BeheUlaf. Switzerland (till preserve* the oofitom of beheading hv the eword criminela con* detuned to death. An execution took place in thia manner at Mondon, in tho Canton of Vaad, on the 10th of last month. Au immense concourse of people was present, estimated by some to number as maoy as 12,000. The condemned man was seated in a chair, with his eyes bandaged, and his hands tied behind bis hack. An assistant seized his hair, the principal executioner raised his sword, which was short and broad, and weighed about five pounds; a sort of whistling sound was heard, and the head fell. The description of the whole scene, as given in the Swiss papers, reads like a chapter out of Scott's Anne of Gel erstein. lot ports. The country is working into a better condition, financially, in many ways. Our imports arc much less now than cither one or two years ago. So we are spending less, and saving more. The imports at New York, for the past week and the past month, compare, as follows, with the corresponding periods of the two previous years: 1567. 186S. Dry Goods $3,152,844 $1,321,865 General merchandize... 1,050,116 2,625,709 Total for week $4,207,900 $3,947,624 Previously reported 14,955,517 9,557,989 Sinoe Jan. Ist $19,163,477 $13,505,613 So there is twelve millions in gold less to be sent abroad than in 1800, and six millions less than last year. Irltli Landlord*. It is a mark of returning sense on the part of Englaud, that so many of her public men are ono by one coming to look squarely at the yielding up by landlords of the right of ejection as the first and most important step in securing the quiet of Irlnnd. The lust notable speech made was by Sir John Gray, M. P., at Kilkenny, in which the orator cleverly cited the very acts by which the present landlords hold the land (which were acts of confiscation made " for the peace of the country, and for the security of the commonweath of the realm") as precedents for changing the present mode of proprietorship. He held that if for the objects named it was right to effect such an entire change of owner ship without compensation, it is much more lawful and proper to say now to Irish landlords, “Give a fee-farm lease or sell.” Political tyranny is indeed the only possible object to be gained by retaining the power of ejection when the rent is promptly paid ; and the world is getting too wide-awake for a continnance of that sort of thing. Street Railroads. Street railroads are commanding atten. tion and enlisting favor in Paris, but they are not permitted to spoil the streets through which they run, for all other uses, as they are in some of our cities. The companies are compelled to lay down a flat rail, with a projection in the middle which keeps the grooved wheel of the car in place. Carriages are thus not incommoded in the least by the railroad. Here a rail road track makes it almost impossible to drive a carriage through the street in which it is laid. The rail is a deep groove into which it is extricated only at the risk of breaking the wheel or the axle. Railroad companies are not allowed in Paris to mo nopolize the public streets, or to crowd passengers into their cars like sheep, or to do a great many other things which they do constantly in this free and independent country. About Visitiug; Carda. An important feature has of late been introduced into the use of those articles. The beau monde, of course, make calls by merely sending around cards. That every one knows, and lienee there was some sense in the order made by somebody to deliver cards on New Year's day for such of the gentry as were too lazy to go in person. The point is this: When a card is left at your house it is a call in mere form—an empty expression of a still more empty politeness—but if it lie really meant for a call, and not as a dead letter, you will find one corner turned down. The lady visitor, when she carriage at the door of a “dear” friend—one whose kind regards she means to cherish—is careful, as she puts her card into the hands of the flunky to deliver at the door, to turn down the corner aforesaid. This is as much' as to say, •• I love you dearly, and I am dying to Bee you, as you will perceive by looking at the inch of pasteboard and having made this expressive utterance, the carriage drives on. Doctrine of the Real Presence. The Archbishop of Canterbury, in ac knowledging an address upon the subject of ritualism, lately forwarded to him by Viscount Sydney, M. P., the Lord-Lieuten ant of Kent, and several magistrates and other gentlemen, remarked: That the doctrine of the real presence, in one way or another, is the doctrine of the Church of England it would be impossible to deny, for her language clearly attests this. Rut it is a spiritual presence—a presence to be realize i by faith; not a corporal presence of Christ’s natural body and blood, Christ’s body being eaten at tho Holy Supper only after a heavenly and spiritual manner. It is, nevertheless, a real presence in the sense of its being effectual for all those intents and purposes for which Christ’s body was broken and his blood shed, just as tho sun, though its bodily presence be in the heavens, is pres c?v°n of light and heat for which it was created. But, in order to guard against any super stitious abuse of this truth, our Church warns us that “no adoration should be offered either unto the sacramental bread and wine, or to any corporal presence of Christ s natural body and blood.” And as to any local presence, except in tho heart ot the believer, she pronounces nothing. It behooves, therefore, every clergyman to avoid in his teaching all expressions which rn. J( T on< * , t , he , teaching and usage of tho Church of England, t<* the neglect of that cautious wisdom which guided our He formers in the construction of our formu {anes. The Co-Operative Msvcment. Within the last twelve months coAperu tlon, as applied to building among work, ingrnen, has proved eminently successful in New York. Already two societies have completed their required number of 500 each, and progressing favorably. Shares, covering nearly $3,000,000, have been taken up, and several appropriations disposed of. There is also a building-lot society pro posing to accommodate 1,000 members, constituting an acceptable adjunct to the other societies. Gas. A new and economical method of manu facturing gas from bitumen has been in courso of trial at the Royal Arsenal Gas works, Woolwich. Tho gas thus produced showed on the disc, from a single burner, an equal illuminating power to fifteen standard spermaceti candles, the bitumen giving off its gas with much greater rapidity than the ooals. The bitumen was also tested for fuel and heating purposes, and was pronounced to be a safe resource for investment of capital incaso of a failure, as anticipated, of the Scotch and West of England coal mines.

Conley, Com. for sth Congressional Dist. February 10, 1868. ts [Advertisement.] Chronic Catarrh, A Clergyman in a neighboring village had suffered for many years, from an obstinate catarrh, which had resisted all attempts for a cure. Tho obstruction and discharge from the nose was constant, destroying both taste and smell; and at times even interfering from the change of voice, with his public ministrations. Almost in des pair, he commenced the use of Humph reys Catarrh Specific No. 19, and after the use of only a few pills—one’every night— found himself improved; and ere he had used an entire hox. could consider himself entirely well. ts [Advertisement.] Country merchants, In making their purchases, will do well to call first on Mrs. Pughe, 190 Broad street, who is selling out her entire stock cheap. ts [Advertisement.] Goods at a Sacrifice.

AUGUSTA MARKETS. Wednesday, February 12, P. M. FINANCIAL.—GoId, 142 paid by brokers, who sell at 145. COTTON—The market opened at 19c, with fair sales. At noon, advices from abroad causod a declino of 4 cent, after which nothing was done. GRAlN.—Quotations for Wheat, Corn, and Oats, remain at yesterday’s figures. BACON in good demand—prices unchanged. Sxlcgrapljic Nans. The Conventions. GEORGIA. Atlanta, February 12—Aaron Al peoria Bradley, negro, was, by a unani mous vote, expelled to-day for gross insults offered the Convention. The 3d section of the Franchise Com mittee's report, which proposed to disfran chise until January Ist, 1869, all who can uot register under the Sherman bill, was defeated by the adoption of Mr. Miller's substitute) This disfranchises only those convicted of treason, embezzlement of public funds, malfeasance in office, crime punishable by law with imprisonment in the penitentiary, and of bribing idiots and insane. The vote was—yeas, 114; nays, 16—four fifths of the negroes voting in the affirmative. FLORIDA. Tallahassee, February 12.—Twenty nine delegates present in the Convention to-day. A resolution asking Congress to repeal the cotton tax was adopted. The Scrgeant-at-Arms was directed to notify the minority members that the Con vention was in regular session, and that their presence was required. Only three minority members have taken their seats since the return of the majority. It is understood that General Meade leaves the subject of eligibility to the Con vention. A resolution was adopted calling for an investigation of the conduct of a colored delegate, charged with making an inccn diary speech at a mass meeting on the Sth, in which he encouraged riotous proceed ings against three delegates who had gone with the absent majority. Convention went into slfcrct session to consider the matter. ' Governor Walker and Judge Randall were called on as witnesses to the pro ceedings. One of the minority say they intend meeting on Saturday next, and resume pursuant to their adjournment; but it is not considered likely. NORTH CAROLINA. Raleigh, February 12.—General Canby and staff, who arrived in the city on yes* terday, visited the Convention to-day. In Committee of the Whole, Convention discussed the question of abolishing all distinctions between the courts of law and equity. Decided in favor, and so instructed the Committee. The Convention bus now been in session a month, at a cost to the people of over $40,000. No article of the Constitution has been perfected, and only one or two liavo bad two readings. Governor Worth's counsel, on yesterday, recommended the appointment of Col. C. A. Cilley, of Caldwell, late of the U. 8. army, to fill the vacancy on tho Superior Court bench occasioned by the resignation of Judge Fowle. VIRGINIA. Richmond, Feb. 12.—Ketrsnshraent was the order of the day. In the Convention to-day a resolution was adopted discharging all the committee clerks. A resolution was adopted dispensing with stenographic reports of debates, after Saturday—it hav ing beon shown to have cost over four thou, sand dollars to date. E. M. Schofield, a brother of the Com manding General, has been appointed assessor of the city. Congressional. Washington, Feb. 12.—Senate.—Sher man introduced a bill declaring Alabama restored to the right of representation. Referred to the J udiciary Committee. The Senate discussed the refusal of railroads coming into tho District giving equal rights to negroes in cars. Without further business, Senate went into executive session. House. —After unimportant business, the rights of American citizens abroad was resumed. Banks refused all amendments and sub stitutes, and moved the previous question, which was not seconded, when several substitutes and amendments rushed in, and the bill was postponed. Interesting from Washington. Washington, Feb. 12.—The allegation that the Chiefs of the Freedmen’s Bureau favor such social and civil relations be tween the two races as approximates to amalgamation, is seriously discussed by moderate Republicans, who have been favorable to the Bureau’s continuance. Tennessee railroads hold several mil lion dollars of the claims that the South ern Railroad Committee propose repu diating. The Tennessee delegation are making an effort to except the Tennessee roads from the proposed legislation. Gen. McClellan is mentioned in connec tion with St. James’ Mission. The Whiskey Metre Commission is in session—Prof. Henry, President.) The following is Sherman’s bill, intro trocluced to-day, and referred to the Judi ciary Committee: “Whereas, The people of the State of Alabama have in strict compliance with the Fifth Section of the act of March 2d, 1867, entitled ‘An Act to provide for the more efficient government of the rebel States,' formed a Constitution of govern ment in conformity with the Constitution of the United States, framed by a Conven tion of delegates in compliance with said act; and “Whereas, Said Constitution has been ratified by a majority of the qualified per sons voting on the question of ratification, and said Constitution contains all the guar antees required by said act; therefore, “Be it enacted and declareu ny idd Senate and House of Representatives, etc, that the State of Alabama is entitled to repre sentation in Congress, and Senators and Representatives shall he admitted there from, on their taking the oath prescribed by law.” The noon dispatches, regarding Gens. Grant and Hancock's correspondence, is substantially correct. Further details arc inaccessible. General Grant and Stanton had a pro longed consultation to-day. The Arkansas Constitution enfranchises females and negroes, and makes them competent as jurors; disfranchises (hose disfranchised by the Reconstruction laws, and those voting against the Constitution. Grant and Hancock. Washington, February 13.—The corres pondent of the Baltimore Sun, who is also an oflicer in the White House, telegraphs the following: “General Grant has ordered General Han cock to set aside the order reorganizing the New Orleans City Council. To this General Hancock tabes exception, and telegraphs General Grant, that unless the latter revokes his order, he (Hancock) must ask to be relieved from the command of the Fifth Military District.” Cable Telegrams.

PERRY 9AViS’ VEGETABLE PAIN KILLEfi. \\J E BEG leave to call the atten- V V TION of tho public to this long tested and unrivalled FAMILY MEDICINE. The PAIN KILLER is a purely vegetable compound ; and while it is a most efficient Rem edy for Pain, it is a perfectly safe medicine, even in tho most unskillful hands, for SUMMER F'QMPPAINT, or any other form of Bowel Disease in children or adults. It is an almost certain cure, aud has, without doubt, been more successful in curing the various kinds of CHOLERA than any other known retnody, or oven the most skillful physician. In India, Africa and China, where this dreadful disease is ever more or less prevalent, the PAIN KILLER is considered by the natives, as well as European residents in those climates, A SURE REMEDY. Asa Tonic fur tho Stomach, it is unrivalled. A few doses will relieve severe cases of INDIGESTION, and it is ofton a perfect euro for DYSPEPSIA in its most aggravated forms. Its tonic and stimulating properties, arousing the system to vigorous action, render it a most effectual cure for COLDS AND COUGHS, when used according to directions. For external application, it is unsurpassed by any medical preparation known. RHEUMATISM and Neuralgic Affections are quickly relieved and of*en cured by it. Any soreness in the Muscles or Joints can be relieved by its applica tion. It cures instantly tho most violent TOOTHACHE. It should always be kept near at band, to bo used in eases of severe BURNS OR SCALDS. If applied immediately, according to directions, it will give instant relief, and prevent blistering. It is peculiarly adapted to the wants of SEAMEN, and persons making sea voyages, and no vessel should sail without a supply of it. Ono captain writes us: "I have made several voyages—often with emigrants—and though I keep a good medicioe chest, and have several times had a good deal oi sickness on board, I have found the Fain Killer so efficient in ali cases as to entirely preclude the use of all other medicines.” One positive proof of its efficacy is, that the sales have constantly increased, and wholly upon Us own merits. The effect of the Pain Killer upon the patient, when taken internally in cases of Colds, Cough, Bowel Complaints, Cholera, Dysentery, and other affeotions of the system, has been truly wonderful, and has won for it a name among the (nodical preparations that can never be forgotten. Its success in re moving Pain, as an external remedy, in eases of Turns, Bruises, Sores, Sprains, Cuts, Sting of Insects, and other causes of suffering, has so cured for it such a host of testimony, as an almost infallible remedy, that it will be handod down tu posterity as one ol tho greatest medical d’seoveries of the nineteenth century. The magical effects of the L*aia Killer, when taken or used according to directions, are certain. You have only to be sure that you buy the genuine article and adhere to the directions in its use, and you will admit its wonderful medi cinal properties. The genuine Perry Davis’ Pain Killer is now put up in panncl bottles with the words Davis Vegetable Pain Killer blown in tho glass ; and with two steel engraved labels on each bottle— one an excellent likeness of Perry Davis, the original inventor of the medicine, the other a steel engraved noto of hand—none others can bo relied upon as genuine. T e Pain Killer is sold by Druggists and Groce s.
