FROM OUR
OF YESTERDAY.
\ Picture ok Life Among the English
Took.—The London Review tells* this sad
story:
\ poor woman drowned herself in the
Twines last week, as the coroner’s jury
l.itind “while in a state of unsound mind
through distress." Her husbaud had for
six , no nths been unable to make more than
hix shillings ft week, oul of which he had to
pay is. 3.1. a week rent, Is. 3d. lor the loan
ota borrow to curry on his trade of “gen
dealer," and to support a wife nud four
children with the remainder. The wife,
who was suckling her youngest ebild all
tlita time, did her best to contribute to their
ie«ourcus. She made slop shirts at a penny
a ehirt, and for the better sort of shirts she
wed to get 1L1., l|d., and even so much as
•_>,]. But to earn even this pittance she had
tii tiiid her own needles and thread. For
v.tuh these poor creatures, who bore the
higuest character for industry and good con-
duet, would go without tasting meat; they
lived on bread—and dripping, when they
cjiiM get it. When the father had no work
they lived ou nothing ; and the daughter
says that her mother used otleil to say to
lu r, “OU my, Polly, ain’t it dreadful ; we
have got nothing again to eat to-day.’’ These
po.-.r people never applied to the workhouse.
They thought of doing so, but refrained in
tin* hope, as the husband said to his wife,
“that perhaps thero will be better luck an
other tl-iy.
Mark Twain on Gen. Grant’s Reception.
Mark Twain attended one of the Grant re
ceptions in Washington. The toilettes of
the ladies struck him. He says :
At Grant’s reception the other Dight the
most fashionably dressed lady was Mrs. G.
C. She wore a pink satin dress, plain in
trout, but with a good deal of rak3 to it—to
tlio train I mean; it was said to be two or
three yards long. One could see it creeping
along the floor some time after the woman
was gone. Mrs. G. wore also a white bodice,
ru: bias, wrtu Pompadour sleeves, flouuced
with ruches; low neck, with the inside hand
kerchief not visible; white kid gloves. She
hid ou a pearl necklace; which glinted lone
ly high up in that barren waste ot neck and
blroulders. Her Lair was frizzled into a
tangled chapparal, forward of her ears; afi
it was drawn t; aether, and compactly bound
and plaited into a stump like a pony’s tail,
sad lurtherniorc was canted upward at a
shaky angle, and ingeniously supported by a
re.i velvet ciUpper, whose forward extremity
was tunde fa-it with a half hitch around a
hair piu ou her poop deck, which means, of
course, the top of her head, if you do not
understand fashionable technicalities. Her
whole top-hammer was neat and becoming.
She had a beautiful complexion when she
first came, but it faded out by degrees in the
luost unaccountable way. However, it was
not lost for good. I found the most ©f it on
iuy shoulder afterwards. (I had teen
standing by the door when she had been
squeezing in and out with the throng.)
Tuere were o‘hcr fashionable ladies present,
of course, but I only took notes of one as a
specimen.
Pope Comb Again.—Gen. ^John Pope has
been heard oi since his departure from the
realrh'«$f Georgik. HeTs flguring as4 Rad
ical politician in Michigan, and, as usual,
engaged in his favorite amusement of blus
ter and falsehood. He informs the Repub
lican State Central Committee of Michigan
that “ physical fear is the only thing by
which the Southern people are influenced,’’
and that “ the moral sense has departed
from the great pojrticm ©f them/.’ Trie Bal
timore Gazette calls this the “ latest display
of puppy-dogism ” and thus pays'ita respects
to our quondam satrap :
‘These are accusations at which, consid
ering the source from which they emauate,
the South c m afford to smile. Gen. Pope’s
own *moral sense’ was held in very proper,
though iow estimation in that section long
before the war, when as a Lieutenant in Fort
Pulaski, he was himself made, by an out
raged citizen of Savannah, to: experience a
sensation of- ‘physical tear.’ Hia sense of
truth was demonstrated by his war bulletins,
wherein he narrated Ibc pertoruiance of Fal-
siaflian feats, and his common sense was
guaged by the country wheu he announced
that his headquarters were in the saddle, and
that Hues of retreat were things about which
Msjor General Pope did not trouble hiiu-
seli. The idea that a man whom General
Franklin and others aver they would not
believe on oath, should be testifying to the
want of a ‘moral sense’ in the South, is
about as absurd as would be homilies by Mr.
Stanton on the sixth commandment, by Gen.
Ranks on the seventh, by Gen. Butler ou the
eighth, or by Judge Holt on the ninth."
MR JOHNSON AND THU RADICALS,
Never was a party so bewildered as the
Radicals are, or more perplexed as to the
means of escape from the false .position in
which they have been caught with' such
adroit audacity. They beat the air with a
wild lury, they fume frightfully, and in all
their attempts to be terrible they mutter and
mumble with imbecile persistency, impeach
ment, impeachment, impeachment—as if
that word, so fearful to themselves, must De
equally fearful to all others. It is their one
weapon, and they dare not use it. In fact,
iu lane of the President’s bold playing, the
Republican loaders find themselves reduced
to the necessity of considering what course
they may choose with least harm to them
selves, conscious that however they may
determine, and whatever step tney take,
their acts must inevitably result in an ad
vantage to him whom they would ruiH.
Generals with gallant armies are some
times pushed into positions for whose diffi
culties even victory has no solution—posi
tions in which the battle gained or the bat
tle lest are alike in value ; in which the fight
is not the hopeful, glorious struggle to win,
but only the depressing effort to escape.
Audit is in such a position that the Radi
cals now stand, partly through their own
blunders, and partly through the bold and
pushing political strategy of Mr. Johnson.
His position has the advantage that however
his moves turn out they secure something
iu his favor, aod, whether winning or
losing, in the popular sense, are sure to
help his game; while the position of the
Radicals is such that they can netytier stand
still nor fight nor fly without doiug for him
all he could desire. If Congress attempts
to save Stanton without impeachment it can
only do so by a revolutionary appeal to
force, which must prove a terrible error. If
t at tempts, impeachment, that fact will fall
ike another apple of discord, and will lead
to personal struggles in the party that will
demoralize and destroy it. Ou either baud,
therefore, its adherence to Stanton is ruin
ous, and it cauuot abandon him, for that
would be an admission fatal to all confident
in it. It cannot give Si an ton up now. He
is chained round the neck of his party, and
they must go to the depths together.—N. Y.

A Shocking Tragedy.—A woman near
Pembroke, Canada, was seized with a fit ol
insauity ami murdered her five children by
benting their brains out with an axe. The
little things had jnst gotten out of bed and
were standing arouud the stove. The spec-
laeie, says a (Jauadian paper, that presented
itself at the inquest is described as sicken-
W and pitiable iu the extreme. Three of
the children Wore already cold in death, and
tue other two, barely alive, were lying where
Ilij had 1 alien, with the ghastly wounds in
tneir heads, precluding the possibility of re
covery. (*)ne of these yet alive had, in ad-
liuion, part of one bund cut off, the little
Iking haring, probably, on the same princi
ple that “drowning men catch at straws,’
mechanically clasped its hand over its bead
to ward off the descending blow. The
'vormiu was committed to prisoai and since
that event has come to her senses, but save

Judge Thurman in Washington.—Judge
Thurman, United States Senator elect from
Ohio, made a speech from the balcony of the
Ebbitt House, in Washington, to a large sere
nading party. He said the present repre
sentative body in the National Legislature
was a mere fraction of the American people,
and contended that until the entire number
of States were represented in Congress such
a thing as a Republican form of government
wu3 out of the question. Every sentiment
uttered about-the S mth being kept out of
the Union by the operations of laws which
disfranchised the white male citizens of said
Stales aud give the controlling power to-the
blacks was warmly applauded.
George W- Childs, of the Philadelphia
Ledger, wrote this letter to James Gordon
Bqnnett, Jr., the other day : ..
“ My Dear Mr. Bennett: Fearing you
may not have seen our obituary notice of Mr.
Swain, I take the liberty ot inclosing it to
you. During his last illnesa Mr. Swain
often spoke of you, aud said on many oc
casions that yon have never had your equal
iu this country as an editor and newspaper
manager. The last time I spoke to him he
alluded to you and the Herald. He leavos
iwo sons aud over three millions of proper
ly. With kind regards to your sou, very
truly, yours, Geo. W. Childs.”
The Ledger obituary at once appeared in
the Herald, prefaced by this epistle of Mr
Childs.
Horrible.—A few days ago a man died
not far from thiB place and in this Stale, un
der the following fearful cironmsiance©: He
had been wicked during life. Drawing near:
to death’s door, fnenda endeavored to talk
to him upon the subject ot religion. He
repulsed them, saying that “if God would
not save him, he could go to hell.” In an
hoar or two he .died, crying out, “fire! fire,!
firel I am burning up with fire! ’ and with
these fearful and horrid exclamations qui
vering upon his lips; he passed away.—Gal

NERVOUS UNO DEBILITATED.
WHOSE SUFFERINGS HAVE BEEN
PROTRACTED FROM HIDDEN
CAUSES. AND WHOSE CASES RE
QUIRE PROMPT TREATMENT TO
RENDER EXISTENCE DESIRABLE.
If you are suffering or have suffered from
involuntary discharges, what effect does it
produce upon your general health ? Do yon
feel weak, debilitated, easily tired ? Does a
little extra exertion produce palpitation of
the heart? Does your liver, or urinary or
gana, or your kidneys, frequently get out of
order? Is your urine sometimes thiok,
milky, or flooky, or is it ropy on settling ?
Or does a thick ocum rise to the top ? Or is
a sediment at the bottom after it has stood
awhile ? Do you have spells of short breath
ing or dyspepsia ? Are your bowels consti
pated? Do you have spells of fainting or
rushes of blood to the head ? Is your mend-
ory impaired? Is your mind constantly
dwelling upon this subject? Do you feel
dull, listless, moping, tired of company, of
life ? Do you wish to be left alone, to get
away lrom everybody ? Does any little
thiufc' make you start or jump ? Is your
sleep broken or restless! Is the lustre of
your eye as brilliant? The bloom on yoqr
cheek as bright ? Do you enjoy yourself ifa
society as well ? Do you pursue your busi
ness with the same energy ? Do von feel rm
muoh confidence in yourself? Are yoUIr
spirits dull and flagging, given to fits oi
melancholy? If so, do not lay it to your
liver or dyspepsia. Have you restless nights?
Your back weak, your knees weak, and have
but little appetite, and you attribute this to
dyspepsia or liver-complaint ?
Now, reader, self-abuse, venereal diseases
badly cured, and sexual excesses, are all ca
pable of producing a weakness of the gen
erative organs. The organs of generation,
when iu perfect health, make the man. Did
you ever tbiuk that those bold, defiant, en
ergetic, perseyering, successful business mep
are always those whose generative organB
are iu perfect health ? You never hear such
men complain of being melancholy, of ner
vousness, of palpitation’ of the heart. They
ure never afraid they cannot succeed in busi
ness; they don’t become sad and discorir-
aged; they are always polite and pleasant in
the company of ladies, and look you and
i hem right in the face—none of your down
cast looks or any other meanness about
them. I do not mean those who keep the
orguns inflamed by running to excess. These
will not only'ruin their constitutions, bat
also those they do business with or for.
How many men from badly-cured diseases,
from the effects of self-abuse and excesses,
have brought about that state of weakness
in those organs that has reduced the general
system so much aa to induce almost every
other disease—idiocy, lunaoy, paralysis,
spinal affections, suicide, and almost every
other form of disease which humanity is
heir to, and the real cause of the trouble
scarcely ever suspected, and have doctored
for all but tho right one.
Diseases of these organs require the use
of a diuretic.

A Valuable and Powerful Fertilizer
For Cotton, Corn, Wheat, Peas, Garden Vegetables Ac.
IT IS COMPOSED OF INGBEDIENTS “EACH IN AND OF ITSELF A.VIQOBOUS
Fertilizing Agency!
They are used in their PURE STATE, and combined In the SUPER-PHOSPHATE
FREE FROM ADULTERATION, - and PERFECTLY SOLUBLE Tbe practical expe
rience given below,of planters daring the past season, fully establish all* the advaa ges
claimed for this well known Fertilizer.
Received the “Highest Premium’’ awarded to Fertilizers by the American Institute of
New York, held October, 1867.
For full report, with analysis made by the Committee of the Institute, composed of Dr
C ; fi. Buck, Prof. J. G. Roble, and other prominent Chemists, see Pamphlets.
The distinguishing leatnre of this Super Phosphate from other similar Fertilizers ia that
all of its ingredients are of auimal origin, and are either soluble in water, or In a condition
to quickly become soluble iu the soil, and be taken up by.Uie crop.
Contains no inert or mineral materials.
The proper relative proportion of the ingredients in Mapes* Super-Phosphate, to meet
the requirements of the Cotton crop on Georgia aod South Carolina soils, is fully proved
by tbe experience of Planters,, who testify that whenever tJ^ey applied the same to land
noted for rusting Cottoo, the disease was entirely corrected and a healthy, vigorous
growth produced, on the same land. ■ '*
Peruvian Guano aud other Fertilizers have failed to secure a healthy growth.|
TESTIMONIALS.
THOMAS S. SALTER, Washington county, Ga.,
reports that seveuty five pouu^s per acre, on old
laud, increased both the Cotton and Corn three-fold.
Considers it far more economical than Peruvian
Guano.
Da. R. PARSON3, Sandersvllle, Washington eo.
Ga, says;—My observation Is that Mapes* Super
Phosphate is a preventive against rust in Cotton
Hag about doubled the Cotton and trebled the Com.
Has done better than i ernvton pound tor pound.
J. W. SCOTT, of tbe same section, reports that his
crop manured with Peruvian Guano was far more
“ir.-cted by dronth and excessive rains than where
Map ee- Super- Phosphate was used. Mi all use
Mapes* iu preference to any Fertiliser he has seen
used by his neighbors. *
W. H. SPARKS, Eatonton. Ga,, reports:—On land
about half covered with sedge, and which had not
been cultivated in two years, where the, man ure was
put in badly, manured crop would yield two pounds
whore the on manured woulu yield one.
B. B. HAMILTON, Americas, Ga., reperts;—Ob
tained the most satisfactory nsuit from Mapes*
Saper-Pbosphete, applying It as a top-dresslnn. It
is considered by ni, 1 have had the beet gardes this
year in Southwestern Georgia.'
W. J. ANDERSON, Port Valley, Ga.. report*:—
Mapes’ Super-Phosphate has douoled the crop of
Cotion in eyery case reported, and eome report it
has more than doubled their crop. On Wheat and
Oats the result was very satisfactory. j /.
D. A. WAR NOCK, Beach Branch, 8. C., reports
in land which always rostod Cotton increased the
Crop two-fold.es fine Ootcon as he has seen this year.
Prevented rust. Four rows unmanured rusted In
August. Everything the Mapes* Super-Phosphate
wu tried on did well. Cotton stood the cold
weather iu Spring, kept perfectly green and grew
finely. Has near Peruvian Guano in his neighbor,
hoot. Believes it to be the best manor* now In use
-E. R. LILES, Lilosvill* Anderson District, S. C.,
reports:—as compared with Peruvian Guano and
Mapes’ Soper-Phosphate, the re-nit was decidedly
in favor of Mapes* >uper-Phoeph»te, attributable
.oeyond doubt to the fact that the ravages of the
nut were not, py * marked difference, to be seen
where it was applied, as where the other manures
were.
;• -r' - 'Ur> jltJ . j ;
JAMES MoMEBKIN, Alston, 8. C., reports:—Use
e ton of Peruvian and found the result hot one-halt
as compared wi’h Mapes’ Super-PhospQate. Soil
mostly sandy, with clay sab-soli. Marked difference
in rise of t&d balls In fever of Mapes? Soper-Phoe-
phate. On cabbage plants the Increased growth
was about loo per cant.
JOHN R. HAIR Mims, & C.^-Cotton was made
vigorous and healthy, and matured at least two weeks
earlier where Mapes* Super-Phosphate wan seed, as
compared with other FertUifeem. Mapes* Soper-
Pnognhate produced 100 pounds pot acre more cot
ton than Rhodes’ Super-Phosphate, and 00 pounde
per acre more than SohiWe Pacific Gueno. Same
quantity sf each (150 poaads) osed to the acre; cul
tivated la the same manesr. Mapes’ Soper-Phoe*
phate more than doubled tie yield iff cotton.
R. J. VENNING, Christ Chttrcfc Parish, S. O.. re
port*—One application of 90C pounds Mapes* Super-
Phosphate per acre msde the Gotten grow to the
height ot sxxfiet, where it grew only two feet the
year hclore. Considers Mapes’ 8npdr FhomAnte the
BEST FERTILIZER FOB SKA ISLAND OOTTGN,
and wonld safely recommend it to all planters.
8. C MEANS, Spartanburg, f. O., Writes—Used
940 poond* per acre, applied May 18th. Caa safely
say never saw a more vigorous growth Imparted to
Cotton from tbe use of any manure, the
use of Mapes’ Super-Phosphate pays hundreds.
