On our return from a short visit
to Atlanta a few days ago, we had
the satisfaction of learning that not
a single passenger occupied a berth
in the sleeping cars—and there were
two of them attached to the train.
We heard that two splended Lucas
cars were expected in Atlanta on
Saturday last. Prince Pullman has
endeavored to show that the Lucas
car is an infringement upon his pat
ent. The Scientific American says
it is not so. Mr. Lucas studied very
closely to avoid an infringement up
on the Pullman Palace Sleepers, and
he has succeeded, and indeed has
made a veryj decidel fimprovement
upon them. We presume however
the old hog will succeed in dragging
Mr. Lucas into the courts with the
hope of wearing him out, but we pre
mise from vim of the mem
bers of the Southern Company for
the manufacture of Lucas’ cars, he
will find it an up-hill job. From
what we understood Pullman has a
contract with the Southern roads
to draw his coaches in the rear of
such passenger trains as he wishes
to attach them. Mr. P’s contract
can still be carried out and he can
be elbowed off with his nigger coach
es, by the company’s placing a Lucas
car immediately in rear of the pas
senger coaches, and putting the Pull
man to the rear of them. Of course it
is no guess work to say which car
will be occupied at night by Southern
people. This we heard was the plan
proposed. We guess it will not take
long to satisfy the Pullman compa
ny, if they have to pay the Southern
rail road for hauling their empty
cars.
“A Georgia Republican” writes
to the New York Times : No intelli
gent man can remain long in the
South and not learn that the “irre
pressible conflict” has not wholy en
ded. It is a great mistake to sup
pose that the leaders of the slave
power will not attempt to control
the labor of the negroes because
slavery has been abolished. The
name lias been abolished but not the
thing.
If that “Georgia Republcan”
means to say that negro slavery is
not abolished, and if he is telling
the truth, what becomes of the
claims of the Republican party on
the gratitude and allegiance of the
negro? After all the work of
sword and fire, the expenditure of
treasure, the ruin of the material
prosperity of the fairest and hap
piest portion of the world, after all
the boast and brag,the drum beating,
flag fl.yiug ana praaing—is tiie ne
gro still a slave ? If eo, was any race
ever oo bciDoieu, and was there ever
so much ado made about nothing
on the lace of the earth ? We are glad
to say, however, that we believe the
“Georgia Republican” is only lying
and in trying to tell a damaging
falsehood upon the Democrats and
Southerners, uttered one more dam
to his ow T n party. Slavery in
the sense he evidently meant, it is
truly dead, and the Republicans
are entitled and welcome to what
ever credit the fact, with all its con
comitants may reflect upon them ;
but yet it is true in a practical way,
that the negro is still a slave. He
changed a master who gave him
bread for one who gives him a stone,
and sometimes a heavy one; a mas
ter who gave fish for one who offers
him a serpent, and one that stings.
The stone may be a fine looking
thing feeming like a jewel, a pearl
of great price. It has the name of
Liberty— but it cannot satisfy the
negro’s hunger nor that of his fam
ily. The serpent of power is a slip
pery gift, and is armed with danger
at both ends. It must be held with
vigilance and caution, and charmed
with elaborate attention. Does the
privilege of holding it forth like
Moses’ magic rod, a glittering scep
tre, and an emblem—does it pay the
holder for the trouble and anxiety
its custody implies? The negro is
yet but a tyro charming his wound
erful snake. All his charms are
taught him by wily adepts. He
dares not do but as they dictate. He
cannot enjoy his beautiful jewel for
taking care of his serpent. The
curse of Canaan is indeed heavy.
The balloon “P. T. Barnum,” in
charge of Professor Donaldson, left
Boston,with Messrs. Gilliam, Downs
Ford, Childs and Hognel on board,
and within seven minutes reached a
height of 3,200 feet, the highest point
obtained. The balloon passed almost
directly southwest, and the towns
they passed over were Brookline,
Needham, Charles River, Mary’s
Milage, Dover, Medway, West Med
way, Hollister, South Milford, Men
don, Ballingham, Mellville, North
Smithfield, Burreviile, Oakland and
Gloucester. At Melville, R. 1., the
ieronauts had a narrow escape from
being entangled in a runaway team,
and at 9 o’clock a rough landing was
effected among the apple trees in the
orchard of Mrs. Nathan Page, at
Gloucester, R. 1., fifteen miles from
Providence.
Doing the Handsome Thing.—
George H. Price, the express messen
ger who killed the robber in his car
on the Pittsburg and Fort Wayne
railroad a few days since, has been
voted one thousand dollars gold by
the board of managers of Adams Ex
press Company. Also, it is stated
two thousand dollars per annum to
the Expressman’s Aid Society has
been voted to be paid to the heirs of
deceased members who die in the
service of the company.
MOKE GOOD WORDS FOR TIIE
SOUTH.
Ihe Rev. C. 11. W. Stocking has
been enlightening the people of Chi
cago about the condition of affairs in
the South in a very able lecture en
titled “Two Weeks in the South.”
His views seem to harmonize with
those of other prominent gentlemen
who have lately visited and publish
ed the result of their observation in
this section. He claims that going
as a Christian minister, and having
no political or partisan ends to serve,
he had the advantage of being re
ceived on a cordial and sympathetic
footing, and consequently the best of
opportunities lor understanding tlie
real feeling and true condition of tiie
people. He thinks that much of the
trouble and poverty has come from
the bad governments which haveb een
foisted on many of the States by po
litical adventurers through the help
of ignorant negroes. He says: “Chief
among the miseries of our Southern
brethren, and connected with them
as their efficient cause, is the politic
al misrule under which they have
groaned and suffered for the last few
years.” The picture which the rev
erend gentleman draws of thefirst in
troduction of the negro into the po
litical arena, his experience with the
ballot, his awakened ambition and
avarice for office and spoils, his ap
pearance in the halls of legislation, is
graphic and instructive.
He shows that the Southern people
are earnestly striving to better their
condition ; that they are loyal and
industrious and look forward to the
future hopefully. Mr. Stocking closed
his lecture by saying the Southern
people are misunderstood by their
Northern brethren ; that they accept
the results of the war without men
tal reservation ; that they are the
friends of the negro, and that the two
races are necessary to each other.
There is a wicked Irish member in
the British House of Commons by
the name of Biggar,who has no over
powering reverence for the reigning
family. The other evening he saw
the Prince of Wales enter the
Grangers’ gallery of the House and
comfortably seat himself to hear the
discussion on a matter in which he
was deeply interested,a bill to prevent
the deterioration of the breed of
horses. The cruel Biggar pointed
his home rule finger toward the place
where the Prince sat and gravely
remarked, “Mr. Speaker, I espy
strangers.” The Speaker’s duty was
imperitive under the rules, so the
Prince of Wales, in common with all
the other disgusted strangers and de
lighted reporters, had to stand not
upon the honor of his going, but go
at once. There was a lively discus
sion after the doors were closed, and
the obnoxious rules w r ere temporari
ly suspended, on motion of the Pre
mier, that the Prince might hear the
horsy talk.
WHO ARE THE PERJURERS ?
The testimony in tne great Diwh
lyn trial shows conclusively that a
number of witnesses have committed
perjury, but precisely who the per
jurers are is a very complicated ques
tion.
If Mr. Beecher has testified truth
fully, then Mr. Tilton, Mr. Moulton,
Mrs. Moulton, Deacon West, Broth
er Bowen, and Mr. Janes have all
sworn to lies; and, vice versa , if they
have told the truth, then Mr. Beech
er has committed perjury.
If Mr. Tilton has sworn to the
truth,then not only Mr. Beecher, but
Bessie Turner, Essayist Tracy, Oliv
er Johnson, Sam Wilkeson, Mrs.
Palmer, the negro Woodley, and all
the witnesses who have sworn that
they saw Mr. Tilton walking with
Mrs. oodhuil in the Ilossel proces
sion, have sworn falsely.
If Mr. Moulton is not a perjurer,
then, besides convicting Mr. Beech
er, he convicts of perjury Essayist
Tracy.
The same issue of veracity is made
between Bessie Turner on one side,
and Mrs. Bradshaw, Mr. Richards,
and Mr. Martin on the other. It is
also made between Martin and Tra
cy, and between Woodruff and Tra
cy.
Mr. Bowen, too,comes and square
ly contradicts under oath,Mr. Beech
er, Mr.Claflin, and several other gen
tlemen.
It fairly makes one’s head ache to
try and unravel the tangle.
Avery interesting discovery has
lately been made on the Espuiline
Hill, Rome. Not far from the walls
of Rome at the period of the kings
the workmen have uncovered a sol
id wall covered with votive inscrip
tions, in which an allusion is made
to the worship of Jupiter, hitherto
unknown, and the name of a city
is mentioned unheard of before. The
greater part of these votive inscrip
tions appear to have been made by
soldiers of the Fifth and Sixth Le
gion, which were probably encamp
ed in the “Castrum Pretorium,”
Other inscriptions appear to belong
to native citizens of Dalmatia. The
excavations will continue till this
wall, probably forming part of a tem
ple to Jupiter, shall have been com
pletely exposed. These inscrip
tions, for the most part well pre
served, will be placed in the museum
of the Capitol. A small statute
of Jupiter, without head, has also
been found.
A corps of men, composed of such
stuff as ex-Post-master General, Cres
well, R. M. Corwin, et id omne genus,
have written a complimentary letter
to Laudelet Williams, tendering him
a banquet, but Williams had thegood
sense to decline. We are not aston
ished that such men as Corwin
should endorse Williams, it verifies
the adage “birds of a feather will
flock together.” Dick is a man who
does not thoroughly understand the
rules which construe meum and tumn,
and this we know to our cost.

HOME TESTIMONIALS.
A C’aiieer Nine Years Standing ttured by Dr. Con>
uangliton.
Dr. Connaughton—Dear Sir:—ln accordance with my promise, voluntarily made, I will
jive you the result of your treatment performed on a cancer located on my face, near my left
nostril.
Near the corner of my mouth, I had a cancer which had been coming for nine years, gradually
extending over my face, and I was greatly annoyed with painful apprehensions as to its alarm
ing ravages. I called on you, who took it out with but slight pain, comparatively a pin scratch.
It was dressed as you directed, and within six days dropped out by tiie roots. The operation
was performed with skill, dexterity and judgment', and i feel grateful to you for your success.
The place healed rapidly, and now, after two years, it sill remains well ami sound,'and scarcely
perceivable. I can, with confidence, recommend your treatment to the afflicted for any of the
specialties you profess to cure.
Very respectfully, your friend,
W. H. CRITTENDEN.
Holly springs, Miss, March 31, 1870.
We certify that, at the request of Major Crittenden, we examined the cancer before he placed
himself under Dr. Connaughton’s treatment. It was about the size of a silver dollar. Dr. Con
naughton cured the cancer as he promised, and proved to the world that cancer is curable.

I)r. Connaughton— Dear Sir: Itgives me great pleasure to be able to certify to the successful
treatment you prescribed for my deafness. J cannot find language to express my gratitude. My
organs of hearing had been afflicted lor a good many years, occasionally so bad that I could
scarcely hear the loudest noises. I felt very much depressed and disceucerted, lor I was fear
fully apprehensive that I would lose my hearing ‘entirely. I placed myself under your trea
lnent. You have removed the impediments and restored my hearing as perfectly as could be
desired. 1 pray heaven that you may enjoy a long life, and be instrumental in the hands of
Providence in restoring the afflicted to health and happiness.
With regard, vour friend,

LUNG DISEASES. [Extract from a letter: ]
Dr. Connaughton, ot New Orleans —Dear Sir: Seeing that many of your patients have thought
proper to make public the successful treatment of their cases, and as'l am lrequently asked my
opinion ol the mode of treatment pursued by you, I therefore think 1 cannot uo beUer than act
as I have seen so many do before me, aud publish a short card relating to my case, in this lam
actuated purely by my gratitude, and hope that my letter may not only open the eyes of those
suffering as 1 was previous to seeing you, but that it may he a source of satisfaction to yourself.
For several years I have been suffering from asthma, complicated by several other annoying
ailments; I was much troubled with cough, expectorated yellowish matter; and was losing botn
health and strength. My appetite was miserable, and my sleep was much disturbed; but what
troubled me most was a constant shortness of breath and oppression in the chest. In this state I
consulted you, who, after a careful examination of my chest, gave it as your opinion that I
could be cured, and 1 accordingly placed myself under your care, and in oiie mouth from the
time I commenced your treatment, you dismissed me as cured, and I have felt like anew man
ever since.
Hoping that these few lines may be themeans of helping others who are troubled with lung
diseases, by giving them renewed hope, and letting them know where they can get the reliel
they are so much iu need of, (like myself one moutn ago.) Yours truly,
A. J. BARNES.
From 11. llolsliousei*, Esq., Coviuglon, Venn.
Dr Connaughton— Dear Sir: Having suffered severely' from a throat affection, with a pre

WONDERFULL CURE—HOME EVIDENCE—FROM SOLOMON COTNER ESQ., A
RESPECTABLE MERCHANT OF TALLAHASSEE, FLA.
Tallahassee, Fla., Dec., 2, ’72.
P. Walter Connaughton, M. I>.,— My dear Sir—l consider it a sacred duty to render you
my sincere acknowledgements for the marvelous relief you have effected in my wife’s case,who
lias been afflicted with a Chronic Female Disease in its worst form for several years, and will
mention that my only objeet; in rendering you this statement is to call the attention of suffer
ers to your extraordinary method of vegetable treatment, and beg them to lay aside their prej
udices to try your skill, and he cured like my wife has been. I cheerfully give you this testi
mony. and hope it will con v ert sceptics. The characteristic symptoms of my wife’s case arc as
follows: Several months ago she took cold, was suddenly attacked with a complication of dis
eases peculiar to females; we tried all sorts ot patent medicines and expended considerable
sums of money with out any benefit. When you came to Tallahassee and promised us a cure,
I confess my confidence in its success was very small indeed, but I am thankful to an All-wise
Providence for tiie happy deliverencc, and am anxious that others, who are similarly afflicted,
should be made acquainted with these facts, and at least give you a trial. If they do lam sure
they will bless the day and thank me for this statement.
My wife has been under your skillful treatment only eight days. She is eomparitively well,
and your remedies, have effected everything you promised with very little medicine, and your
medicines are harmless, effectual and immediate. Your “Herb or Vegetable System” of treat
ing disease is the most harmless, quick and perfect ever brought to my knowledge.
Dr. O. has always shown himself to he a perfect gentleman in my family.
Believe me, with the kindest regards, to he yours trulv.

treatment,and now lam truly thankful that I did so,for the diseased part,through the prompt and
efficient action of your remedies, entirely disappeared, and my face is now smootlie and per

appearance of my tace since a cure has been effected, and now all are satisfied that a cancer is

A Cancer of 17 Years’ Standing Cured by my
Treatment.
Hickman, Ky., 1868.
I hereby certifiy toat 1 have been afflicted with a cancerous affection on my nose for the last
seventeen years. It first appeared as a small scab, which, after an indefinite period of time
would drop off, and re-appear slightly enlarged.
