Mr. Algernon S. II i-fridge, a promin

died at his residence on Tuesday night
about 11 o'clock, after a serious illness of
several weeks. Ills condition was con
sidered critical a week or so ago, and
hence the announcement of ills death
was received with more regret by bis nn-
erons acquaintances than surprise. Mr.
Ilartridge was a brother of lion. Julian

grees from the First district in Georgia,
and wiv< a gentleman of great means and
prominence in the business community.
Few men were belter known, but the ab
sence of the requisite data concerning

lustily for the bill. Congressman But-
fingtOD, a staid old Puritan member from
M s«aa mu setts, crossed over to Cook and
shook bis hand, remarking : “Gen. Cook,
I thank you for your vote. When one
from the South who occupied so distin
guished a place there as yourself joins in
this patriotic spirit, it is peculiarly re
freshing.” Phil bowed blandly, but a
merry twinklo in his eye e.auaed the
crowd surrounding him to listen for his
reidy, which came out enthusiastically :
"Not at all, sir, not at all, for, Mr.
Buffington, by , Bir, I never go*ack
on a rebel and a slaveholder I” A peal
of laughter followed the sally, and Speak

Tbe Rise In the Mississippi.
JlKMTins. April 4.—The report of tho
City Engineer of New Orleans, in refer
ence to tho overflow, is discredited by all
here who have paid any attention to the
subject in yeara past. But little is
known in reference to the exact Height
or other statistics of the floods provious
to tbe establishment of tbo signal ser
vice; but from the fact that the water at
this point is within nino inches of tho
highest water known and one inch above
the flood of 1874. and fen inches above
that ot last August, coupled with tho
state of tho water in the lakes, bayous
and Isgoons, as well as all the tributaries
below'being bank full, ail old river men
concede that we will havo a flood equal
to any previous one, as the river at Cairo
is now thirteen inches higher than last
August and several feet higher at St.
Louis, and none of the volume coming
down will be expended in filling up the
St. Francis, White, Arkansas, and other
rivers. • ■
The bottom opposite this city is flooded
back to Madison, and trains on the Little
Rock railroad arediscontinued. Many per
sons living in tho bottom have been com
pelled to move out to the hills. It is
feared a large amount of 9t-ock has been
lost. Planting ia at a stand still, and the
bottom plantations will suffer heavily in
fences and forage. Between Mound City
and Marion, Ark., skiffs have been sub
stituted for hacks, in order to carry tbe
mails and passengers.

Editors Telegraph and Messenger: I see
published in your paper of last week a
decision of the Supreme Court of Geor

I desire to state, fer the benefit of my
friends and my brethren of the Primitive
Baptist church in the State, that I was
not the plaintiff in the above stated case.
I do not now nor ever have owned a lot
of land in Monroe county. I do not
know the gentleman who was the plain
tiff, nor is he a relative of mine. I have
not taken a homestead, nor do I intend
to, aa my rule is to pay my debts, or sur
render my property to my creditor*. I
understand that a good many of my
friends and brethren think that I was the
plaintiff. Wnl you, therefore, oblige me
by publishing the above ."

engagement, was secured by tne man
agement, who agreed to give him
liberal portion of the receipts during a
week’s performances if ho would abstain
from drinking. This proposition being
agreed to, Hamblin, to make assurance
doubly sure, locked him up in ttte dress
ing room and put the key in his pocket.
Mr. Actor becoming exceedingly drysum-
moned the call boy to the outside of his
door, and shoved a bank note to him
through the key nole, with Instructions
to get a soda bottle filled with brandy, and
also purchase a clay pipe, tie was to do-
liver the goods soon as possible, and keep
the balance of tbe change. In good
time the boy returned, and asked for
further instructions, he was directed to
insert the stem of the pipe in the key
hole, then fill the bowl with the fluid
saying, as he was bound not to drink,
that he would smoke and take the con
sequence. That evening Hamblin was
astonished to see the celebrated actor
half seas over, but as he acted his part
so well, he regulated the future smoking
so a* not to materially interfere with the
engagement.

The Flying Fish.
One pleasant, sunny day I was sitting
on the deck of a ship that was sailing
along the edge of that warm ocean river,
the Gulf Stream. Soon the water was
tossed about at a great rate, and a poor
little Ssh flew out of the watcrland landed
on tho deck in trying to escape from
another very ugly looking fiih called
the dorado. This small fish has its fins
very much lengtnenei, so that they form
a kind of wings. They are very thin
and gauay—very delicate, and become
dry very quickly, and then are of no
use. The fish trie* to escape its enemy
by swimming, but when liable to be
canghtflie3 into the air, where there are
sometimes great birds ready to eat it.
So tbe poor thing ha3 a hard time—en
emies on every side. When the sun
shone on its wings and body it showed
many fine colors. After looking at it a
while, I threw it into its ocean home,
hoping that no great dorado would ever
catch it.—Our Dumb Animals.
Hia Indian Exterminator.—“ I tell
yer I’ve ’ranged to fix them blasted In
juns, if they try to raise my hair,” ex
claimed a Black Hills adventurer, leaning
against a Chicago depot the other mom-
ing.
“ How’s that ?” asked a companion.
“You’ve beam of dynamite, haintye?”
continued the first speaker.
“ Yes.”
“ Wal, I’ve got some of the dern stuff
shaped inter a ’nfernal machine to wear
up here under my hair, an’ I’d jest like
ter see any dammed red skin ’tempt to
lift my scalp!’’
“ But if it should go off—?”
“ It would blow the Injun ter—”
“ I mean what wonld become cf yonr
head,” pat in the other.
“ Blast if I ever thank of that,” replied
the would-be dynamite fiend ; ard then
he continued thoughtfully, “I reckon I
won’t try to wear the deuced thing, after
all.”—Chicago Journal.

The contract made for lighting the town
of Liverpool during the year 1819 was
thrown void by the mi ^placing of a com
ma in the advertisement, thu-j: “The
lamps at present are about 4 050, and
have in general two spouts each, composed
of not less than 20 threads of cotton.*’
The contractor would have proceeded to
furnish each lamp with th- a d twenty
threads; but this being but half the uau-

TIKE SIMMONS’ LIVER REGULATOR
Do not neglect so sure a remedy for this repul
sive disorder. It will also improve your appe

JUST TRY IT ONCE I
Many persons, from eating too

Major of Engineers, in service of Khedive of
Egypt, says: Some years ago I whs seriously af
fected with chronic nervouw dyspepsia to 1
an extent that my health was much impaired.
So rapid was tho advance of this insidious 1
plaint that I soon felt that ray constitution
broken. After suffering lor several years, I was
advised to try Simmons’ Liver Regulator, but
declined, because I had conceived it to bo “only
patent medicine.” At length, believing it oould
do no harm, I yielded. In a few months I be
came not only relieved, but absolutely cured,
and for two years past I have been thoroughly
restored to health and the enjoyment of life. 1
look upon the “Regulator” us a most excellent
medicine, and will always have it by 11m t<» re

your ever blest medicinal Regulator, I ara now

ITO* RAMSm A T-IIMa,
T IIR nndersignod inaugurates his forty-first
year of pmctioa as a MediciJ Progressionist
— his thirty*lift h iu Macon—by tho announce
ment of a virtually now science that for some
time has been developing under his hands, de
nominated by him Medical timiesmotism. be
cause it is by endoamoso he introduces his reme
dies into tho circulation. This enables him to
adopt a new.route ti tho liver and lungs, and
gives hhn a direct means of medicating tne sa
tire substance of titcso important organs. It also
makes possible a pervasion of the entire capillary
system by unchanged medicated substances
through whose agency tbo dead and broken down
tissues can be eliminated, und renders compara
tively easy the purification of the living organi
zation. winch is wally of much moreeonsequenv©
than simply purifying the blood. This method
renders tho blood itself subservient to the gen
eral purpose, at d makes it tho messenger that
carries tho remedy wherever needed anti ihe ve
hicle that brings back the dead matter to be
ejected from the body.
THIS NEW ROUTE
is by tho portal vein, tho only direct lino between
the stomach and the liver which heretofore has
not been specially utilized m tho scientific treat
ment ot disease, and as compared with that by
the convulotions of the intestines, tho reooptac-
ulum chyli, and the thoracio duct is as tbe light
ning express of modern improvement to the slow
coach of departed centuries. This route to
which he has adapted lus therapia enables him
to dispense, in u great measure, with even the
concentrated crudities of the schools, while it
gives him control of tho operations in the great
work-liouso of the body, the canillarios where
nlono that body is built up, and where too it is
consumed. # The fires of life arc fed in the capil
laries, and it is thero they are extinguished, for
in them wo literally “die daily,” and in them are
re-created, for outside of them a single particle
of fleshly substance cannot be elaborated from
tho blood in man or beast. Everything in its or
der and for its own use, showing the most perfect
system in tbo works of creation, the digestive
system for the manufacture of blood, tho vascu
lar for its conveyance or transmission, while in
the capillaries alone is elaboration and organiza
tion possible.
AND THOSE CAPILLARIES,
a labyrinth of vessels, so minute and hnir-like
that five thousand of their diameters would
hardly make an inch, yet into which every' drop
ol arterial blood—itsel! composed of millions of
microscopic globules—is mode to enter, and pass
ing along conies in contact with worn-out tissue,
dissolve* it, supplies its place, and aided by tho
absorbents brings it to tbo veins, tho sewers ot
tho body, into which it pours, no longer the
bright, pure pabulum of life, but tho dark, foul
stream, loaded with every impurity of whose
production the death of tho tissues is capable,
i*tt>sing tli * various dcjuirators this mass is ren
dered capable of nutrition again—is again sent
to the capillaries for elanoration, ana with it may
bo sent tiio various therapeutic agencies, useful
in clearing the way nn l eliminating tho matters
that, if allowed to remain would make perma
nent obstructions. With free capillary action
there is health invariably; but if from any cause
these minute vessels become benumbed, con
stricted or collapsed so that tho dead matter can
not be forced through and out, then we have dis
ease, tho whole varied phenomena of fever and
inflammation may be presented, but cannot be
cured till these channels aro reopened for the ex
it of tho dead and tho freo entrance of tbo life-
giving pabulum again.
IF THESE OBSTRUCTIONS BE LOCAL,
slight effort of nature, au acceleration of the
heart’s action propels tho b tod against them
and they aro removed—the inflammation thus
produced ends in resolution. U tho obstruction
be more permanent, suppuration results; if im
manent and extensive, gangrene or death of tho
part.* will bo tho consequence. If these obstruc
tions be general, fever sets n as the natural ef
fort to remove them; if successful, perspiration
is lhd. ced an*l quiet is restored to tbe circulation;
11 the effort fails or is thwarted by ignorant or
presumptuous interference, death may result, or
a quasi kind of life in tile shape of chronic dis-
ea-c, in which nature adapts herself to thecon-
ditiun ana makes tho most of it. Should these
•lions exist it* tho body or capillaries of
sr ilion thero in induration, or. perhaps,
ation; if in the subsianco or tariguinoua
capiliurios of tho lumrs, hepatisation, tubercles
ami consumption follow; if in the muscles and
joints, rheumatism, in the brain, nt urulgia, man
ia, eta Those cuj.illary impediments may bo
said emphatically to bo the pets of
ANTIPHLOGIST1CISM,
for when they occur, nothing is allowed to touch
or come near them, and if nature makes an effort
for their removal, sh*-is put in chains at once.
Id she impinge the blood against them with
mi fwire as in fever or infi.-wnm irion, tho
pou rot the fira-t i.-v arn'sh-d or paralyzed by
sedatives ortho blood itself withdrawndirectly
by tho lancet, or its elements indirectly by’ hy-
percatharaio. Should their presence cause pain,
aa they oaturally do, the powers of narcotization
aro invoked, the sensoriuru is paralyzed and sen
sation deadened, that these obstructions may
I, • t • M/orl-ioiy at conimodated. A little stimulus
might aid in their removal, but that is strictly
rot. 1 b;lt «1, an.-tiling m,»y bo done to, artd
suffered by the systtin, tho life itself jeopar
dized or lost, as it hns been millions ol times in
medical history, rather than disturb for a ino-
ment tue.se obstruciions, that hut for the falla-
ious ideas that have governed the medical world
for centuries, would have been commanded by
common sense to be removed at once.
ECLECTIC ISM, THE MODERN SORT,
withdraws no blood directly, deals largely in se-
'ation, affects veraturn voride, strv chnino and
. rustic acid and their congeners, ali of wliick
tend to depress tbs' life power and prevent the
heart from exerting much if any force within the
capillaries, 'i homsuinsm. pure and simple, exer
cises great relaxing power upon tbe percpheral
capillaries, but its therapia is by many deemed
objectionable, and il has besu found in practice
somewhat deficient where those of the interior
are involved : hence tho necessity of (tending a
$eaichcror solvent to the innermost bodily re-
cesser, where lodgements exist to change and
bring them forth.
This is the chosen work of
MEDICAL ENDOSMOTISM, .
and when its agencies, easily taken, are properly
selected, they do it effectually. When these ob
structions exist in tire liver no precious time is
ost in vain efforts to remove them by endeavors
to effect that viscus by the introduction ot agen
cies, throu-li its eumnetory or cutlet, that
scientific mode (r) is left to allopathy and its
congeners, the liver regulator men, but its en
trance is availec of by the route ol the portal
, and its action stimulated und enforced in a
potential and intelligible way. In like manner
when iu the substance of the lungs it would be
waste of time to attempt their removal through
le air cells, because until toe lung breaks down
then- can bo no outlet for them in that uirection,
the dead end worn-out matter of th*: luti*r cannot
be got ita of by expectoration. Allopathy J»ro-
i nothing else, and of course Tails in every
I*. 1 ure < .ui-.uinptimi, : ht-urh by her he-
ireairoent cf pneumonia millions of wises of

of Kndosmoiic medication by the portal vein
are of vast importance here, and thenosaibililiett
» the future, if nut alrea<ly a hieved, embrace a
rtaiu remedy for that fell disease by the elimi
nation of such injurious matters as have hereto
fore been allowed.W fester in their lodgments
without the shadow of un effort being made to
ject them. In such cases, and indeed in every
lOf
CHRONIC DISEASE,
well selected Endosmotics give great advantages
end are freely availed of by the undersigned in
his extensive administrations. His long exi*j-
n -nce enables him to judge w ith correctness as
to What ia needed, and hi-* intimate knowledge
of the remedial agents of all tchools, makes it
