It consists of equal parts by measure of—1. Laudanum and spirits of camphor; Tincture of rhubarb. Thirty drops on a lump of sugar will often check the. diarrhoea. But to prevent its return, care should always be taken to continue the medicine every four hours in diminish ing doses—25, 20, 15, 10, 0, when careful diet is all that will bo needed. ' In case the first dose docs not stay the diarrhtea, continue to give increasing doses—35, 40, 45, 50, at every movement of the bowels. Large doses will pro duce no injury while the diarrhrea lasts. When that is checked that is the time for caution. I have never seen a case of diarrhoea taken in season, which was not thus controlled, but some cases of advanced diarrhoea, and especially of relapse paid no heed whatever. As soon as this becomes apparent, I have always resorted to this ^course: Prepara a teacup of starch, boiled as for use in starching linen, and stift into it a teaspoonful of laudanum for an injection. Give one-third at ea :h movement of the bowels. In one desperate case, abandoned as hopeless by the physician, I could not stop the diarrficea until tho seventh injection, which contained nearly a teaspoon- lul of laudanum. The patient recovered and is in perfect health. At the same timfc I used prepared chalk in grain doses with a few drops of laudanum and camphor to each. But whatever course is pur sued, it must be followed up and the diarjhusa con trolled, or the patient is lost. 2. Mustard fo kit ices.—These should be applied to the pit of the stomach, and kept ti" the surface is well reddened. 3. The patient, however well he may fool, should rigidly observe perfect rest. To lie quietly on tho back is one-half the battle. In that position the enemy fires over you, but the moment you rise you i arc hit. ; When the attack conies in the form of diarrhoea, these i ft*. .• ... ! directions will enable every one to meet it successfully. f/rderS ft Iftrgp jurisdiction iu civil 4 - Dut when the attack is more violent, and there is hereto freed men alone : '*** p6rh ‘ ps ’ al8 °- livil iij'criminal eases, w Ircedmei; and white persons may , licretlfore denied to State courts, is j missionaries, Messrs.

The Commission met again yesterday morning, pur suant to adjournment. . The prisoner, through his connsel, addressed the Commission, respectfully asking to be informed if the Commission intends to force him to,close his de fence when tho witnesses who are now present are ex amined, or will be be allowed to continue his case until other witnesses, now absent, but who are regu- larly.subp«;naed shall have arrived. The Commission, after deliberating with closed doors, announced through tho Jndge Advocate that they had determined to proceed with the examination of such,witnesses for the defence as may be present, and to close the case when all available testimony is exhausted, the prisoner having already had fifty davs to .1,-cumulate his evidence, and every essential hav ing been rendered him by the Government. The defence then moved for a continuance of tiie case, owing to the absence of material witnesses. The motion was not granted, and the Commission was about to proceed with the trial when D. A. O'Byrne, Esq., counsel of the prisoner, presented a formal pro test against the authority of the Commission to pro ceed further with the trial. The document was a lengthy one, the argument being basod upon the proclamation oi President John son, declaring that the war has (‘eased, and upon the Constitution, whereby the right of trial by jury stands unimpaired, and is fully restored to Georgia. Tho de mand was therefore made that the case be turned over to the civil authorities of Sumter County, where the alleged offences were committed, or to the civil authorities of the United States for the District of Georgia. The protest was not entertained, and the Commis sion proceeded with the examination of witnesses for the defence. I T I O N Hotels. oF am MY OWN IMPORTATION. LIVE. OAK CLUB HOUSE!

It is difficult to say when a case has become hopeless. At a certain point the body of the patient begins to emit a peculiar odor, which I call the death odor; for when that, has become decided and uumistakeablo I have never known the patient to recover. I have often worked upon such cases for hours, with no permanent results. But the blue cojor, the cold extremities; tile deeply sunken eye, the van ishing pulse are no signs that the case is hopeless. Scorns of such cases in tho recent epidemic have re covered. In addition lo the second mixture, brandy, (a teaspoonful), every half hour. Bottles of hot water surrounding the patient, especially the extremities, sinapisms ami friction, will often, in an hour or two work wonders.

I was bo situated as U> know what the treatment of the prisoners by Duncan was. lie was generally very Lind. We considered him one of the best men we had over us. 1 never eaw Duncan strike, beat or kick any of the prisoners. I was ho situated as to have seen him if he was fn the habit of doing so; that is, my chance of seeing any thing of the kind was as good a« any man’s there ; was not with him ail the time. I was camped near the south gate when confined’inside the stockade. I never knew anything of a prisoner being knocked down, jumped upon and killed by Duncan at tho bread-wagon on or about the 15th of June, 1885. I Was not iu the habit of going to tho bread-wagon when it came into the stockade* I think I should have known of any maltreatment of prisoners near the south gate, as 1 was camped close uy. If it was the fact that a man was killed in the stockade it would have been immediately known all over tiie prison. We had a way of transmitting news of anything that transpired which was called tho “grapevine telegraph.” Duncan was not in the habit of issuing rations from the wagon insido the stockade. A man by the name of Sim llitchie issued rations at south side. His appearance wuh somewhat like Dun can’s ; if anything, he was a little larger man ; but looked very much like him. lUtchic was still issuing there when I went out of the prison. I did know a half-witted man in the stockade ; he was perfectly naked ; he wore no clothes at all. I used to see him in every part of the stockade; saw him during the month of June; alter 1 went outside 1 got a pass to go inside, and going to the hospital louud this man dying; stood and looked at him tnlhe did die; he appeared to be in a very miserable condi tion. 1 did not see Dnucan strike any prisoner with a policeman's club on or about the 15th of June; there were no policemen there at that time.

There were no policemen with’" clubs around tiie stockade in the month of June, 1884. 1 had charge of the cook-house while outside of the stockade; that is, I was “Yankee boss” there, having charge of the Yankee cooks. I never saw Duncan cheat prisoners out of their rations by sending less iu? aide the stockade than was issued to him. 1 think I should have known it if he had engaged in this prac tice; liwver knew of inn depriving tho prisoners of their rations to feed his hogs oil. After the rations came to tho cook-house as near all was sent into tho prisoners as possible; of courso there was some waste. When the cook-house was first opened wo had no pan there; the peas that first came were very duty; in boiling them, more oi less of tho bug-eaten peas would come to the top with the shucks; we had no way of pickling tUcra, and wo had to skim them off. After making application several times, Duncan finally obtained a fan, and there was as lit lie waste as possible by all hands. 1 know we tried well in cloudy as ii* clear weather.

This is something new under the sun, to which our minds cannot easily bo reconciled. Besides, as Republicans of the old, if not the black school, as Democrats we may be permitted to havo some repugnance for the use of a word which we shall prove to be of monarchical | origin. I Let us go back to the first republics of which we I have any history—to the republics of Greece. They ; had also their intestine dissensions. One party would seize power and drive its opponents iuto exile, or put them to death and eontis-rate .their property. We find them applying to each other the words, trai tor, enemy, parricide, &c.,* but robel, never. Be tween Greek and Greek there could be treason and enmity but no rebellion. Rebellion implies inferiority ou one side and superiority on the other; allegiance on one side, and sovereignty on tho other—which could uot be among the Greeks, as they were all equals and sovereigns. It was the game with Rome. In the whole lwstory of tho Roman Republics, the word rebel is not once applied to a Roman citizen. When thO| first secession of which we have any knowledge took j place among them, when the people—Lho plebiaus— , . , . , , .. .. .... ) seceded from the patricians, and retired to Mount i has just left us af.er committing | Arentine, they were not called rebels. When Coriola- " taking its way into Europe, anu j uus p U t himself at the head of the Yolsci and “’e the Atlantic before another suin- J m arched against Rome, he was uot outlawed as a rebel b3' the Roman Senate. They denounced him merely, as an enemy. When lie appeared before the walls of his native city, which he had doomed to destruction, when he had scornfully ejected the supplication of his ^atri- ciau friends, and tho submission of the repentant plebians who had offended him, when he had treated in the same contemptuous manner the majesty of the goods represented by the priests and by the Vestals, there came his mother. We have on record the speech which she addressed to him. She calls him Jiostts—enemy; she calls him parricide,but rebel, never.; and the Roman matrons, when lie died, went iuto mourning for a year. Iu the protracted strug gles between Marius and Sylla, so celebrated for their tables of reciprocal-proscription, the party who happened to represent the government for the time being,never dreamed that their opponents were rebels. Cicero exhausts against Catiline the vocabulary of .. j epithets, but omits the word rebel, which is not even personally investi- ] ,- ound in ally of j, i8milmy works . When Ca*sat- crossed the Rubicon, the Roman Seu- ate declared that there was not rebellion, but titninl- Lits ia urben—tumult. The fact is, that according to Roman ideas,a Roman could uot be a rebel. He could be guilty of seditio\ tumnltvs insnrrectio, but no re- beliiu. Romans were all equals. They do not owe ai- •legiancn to each other. There was no rebellion be tween Cassius aud Brutus on the oue side, and Mark G. K. HUGER. BENTLEY 0. HASELL General [Partners. New K. JESUP & CO..

The Gauls, the Spaniards, the Britons and other .conquered nations could bo rebellious against Rome, but not the Romans. All Romans thought that they were component parts of their government. That government could bo divided into hostile fragments, but it was not under stood iu those days how a fraction.of sovereignty could be rebellious*against the other fractions. We hear of rebellious sons, because of the natural alle giance claimed by a father, but wc never hear of rebellious brothers. The Italian republics of the Mediaeval ages were as sparing of tho word rebel as their illustrious predecessors. Well!: When tho Greeks could not be rebel^ against Greeks, Romans against Romans. Italians against Italians, we have precedents for saying that Americans pitted against Americans should not be so fond of stigmatizing their brothers as rebels. Of course.

The teams came every night after -M A C . the slops of the cook-house; part of it was carried to Duncan’s house. The buggy peas were not fit for the prisoners; would hardly make good hog feed. Dun can always appeared to be very careful of the rations of the prisoners. Duncan left*Andersonville the last of November, 1804; there were no prisoners there then. We considered Duncan one of tho best rebels wo had there. One kind act of his was to a man named Sands; that man had a very bad disease, and the rations were such food as he could not cat. Duu- can fed him withiood from his house for two mouths before he died. The rations were received at the cook house in wagons; the ration for a mao, as issued to cook-house, was lb. beef, )£ lb. peas, and a little salt about once a Yveek. There was loss of weight in the meat, in cooking it, 15 or 20 per cent. The salt ra tions was about G lbs. to 100 men once a week. Cross-examined by Judye Advocate.—I first saw Duncan about the middle of July. I was paroled by Captain Wirz and detailed to the bakery. I was in side the stockade every day while clerking for Brow ers, who issued the rations in the stockade; this Yvas in the last part of January, 18G5. I never was inside the stockade while Durban was there. I had charge of the men in the new cook house. Duucau did not havo charge of this cook house. I received my in structions from a man named John Stubbs in charge of the cook house. Duncan was at this cook hou; once or twice a week; don’t know whether he hail anything to do with it; he never gave me any orders. I used to see Duncan at the bakery every day; 1 Went there every day. I was not very often inside with the wagons. I could look from my quarters into the stockade aud see the man distributing the rations from the Yvagons. I did no,t know of any prisoners being beaten inside the stockade during the mouths of Juno, and July. 1 almost always weighed out the rations at the cook house. It is possible that prison er!* were beaten within the stockade without my know ing of it, though I stood a pretty good chance to hear of it; never heard of Duucun’s maltreating any body. Any occurrence of this kind was immediately made known throughout the prison. It was the general feeling among the prisoners that Duncan was the second best rebel there was over us ; a Lieutenant Ormon was very kind to us, but he had moro influ ence than Duncan, being a commissioned officer. I belonged-to the 37th Illinois, second brigade of Gen. TerryVdivision, Tenth Army Corps; was captured on the 16th of May, 1864, at Drury's Bluff, Va. The half-witted man died about tho last of July. This man was always naked; I don't know from what cause ; suppose because be was crazy. The man had no scars nor marks of violence on him when he died. The box which the meat was thrown into when cooked was built up against the side of the house. It had a trough and we placed a bucket under it to catch what grease and liquor drained out of the meat. This grease, if from beef, was put back iuto the kettles ; if of pork it was sent down to the bakery to grease paus with. Very often tliero was not enough grease saved for the use of the bakery on account of the carcity of meat ; have had to skim it off the kettles to semi to tho bakery. I never saw a colored man whipped by order of Duncan ; never knew Duncan to sell peas or other rations. The Commission then adjourned till ten o’clock this morning.
