Tub Chronicle and Sentinel says: Mr.
W. F. Herring, of this city, has in bio
possession an interesting document in
the shape of letters patent granted to
Hodgen Holmes, a citizen of Georgia, on
the 12th of May, 179C, for "new machine
ry called tho cotton gin.” This was
three years after tbe invention of the
first gin by Whitney. The document
I-ears tbe autograph signature of George
Washington, President; Timothy Pick-
ering. Secretary of State, and Chos. Lee,
Attorney General. Tho signature of
Holmes is attested by Seaborn Jones and
W. Urquhart. Tho letters were signed
by the authorities at Philrdelphia in the
year of our Lord one thousand seven
hundred and ninety-sir, and of tho inde
pendence of tbe United Statos the twen
tieth.
Tor same paper says: A frightful ac
cident, resulting in the death of a col
ored man named Andrew Dubose, oc
curred at the waste factory of C. W.
Simmons A Co., at the corner of McCar-
ten and Bay streets, yesterday morning
at hftlf-paHt nine o’clock. Andrew had
been employed at the factory for three
years, and was about nineteen years of
age. At tbe time named above ho went
to the cleaning machine, which was then
idle, and got on a small step ladder in
order to adjust the bolting which ran tho
machine over tho wheel. In a moment
he was caught by tno bolt nnd whirled
upward, where his head was jammed be
tween two revolving cast Iron wheels anil
iu an instant mashed completely out of
shape—tbe brains and blood spattering
over a large space of tho wall.
Wbdnmday afternoon, says tho Atlan
ta Times, a certain railroad omployo was
arrested by a United States Deputy Mar

ed letter. Tho matter will doubtless
come up for investigation before a United
States Commissioner to-day.
Tub Constitution, of yesterday, says:
In his charge to tho grand jury yoster-
day Judge Peeplss'laid peculiar and im
pressive emphasis upon tho necessity for
suppressing the sale of intoxicating li
quors to minors. He stated that between
daylight and sun-rise yesterday morning
a noble and loving mother had come to
him to beg him to use his efforts to stay
the rum thus being accomplished. She
left un almost maniac son, raving in his
iraduess, and made so by tbe nse of
liquors thns sold to him, to make this
appeal. J udge Peeples spoke with great
feeling and his words went homo to tho
hearts of all who heard him.
Tub Atlanta Commonwealth says: Two
United States prisoners were taken from
the city yesterday by Deputy United
States Marshal Simpson, their destina
tions being respectively tho State prisons
of Maryland and Now York—one to the
Utter prison for two years for the crime
of robbing the mail.
Tub two items which follow aro from
the Savannah Press of yesterday t On
TuesdAy evening last a young man fell
asleep on the steps of the old barber
shop on the corner of Bull nnd Bryan
streets. Ho was nwakened from his
slumbers by somo cno pulling at his
watch chain. Before ho could thorough
ly arouse bimself the thief mado good his
escape, taking with him a valuable am
at by at pin, two shirt buttons, a pocket'
book containing eight dollars, his hat,
cravat, collar, cuffs and handkerchief.
Yistibdav morning tho men at work
near Habersham's rice mill, at the head
of Kiver street, were attracted to tho river
front by the noise of some one strug
gling in tbe water, and they immediately
came to tho aid of a drowning boy, who
had sank once. By exertions they mam
aged to drag him to the wharf, very
much exhausted. After rolling him
around for some time, the negro became
conscious and informed those around
him that he wanted to die; that his
step father had beaten him unmercifully,
and had declared that he would kill him
unless he precurred work.
Now Blaine says "I didn’t.” That is
getting to bo too common, gentlemen,
and tbe country begins to want rome
more substantial proof of innocence.
Bxir IYade has pronounced for Mor

"Three are 60,000 Sanday-achools in

"Arabella Goddard is about to settle
California.” She has made money
enough to settle dollar for dollar, and
have a few notes left, good for more
money.
"Wendell PaiLLirasays there are thir-
ty rum-shops between his houso and the
Albany station.'.’ That accounts for his
never being able to reach that train in
time to go off.
"Between Whitley and Bell,” says
the Tribune, "Gen. Babcock has his
bands full.’’ Since they helped him fill
his pockets, why shouldn’t they fill his
hands now. Ono good turn deserves
another, yon know.
Aw exchange says “Grant has been
peculiarly unfortunate in never having
succeeded in finding a first-class lawyer
for Attorney General.” "And, yet,”
muses the melancholy Akerman, “I my
self have been in that position."
"A ladt in London has offered $500
reward for the conviction of persons who
are going about London systematically
poisoning dogs by throwing down poison
ed food in tho streets.” Probably she
wants to give each of them a medal as
benefactor of the human race.
The London Athenaum says that Lord
Lytton bos taken so seriously to politics
and tho Indian vice royalty that he has
withdrawn his new poem, "King Poppy,”
which was just about to be published.
Perhaps he found too much Poppy-occk
in it, and wants to prune it up.
The Commercial Advertiser intimates
that as the committee has “no substan
tial grounds” for charges against Mr.
Clapp, they propose to make them "on

Printer, appear to have been very tako-
nickai, then why not proceed on such
grounds. He paved them.

“A ladt,” says the Courier Journal,
tells a Washington correspondent that
she was present, during Polk’s adminis
tration, when the first attempt was mado
to feed tho hungry pnblio at tho White
House. She soys s ‘There was a rush
for the tables, of course, and a general
engagement followed, in which much
rowdyism was displayed.’ If rowdyism
was displayed by the public of that day,
how would the public of our day bobavo
on such an occasion ?” They would steal
the spoons and forks, of course, and
pocket a week's rations Desides.
Tub Commereial Advertiser thinks tho
fact that Garibaldi has accepted "a gift
of an income of $20,000 in Italian money”
should lift the pressure of censure from
the heads of American gift takers. Not
Garibalidi is not President of Italy.
He has not shown a greed for anything
in the shape of presents from a bull pup
to a Long Branch cottage. Ho never
swapped an appointment for a present.
He is not accused of selling post trader-
ships. He is not in a whisky ring. He
has been in no Credit Mobilier transac
tions. Finally, he accepts the gift be
cause it will "enable him to co-operate in
the works proposed by himself for the
improvement and draining of the Tiber.
Could anything be more unlike the great
American gift taker ?
A Uaboon Mother.
Mr. Hazely’s African Lectures.]
A woman belonging to a settlement of
about 150 souls went one day to gather
some wood, and left her child on the
ground to take care of itself. While the
mother was gone, a female baboon ap
peared on the scene, and espying the
child approached and began to fondle it.
The child was allowed to partake of the
baboon's milk, which deprived it of any
appetite for its mother’s. When the
mother returned she. noticed that tho
child was carefully covered over with
leaves nnd had lost its hunger. This was
done 'or several days before the mother
ascertained who performed the unthank
ful act. When the mother did find out
tho doer she induced the men of her
tribe to lie in wait for the baboon the
next day. Tho animal noticed the men
raise their weapons to fire, and began to
wave her hand, or paw, as if asking them
not to kill her, and, at tho same time,
pointed to a young one at her breast.
But the natives killed her. No sooner
had they done so, however, than the
male baboon put in its appearance, and,
by a load shout, summoned others of his
tribe to the spot. Then, in a body, the
animals attacked the natives and forced
them to flee to their huts for safety. One
of the baboons tracked them to their
settlement, and the next day they were
visited by about 000 baboons, who as
saulted them with cocoannts and compel!
ed them to run away from their homes.
Tno animals kept a watch over the huts
for several days and prevented the na
tives from returning to their dwellings.
The Police Magistrate at Hamilton,
Canada, has delivered a judgment that
puts him at least on a par with Solomon
in all his legal glory. Two men disputed
the ownership of a valuable carrier-
pigeon, and each produced the most com
plete evidence to establish his claim and
disprove that of bis opponent. A happy
thought struck the magistrate. "If it
is your bird,” he said to one claimant
"it will know the way home V The sui
tor replied that it would. A similar
question to the other party to the case
evoked the same reply. “Then,” said
the Court to the Serjeant, who had the
bird in custody, "let it go, and it. will
find its way home ” And the bird and
tbe case were simultaneously thrown out
of court. _
An Iowa paper nominates Gen. A. C.
Dodge for tue Presidency. It was this
same illustrious diplomatist and states
man who, when starting lor Spain, to
which country he had been appointed
Minister by Mr. Bnrhanan, entered his
Dame on the ship’s register as “ Augustus
Cffivr Dodge, formerly United States
Senator from Iowa: at present Minister
to Soain." That’s the sort of a man we

The Fnneral cr A. T. Stewart.
New York, April 13.—Great crowds
collected at an early hoar in the neigh
borhood of tho late A. T. Stewart’s house,
to witness the funeral procession. All
along Fifth avenue spectators were sta
tioned in windows and on the steps of

orderly and subdued. A small police
force in front of the residence of the de
ceased kept bock the crowd and only al
lowed those to enter the dwelling who

The procession started from Mr. Stew
art’s house about half-past eleven. The

covered with black velvet and bore an
inscription on a plate of solid gold, with
gold bandies and heavy gold fringe three
inches deep all around it. Tbe casket
was lined with white silk, Tho body

numbered two hundred carriages, and
extended a long distance. The prepar
ations at the church had been com
menced early in the morning. The floral
tributes there were a magnificent cata

and consisted of a mass of flowers.
Large crowds of ticket holders were out

and it required the utmost efforts of a
strong police force to restrain them. Del
egations were present at the church
from the Merchant’s National Bank
and the Union League Clnb.
Fourteen ushers were in attendance,
all of whom had been detailed from the

TAKE SIMONS’ LITER REGULATOR 1
Do not ncsloct ro sure a remedy for this repul
sive disorder. It will also improve your appe
tite, complexion, and genetal health.
JTJST TRY IT ONCE 1
MA5Y persons, from ontin? too
much, are restless at night, or in
daytime are fidgety, woolgather
ing, can't understand what they
read, can't keep their thoughts
on any ono subject, so as to rea
son well, or Iveomo fretful. One
or two liiMttspoortfula of Slm-
mons’ Liver Regulator will give
relief.
Mi joe of Engineers, in servico of Khedive of
Egypt, says : Some years ago 1 whs seriously nf-
fectedwith chronic nervous dyspepsia to such
an extent that ray health was much impaired.
So rapid was tbe advance of this insidious com-
plaint that I soon felt that my constitution was
broken. After suffering for several years, I was
advised to try Simmons* Liver Regulator, but
declined, because 1 had conceived it to ho "only
patent medicine.” At length, believing it could
do no harm. I yielded. In a few months 1 be
came not only relieved, but absolutely cured,
and for two years past I have been thoroughly
restored to health an<l the opjoyment of life. I
look upon the "BeguM-ar” as * most excellent
medicine, and will always have it by mo to re-
sist any insidious approaches of my old enemy. I
write this in gratitude for tho benefit 1 have re
ceived from the use of tho Regulator.—W. B.
Hall.
HEADACHE!
Unfailing Remedy tor
Sick Headache.—I havo used
Dr. Jrimraocs* Liver Regulator
in my family for dyspepsia and
sick headache, and regard it ail
invaluable remedy in tbeso at
tacks. It has not failed to give
relief in any instance.—Rev. W.
F. Esterling. P. E. Tallahassee
District. Florida Conference.
KEEPING THE SECRET!
Charlotte, N. C, April 20, 1874.—Having
been an invalid for twenty-five years, and hav
ing found relief from your Simmons* Liver Reg
ulator, I would be doing great injustice in keep
ing the secret from the public. Having taken
your ever blest medicinal Regulator. I am now
in ctjoti bodily health, thunks to this great medi
cine. I had good physicians, but they did not
relieve me, and until I was recommended to
take the Regulator I was not relieved, but
through your invaluable medicine and to the
(ii\**r of ull good I Htn this turn; indebted for my
life.—Mark A exander.
TO SA.VJE DOCTORS’ BILLS!
The D * n ( rwa) Tele
graph say*: “To 8*ve doctors*
bills and ward off disease, use
- Simmons* Liver Regulator—a
medicine that in reases in popu
larity each year, because tho^e
who use it always testify to its
beneficial effec s.”
ASTHMA!
I feel it my duty to express my gratitude for
the benefits derived from your very valuable
medicine (Simmons* Liver Regulator). I have
been afflicted with asthma for thirteen years.
About a month ago 1 was induced to try your
Liver Regulator, and procured a package and
have not finished taking, yet the effect (in so
sho*t a time) is like magic. I have gained seven
pounds in flesh, and feel stronger than ever Ins
tore.—L. Whitehead, Citronville, Mobile county,

Samuel H. Smith, nigh Point. N. C.. says:
For twelve months I have been troubled with

physicians; but nothing gave me any relief un

MORE MEDICAL PROGRESSION/
A NEW science:
MEDICAL ENDOSMOTISlU
T HE undersigned inaugurates his forty-fir^
year of practice as u Media J Progressionists
— his thirty-fifth in Macon—by the announced
ment of a virtually new science that for wonu**
time has been developing under his hands. d«**
nominated by him Medical Endosmotism. be
cause it is by endosmoso he introduces his romo-
dies into tho circulation. This enables him to
adopt a new route to tho liver and lungs, and
gives him a direct means of medicating tho en
tire substance of these iroi>orntnt organs. It ah ft
makes possible a pervasion of the entire capillai f
system by unchanged medicated substanoa
through whose agency tho de»d and broken dow*
tissues can bo eliminated, mi nil renders comps na
tively easy thopurification of the living organ : -
zation, which is really of much more consequent ft
than simply purifying tho blood. This method,
renders tho blood itself subservient to the gor-
oral purpose, and makes it tho messenger that
carries tho remedy wherever needed and the ve
hicle that brings hue4 tho dead matter to Im
ejected from tho body.
THIS XEW ROUTE
is by the portal vein, tho only direct line between
tho stomach and tho liver which heretofore ha a
not been specially utilized m the scientific treat -
ment ot disease, and as compared with that by
the conv.ilotions of tho intestines, tho receptee-
ulum chyli. and tho thoracic duct is as the light
ning express of modern improvement to the slow
coach of departed centuries. This route ta
which ho has adapted his thernpia enables him
to dispense, in a groat measure, with even tha
ooooentemted crudities of tho schools, whilo it
gives him control of tho operations in the great;
work-houso of tho body, tho capillar!os, whom
alono that body is built up, and where too it ia
consumed. The fires of life are fed in the capil
laries. and it is there they aro extinguished, for
in them we literally "dio daily,” and in them an*
ro-creatod, for outside of them a single parlicta
of fleshly substance cannot bo elaborated from
tho blood in man or beast. Everything in iu or-
der and for its own use, showing the 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
tho capillaries alono is elaboration and organiza
tion possible.
AND THOSE CAPILLARIES,
a labyrinth of vessels, so minute and hair-like
that li\ e thousand of their diameters would
hardly make an inch, yet into which every drop
of arterial blood—itself composed of millious of
microscopic globules—is made to enter, and pass
ing along comes in contact with worn-out tissuo*
dissolves it, supplies its place, and aided by tho
absorbents- brings it to tho veins, tho sowers oC
tho body, into which it pours, no longer tho
bright, pure pabulum of life, but tho dark, foul
stream, loaded with every impurity of whose
production tho death of tho tissues is capable.
Passing tho various dopurators this mass is ren
dered capable of nutrition again—is again sent
to the capillaries for elaboration, ana with it may
bo sent tho various therapoutio agencies, useful
in clearing tho way and eliminating tho matter*
that, if allowed to remain would mako perma
nent obstructions. With free capillary action
there is health invariably; but if from any cause
these minute vessels becomo benumbed, con
stricted or collapsed so that tho doud matter can
not bo forced tbrough and out, then we havo d is-
easo, tho whole varied phenomena of fever and
inflammation may bo presented, but cannot b«
cured till these channels are reopened for tho ex
it of tho dead and tho freo entrance of the life-
giving pabulum again.
IF THESE OBSTRUCTION'S BE LOCAL,
a slight effort ef nature, an acceleration of the
heart’s action propels tho b-ood against them
and they are removed—tho Inflammation thus
produced ends in resolution. It tho obstruction
bo more permanent, suppuration results; if per
manent and extensive, gangrene or death of tho
parts will bo tho consequence. If those obstruc
tions bo general, fever sets m as the natural ef
fort to remove ttn-m; 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 lifo in tho shape of chronic dis
ease. in which nature adapts herself to the con
dition anu makes the most of it. Should th.*Ho
olMiructurti* exi*b iu tU* lx«dy or capillaries of
tho liver, then there is induration, or. perhaps,
suppuration; if in the substance or tanguinous
capillaries of tho lungs, liopatisation. tubercles
and consumption follow; if in the muscles and
joints, rheumatism, in the brain, nturalgia, man
ia, etc. These capillary impediments may bo
said emphatically to be the pets of
ANTIPHLGGISTICISM.
for when they occur, nothing is allowed lo touch
or come near thorn, and if nature makes an effort
for their removal, she is put in chains at one*.
Would eho impinge the blood against them with
increased forco as in fever or inflammation, tho
power of the heart is arrested or paralyzed by
sedatives or tho blood itself withdrawn directly
by the lancet, or its elements indirectly by liy-
percatharsis. Should their presence cause pain,
as they naturally do, tho powers of narcotization
aro invoked, the sensorium is paralyzed and sen
sation deadened, that these obstructions may
be comfortably accommodated. A little stimulus
might aid in their removal, but that is strictly
prohibited, anything may bo dono to, and
suffered by the system, tho lifo itself jeopar
dized or lost, as it has been millions of times ia
medical history, rather than disturb for a mo
ment theso obstructions, that but for the falla
cious ideas that havo governed tho medical world
for centuries, would nave been commanded by
common senso to bo removed at once*
ECLECTICISM,TUE MODERN SORT,
withdraws no blood directly, deals largely in se
dation, affects veratum veride,strychnine and
prussic acid and their congeners, all of whick
tend to depress tho lifo power aud prevent tho
heart from exerting much if any force within the
capillaries. Thomsonism, pure and simple, exer
cises great relaxing power upon tho peripheral
capillaries, but its therapia is by many deemed
objectionable, and it has been found in praclioe
somewhat deficient where those of tho interior
aro involved; hence the necessity of sending a
icarcher or solvent to tho innermost bodily re
cesses where lodgements exist to change and
bring them forth.
This isthe chosen work it
MEDICAL ENDOSMOTISM,
and when its agencies, easily taken, are properly
selected, they do it effectually. When these ob
structions exist in tho liver no precious time is
lost in vain efforts to remove them by endeavors
to affect that viscus by the introduction of agen
cies, through its emunctory or outlet, that
scientific mode (?) is left to allopathy and its
congeners, tbo liver regulator men, but its en
trance is availed of by tho route of the portal
vein, and its action stimulated and enforced in a
potential and intelligible way. in like manner
when in the substance of tbe lungs it would bo
a waste of time to attempt their removal through
the air cells, because until tbo lung breaks down
there can be no outlet, for them in that uirection,
the dead end worn-out matter of the lung cannot
bo got ria of by expectoration. Allopath? 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 l>. «-n produced. The capabili-
ties of Kndosmotic medication by the portal vein
are of vast importance hegunkl the possibilities
oi tho future, if not alro«KKcb}evcd, embrace a
certain remedy for that feirmkcato by the elimi
nation of such iniurious matters as have hereto
fore been allowed to fester in their lodgments
without tbe shadow of an effort being made to
•ject them. In such cases, and indeeu in every
form of
CHRONIC DISEASE,
well selected Emlosmotics give great advantaces
and ara freely availed of by the undersigned in
his extensive administrations. His long expe
rience enables him to judge with correctness as
to what is needed, and his intimate knowledge
of the remedial agents of all schools, makes it
easy to adapt them or his own to the cawe in nand.
Using nothing that can depress tbe life power,
he has no hesitation in sending his remedies any
where on their mission of mercy and healing, and
will do so to any posto’fice in the country or .the
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 & small charge to each, rather than a
few at exorbitant rate*, 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, tile iad.aMiit j>ooi- 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-
motism, ncr be satisfied with mere blood-purifi
ers when the purification of the living tissues
themselves is within their reach.
