""T Tb* Burxixo or Colombia.—ln a Columbia) special to the Charleston Omrier, under date of November 2u, the following paragraph occurs: The Committee appointed at a meat, ing of the oltixena of Columbia, held •oral time since, for the purpose of col lecting* testimony in relation to the burning of the city, made a voluminous rejart today r through their Chairman, Chancellor Carroll. The report embraces letter* (rout over fifty of the most re spectable cititens of this city,- all con firming the fact that Generals Hampton and Beauregard forbade the burning, but that Sherman approved and sanc tioned it. Their statement is confirmed by the admissions of numerous Federal officers in conversation with citizens of this place. Gtx. Joseph \V heeler. —ln addition to Admiral Semmes, Gen. Joseph Wheeler, well known as a cavalry offi cer and beloved son of our own Augusta, has been elected Professor of Natural Science, in the Louisiana State Semi nary. There are now in attendance upon this institution, over one hundred and fifty students, and more are expect ed. Beside the regular course of studv, it has been decided to permit the student to choose his own studies, to tit him for any busiuess in life. Precocious. —An archin, leading a small dog along the streets the other day, was accosted by a gentleman as follows: “Well, my son, what is your dog’s name ?” “fiain’t got any name yet.’’ “Well, why don’t you name him ? Give him a good name—call him Andy Johnson.” “I don’t like to do that—’twould be disrespectful to the President.” “Well, then, name him Beast Butler.” “I wouldn’t do that, neither, for that would be disrespectful to the dog.” “Young man, do you believe in a future state ?” “In course I duz; and what’s more, I intend to enter it as soon as Betsy gets her things ready.” “Go to, young man—go to.” “Go two? If it wasn't for the law agin bigamy, whip me if I wouldn’t go a dozen. But who supposed, deacon, that a man of your age would give such advice to a young man just starting in life?” How Mindful !—lt is understood that Commodore Vanderbilt, and others of Morrissey’s personal friends, urge him, now that he has satisfied his am bition by securing an election, to re sign. Disputing.—ls thou continuest to take delight in idle argumentations, thou mayst be qualified to combat with the sophist, but will never know how to live with men.— Sicrates. Hon. Janus B. Campbell has been* •'eeted from South Carolina to the United States Senate, by a large major ity, on a joint vote of both Houses of the Legislature. No Bragging.—Mr. A. Hctt says when you meet with professional Glaziers, you will find that most of them can do more or less bragging. For instance, each will say that he can do more than another. Mr. Hett says that he has put in at Mr. Goodrich’s Sash Factory as many as fourteen hun dred lights in ten hoars, with a little boy as an assistant. Every and any one who has glazing to be done—and done well and quickly—send for him at once. Any one doubting his ability to put in as many lights in the time above mentioned, can get such a bet as they may wish. Give him a call at 117 Reynolds street, between Jackson and Campbell. n025-12t —We are glad to learn that the Ros well Manufacturing Company is again under way. Gen. A. J. Hansell, of Ma rietta, is President of the Company. The Roswell mills were in days past among the best in the State, if not the best. Its woolen goods were of a pure quality, and much songht after. The presiding officers will not be backward in main taing the former high position of the mills, and will add still to their charac ter. —Milledgeville Recorder. Wendell Philips says that he is “ wed ded to principle.” He must be much such a husband as Brigham Young, who, it is said, doesn’t see some of his wives once a year. —A small barn in Bethel, Me., be longing to Pinckney Burnham, was destroyed by fire last week. The report goes that a little fellow, six years old. was trying to drive the ‘‘old cow” out, but she would not budge.

Opinions of the Press, Clergy, Etc. V will make a few short exttmMs from the many Testimonial* tee hat e received from time ty time, mnsolicited. From Editors. The New York Examiner, says: Every mother and housekeeper must often act ah a family physician in the many ill. nesse* and aeei«ievits tfeafroeeer ameeg #hfl4 dren audoervacts. For many of these ea*es, T have used Davis'Tain Killer, and consider it an indispensable article in the medicine box. In diarrhoea, it has been used and effected cures. For outs and bruises, it is invaluable. The Editor of the Christian Advocate, says : It Is areal pleasure to us to speak favoiably of this article, known almost universally to be a good and safe remedy for burns and other pains of the body. It is valuable npt only for colds in the winter, but for various summer complaints, and should be ii» every family. A. IX Miller, Editor of Messeuaer, Glens Falls, N. Y., says : There is no medicine 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 instance it has proved a sovereign remedy. I tested it's qualities* to-day on a snrure burn, and found it all that Could be desired. Mr. John Jaokson, of the Calais Adver tiser, writes r , I know it to be all it is recommended, having used it in my family six or'seven years. The Salem Observer says ; No article of medicine ever attained to such unbounded popularity and extensive diffusion. It has penetrated to every part, even the most remote, of the known world, bearing with it its healing influences more potent than those of the spices of “Araby the blessed.” We are iuformed by our principal druggists, that they sell more of this article for exportation than of any or all others, and that the demand isconstanty increasing. The Cincinnati Nonpareil, Nov. 14, 1849, says : Seme 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 remedy I ever knew for dyspepsia. Rev. Edward X. Fuller says : I have witnessed tho 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 have used your Pain Killer for many years in my family with much satisfaction. oc2B—2m Snuff & Tobacco. “GUERRILLA CLUB.’ 7 THIS POPULAR BRAND, TOGETHER with our other Celebrated Brands, tho “HA K MON 1Z ER,” AND TIIK “BIRD’S EYE," OF SMOKING TOBACCO May be had at BLAIR, SMITH A CO.’S, 29S Broad Street, or at NELSON <fc MoILWATNE'S Tobacco Factory, Marbury street, oc9—6m Near Augusta Factory.
