THE DEATH MARCH OF THE SCOURGE. A Deserted Village—Greeneville Deso lated—The Cause—Panic in Cnatta-* nooga—Reports from Other Points. In reply to the first question I asked after I left the cars at the Greeneville depot, a citizen told me “the town had twelve hundred inhabitants two weeks ago, and just before the outbreak of this sickness; but now there are hardly three hundred, all told—death and fear have produced the notable difference, and are still actively lessening the numbers of the few who remain.” All trade had stopped, except, a very limited traffic in food, bec&ttge*b£4he meagre quantity for sale anddiiwpecuniary inability of much the largest proportion of purchasers to buy all they needed, and no opportunity money with which to pay for f except very constant labor by tlwv.apothecaries dispensing medicines. Tim men and women fthq heretofore easly obtained work and the pay for it each day, and had no care for the mor row, cannot now find opportunity to earn money, and either go hungry or are sup plied by a more fortunate neighbor. A very few of the citizens remaining have moderate pecuniary or property ability, and have had and now have the onus of feeding and paying for issued to a considerable proportion of the in habitants who have remained with them in the infected town. Why all this sadness? Why the deso lateuess presented by a deserted town ? Why the abandonment of houses and property, and of business, and of the pleasures of home ? Why have the law yers put aside their dockets, the officers of the corporation put off their insignia of office, and gone where they can have no authority, . laid down their working have all the avocations of sHliflßded-ip Greeneville except tire rapid, anxiofetpassing from house to house of thedodfors, the steady, persevering, but wearied nmniflblations of the apothecaries and the undertakers in the mournfully silent performance of their office—burying the dead ? The answer is plain; and though the results are sadly .disastrous, the cause is sim ple. The eftmens of Greeneville are reaping the reward of reliance upon self, when, in Qtt, they counsel. , They have “.played with edge tools and have been woiuuUd.” They han dled poietai’ as-though it__was a sweet morsel, and death ha^-cone. More - than a quortqtfpf Vcentnry ago an immense pit in the very centro of the toww**Rv a clbaca erected over it with capacity sufficient for the accommodation of the entire commu nity during all these years. A very short time before the eruption of the disease by which the town has been de populated, an energetic (!) citizen in geniously emptied this pit, and had the contents wagoned through the town, and spread upon the face of a hill on the northwest verge of the corporation, the contents from the pit spreading over a very considerable surface of wet ground, exposed for several days to a fiery snn. Then there occurred the heaviest rain that any citizen of Greene ville had ever .witnessed. It was the eastern afiih uA slope of the hill on which tlio ctepd it viw mnde ; and f»i course the wash of the hill was into and through the town. The heavy wash of this rain carried all the surface soil from the hill, and as the water covered an area equal to three-fourths of the corporate extent of the town, the debris from the pit which it fairly divided, if not dissolved, was distributed to just so much of the surface of the ground. The consequences are seen and read of all men, in the hearts that have been rent, in the cl sed dwellings and busi ness houses, in the forsaken streets, in the absolute desolateuess of the town of Greeneville. In the overflow several wells were contaminated, the waters of which, of course, are poisonous now, but outside of the there is no reason to believe the water of the town to be otherwise than pure. The cliactß of the town are without pits and are all built upon a natural or artificial drain or sewer, communicating with a creek that passes from a northwest point, run ning east and then south through and on the edge of town, and soon entering and passing through farms more or’ less contiguous to the town. The stock on these farms drink the water of this stream from Greeneville, and as far dis tant as five miles from town, and on this stream cases of the disease have eecur red. In no instance of occurrence of the disease in Greene county has itjbeen dif ficult to demonstrate a direct or indirect contact with Greeneville atmosphere and Greeneville water, contaminated by human fmcal matter. Ohattanoooa, July 4. —The total num ber of deaths for Wednesday should have been put at eighteen, and for Thursday at twelve. Nearly every case of yesterday can be traced to some im prudence in diet. The greatest mor tality has taken place where the lime stone rocks are near the surface. Twen ty-seven coffins were sold yesterday— four for whites and twenty-three for colored people. Six deaths are report ed this morning. Chattanooga, July s.—The total deaths here during the past forty-eight hours number 27 —fifteen on tlie 4th and twelve on the sth ; cholera killed 7 and other causes 20. Os these, 3 were white and twenty-four colored. All the cholera cases were colored. This in cludes the forty-eight hours ending at 8, p. m., to-day. Dalton, July 4.—A case of cholera here to day. Mr. Robert Lindsay, form erly an employee of the Western and At lantic Railroad Company, left Chatta nooga yesterday morning, was taken at 4, p. in., and died at 10 o’clock last evening. His brother is now sick with the disease. Several bad cases of cholera morbus in town, but none have so far proved fatal. Twenty-one deaths occurred in Nash ville on Wednesday—eleven cholera and ten of other diseases; eight cholera deaths and five from other causes on Thursday. The Robertson Association has been disbanded, and the physicians employed by the city and county dis charged. Business is reviving, and the refugees and country are coming iu. The epidemic is considered over in the City of Rocks. But it is worse in the surrounding towns. Nine deaths in Murfreesboro on Monday. Four deaths in Greeneville. Among the recent deaths was that of the wife of Dorsey, the tailor who occupies ex-Presidont Johnson’s old shop. Only six or seven white fami lies are lelt in the town. Ex-President Johnson has so far recovered as to be able to flee wiih his family. Twenty-four cholera deaths up to the Ist iu Lebanon, and ten cases under treatment. Twenty-two deaths in Good lettsville up to the 3d—eight white and fourteen colored; two deaths inlßelevue on the Ist, and five in Nashville. The disease rages fearfully at Shelbyville; not less than two hundred cases and forty-six deaths had occurred up to Thursday. At that time nine colored persons awaited burial. In short, the epidemic is abating in Memphis and Nashville and extending, with unabated AUGUSTA, GA., TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 8, 1873. violence,to the lesser towns of the State. The Louisville papers sq'uarely ac knowledge that the man with the black valise has arrived. The disease prevails at Franklin, Frankfort, Bowling Green and all along the Louisville and Nash ville Railroad. The cholera rages fearfully in Hunts ville. A great many people have left—- the rich ones for the springs, and the poor ones for the mountains. Four deaths have occurred in Birmingham. The alarm was subsiding at the latest account. THE STORM KING. Further Details of the Disaster iu the West. Cincinnati, July 6.—Advices from Maysville, Ky., state that a severe storm visited that seotion yesterday, unroofing many buildings, uprooting trees, blow ing off chimneys and doing great dam age to the crops. The Harking Valley, iu Ohio, is mandated, the water being higher than was ever known before. Six miles of canal are gone between Athens and Selin. The damage to the crops amounts to over a million of dol lars, aud the salt works aud other com mercial interests are suffering greatly. St. Louis, July 6.—The storm reach ed Hannibal, Mo. Three houses were prostrated, and mnch damage done to crops and fences. Milwaukee, July 6. —Reports from Fon du Lac state that the storm dam aged grain throughout Green Lake, Fon du Lac and Sheboygan counties to a great extent. Its course from north west to southwest was about five miles wide, along which space grain, trees and fences were thrown to the ground. In Fon du Lac city many build ngs were unroofed and a vast number of large shade trees were uprooted. Hundreds of acres of grain were prostrated along the course of the storm. The reported loss of life on Elkhart Lake proves to be. false. Aside from the disaster at Green Lake, it is a remarkable fact that no lives were lost as far as heard from. The damage to the telegraph lines is be ing rapidly repaired, and communica tion is now open to St. Paul. A heavy storm passed over Minnesota yesterday, but no damage was doue. Cincinnati July 7. -Reports from all .quarters more than confirm the damage by the storm of the past few duys. The calamity covers too much ground for telegraphic details. Here is a sample : In Hancock county, Illinois, barns and farm houses were blown down and two children killed. At Augusta, the Chris tian Church was levelled, and the steeple of the Presbyterian Church was pros trated. A grain elevator was blown over, houses were unroofed, and mnch other damage done. A lady and child and the ladyls sister were killed at Warsaw, Hli nois. THE CENTENNIAL. Philadelphia, July 6.—The follow ing is the form of a note addressed by the Secretary of State to representa of foreign Governments iu the United States : * Department of State, ) Washington, July 5, 1873. f / Sir— l have t!#Konor to onci\: ftho information Sa the CL. >— copy for tno rrnlKiuUirs proclamation, * announcing the time and place of hold ing an international exhibition of the arts, manufactures and of the products of the soil, proposed to be held in the year 187 G. The exhibition is designed to commemorate the declaration of the independence of the United States on the one hundredth anniversary of that interesting and historic national event; at the same time to present a fitting opportunity for such display of the re sults of the art and industry of all nations as will serve to illnstriate the great advances attnined, and successes achieved in the interest of progress and civilization during the century which will have then closed. In a law provid ing for the holding of the exhibition, Congress directed that copies of the proclamation of the President, setting forth the time of its opening and the place at which it was to be held, to gether with such regulations as might bo adopted by the commissioners of the exhibitions, should be communicated to the diplomat.c representatives of all nations. Copies of those regulations are herewith transmitted. The President in dulges the hope that the Government of will be pleased to notice the subject, and may deem it proper to bring the exhibition and its objects to the attention of the people of that coun try, and thus encourage their co-opera tion’ in the proposed celebration ; and he further hopes that the opportunity afforded by the exhibition for the inter change of national sentiment and friend ly intercourse between the people of both nations may result in new and still greater advantages to science and industry, aud at the same time serve to strengthen the bonds of peace and friendship which already happily sub sist between the Government and peo ple of and those of the United States. I have the honor to be, sir, with the highest consideration, your obedient servant, [Signed] Hamilton Fish, Secretary State. A BABY MURDERER. A Colored Child Murders a Colored 4 Babe. Vicksburg, Miss., June 2d.—Probably one of the most anomalous murders in the annals has just been perpetrated in our vicinity, the murderer being a child six years old. A few miles from this city, at a place called Dalkeith, there lives a colored family on the plantation of one Mr. George Humphreys. This family has one child, a boy of about six years, as above stated, who has been a general favorite among the colored peo ple, and is, withal, very sprightly aud precocious. Petted by his parents and caressed by the neighborhood, he seemed to have entertained a lively sense of his own privileges, and was jealous if ho saw any particular attention bestowed upon a juvenile acquaintance. Lately a little stranger, a baby, colored like him self, was introduced to his house, and drew much of the attention of the family from him. The little six-year old made several demonstrations of disapproval at the favor showed to his baby friend, and consequently now and then fell a victim to some wholesome castigation. This ex asperated him the more, and he secretly nourished in his bosom a vindictiveness that had a tragic termination. The day before yesterday his parents went out to the field to work, and he was left in the house while the baby was asleep in the cradle. A horrible thought at once struck the little fiend, and he went out, returning with a large stone, which he oould carry only with difficulty. Stand ing over the cradle he dropped the stone several times on the baby’s head, batter ing the skull fearfully, and producing death on the instant. The young mur derer, conscious that he had done wrong, drew the dead body from the cradle, dragged it to the woods, and secreted it among the bushes. Return ing to some of his playmates he told them,/‘Lln»e_ I tilled Dohnny,” and bn;to the place, of conceal ment, where the little innocent luy, pre senting a most ghastly appearance. The parents, of course, were naif distracted, but the litflo fellow talks over the mat ter with tlie air of one who had per formed a gi'lluut deed. THE TURF. Latest Prom the Chicago Meeting.

Starving Act of Self-Destructiou by a Young, Beautiful auil Aristocratic HUUftw—Bad Sifcue iu a is oral Dis trf'c of North Carolina. HtWißoaotTGH, N. C., July I.—One of tfat saddest anil most startling cases of fatale suicide, caused by remorse, that -ver occurred in Orange county took sdace on Sunday morning last, not mori. than four miles from these ancient town, the county seat. *kt that point lived Mrs. Maria Murray, an accotn plisi ed, handsome and wealthy young wide «■, whose husband, William Mur ray. ,*died of consumption about two yeai ? ago. Previous to his demise Mr. Muifty had employed ns a sort of over seer Vor “cropper,” as they are termed heitij' a man of low associations and f')*’•{ Ji desperate, character, named Whf who was married, and who re on the premises, in one of the out hoi les. After the death of her husband It*’ y array continued to employ White ‘ "ame capacity, and the latter be ''lit!VV ttn d verv attentive to the V« -% 'wurrw and her three email cinl b. Gradually an intimacy sprang up be' ween Mrs. Murry and White, which, in ess than a year from her husband’s det th, became so notorious as to occa sion Borne “scan, mag.” gossip among the neighbors, and this reaching the widow’s ears she directed White to build another house for himself at a distant point on the plantation, so as to remove any syspicions that might be entertained on account of his immediate presence on the premises. This White did, but the inti macy between him and the charming widow continued, his visits being con ducted clandestinely, but with more regularity and frequency than ever. In fact, the removal of White’s residence rather served to afford more and better opportunities to carry on their illicit intercourse. Matters had progressed in this way for some time, when rumors of her husband’s unfaithfulness and Mrs. Miirray’s intimacy with him reached the ears of Mrs. White, and a flame of jealousy was kindled in the mind of that lady, who, besides being low bred anil ignorant, is a virago and termagant of the most npproveil order. Her tongue set going once the scandal soon became widespread, in consequence of which the aristocratic young widow experienced the deepest mortification. This feeling, however, soon gave place to one of fiery indignation, and Mrs. Murray, pistol in hand, marched to the house of Mrs. White and threatened summary ven geance if she did not desist in using her name in such a scandalous connection with her (Mrs. White’s) husband. But the widow found she mistook her woman, for Mrs. White, instead of being at all intimidated, flung back in the widow’s teeth all the charges she had previously made with increased vehemence, and then and there dared her to put her th teats into execution. Completely non plussed and backed down, the widow hail to pocket her pistol and retire in a state of utter discomfiture. From the date of this encounter the illicit relation of the widow and White, which before was only a mere rumor, became an es tablished fact, and the deepest regrets were expri ssed upon all on sides that a lady of such high social standing, so young, beautiful and accomplished, should fall a victim to the wilds of so degraded and disreputable a character as White. The sequal and crushing consequences, however, of her downfall were yet to come. Some two weeks since, and about two months after the scene with Mrs. White, it became fearfully ap parent to the unfortunate widow and her paramour that she was pregnant, and this so alarmed them that they were driven almost to their wits’ end to devise some means by which the evi dence of their guilt could be concealed. Look which way they would there was no escape from the prying eyes and talkative tongues of their inquisitive neighbors, and at last, in sheer despera tion, they decided upon the horrible plan of producing an abortion, thus add ing an infamous crime to their previous guilt. White at once procurred drugs, which he gave to Mrs. Murray, and, the expected result being achieved, they were so far successful. But the end was not yet reached. From that moment the’ fallen young widow became ap prehensive of exposure, arrest and im prisonment and the victim of the most poignant remorse. So terrible was the stings of conscience that she made fre quent attempts to take her own life, and she had to be constantly and closely watched. In the meantime White fled the country, for he would most assuredly have been shot by some indignant rela tive of Mrs. Murray’s had he remained. This made her more wretched and fearful still. She first tried lsudanumn to put an end to her existence, but was detect ed by a brother-in-law iu time to save her. The same relative foiled her in an attempt to cut her throat, and a third time she was caught in the act of try ing to hang herself. It was now abso lutely necessary that some one should be constantly with her, and a strict sur veilauce was maintained over her. On the night of Saturday last she retired with a Mrs. Brown, a neighbor, both occupying the same bed. About two o’clock on Sunday morning Mrs. Brown awoke and missed Mrs. Murray. She at once gave the alarm, and, a light being procured, search was made for the missing woman. After looking every where else they at last went up stairs to a garret, where, horror-stricken, they beheld the body of Mrs. Murray sii'j pended by a hank of yarn from a hr j. in the wall. If she had been cut down at once she might, in all probability, have been resuscitated ; but the ter rified inmates ran for the neighbors, and before assistance arrived life was extinct. She had stood one foot upon a chair, the other on a box, and when she had fa -tened the yarn to the hook and around her neck she dropped be tween the chair and box. TAR DROPS. Wheat crop turned out badly in Wilkes. Mrs. Stravhom is postmistress at Hillsboro. The people of Wilmiugton excurtcd to the sea shore on tjie 4th. The last vestige of small pox has dis appeared from Wilmington. Several small frame houses were de stroyed by fire in Charlotte Saturday. Bluff Mill is a new post office in Cum berland county, at Beaver Creek Fac tory. Watermelons are worth #1 25 each, and peaches sixty cents a dozen in Char lotte. Major J. C. Mann has assumed entire control of the Evening Post, of Wil miugton. There are run now some twenty-five turpentine stills, of at least $r20,000 pro duct apiece. Four thousand bales of cotton, worth a quarter of a million dollars, were made in Richmond last year. The Robesonian newspaper has been purchased by W. W. McDiamul, brother of the former proprietor.

The Liiver! o • ' ‘'Y A FEW WORDS FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE MILLION! ~ O A DISORDERED LIVER is the sourco of a largo majority of tho ills with which tho liiuß&u family is afflicted. There is no organ of tho body, the normal functions of which arc so essential to health. Upon its healthful action depends the proper assimilation of tho food and drink which supports and mffirishes tho body. It is therefore evident that a de rangement of its functions must entail disas trous results upon tho entire system. A MLIOUS STOMACH. The bile is the natural cathartic of tho bowels into which it passes just below the stomach, being conducted there by its produc ing organ—l he liver—by a pipe cailod a duct. No bile properly belongs to tho Htomach ; but if it is excessive in quantity, or viscid or thick in quality, or if the uowels are obstructed or costive, then it Hows back into tho stomach, causing iiAusea, retching and vomiting of yellowish, green, or even black bilious matter, This is commonly called “bilious stomach,” “ bilo on tho stomach,” or a “bilious attack.” Sometimes this condition is comparatively mild, but of long duration; or it comes and goes according to varjing circumstances of diet or health. In such cases there may bo only a headache and sickness at the stomach, with an expectoration of bitter phlegm, but usually, alho, tho whites of tho eyes becoiuo yellowish, and the complexion loses its fresh, healthy color. Many jiersons live for weeks or months in this condition, and at length Dys pepsia, with all its train of distressing con comitants, is fully dovelop6d. Bick lleauacho. Flatulence, variable appetite, dullness ami drowsiness, dizziness, bitter taste in the mouth, dryness of tho throat and internal heat, pal pitation of tho heart; sour stomach, with a raising of tho food ; a bloated or full foeling about the stomach, which is often attended with pain and tendemoss; colic paiirn ; consti pation of tlio bowels, alternating with attacks of Diarrlnce ; Tiles, nervousnesss, coldness of the extremities; dullness, alternating with hot flashed, low spirits and gloomy forebodings. This frightful catalogue of diseases invariably follow a deranged state of the liver, and it be hooves every ono who would enjoy lifo to adont prompt measures for its restoration to healthy notion. For‘this purpose Mercury, in the form of Calomel or Blue Till, is the medicine usually resorted to. This poworful drug, though for the time helping .the liver, does no lasting good, has to bo resorted to more and more frequently, and proves in the end more dan gerous to the system than the disorders it is intended to subdue To obviate this difficulty, physicians have for a long time sought for a medicine that would act sjiecitically on the livor, restoring its nor mal functions, and at the same time be exempt from the dangerous effects of mercury. TheU* research has at last bet-11 rewarded by the dis covery of vegetable substances which, when properly combined, exert a must powerful heal ing influence upon that organ. It is justly styled tho most Important triumph that Phar macy ever achieved. These substances aro contained in a concernral d form in Dr. Tull's Vegetable Liver Pills, Which canHOH them to act with wonderful cer tainty and rapidity in relieving and curing the diseased liver and those distressing maladies which attend it. YVhile they aro active and searching, they are mild and gentle in their action, and can bo taken by tho most delicate person. Thoy produce neither nausea, griping or debility, nor require change of diet or occu pation. By tlio timely use of these Pills much pain and suffering may ho avertod, and life, which was before a continuous misory, may ho ren dered happy by the restoration of vigorous health and sound bodies.
