The following communication

Congrcssninn, one who has seen (’apt.
Untilli in hi- seat at Washington fr
lay to day:
Mr. Editor—Can anything lie said
in fiivor of an excellent and worthy
itizen ot the Second District without
being construed as derogator

say something of the good qualilie
of your present llepresentative, lion.
Win. E. Smith.
Has Col. Smith done anythin
Congress that the people of his Ilia,
triet.disapprovc ?
Has Col. Sniitli failed to do w hat
the people of his District wanted him
to do?
If these questions ran be answer
in the negative, anil I think they <■:
then Col. Smith i- a good Uepre-en-
ative and should not he changed,
know that Col. Smith i- faithful t<
the discharge of his <11110'-. and a
true to the interest of hi- people a
any member IScorgia has In Congre—
and I will say that the Georgia dele
ition is the equal of that from an;
tale. Col. Smilli does not attempt
o make the forensic display that
some do, hut he is attentive ami vigi
lent—all that is necessary. Thi
tiling of “spread eagle” speech nink
ill Congress is only done for home
effect, and never accomplished any
good when made—frequently dor
more harm than good to the cause «
the seetion for which made. Col
Smith, however, is competent ami
can make a speech on any subject hr
undertakes. lie has one qualifies
tion to make a good Ilcprescntativi
that but few public men have—tlii-i
the nerve to act from conclusions of
his own judgment under all circuni
stances. I have only to refer to hi
vote against the electoral bill to sub-
sukstantiatc this. There stood Smitl
alone in the Georgia Delegation, with
a large majority on his own party
against him, .-bowing hi- people that
he was still willing to stand iq
the one leg left him from the defence
of tlie “Lost Cause” anil contend for
what he thinks is rigid.

cuihark in the onerous avocation of
ruling. He imparted a fresh iuipc-
- to funning (ns his neighbors w ill
attest) and soon won his way to the
front rank as one of the most success
ful planters in Southwest Georgia.—
His first year's experience in planting
gave him considerable reputation, lie
making 18 hales to the mule; and

The cotton crop is nearly all open,

KciioiiH from the fever stricken
ities of tlie West are still lieart-rentl-
injf. We copy the following press
lispatclt from only onejof the cities
which will give our readers some
idea of the terrible scourge:
Memphis, September‘S—The condi
tion of the city to-day beggars de-
Tiplioti. While the list of cases re
ported is only about sixty, the death
ate has aiiioiiuted to eighty-si v, only
wo of which were from other cause’s
than fever. ISodies were discovered
in out of the way places which have
the. appearance of having been dead
several days. One |»eciiliurity mani
fested among the sick is a desire to se
clude themselves, while among the
poor there is unreasonable fear of be
ing sent lo tin; hospital.
Among the new cases to-dav are
I.ev.tJeorge Harris, (lean of St Ma
ry** Episcopal (-athedral ; Lev. i). C.
I'arsons, rector ol St Marys, and lit*.
S. II. ISrown, and L. Angler, ofMen-
kiu llros. Mr. A. K. Hodges is re
ported dying. Among the few con
valescents are Ed Worsham, L’liiefof
Police. At by is reported convalescing
Or Oowcll, of Oalvestoii, is here <lo-
ing good service. Four physicians
from i Ttarlesloit, S. <*., arrived to
day. E. S. .JaftiLoii, correspondent of
the St. Louis Journal, was conveyed
to the hospital to-day, sick with lever.
Father William Walsh, of SI. Pat
rick’s < liiin li, sends forth the follow
ing: **l appeal to all (.-atholic Socie
ties for aid. Three Priests atone re
main—all others are dead or sick.—
Three hundred lives were saved at
the Father Mathew Lump. Arrange
ments are being made to provide for
the orphans.*’
The following is from the colored
preachers* Aid Society *
"To the Colored People of the 1'nited
States, especially of tlie North:
‘•Our people art* suffering, living,
destitute. For Heaven’s sake relieve
its all you can, by sending us means,
Wc arc not able to .tury our dead, or
nurse and feed the sick and destitute.
Moil of us have no employment, as
all bitsiucns is suspended. Semi us

Tlie Stepping Stone to Health.
The acquisition of vital energy is
the stepping stone to health. When
the system lacks vitality the various
organs Ihtg in their duty, become
chronically irregular, ami disease is
eventually instituted. To prevent
this unhappy state of things, tin; de
bilitated system should be built up
by tlie list; of that inimitable tonic,
Hostetlers Stomach Hitters, which in
vigorates the digestive organs, and
insures the thorough eon version of
food into blood of a nourishing qual
ity, from whence every muscle, ami
liber acquire unwonted supplies of
vigor, ami the whole system expo-
rienees the beneficial effect. Appe
tite returns, tin; system is refreshed
by healthful slumber, the nerves
'row strong and calm, the despon-
leiicy begotten of chronic indigestion
ami an uncertain slate of health dis
appears, and that sallow appearance
ot the skin peculiar to habitual in
valids, ami persons deficient- in vital
energy, is replaeed l»v a more becom
ing tinge.
WilhotVs Tonic is not a panacea—
is not a cure for everything, hut is a
cut Iml icon for malarious diseases, and
day by day adds fresh laurels to its
crown of glorious success. Engorged
Livers ami Spleens, along the shady
hanks of our lakes and rivers, are n>-
stored lo their healthy and normal
secretions. Health ami vigor follow
its use, and LTtills have taken their
departure from every hotiseholu
where WilhotVs Anti-Periodic is kept
and taken. Hon t fail to try it. WTiee-

KnglLdi Female Bitters
Is tlio great female regulator ami
tonic of the present day, ami one held
in high esteem by the thousands who
have been cured by its use. It is pre
pare*! expressly for tin? cure of fe
male complaints and irregularities
tliatafllict old or young females. All
ladies, married or single, who are
troubled with headache, uterine com
plaints, leiicoiTluea, pains in the side
and hack; who have become nervous,
pale, feeble and prostrated, have only
one bottle to use, to he convinced of
its intrinsic value. The price lias been
reduced to one dollar, ami etui he hail
at any drug store, (-an he used at all
times and under all eireuinstances.
