That the complete restoration of the patient after having taken one grain of strychnine—one of the moat subtle and powerful vegetable poisons known—waa owing to the skill, prompt action, and very valuable remedy employed by the attending physician, no candid or unbiased mind will deDy. Annexed isjtbe patient's own statement, which will be read with interest: Ilaanmnran, November 2-, 1871 "Tbe f i|M *h.* led me to commit the rash net of which I am abont to give an account can be of no particular internet, and omitting all allusions to motives, and making no attempt at axeam, I will simply state tbe circumstances of rha oaae, whioh I think may be of interest to those engaged in tbe advancement of medical sciance. I am induced to do this at the request of my friend and physician. Dr. E. H. Coovar, with the asaorance that tbo oaae ia a remarka ble one, likely to attract the attention of tbe medical profession everywhere. “On tbe morningof November 20, 1871, at about 11 o'clock, I swallowed nearly, if not qnite, one grain of strychnine, which had been in my pomcesion since tbe 6tb instant. I was sitting on tbe side of tbe bed in the aooond-story back room, in which apartment I have slept since I have occupied the bouse. I took tbe powder, dry. from tbe paper, and held it in my mouth until it bad beoomemoiatenod with spittle,when I swallowed it; walked to tbe table and drank a glass of water, went info the room over the kilebea, and hid the paper in which the poiaon bad keen, and then went down stein, where I took a neat in a rocking chair fa front of tbe atova. In tbe course of live minutes I began to feel alight cr an pain the calves of my logs. My wife was sitting by tbe table, sewing, and I asked her for a couple of crackers, which she gave me. The oraiupe had by this time in creased in intensity, and extended to the feet and thighs, causing the most intense pain. I asked if there was an egg abont the house, and being answered in the afllmalive, told my wife to broak it and give it to me raw. She then suspected that I had taken nomethiag, and be gan questioning mo eloaely abont it “I expected soon to be in eternity, and thought that no human power could avail to save my life, so I told her what I had done. She imme diately raised an alarm, and Mr. John lloyer came in, followed by several other neighbors. The egg was'given me, besides a large quantity of warm salt water and strong tea, and a mes ganger waa sent for Dr. Coover. “Abont the time I called for tbe egg I at tempted to rise from the chair, bnt fell to tbe floor with convulsions in the lower extremities, which became violent on the lcaat attempt to move, and the feet were drawn in towards eseh other, beoomiog stiff and immovable save aa tbe occasional convulsions shook them, I'nsuoces*- fol attempts were made to bathe them in hot water, each effort to raise me bringing on a vio lent paroxysm, in the last one of which 1 tbongbl my jaws bad become unhinged. I was now per. fealty paralysed from tbe hips down, and snf feting tbe moat excruciating pains, which be gan to extend upward— the muscles of tbe sbonl den and neck soon being considerably convnls ed, the fore arms still being free from pain. “I now bade my wife “good bye.” and pre I sired for tbe final straggle, which I knew mnat be near at band, as I had become rigid from the stfk (loirs, save the forearm. The convulsions of the muscles were beoomiap fearful, and the torture awful to endure. And now oamc on a tremendous oouvulaion. My hands were drawn to to my aides, with the fingers drawn apart, and slightly bowed, and the jaws became rigid. I felt myself raised aa if by aome mighty power, immovably, with only my feet and head touch ing anything. I heard some one say, “It ia all over with him!” and felt something like a black J. H.

I could (sal my heart fluttering like a wounded bird, and my brain beating and throbbing with an irregular motion, aa though at every beat it would burst from its confinement Every joint was locked, and every drop of blood seemed stanated. I remember thinking it eonld not be long thus, when I mnat have lost eonacious- “I remember nothing more nntil I felt a sen sation of relief, aa thoogh the garments of death, which had been drawn over, were now being drawn back. Those terrible cramps seemed to be descending towards my lower limbs. A sweet feeling of relief stole over me, and I began to be again conscious. Taming my haed—of whioh I now bad command—I saw Dr. Ooover kneeling at my side, pouring medi cine into my month from a apoon, and spoke to him, remarking: “Mere is the man that can aare me,” or words to that effect “I waa now free from cramps aa far as the hips, and waa folly conscious of all that waa go ing on. I could feel the cramps receding before the antidote, and leaving the limbs free from pain until after the aeeood dose waa adminis tered by the doctor. From that time I resumed coorokmauesa, when I waa entirely free from crump, with the exception of a little in the feet I was then moved into an adjoining room and plaoed upon a pallet feeling comparatively comfortable. I had but one attack of cramps afterwards, which waa immediately relieved by e does administered by my wife—the doctor having left for a abort time—and when be re turned I felt that the poiaon waa completely centralised. “I have since felt no return of cramps or oonvulsiona, have had a good appetite, and eonld be out of bed were it not for the soreness of the muscles, caused by the intense pain to which they were subjected" [Aigtod] The following ia the remedy which waa used ia the oaae referred to.

(] le demands upon newspapers became yearly more exacting—t] vc c .\-p ou ses of publication increase and concentration of capital and labor b 0 come more indispensable, so, we arc glad to say, our circulation and influence increase with equal steps. The former have multiplied more than tenfold in the last twenty ycai's, and the circulation and busing of the Telegraph and Messenger have increased in the same propor tion. We rejoice to believe that in no section of the United States is there a i*)wspapcr possessing a more complete occupation of its pecu liar field of circulation than do the various editions of the Tei,ec,r\ph and Messenger, within that whole region of country to which it can carry the earliest intelligence. Its circulation in gross we suppose to be not exceeded by that of any newspaper in the Carolina*, Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi, with perhaps a single exception, hut its cir culation in its appropriate and particular field, is without an approxi mating rival. These are the circumstances and this the condition which make the Telegraph and Messenger such a remarkably good Advertising Me dium. There is scarcely a family or individual doing business with Macon, within a radius of two or three hundred miles around the eitv, who does not read the paper, so that an advertisement in its columns reaches all eyes. The Macon merchant can scarcely add a greater publicity to his business, among people who can trade with him, after he has advertised in this paper. The Northern or Western merchant or manufacturer can rely on the fact that by advertising in this paper he will address the whole mercantile, professional and agricultural population of this large area, and need go no further for that purpose. We are frequently in receipt of testimonials from advertisers of all classes as to the peculiar value of this newspaper as an advertising medium. And we are ready to place these advantages at the disposal of the public on the most reasonable terms compatible with our expenses ami circulation. Our policy is to encourage advertising by moderate charges; but it must be obvious to every man of common sense that we cannot multiply copies of advertisements by thousands, for the same price that others can furnish them by scores and hundreds. This point is better understood in the great commercial centres where ad vertising is valued and paid for precisely according to the scale of cir culation—where one paper will be cheerfully paid three dollars a line and another five cents a line for the same advertisement, according to their measure of circulation. The first furnishes paper, press-work and circulation for a hundred thousand impressions, and the latter perhaps for a few hundreds. The contracts have all the difference which exists between a pound and hogshead of sugar ; but both, it may be, print and circulate a merchant’s address to the public for less than half what a corresponding number of circulars or handbills would cost, which could have no other circulation than they might obtain from a range of limited personal acquaintances and mere fugacious personal efforts. There can be no cheaper or better method of ad vertising than through the columns of a popular, widely circulated newspaper, which by long liabit.and association has become the daily source of information to all within the scope of country which fur nishes the trade of its commercial centre. All other expedients to communicate with the people are comparatively inefficient and value less. We place the Telegraph and Messenger before the public, as a certain, popular, and unrivalled medium of advertising communica tion with all that part of Georgia and Alabama which looks to Macon for its market or for the earliest news.

November 21, 1871. Is an immense sheet, 38x52 inches in size and containing fifty-six col umns. It is designed to contain a full and connected history of (lie week, and although its great size is complained of by some, yet wc find the whole space essential to the grand design of the paper. A family in possession of this paper need be ignorant of no important event in the world’s current history, or miss any important idea or discovery of the times. In State news it covers the whole ground and gives all current events of importance in every county of Georgia. It also furnishes an invaluable original summary of foreign news—and gives the latest market advices from every commercial point. This paper is a universal favorite of the Georgians who have emigrated to Texas and other distant points, and in this way its cir culation is coextensive with the United States and is, in fact, scattered over foreign countries, We feel that so invaluable a paper, large as its circulation is, has never yet attained the full measure of its deserts, Will not its readers everywhere interest themselves in extending the sphere of its useful- With tbe approaching yea* - we enter upon the canvass for the m Presidency—an event fraught with momentous results to the South, and which cannot fail to awaken absorbing interest among the people’- The progress and conclusion of this grand event, wiH be chronicled with par dcular care by the Telegraph and Messenger, and all the questions and facts which affect its result will receive very caretui at tention. j We hope all our readers and patrons, old and new, will assist us in increasing the circulation and usefulness of all our editions.
