The profession has sought dilligently for some remedy that wo'ld enable them to treat’these diseases with success. At last, that remedy has been discovered by one of the most skilful physicians in the State of Georgia. The remedy is Bradfield’s Female Regulator. It is purelv vegetable, and is put up in Atlan ta, by BRADFIELD & CO- It will purify the blood and strengthen the system, relieve irritation of the kidneys, and is a perfect specific for all the above diseases; as certain a cure as Quinine is in Chills and Fevers. For a history of diseases, and certificates of its worderful cures, the reader is referred to the v, rapper around the bottle. Every bottle war ranted to give satisfaction or money refunded. LaGkanoe, Ga., March 23,1870. BRADFIELD A CO., ATLANTA, GA.: Dear Sirs: I take pleasure in stating that I have used, for the last twenty years, the medi cine you are putting up, known as I)It. J. BRAD FIELD’S FEMALE REGULATOR, and con sider it the best combination ever gotten to gether for the diseases for which it is recom mended. I have been familiar with the pre scription both as a practitioner of medicine and in domestic practice, and can honestly say that 1 consider it a boon to suffering females, and can but hope that every lady in our w-hole land, who may be suffering in any way peculiar to their sex, may be able to procure a bottle, that their sufferings may not only be relieved, but that they may be restored to health & strength. With ray kindest regards, I am, respectfully, W. B. FERRELL; M. I). Wi», the undersigned Druggists, take pleasure in commending to the trade, Dr. .J. Bradfleld’s Female Regulator—believing it to be a good and reliable remedy for the diseases for which he recommends it. W. A. LA NS DELL, PEMBERTON. WILSON, TAYLOR A CO. REDWINE ft FOX, W. C. LAWBHE, Atlanta, Ga. W. ROOT & SON, Marietta, Ga. DR. PROPHITT’S Celebrated Liver Medicine. It is purely vegetable, and will act upon the Liver and Kidneys as promptly as Calomel and Buchu, without any danger of salivation or de struction of the bones. Parties taking the medicine need not fear get ting wet, or any other reasonable exposure. Symptoms of Liver Disease: Headache, Dull Feelii: g or the Blues, Sour Stom ach, Sick or Nervous 1. eadache, Heartburn, In digestion or Dyspepsiu, Bad or Bitter Taste in the Mouth, the skin has a thick, rough feeling, and is darker than usual, Costiveness, Melan choly Feeling*, Cramps, Cold Feet, Colic, Dys entery, or Diarrhoea, Chills and Fever, and Piles. In fact, where the Liver is outoferder, you are liable to every disease that is not conta gious. l’rophitt’s Liver Medicine, if taken properly, will prevent and cure any disease resulting from a deranged liver. It will regulate its functions and thus cure all diseases caused by the failure of its healthy ac tion. It has been used for a great number of years, and has given universal satisfaction. There is no brother or son claiming to have the origional recipe. It is put up in both Pow der and Fluid form. Fairbuhn, Ga., sept. 4, DR. O. S. PROPHITT: Sir: My wife has been an invalid for fifteen years. Doctors all agreed she had “Liver Dis ease.” In connection with their practice she used various and noted remedies, none of which seemed to do any good. Sometime ago I procu red a bottle of your “Liver Medicine,” of your agent here, C. A. Harvey, which being given ac cording to directions, has affected a eomulete cure. Respectfully, &c., GEO. L. THOMAS. CHARLOTTE, N. €., Sept. 24,1868. I have used Dr. 0. S. Prophitt’s Liver Medi cine as a tonic, and found it to be powerful and efficacious. It is excellent for functional de rangement of the Liver or constipation of the bowels; in most cases superceding the necessity of a regular course of medicine. E. J. MEYNARDIE, Pastor Tryon-str. C’h. M arion County, Texas, Aug. 1, 1869. DR. O. S. PROPHITT: Dear Sir: I write you this to inform you that I have been troubled a great deal with indiges tion, but after using one bottle of your Liver Medicine, I find great relief. I cheerfully re commend it as a good Family Medicine, and feel confident that it is good for anything for which it claims to be an antidote. Very respectfully, DICK LOCKETE. Dr, Prophitt’s Dysentery Cordial, Is one of the most valuable compounds now put up for Diarrhoea, Dysentery, Cholera Infantum, or Cholera Morbus. This medicine has been in use for years, and gives uniuersal satisfaction. The most delicate child may take it with im punity. Covington, Ga., Nov. 9,1867. DR. PROPIIITT: Having a severe attack of Dvsentery during the past summer, I was induced to use your Dy sentery Cordial, and derived therefrom'immedi ate and permanent relief. It gives me pleasure to recommend this remedy to all who mav be so attacked, believing that, should the directions be followed, relief would surely be obtained.— Truly, Ac. 0. S. PORTER. Cussata, Texas, 1869. DR. PROPHITT: Dear Sir: Your Liver Medicine and Pain Kill It is a complete success. J. L. WHITTLE. West Point, Ga., Aug. 11,1869. This is to certify that 1 have used Dr. O. S. Prophitt’s Liver Medicine myself and in my family, for twelve months or more, and I unhes itatingly say that I believe it one of the best Family Medicines in use. M. T. WALKER. PROP HITT’S Pain Kill It. This is the celebrated medicine that run Terry Davis’ Pain Killer out of the market, wherever it was sold. Davis made Prophitt change the name from Pain Killer to PAIN KILL IT. For Rheumatism, Neuralgia, or pain of any kind it has no equal. For Cuts, Bruises, Burns, or old Sores, it is the best thing you can use as a dressing. For Snake Bites or Stings of Poisonous Insects, it is a perfect ANTIDOTE. It is good for Colic, Colds, Coughs, or Bowel Complaints. Its name indicates its naturefullv. It is truly DEATH to pain. Manufactured and sold by BRADFIELD & CO., Atlanta, Ga., and for sale by all druggists. Dooly Bounty, Ga., April, 1867. This is to certify that I was confined to the house, and mo6t of the time to my bed, and suf fering the greatest agony imaginable with Rheu matism, for five months, and after trying every available remedy, with no relief, I was cured wit* l two bottles of Dr. O. S. Prophitt’s Anodyne Pain Kill It; each costing fifty cents only. It relieved me almost instantly. I therefore re commend it in the highest degree to others suf fering from similar disease. 1 can sav that it is one of the finest Family Medicines now out, cer tain. Yours, truly, W A. FOREHAND. Dooly County, Ga., Oct 27,1867 DR. O. S. PROPHITT: I have, during the last eigeteen months, used your Pain Kill It, and I consider it unequaled by anything for pain in the head, breast, back or side; and for colic nothing gives relief half so quick as your Anodyne Pain Kill. It is doing much good in the community in o ther families as well as my own. Yours, &c., D. T. FOREMANft. DR.

At an early hour l ist evening the police reporters of the various city papers, were notified that four persons had been suffocated in the viciuity of Eighty fifth street by an escape of gas on the floor where they were sleeping. The telegram came from Captain Byrne, of the Eighty-sixth street Sta tion House, and gave all ttie particu lars at that time in possession of the police. At midnight a reporter visited the scene, in company witu Captain Byrne. In front of the house, w hich is in Third avenue, near Eighty-fifth street, two policemen were standing. Ascending the stairs, a door was opened, on the second floor, from which came forth a stench which would almost drive one back, even were he possessed of the strongest nerves and stomach. Enter ing this room, a small one, there was to be seen in one corner a bed con taining four dead bodies. In the room was scattered about clothing, scanty articles of dishes and furniture, all unclean. A small piece of candle was furnished by the police, and with this a hasty inspection was made of the premises. Sticking the piece of candle on the head of the bed, the bodies of those it contained were ex amined by its uncertain light. All of those upon it wore the full every day dress. Evidently the room had got cold and they had, as poor folks often are compelled to do, retired with their clothes on. On the further side of the bed, and near the wall, was a man, some twenty years of age, and very good-looking, whom the police knew to be one John Scanlon, with black hair and half open eyes and a beard some thi ee days old; he was dressed in a dark coat, dark pants, light colored vest and a grayish woolen shirt. A pair of woolen stockings were on his feet, half covered by an old quilt.— From his mouth there had escaped a quantity of foam, and it hung upon his lips like a great w’hite cloud. His right hand was thrust into the upper part of his pants and the left hung over the head of a little child creeping up on his breast. The child seemed creeping from the asphyxia of death which surrounded it. It was scantily chid in a woolen jacket and striped skirt of cotton stuff. Next to this lay the mother, enciente , with a placid and listless look. She wore a dingy dressing gown of purpie color and a gray serge underdress. She was about twenty eight years of age. Next to this woman, and on the out side of the bed, lay another —a sister — named Susan Sandor. She wore a maroon colored dress and a black and white plaid shawl. Her face was red and her nostrils and mouth were cov ered with blood, evidently the effects of suffocation. It was one of the most horrible spectacles one c n imagine, and even the police, accustomed to ev ery horror, refused to enter the room. New York Herald, January 31. Boys’ Suicide.— A suicide wdiich oc curred in New York a few days ago is a painful illustration of the excessive culture of the emotional nature.— Twelve weeks since a boy of sixteen years, named. George Henry A. Starr, committed suicide by taking lauda num, the cause being that he was be wildered and troubled about “predes tination, foreordination and decree.”- Older and abler minds have worried themselves to insanity on the same in scrutable problem. He chose to solve it by crossing the river. The boy had a friend, older thau himself, but still as childish, one Alfred Garoway. The two had held high converse on sub jects which the angels, we are told, ap proach with a shudder, and after the death of Starr, Garroway went crazy, or, perhaps, was then first discovered to be crazy. He was sent to a lunatic asylum, apparently recovered, and re turning to the house of Starr’s father, committed suicide by taking laudanum. Remarking on the singular suicides the Newark Advertiser says; “In both the sorrowful incidents the physiologi t will find the cause in an unnatural mental stimulus. Two firm young fellows died of religious deliri um tremens. Avery similar case oc curred, within a fortnight, in the northern portion of New Jersey, where a revival was in progress. A young girl rushed up lo the alter, confessed a theft, and falling down on the spot, was carried home stone blind and a lu natic, and so she still remains. “The most obtuse reason or can see that these things are and the educated metaphysician knows that appeals n ade exclusivly to the emotions, to hysterical elements which exists in every nature, the wild, reck less implorings made to children by traveling exhorcers, are either a crime or a blunder, Insanity and suic.de follow in their train as a matter of course, and parents should be cautious how they permit their children to be submitted to such influences. Only well-babanced natures can bear the stage (-fleet and the histrionic style of j appeal which these mistaken men em ploy.”— Sac. Morning Neu^s. B&t A Dutchman, in Decatur, Illi imise, married a second wife in about a week after fcue loss of No. 1.

Editors and Proprietors. #gU Can auy cue tell why, when Eve was manufactured from one of Adam’s ribs, a hired girl wasn’t made u t the same time to wait upon her? We can, easy. Because Adam nev er came whining to Eve with a ragged stocking to be darned, a shut button to be sewed on, or a glove to bo mend ed, right away, quick now? Because he never read the newspapers until the sun got down tha palm- trees, and then scratched himself, yawning out, “Ain't soup most ready, my dear?’ Not he. He made the tire, and hung over the tea kettle himself, we’ll ven ture, and pulled the radishes and peel ed the bananas, and did everything else that he’d ought to! He milked the cows and fed the chickens, and looked after the pigs himself. He never brought home half dozen friends to dinner when Eve hadn’t any fresh pomegranates and the mango season was over! He never stayed out until eleven o’clock to a “ward-meeting,” hurraying for the out and out candi date, and then scolded because poor, dear Eve was sitting up aud crying in side the gate. To be sure he acted rather cowardly about apple gather ing time, Out then that don’t depreciate his general helpfulness about, the gar den. He never played billiards and drove fast horses, nor choked Eve with cigar smoke. He never loafed around corner gsocerios while solitary Eve was rocking little Cain’s cradle at home. In short, he didn’t think she was specially created for the purpose of waiting ou him, and wasn’t unde!’ the impression that it disgraced a man to lighten his wife’s care a little. That’s the reason that Eve did not need a hired girl, and we wish it was the reason that none of her fair de scendants did. —Life Illustrated. South Carolina. —In some respects South Carolina furnishes thß best pos sible illustration of the practical work ings of reconstruction; because iu that State the predominance of the African race gives the Radical party opportun ity to carry out all its plans without let or hindrance. The negro vote holds the ballance of power, and governor, judges, legislators, congressmen and senators owe their places to its influ ence; j’et these blacks, so omnipotent at the ballot-box, contribute nothing to the revenue. »jThe returns of the last election show that there were 130,- 000 votes cast; and at the same time we find by the auditors’ exhibit that only 41,000 persons paid a poll tax.— rtf course, white men: for the most part ri!orisf*rvn.HvPß. who nre tfuiH made to bear the burden of taxation, and still are utterly powerless m the management of affairs. That manage ment is exclusively in the hands of the 90,000 Radicals, who have no proper ty, pay no taxes, contribute nothing to the advancement of the State, and are only interested in perpetuating their own authority at all hazard. The leg islature is composed principally of ne groes and the lowest class of whites, aud the laws passed are precisely what might bo expected under the circum stances. In former times a three week’s session was deemed sufficient, but the present legislature has already sat two months, and there are no indications of speedy ajournment. As the mem bers get six dollars a day, they are in no hurry to abandon a business which pays them better than any other they can follow. It is rumored that they intend to sit all the year round, and there is nothing to hinder these sable statesmen from so doing all they choose for of course any constitutional provisions to the contrary can be easily overruled. South Carolina is poorer to day than before the war; business is stignant; taxes are so oppressive that property is a curse rather than a bless ing to the owner, and all the enterpris ing portion of the population, able to get away, are emigrating to other States as rapidly as possible. This is not a flattering picture, but it is emi nently truthful, and should be carefully studied by those who desire to obtain a clear idea of wnat Radicalism aud Af rican elevation, pure and simple, mean. —St. Louis MepubUcan. .

Henry Ward Beecher, nor the Ruv. W. T. Babine, as was at first apprehended by the public, but tho Rev. Mr. Walsh, the former pa-tor of some little church around the corner. Tae New York correspondent of the Mobile Tnbune says of the sad and 'singular occurrence: “Is it not ft disgrace to this firat <•’ass civilization of ours that ministers of th Gospel are left to starve in lie midst of wealth futd luxury ? N°glfcct of clergymen who, from one cause or XO. 34. another, fall into misfortune, is not an uncommon thing in New York. There are probably forty ex-ministers in this city, broken both mentally and physi cally, who are obliged to scrape up a living in any way they can, without either sympathy or assistance from those to whom they once preached, charity and brotherly love; and with all the efforts they can make, manv of these are unable to procure for them selves aud families the common neces saries of life. It was only the other day that a minister of the Wesleyan Church—the Rev. Mr. Walsh, formerly a city missionary —died, it may bo said, of actual starvation, leaving four children shivering with cold and suffer ing from the sharp pangs of hunger. Probably, if he had gone around beg ging, like a common pauper, he might have kept body and soul together a little longer; but he was too sensitive for that, and aa no one seemed to care much about him, he went on gradually starving to death, and did actually die' of hunger and cold, in this great city of splendor and plenty, where some ministers are paid SIO,OOO a van*; It was, perhaps, the fault of tho Rev. Mr. Walsh, that he thought it more in keepihg wii h his calling as a minister of the Gospel to preach to the poor, than so part his hair in the middle and deliver poetical speeches from the pulpit iu purple and fine lin en. If so, it was a grievous fault, and grievously has ho answered it. Tho reward of the faithful in the New Je rusalem is unquestionably great, but what is it compared to a teu thousand, dollar salary in Now York ? Lot the Rev. Mr. Walsh answer. He ought to have known that it is almost impossi ble for one preacher to enjoy both, and instead of fooling away his time as a. missionary among the poor, he should have been laying the foundation of a large salary by flattery leading the rich heiiwards. If the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, who now.piously pock ets his salary of twenty thousand dol lars, while his sinful brethren are starving to death around him, had felt it to be his duty to out among tho poor, and there Lure to brighter worlds, and lead the way— he, too, might have starved to death long ago. And the chances are that ho will one day wish he had.— Qour, JouruaL The Frcuclt Organ in America on the fiatorc of France. [From the Courier des Etats Unis, Jan. SI. Paris fallen. Frauce fallen, the war ended, is that peace ? No. Who then will dare to assert that France will forever submit to the eternal yoke?;— That man knows but very little of our country if he believes it capable of. such supreme philosophy and such a sublime act of humanity. When wo say that “the armistice ends the war, this is our opiuion and our desire.” We mean to say that shattered by strife, mutilated by the sword, and ignited by tiro, we are pre- t pared to lower the arms, of which the fate of battles has only left broken pieces in our hands. Wo will still re tain blood enough in our veins to live. We will keep, breath enough to rise again, to regain our strength, await our chance, and, at the proper hour, jump at the throat of our enemy and revenge ourselves. This may be savage —so bo it! This may retard civilization, and that, beautiful humanitarian theory of the abolition of war—no doubt of it !- We’ll be barbarians—so be it! And the whole world will regard us with scorn—what matters it! We have done enough for the prosperity of peace, for the arts, for tho sciences, for industry, and for the advancement of humanity ! What thanks has hu manity given us? What have we gain ed by the disinterested services which we have rendered to the world ? Not even barren sympathy have we receiv ed from that world, and there is net r. people to-day that does not smile at our fall, and only isolated voices give us a few charitable words of pity..
