Terrible Tornado.
Cixcixnatti, Aug. 28. — 7lie Louis
ville papers cf this morning contain full
particulars of ye>tenlay*s Tornado. l ive
I). inocrat ile.-ciibes it as one of the most
violent storms that ever swept over that
section of the country.
The Third Presbyterian Church, or,
the corner of Eleventh and Walnut streets,
as completely wrecked, and the entire
building tel! in, including the roof, rafters,
and brick wall, ermhing twenty cf the
cong-fifation t<> instant death, and wound
ing severely ten or twenty others. The
scene was truly heart rending. Soot, a
large crowd assembled, and began their
search for the victims. A mother and
her three children were grouped in death
Another scene presented a father, mother
and babe the father dead and the mo
ther mortally wounded, while the little
child placed beneath them remained un
hurt, being protected by the forms of its
parent?. In other instance.-, some of the
victims were found terribly wounded and
maimed.
The catastrophe has stricken conster
nation into the very heart of the city, and
is people are appalled beyond belief.
The following are a list ol the killed:
Mrs. Vildabec and three children,
Mrs. Taylor and child,
.Mr. Godfrey, Mrs. Salisbury,
Miss Headley, John McGowan,
Mrs. Martin, wife of John M. Martin,
stdler,
Mrs. Wicks, niece of Mrs. Martin,
Mr. Sweeney, Mr. IJarlour, Mr. Mc-
Clelland,
Mr. R Davis a resident of New Albany,
Mr. Mcßride and child.
it is thought that one or two others
were killed, whose names have not been
Lamed.
Fully one hundred buddings in the
city were unroofed and otherwise injured.
The storm passed over that part of the
city lying between Fifth and Twenty first
streets. A splendid block of four story
bouses recently erected on tbeNonhside
.f Main between Ivght'n and Ninth streets
was completely destroyed, and two or
men, it is supposed, are in tlu* ru
i s. 1 i.ese buildings cost SIB,OOO.
The coper sto r v of the rope and bag
gr.g factory of W. A Richardson & Cos.
on Magazine street, was blown down,
and the new city school house on the
coiner of Ninth and Magazine streets,
was unroofed. The total less is estima
ted at sico,ceo.
‘i he stoim was also very severe in
Jeffersonville, where four houses weie
blown down.
Phot r.sj. axtisii in Italy.— During the
past year, 110 houses with 4,000 rooms,
have beta built in Turin; and all this is
attributable to the fact that the Constitu
tion tolerates religious liberty. Turin is
growing under the new impulses cf Pro
testantism like a green bay tree The
Waldenses arc about opening in that city
u Protestant Temple, the first in Italy,
upon the very spot where the Dominicans
b urnt the bodies of the martyrs. And
thus, while Catholic, Priest-ridden, en
slaved Italy is emerging from the slavery
of religious bondage,—free, republican,
libcity-loving America is bending to the
yoke, and her citizens lending a ready
service by so'eran oath to religious intol
erance. Even in Rome, under the very
nose of the Pope, his Cardinals and all the
Roman Church dignitaries, there is a Pro
testant chapel, where they worship God
after their own manner, and they are not
in any wise molested or troubled. Their
church stands much safer than a Reman
Catholic church does in this country
When Mr. Van Buren was at Rome, he
retic as he was, the Pope was on intimate
terms with him, lent him rare books from
the Vatican, sent him hoquets from his
gardens, and treated him altogether like
u gentleman and a Christian. Now who
shows the best Christian spirit, the Pope
or the Know Nothings? “By their fruits
ye shall know them.” That is the rule
given to us by our Saviour. Not by their
Pharisaical pretensions.
Ex-Senator Downs is nut dead. The
report of his eeatli, it appears, was false.
‘I he passengers on board the steamer
Haiti?, during her last trip from Xew
York to Liverpool, complain of the “bad
character” of the coal How could they
expect the character of the coal to be fair,
seeing it was of ths blackest hue 1
Weak, Nervous, Depressed in Spirits,
and a prey to innumerable mental as well
as physical evils, the victim of dyspep
sia, is indeed an object of commiseration.
Vet it is absurd for him to despair. We
care not how low, weak, nervous and ir
ritable he may be, the cordial properties
of Hoofland’s German Hitters, prepared by
Dr. C. M. Jackson, I'hila , are stronger
than the many headed monster which is
preying upon his body and mind; and if
he chooses to try them, we will insure a
speedy cure 2t
The Poetry of Physic. — Doses have al
ways been associated in our minds with
wry faces, and medicine has seemed from
the days of childhood, another word for
nausea and disgust. Its remedies were
the worst part of sickness, ami pain was
not so hard to hear us the revolting po
tions we were compelled to sw allow for
its relief. Dr. .Ayer’s preparations her
ald another era. llis Cherry Pectoral is
like honey on the tongue, and healing
balm in the stomach. His Pill ‘• try them
—they are sweet morsels to the taste and
glide sugar-shod over the palato, but their
energy although wrapped up, is there,
and strikes with telling force to the very
foundations of disease --Cincinnati Citi

Dr. John Minge, of the City of Rich

of course opposed to what he called quack
medicines, was obliged to say its good
effects in the case of Mr. Ramsey, were
wonderful indeed.

FjBMIE Exercises of this School, nt GRIFFIN,
JsL GA„ will be resumed on Monday, the 7lh of
August, tor the instruction ot both Males and Fe
males, under the supervision of WM. WAL
LACE, and such other assistance, as the best
interests oi the School may require. Believing
that a thorough knowledge ol the Elementary
principles, com tituting as they do, the basis of
education, should be obtained as a preparatory
step on which to reach the higher branches of a
1 polite and classical education, special attention
writ be given to Orthography, Arithmetic, En
glish Grammar, Rules ot Composition, Wriling,
&c. The Liberal Institute shall be, both in the
ory and practice,what it purports lobe in name: an
Institution for the education of Students, entirely
free from all sectarian bias or influences. While
all.students entering the school willbe required to
demean themselves in such a manner ns will com
port with the strictest principles of gentility and
morality, no student will bo permitted to re
main in tire Institute, who manifests a disposi
tion lo continue in the violation; of good and
wholesome discipline. Thefrnmeand constitution
of liuman nature have not failed to Convince Un
reflecting portion of mankind, that gentle (hough
firm systems of school discipline, under the guid
ance of moral suasion, liave proved fa r super:o e
in correcting errors and regulating actions, to th* 1
potent rod and other means of terror; the leaden 6
cy of which is merely to force a compliance wit*
requisitions whilst in sight—to superinduce thus
servile dispositions, which are at total variancr
with such principles of magnanimity and indee
pendence as constitute the true nobility of char
acter. The fact that the “proper study of'man
kind, is in: n,”has proved the necessity of introdu
cing such books as text books which discuss the
Mental and Physical Constitution of Man,
lierefore Comb’s Constitution cf man and
‘Mental and Physical Physiology” will be classed
with the prominent text hooks in the Institute.—
Arrangements are being made for engaging Ihe
services of a competent lady, to take charge of the
•Undents who may wish lo lake lessons in music,
drawing, painting, &.O. The exercises of ihe
school will close with an unvarnished examination
of'the pupils, ofvvhieh due notice will be given.—

A few short Extracts from Letters, Testimonials, &c.
•‘1 have used Jacob’s Cordial in my family, and have found it a most efficient, and in my judgment ,
a valuable remedy.” Hon. Hiram Warner, ex- Judge of Supreme Court, Ga.
“It gives me nlcasure in being able to recommend Jacob’s Cordial—my own personal experieme,
and the experience of my neighbors and friends around me, is a sufficient guarantee for me to believe
it to be all that it purports to be, viz. “a sovereign remedy.” \\ m. H. Underwood,
Formerly Judge of Superior Court, Cherokee Circuit.
”1 take great pleasure in recommending this invaluable medicine to all afflicted with bowel diseases,
for which 1 tclicve it to boa sovereign remedy —decidedly superior to any thing else evertiied by me.’’
A. A. Gaulding, Deputy G. M. of the Grand Lodge of Georgia.
*I | laV 3 used ‘Jacob’s Cordial’ in my family, and this, with a hear about it as a remedy by those
who have tried it, induces me to believe Unit H stands at tl.c bead ol every preparation of the kind, unit,
would recommend its use in the disease for which it is compounded.” Miles G. Dobbins,
Cashier ol the Bank of the State ol Georgia, Grimn.
‘‘II lh< re is any credibility in human testimony, “Jacob’s Cordial’ must stand pre-eminent above all
other preparation's for the cure of Bowel Diseases. From the mass of testimony in it favor coining l
iii from all quarters, it must be very far in advance, as a curative agent, ol most if not a other ‘patent*
preparations.” A. Fleming, Cashier Marine and Fire Insurance Bank, Griffin,
“This efficient remedy is training /mo celebrity as Castas Bonaparte pushed his columns into*
and ‘Minin'’ commendation wherever used.” Georgia Jeffersonian, May liilli 1853.
