Except also where the debt or contract is set up by way of defence to any matter ot which the court has any jurisdiction, and that the said debt is more than any debt duo by the defendant to the plaintiff, of which the court shall deny jurisdic tion, except, also, where the debt is for real properly sold, and not one third or more of the purchase money has been paid, and the suit is in the name of the vendor, and Ihe said property exists in ihe handi of the debtor, who refuses to deliver it back to the vendor, and where it has been fraudulently disposed of by the debtor to avoid judg ment, and except all debts dne to charita ble institutions, institutions of learning, mechanics, and laborers.

And in all cases when the defendant or any one inter ested in the event of the suit will make a plea, supported by his affidavit, that he has reason to believe that the obligation or evidence of indebtedness upon which the suit is predicated, or some part thereof, has been given or used for the illegal purpose aforesaid, the burden of proof shall lie upon the plaintiff to satisfy the court and jury that the bond, deed, note, bill or other evi dence of indebtedness upon which said suit is brought is, or are not, nor is any suit thereof founded upon, or in any way con nected with, any such illegal contract, and has not been used in aid of the rebellion; and the date of such bond, deed, note, bill, or other evidence of indebtedness shall not he evidence that it has or has not, sioce its date, been issued, transferred, or used in aid of the rebellion.

WE BEG LEAVE TO CALL TUE ATTEN TION of the publio to thia long tosted and unrivalled FAMILY MEDICINE. The PAIN KILLER D a purely vegetablo compound ; and while it is a most efficient Rem edy for Pain, it is a perfectly safe medioine, even in the most unskillful hands, for SUMMER OOMPPAINT, or any other form of Bowel Disease in children or adults. It is an almost certain oure, and has, without doubt, been more successful in curing tho various kinds of CHOLERA than any other known remedy, or even tho most skillful physician. In India, Africa and China, where this dreadful disease is ever more or less prevalent, the PAIN KILLER is considered hy the natives, as well as European residents in those climates, A SURE REMEDY. Asa Tonic for tho Stomach, it i.« unrivallod. A few doses will relieve severe case? of INDIGESTION, j and it is ofton a perfect euro for DYSPEPSIA in its most aggravated forms.

The effect of tho Pain Killer upou the patient, when taken iutcrnally in cases of Colds, Cough, Bowel Complaints,' Cholera, Dysentery, and other affections of tho system, has beon truly wonderful, and has won for it a name among the medical preparations that can never be forgotten.

Read the following testimonials: At Home, near Marietta, Ga., Oct 16, 1867. A. J. Roberts # Cos , Atlanta, Ga.: Gentlemen—l am well pleased with the result of the use of the “ Double Refined PondreUe ” on my crops. I tried it on both corn and cotton, and am satisfied wherever it was applied the yield was more than double what it would have been without it. I regret exceedingly my nbt using it more extensively the present year, but will try to make up my loss by purchasing a .larger quantity next spring. I regard it as the cheapest, most reliable, and easiest managed fertilizer with in my knowledge, and cheerfully recommend it (as I have tried it the fanners of this section, and particularly to those planting cotton, from the fact of its causing it to mature from ten days to two weeks earlier than it would vvithou the use of the Pond ret te. I also used it on my garden, and found it of much benefit to all kinds of plants. Very respectfully, etc., G. 8. OGLESBY. Extract from a letter received from Professor Martin, of Hampden, Sidney College, Virginia, dated July Ist. 1867. Tho Double Refined Poudrette is operating like a charm on my Crop, and attracting universal attention from all beholders. I am already satisfied that it is the ctieapeet and surest renovator of our worn-out lands. High Shoals, Ga., October 4,1867. James It. Dky, Esq.: Sir—-The Double Refined Poudrette I bought lor two other parties iu connection with myself— one of them used it. on cotton and corn, and thinks it auswered finely ; tho other put. it on cotton, on very poor ground, and thinks it doubled his crop. I used it on corn. It answered finely, and was thought ny the hand that cultivated tne crop to be fully equal to Rhode’s Super Phosphate. 1 also used it on about an acre of cotton , and lam clearly of opinion that it is the best and cheapest fertilizer in use, and I expect to order several tons this winter. Yours, very respectfully, ISAAC POWELL. Ellaville, Schley Cos., Ga., Oct. 4, 1867. The Double Refined Poudrette purchased of yon last Spring, I think, increased my crop of cotton 150 pounds per acre ; put it upon worn out pine land, i t the rate of 200 pounds per acre, drilled in with cotton seed. Yours, etc., 8. MONTGOMERY. Salisbury", N C., Aug. JO, 1867 James R I)ky, Esq.: Dear Sir—l can safely sav that your Double Refined Poudrette is far superior to any fertilizer for Cotton ; for I have given it a fair trial this season. Yours, JEHU FOSTER, Jr. Savannah, Ga Sept. '2o, 1867. James U ijey, ICsq., Pres’ t.: Dear Sir—l used the Double Refined Poudrette boughtfDf you last Spring on Corn 1 think it. increased the yield one half. I consider ii au excellent manure.

Yours, very respectfully, HENRY C. DAVIS. Rocky Mount. Edgecombe Cos., N. C., ) November 13, 1866. $ James R. I)ky Esq.: Sir—ln teply to your inquiry of the results of our experience in the use of yourimproved Pond rette, purchased of you for thia year’s COTTON CROP, we would beg leave to say that the pies ent season has been one quite unfavorable to the action of all fertilizers Several kinds of manures icerc used by vs, with the exception of your Poudrette , with little or no efiect to the crop WHERE THE POUDRETTE WAS USED IT GAVE US NEAR HALF A BALE MORE PER ACRE, AND CAUSED THE COTTON TO OPEN MUCH EARLIER, and we would therefore recommend the same as a concentrated manure for the growth of Cotton, as well as improvement to the soil.
