Mr. Artemua Ward. This gentlemen, who prefers still to retain tbe pseudonym under which he baa become famous, made his first ap pearance in London as a lecturer last evening! and his success was only limited by the very circumscribed ac commodation of "the Egyptian Hall. We.do not remember any auieriainiueut within the-past fu* year* *UiW> has. at the very outset proved so decided a “hit," and we can only hope that Mr. Ward’s voice—wtfcfe, last evening, at Um« mJnfuUy, allow him to transfer his lecture and panorama to a hall oapaUs of admit ting the much larger assemblages which will, beyond a ehalowol doubt, bs glad to hear him. The is a sketch descriptive of life in the Mor mon States, an\l of incidents in the journey thither and bac4c. It is ilVus trated by a panorama, which, as Mr. Ward's programme truthfully asserts, “is rather worse than panoramas usually are," and accompanied by a selection of piano-forte music, performed by an in visible player, who, according to his employer, receives “£lO a night and washing.’’ We can very well understand how the artist who paiuted one of these scenes was, on a certain occasion, unanimously called before the curtain to receive the chairs which the audience threw at his head ; but, luckily, the charm of the entertainment does not depend on the panorama. In tbe lecture ot last even ing, where no tricks ot spelling could shelter waut of wit, Mr. Ward showed himself a geuuine humorist, and fsund not a little diiiiculty in proceeding at all with his remarks through the uproarious laughter of his audience. Especially was this the case with the introduction, which was one continued string of dry jokes, odd say ings, and little bits of Mr. Ward’s pe culiar humor. It needed only half a dozen words to “set the house in a roar,” and thereafter the difficulty was to keep them quiet. Iu those portions, however, of his lecture specially de voted to a description of the Mormons, Mr. Ward for the time being talks seri ously, and gives us bona fde statements which are very trustworthy, and, we rieve to say it, somewhat dull. Mr. Ward’s efforts, however, to continue serious, are futile; and we speedily find him introducing one or other of those remarks which, uttered with a peculiar dryness, first tickle a few people here and there, and then awake the laughter of the entire room. Mr. Ward’s manner of recital adds not a little to the pun gency of his jokes. He assumes an almost Lord Dundrearyish unconscious ness of his own fun ; and it is only oc. casionally that some particularly “ good thing" provokes a slight twiukle of his eye. The entertainment, as a whole, is really excellent; but any commenda tion of ours must be superfluous when - we look at the following testimonials, which Mr. Ward himself has published : “ Totnes, October 20, 1866. “Mr. Autemus Ward : u My Dear Sir :—My wife was dan gerously unwell for over sixteen years. She was so weak that she couldn’t lift a teaspoon to her mouth. But, iu a fortu nate moment, she commenced reading one of your lectures. She got better at once. She gained strength so rapidly that she lifted the cottage piano quite a distance from the floor, and then tipped Hoover onto her mother-in-law, with whom she had some trouble. We like your lec tures very much. Please send me a bar rel of them. If you should require any more recommendations, you can get any number of them in this place at two shillings each, the price I charge for this one, and I trust you may be ever happy. “I am, sir, years truly, and so is my wife. R. Springers.” An American correspondent of a dis tinguishod journal in Yorkshire thus speaks of Mr. Ward’s power as an ora tor : “It was a grand scene; Mr. Artemua Ward's standing ou the platform talking; many of the audienoe sleeping tranquilly in their seats; others leaving the room and not returning ; others crying like a child at some of the jokes —all formed a most impressive scene, and showed the powers of this great orator. And when he announced that he should never lec ture in that town again, the applause was absolutely deafening." South Carolina. —Tha Legislature of South Carolina has elected the fol 1 »wing State Officers : General Ellison Capers, Secretary of State. Commissioners of Equity—Ab beville, William H. Parker; Lexington, H. A. Meetze; Marlboro, C. P. Town send ; Pickens, K. A. Thompson; Horry, R. FT. Sessions ; Newberry, Silas Johnston ; Clarendon, D. W. Guttino ; Fairfield, H. A. Gaillard. Inform atson Wanted.—Private W. C. Williams, Hilliard's Legion, C. 8. army, was left sick at Crab Orchard, on Bragg's retreat from Kentucky. He was at the house of George James when last heard from. Any information of his fate will be gratefully received by his distressed mother. Address Mrs. Jane D. Mooro, Greenville,*Mcrriwether county, Ga. —Lexington Observer. THE DAILY PRESS. VOL. 11.

Hew York Examiner, says: Every mother and housekeeper must often act as a fanaiN physician in tV many ill floMM'iMid acefdewts that ooeur amoDg chil dren and servants. For many of these cases, f have usedt)avi*’ Pain Killer, and consider il an indUpensable article in the medicine box. In diarrhoea, it has beep used and offeeted cures. For cuts and bruises, it is invaluaUf. The Editor of the Christian Advocate, 5t is areal pleasure to us to speak favorably of this, article, knowq almost universally to be a and safe remedy for burns and other pains of the body. It is valuable not oaly for colds in the winter, but for various summer complaints, and should be in every family* A. P. Miller, Editor of Messenger, Glens Falls, N. Y., says : There is no medioine at the present day I value so highly as Perry Davis' Vegetable Pain Killer. I have used it in my family for years; in every instauce it has proved a sovereign remedy. I tested its qualities to-day on a severe burn, and found it all that oould be desired. Mr. John Jackson, of the Calais Adver tiser, writes: I know it to be all it is recommended, having used it in my family six or seven years. Tbe Salem Observer says i No article of medicine ever attained to such unbounded popularity and extensive diffusion. It has penetrated to overy part, even the most remote, of the known world, bearin’g with it its healing influences more potent than those of the spices of “Araby the blessed.” We are informed by our principal druggists, that they sell more of this article for exportation than of auy or all others, and that the demand is constanty increasing. The Cincinnati Nonpareil, Nov. 14, 1849, says : Some of our most prominent citizens and business men strongly recommend it to the public as an article of great merit and virtue, and that they never knew any medicine to become so deservedly popular in so short a time. From Clergymen. Rev. J. C. Boomer says : I have used Perry Davis’ Pain Killer with great success in cases of cholera infantum, common bowel complaint, bronchitas, coughs, colds, etc., and would cheerfully recommend it as a valuable family medicine. Rev. J. G. Stearns, says: I consider it the best remedy I ever knew for dyspepsia. Rev. Edward X. Fuller says : I have witnessed the beneficial effects of your Pain Killer in cases of dysentery and cholera morbus, within a few months past, and would cheerfully recommend its use to such as may be suffering from similar dis eases, as a safe and effectual remedy. Rev. A. Webster, Editor of the Christian Era , writes: I used your Pain Killer for many years in my family with much satisfaction. oc2B—2m Snuff & Tobacco. “ GUERRILLA CLUB.’.’ This popular brand, together with our other Celebrated Brands, the “HAKMONIZER,” AND THE “BIRD’S EYE,” OF SMOKING TOBACCO May be had at BLAIR, SMITH & CO.’S, 298 Broad Street, or at NELSON & McILWATNE’S Tobacco Factory, Marbury street, oc9 —6m Near Augusta Factory.
