Fanny Fern Dead.—A Graphic no
tice of her Xtife.
From the New York Tribune.]
Sarah Payson Willis, wife of James
Parton, whose death occurred yester
day, though she has left few enduring
literary works, has earned with her
pen a wide celebrity. Born at Port
land, Me., in 1811, she seems to have
passed through a somewhat stormy
and cloudy girlhood and womanhood,
and passed into a mature life before
she made an entrance into the field of
literature. She was a descendant of
two old Puritan families of New Eng
land, and, in common with her broth
er, N. P. Willis, inherited from father
and mother a large share of mental
power and genius. The father of
Sarah Willis was a founder of the Pu
ritan Recorder, a religious journal,
jiublished in Boston, and The Youth’s
Companion, printed in the same city.
The mother of the Willis children,
Nathaniel, Richard and Jane, is de
scribed as a large-brained, great-heart
ed woman, of most lovable chaiacter.
When Sara was yet a child, her family
removed to Boston, where she passed
all her early years. She was educated
at Hartford, Conn., by Miss Catherine
Beecher, and was recognized as a clev
er young lady, high-spirited and eccen
tric, and addicted to mischievous and
comical escapades.
While yet young, and soon after
leaving school, she married Mr. Eld-
ridge, of Boston. After the birth of
three children, she was left a widow
and in somewhat embarrassed circum
stances. Of these straits came her
first literary venture, and, in 1851.
she offered an essay signed “Fanny
Fern” to one of the literary weeklies
of Boston. It was accepted, and ac
ceptable, for the great reading public
immediately demanded more, and ‘Fan
ny Fern’ grew into fame and favor.
These leaflets were gathered into a
volume with the title of ‘Fern Leaves’
and had a great sale, no less than 75,
000 copies of the book having been
sold. “Little Ferns for Fanny’s Little
Friends,” her next book, had a fair
sale, and a second series of the
“Leaves” reached a very large edi
tion. In 1S54, her novel, “Ruth Hill,
appeared ; it was not a genial book,
and over its family revelations and al
lusions a generous charity draws a vail
of forgetfulness. “Rose Clarke,” pub
lished in 1857, was a more sunny
work, and commanded a wider circle
of readers than even the unhappy no
toriety of its predecessor had attracted.
The two novels were the only ones
which “Fanny Fern” ever published;
they provoked much criticism, and
were read by thousands who sought in
their pages the same grace and vivaci
ty which had been the charm of her
less pretentious writings.
In 1S56 the subject of this sketch
was married to Mr. James Parton, of
this city, the brilliant and effective his
torical writer and essayist. Since her
marriage her published writings have
not been voluminous, but their char
acter has been considerably modified
and improved, compared with those of
her earlier career. She w T as “a good
hater,” and her pen, gentle and mild
enough when pursuing congenial
themes, was pointed and galling when
engaged in the chastisement of vice
cant or snobbery. She had a fierce ha
tred for every sort of hypocrisy, and
with the inevitable tendency of one
who pursues these subjects with per
tinacity, she sometimes drifted into ex
travagauces and uncharitableness. As
a writer of brief sketches and essays
for the weekly press she excelled ;—
and in the production of these she was
indomitable in industry, fertile in re
source, and boundless in patience.—
She has shown her struggling sister
hood what woman can do with the
pen ; for, in spite of numberless obsta
cles, she won herself a place in current
literature, a generous income, and
many honest friends and admirers.
Her life was not always sunny ; but
its closing years were unclouded save
by bodily ills ; and, after a long, busy
wrestle with life’s problems, she sleeps
well at last.

Hydrophobia—Is there any Cure
fof It ?—Every few weeks we read in
the daily papers an account of some
new case of hydrophobia. We do not
know of any more terrible and shock
ing form of disease. It is harrowing
to one’s feelings to merely read a des
cription of the sufferings of its vic
tims. Is there any cure for it? A cor
respondent of the Detroit Tribune des
cribes a case where the man was in
convulsions and barked like a dog, but
which seems to have been successfully
treated. The Tribune says: “During
these convulsions the patient would
seize the pillows from his bed in his
teeth, and shake and rend them with
all the seeming ferocity of an angry
dog. An intense dread of water also ex
hibited itself. The doctors decided to
place the patient upon the same treat
ment which had been successful in a
former case, which, for the aid it may
be to others who suffer from this dis
ease, we here give, as follows: The
injection under the skin of large doses
of morphine and the administration of
lajge doses of caster, which is a power
ful anti-spasmouic. About one grain of
sulphate of morphine was injected un
der the skin once in four hours, and
half a drachm of powdered castor, mix
ed with syrup, giveii internally. The
effect was to produce sleep in about an
hour and a half, which lasted about
the same time, when the couvulsions
returned at intervals of an hour to an
hour and a half until 9 o’clock Sunday
morning, when the last convulsion oc
curred ; after which he suffered severe
ly from obstinate vomiting until Mon
day at 10 o’clock when that also ceas
ed leaving the patient comparatively
easy, but very much prostrated.
Since that time he lias gradually im
proved, and now is to all appearances,
quite well. In addition to the above
treatment small quantities of chloro
form were inhaled at times, and on
Sunday morning the patient was wrap
ped in a woolen blanket wrung out of
warm solution of muriate of ammonia,
eighteen to twenty grains to the ounce.
This was the treatment which check
ed this feariul malady and. which the
doctors, for the sake of humanity, are
anxious should be published to the
world and thoroughly tested.”

Ayer’s Sarsaparilla,
ron PiRirmo tub blood.
The reputation this ex-
eellent medicine enjoys,
is derived from its cures,
many of which are truly
marvellous. Inveterate
cases of Scrofulous dis
ease, where the system
seemed saturated with
corruption, have been
g urifled and cured by it.
crofuloua affections and
disorders,which were ag
gravated by the scrofu
lous contamination until
they were painfully afflicting, have been radically
cured in such grea't numbers in almost every sec
tion of the country, that the public scarcely need to
be informed of its virtues or uses.
Scrofulous poison is one of the most destructive
enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and unfelt
tenant of the organism undermines the constitution,
and invites the attack of enfeebling or fatal diseases,
without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again,
it seems to breed infection throughout the body, and
then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop
into one or other of its hideons forms, either on the
surface or among the vitals. In the latter, tuber,
cles may be suddenly deposited in the lungs or
heart, or tumors formed in the liver, or it snows
its presence by eruptions on tbe skin, or foul nicer-
aliens on some part of the body. Hence the occa
sional use of a bottle of this Sarsaparilla is ad
visable, even when no active symptoms of disease
appear. Persons afflicted with the following com
plaints generally find immediate relief; and, at
length, cure, by tbe use of this SARSAPARIR-
RA: St. Anthony’s fire, Rose or Erysipelas,
Tetter, Salt Rheum, Scald Mead, Ringworm,
Sore Eyes, Sore Ears, and other eruptions or
Visible forms of Scrofulous disease. Also in the
more concealed forms, as Dyspepsia, Dropsy,
Heart Disease, Fits, Epilepsy, neuralgia,
and the various Vleerous affections of the muscu
lar and nervous systems.
Syphilis or Venereal and Mercurial Diseases
are cured by it, though a long time is required for
subduing these obstinate maladies by any medicine.
But long continued use of this medicine will cure
the complaint, Reueorrheea or Whites, Uterine
Ulcerations, and Female Diseases, are com
monly soon relieved and ultimately eured by its
purifying and invigorating effect. Minnte Direc
tions for each case are fonnd in our Almanac, sup
plied gratis. Rheumatism and Gout, when
caused by accumulations of extraneous matters
in the blood, yield quickly to it, as also River
Complaints, Torpidity, Congestion OT Inflam
mation of the River, and Jaundiee, when arising,
as they often do, from the rankling poisons in the
blood. This SARSAFAR1RRA u a great re
storer for the strength and vigor of the system.
Those who are Ranguid and Ristless, Despots
dent, Sleepless, and troubled with Ferrous Ap
prehensions or Fears, or any of tbe affections
symptomatic of Weakness, will find immediate
relief and convincing evidence of its restorative
power upon trial.

ENEWER
Every year increases the populari
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring Gray
or Faded Hair to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. It removes all eruptions
and dandruff, and, by its tonic prop
erties, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. By its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
baldness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create a new growth, except in
extreme old age. It is the most eco
nomical Hair Dressing ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, M.IX,
State Assayer of Massachusetts, says,
“The constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent quality;
and I consider it the Best Prepa
ration for its intended puqioses.”

T HESE GINS were sold the past season for the
first time. They aro made under Mr. Gullett’s
personal supervision, at his works in Lonisiana, who
never allows one to be sent from his works until it
has been fully testod. and made to gin perfectly in
every respect. This mode of testing is very impor
tant to the purchaser, as he does not run the risk of
receiving and setting up a Gin to find it. on trial, to be
imperfect.
The IMPROVED GIN differs materially from the
Steel Brush Giu foimerly sold by us, in as much as tbe
Steel Brush has three brashes, while the New Gin has
but one.
We guarantee every Gin to be of very light draft,
to thoroughly clean the seed, and make a superior sam
ple. Besides, it is simple in its construction, oaaily
adjusted and gins very last.
We respectfully refer to all those who have used the
Improved Gin the past Winter.
Planters wishing Gins will consult their own inter
ests by either writing to us for our Circular witb Cer
tificates, or calling at oar office and examining for
themselves before purchasing elsewhere.
We will take back every Gin which does not work
well when fairly tested,and pay all expenses incurred
bv the purchaser.
