. They arc, therefore, with
held, and only the final estimates, after much care and
calculation, submitted to the public eye.
The decided medicinal qualities of the water as tonic,
diuretic, diaphoretic, and aperient, are satisfactorily
made out from the ingredients which they contain.
The three Springs subjected to analysis, yield each
about the same quautity of water, which may be aver- ’
aged at 2500 cubic inches per minute.

X Planter now in use, and plants corn almost up to
perfection. It opens for tlie seed, both for corn and cot
ton, and covers as it goes, with plows. The driver can
sit on the top if he chooses to do so. If the Plows are
1 taken off, the Plow can be run down a little slant, and it
i drops as well as if drawn by horse power. This Plow* is
f warranted to perform up to recommendation. Farmers
who wish to can procure this valuable Plow by sending
Five Dollars, by mail, to JEFFERSON S. HARTS
FIELD, McDonough, Henry county, Ga. They will

'» SCIRRHUS BREAST CAN BE CURED.
LET THE PUBLIC READ I
IN MEItCY to the afflicted, and the gratitude and
high opinion 1 entertain of Dr. MOSKLEY as a Surgeon
and Physician, 1 deem it my duty to mention the case of
my wife, hoping, at the same time, that all persons simi
f larly afflicted may be benefitted by 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
inass, and very painful. I procured the best medical aid
in the city of ltome, and notwithstanding the earnest and
faithful attention of the most skilful physicians, she con
tinued to grow worse aud worse, until they gave the case
up as incurable, and advised amputation. I was advised
a by many of my friends to visit DR W. It. MOSELEY,
r of Griffin, Ga., 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 satisfied by experience
) and observation, that he is the most skilful Physician in
; the Southern States in the treatment of that horrible dis
ease—Cancer. WILLIAM 11. MITCHELL,
