Tub same paper says: Some fellow has
written to the North that week before
last two negroes were killed in Colum
bus, and that over a dozen were taken
from their houses and severely whipped,
four of them having sealing wax dropped
upon their bodies. Thia we find in sev
eral of our Northern exchangee. The
pro« agent ha* already denounced it
as a falsehood. The statement regarding
oar city is an infernal lie. Why, a
d >rkey has not been killed in this section
by the whites since the river was dug,
unless we except one that swallowed a
pistol ball five yews ago.

Ws mentioned, a day or two ago, tho
arrest upon a requisition from New York
.of Andrew J. West, of tho firm of West,
Edwards & Co., of Atlanta, on a charge
of larceny after trust. Deputy Sheriff
Tallin an, of New York, and Deputy
Sheriff Anderson, of Atlanta, started with
their prisoner to New York, and imme
diately upon their arrival in Augusta,
West was arrested by tho Sheriff of Rich
mond county, on a charge of larceny after
trust, prefeired in obedienco to tele*
. graphic instructions from Atlanta. On
this he was held over until Saturday
morning, when West was released by the
Shi riff of Richmond county, and turned
over to Deputy Sheriffs Anderson and
Tallsian. Before the train left, however,
on which they were to proceed on thoir
journey. Deputy Sheriff Anderson re
ceived orders from Sheriff 1’erkerson to
return with his prisoner to Atlanta im
mediately.
Thb Times, of Sunday, adds i The fol
lowing special telegram from Augusta
explains the case there i
August*, Ga., April 3,187G.
Judge Snead, of tho Oity Court, this
morning dismissed tho warrant on which
West was dotained, and gave him over
to Deputy Sheriff Anderson and Tallman.
Before the train left a dispatch came
from Sheriff Porkerson for Anderson to
return with West to Atlanta, that the
writ of habeas corpus served on Ander
son in Atlanta, and which be pocketed,
was decided to be valid. The entire
party wiil return to Atlanta to-night.
West ia still in custody of Deputy Sheriff
Anderson. W. H. M.

they will reach Atlanta this morning at

Thb Constitution, of Sunday, says
Lost night Foster Blodgett came down
upon tho State road train in company
with A. L. Harris, who stopped hero.
Blodgett skipped into the A ugusta sleep
er and the porter of the car tried to re
fuse other parties admission thereto, but
without avail. Blodgett was recognized
by several gentlemen and the police
poked around uncertain what to do about
the matter. Several parties urged them
to go in and capture the great adventur
er. After the departure of tho train,
Sheriff Perkerson was notified of the
passage of Blodgett, and ho sent a tele
gram to the chief of police at Augusta
ordering the detention of Blodgett until
the arrival of on officer from Atlanta.
Blodgett has thus tried a bold experi
ment and may find it a costly one. He
is under indictments in this county and
is badly wanted.
Thb “faithful," in Atlanta, are not
unanimous. Tho Timex of Sunday, says»
For somo time District Attorney Farrow
and Jssse W. Jackson have been at dag
gers’ points with each other, and several
communications have been published in
the different papers from both parties.
A few days ago H P. Farrow published a
cord in one of tho city dailies, in which
he was pretty rough on Jackson, calling
him an infamous scoundrel, blackguard,
etc., which it appears has worked upon
tho risibilities of the said Jackson, who>
has just seen fit to take umbrage at this
’•highly complimentary” language of the
District Attorney. Yesterday Jackson
went before tho Grand Jury and pre
ferred charges against Farrow, charging
him with libel. Upon which indictment
the Grand Jury found a true bill, and a
beech warrant was issued. Last evening
the warrant was put in the hands of an
offioer to be served, but up to last ac
counts Farrow was still missing.
Thb Augusta papers of last Taesday

Thb Savannah News, of yesterday, has
the following: Mr. Charles F. Mills,
one of our ’oldest and most respectable
citizens, died at his residence on Liberty
street yesterday morning at 4 o’clock
after a brief illness, brought on by a
paralytic stroke. About two weeks since
Mr. Mills, with the view of improving
hi* health, started for New Orleans, but
on reaching Macon tbe fatigue of travel
occasioned a paralytic stroke, which ne
cessitated a speedy return home, and
since then he has been confined to his
room. The paralysis centering in his
bead, induced a serious illness, and sev
eral days since all hopes of his recovery
were abandoned, and tbe announcement,
of his death at a ripe old age, whilst it
will occasion regret in the community
wherein he moved as an honored and
useful citizen, will not be received with
surprise.
Tnx Rome Commercial, of Sunday says:
"On and after the first day of May, every
one who has no visible means of support

MURDERED ON HIS KNEES.
An Awful Domestic Tragedy In onto.
Columbus (O.) special to the Cincinnati Times J
This morning, at ten o’clock, the polioe
in the North end were startlod by tbe
screams of n woman, and, starting to
ward tbe point from wbioh the noise
came, were mot by a woman wild with
agony, who said ber husband bad shot
and dangerously wonndod her son. Upon
arriving at tbe woman's honao, tbe mur
dered boy was found lying on tho floor in
a pool of blood, with a great wound in
his side, and his father lying by bis side
kissing the face of his victim and wildly
oalling on him not Co die. Tho boy was
found to be quite dead, bat the father
would not believe il, aud, with his eldest
son, fought against being removed from
tbe F.oene of biood.
Oi leaving the bonso the man appeared
to he qiite drank, but before reaching
tbe atuiion-honse was quite sober. Tba
name of the mnrderer is Patrick Picker
ing, a laborer, who has a wifo and six
children.
The mother of tbe viotim is too wild
with grief to tell an intelligent story
about the deed, but os near ns can be
learned, it appears that* Pickering bad
been drinking liqnor daring tbe dny, and
went home intoxicated. Recently, bis
son, aged seventeen, next to bis oldest,
had offended him by keeping company
with an objectionable boy. Upon reach
ing home he oalled his boy out of bed to
apologize for his misconduct. His father
forced him to get upon bis knees to pray
and promise never to go with the ohjeo-
tionablo boy again. As soon as he bad got
upon bis knees his father took np a heav
ily loaded shot gnn, and without any
warning to the poor boy, whose head was
bowed in prayer, fired at him, the charge
passing tbrongh bis heart, killing him al
most instantly. Just before closing his
eyes in deAth ibe boy cried out, “Father,
yon have killed me!”
As soon as bo reaohed the station-honse
Pickering became wild with remorse,
wildly crying: “I’m a murderer. I am
going to commit suicide. Poor boy, poor
boy! I wish I was where he is now.”
All night the prisoner paced his oell, nwd
with remorse, but he was carefully
wnlohed to provent his committing sui
cide.
Pickering Is abont forty years old.
The dead boy is said to have been of good
ebaraoter.
Indians Rising In St Augustine — A
Plot Discovered — Cheyennes In
Irons.
Lost Taesday wo were informed by a
passenger upon the Dictator, who has
just como down the river to Jacksonville,
of a plot which was discovered among
the Indians stationed at Fort Marion, in
that city, by which a general uprising
and slaughter of the white inhaoitants
was prevented. Several of the Indians
who had been confined were to be re
leased, and then, after overpowering the
single soldier who remains in the fort at
night, they were to sally forth and mas
sacre the inhabitants, and, if possible,
the soldiers who stay at night in the
barracks, a mile distant. Fortunately,
the plot was betrayed to Captain Pratt
by one of the Kiowas, and the murderous
design frustrated ra time. Poisoned ar
rows were the weapons to be used, with
the addition of what guns could bo ob
tained.
The alarm is said to have caused many
of the visitors in St. Augustine to make
active preparations for leaving.
Since writing the above we learn from
Mr. Plump, the agent of the New York
Steamship line, that the Cheyennes plot
ted to murder Capt. Pratt, the sergeant
in the fort, and another white man, and
then escape into the city. All the In
dians were not agreed in the plot, and
one of the Kiowas told Capt. Pratt the
dtsign, and when the Indians went into
the mess room the captain had the door
secured and the Cheyennes taken out two
bv two and ironed. Mr. Plump Bays he
obtained his information from the tele
graph operator at Toeoi, and the railroad
conductor at that place.
Another story reports that a half breed
started the plot and told the Indians that
they might obtain shelter with the Sem-
inoles in the Ererglades.
The following letter has been received
from St. Augustine j
St. Acocstisk, Fli., April 4,1S76.
Asmall party of Kiowa Indians, some
fifteen or sixteen in number, coDfinedin
Fort Marion, were to-day discovered as
having formed a mutinous plot to do
some eerious mischief to those in com
mand, and to make their escape to-night.
Under these circumstances, Capt. Pratt
called in the aid ot a detachment of
soldiers from the garrison and had them
arrested and ironed and placed in one of
tbe dungeons qf the Fort. The fall de
tails. of the plot have not yet transpired,
although it is fuliy known to Captain
Pratt, who has heretofore treated them
with the utmost Christian kindness, and
given them almost unrestrained liberty.

quest that one of her majesty’s British
vessels, lying at Esquimaux, may be
despatched to seek for the Canadian
steamer Sir James Douglass, which left
Esquimaux February 22. with Mr. Gam-
aby’a surveying party for Dean’s Chan
nel. The steamer was expected to re
turn to Victoria by the middle of March.
It is feared some accident may be the
cause of her detention.

THOU AS WILLJLStiliAM, JK.,
attorney at law,
MACON, GEORGIA
\ A/ ILL practice in the Macon Circuit, and
Vf other parts of the State, by special con-
rpHR undersignod inaugurates his forty-first
JL year of practice as a Medic* J Progressionist
— his thirty-fifth iu Macon—by the announce
ment of a virtually new scionce that for some
time has boon developing undor his hands, de
nominated by him Medical Endosmotism. be
cause it is by eadotmose he introduces his reme
dies into the circulation. This enables him to
adopt a new route to the liver and lungs, and
gives him a direct moans of medicating the en
tire substance of thoso important organs. It also
makes possible a pervasion of tho entire capillary
system by unchanged medicated substances
through whose agency tho dead and broken down
tissues can bo eliminated, and renders compara
tively easy the purification of the living organi
zation, which is really of much more consequence
than simply purifying tho blood. This method
renders the blood itself subservient to tho gen
eral purpose, and makes it tho messenger that
carries tlie remedy wherever needed and the ve
hicle that brings back tho dead matter to be
ejected from the body.
THIS NEW ROUTE
is by the portal rein, tho only direct lino between
the stomach and the liver which heretofore has
not been specially utilized in the scientific treat
ment ot disease, and as compared with that by
the convulotions of the intestines, tho recontac-
ulum chyli. and the thoracic duct is as the light-
mug express of modern improvement to the slow
coach of departed centuries. This routo to
which he has adapted his thorapia enables him
to dispense, in a ^reat measure, with oven the
concentrate! crudities of the schools, while it
gius him control of the operations in the great
work-house of tho body, tho capillaries, whoro
alone that body is built up, and whoro too it is
consumed. The fires of lifo are fed in tlio capil
laries, and it is there 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 bo elaborated from
the blood in man or boast. Everything in iU or
der and for its own use. showing tho most perfect
system in tho works of creation, tho digestive
system for tho 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 liair-liko
that live thousand of their diameters would
hardly make an inch, yet into which every drop
of arterial blood—itself composed of millions of
microscopic globules—is made toentor, and pass
ing along comes in contact with worn-out tissue,
dissolves it, supplies its place, and aided by tho
absorbents.^brings it to tho veins, the sewers of
the body, into which it pours, no longer tho
bright, pure pabulum of life, but tho dark, foul
stream, loaded with every impurity of whole
production the death of tho tissues is capablo.
Passing the various depurators this mass is ren
dered capablo of nutrition again—is again sent
to the capillaries for elaboration, ana with it may
bo sent tho various therapeutic agencies, useful
in clearing the way and eliminating tlie 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 vessols become benumbed, con
stricted or collapsed so that tho dead matter can
not be forced through and out, then wo have dis
ease, the 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 free entrance of tho life-
giving pabulum again.
IF THESE OBSTRUCTIONS BE LOCAL,
a slight effort of nature, an acceleration of the
heart’s action propels tho b ood against them
and they aro removed—tho inflammation thus
produced ends in resolution. It tho obstruction
be more permanent, suppuration results; if per
manent and extensive, gangrene or death of tlie
parts will be the consequence. If those obstruc
tions bo general, fever sets m as tho natural ef
fort to remove them; if successful, perspiration
is induced and quiet is restored to tho circulation;
if tho effort fails, or is thwarted by ignorant or
presumptuous interference, death may result, or
a quasi kind of life in the shape of curonio dis
ease, in which nature adapts herself to the con
dition and makes the most of it. Should thoso
obstructions exist in tho body or capillaries of
the liver, then there is induration, or, perhaps,
suppuration; if in tho substance or languinous
capillaries of tho lungs, hepatisation, tubercles
and consumption follow; if in tho muscles and
joints, rheumatism, in the brain, nturalgia, man
ia, etc. These capillary impediments may bo
B»irl ftmnTintA^TltLlOL2i9vlb^l©fltSjQf
for when they occur, nothing is allowed to touch
or como near them, and if nature makes an effort
for their removal, she is put in chains at once.
Would she impinge tho blood against them with
increased force as in fever or inflammation, tho
power of the heart is arrested or paralyzed by
sedatives or the blood itself withdrawn directly
by tlie lancet, or its elements indirectly by hy-
percatharsis. Should their presence cause pain,
as they naturally uo, the powers of narcotization
are invoked, the sensorium is paralyzed and sen
sation deadened, that these obstructions may

withdraws no blood directly, deals largely in se
dation, affects veratum veride, stiyclinino and
prussic acid and their congeners, all of which
tend to depress tho lifo power and prevent the
heart from exerting much if any force within thc
capillaries. Thonisonism, pure and simple, exer
cises great relaxing power upon the perephcral
capillaries, but its tnerapia is by many deemed
objectionable, and it lias been found in practice
somewhat deficient where those of tho interior
are involved; hence tho necessity of sending a
searcher or solvent to the innermost bodily re

and when its agencies, easily taken, are properly
selected, they do it effectually. When these ob
structions exist in the liver no precious time is
lost in vain efforts to remove them by endeavors
to affect that viscus by tho introduction of agen
cies, through its emunctory or outlet, that
scientific mode (?) is left to allopathy and its
congeners, tho liver regulator men, but its en
trance is uvailee qf by the routo of tho portal
vein, and its action stimulated and enforced in a
potential and intelligible way. In like manner
when in the substance of tho lung9 it would bo
a waste of time to attempttheirremoval through
the air cells, because uutil the luug breaks down
there can be no outlet for them in that direction,
the dead end worn-out matter of the lung cannot
bo got ria of by expectoration. Allopathy pro
poses nothing else, and of course fails in every
instance to cure consumption, though by her he
roic treatment of pneumonia millions of cases of
that disease have been produced. The capabili
ties of Endosmotic medication by the portal vein
are of vast importance here, and tho possibilities
oi the future, if not already achieved, embrace a
certain remedy for that fell disease by the elimi
nation of such injurious matters as have hereto
fore been allowed te fester in their lodgments

he has no hesitatian in sending his remedies any
where on their mission of mercy and healing, and
will do so to any postoffice in the country or tho
world, on the reception of a letter descriptive of
the main features of the case in such language as
a patient would use to a visiting physician.
As heretofore, he proposes to treat a great
number at a small charge to each, rather than a
few at exorbitant rates, and therefore places the
amount for a six weeks’ supply at, say ten dol
lars, free, by mail. Those in limited circumstan
ces from war losses, or otherwise, will be treated
for five, the indigent poor gratuitously. There is,
therefore.no reason why any afflicted manor wo
man should not enjoy the fruits of his medical
research and labors in his or her own person, and
he trusts that none will be content to die without
testing the curative powers of Medical Endos-
motisra, nor be satisfied with mere blood-purifi
ers when the purification of the living tissues
themselves is within their reach.
