REMARKABLE CURE OF
SCROFULA, ETC,
CASE OF COL. J. C. BRANSON.
Kingston, geokoia, September 15,1872.
Doctor J. H. J’emherton:
Dkak Sru—lt gives me pleasure
to furnish you with an account of
the remarkable cure which I have experienced
from the use of vour Compound Extract of
Stillingia. For sixteen years I have been a
great sufferer from Scrofula iu its most
distressing forms. 1 have been confined to my
room and bed for fifteen years with scrofulous
ulcerations. Such was my condition—far more
painful and distressing than language can
describe. Most of the time 1 was unable to
rise from bed. The most approved remedies
for sucli cases had been used, und the most
eminent physicians consulted, without any
decided benefit. Thus prostrated, distressed
desponding, I was advised by Doctor Ayer, of
Floyd county, Georgia, to commence tiie u»e
of your Compound Extract of Stillingia.
Language is insufficient to describe the relief
I obtained from the use of the Stillingia as it
is to convey an adequate idea of the intensity
ofmy suffering betore using your medicine;
sufficient to »ay, “I am cured of all pain,” of
all disease, with nothing te obstruct tne active
pursuit of my profession. More than eight
months have elapsed since this remarkable
cure, without any return Os the disease.
For the above statement 1 refer to any
gentleman in Bartow county, Georgia, and to
the members of the bar of Cherokee Circuit,
who are acquainted witli me. I shall ever
remain, sir, witli the deepest gratitude,
Four obedient servant, J. C. BRANSON.

BEDS.
The enormous beds iu fashion in
tho middle ages, in which not only the
whole family, but favorite domestic
animals, hunting dogs, cats, etc., re
posed together, excite our liveliest as
tonishment. In those days the aristo
cracy did not find it undignified to
share their couches with friends or
rrncai-o bA- rr I.► *l—-- *--^xi'tllHy.
It was on the contrary, considered a
mark of sincere friendship.
It is now commonly believed that
where two persons sleep together, one
abstracts from the other some amount
of vital forco. This is especially the
case where old and young persons
share the same bed. Besides in a
room where there is no decided cur
rent of air, the emanations from the
luugs and skin of the sleeper poison
the atmosphere for a considerable
distance. In the public wards of the
great hospitals,' never less than two
n*.*» a null let! is allowed between
each bed, for tins mason. In the
sleeping apartments oi royalty and
nobility single beds are everywhere
the rule, and nowhere the exception.
The Emperor of Germany sleeps up
on a narrow bed and a hard mattress.
Tho single bed-covering is a wadded
silk quilt. The Emperor aud Empress
of Austria take their royal slumblers
on similar beds, with the same de
scription of coverlet. One of the
principal advantages of these narrow
beds is that the mattresses are more
easily aired. Even the poorest house
wiles iu Germany recognize the fact
that bedding requires daily airing,
and r.n a pleasum. day iu winter, anti
nearly every day in summer, one may
see stretched out of the court yard
window for an entire half day the
featherbeds and coverings so dear to
the heart of a German frau.— Galaxy.
HEAVEN.
There every house is a palace, every
step a triumph, every stroke of the
bell a wedding peal, every day a jubilee
and every hour a rapture. The re
unions of heaven, too, will be better
than all our conceptions of them.—
How glad we are to meet a friend iu
some foreign land, when we have
crossed the seas; but when we have
crossed the sea of death, and meet
the friends of years gone by, how de
lighted we shall be. Now when we
see a friend after a lapse of ten or
twelve years, and notice the increas
ing wrinkles and new marks of sor
row and disappointment, we exclaim:
How you have changed! But wheu
we see these frinds in heaven, with all
the marts of sorrow gone, then shall!
we say indeed: How you hare chang
ed! Here good-byes and farewells
fill the air; childhood lisps it aud old
age answers. Good-bye ends the
banquet and closes the Christmas
chant; but not so iu heaven. Wel
comes fill the air, but no good-byes.
The group there is constantly be
ing augmented. Our friends are join
ing it; Jordan’s waves roar so hoarse
ly that we cannot hear their voices
from the other side. We call to them
tut get no answer, and unbelief says
they are dead, but the Bible tells us
no! They are waiting for our coming.
We shall grasp their hands at last in
the glorious reunion of heaven.— Rev.
T. L). Talmadge.
Marriage Conducive to Longevity.
—Those dry but useful people who
delight iu statistics have been investi
gating the effect of marriage and ce
libacy on mortality. They have de
monstrated to then* satisfaction the
beneficial effect of marrage upon lon
gevity. The last person who has de
voted his attention to this subject is
M. Bertillon. His statistics cover the
States of I ranee, Holland and Belgi
um. According to M. Bertillon be
tween the ages of 20 and 30 out of
1,000 married men there are G deaths,
out of 1,000 bachelors 10 deaths, aud
1,000 widowers 22 deaths. Between
30 and 35 the deaths in the same
number are: Married men 7, bache
lors 11, aud widowers 17. Between
35 aud 40 years of age mortality per
1,000 is: Married men 8, bachelors
13, and widowors 17. Continuing
these calculations through different
series of years, the advantage ou the
score of longevity is always on the !
side of the married men.
“You see, grandmamma, we perfo
rate an aperture in tho apex, and a
corresponding aperture in the base;
and applying the egg to the lips, and
forcibly inhaling the breath, the shell
is entirely discharged of its contents.”
“Bless my soul,’’ cried the old lady,
“what wonderful improvements they
do make! Now, in my younger days,
we just made a "hole in each end and
sucked.”
Three millions four hundred and
fifty thousand bales is our Southern
cotton crop for this year, as estimated
by the Department of Agriculture,
which is 1G per cent, increase upon
the crop of last year.
THE HORSE DISEASE.
HOW IT WAS TREATED IN THE UNITED
STATES ARMT IN 1868.
The horse disease continues its
spread and now there are but few
even private stables that are not at
tacked. Yesterday with the excep
tion of the street cars, there was hard
ly a vehicle of any kind visible on
Main street, even at noon day. Milk
men and the transier and express: com
panies now use mules, bat in tvro or
three days more, in all probability,
these will be attacked, and then trans
portation, except by ox power, will
; cease. All the doctors have ceased
to ride, their buggy horses being sick,
and now the day and night officers of
the police walk over the town looking
after the “stars,” instead of riding, as
; heretofore.
FIRE ENGINE HORSES SICK.
The fire engine horses are all sick,
and immediate steps should be taken
by the fire department to organize
bodies of either paid or volunteer
fireman for each engine house. There
should be a sufficient number of men
at each house to pick the engine up
1 in case of an alarm, and “jump’er”
right along, without losing time. The
cost will be comparatively email, and
in the event of a large fire, their sal
aries would be saved many times over
to the city'. Iu other cities where the
I epidemic has raged, volunteer compa
nies have been formed of shopmen
and mechanics, working contiguous to
the various engine houses. Hundreds
of able-bodied men do business with
in a minute’s ruu of each of the four
engine houses, and if called upon by
the proper persons, would, without
doubt, gladly join a company of this
kind. Let the Captain of each house
organize a company of volunteers to
day, and then man his engine and
hose carriage with good stout ropes
properly, and, in the event of a fire,
there will be no cause for complaint
about the time of the arrival of en
! gines.
IN THE COUNTRY.
Out in the country the horse disease
is spreading as thoroughly as in the
; city, all of the horses and mules for
miles around being attacked. At He
j lena, Arkansas fV> ~ flas made
! lta aP poarance, and yesterday the two
j iivery and sale stables oi that town
; were closed. Tho spreading of the
disease in the country proves its at
mospheric nature, aud that it was uot
“caught,” as many havo contested,
from other horses.
In view of the ravages of the horse
disease in and about Memphis, the
following will be found both interest
esting and useful:
General Roberts, U. S. A., has writ
ten this lotter to Mr. Robert Bonner,
relative to tho horse disease:
Springfield, Mass., Oct. 23, 1872.
Mr. BoNNER-Dear Sir: In tho spring
of 18G8, a disease broke out among
my cavalry horses at Fort Sumner,
New Mexico, that appears to me iden
tical with that now raging among the
horses in our city, and in a very few
days became an epidemic.
At first it defied all treatment, and
the great majority of horse3 attacked
by it died. On examining the throats
of the dead horses I found the lining
membrane of the larnyx highly in
flamed and thickened, and a thick mu
cous pus filling it, causing suffocation.
I ordered all horses on the first ap
pearance of the disease, to bo thorou
ghly rubbed between the lower jaws
and along the larnyx down the neck
with spirits of turpentine, causing a
very severe external irritation and
blister.
I saved every horse thus treated,
and iu a very few days entirely broke
the distemper and checked the epi
demic.
I do not doubt that thousands of
horses, where tho epidemic prevails,
can be saved by adopting this treat
ment. It acts more quickly as a coun
ter-irritant than any other remedy I
know, and relieves the fever of the
membrane of the larnyx in a few hours.
Besides, spirits of turpentine is al
ways at hand, and can be moro readi
ly applied than any other counter-irri
tant. It should be thoroughly rub
bed in through the hair to the skin,
for a distance of some twelve or thir
teen inches, under the jaws and down
tho neck of the horse, immediately
over the larnyx. The remedy is severe,
and makes the skin sore for several
weeks, and for an hour causes great
suffering to the horse. But it acts
promptly and effectively, and, in my
judgement it will be found the best,
and perhaps the only cure for this fa
tal malady causing such suffering and
loss among horses throughout the
country.
My love of horses induces me to
address you, aud to ask you to give
this communication such place iu your
paper as to reach the public in the
most prompt and general way, and
stay one of the greatest misfor
tunes now threatening all communi
ties, and destroying by thousands the
noblest animal created for the service
of man.
Very truly yours,
R. S. Roberts,
Brevet Brigadier General U. S. Army.
Palmetto paper is exciting the at
tention of capitalists just now. Mr.

tion of dress as that held by the
Nashville ladies referred to.

matters of serious difference between
this country and England. It howev

Teach me a counterfeit to know,
And bargains good to see,
For quarters I to others show,
Show fifty cents to me.

POETRY.
FORTY YEARS AGO.
How wondrous are ike changes, Jim,
Since forty years ago,
\\ hen gals wore woollen dresses, Jim,
And boys wore pants of tow ;
When shoes were made of calfskin
And socks of homespun wool,
And children did a half day’s work,
Before the hour of school.
The girls took music lessons, Jim,
Upon the spinning wheel.
And practiced late and early, Jim,
On spindle, swift and reel;
The boys would ride bare-backed to mill,
A dozen miles or so,
And hurry off before ’twas day,
Some forty years ago.
The people rode to meeting, Jim,
In sleds instead of sleighs,
And wagons rode as easy, Jim,
As buggies now-a-days,
And oxen answered well for teams,
Though now they’d be too slow,
For people lived not half so fast,
Some forty years ago.
O, well I do remember, Jim,
The Wilson patent stove,
That father bought and paid for, Jim,
In cloth our gals had wove,
And how the neighbors wondered
When we got the thing to go,
They said ’twould bust and kill us all,
Some forty years ago.
Yes, everything is different, Jim,
From what it used to was ;
For men are always tampering, Jim,
With God’s great natural laws.
But what on earth we’re coming to,
Does anybody know ?
For everything has changed so much,
Since forty years ago.
AN AIM.
Give me a man with an aim,
Whatever that aim may be.
Whether it’s wealth or whether it’s fame,
It matters not to me.
Let him walk in the path of right.
AnJ Keep his aim in sight,
And work and pray in faith alway,
With his eye on the glittering height.
Give me a man who says,—
“ I will do ‘something’ well,
And make the fleeting days
A story of labor tell.”
Though the aim he has be small,
It is better than none at all;
With something to do the whole year
through,
lie will not stumble or fall.
But Satan weaves a snare
For the feet of those who stray,
With never a thought or care
Where the path may lead away,
The man who has no aim
Not only leaves no name.
When this life is done, but ten to one,
He leaves a record of shame.
DIFFICULTY OF RHYMING.
W e parted by the gate in J une,
That soft and balmy month,
Beneath the sweetly beaming moon,
And —wunth, hunth, sunth, bunth—
(l can’t find a rhyme to month.)
Years were to pass ere we should meet;
A wide and yawning gulf
Divides me from my love so sweet,
While—ulf, suif, dulf, mulf—
(stuck agin ; I can’t get any rhyme to gulf.
I’m in a gulf myself.)
O, how I dreaded in my soul
To part from my sweet nymph,
While years should their long seasons
Before—hymph, dymph, ymph—
(l guess 111 have to let it ge at that.)
Beaeath my fortune’s stern decree
My lonely spirits sunk,
And Ia weary soul should be,
And—hunk, dunk, runk, sk—
(that will never do in the world.)
She buried her dear, lovely face
Within her azure scarf,
She knew Id take the wretchedaess,
As well as—-pars, sarf, darf, harf-and
harf; (that won’t answer, either.)
Oh, I had loved her maay years,
I love her for herself;
I love her for her tender tears,
And also for her—welf, nelf,helf, pelf!
(no ! no! net for her pelf.)
I took between my hands her head,
How sweet her lips did poach !
I kissed her lovingly, and said—
Bouehe, ntouche, louche, ouch !
(not a bit of it did I say ouch !)
I sorrowfully wrung her hand,
My tears tkey did escape,
My sorrows they coaid not command,
And I vm bnt a—sspe, dape, fape, ape.
(well, perhaps I did feel like aa ape.)
I gave to her a foad adieu,
Sweet pupil of love’s school;
I told her I would e’er be true,
And always be a-dool, sool, mool, fool.
(Since I come to think of it I was a fool,
for she fell in love with another fellow be
fore I was gone a month.)
LITTLE CHARLIE.
The following pretty little poem,
says the San Francisco Post, is from
the pen of a girl of thirteen:
Oh, mamma, put the baby dewn
And take me up instead,
My face and throat arc awful hot,
And something burns my head.
Tlease let me come into your lap,
And lay it on yeur breast,
For I feel awful tired now,
And yet I cannet rest -
Don’t put me into bed alone,
I will keep very still,
So that the baby sweet can sleep,
Oh, mamma, yes I will.
Mamma, why don’t you love me now,
Since baby has come here ?
You never kiss me any more,
Nor eall me Charlie dear.
Do you suppose if I’se to die
The same as Cousin Ben,
When his little sister eame,
That you would love me then ?
Last night when I’se alone in bed,
I laid and cried and cried,
And then I went to sleep and dreamed
That I had truly died.
I thought you shut me in a box,
And said that you was glad,
For ever since the baby came
I’d been so awful bad.
Don’t, mamma, don’t, don’t put tne
there,
I’m afraid, the moon’s so white,
Please, mamma, kiss me as yon used,
And keep me here to-night.
Tho tearful, plaintive voice is still;
No sobs came from the bed.
And when the mother looked again,
She found her Charlie dead.
