< onrtship mid Marriage; by Mrs, Ilentz.
We received, yesterday, a letter from Mr. T. 15.
I’etkksox, Philadelphia, correcting the statement
that Mrs. Hkktz is not the author of the work en
titled “Courtship and Marriage.” Mr. Peterson
- ivs “she wrote every line of it, and it was first
published by tne in 3 ->."><*. About a year since she
revised the thirteen tales in the volume, and wished
m« to get them up anew in the duodecimo style,
which 1 have done. Mrs. Hrntt’s family retain an
interest in the copyright of her works ; and how
the story first originally started, 1 know not, but
1 -oppose from some paltry rivalry.”

The commercial man of the Columbus Sun,
in noticing the advance in (he price of Cotton in
Liverpool, brought bv the late steamer, savs :
“The accounts by the America, received early in
the dav yesterday, giving a further advance of Cod.
in Liverpool, had no effect on our market. We did
not hear of a single transaction. The Baltic,
which left Liverpool on the 2fith, is now fully due.
and her accounts may he looked for to-day.
Should she also bring au advance—judging the fu
ture by the past buyers will hang their harps up
on the willows, and lay up for the season.”
It is certainly a fortunate circumstance that the
advance in Cotton was only Jpjth. If it had reach
ed one penny, this country would have been
ruined, as we could not have survived the lees**
here consequent upon the improvement of prices
and trade in Europe!
Mr. Fkancls P. Blair and Mr. Andrew J vckson
Donklson both claim (says the New York Da/,-
'Boot) to have been warm friends of Gen. Jackson,
to have been perfectly familiar with his views,and
to have shared like brothers his society and affec
tion. Now, Mr. Donklson declares that, if the
General were alive, he would he a Know Nothing;
while Mr. Hi.air as stoutly insists that, were “Old
Hickory” still living, he would he a genuine Black
Republican. This is a very strange disagreement
between two persons who knew all about Gen.
Jackson.
Yt a meeting held on board the United States

vice on the North Pacific coast, the petty officers

How They Do Things in New Yohk.—We clip
the following suggestive paragraph from the Phi!-
delpfiia Fr-ning Journal :
“ A million of dollars' worth of goods were
moved, on the Ist instant, about a mile in New
York, by a jobbing-house, in the short space of
three hours, and within a half hour after the cases
were dumped upon the sidewalk, the clerks were
busily eugaged in selling them to customers.
There is no fogyism about an operation of this
kind. The whole move was done bv eleven ol
Adams’ mammoth express wagons. They were
filled simultaneously; and firm, clerks, porters,
boys, vacated the old premises and jogged to
ward the new location, following the train of wa
gons in jocund procession. This is the wav to do
tilings, not to spend a week in tali', but to act with
energy and accomplish an object while others are
talking about it.”

Singular Effect <>l Electricity on Negroes.
Sl‘**ik. Kditora. During the thunderstorm of
last Sunday, a triend related the following:
A gentleman residing a few miles out of town,
recently carried home a small electrical machine
for making some experiments. As soon as he j
got home, the negroes, as usual Hocked around !
him, eager to see what master had got. There i
was a boy among these darkies that had evinced j
a strong disposition to “move things when they !
wanted moving,” or, in other words, to pilfer oe- j
casionallv.
“Now, Jack,” says his master, “look here ; this i
machine is to make people tell the truth, and if j
vou have stolen anthing, or lied to me, it will j
knock you down.”
“Why, master, ’ says the boy, “I never lied or ■
stole anything in my life.”
Well, take hold ot this;” and no sooner had 1
the lad received a slight shock than he feil on his !
knees and bawled out; “ Oh, master I did steal 1
your cigars and a little knife, and I have lied ever 1
so many times : please to forgive me.”
The same experiment was tried with like suc
cess on halt a dozen juveniles. At last, an old tie
gro who had beeu looking on very attentively,
stepped up. ' “ ’ 1
“Master,” said he, “let dis nigger try. Hat ar 1
masheen is well eunff to scar do children vvid, but
dis nigger knows better. - ’ ’ ,
The machine was then fully charged, and he re- j 1
ceived a stunning shock, lie looked first at his
hand, then at the machine, and at last rolling his
eyes up, “Master,” said lie, “itaint best to know j
too much. Dars many a soul gits to he damned '
by knowin’ too much* and it’s my ’pinion dat de !
■h-hil made dat masheen jest to ketch your soul a .
foul some how, and I reckon you had best jest take 1
and burn it up and have it done gone.” S.

At a meeting of the citizens of Greene county,
held at the Court House, on Tuesday, the 6th inst.,
ou the occasion of the death of the Hon. Willi am
C. Dawson, the following proceedings were had:

‘‘Our hearts are tilled with sorrow, and our city
arid count}' are in mourning. Our distinguished
and beloved citizen and friend, the Hon. William
C. Dawson is dead very suddenly at his residence
at a quarter past 3 o’clock this morning he died.
Eminent as a lawyer and statesman, kind, oblig
ing and useful as a neighbor and citizen—active
in all works of charity and benevolence ; his life,
full of energy and usefulness, was devoted to the
improvement and happiness of his fellow men.
His neighbors loved him, his comity loved him,
his State loved him, and he was beloved bv his
extensive acquaintance throughout the Union.
His reputation and character are the property of his
country.
One of the ablest and most esteemed citizens of
onr State is gone. Often has he been honored, al
ways has he been faithful.
W'e give to his bereaved family our wannest
sympathies. Wo cannot hind up the broken heart
or send consolation to the widow and the orphan.
We leave them in the hands of that Being who
hears the cry of the widow and fatherless.
That we will attend the Funeral of our friend to
morrow at ■! o’clock.

'_C'" Dr. >l’ I,line's Vermifuge Prepared
by Fleming Bros, of Pittsbourgh. During a prac
tice of more than twenty years, Dr. M’Lane had at
tended innumerable patients afflicted with even
form of worm disease, and was induced to apply
all the energies of his mind to the discovery of a
vermifuge, or worm destroyer, certain in its effects;
the results of his labors is the American Worm
Specific, now before tins public, prepared by Flem
ing Bros., of Pitisburg, which is perfectly safe, and
may be given alike to children of the most tender
age, or to the aged adult; it purges mildly and
subdues fever, and destroys worms with invaria
ble success. It is easy of administration, and as it
does not contain mercury in any form whatever, no
restrictions are necessary with regard to drinking
cold water, nor is it capable of doing the least in
jury to the tenderest infant. An incredible num
ber of worms have been expelled by this great
vermifuge.

Every Thing Gives.
The sun gives ever; so the earth
What it can give, so much ’tis worth.
The ocean gives in many ways—
Gives paths, gives fishes, rivers, bays;
So, too, the air, it gives us breath ; "
When it stops giving, comes in death.
Give, give, be always giving;
Who gives not is not living.
The more you give
The more you live.
God’s love hath in us wealth upheaped;
Only by giving is it reaped;
The body withers, and the mind,
If pent in by a selfish rind ;
Give strength, give thought, give deeds, give pelf,
Give love, give tears, and give thyself.
Give, give, be always giving,
Who gives not is not living.
The more we give
The more we live.
Kind Words.
A little word in kindness spoken,
A motion or a tear,
Has often heal’d the heart that’s broken,
And made a friend sincere.
A word—a look—has crushed to earth
Full many a budding flower,
Which had a smile, but own’d its birth,
Would bless life’s darkest hour.
Then deem it not au idle thing
A pleasant word to speak,
The face you wear, the thoughts you bring,
A heart may heal or break.

Impelled liy an honest desire to im
part useful information, and actuated with a be
nevolent wish to benefit the public health, we
would call the attention of our readers to the great
remedy known as “ Rhodes’ Fever and Ague Cure.”
It is the only remedy now before the world, which
with active curative properties combines entire
harmlessnes.s. That this is so, we feel confident,
from the fact that Doet. James R. Chilton, the cel
ebrated chemist of New York, testifies to its per
fect freedom from any injurious ingredients, such
as Quinine, Mercury, Arsenic, Ac., which form the
active principle of most medicines offered as a
remedy for Fever and Ague and kindred disorders.
The article under consideration is based upon the
principle that for every disease, nature furnishes
the appropriate neutralizing agent. It is well
; known that miasmatic exhalations cause Fever and
I Ague, and the medicine before us is calculated ex
pressly to counteract those poisonous vapors.
In short, it is precisely what it claims to be, a
u tiirul Antidote to Malaria !

tST*We cannot refrain from calling the
attention of our readers to an advertisement in this j
day’s paper, of the “ HAIR RESTORATIVE ” of
Prof. O. J. Wood A Co., of St. Louis. It will he
seen that he has numerous certificates from per
sons of the highest character, to the merits of his !
Restorative. From positive knowledge, we are also
enabled to say that it is in every sense what it pro- ;
fesses to he, and we do not hesitate to pronounce
it the finest preparation for the head and hair which
has so far been devised by human ingenuity. We I
have seen it arrest threatened baldness, and restore i
to the head its original profusion of natural and
glossy hair, and when the latter has been prema
! turely tinged with gray, we have seen it, like ma
j gic, restore the colors of youth and health. The
distinguishing property of this, we might truly
say, miraculous “Restorative,” is that it gives to
the person who uses it, the same head of hair that
they wore in youth, thus acting in strict compli
ance with the rules of the first and greatest of all :
toilet makers Nature. No one who has used it '
will hesitate to unite with us in this testimony to
its peculiar merit.- Covington, [ml. /We’* Frkn,!
