While undergoing this discipline, chance threw me under the same roof and choice into the same bed, with (ieorge McDuffie. He devoured every hook and newsoaper with greediness that lie couid lay his hands on. As he could read these only at night, and as I could not separate myself from him in his leisure hours—as he seemed to regard it a privilege and relish to have a. boon companion to imbibe knowledge with him,and as he seemed to think, and perhaps did think, that I was as greedy of learning as he was—lie al io the bench in 1S22; was a candidate for Congress, with the certainty ot election, in 1S24, when 1 lost my first born, as dear to me as Absalom to David.— This loss turned my thoughts from earth to heaven—not so much lo heav en’s re unions—and I determined to seek it, but in a way of my own, with out the help of churches. 1 look down my name tor Congres when in utter ignorance of the fact that the world made itself, they bowed tlown together in worship and adora tion of their supposed God, address ing him in the hearing of these terri fied sufferers, under the name of Fath er, as a kink, and merciful, and sin pardoning God. It was a very ingen ious and pardonable hit of priestcraft,” was it not? in them to tell these help less creatures that there was a world ofelernal bliss beyond the grave which could be reached without any effort of body or limb, that they all m.ight hope for, till they ceased to breathe; and that there was a heaven-born Media tor between God and man who would lead them thither, if they would with contrite heart and unwavering faith put their trust in Him.' I have mentioned the loss of my first child. It occurred wbile 1 was living with mv wife’s mother, and her sec- ond husband. A more affectionate husband, a kinder father and step fath er never lived— a tnorA blameless character I never saw. He was a Christian. I was an infiidel. On the day nr day after my child was buried, his wile died. What was my loss enm- pared with his. My grief was actual ly dangerously severe. For four or five days alter the death of my son ii seemed as if my head would rend a- sunder with pain, and I said to my physician, “Doctor, if you do not do something for me I shall be a madman in a few days.” “Time,” said he, “judge, is the only physician for your diseased.” But there was a physician. The great Physician—who and did deal with my disease, long before time could have done it.

I ain re solved that 1 will seek religion, and I will seek it just in the way those who know most about it, tell me to seek it. I announced my resolution to mv wife,and then announced my resolution to her step-father, and told him that thence forward I would share family prayer with him. Tears of joy now filled his eyres, and my tears of grief ceased to flow. I commenced studying the scrip tures in earnest, praying God if they* really were true that I might be con vinced of their truth. . I had studied them not more ihan a fortnight, before I began to find in them some yvonder- ful evidences of their divine origin, yvhi< h I wondered the world had nev er discovered before, and which I af terwards learned were from two to the United States, and represented a care or two in the Supreme Court.

It is in sufficient quantities to be deleterious to ihe human sys tem. The I earned professor continued at length to slate the poisonous effects of the ingredients contained in these liq uors, and submitted the following scientific analysis : Prof. Siiiiman s Analysis.

Stanton. . Small cask iron bound, ten gallons, March 16, 1870, G. S. C.” I rind the sample to be a ‘spurious or imitation port wine. It is overloaded with sugar and coloring matter, and made deleterious and poisonous by the addition of lead, ulutn and sulphuric acid, besides various coloring aud as tringent drugs. The weight, owing lo these fabrics, is made considerably over that ot pure water, viz, 1013, water being 1000, notwithstanding its alcoholic strength. This imitation of port wine contains over 25 per cent ol ahsolubie alcohol by weight, or over 25 per cent by vol ume or measure. Over 10 per cent ot its weight is sugar or molasses. It is decidedly acid to taste,owing lo the presence of sulphuric acid or oil of vitroil, of which it contains about one hundred grains to the gallon, partly combined as alum, partly free. It contains lead, in the form of ox ide had, in poisonous; quantities, 'this lead was probably added as [sugai o! lead for sweetness and astreugenc}’, and has by i(5 decomposition furnished oxide of lead. It is found in the clear filtered liquor, and in greater quantity in the turbid matter suspended therein and which the liberation removes, but in both forms will find its way into the stomach of dlinkers aud do its w-ork. It is hard to find a viler nr more pernicious falsificalin of a wine or liq uor than this sample. Even its color ing matter is false ; its acidity astrin gency, alcohol strength .and saccarine and extractive matters are all false, and as so far they can be, deleterious or poisonous, or froth. Fusil Oil Whisky. Second Sample (No. 4 J H. K. Stanton. Second sample, received March 17th 1870. of Sam’l K. Tillinghast, one pint bottle marked “No. 4, II. C. Stan ton, painted cask, iron hoops te*'ed March 16, 1S70, G. S. C.” This article was evidently com pounded in imitation of Whisky. Be side alcohol and water, l find it lo con tain lead, iron, sulphuric acid, fussil oil, a bitter, astringent principle, and sugar, besides some extractive matters. It contains forty per cent, ol its weight of alocohol, equal to not eighty three per rent, of proof spirits. It contains lead in poisonous quantity as oxide of lead. Every common sized dram of it carries into the stomach of the drill ker enough of this subtle poison toil duce, when otten repealed, all the well known symptoms of lead poisoning. Fusil oil has been added in imitation of corn whisky or “old Bourbon.” Fu sil oil is a deleterious substance. Turpentine Gin. Thirt[ Sample H. Palmer, (No.3) Third sample received March 17ih of Sam’l K Tillinghast, one pint hot tie marked “No.3, H. Rainier, 'wood- colored ten-gallon cask.” “March 16th, G. S. C.” - This liquor has obviously been man ifitciured in imitation of gm. Besides dcohol and water, it contains lead, sulphuric acid, oil of juniper, oil of lur- peutine, 3"gar etc. The alcoholic strength, as determined by distillation gives 3S per cent of ablute alcohol by- weight, equal to 79 per ceut of proof spirits, or il is 3L P e r cent below proof. It contains oxide of lead in poison- >us quantity. Every ordinary dram of lire fiqoof holds lead enough in soln- a stinging sensation. It is present in ihesecood anil third samples in small quantities ; in the first sample in large quantity. There can be no question that in any quantity sulphuric acid must be considered a deleterious substance. Lead, which is present in all these samples, is oue of the most subtle of all metalic poisons. Il accumulates by small successive doses, gaining power by each new edition. It is well known that the frequently repeated introduction ot even very minute quantities of any of ihe prepar ations of lead into the system may, after a lime, introduce serious symp toms, such as loss of appetite, great thirst, a metalic taste in the mouth, parched tongue and throat, dull wild anxious countenance, vellow, dry skin, more or less severe abdominal gripings and a blue line along the line of thu guins. These symptoms are frequently followed by sharp pains in the extrem ities, muscular emaciations and paral ysis. 1 have ventured to -add these re marks upon the symptoms of lead poisoning, because I believe they are nol so generally known ns they should be, and they appear in this connection with die manufacture and sale of pois onous liquors to hold up a mirror, re flecting the frightful image of all the horrors which the wrelchee victims of such dram drinking are sure lo suffer. I have the lionor to remain your obe dient servant. [l. s. ] B. bILLIMAN, Slate Chemist. Strange Freaks of a Maniac—A Thrilling Scent. Jacksonville, 111., April 14.— On yesterday a thrilling scene < ccur- red atjhe insane asylum. A woman who has been in the asylum lor sever al years eccaped from her ward, and went through the hails and up the stair way that leads out npon ihe roof of the building. She wandered around upon the roof of ihe building until she came to the edge of the cornice. Al ter looking dawn for some tune, she swung herself over die edge of the cor nice try her hands, and swinging there she could just touch with her toes the cap above ihe filth-story, which was just below her. Having gotten a foot hold thereon, see let go tier hands and strange to say, preserved her balance and stood upon the cap, which is about twelve inches wide. While standing there she was discovered in her peril ous situation.* Immediately several men went upon the roof ami let down a rope, arid tried to persuade her to fasten it oround her. She would take hold of the rope, then laugh at diem but refused to use it. Meanwhile beds were brought out and placed on the ground five stories below her, and in breathless suspense all who were ou die ground awaiting her fall. Noth ing daunted, aflcr remaining on the window cap for nearly a half hour, all of a sudden she grabbed the rope held in the hands of the men above, amt jumped off. They let the rope run through their hands, and she held on until, when within about thirty feet of the ground, she let go and fell upon the beds unhurt. During all this time there was the most thrilling suspese loallth? beholders, and glorious re lief at her escape from such peril. A Boston Post reporter has inter viewed a son of Brigham Young. Young Young is in favor of the Paeiffie railroad ; is of opinion that our peo ple have never reach the venith in dress, and that beauty unadorned is sufficient : says die principal supply of Mormons comes from England Scot land, Denmark, Norway and Sweden; thinks all will he well if the Mormons are not over-ridden, and that the gov ernment w ill never reach polygamy by legislation, as the Saints would rise eu masse on the first sign of any non sense; says that lire moral condition of Utah is excellent; that an indecent word is a thing unknown upon die streets of Salt Lake City ; that “we” number 200,U00 souls ; that die elders intend lo slump every State, from Maine to Texas ; that more females than males become converts toMor. monism and that il is thought “rn s- sionaries” will be sent to Massachusetts to convert die 30,000 women there who have no chance to marry. On dit, that there is a plan on foot to endeavor to induce the Central Geor gia Railroad to unite with the Savan- noh and Charleston Railroad in a short line of sixt y-six mites, from “Millen,” on the Central to “Union Crossing,” on the Savannah Road, with the view of creating a diversion of the South western passenger travel, now going North by upper lines, to this great seaboard route. The distances are as follows: From M aeon, Georgia, via Millen, Union Crossing, Charleston, Florence and Wilmington, to Weldon, is 60S miles, while from Macon via Augusta Columbia and Charlotte, to Weldon is 758 miles—the new line having an advantage of 150 miles or eight hoursein lime.—Charleston Coruier. If you let trouoie sit upon your soul like a hen upon her nest, you may expect the hatching of a larger brood.
