CARTERSVILLE, GA. feb. 7, 1871.w1y Dr. SCHEXCK Advises Consump tives to go to Florida in Winter. Having for the lust thirty-five years devoted my whole time and attention to the study of lung diseiises and consumption, 1 feel that f un derstand fully the course that ought to be pur sued to restore a tolerably had case of diseased hings to healthy soundness. The first and most important step is lor the patient to avoid taking cold, and the best of all places on this continent for this purpose in winter, is Florida, well down in the State, where the temperature is regular, and not subject to such variations as iu more Northern latitudes. Palatka is a point I can re commend. A good hotel is kept there by Petef man. Last winter I saw several persons there whose lungs had been badly diseased, but who, undef the healing influence of the- climate and my medicines, were getting well. One hundred miles further down the river is a point which I would prefer to Palatka, as tlie temperature is more even and the air dry and brttcing. slelloTrville and Enterprise, are loca ted there. I should give a decided preference to ’Mellon ville. It is two miles from river or lake, and it seems almost impossible to take cold there. The tables in Florida might be better, and pa tients complain at times but that is a good sign, as it indicates a return of appetite, and wlien this is the case they generally increase iu flesh, and then tlie lunps must heal. Jacksonville, Hibernia, Green Cove, and manv other places in various parts of Florida, cau be safely recommended to consumptives in winter. My reasons for saying so are that patients are less liable to take cold there than where there is a less even temperature, aud it is not necessary to say that where a consumptive person exposes himself to frequent colds he is certain to die shortly. Therefore my advice is, go well down iuto the State out of reach of the prevailing east winds and fogs. Jacksonville, or almost any other of the localities 1 have named, will benefit those who arc troubled with a torpid liver, a dis ordered stomach, deranged bowels, sore throat or cough, but for those whose lungs are diseased a more southern point is earnestly recommend ed. For fifteen years prior to 1869, I was profes sionally in New York, Boston, Baltimore and Philadelphia every week, where I saw and ex amined on an average five hundred patients a week. A practice so extensive, embracing ev ery possible phase of lung disease, lias enabled me to understand the disease fully, and hence, my caution in regard to taking cold. A person may take vast quantities of “Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup, Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills,” aud yet die if he does not avoid taking cold. In Florida, nearly every body is using Schenck’s slandrake Pills, for the climate is more likely to pi-oduce billious habits than more northern latitudes. It is a well established fact that natives of Florida rarely die of consump tion, especially those of the southern part. Ju the other hand, in New England, one third, at least, of the population die of this terrible dis ease. In the sliddle States it does not prevail so largely, still there are many thousands of ea ses there. What a vast percentage of life vvoud be saved if consumptives were as easily alarm ed in regard to taking fresh cold as they are about scarlet fever, small pox, &c. But* they are not. They take what they term a little cold, which they are credulous enough to believe w ill wear off in a few days. They pay no attention to it, and hence it lays the foundationfor anoth er and another still, until the lungs are diseased beyond all hope for cure. Mv advice to persons whose lungs are affected even slightly is, to lay in a stock of Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup* Schenck’s Seaweed Tonic and Schenck’s 51 and rake Pills and go to Florida. I recommend these particular medicines beeaue I am thoroughly acquainted with their action. I know* that where they are used in strict accord ance \vith my directions they will do the work that is required. This accomplished, nature will do the rest. The physician who prescribes for cold, cough or night-sw eats, and then advises the patient to walk or ride out everv day, will he sure to have a corpse on his hands before long. 51y plan is to give my three medicines’ in ac cordance with the printed directions, exoeufc in some cases where a freer use of ;he Maudrake Pills is necessary. My object is to give tone to the stomach—to get up a good appetite. It is al ways a good sign w*hen a patient begins to grow hungry. I have hopes of such. With a relish for food and the gratification of that relish comes good blood, and with it more flesh, which isclose ly follow ed by a healing of the lungs. Then the cough loosens and abates, the creeping chills and clammy night-sweats no longer prostrate and annoy, and the patient gets well, provided ae avoids taking cold. Now there are many consumptive who have net the means to go to Florida. Tlie question may be asked, is there no hope for such? Cer tainly there is. My advice to such is, and ever lias been, to stay in a warm room during wunter, with a temperature of about seventy degrees, which should be kept regularly at that point, by means of »thermometer. Let such a patient take hrs exercise w ithin the limits of the room by walking up and down as much as his strength will permit, in order to keep up a healthy circu lation of tho blood. I have cured thousands by this system, aud can do so again. Consumption is as easily cured as any other disease if it is ta ken in tune, and the proper kind of treatment is poised. The fact stands undisputed on record that bchenck’s Pulmonic Syrup, Mandrake Pills, end Seaweed Tonic have cured very many of what seemed to be hopeless cases ot consump tmfl* Go where you will, you will be almost cer tain to find some poor consumptive who has been rescured trom the very jaws of death by their use. So far as the Mandrake Pills are concerned, every boky should keep a supply of them on hand. 1 liey act ou the liver better than calomel, and leave none of its hurtful effects behind. In fact they are excellent in all cases where a purgative medicine is required. If you have partaken too freely of fruit and diarrhoea ensues, a dose of the Mandrakes will cure you. If you are subiect ;;o sick headache, take a dose of the Mandrakes and they will relieve you in two hours. If you would obviate the effect of a change ol water or the too free indulgence in fruit, take one of the Mandrakes every night or every other wight, and you may then drink water and eat watomic 1- lons, pears, apples, plums, peeches or corn, with out the risk of being made sick bv them. They will protect those who live in diimp situation's against chills and fevers. Try them.. Thev are perfectly harmless. They can do vou good only, I have abandoned my professional visits to Boston and New York, but continue to see pa tients at my office, No. 15 N. SIXTH street, Phil adelphia, every Saturday, from ft a. m. to a p. m. Those who wish a thorough examination with Hie Kespirometer will he charged five dollars. The Uespirometcr declares the exact condition of the lungs, and patients oan readily learn whether they arc curable or not. But I desire it distinctly understood that the medicines de pends upon their being taken strictly accordin'-- to directions. In conclusion, J will say that when persons take my medicines and their systems are brought into a healthy condition thereby, they are not so liable to take cold, yet no one with diseased lungs can hoar a sudden change of at mosphere without the liability of greater or less irritation of the bronchial tubes. Full directions in all languages accompany my medicines, so explicit and clear that an v one can use them without consulting me, and can he bought from anv druggist. J. n. SCHENCK, M. I). No. 15 X.

Dr. O’Learv, in a lecture on Physi ognomy, at the pooper Institute, said, among other things: The face was an index to the char acter of most individuals. Large, fleshy uieu are more jolly and good natured than small ones, and dark men are more prone to meiauchoily than fair men. From the cradle on ward to the grave, men aud women have always been busy with the study of physiognomy, and still little lias beeu*doue to aualyze this subtle art.— Lavater, and others, wrote pon derous volumes on this subject, but when you have read them you feel •that you know very little about it.— All their rules and laws are full of ex ceptions. The physiognomist begins with the assumption that a man’s mind makes the body. If it be a refined mind, it builds for itself a refined body; if it be u gross mind, it selects a gross body. Tall men seldom get angry.— The fighting bullies are generally low sized individuals. In his face every man seems, as it were, to hang out liis own sign board, and whenever a hu man being resembles an auiuial in fea tures, lie also resembles an animal in character. liefinemeut cannot be ex pected from a short man with fat, greasy hands, round, fat face, small I temple and large mouth; nor diguity from little women of 100 pounds weight. Large men aud women are rarely jealous; while litllu men are apt to scold their wives,' except when married to big women. Tlie face is di vided iuto three parts; if the first part predominates it shows animal passion and carnal appetites; if the second, energy and determination; if the third predominates it points to a nature of dreumy aud spiritual ideal. Black eyes denote passion; blue, laughter and crying; gray, coldness; hazel, elo quence; red, warmth and voluptuous ness. Me never knew a cold heart to be fond of a red color —cold hearts generally adopt gray. A man with a round, full bullet-head has a good memory, and a man with a hollow forehead forgets everything. Parties with promiueut eyes have a good mem ory and volubility of words, while those with sunken eyes, far back in the head, have a scarcity of words aud lack the power of expressing themselvei liuent- Jy* A Remarkable Escape. A correspondent of the Plattsburg (Mo.) Register , some days ago, told this remakable story, which happened in Grundy county: “A Mr. John Andrews, a popular and well-to-do farmer in the neighbor hood, had dug a well some forty feet deep, -when it was discovered that the well was about to cave in. Mr. An drews gathered up an armful of short boards and went down a pole ladder, fastened to the side of the well, to lay them across the wall, so as to prevent the dn*t as it fell from filling up that part of the well walled up. He had not more than reached the bottom, as it was thought, before the well caved in, filling up to a few feet of the top. — The alarm was given, and the neigh bors gathered, but all believing him dead they returned to their homes to make arrangements to come next day and dig him out. “Airs. Andrews and two grown daughters and several smaller children refused to leave the spot, and sat on a log near the well, crying, until late in the evening, when all at once they saw Mr. Andrews emerging from the well, covered with clay and coming toward them. The children ran, screaming to the house, bolted the doors and fasten ed the windows, believing it to be their father's ghost. But Mrs. Andrews ran to meet him, screaming at the top of her voice, ‘Oh, John! oh, John! Is that you ? Is that you ?’ "When she reached him she fell fainting at his feet. “It seems that when he got to the bottom of the well he looked up and saw the top giving way, and believing he had not time to make his escape he slipped under the boards which he had laid across the well, when the whole thing fell in upon him. All hope at first gave way, and he was about to let himself drop into the water below and end at once his miserable feelings.— But feeling above, he found the clay easily crumbled, and hope revived.— The pole ladder, it seems, was still standing, and taking.hold of it with one hand, he u ith the other scratched away for dear life, the dirt falling into the water below as he dragged himself slowly upwards. It seems he did not suffer a great deal iu breathing, as fresh air came down the pole, around which the dirt was loosely packed. In the incredibly short time of seven hours he scratched a hole some forty feet long, through which he made his escape. “This is one of the narrowest hair breadth escapes from a horrible death A Reminiscence. A few days after the capture of Fort Sumpter, iu April, 1861, when the voice of the whole country was for war, we had a conversation with a gentleman who was an officer in the Mexican war, and who, besides in Ohio, had obtain ed eminence as a civilian, that we have often thought of since. Said he to us: *T saw to day an old comrade of mine in Mexico, a West Pointer, but who re signed bis position in the army a tew ■ ! years ago. I asked wbv he was not 1 in uniform, and expressed my surprise t that he was not already a Colonel or Genei al of Volunteers. His reply was: , ‘I think you and I have hud lighting enough. What I want in this war is a ■ plaofe by which I can make some mon ey.” He sought to get l hut place here. He made an effort to be selected by i the governor as a buyer of horses, but failed. He next endeavored to borrow a few hundred dollars of a military , friend of ours, then aud now iu i the regular army, for the purpose of entering into a business where he would get army patronage. Being re fused, he applied, as we ui derstaud, to I General Burns for a position iu the ! Commissary Depaitment in this city, * but failed also in getting it. There be jug nothing here to suit him, he wend [ ed his way back to Illinois and became a sort of Secretary to Governor Yates, and everything being unsuccessful he chose at last to go iuto the army.— But be.did not want to go where there was fighting at all. It w r as money he was nfFr, and money he has made as General aud President of the United States. If he had obtained the position he asked for, as a buyer of horses, the country would have had a competent, if not an honest., man in that pbee, and we should not now have had a bad President, who makes the filling of his purse his principles.— Cincinnati Enqui rer. Barbarism. There is, says the Balimore Sun, one feature of the late fearful tragedy on the Hudson River Railroad, as de scribed by the New York journals, which is more shocking than the de plorable loss of life and the circum stances of extraordinary horror by which the calamity was accompanied. We refer to the unpurelleled brutality said to have been exhibited at the treatment of the dead. All the New York journals seem to agree in state ments to this effect. The New York Tribune says that charred aud mutila ted remains of the dead were “fished out as if they were logs, or carrion, aud the stark bodies of ladies have been exposed to such indignities as they might have received at the hands of Yahoos. Eighty per cent, dividends are evidence of such resources in a railroad company that it can at least afford to send up a diving-bell, or some other efficient means of recover ing from the tide the bodies of passen gers drowned or burnt to death in its Uands, and to employ such force as may be necessary to secure for the ghastly remains respectful if not rev erent care.” Other authorities state that while women and children were burning in oil-drenched cars, mangled bodies were sinking through the ice of the stream, and numbers of wounded were screm ing for help, the by-st .riders were en gaged iu rifling trunks, and the rail road officials and hands in coolly re pairing the broken bridge and saving the pieces of the cars; while, in one in stance, a man had got hold of a copy of sermons of a clergyman, who, with his wife and three children, were killed, and was reading them aloud, amid the jeers of the auditors. The Poughkeepsie correspondent of the Ney York Times acquits the neigh boring vaillagers of the artrocities al leged against them. He says: “The people of New Hamburg did not steal the baggage, jewelry, &c., as alleged; they did ail they could for the dead and injured; the tlieives of New York and other places seemed to come up afterward; there was no force to prevent it. They saw the vandalism of certain outsiders, many of them uu kown roughs, and did all they could to prevent its the accusation against them was very unjust.” No matter by whom perpetrated, the spectaclo of such unheard-of bar barity; in the heart of what claims to be a high civilization, is one which the various social reformers, now so nu merous, might do well to study, both in its causes and probable effects upon society at large. The Washington Pa - triot suggests the inquiry to those who are accustomed to Uea) in supercilious reproaches of barbarism in the South, whether any event has ever happened iu that section for which its people ought to blush a deeper red.— A Max Deowned \Y hile Being Bap tized.—A few since Dr. A. P. Pownall, of Sand Kill, Ky., after a biief courtship, was married to Miss Mary J. Wilson. Shortly after his marriage Dr. Pownall united with the Christian Church, and Sunday last 'yas appointed as the day of his bap tism, he having requested his pastor, the Bev. J. B. Hough, to perform the rite. At the appointed hour a large number of persons had assembled on the banks of Crooked Creek, the place chosen for the immersion. After sing ing and prayer the liev. Mr. Hough entered the water, leading the Doctor. They were obliged to proceed some distance from the shore in order to reach a sufficient depth, but suddenly both were seen to go down. They soon arose to the surface and the miu- ister regained the bank, but the Doc tor, being unable to swim, was swept by the current under a flood-gate, on ly a short distance below. Every ex ertion was made to save him, but in vain. The body was soon after found and brought to shore amid the most heart-rending sci earns from his young wife and friends. Everything pos sible was done to resuscitate the Doc tor, but alas! the vital spark had flown. iV. 11. Smith 4* t'o.. Proprietors. The Beaiit. The following sketch of the Massa chusetts champion thief is now in or der : He is fifty-three years old, slightly below the middle stature, and as un gainly and misshapen iii fu;ru as he is hideous and revolting in features.— His round, pot belly seems, bv long in dulgence iu a diet mosts vorablo to lhe abnormal developement of the ab dominals viscera, to have outgrown a pair of miserable spindle shanks, origi nally intended for the support of the most attenuated of human trunks, and which, by reason of the superincum bent weight of bowels they are compel led to sustain, have been bent into the shape of a pair of callipers or old-fash ioned pot hooks. His head, in that portion which is supposed to be the *6 it of ail the has r propensities with which humau j atu.e is sometimes so sadly deformed, is very largely devel oped, as well os that portic n which is thought by naturalists to impart to certain orders of the brute creation their intelligence and cunning; but the top of his head, iu fact all ut it, except around the base of the skull, is entire ly bald, as if nature designed that the world'should see from the mere cCufor uiation of his cranial do\elopement ihat he is incapable of uioial sentiment. His forehead is broad, low and reced ing. His eyes are simply past descrip tion, as there is, perhaps, not a human being alive who can tell the color of them. To save him the painful necessity of looking his fellow-iuau in the face they are placed obliquely under a pair of beetling brows and confined iu a most atrocious squint, w’hich only allows them to peep out between the folds of » haggy skin, iu which they are con cealed in perpetual contemplation of his rather small, illshaped nose, which has more tho resemblance of the beak of some carrion bird than anything else. A small, crescent-shaped mus tache hangs over and partially conceals a sensual mouth, wbile his chin recedes into a heavy, round jowL Although such n (usun natvree perhaps never ex isted, his countenance when in repose would remind one of a cross-eyed snapping turtla When animated it has no similitude iu the entire rage ot animated nature, as even one of his abortive smiles but serves to add dis tortion to Ins already hideous features. There may be a jewel iu the head of the toad, but, as Deity never buries the gems of the human heart in such an execrable casket, it requires no a Jept in the science of Lavater to see that deceit, cunning, treachery, cow ardice and cruelty are the leading char acteristics of this man.

The Pacific express train on the Pan-Handle railroad left Columbus depot ou Friday evening at 8 o'clock, under the charge of Conductor Drury. Nothing transpired to disturb the monotony of the conductors call ou drowsy passengers for “tickets, gentle men, until the train w’as between Dennison and Steubenville. Then he w T as notified that a lady passenger de sired his presence. He found tlie lady evidently in some trouble and embar rassment. To his affirmative response to the query whether he was a married man, the lady stated that she was on her way from Cincinnati to meet her husband in New York and that a cri sis was impending, involving the ap pearance of an additional passenger. This startled the conductor, but with a heart as big as an elephant, he set to work to make the lady comfortable.— All the passengers were hastily shown into another car, and such female as- sistance us could be procured on the occasion, were brought into requisition. In a short time, the little stranger— a flue, bouncing girl iu the phrase— put in appearunce, and the con ductor congratulated himself on his happy escape from a dilema. W ith a heart ovei flowing with sympathy, he arranged an impromptu wardrobe for the very young lady from his own un derclothing. It was not exactly in the style of those “infant outfits” ad vertised iu the New York papers, yet it served a good purpose. But this was not all. The train left Steubenville on time, and was soon thundering through and around the hills of West Virginia, when the con ductor received another shock. This time - it was a “fine bouncing boy.”— Twins, by jove! One a Buckeye, and the other a Pan-Hundler. The re- ma.nder of Drury’s linen went to start the little fellow ou his journey through the world. Then, for fear of what might happen the train was hurried up; iu due time it reached Pittsburg, and the lady and two unticketed pas sengers were tenderly conveyed to comfortable quarters at the Union De pot hotel, when a telegram was for warded to the husband in New Yoik, which will probubly lift him out of his boots. At last, adviees the mother and children were doing well. ■* * • NUMBER 37.
