THE WEEKLY CONSTITUTIONS ATLANTA. GA. TUESDAY MAY 10 1887
MU IN THE ASHES.
Ifhat the Kt. Lebanon Shaker* Found—
Incident fit the History of* (JuUt
Community.
The Mount Lebanon (New
York) Shakers are a quiet com
munity, secluded from the frcl
and worry of the outside world.
They are widely known, how
ever, for their strict honor and
probity in business.
The Shakers believe that na
ture has a remedy for every dis-
. ease. A few have been found—
the rest are as yet unknown.
Many were discovered by acci
dent. Others came to light as
the result of patient experiment
and research.
Nervous Dyspepsia is a com
paratively new disease, growing
out of the conditions of modern
life. It is a joint affection of
the digestive organs and of the
nervous system. These two
were formerly treated as sepa
rate ailments, and it was left
far the clear-sighted Shakers to
prove that the basis of this ter
rible and often fatal complica
tion lies chiefly in the disorder
ed and depraved functions of di
gestion and nutrition. They
reasoned thus: “If we can in
duce the stomach to do it 1
work, and stimulate the excre
tive organs to drive out of the
body the poisonous waste mat
ters which remain after the life-
giving elements of the food
have been absorbed, we shall
have conquered Nervous Dys
pepsia ana Nervous Exhaust
ion." And they were right
Knowing the infallible power
of Shaker Extract (Scigel’s
Syrup) in less complicated
though similar diseases, they
resolved to test it fully in this.
To leave no ground for doubt
they prescribed the remedy in
hundreds of cases which had
been pronounced incurable—
with perfect success in every in
stance where their directions as
to living and diet were scrupu
lously followed. Nervous Dys
pepsia and Exhaustion is a j'c
culiarly American disease, fo
a greater or less extent half the
people of this country suffer
from it—both sexes and all ages
Iu no country in the world are
there so many insane asylums
filled to overflowing, all result
ing from this alarming disease.
Its leading symptoms are these;
Frequent or continual headache,
a dull pain at the base of the
brain; bad breath; nauseous
erusticatious; the rising of sour
aud pungent fluids to the throat;
a sense of oppression and faint
ness at the pit of the stomach;
flatulence; wakefulness and loss
of sleep; disgust with food even
when weak from the need of it;
sticky or slimy matter on the
teeth or iu the mouth,especially
on rising in the morning; furred
and coated tongue; dull eyes;
cold hands and feet; constipa
tion; dry or rough skin; inabil
ity to fix the mind on any labor
calling for contiuuous atten
tion; aud oppressive and sad
forebodings aud fears.
All this terrible group Shaker
Extract (Seigcl’s Syrup) re
moves by its positive, powerful,
direct yet painless and gentle
setion upon the functions oi
digestion aud assimilation.
Those elements of the food that
build up aud strengthen the
system are sent upon their mis
sion, while all waste matters
(the ashes of life’s fire) which
unremoved, poison aud kill, are
expelled from the body through
the bowels, kidneys aud skin.
The weak aud prostrated nerves
are quieted, toned and fed by
the purified blood. As the re
sult,health, with its enjoyments,
blessings aud power, returns to
the sufferer who had, perhaps,
abandoned all hope of ever see
ing another well day.

Raleigh, N.C„ May 3.—For uventy yean
North Carolina hu keen burdened with n mys
tery which bnt deepened u the years pasted.
That mystery hu been whether Peter Smart
Ney, a simple and retired school teacher in
P.cdmont, N. O., wu ono and the tame poraon
as the world .famous Marshal Nay, the loved
and honored soldier of Napoleon; tha right
hand, In fact, of the ''Petite CaporeL’’ In or
der to solve the mystery, smogementa were
made to have the grave opened today and the
remains examined by n committee of physi
cltoe and surgeons of this state, at tho official
ri quest of Dr. Lyman Draper, proaldeat of tha
Wii cousin State Hlatoriesl society.
A boot 350 persons assembled at the quiet
graveyard at Third Creek, Bowan county, thla
afternoon to witneas the exhumation. DraJ,
a. Bam ray, D. B. Woodward aud C. M. Pool
directed tbe operation!. A large number of
other physicians were preunt, and Intanae In-
(crest wu manifested. At 1 o'clock the grave
wu opened and the remains removed. The
skull was found to be tolerably well preserved,
except that the upper portion had broken par
tially away. This la considered unfortunate,
u thoie puts which perished may hare been
jut whit Is needtd to settle the question. The
aknll of Marshal Ney had been triphtned, and
If It was found that a similar operation had
been performed on that of Peter 8. Ney, the
question of identity would have been practi.
cally settled.
THE MYSTERIOUS FRENCHMAN.
In 1810, In tbe month of Deeenbor, there ap
peared at tba quiet little town of MockavlUo,
in Davie oonnty, a forelgoer, evidently a
Frenchman, who gave hi) name u Peter Stu
art Nt.v. A few months later he opened n
ickool there, which he continued for uvoral
y cats. Afterwards he taught In Iredell county.
Thru he went to South Carolina and conduc-
ickool near Greenville, Later ho re
turned to North Carolina and again taught, a
portion of the time In Rowan county. It wu
Iu tho latter county that he died, aud at the
quiet little burial ground of Third Creek, a
h.mlet near tbe bonier of that county, Ms
body wu laid attest In the grave.
Daring the ytnre that Ney wu a teacher ha
taughtlbundrcds of young men and youths.
Ik me were mere country lad*. Othenfwere
the tons ofwcalthy and cultured parents. But
one and nil loved their teacher and admired
him, and one and all drank in, u freely u
tho nlr they breathed, the belief that this re.
dogoguo wu none other than thegrost
manhal of France. Thlabollef never grow dim
ordoubtfnl by tbo Jape* of year*. Scores of men
who were Ney'e pupils yet live, many have
iltcn high in the political or social world, and
from the so the wonderful atbry of tho nun
who tanght them la gathered.
A FUPIL or NEY ON TOE MATTER.
Major James H. Foote, lately manhal of
this rtTcnuo dlstrlct,and an accomplished man,
wu ono of Ney’a pupils. He uys that lu 1837-9
he attended Ney'a school In Iredell county.
BiateipreaaioaaefKeyaro vivid. Tha teacher
waa patronized by tha leading men of the
countyARd wu loved and honored of all. A< n
teacher he bad no anpetlor. Many of hla “boys”
thought it a degradation to join another school
after leaving bis. In discipline he wu uvero
toward hla grown pupUs bnt toward tho small-
cr ones no anient could be more tender. Al.
ways fcarca.he yet commanded the highest re-
spect and admiration. As to the personal ap
pearance of Ney, Major Foote ray*:
“Ha wu rather tall, well proportiontd, with
a military euriago and a form that denoted
grut strength and vigor. Hla features wore
strongly marked and very exortsalvo of hla
emotions. Hla ejee wen predominant u a
feature. It wulltt rally that of tho eaglo and
looked Into tho depths of the souL He always
dreiicd well, waa always charitable, and had
bnt one fault—that of drinking
liquor. Ha wu nearly bald, and hla remain
ing hair wu of reddish hna. Ou hla bead wu
a large scar, four inches long, evidently eaoaad
by a aabro-cut. On bla body were other wounds,
A musket ball had pierced hla leg and remained
In the calf. He wu a muter of fence. While
he waa teaching at MackavlUe a French fenc
ing muter made bla appearance and wlshrd to
iccura n data of pupil*. Tho boya at Ney'a
school told the fencing muter that If he would
have n bout with soiall.sworda with their teach-
■ r and beat Mm they would enter hla class.
Ney came for ward and there wu a bout on tha
playground. After a few puses, Ney with
wonderful dexterity, cut the fencing biiIv'i
hat In twain, whereupon the latter threw down
hla sword and said: ‘Gentleman, you have a
muter and have no use for ms.’ Ganeral
James Cook wu n witness of the affair. Ney
excelled In all atMstle sports.”
NEY TELLS HIS ATEANOE ST0RV.
There were only two occasions when Nsy
dropped hla usual moon*. One wu when hie
wu Intoxicated, the other when he wat in the
qnlet satiety of a Tory few lotlmato friends.
Mrs. Dalton wu a lady of whom ho wu ox*
tremely fond. She know more of him than
any outer, and always hollered him to be tho
Ney of Franco. To her Noy revealed n great
deal. Bo spoke of himself u really Ney, and
told of how he escaped drath when kewuof-
fldally reported to have been shot. Ha re-
felted to his family, his wife and hit ehildrcn,
laying that Ms wife wu n dear friend of tho
Empires Josephine, lu nn album of Mrs. Dal
ton's ho once wrote Ms name P. 8. U. Ney.
Three Initials were for Peter Staart Michel
Ney. The father of Manhal Ney wu named
retsr sad his own name wu Michel.
On one occasion P. S. Nay wu found holp-
lusly Intoxicated, and Captain Houitoa order
ed him to be brongbt op on a hone. He wu
aohalplcisthathoooolanotaltln tho saddle,
but wu bold oncreuwia*. At the house of
Captain Houston, Nay uld:
"la this tho way you treat tha duke of El-
chlogcu?"
REMARK ABLCnXnEMRLANt’ES.
Now as to points of naomblaace between
the marshal of France and P. S. Nay. Motor
Foote glvu three In consistent shape. Aa to
ago, tha manhal wu born In 1769, and In 1837
would have been 68. That wu P. S Ney'aago
In that year. As to plan of birth, Marshal
Ney wai born tn Surlouis, In Lorraine, and
hta father wu by trade n cooper, but Inter be*
came a soldier, and quiet prominent. The
manhal received Me education among tho
monks, end first studied low, becoming a sol
dier later. P. & Ney claimed Lorraine ni hla
blith-place. Aato family, Manhal Nay wu
■ranted through tho inetrumentality of tha
Etaprere Joeephtae, to Aglie Louire Annina, n
lovely end amiable girl, tha intimate Maud of
Mme. Louisa Bonaparte. P.S. Noy, u above
•fated, spoke to Mr* Dalton of hi* wife, and of
tho gnat fritndaMpwhich tho ompnu showed
her. A* to pononal appearance, Marshal Noy
wu of powerful physique. Hla hair wu vary
red; so red that h* wu called by Ms eoldten
the “Bed Lion,” er "Peter the Bad.”
Aato wounds, Manhal Ney at th* battle of
Keyence, In 17W, wu (evenly wounded. Two
S tars later, In n conflict with Anstrlaneavnlry,
• wu captured, after hi* horn had fatten
with him In a ravine, bnt Ma resistance wu
desperate, and ha waa wounded In th* boad by

Four days after Waterloo, Manhal Ney, ad

A CLERO WAX'S OPIXrOX.
Bcv. B W. Barber knew P. S. Ney personal
ly, and studied Mm carefully, at the time he
was In Davie crantr. He discovered that while
Ney wu teaching In IredeU county he wu vis
ited by a stringer, evidently a foreigner, who,
for him days, wu in clou conference with
Nry, and then departed. No one dleooverod
the name of the visitor, who resembled Ney,
and by some wu thonght to be his son. This
occurred about 1830, it Is said, and is ve:
significant. As a mult of h
observations of Ney, Mr. Barber
glvea it u bis opinion that he posieued all the
traite and pccuuiritfu which marked the mar
shal. Hr. Barber uys that once Ney spoke of
Napoleon'* campaigns and of Ma part therein,
to the late Colonel Barber, then a pupil, and a
favorite one. Ney end Barber were reading
Conor, Key's favorite classic, which ho dis
tuned with great force, particularly the strate
gic movements, contrasting the latter with
those of Napoleon, u illustrated in tha lattor’a
campaigns, and incidentally, and with appar
ent unconsciousness, speaking of Ms own port
In the latter. Mr. Buber uys that P. S. Ney
wu In personal appearance the verl-similltade
of the marshal Hla signature a facilmlloof
that of the latter, and letters of the manhal,
compared with some of P. S. Key's, showed no
dissimilarity. Mr. Barber laps, plainly, that
if P. S Ney wu not the manhal he wu an
actor without n peer. Impoitori always be-
tray themselves. In no statement ovormado
by P. & Ney wu the least discrepancy ever
discovered, by carefnl and acute observers,
and tbo lapse of years hu only made the
facts cleuer.
