Sr. Louis, Only 22.—The hearing in the case of Meliier against the Bradstreet Commercial Agency continues. Meliier introduced farther testimony as to his solvency, and stated that the report published in the J uly number of the Agency's report had injured his standing. J. H. Eames testified that he had been sent for by Mr. Shepard, superintendent of the Agency, and told by him that he (Eames) could have good rating if he would pay for banting up the evi dence of his credit. This would cost from $250 to $500. Eames -refused the offer. Shepard was then placed on the stand and flatly con tradicted the statement of Eames, and said Eames offered him money for a favorable rating; that he (witness) told him he ought to be kicked out of the office for making such an offer. He never received presents, and money considera tions had no influence with him. King, whose testimony was reported yesterday, had been discharged for making an incorrect report, falsifying the index, and general disobedience of orders. King had threatened to injure the firm, and assanlted witness with brass knuckles. The rating of Meliier was based on information received from men who are regarded ■'as well versed in trade and business, and who stated Mellier’s assets and liabilities so nearly equal as to justify witness in rating him to be trusted with caution. The case excites muoh interest. Washington, July 22.—It is now supposed the loss by the explosion at the Arsenal, to day, is not more than two hundred thousand dollars.

I dream of one who lies ' Beneath Kentucky skies, Until with tears my eyss are overflowing, And I seem to hear a sound From a bloody blattle-gronnd. Where liee a little mound with grass o’er growing. Again I hear the crash Ot cannon, And tho daeh Of cavalry that flash across the valley; Bat wilder sound than all, Beneath the smoky pall 8hrills out the bugle call of ‘‘Troopers, rally!” Adown the rooky hill They gallop with a will, The bugle blowing shrill a cheery measure, Their chargers all a row, - Flags flaunting to and fro, ■ Sight on to death they go, as if for pleasure. 8hup rings the whitting steel, - ~t~ While cannon thunders peal— A shout goes up, “They reel, in yonder hollow 1” And lo! with cheer on cheer, tZ- They drive them far and near, The flying winged with fear of those who follow. Why does the bugle blow Noloudrecall? Nonote Of triumph that the foe, dismayed, is flying ? A1»e! our bugler lay Where raged the hottest fray Upon that evil day, '’niid dead and dying. ; ;'Z' . We laid him down to rest, Brave heart! where earth had drest A tree plumed hillock’s crest with floral beauty; Ah! never truer sonl Than his sped to his goal, Whose legend marked our roll, “Slain at his daty.” . A Benevolent Oddity. The following aneodote is related of the late L. M. Sargent, of Boston; Not long since, before Mr. Sargent’s decease, in looking over and adjusting his papers, he found a large numher of debts and notes due him by poor men, prineipaUy fishermen. He tied them up in a bundle, and on the label wrote this memorandum: .“Notes, due-bills and ac counts against sundry persons along shore. Some of them may be got by suit or severe dun ning ; but the people are poor; most of them have had fishermen’s lnok. My children wiU do as they think best. Perhaps they will think with me, that it is best to bum the package en tire.” . About a month after the deoease the sons met in the counting room, of the elder brother, who administered on the estate. He produced this package, read the in-oriptionand inquired what should be done with it. The next oldest brother, with tears in his eyes, pointed to the fire, and they all agreed to it; bat it, was thought best to make a schedule of the names, amounts and dates, so as hereafter to know who were for given, if any oame to pay. It was done, and the package, labeUed at $30,000, was oast into the fire. About four months after tins, in the month of Jane, a hard-faced old man from the Cape came to the store to pay a debt due. the de ceased. He took a chair, and looking over a time-worn pocket-book, drew .oat a bunch of bank bills to pay the debt. On learninjg his name; date, and amount, -viz., $440, the first Btep was to examine the list of burnt notes, and there was his name, debt, and date ot very many years ago, which with interest, if pre served, would amount to $800. The adminis trator told him the fact and made him put back his money; which he did with ©yes brimful of tears, for he Bald “his old dame had sold the only cow to. supply what was wanting in his hands to pay this debt, and what glad news it would be to her when he went home.” Tlio Great Liverpool Bocks. Liverpool is situated just within the month of the river Mersey, o deep and navigable stream, which has, opposite the city, an average width of about 3,900 feet, and a depth varying from 18 to 60 feet at low water; the rise and fall of the tide is from 18 to 33 feet. The river- wall, within whioh the docks aro looated, occu pying about five miles in longth of the bank of the Mersey. The great variations in the tido render it im possible to load and unload vessels advantage ously abreast of ordinary quay or piors in the Mersey; the somewhat exposed anchorage is too limited for the great number of vessels that frequent the port, and, were it large enough, the hca- iOBCBQg been fouadHHI^^^H | is, then, but one system applicable to such port—that of enclosed wet-docks with entrance gates. This system has been very admirably carried out in Liverpool. Commenced in 1709, the dookshave at thi3time attained colossal proportions. Omitting the Birkenhead docks and other additions since 1854, they cover CIO acres from thoshore of the Mersey between high and low water marks; the river wall pro jects from 500 to 1200 feet beyond the original shore line ; the length of qnav frontage within the'docks is 14 miles and 119 yards. The docks are bounded on the river side by a waU 30 to 50 feet high, with an aggregate length of nearly five miles. As a rule, no warehouses surround these docks, only landing sheds. The time for entering and departing from these dooka is limited to from two and a half to three honrs each tide, and as the sills of the dock are above low water, there aro more than one hundred days in the year when vessels drawing more than eighteen feet cannot enter them, and many days when only sixteen feet can be carried throngh it. A good deal of diffi culty is experienced in keeping these docks free from mud and silt. G. A. Townsend, on proceeding into one of those enrions semi-commercial temples, where twelve porcelain idols gazed down'upon a set of worshipers gambling in such august presence, laid his hand upon the chief idol, and said to a grave Chinaman: . - “What you call him ?” The obliging ' Celestial, nothing offended, answered, after a'inoment’s reflection: “Josh!” “Oh, yes, I know he’s a Josh; but ain t ha got some other name ? Ain’t he a particular kind of a Josh; an almighty Josh, an evil Josh, aWiUiamor a Henry Josh? What’s hia pre- nom"i" - . The obliging Celestial, thinking it over a minute, shook Ms head negatively, but suddenly a flood of light rushed upon Mm. “’Melikan man,” "he stud, “oall Mm sonny- pitch!” ■ V The Chinaman thus innocently expressed a great international fact ’The “’Melikan man” considers every tMng of Celestial origin—John or Josh indifferently—as the cMld of a dog. A Lono Jaunt.—There arrived at Suspension Bridge, Niagara Falls, on the evening of Jane 29, a gentleman of means—an Englishman by birth—who pnt up at the Monteagle House. He left Boston on the 14th of June (distance 520 miles,) and -walked to this place in 12 days. He takes this way of seeing the country. He carries a vaHso and contents, which weigh 50 pounds, strapped on Ms back. He says that he came from the Old Country purposely to see this country, and prefers to view it on foot, from the Atlantio to tho Pacific: that when he arrives back in England he can give a full des cription of this country to-his friends. June 30 he left the Monteagle, on Ms journey through Canada to Chicago, from there to Omaha and San Francisco—his journey’s end. He will re turn by rail to New York, whence he will tako steamer again to England. .' - Five Ways to Destroy Ants.—1. Pour copi ously hot water, as near the boiling point as possible, down their burrows, and over their hills, and repeat the operation several times. 2. Entrap the ants by means of narrow sheets of stiff paper, or strips of board, covered with some sweet sticky substance. The ants are at tracted by the Bweets, and sticking fast, can be destroyed iD often as a sufficient number are entrapped. 3. Lay fresh bones around their haunts.— They will leave everytHng else to attack these, and when thus accumulated can be dipped into water. 4. Pour two-.or three spoonfuls of coal into their hole arid they will abandon the nest. 5. Bury a few slices of onions in their nests, and they will abandon them. The tables are about to be turned, and the woman-women most be prepared to find the men getting into skirts, as a retaliation for the en croachments that women are constantly making upon the masculine style of dress. Down near Mount Pleasant, O., there may be seen at work in tlfe hay fields a number of men, whose attire ^neiata of a sMrt and a skirt, very closely re sembling a woman’s pettiooat. They wear this oostume because Christ and his disciples did, because they find it oool and easy, and because the notion that it is shameful for men to dress like women is all bosh. They anticipate a time when both men and women will dress as they pleaie. t .rtetfaa^' Decisions of tbe supreme Court of Georgia. 4XA. DELIVERED AT ATLANTA, TUESDAY, JULY 18, 1871. From tho Atlanta Constitution ] Bust, Johnson A Co. et. al, vs. Rebecca Bil lingslea et al.—Milton Creighton ot al., vs. John R. Jones et ai. Equity, from Dougherty. Warner, 3.—This was a bill filed by the ad ministrator of Billingslea for directions as to the payment of the debts of Ms intestate out of the assets in Ms hands (the estate being insolvent), including the widow’s right- to dower, home stead eta. Held, That the neceesaxy expenses of the ad ministration, including the provision allowed for the snpport of the family of the intestate, be pud oat of the general fnnds of the estate. Held, also, That the decree of tbe court bio- low in favor of Milton Creighton, trustees, eta, be affirmed as to the amonnt thereof, and being a debt due by tiie intestate as trustee, is to be paid next after.the expenses of administration and the year’s snpport of the intestate’s family. It appears from the record that on the 11th October, 18C6, th9 intestate, Billingslea, and Yason, jointly purchased from Jones the Mott and Clayton plantations, gave their joint notes therefor, Jones making a deed to them jointly for the land, and they, at the 6ame time, jointly executed a mortgage to Jones on the land to secure the payment of tho notes given for the purchase money thereof. Tho purchasers of the land, occupied it jointly for one year, then Yason relinquished his interest in it to the intestate, who occupied and cultivated the same to tho time of his death on his own acoount. Jones was no party to the contract between Ya- son and BillingsleA' ; • ' - " Hdd, That the seisin of the intestate of the land embraced in the Mott and Clayton planta tions, enffieient in law, under* the ions of the revised eoae oi this State, to entitle Ms widow to dower therein; that a mortgage in this State is only a security for a debt, and passes 7xo title; that the mortgage on the land was a lien created by the parties making it, which oarinot defeat the widow’s right to dower; that inasmuch as the mortgage lien on the un divided half of Mott and Clayton’s plantations, was not created by the intestate as the husband ot the widow, but by Yason,' who subsequently conveyed the land to the intestate with the en cumbrance of the mortgage, the widow, before she pan enjoy her dower in the undivided half of the land convey ed to her husband by Yason, with the incumbrance of Jones’ mortgage, must first discharge that 'inemnbranoe created by Yason’to Jones, the same not being a lien created by her husband but a lien wMch existed on the land at the time the husband acquired his title thereto from Vason. It is also dis closed by tbe reeord that on January 31,1868, Billingslea, the intestate, drew Ms draft in favor of Thomas Hill, for the sum of $4,322 39, payable 15th November next, after date, upon Messrs. Rust, Johnson & Co., Albany, and to' Secure the payment of that draft, the intestate, on the same day, executed Ms mortgage deed to Hill for his undivided half interest in the tract of land, known as the Hill plantation, the sum specified in the draft being the amount due Hill by the intestate for Ms share of the original pur chase money for the Hill plantation. This draft was accepted by Messrs. Rust Johnson & Co., for tho accommodation of the drawer, and paid by them as such accommodation acceptors, they having no funds of the intestate drawer in their hands at the time of their acceptance of the draft. It also appears from the record, that Rust, Johnson & Co. refused to accept the draft of the intestate, unless the mortgage was made, and that it was agreed that the mortgage should be transferred to them on payment of the draft by them. The draft was paid at maturity, and the mortgage was transferred to them on the 25th of November, 1868: Held, That, under thegeneral rule, applicable to the payment of the debt by accommodation acceptors, or securities, they would have been entitled to the transfer of tbe mortgage: most certainly they were entitled to such transfer, under the special agreement of the parties, as shown by the record, and ware entitled to the same specific lien on the Hill plantation, or the proceeds of the sale thereof, as the original mortgago, arid to have the same paid,* according to the priority of its - lien upon that specific property included in the mortgage. ' Held, also. That tho widow of the intestate was not entitled to a homestead and personal exemption ontof his property in addition to her dower and provision for her year’s snpport. ■ mi—*-—7 . —j Johnson & Co. was not entitled to priority of payment out of the proceeds of the crops made on the Mott & Clayton plantation in the years 1868 and 1869, on the statement of facts dis closed in the reoord. Held, also, That overseers, unless they are employed as common day laborers, and work as such cn the plantation, are not entitled to priority of lien for the payment of their wages under the act of 1869. Let the judgment and deoree of the court be low be reversed, and a decree bo rendered in conformity with the judgment of this court on tho questions made in the bill of exceptions as set forth in the record.

Bil lingslea dower in Ms interest in the lands pur chased of Jones, and upon which, simultane ously with the deed, and as a part of the same transaction, a mortgage was executed for the purohase money bo far as such right of dower is preferred by the judgment to the claim of the vendor under the facts in the case. > • Lyon, deGraffenreid &.

M. J. Slaughter vs. J. D. Culpepper, et al. Application for dower, from Mitchell county. . McOay, J.—Under sections 1753 and 1759 of the revised Code of this State, which provide, that a widow is entitled to dower in all lands of which her husband died, seized and possessed, and that no lien created by the husband daring his life shall in any manner interfere with the same, a mortgagemade by the husband, for the purchase money, cotemporaneously with the deed to him by the vendor, passing as it does “no title” and being only a lien oreated by the husband is no bar to her right of dower, nor is her dower subjeot to the same. • A widow is, in this State, entitled to dower in lands bargained by the husband, in Ms lifetime to a third person, tho purohase money remain ing unpaid and the title to the land being' re tained by the husband, in himself, until Ms death. Judgment reversed. Lochbane, J., dissenting —I dissent from the judgment of the Court in this case, for the fol lowing legal roasons: While I recognize dower as favored by law, and fully appreciate the force of seotion 1753 of the Code declaring the right of the wife in one-tMrd of the lands of which, her husband die3 seized and possessed;' pnd sectiou'19t4, that a mortgage in this State is only security for a debt, and passes no title;’ and also section 1859, which declares no lien created by the husband in bis lifetime thail, in any manner, interfere with the right of dower, yet I am of opinion, where the contract nnder which the land was bought embraced the condi- tion of a mortgage as the security of the pur chase money, and the deed and mortgage were simultaneously made and constituted in law one act, that dower docs not attach as against the vendor for the purohase money. The rule laid down in 21 Ga., 408, and the reasoning nf the Court appear to me conclusive of tho question. Taking the whole transaction tol gethir, it was a conditional sale, and the title never did rest in the mortgagor, ex cept enoumbexed with the debt, to-wit: the purchase money. If the purchaser, after re ceiving the deed, had refused to execute the mortgage, the contract of purchase was in complete and would be rescinded; it took both instruments to consummate the agreement of purchase. The liens wMch dower displaces are liens created by the husband on his land, but this land is not Ms under the contract without paying for it. Whilo every consideration of public policy demands that the widow should be favored in her rights of dower as to the estate of her husband, I do not tMnk she is entitled to her dower in the property of another. I am of the opinion that the contract to buy and se cure the purchase money was one—that both instruments were essential to its perfection— and being simultaneously made, had the effeot, not of lien only, but of a higher obligation, paramount to dower, in that it was the condi tion and terms of the contract by wMch the land was acquired.

Davis, - a banker of Memphis, as Baying: “ Poor New Orleans Is losing prestige. Be fore the war she imported directly from Europe. Now she depends, upon New York, Memphis, Cincinnati, 8t Louts, Shrieveport, Galveston, Mobile, and the eoast towns whioh used to trade with New Orleans now cut her, and trade with Memphis and New York direct New Or leans is dying, commercially, every day." A bot near Omaha the other day struck upon a rattlesnake near his father’s house, and as he was temporarily in charge of his little sister, he gave her the reptile to play with. Presently the snake, tired of the child’s fondling, began to hiss vioiously arid rattle. The boy discovering then Its venomous nature, snatched it from his sister and attempted to fling it away. The snake fastened about his wrist and threatened to bite. The boy alarmed his father, who was not far off, and by caution the latter sucoeededtn en ticing the reptile so that it left the boy. When killed, the rattlesnake was found to be fall grown, over two feet long, and with six rattles. A correspondent who has lately been looking into the traces of war in the environs of Paris, says that the miles upon mileB of broken and orushod dwellings wMch meet one’s gaze during a ride through Auteuil or Neuilly, or St. Cloud, compel the conviction that no one now living will see those places as they were before the siege by the Germans and the siege by the Frenoh troops themselves. But perhaps thtg opinion exaggerates the damage done. The following telegrapMo correspondence is a model of brevity and point: “Oil Regions, Jane 15,1871.

ANY a human betas bag passed away, for whose JJA death there was bo other reason than tile neglect of known and Indisputably proven means of earn. Those near and dear to taaiilj and friends are sleep ing thedreamlem (lumber into whioh. had they calmly adopted -71* .--s ©ti— OB. JOSEPH H. SCBEKCK’S SIMPLE nunoffr, and availed theswelvei of bis wonderful efficacious medicines, they would not have fallen. Dr. Schenck has in hia own ease proved that wherever sufficient vitality remains, that vitality, by his medicine* and ffia directions for their use, is quickened into health ful Vizor. In this statement there is nothing presumptuons. To the faith of the invalid is madeno representation that is not a thousand times substantiated by living and visible work*. The theory of the core by Dr. Schenek’s medicines is as simple es it is unfailing. Its philosophy requires no argument. It is self- atsering, self-convincing. The Beawood Tonic and Mandrake Pills are the first two weapons with which the citadel of the malady is assailed. Two-thirds of the cases of consumption originate in dyspepsia and a functionally disordered liver. With this condition the bronchial tube* ‘'sym pathise” with the stomach. They respond to the morbific action of the liver. Here then comes the eulminattag result, and the setting in, with aU its dis tressing symptoms, of . •*' , . ■iXZT, COSSUMPTISH. - -The Mandrake Pills are eompoeed et one of Nature’s noblest gifts—thePodophillum Feltatnm. They pos sess all the blood-searching, alterative properties of calomel, but unlike calomel, they “LEAVE NO STIN6 BEHIND.” The work'of cure is now beginning.' The vitiated and mucous deposits in the bowels and in the ali mentary oanal are elected. Theliver^likeaolook, is wound up. It arcuses from its torpidity.. The stom ach acts responsively, and the patient begins to feel tKai h« iaeattie* 1m4 - A SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD. The Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the Fills permeates and assimilates with the food. Chyliflea- tion is now progressing without its previous tortures. Digestion becomes painless, and the cure is seen to be at hand. There is no moreflatulence, no excerbation of the stomach. An appetite sets in. Now comes the greatest Blood Purifier ever yet given by an indulgent father to suffering man. Schenck^ Pulmonic Syrup eomes in to perform its functions arid to hasten and compute the cure. It enters at once upon its work. Nature cannot be cheated. It collects and ripens the impaired afid dis eased portions of the lungs. In the form of gather ings, it prepares them for expectoration, and lo t in a very short rime the malady is vanqaiahed. the rotten throne that .it occupied is renovated and madonew, and the patient,'in aU the dignity of regained vigor, steps forth to enjoy the manhood or the womanhood that was GIVEN UP AS LOST. The second thing is, the patients must stay in a warm room until they get well; it is almost impossi ble to prevent taking cold when-the lungs are dis- eased, bat it must be prevented or a cure cannot be effected. Freeh air and riding out; espeeiaUy in this section of the country in the fall and winter season, are all wrong. Physicians who recommend that conne lose their patients, if their longs are badly diseased, and yet, because they are m the house they must not sit down quiet; they must walk about the room as much and as fast as the strength will bear, to get up a good circulation o'f blood. The patients must keep in good spirits—be determined to get well. This has a great deal to do with the appetite, and is the gTeat point to gain; To despair of cure after such evidence of its possibility in the worst eases, and moral certainty in allothers, is sinful. Dr. Schenok’k personal-statement-to the Faculty of his own’eure was in these modest words: "51any years ago I was in the last stages of con- snmption, confined to. my bed, and at one time my physicians thought that X could not live a week; then like a drowning man catching at straws, I heard of and obtained the preparations which. I now offer to the public, and they made a perfect cure of me. It seemed to me that I could feel them penetrate my wholesystem. They soon ripened the matter m my .lungs, and I would spit up more than a pint of offen sive yellow m atterevery morning for a long time. As soon as that began to subside, my cough, fevtr, pain and night swoats all began to leave me, and my appetite became so great that it. was with difficulty that I could keep from eating too much. I seen gained my strength and have grown in flesh ever since." “I was weighed shortly, after my recovery,” added the Doctor, “then looking like a mere skeleton; my weight was only ninety-seven pounds;-my present weight is two hundred and"twenty-five (225) pounds, and lor years I have enjoyed uninterrupted health. Dr. Soheuck has discontinued his professional visits to New York and Boston. He or his son, Dr. J,H. Schenck, Jr , still continue to see patients at their office.

The Respirometer .declares the exact condition of the lungs, and patients can readily learn whether they are curable or not. ■ . The directions for takingthe medicines are adapted to the intelligence even ofaoktid. Follow these di rections, and kind Nature will do the rest, excepting that in some cases the Mandrake Pills are td be taken in increased doses; the three medicines needno other accompaniments than tho amplo instructions that ac company them: First creato appetite. Of returning health hunger is themostwoloome symptoqj. When itomes, as it will come, let the despairing at once be of good cheer. .-Good blood at once follows, the cough loosens, the night sweat is abated. In a short time both of these morbid symptoms arejgone forever, A Perilous Season.—Glorious and delightful as the summer weather is, its tropiosi heat is a severe trial to the vital powers. Even the strongest aro sometimes prostrated by its effects. The common phrase applied to this, condition of the body is “general debility.” Now, general debility arises from, and includes a variety of ailments. The liveris more or less affected, tho bowels are either constipated or too much relaxed, the etomsch but half performs the work of digestion, the appetite is poor, and the spirits depressed. This is what is called general dobility. It is a general disarrange ment of all the physical functions, and requires aw a remedy a medicine that will regulate them all. HoBtetter’a Stomach Bittere is specially adapted to this purpose. Its general operation is not eonfined to a single organ. If the liver is affected, it re stores its tone. If the stomach ia torpid, it regen erates it. If the nerves are tremulous and weak, it braoes and reinforoes them, - If the mind, which ever sympathizes with the body, ia gloomy and de spondent, it relieves the difficulty, and soon brings the whole mechanism of the body into harmony with the laws of health. There is no civilized nation in the Western hem isphere in wMch the utility of Hoe tetter’s Stem** 0 Bitters, as a tonic, corrective, and anti-bilion* med ‘ cine, is not known and appreciated.
