A Warning to Smokers.
We read much of the at
tempts of the benevolent to reclaim the
drunkard by t emperance pledges, and by pray
er-raids on the retail vendors of liquor
Some States have passed laws allowing the
wives of inebriates to recover damages from
those who sell the rum to their husbands
and in some cases, the juries awarded heavy
amounts. It has also been proposed to place
the habitual drunkard in a semi-insane
asylum until cured of his desire for “the
distilled damnation.” We can furnish a bet
ter remedy. Ist. Have all liquors analyzed,
and hang the man who sells an impure arti
cle. 2d. Charge one dollar a drink. 3d.
Fine every one five dollars for each drink he
takes over and above .three during twenty
four hours.
But there is an equally large aud impor
tant class as much entitled to our commis
eration as the liquor drinker. We refer to
the tobaeco user, more especially the smoker.
Why not have anti-tobacco pledges ? Why
not raids by ladies on the cigar shops ? Sure
ly an equal amount of money is taken from
family uses to purchase “the filthy weed.’’
Though men may not become sots and beat
their “beloveds.” yet there is almost the
same neglect of the family to be observed.
The wife and children do not smoke, and the
smoker needs a companion. Not every one
can afford a smoking room, and the wife does
not wish the odor of the cigar or pipe to per
meate the reception rooms, and especially
the sleeping apartments. Then comes that
stereotyped falsehood. “I made an appoint
ment to meet a man on business; will be
home as soon as possible.”- So the evening
passes, the same in the family of drunkard
and smoker, as if the father or husband was
dead; prictically a widowed family. And
the man has left home affections and com
forts for what ? To smoke tobacco ? Not
a bit of it. lie calls it tobacco, pays a high
price for it, represents that his is better than
his neighbor’s, that it has been smuggled
from Havana by a particular friend, etc. He
may or may' not be sincere, but the odor be
trays its nature. Wliat does he smoke ? Well
generally, cabbage leaves, sumac, hound’s
tongue, brown paper and any other material
that wdll absorb tobacco tea and may be
passed off as a substitute for plant tobacco.
The consequence is that smokers are nerv
ous, cross and'unhappy unless in the society
ot smokers. When the desire to smoke comes
they must he alone or with their boon com"
panions. The poison of the compounds they
smoke is in their blood; affects the brain )
arid, to a certain extent, their moral and in
tellectual being, for the worse. This poison
craves the other poison-manufactured liquor.
One seems a corrective of the other, but in
reality, he is taking in two poisons. We
have known so said the physicians! of n
ease where the excessive use of tobacco
smoking developed typhus fever. The sys"
tern was poisoned by the “stuff smoked.
Most smokers have more or less dyspepsia
and bronchitis. Smokers! beware of the so
called tobacco sold in the stores. The mer"
chants are innocent. You demand and they
supply. Our fathers smoked and drank, but
they lived in times when it was an insult to
offer their neighbor any' but the very best
liquor, and they raised their own tobacco.
They enjoyed life and lived to a good old
age. Let us follow their example and be
come octogenarians, jf you cannot get pure
liquor don’t insult your manhood by drink
ing inferior. Raise your own tobacco. A
small patch will interest, amuse and instruct
you. You will take more personal pride in
it, and talk more satisfactorily of your ‘crop’
than if vou were the owner of a large rice
plantation and woriied by freshets and birds-
Fellow-smokers, the remedy is in our own
power. Let us become Grangers. AVe want
no middle men to make our tobacco. Let
us go to mother earth and get the pure arti
cle, and at. first cost. Then we can bid adieu
to headaches and dizziness; to foul stomachs
and offensive breaths. AVe must institute
anti-tobacco societies to save our fellow-be
ings from poisoned blood. Incite the ladies
to petition and sing the tobacco vendors in
to an eternal surrender. Let us make a bon
fire of the wretched substitute that shall
blaze a warning from Greenland’s iev monn_
tains to Afric’s sunny fountains, and in flu.
ence even the man in the moon to reject the
impure article. Yes, we will raise our own
Havana and Latnkia. No longer will our
wives “dip” snuff or chew “twist” on the
sly, nor longer crave “solace” or the “liquor
ice flavor.” But convinced with their lords
of their former self-deception and self-ruin,
“the old man and the old woman,” with a
light heart and thin conscience, will joyous
ly smoke their own cheroots, and educate
their children and grand children to the en
joyment of a sure and cheap comfort and
pleasure of life.

Card From RothseßUd A- Adams.
Darien, Ga., July 20th, 1 5 74.
Mr. Editor:
Our attention has been called to a discus
sion going on in your paper, over the signa
tures of “Citizen A’ Tempo” and ‘Attorneys
pro Prosecution.” Our name is, as a matter
of course, brought into the matter and we
ask the use ot your paper to put ourselves
right.
We had no desire to turn Charles Harris
loose upon this community; it is true we
wanted our money, but we wanted Charles
Harris, the acknowledged thief, kept sately
and securely, and requested of our attorneys
to keep Harris in jail or under bonds. This
request was made to L. E. I>. DeLorme, Esq.,
and he afterwards led us to believe it had
been done; he said it was all right, and we
believed it had been done. We also believe
George McFail and others are connected
with the robbery and not one of them, with
our 'consent, shall escape the penalty of their
crime, and we certainly are not responsible
for Harris’ escape.

[The above is the heading of a fragment of
MS. which we found among the papers of a
friend who willed them to our care, and if
needed for publication.]
For the information of the Medical Facnl
tv, I would slate that our caption signifies n
treatise on fevers. As most of the graduates
in medicine study for the diploma and not
for information, and trust to the use of a few
technical expressions and luck for reputa
tion, I deem it my duty to present them with
a post-graduate course of lectures on fevers.
Fevers are of two kinds, those of the body
and termed Bilious, and those of the mind
and known as Phashomic
Bilious Fevers. —We will examine these
beginning with the mildest form.
1. The Typhoid abounds where people live
chiefly by tlieir wits. When these play out
and they can no longer beg, borrow, cheat,
gamble or steal, this fever comes to their as
sistance by prostrating them in bed for an
indefinite period and exciting the sympathy
of their well-to-do neighbors on whose con
tributions they manage to survive with much
self-satisfaction. Those wishing to avoid ar.
rests, duns and simalar interruptions to the
I happiness of life are frequently subjects to
attacks of this fever. If it would attack can
didates for office, the bulls and bears on ex
change, and other classes of men who are
i chronic afflictions to the community, it
would be held as a blessing by their neigh
bors. Diagnosis; The patient has fever'
i complexion billious, tongue discolored, when
I too weak, don’t eat; is inclined to keep his
j bed. If he does not partake of food in two
months is apt to die. Regimen; Scrub the
: patent from head to foot in lye-water, twice
I per diem. This causes respiration. Calo
mel loz, Jalep loz, Ipecac 1 oz, Glob, salts 1
j gill, mix, divide in three parts, once every
I four hours. This produces a double ejec
| t.ion of the disease. This may seem rather
j powerful to a weak-minded Homoepathist,
, but we must be governed by Mother Nature,
who teaches us that the stronger power will
over come the weaker. Hence the remedy
must be sufficient to eradicate the disease.
| As the chances of recovery from this disease
| are about even, so the physician should not
hesitate to experiment. If the patient die
|he is rid of a few days pain, and medical
science furnishes so much new matter for fu
ture practitioners.
2 The Congestive type is temporarily del
eterious to the suggestive faculty of the
brain. The patient is in an active comatose
state; soberly drunk; alive without mental
activity The duration of the delerinm de
pends on the amount of brains, for as they
permeate the whole cerebnm, smaller quan
tity of brains sooner yields to the remedies
employed. Dr. Hippocrates, the father of
all physh ians, advised the application of
Dal lev's Pain Extrator to the feet thereby
drawing the fev r from the head. But expe
rience could find no mode of then extracting
the fever from the feet bei'qfe it returned to
the head, until Dr. Galen, his successor, and
a celebrated apothecary in Greece, discovered
the application of the tourniquet below the
knees, thereby stopping the circulation of
the blood until the fever dried out by per
spiration through the pedal extremities.
This experiment suggested to Servetus and
Harvey the theory of the circulation of the
blood. Blood letting was at one time in
vogue, but it was found that all the blood
must be let to exhaust the fever, and the
patient seldom recovered. Diagnosis : Pulse
2:40 on a dead level; tongue greenish-blue;
patient in delirium, unconscious of anything
but milk punch and brandy toddy. Needs
watching. Regimen : When first taken, to
prevent an extension of fever through the
system, place the patient perpendicularly
with head downward in a cask of ice. The
ice absorbs the fever. Replace the ice until
the fever be gone or the brain frozen. Then
recover the vitality of the cerebrum by elec
tric shocks and as many hot drinks of a
restorative nature as the patient is willing
to take. Another method would be to ap
ply the tourniquet to the neck, and thus
keeping the fever to the. brain, it might be
dislodged by a prolonged bath of saponaceous
water or a delicate brain sap-pump.
* Explanation.
Darien, July 22d, 1874.
Mr. Editor:
In your paper of July 18 th, Mr. T. P. Pease
says in his reply to “Citizen ’A Tempo”:
“The military companies were required to
arm and assist in restoring peace; they de
clined saying it was too hazzardous.”
The statement is positively inconect, and
a misrepresentation, for these are the cir
cumstances: Upon receiving Mr. T.P.Pease’s
letter, requesting the military companies un
der my command to hold themselves in readi
ness to assist the Marshal and his deputies
in making certain arrests, I called upon Mr.
T. P. Pease, in company with Capt Jos. Hil
ton, and told him that I would engage for
every man of my command who was within
reach, coming out as citizens, if he would
call out a posse of citizens, but that I did
not think myself authorized to bring them
out as a military company, at either his re
que‘ or order, ‘ lmt that if he would tele
graph the Governor and get an order from
him for us to turn out arid do the duty de
sired, that I would hold myself and company
ready whenever called upon.
I have before me both Mr. T. P. Pease’s
communication and iiiv written reply to him.
written alter my interview with him at his
request, showing the above.
Very respectfully.

W:<s There a Butler in Egypt?
A sms.!' boy in this community was listen
ing to ihe uitiln .<! story of Joseph in Egypt,
on Sunday ev. uing last. When his mother
came to that part of the narrative which de
scribes Joseph’s associates m Podphars pris
on, and his iuterpredat'm of tin dreams of
tla-chief baker and butier, the little iellow
looked up with a sudden manifestation ot
lively interest, which he had not l efore
evinced, and asked: “Ma, did they put that
butler in jail for stealing spoons ?”
Kcply of “Citizen ’A Tempo’’ to the “At
torneys pro Prosecution.”
Mr. Editor-.
The weak and tlio puerile usually, resort
to abuse, when hard pressed for an argu
ment. without reference either to truth or
insistency. It was, what was to have been
xpected from a fifth-rate Lawyer; and the
mblic were not surprised or disappointed at
he style of the last article of “Attorneyspro
Prosecution.”
Fortunately, neither the pitiful slander to
,vhich that redoubted correspondence gives
utterance, nor the blatant denials of his ad
versaries, are at all likely to injure “Citizen
A’ Tempo,” or detract the attention of the
public eye from the points at issue, after the
publication of the following evidence. It
will be remembered, that “Citizen A’ Tem
po” charged in the first instance, as a great
outrage, that Charles Harris who had con
fessed the crime ot stealing a large sum of
money from Rothschild A Adams, whose con
fession was known to the Coart, before whom
he was brought; and to the Attorneys for the
prosecution as being guilty, should have
been released by them, without giving bonds.
To thin, and the just criticism upon their
conduct by •Citizen A’ Tempo,” the Court
(T. P. Pease) and the Attorneys, have taken
violent exception. In tlieir first answer they
claim that there were three errors, viz:
"Error No. 1. It is not true that Rothschild
A Adams had Charles Harris arrested and
lodged in Chatham county jail. Error No.
2. It was cot and it is not now judicially
known to the Hon. T. P. Pease that Charles
Harris confessed the crime aforesaid. Error
No. 3. Charles Harris never was before said
Court subsequent to his acquittal as afore
said, except as a witness. ” In the second
answer, "Attorneys pro Prosecution” deny
that Guyton brought Harris from Savannah
uuder au order from T. P. Pease. They de
ny the truth of "Citizen A’ Tempo’s” pre
vious statements. They implore him as a
great favor to furnish the facts. They ex
pect that it is all “braggadocio,” and that he
can’t do it. They demand the proofs. They
shall have them.
Kaufman is the officer who made the arrest
in Savannah. Here is his affidavit :

That the warrant for the arrests of the said
parties above mentioned, was issued by 8.

that the affidavits to procure the wan ants

From these papers, Mr. Editor, it is plain
ly evident that Charles Harris and George

Pease, Conuty Commissioner, and by A.
Guyton, Deputy Sheriff Rothschild A Ad
ams will tell any one that they bore all the
expenses. Guyton will tell you the same
thing. Rothschild A Adams will tell you
that it was no part of tlieir plan to turn
them loose, or any one else connected with
the crime. Guyton will tell any one that he
kept the prisoners in safe custody ’till deliv
ered to the Court. Who then is responsible
for this outrage ?
After this. Mr. Editor, will “Attorneys
pro Prosecution” and T. P. Pease, continue
to deny that they have committed the grave
offense of releasing a prisoner under legal
arrest, and of turning loose upon the com
munity a confessed felon, or will they per
sist in denying all correct knowledge, or in
formation of ft transaction in which they
were such active participants-, such may be
the case, but in future, both their denials and

Mr. Editor;
I ask a short space in your valuable column*, In
order that the public may be relieved of any opin
ion adverse to me which they may have, grotrtng
out of my recent arrest, which occurred ten days
ago,—cha-ged with resisting and obstructing an of
ficer in the discharge of a legal process.
The alleged resistance was this: at the time charg
ed in the Warrant I was sitting in Mr. McClannahan
Tailor’s shop, conversing with him on business,
when Lewis Jackson, one of the Deputy Marshsl’s
or the city came in with a Distress Warrant against
McClannahan. which he levied on the goods in the
shop, and during the time Jackson was in the shop
making the levy Mr. McClanhahan told Jackson to
go to hell, for which the offended Marshal then
threatened to arrest him and put him in the “lock
up,” to which tin eat, I replied, that he would not
put him in jail, for I would stand his bond and keep
him out. The Deputy then took out a Warrant for
the arrest of McClannahan and myself, for ‘‘resist
ing and obstructing and officer.” We were brought
before His Honor, T. P. Pease, and by him honor
ably discharged, there being not the slightest evi
dence against McClannahsn aud myself.
