Blackicond's Magazine for April contains the fol-
lowing articles : .
“Alice Lorraine," which wa3 co:nmenced iMt
mouth, is not only interesting, but is fully equal, if
not superior, to the serials usually published by this
magazine. 1 he description of Bonny’s donkey is ex
cellent, and wo can almost see the cherry-trees cov
ered with blossoms, and the lively scene in Covent
Garden .Market, ami can sympathize with Alice, when
she goes, “bold as a sheep,” to the “star-gazer’i
closet." . . , . .... .
Another pretty p’ct'jre is drawn for us in alen-
tioe and his Brother,” where “Val” and “Vi,” hav
ing played truaut, arc found like the “Babes in tne
Wood.” “Disorder in Dream land ’ terminates with
disappointment of the heroes and death of the hero
ine, while the render is left to “judge whether or not
there is Disorder in Dreamland.”
“New Books’ begins by contrasting Mrs. Soiner-
ville’s “Memoi/s” with John Stuart Mill’s “Autobio
graphy,” jiives a review of the former work, tout
ing on the more important events of her life, and in
troducing several charming quotations, and then
save : “We piomised the reader to reconcile him to
the literary craft by the books at present on our table
We shall do more; we will make his heart swell with
vyinpatliv over one of the most tender and touching
ot love tales. The ‘Journal et Correspondence de
Audre Marie Ampere* is uie of those books which,
perhaps, it is half profane to publish, but which, once
published, become to every sympathetic reader not
books |but incidents a*id persons he has known as
of bis own recoiled ions.” Two or three pages are de
voted to “Prosper Merinn e's Letters a une Inconnue,
and the very pleasant article closes with a notice of
“Dr. Guthrie’s Autobiography ” ^ .
“International Vanities. No I^» ■ Decorations.
“Orders began with chat ity, piety, aud battle: they
terminate iu a buttonhole!" “The monkish, cluval-
ft.*, half legendary knights of eight hundred years ago
are, for the most part, icprt-eented now bjr highly res
pectable gentlemen in black coats or uniforms, # w ho
wear specialj«wel r y at Continental evening paihes.
Afier the luregoing statement the story of the K.uiglits
is told, fiom the 01 igin of the “Hospitallers of St John,
whose badge or order was a white linen cross, to the
present time, showing how we have been led gradual
ly from “the badges »*f the soid-ers of Holy Church to
the decorations by which democratized honor is now
offered as a bait to everybody who is worthy enough,
or lucky enough, to win w hat are supposed to be its
emblems.” ,
‘‘The magazine closes with a long artic.e on the
Political Situation,” and a graphic account of “Ashan

extended tour in that region W c hope that the soup
they had ‘‘before starting’’ had no connection with
the uisappearar.ee of the lizard mentioned in the pre*
ceding seLtenco.

Temperance 3.allyi n o.
Messrs. Editors: I hope every mail,
woman anil eLilil in Baldwin county will
go to licar tlie temperance address at the
State House next Friday, 1st of May. If
any thing is ever done for the cause of
sobriety, now is the time to effect it. Every
man who desires to prosper in this world
—every citizen who desires to see his
country prosper—every man who has a
friend on the road to destruction—should
now rally around tlie temperance flag.—
Come one, come all, to die rescue. We
want no street singing or praying, but
we want plain talk that will touch the
heart of all.
A Friend of Temperance.

Convict laborers in Baldwin.
Editors Telegraph and Messenger: I
had occasion recently to visit the “Kao
lin” works of Henry Stevens, Esq.,
located at No. 1 Milledgeville and Eaton-
ton railroad. You remenber, doubtless,
that he was one of the parties to whom
the Governor let a number of convicts.
Perhaps some information concerning
this, deemed by many a doubtful experis
ment, will be of interest to your readers
and to the public generally.
Mr. Stevens, in the management of his
fellon hirelings, has adopted the plan of
“division of labor”—one of the “funda
mentals” of political economy. He ap
portions them in squads ‘ranging from
five to eight each, and assigns each their
respective tasks. Over each “squad” he
places a guard whose business it is both
to direct their labors and prevent their
escape. He has them engaged at a va
riety of tasks—some digging clay, some
manipulating it and forming it into
bricks pipes, sewerage, coffins, etc., some
cutting and sawing lumber, others work
ing in the farm, ploughing, ditching, etc.
It is surprising with what facillity they
learn and with what cheerfulness they
obey. They understand how to turn the
clay to sliape, and body forth a pipe, or a
coffin. Mr. Stevens is kind to them,
but at the same time firm and positive.
They seem delighted in their new situa
tion ; and unanimously declare that they
have never been so kindly treated or so
well cared for.
Mr. Stevens is a man of much benevo
lence, and his treatment of these unfortu
nate fellows is iminently humane.
Yesterday one of them died. Medical
attention, w r hich he employs for that
purpose, was summoned, but with no
avail. He had the dead man shrouded
in a suit of his own clothes, placed in a
decent coffin, and honored with proper
buiral and funeral ceremonies. His fel
low prisoners stated they had never be
fore seen such respect paid one of their
dead.
Let the other lessees emulate the ex
ample of Mr. Stevens, and we shall hear
nothing more about “man's inhumanity
to man makes” many a convict “mourn.”
As to whether the enterprise will re
sult in a financial success for Mr. Ste
vens remains to be seen, but we will
say that that fortune which does not fa
vor a man of such untying energy as Mr.
Stevens must be extremely adverse.
Yours, Hardy Hood.

Strange —If a tallow candle be placed
in a gun and shot at a door, it will go
through without sustaining any injury; and
if a musket ball be fired into water, it
will not only rebound, but be flattened as
if fired against a solid substance. A mus
ket ball may be Hied through a pane of
glass making a hole the size of the ball,
without cracking the glass; if the glass is
suspended by a thread, it will make no
difference, and the thread will not even
vibrate. In the arctic regions when the
thermometer is below zero persons can
converse more than a mile distant. Dr.
Jamiesoy asserts that he heard every

miles. A mother has been distinctly heard

VINEGAR BITTERS
No Person can take these Ritters
according to directions, and remain long
unwell, provided their bones are not de
stroyed by mineral poison or other means,
and vital organs wasted beyond repair.
Grateful Thousands proclaim Tink-
gat. Bittehs the most wonderful Invigor-
nut that ever sustained the sinking system.
Bilious, Remittent, and Inter
mittent Fevers, which are so prevalent
in the valleys of onr great rivers through
out the United States, especially those of
the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois,
Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkansas, lied,
Colorado, Brazos, Rio-Grande, Pearl, Ala
bama. Mobile, Savannah, Roanoke, James,
and many others, with their vast tribu
taries, throughout our entire country dur
ing the Summer and Autumn, and remark
ably so during seasons of unusual heat and
dryness, are invariably accompanied by ex
tensive derangements of the stomach and
liver, and other abdominal viscera. In their
treatment, a purgative, exerting a powerful
influence upon these various organs, is
essentially necessary. There is no cathar
tic for tke'purpose equal to Dr. J. Walker's
Vineg.ur Bitteks, as they will speedily re
move the dark-colored viscid matter with
which the bowels are loaded, at the same
time stimulating the secretions of the
liver, and generally restoring the healthy
functions of the digestive organs.
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Head
ache,Pain in the Shoulders,Coughs,Tight
ness of the Chest, Dizziness, Sour Eructa
tions of the Stomach, Bad Taste in the
Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpitation of the
Heart, Inflammation of the Lungs, Pain
in the region of the Kidneys, and a hun
dred other painful symptoms, are the off
springs of Dyspepsia. One bottle will
prove a better guarantee of its merits than
a lengthy advertisement.
Scrofula, or King’s Evil, White
Swellings, Ulcers, Erysipelas, Swelled
Neck, Goitre, Scrofulous Inflammations,
Indolent Inflammations, Mercurial Affec
tions, Old Sores, Eruptions of the Skin,
Sore Eyes, etc., etc. In these, as in all
other constitutional Diseases, Walker's
Vinegar Bitters Lave shown their great
curative powers in the most obstinate and
intractable cases.
For Inflammatory and Chronic
Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Remittent
and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the
Blood, Liver, Kidneys, and Bladder, these
Bitters have no equal. Such Diseases are
caused by Vitiated Blood.
Mechanical Diseases.—Persons en
gaged in Paints and Minerals, such as
Plumbers, Type-setters, Gold-beaters, and
Miners, as they advance in life, are sub
ject to paralysis of the Bowels. To guard
against this, take a dose of Walker’s
Vinegar Betters occasionally.
For Skin Diseases, Erup’tions,Tetter,
Salt Rheum, Blotches, Spots, Pimples,
Pustules, Boils, Carbuncles, Ringworms,
Scald Head, Sore Eyes, Erysipelas, Itch,
Scurfs, Discolorations of the Skin, Humors
and Diseases of the Skin of whatever name
or nature, are literally dug up and carried
out of the system in a short time by the
use of these Bitters.
Pin, Tape, and oilier Worms, lik
ing in the system of so many thousands, are
-effectually destroyed and removed. No
system of medicine, no vermifuges, no
anthelminitics, will free the system from
worms like these Bitters.
For Female Complaints, hi young
or old, married or single, at the dawn of
womanhood or the turn of life, these Tonic
Bitters display so decided an influence
that improvement is soon perceptible.
Jaillldice.—In all cases of jaundice,
rest assured that your liver is not doing its
work. The only sensible treatment is to
promote the secretion of the bile and
favor its removal. For this purpose use
Vinegar Bitters.
Cleanse the \ itiated Blood when
ever you find its impurities bursting
through the skin in Pimples, Eruptions,
or Sores; cleanse it when you find it ob
structed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse
it when it is foui; your feelings will tell
you when. Keep the blood pure, and tho
health of the system will follow.
