Memphis, Tenn., September 17.
Hon. John F. W heaton. Mayor:
We arrived at oDe p. m. Comfortably
quartered at the Peabody Hotel. Have
reported to the Howard Association for
duty. Drs. Yonge and Duncan.
The Charleston Hews and Courier of yester
day contains the following, which gives an
idea of the condition of affairs in the stricken
city:
“A gentleman received a letter on Sunday
from one of the Charleston nurses in Mem
phis, from which we are permitted to make
the following extracts. The writer says,
under date of the 10th: ‘I am now in
charge of the Infirmary, 269}.» Main street;
placed in the position by the President of
the Howard Association, without any solici
tation on my part. I am doing my whole
duty, and no man who enters here shall lack
proper nursing. So far, thank God, I have
cured many, and yet the first corpse has to
be taken out. As soon as a patient arrives
I slap him right off into a red hot mustard
bath, rub him well from the knees down,
and give him a good dose of oil. Then 1
place iced cloths upon his head. As soon
as the oil takes effect I give him sage
tea, either hot or cold, and continue
the dose every two hours until
the fever abates, being careful
not to allow him to take over two table
spoonfuls at a time. After the third day I
give him a tablespoonful of brandy every
hoar until he becomes convalescent, and
then a tablespoonful of beef tea every hour.
This ends the crisis. * * * It is terrible
here. I never heard of such mortality in
proportion to the population.^ It makes the
stoutest falter. * * * Were it not for
l the noble Howard Association the city would
be wiped out. * * * I am in splendid
health, and my more than iron constitution
serves me well in this siege. The sick have
all they wish for. Cannot you procure some
watermelon seeds and send them to the
President of the How ards? We need them
badly.”
A postal card from the same person,
dated September 11, says: “Since I last
wrote I have been attacked with the fever.
* * * I am game and will recover. We
lost four patients to-day.”
The following letter was received from
Mrs. Silvey, the lady who had been reported
as sick:
“Memphis, September 12.
“My Dear Husband: I am all light again,
and am on duty at the Infirmary, where I
was sick. I have not heard a word of Mrs.
Doane. * * * I cannot teli you the
sights I have seen here; it is more than
human tongue can tell. * * * The time
will not be loug passing when, with the
blessing of God, I will see you again.”

Liver Remedy
BLOOD PURIFIER
Tonic and Cordial.
This is not a patent medicine, but is prepared
under the direction of Dr. M. W. Case, from his
favorite prescription, which in an extensive
practice of over twenty-seven years he has found
most effective in all cases of disordered liver or
impure blood. It is
ANTI-BILIOUS.
It acts directly upon the liver, restoring it
when diseased to its normal condition; and in
regulating the activity of this great gland every
other organ of the system is benefited. In Bipod
Diseases it has no equal as a purifier. It im
proves digestion, and assists nature to eliminate
all impurities from the system; and while it is
the cheapest medicine in the marketjit is also
superior to all known remedies. While it is
more effectual than Blue Mass, it is mild and
perfectly safe, containing nothing that can in the
slightest degree injure the system. It does not
sicken or give pain; neither does it weaken the
patient, nor leave the system constipated, as do
I most other medicinei^^MHMH

Narrow Escape from Ui-owning
Mr, Brennan, first mate of the British ship
ady Dufferjn, had a narrow escape from
drowning on Monday night. He had been
out visiting some friends in the city, and at
late hour returned to the ship, which is
lying at one of the lower wharves. Whilst
going on board the vessel he made a misstep
and slipped from the gang plank, falling
into the water. Through the assistance of
Mr. Williams, the second mate, and several
others, he was, after some difficulty, rescued.
We are informed that Mr. Brennan is the
third man who has fallen overboard from

Tl»e Union Prayer Meeting:.
As mentioned in the News of yesterday,
the union prayer meeting of the evening be
fore, having as its special object supplica
tion in behalf of the fever-stricken cities of
our land, was largely attended. While the
great body of the Roman Catholic Church
had been for days past giving this important
subject undivided attteution, and setting an
example well worthy of commendation, at
this gathering every Protestant denomina
tion in the city was represented by one or
more of the clergy and a portion of their con
gregations, and ever}’ pastor not positively
engaged elsewhere, was present.
A spirit of deep solemnity pervaded the
assembly. Men aud women, believing
in the efficacy of prayer, had come
together to offer one united petition
to the Divine Ruler and only .source
of help for their stricken fellow men.
With a quickened remembrance of theirown
night of sorrow' and gloom, so shortly past;
with a firm reliance upon, and an earnest
pleading of God’s promises, there w as but
one thought and purpose. The divinely
approved union of “faith and works”
appeared. Works had been faithful
ly cared for, as shown by the
thousands cheerfully contributed by
willing hands. Now', with the offering
upon the altar, Christian hearts turned with
strong faith to him whose it was to receive
the sacrifice and to grant the divine token
of acceptance.
And now the question comes home to
each praying heart. If prayer is the only
power to which the Almighty acknowledges
allegiance, does it not become incumbent
upon each who has access to a Throne of
Grace to put forth unceasing, importunate
prayer that this object, made dear by every
impulse of humanity, may be attained; not
for oue evening, but for many. Not Savan
nah alone, but every city, village and house
hold of our country where Christians seek
their God in prayer, let ceaseless petitions
arise to Heaven as one vast cloud of incense;
and He whose sure promise stands pledged
to those who ask, shall grant, answers of
peace, and cause joy and gladness to abound
where pestilence and gloom now hold un
disputed sway.

Tlae Concert To-Nig lit— The Yellow
Fever Fund.
This evening the Braham Musical Club,
colored, give an entertainment at Masonic
Temple for the benefit of the yellow fever
sufferers in the Southwest. The club have
been preparing for this occasion and antici
pate giving an entertainment that will far
eclipse their previous efforts, which, as w-ell
known, have been exceedingly creditable.
An excellent programme has been arranged
and judging from the reading, will prove
unusuali'y attractive. The singing, we are
assured, will be fine, and a feature that,
doubtless, will take well, is announced to
be a burlesque entitled “The Ocean House
at Tybee.” The club deserve commenda
tion for coming forward so promptly and
tendering their services for the further
ance of such a worthy object, and
6bould be gratified by the presence
of a large audience. A number of tickets
have been sold, and the Brahains would be
glad to see all holders present. A portion
of the hall has been reserved exclusively for
their white friends, whom they will be
gratified to see present in force. The Sa
vannah Volunteer Guards Band have volun
teered their services and will play previous
to the performance. The object is one
which we all desire to advance, and we
would therefore urge those who have not
procured tickets to do so at once.
Never has the cotton goods trade of the
world passed through an experience similar
to that of this year. Estimates of consump
tion made when it opened, left the supply of
raw material far short of the- needs of spin
ners ; and all through the year every au
thority has predicted a great scarcity, and
some almost a cotton famine before the sea
son closed. That these anticipations have
not been realized is now a matter of history
—slow trade, short hours, idle spindles iu
almost every country of the world, being in
brief the explanation.
The question of chief interest to-day is,
to what extent is this to be the experience
of the coming year ? So far as Europe is
concerned, we cannot sec any very encour
aging signs of a revival of the cotton goods
trade. We think it has been greatly over
done during past years, under an unusually
stimulated demand; and until the wants of
the world grow up to the present spinning
power, or we have another unnatural exhila
ration of its consuming capacity, we must
expect slow trade. We have not space here
to enlarge upon these subjects. On another
occasion we have fully explained the posi
tion, as we view it. It may be epitomized in
the simple statement that the spinning pow
er of the world in 1865 was about 2,000,000,-
000 lbs. (5,000,000 bales of 400 lbs. each),
and now it is over 3,000,000,000 lbs., or 7,-
500,000 bales of same weight. Nothing but
the world-wide speculation, fostered, first,
by the high prices of cotton; next, by
the inflation, delusion and fancied
wealth in the United States; next, by
our borrowing millions upon millions
from Europe and throwing them back
with lavish hand for productions at highly
remunerative prices; next, the general rise
in the value of commodities almost the
world over, and, finally, of wages—nothing
less than all these circumstances combined
could have produced such results as these
figures indicate.

Prompt Rolorm of Bodily Evils.
The prompt reform of those bodily evils, en
feebled digestion, incomplete assimilation, in
activity of the liver, kidneys and bladder, as
well as of the nervous symptoms which these
ailments are especially prone to beget, is al
ways accomplished by the use of Hostetter’i
Stomach Bitters, a medicine accredited by
physicians, pronounced pure by analysts, and
eminently wholesome and agreeable. Surely
such a restorative is preferable to unpalatable
and iudigesti< le mineral drugs and unsanc
tioned nostrums. The nation at large assur
edly thinks so, judging by the unprecedented
demand for the article from Maine to the
Pacific, a demand now supplemented by im
mense orders for it received from tropical
America, Mexico, the British and Spanish Colo
nial possessions, and elsewhere. Both at home
and abroad it is recognized as. a standard reme
dy and preventive, the decisiveness of its ef
fects recommending it everywhere.

['Whom credit was due. This statement was
based upon information deemed to be re-
of Montgomery aud Williamson streets, had I

. I expressly for the Southern climate. It is undeniable that the Aurora Beer will
retam its freshness after being tapped longer than any other beer sold in the Southern market
This Beer has been pronounced by connoisseurs to be the best that has ever been offered in
this country. The Beer is delivered at Savannah from refrigerating cars owned by, and ex
pressed direct from the Aurora Brewery, on the banks of the Ohio river.
As convincing evidence of the accuracy of these assertions, we have only to append the follow
ing statements from reliable merchants of several Southern cities who have had considerable
experience in the handling of the celebrated Aurora Beer:
I have been handling the Aurora Beer for four years, and consider it second to none in
America. J. J. HENSOR, Nashville. Tenn.
I have sold thirty thousand kegs of Gaff & Co.'s Aurora Beer in three years, and it has given
perfect satisfaction. J. F. DOLL, Vicksburg, Miss.
Messrs. Gaff & Co.'s Aurora Beer is the finest and best quality I ever met with in this market.
I have used beer from almost every brewery of any note in the United States, and have no hesi
tancy in saying the Aurora Beer gives the best satisfaction of anv.
ALPH. WALTZ, New Orleans.
We have handled the Aurora Beer since 1873. and now we can use no other beer in this market.
We have had shipments from Milwaukee, St. Louis and Cincinnati since, but no go. They all
prefer Aurora Beer, as it seems to stand shipping better than any other, ami Gaff A Co.'s
refrigerator cars have been a success in keeping the Beer as goi>d when arriving as when it left
the Brewery. We have about four hundred Germans, all of whom pronounce the Aurora to be
the best Beer ever in the market. J. M. VETTER Jc CO.. Chattanooga, Tenn.
Macon, Ga.. September 2. 1878.
Messrs. Wm. Bone Co., Savannah, Ga.: Dear Sirs—I have sold four thousand kegs of the
Aurora Beer within the last five months, and it has given universal satisfaction. It is given up
bv all who try it to be the best beer ever in this market, and better adapted to this climate, from
tfie fact that it holds its gas longer after being tapped than any other.
Respectfully,

We commend our eighth casks, or “ponies,” which are admirably suited for family use.

IT IS POOR POLICY
For any retail merchant to sell inferior
goods because he can make
more money on them.
Instead of trying to find the cheapest
that can be bought, he shonld always
select THE REST in the market.
We know of no business anywhere, in the
city or country, that would not sooner become
permanently established, and in the long run
pay better, by handling only fair and honest
goods. To be sure, custom may for a while
be allured by low prices into the purchase
of inferior and adulterated articles: many
even take up with short weight and other
swindling; but time rights all these
things, and nothing is more certain than that
HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY
MEN BO BUSINESS
TO MAKI MONEY!
The surest way to accomplish this ia to
huild up a permanent trade.
This cm it le siiccessfir Jans
if inferior pis are soli
It is only by keeping the best articles of their
kind, even If they do not pay the largest
immediate profit, that a permanent business
is built up. Keep the best soap, the best
starch, the best spices, the best baking powder,
and so on through the whole list. We have
known a grocer to lose a customer whose
trade was worth a hundred and fifty dollars
a year clear profit to him, just because he
would not supply a baking powder that was
demanded by the best trade.
SEA
FOAM
Will draw more trade to your Store
tlaiL any otler one tMfitt in
tlie Grocery Line.
It is a first-class article, will do all we
claim for it, and never fails
to work WELL.
It is a credit to any merchant’s stock, and is
one of the few good things he can confidently
recommend to every customer. It will sell
itself after one trial, for its great merits are
soon appreciated. And not only so, but one
lady using it will tell others of the wonderful
properties of Sea Foam, and where it can be
purchased, and so the tide of trade will
gradually but surely set toward the enterpris
ing grocer who keeps it in stock. Actually,
the ladies of Georgia where Sea Foam has
been introduced, are noted for making better
bread, biscuit, com cakes, and other cookery
than can be found anywhere else, and they
give Sea Foam the credit, and won’t use any
other baking preparation. And it is not to be
wondered at, either, for Sea Foam

MASSEY’S COTTON GIN.
I HN presenting anew to the planters the merits
of MASSEY'S EXCELSIOR GIN. we refer
with much satisfaction to the achievements of
the Gin during the past six years, and especially
during the cotton year just ending.
It has more than sustained all that the manu
facturer has claimed for it. Every pai t of the
Gin is guaranteed, together with the perfect
working of the whole. The testimony of those
who use them is, that they gin faster and clean
er. make a better sample and produce moie
lint to the seed than any other gin. It never
chokes, and consequently the roll is never
broken.
Send to us for a circular containing all par
ticulars. We sell at the manufacturer's price.
