At 19 years of age I was afflicted with fearful pains in my head, eyes, shoulders and right side, and began to spit blood. I tryed quite a n mber of physicians, whose medicines only brought temporary relief. They called it cold, and after exhaust!..g their treatment, said I was sure to die. Be¬ ing an orphan, and in poor health all my life, I thought deatli would be a re¬ lief. Thus, for twenty years, I suffer¬ ed. My only solace was in morphine, so iutanse was my suffering. During the spring of 1881 I was induced to try Swift’s Specific. It acted like a charm. It was a God send to me. After using it that season, I was completely restor ed. It gave me pure blood, strong nerves, sound mind and good health. I am now thirty-five years of ago and am in perfect health as any lady in Atlanta. Ten thousand tongues could not express my gratitude for finding this wonderful medicine. I commend it to suffering humanity. Jan. 1 ’84.

I saw an advertisement an¬ nouncing that Swift’s Specific bad cur¬ ed Mr. James Dunning, of Louisville, Ky., of this terriule disease. I procur¬ ed thirteen bottles at once and began its use. At the end of seven months there was not the least sign of tettei on my person, nor h>ts there been a sin¬ gle symptom of its return up to date Therefore, I cheerfully recommend Swift’s Specific to all who are afflicted witli this painful disease. I am very thankful that I ever heard of Swift’s Specific. It has brought health and happiness to my home. Feb. 19, ’85. 8. \V. Peak, Winchester, 111. Treatise on Blood anil Skin Disease mailed free.

AN INFAMOUS CIRCULAR, the scuiuu r,m:s and disgraceful ASSAULT ON REV. SAM JONES. [Chattanooga Times. 1 The following is a copy of the scurri¬ lous and disgraceful circular which was printed and circulated in Nash¬ ville last week in reference to llev. Sam Jones : “SAM JONES’ GREAT SHO^f AND CIRCUS WILL TAKE CLACK AT NASHVILLE, MAY 15, 1885, JnD CONTINUE TWENTY DA ii. The laughable farce. Christianity will be expounded by the great down, Sam Jones, llis great fanatical orato¬ ry will furnish lunatics for the new lu¬ natic asylum about to be erected at Knoxville at the expense of the tax¬ payers, where he has already been suc¬ cessful in confusing the minus of ills heat era. Seats will be occupied by re¬ ligious cranks, hypocrites, unlettered men and women, fanatical defaulters, snuff ilipners, morphine and opium eaters, murderers, robbers and thieves. Besides some misguided, though well meaning men and women, most ot whom who will go only to see the show ; it will be the grandest farce that ever took place in Nashville. Mur¬ derers always profess ou a gallows to lielieve in a God and devil, supposing that the clergy can send thorn straight to heaven from the gallows, regardless ofi Hie heinous crimes they may com¬ mit. None will bo considered eligible for the throne of grace who have minds of their own, or are strictly honest and moral, or don’t believe in possibilities. All persons whose mind* are not clouded with superstition, big¬ otry and sectarian hatred, will be ruled out as incompetent. The side show will be very attractive for the matri¬ monial market and sight seers. Tick¬ ets free, but don’t forget the missiona¬ ry box, for you know the action of the clergy is no money, no preach. “Humbug and Ignor anue, „ <ga <%" «afq*- —•*" * - ’W»V :• 9r-. .* tiow*’ the Law-Maker* cnoasr Their Heuta. The House having notified the Sen ate of its organization, there remaineij but one oilier interesting feature of tin? proceedings. Every member naturally wished the best seat in the hall t'-at he could obtain ; and as all of them could not lie satisfied, the question was de¬ termined by a game ol chance. Tiie clerk placed in a box as many slips of paper as there were representatives, each bearing the name of a representa t.ve, and he then drew these slips from box one at a time. (The member oldest in continuous service, and also Mr. Alexander II. Stephens, who, on account of his age and infirmity, was **, nlilled to consideration on the part of the IIouSB,” were permitted to choose seats before the drawing coin menced.) Then all the other members retired beyond the outer row, and each representative, as the slip hearing his name was drawn and called, caine for ward and elected a scat. It was quite an amusing performance ; the law-ma kevB enjoy 'd the fun fully i s much as did the spectators in the gallery ; and the countenances of the fortunate members beamed witli tbe smiles of childish joy. In the Senate, this matter of seats is settled in a different way. At the he ginning of every Congress, the newly elected Senators choose from among the vacant seats in the order in which each senator notifies Captain Lassett, on tiie principal! of “first come, first d i{ they uo not get satis swls they "speak” for other , .-eats, in the event of sucii seats beeom vacant during their t< rm of office.

NEWS ITEMS. Huron ASH'rox.N.Y., May 17.—Thd round house,of the Elmira, Cortland and Northern railroad company, at Cortland, was burned ibid morning. Four locomotives were destroyed. Tod loss is nearly one hundred thousand dollars. The Carnesville Register—published in its last issue that a member of the church in Franklin county had accused another member of stealing five dollars, and had got turned out of tbe church for his pains. It now turns out that bd was turned out of the church for tell¬ ing lies about tire stealing. Thechurch sent a committee to inquire into the fact, and each one was told a different tale. The committee disbalieved the stealing part and turned the accuser out for lying. Logust Gap, Pa., May 17-—Miss Julia Kramer, eighteen yestrs old, was shot and fatally injured this morning by Peter Knolbauch, a rejected lover. Miss Kramer was conversing with Wil liam Neuman, an accepted suiter, when Knolbauch approached and joined in the conversation. A moment later he drew his revolver and sent the bait through Miss Kramer’s head, remark¬ ing that he would either marry her or kill her. A second shot passed through the young lady’s head. A third shot at Neuman did not take effect. Knol bauch was arrested, and art attempt was made to lynch him, but tbe timeljr arrival of tbe officer prevented It, and lie was to jail. There are only .'100 copies of tbe of Guiteau printed at the government printing office ami these were controll¬ ed exclusively by tbe department ot justice. Certain speculators have* however, managed to get the most of them in their control. The report of the trial is only valuable from the fact that it, contains a great deal ot “ex pert” testimony ou the question of to 1 - sanity, which lawyers use frequently In other cases. Lt is generally admitted. now, however, that the testimony offer ed by the >1* tense was u mm <r*l ! sthmlpoint, digress refused to petuute the record by increasing number of copies, the opinion being that tlie history of the case ought to b*' blotted out. A Columbus, O.,special says: “Dayld Wilson, colored, a prisoner, serving* twenty years’ sentence for assault on * woman, made a horrible attempt at self-destruction in Patton’s toundiy, at the penitentiary Saturday afternoon. Wilson has been depressed and moody of late, and when called for work, he' refused to leave his cell, and was oh ly got out after a sharp struggle. About 2 o’clock he left work without permis¬ sion and went to the deputy warden’s office. Being asked what lie wanted, he replied : “I want a new head ; I am tired of the one on my shoulders and want another.*’ He was taken 1 back to the foundry and set to work again. He worked steadily until 3 39, at which time the molten iron leaves the furnace. A few minutes after it began to ruo, Wilson, unperceived by the guards, darted forward and thrust his head up to his ears into the ladle of the molten metal. When removed to the hospital it was found that the llesh of his head down to his ears and* eyes was completely cooked, there not being v. single hair left where the melt¬ ed iron had touched his scalp.
