ChMrlll Bathing Mark Twain, writing to the AUa from Odessa, Russia, Aug. 2*2d, says : If there is one thing that i> really cheerful in the world, it.is cheerfulness. I have noticed that whea a »an is right down cheerful, be is seldom unhappy for thp tiai* being. Such is the nature of man.J [Ntiw I have often thought t&t our stylo of bathing was rather reserved than otherwise, and lacked many elements of cheerfulness. But jrou cannot say that ot the Russian style. I watched a party of them at it this afternoon in the harbor, and it is really nice. The men and women, and the bovs and girls all go in together, along about noon, and the men don’t wear anv thing at all, the boys don’t, the little girls don’t, and the young women and the old women usually wear a single white thin garment with ruffles around the top of it and short sleeves fwhich I have forgotten the name of), but this would be n very good apology for a bathing dress, if it would only stay down. But it won’t do it. It will float up around their necks in the most scandulous way, and the water is clear, and yet they don’t seem to know enough to kick up the mud on the bottom. I never was so outraged in my life. At least a hun dred times in the seven hours I stayed there, l would just hava got up and gone away from there disgusted, if I had had any place to go to. Several times I had a mind to go anyhow. Why, those young ladies thought no more of turning somersaults, when I was not look ing, than nothing in the world. Incensed as I was, I was compelled to look, most of the time, during this exhibition, because it forced them to make a show of modesty, at least. Yet it wouldn’t. even have accom plished that, if they hadn’t been so fond of show naturally. Well, you can’t conceive of it. It was awful. But sometimes ray outraged feeliugs were crowded down by my fears for the safety ot the girls. They were so reckless. One splendid looking young woman went in with nothing on but a shawl, and she kept it wrapped around her so that I was afraid all the time that she would entangle her feet in its long fringes and drown herself. My solicitude became go unbearable at last that I went and signiftal to her that if she wanted to take off her shawl I would hold it for her. But she only kicked up her heels and dived out of sight. I just took her to be one of your high-flyer, mock modest kind, and left her to her fate. But she was the handsomest girl in the party, and it was a pity .|o see her endangering her -life in that 1 said to Brown: “It makes my heart bleed to look upon this unhallowed scene.” “We had better go, then,” he said. “If you stay here seven hours longer you might bleed to death.” ( So we went away. But it was a marvel lously cheerful bathing. A model Correspondent. A publisher of a paper made arrange ments with a man to furnish him "with news items from that locality. The result of the arrangement was as follows, and was rather startling to the editor: There is not much noos around here yit, but there is a littul. A man had his hed cut in a file last nite, the doctor says if ho don’t git well afore mornin, that he will hev to die, sartin, he leave one small wife and a family.

It was supported by a long speech. The bills and substitutes were referred to tfie Judiciary Committee.

The opinion, it is said, will be strongly adverse to the Constitutionality of tho Re construction Acts, but it is doubtful whether it will be promulgated before the bill forbidding it becomes a law.

PROFESSOR ROBERTS, LATE OF NEW Orleans and Memphis, the great Magnetic Healer, will treat all manner of Diseases and Afflictions, not incurable, at tho AUOUSTA HOTEL, Augusta, 6a., nntii Slav let, 1868. *T. Animal Magnetism we claim that the dis eased and deranged action of the nervous and vacnlar systems are restored to a perfect equilib rium much more readily than by any other means known to the medical world, either in the present or the past ages. ''Nature must do the healing,” is the saying of every sensible and honest physi cian, ana that “all we can do in case of sickness is to aid Nature.” This Prof. Roberts aims to do by the great science ,of Animal Magnetism, and that, too, without drngs! It is the only system of the medication that has God as its anthority and example, or that can be sustained by science or common sense. Consultation free. Letters to be answered mast he accompanied with a stamp. For testimonials see or send lor circnlar. Prof. Roberts treats successfully the following named diseases, together with many other forms of human maladies not herein specified, viz: All diseases of the Brain, Rheumatism, Nervous Debility, Neuralgia, Weak Spine, Curvature of the Spine, Inflamed Sore Eyes, Paralysis, Weak Eyes, Partial Blindness, Dropsical Tumors,Ulcers, Scrofula in its varied forms, Consumption, Dia betes, Weakness of the Limbs, Bronchitis, Loss of Voice, Palpitation of tile Heart, Diseases of the Liver, Kidneys, and Bowels, Dyspepsia, Falling of the Womb, Suppressed Menses. Catarrh, all kinds of Sexual Diseases, Impurities of the Blood, etc., etc. Paralysis and Deafness are the most uncertain of all diseases to cure, although patients afflicted even witli these terrible maladies will bo more or less benefilted, if not cured, by Magnetic Treatment. GREAT TRIUMPH OF ANIMAL MAGNET ISM IN AUGUSTA ! —“ OLD FOGYISM ” AND THE ENEMIES OF TRUTH GET A “REGULAR” NORTHWESTER. lr August*, 6a., March 12,1868. I hereby certify that I have been partially para lyzed for four years. Four months of that time I was not able to make a step, or even so much as move one of my toes on either foot, and was en tirely destitute of feeling in my legs. I was examined by forty eight Confederate Army Snrgeons, all pronouncing me incurable— having Curvature of the Spine, which produced paralysis. I commenced taking treatment of Pro fessor Roberts, Marcli 4th, 1868, and now, after taking nine treatments, by Animal Magnetism, I feel like a “new creature \" I can now stand up, and walk any desired distance, without crutches or canes, which was utterly impossible for more than four years before seeing Dr. Roberts. For reputation and responsibility, I refer those interested to Mr. W. A. Ramsey. Mr. Edward Rodgers, Mr. John M.-Clark. Mr. Nicholas Young blood, and Mr. John Houston, ail of Angnsta, 6a. My address is Edgefield Courthouse. S. C. [Signed] A. SHARPTON.Jn. Professor Roberts will heal the Biok at Augusta Hotel, until May Ist, 1868. Augusta, 6a., Feb. 29th, 1868. This is to certify that I have been treated by Prof. Roberts for a dropsical tumor in the left side, with which I have been afflicted for the last seven years, anS am confident that I am entirely cured, not having experienced any of the unpleasant symptoms which I did before the treatment, and tfiis by animal magnetism. MARTHA A. GORDON. I am cognizant ot all the facts contained in the above statement, the lady having been a member of my family for a number of years. ANDREW 6. LaTASTE. Augusta Hotei., Augusta, Ga. ) March 6th, 1868. ) This certifies that I have been a great snfterer with Rheumatism for five years, my left ankle being much swollen, very stiff and painful. I was treated twice only by Dr. Roberts, at the Augusta Hotel, February 18tli and 20th, 1868, and now have not one symptom of Rheumatism or pain in my body. All the medicine I had taken seemed to make me worse, and I never had any relief until I was treated magnetically. People may laugh; hnt I have no more rheumatic pains—that’s so. I work in the Angnsta Hotel. [Signed| NANCY MASON. Atlanta, Ga., Feb, 12,1868. I have been a hopeless invalid for the weary space of ten or twelve years, laboring under a combination of dreadful diseases which have long since been pronounced incurable. I had of lute grown rapidly worse, until three days since I was Drought to this city on a bed, being entirely unable to sit up, for the purpose of consulting the fitr famed Prof. Roberts. After the first treatment, whicii was only a few minutes, I was free of fttt pain and able to walk anywhere, and to-day I feel so well aud strong I can scarcely realize that I am the same being who was so feeble and sutler, lng so much three days since. I can never express my heartfelt gratitude to the man whose wonder ful skill lias thus relieved me of so much inexpres sible suffering. -May God bless the Doctor wherever he goes, is my humble prayer. [Signed] Mrs. J. H. NASH, Lovejoy’s Station, Georgia. Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 5,1868. To whom it may concern : This will certify that, for eight months past I liavo been afflicted with Neuralgia in the right side of the face, and most of the time suffered most excruciating pain, during which time I have songht relief in vain from the regular medical profession ; and I furilier certify that I was relieved the first time I was treated by Prof. Roberts, aud apparently perma nently cured after being treated the third time. I most confidently recommend him to all similarly afflicted. J. B. LANIER. Atlanta, Ga., March 7th, 1868. Dr. 11. U!., Roberts : —This is to certify that I have, for five years past, been afflicted with goitre. Physicians pronounced it incurable, and from them I obtained no relief, hut upon the con trary continued to grow worse, until treated Tiy you four times, by Animal Magnetism.in January and February, 1868, since which time it has almost disappeared, and I am entirely relieved from suf fering with it. I am very kindly, yonrs, forever, Sgnedl J. F. FUGII. Witness to tne above: Col. R. J. COWART. Atlanta, Ga., March 3d, 1868. This certifies that I have suffered exceedingly with a large tumor on the left side of my faco for twenty-five years. During this age of torture it has been removed twice by painful surgical opera tions, which only seemed to aggravate its growth. When Dr. Roberts came to Atlanta I took treat ment by Animal Magnetism, aud have been greatly benefitted hv him—in point of truth, more than by the entire twenty-seven “regular" doctors who have attended me. Under Jie treatment, tlie tumor softened aud re duced in size, the hearing in my left ear has been restored, and my left arm, which was almost use less, has been restored to its original strength. I can now sleep on my left side—a thing I could not do for many years before. I firmly believe if I conld continue the treatment the tumor would entirely disappear. Mrs. J. G. McLIN. Atlanta, Ga„ March 6th, 1868. _ Dr. R. R. Roberts' —Dear Sir: We, tlie under signed, would most respectfully solicit you to re turn to our city. We do this not only for tlie sake of your society and that of your excellent lady, bat in helmlf of suffering hnraauHy, Mr. Pugh, Mrs. McLin,and many, very many, others, whom you have relieved so much.
