Personal-
Major Brayton, Commandant of this Mili
tary Post, together with his lady, staff and
troops, arrived in this city on yesterday
morning, by the Savannah train.
Cerrcclion.
In the communication published on yes
terday, an error was made in the name of
one of the parties. It should have been
“Daniel McCarthy,” instead of the first
name signed to the article.
Prize Reading.
We learn that Messrs. Long and Corey,
and Superintendent Calvin attended, on
yesterday, the colored school under the
charge of Miss Murrick, and report that the
children who read for prizes displayed
measurable proficiency.
Mtice to Citizens.
Seethe special notice in another column
“to all holders of lots or lands” in the cor
poration. The health committee of Council
ire determined to execute the law and pre
serve the general health of the city—so far
is it is possible to do so. We are well satis
fied that they mean what they say in the
notice to which we are new calling attention.
“Bleckley’s Cited Cases.”
We are indebted to the author, Col. L. E.
Bleckley, late Reporter of the Supreme
Court of Georgia, for a Table of Cases in
the Georgia Reports, from No. 1 to No. 31,
inclusive, with the addition of cases cited
in the 34th and 35th volumes. We think,
from a hasty glance at the pamphlet, that
it is a valuahlo acquisition to the libraries
of the legal fraternity, and a great saving
of time and labor in getting up briefs
cases.
Runaway Horse.
Rev. J. K. Warner, Superintendent of
Mission Schools, and Mr. M. S. Whalan,
of the Freedmeu’s Bureau, starting out., on
yesterday, to visit the school examinations
now going on, were runaway with on Jack
son street, near the Bell Tower —the horse
making the circle round the Tower, and
| then dashing off down Greene street in
jumps and runs, first throwing Mr. Warner
“nt of the buggy, and then Mr. Whalan
followed suit before the horse ran against a
bee, which he shortly did, destroying some
portions o! the buggy and unharnessing
himself, except the bridle, completely, lie
*us soon and easily caught- We regret to
learn that Mr. Warner was severely hurt,
ai| d, it is thought, had oue of his wrists
dislocated. Mr. Whalan escaped without
being hurt, although thrown upon the pave
ment.
Ball at Ht rzclla.
We learn that some ol our young people
repaired, Thursday evening, to Berzclia,
ai|| l were there met by others from Thom
■>on and ether places up the Georgia Rnil
'wl, and had a general good time “tripping
die light fantastic too, 1 ’ and other pleasant
’•'‘joyraents—returning to the city on yester

The nimi Serf* wlck’i Semlnury.
The crowd of visitors at tha Misses.
Ssouw ice’s parlors, on Washington afreet,
Thursday evening, wore grateful to the
pupils and their teachers for the beautiful
entertainment gireu there. The entire
school, attired in white and decked with
flowers, yterformed their parts well, showing
a readiness and order that proved their train
ing. Their songs in concert, aud perform
ance on tho piano, were highly creditable,
and listened to with much attentiou by the
fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, and
(perhaps) lovers,who enjoyed a very pleasant
evening.
Every effoit of each pupil, parent, and
teacher, on this memorable occasion, will
be fruitful. The duty performed will cheer
the heart. Tho pleasure of that evening
will come to mind long hence, mid then
memory will not stand as in the Sailor Boy’s
Dream
“ sideways half covered with flowers
That secured every rose but secrotod its thorn,”
for no thorns were there—only the flowers.
The enviable reputation of this excellent
Seminary extends lar beyond our own city.
The accomplished principals uro surrounded
by skiiml assistants, affording to our people
superior facilities for obtaining for their
children educational and musical advantages
of a high order.
We desire to express, in earnest words,
our appreciation of this school, and our
grateful acknowledgment for the enjoyment
afforded by the beautiful entertainment ot
Thursday evening.

It. St. It. It ««1 way’s Pill®,
Are tho only purgative, alterative, and
cathartic medicine that secures a vegetable
substitute for mercury or calomel. They
enre with astonishing rapidity liver com
plaints, kidney diseases, irritation of the
bladder, piles, biliousness, jaundice, dys
pepsia, costiveness, ladies’ complaints, and
all diseases indicating the necessity of a
purgative medicine.
Aged people, subject to costiveness, or
paralysis of the bowels, are quickly cured
by these pills.
A gentleman, aged eighty years, who had
not enjoyed a natural disciiargo from the
bowels for nearly 40 years, and was always
compelled to resort to injections, was re
lieved by one dose; and by taking four
pills each night for otic month, was restored
to sound health and regularity.
These Pills purify the blood, remove all
obstructions from the bowels, liver, skin,
spleen, bladder, etc., and purge out nil
corrupt and acrimonious humors. A few
days’ use of these pills will make the skin
smooth, clear, pure, and healthy. They
increase the appetite and flesh.
Dose—For regulating the liver, stomach,
bowels, and promoting digestion, one pill at
night. For obstinate diseases and chronic
complaints, 4 to 6 every 24 hours.
Price, 25 cents per box. Sol i by drug
gists. Always ask tor Dr. Rad way’s Pills.

Congressional.
Washington, June 19. — Senate: Bill
introduced transferring control of Indians to
Freedmen’s Bureau.
Vote rejecting bill relieving exporters of
distilled rum, reconsidered and hill passed.
Pacific Railroad matters discussed all day.
Adjourned.
House. —Bill regulating carrying passen
gers by steam vessels passed without discus
sion.
Tho Conference Committee’s report on the
hill relieving political disabilities was defeat
ed by 78 to 55—not two-thirds. The Dem
ocrats, on account of the erasure of two
Democrats from the list, joining the Repub
licans who opposed pardon entirely. This
result produced much dissatisfaction,and the
Republicans appealed, that without this bill
Congressional reconstruction would be a
failure, and untold evils would result.
Broomnll, who had changed his vote for
the purpose, moved a reconsideration, which
prevailed, and the question comes up again.
Highly Important.
[From a jumbled telegram sent by the
Press agent at Atlanta, 19th instant, wo
gather the following:]
Guns were fired at the garrison, in respect
to the memory of Ex-President Buchanan,
commencing at sunrise ; General John B.
Gordon is out in a card declining the use of
his name for U.S. Senator; a large number
of persons from that section will go to New
York Convention ; twenty eight prisoners
from Columbus, arrested at the instance of
detectives from Washington city, for com
plicity in the assassination of Ashburn, are
in Atlanta, under guard ; crop prospects are
not flattering, on account of dry weather ;
and “Carey W. Styles’ new paper, the
Constitution, enjoys a large popularity” !
We would remind the intelligent Press
agent at Atlanta that we pay (or news.
Gordon’s card reached this city, by mail,
four hours before the same startling intelli
gence came by telegraph, and the same may
be said of the crops’ item. We arc pleased
to learn of the Constitution's popularity —if
we <lo have to pay for the information
(whether C. W. S. does or not.)
Washington Items.
Washington, June 19 —Tho Star an
nounces positively Secretary McCulloch's
resignation.
The defeat of the relief bill in the House
this evening created an intense flutter, and
very likely it will pass Monday, though tho
Democrats will vote solidly against it unless
Houston of Alabama, and Jones of Ten
nessee, are restored.
The Senate’s amendments to the bill con
tinuing the Freedmen’s Bureau was adopted,
and it goes to the President.
The Washington Express says that it is
reported, on good authority, t! at Chase lias
written a letter, to he read in the Democratic
Convention, placing himself squarely on any
platform the Convention may determine, hut
urges that negro suffrage be recognized, aud
universal amnesty demanded.
Private advices from Atlanta represent
the Columbus prisoners treated with incrcas*
ed rigor.
The House Judiciary Committee cotilom
plate bringing the matter before the House
on Monday.
Instructions from Gen. Grant.
New Orleans, June 19.—A telegram
from Gen- Grant is promulgated by Gen.
Buchanan, in the form of an order, for the
instruction and guidance of all concerned.
Grant approves Buchanan’s course, both
in regard to State and Municipal govern
ments, and says that civil officers elected
cannot be installed until the State is admit
ed ; that until then State Government is
provisional and under Buchanan’s control;
loaves the matter of the oaths to be taken
by the new officers entirely to Buchanan’s
judgment, suggesting, however, that the oath
prescribed by the new Constitution only
should be required. It is said that if the
latter suggestion is adopted, it will permit
many officers to qualify, who could not
otherwise do so.

Read the following letter from
Rev. 11. Telford, Missionary in China, now
visiting his home in Pennsylvania:
Washington, Pa., June2s,lßG6.
Messrs. Perry Davis & Son, Providence, R. 1.:
Dear Sirs—During a residence of some ten
years as a Missionary in Siam and China, I found
your vegetable Pain Killer a most valuable
remedy for that fearful scourge, the Cholera.
111 administering the mediciue, I found it moßt
effectual to give a teaspoonful of Pain Killer in a
gill of hot wrter sweetened with sugar; then,
after about fifteen minutes, begin to give a table
spoonful ot the same mixture every minute until
relief was obtained. Apply hot applications to
the extremities. Bathe the stomach with Pain
Killer, clear and rub the limbs briskly. Os those
who had the cholera, and took the medicine faith
fully in the way stated above, eight out of ten
recovered. Yours, truly,
li TELFORD.
It an attack with Diarrhoea, Dysentery, or
Cramp Colic, don't delay the use of the Pain
Killer. Sold by all medicine dealers. Price, 24
cents, 50 cents, and $1 per bottle.
Manhattan, Kansas, April 17,1866.
Gentlemen — * * * I want to gay a little
more about tho Pain Killer. I consider it a very
valuable medicine, and always keep it on hand
I have ti‘iveiled a good deal since I have been in
Kansas, and never without taking it with me.
In my practice I used it freely for the Asiatic
Cholera, in 1819, and with better success than auv
other mediciue ; I also used it here for cholera i'u
1855, with the same goad result.
Truly, yours, A. HUNTING, M. 1).
, , „ „ Swato, China.
Cholcia . * * I regret to say that the
cholera has prevailed here of late to a fearfu
extent. For the last three weeks, from ten to
fifty or sixty fatal cases each day has been re
ported. I should add that, the Pain Killer, sent
recently from the Mission House, has been used
with considerable success during this epidemic.
If taken in season is generally effectual in check
ing tiie disease.
Re v. CHARLES HARDINIG,
Sholapore, India.
[From the Portland Monthly.]
Summer Complaint and Dysentery,
Bowel complaints seem just now to be the
prevailing element, and aiiy medicine that is
everywhere acceptable, and that is reliable, is a
very desirable acquisition. From what we have
seen, heard, and experienced, we believe Davis'
Pain Killer is this desideratum. For* the best
method of using it, we quote from the directions:
“For common bowel complaints, give one tea
spoonlul iu a gill of new milk and molasses in
equal parts, stirred well together; lessen the dose
tor children, according to the age. If the pain be
severe, bathe the bowels and back with the medi
cine. This mode of treatment is good in cases of
the cholera morbns, sudden stoppages, etc. Re
peat the dose every hour.
“The quickest way 1 ever saw the dysentery
cured was by Liking one spoonful of the Pain
Killer in one gill ot milk and molasses stirred
well together and drank hot, at the same time
bathing the bowels freely with medicine, lajt
the dose be repeated every hour until the patient
is relieved.’’
It every person who has reason to fear this
disease would provide themselves with a bottle
of this medicine, and use as occasion required, we
believe a great amount of sutl'oriug and sickness
would be saved. jel2—2m
