Important to Merchants—The State
lax on Liquors.—The following proclama
tion from Governor Jenkins suspending so
much of the Act of the General Assembly in
relation to the sale ol liquors as hits a retro
spective action, conveys welcome intelligence
to our mercantile friends, tipon whom the en
forcement of this law would be manifestly un
just : -,
Executive Department, )
MILLED&EVILLE, Georoia, [
April 17th, 1800. >
\V hereas, the Act of the General Assembly,
entitled “An Act to levy and collect a tax for
tlie support of the government, for the year
l s el), and for other purposes,” imposes a tax of
twenty cents on every gallon of brandy, gin,
whisky or rum, sold in this State, returns of
sales to be made and the tax paid quarterly, be
ginning with the first of April :
And, whereas, said Act was uot passed until
the 3d March, 1800, and could not be generally
known before the expiration of the first quarter,
whereby great hardship would befall persons
selling in ignorance of such impending tax, and
especially those selling on commission for non
residents :
Now, therefore, in virtue of authority in me
vested by law, I, Charles J. Jenkins, Governor
of the State of Georgia, do hereby suspend the
collection of the tax imposed by the 12th Sec
tion of said Act, upon brandy, gin, whisky, and
rum, for the first quarter only, Including the
months of January, February and March,lß6o,
until the next meeting of the General Assembly.
Tax Collectors will nevertheless require re
turns for said first quarter, as though the col
-1 action of the tax had not been suspended.
Given under my hand and the ««i/ of the
Executive Department, this I7tli day of April,
A D„ 1866.

Governor.
Bombardment of Fort Sumter.—' The
Panorama of the Bombardment of Fort Sumter,
now on exhibition at Masonic Hull, was wit
nessed last night by a large number of citizens,
who expressed their approbation of tlie scenes
which it reproduces in a very enthusiastic man
ner. This afternoon, at three o’clock, an exhibi
tion will be given for the convenience of ladies
and children. Persons who witnessed and par
ticipated in the bombardment recognize in the
work oi tlie artist correct pictures of tlie
original.
The Confederate Dead. —The Richmond
Examiner, of Tuesday, lias a letter from Mr.
Thomas H. Ellis, President of the Hollywood
Cemetery Company, from which we learn that
the number of t lie dead of the Confederate army
buried at Hollywood is 11,075. A register kept,
in which were noted the name, rank, company,
regiment and State of each soldier buried.—
Every precaution was taken to insure regularity
and system in the interments, because it was
anticipated that after the war many removals
Svould be made.
Mr. Ellis says that there is as much proba
bility of certainty in regard to identity, or the
obtaining any particular body asked for, among
those buried in the Hollywood Cemetery, as
exists, perhaps, anywhere else under similar
circumstances.
lie then makes the following suggestion in
regard to these graves: “The view 1 have is
this: With few exceptions, the dead of the
army are buried together in rows, near to each
other, admitting of but a limited number of
walk-ways or avenues. These graves 1 would
have simply remoulded and turfed, with a
small, negt. liead-stone to each, the surname
carved upon the stone, and under the name a
number, referring to the number in the regis
ter, containing all the particulars known or
given, as above stated. The expense of such an
«Al irovrment as this is easily within the (lontrol
<tf the ladies of Richmond, even in our present
depressed condition, and, with you, 1 conli
dently entrust the subject to their hearts and
liaiUtf.”

tlOn of the Richmond ladies to this work.]
There is another great cemetery in Richmond,
“ Oakwood,” where even a larger number were
buried than at Hollywood. The total number
of soldiers interred in Richmond, during the
war, cannot iiill much short of 30,000.
Our friend, Judge Phineus T. Scruggs, says
the Memphis Avalanche, has just, returned from
Mexico, where he lias been on a trip of inspec
tion, and he informs us that he lias determined
to make Cordova liis future home. He is now
in Jackson, Tenn., his present place of resi
dence, and requests us to announce that he will
take pleasure in giving full information in re
gard to that country to every one who may
correspond with him on the subject.
A Fact Settled.— The Loan bill, which has
passed the two Houses of Congress, settles the
fact that there is to be no great or rapid reduc-
S tion of the present “greenback ” circulation.—
. Not more than ten millions of dollars are to bo
retired within six months from this time, or
. more than four millions in any month there
after.
Narrow Escape.— lt is reported that ex-
Scnator Gwin lately had a narrow escape from
death. While writing, iu his room, at one of
the New Orleans forts, a leaf of his manuscript
blew off, ahd Dr. Gwin started for it upon the
run, forgetting the sentinel upon duty. The
negro drew his musket upon him, and pulled
the trigger, but, fortunately, the cap failed to
explode. Had it gone oft', that would have been
lie end of the cx-Senator.
Persistent. —The Pennsylvania Legislature
have again adopted a resolution requesting
Senator Cowan to resign.
Divorces.—'There were sixteen divorces last
week in Hartford, Connecticut.
The Cotton Crop of 1860.
The following is a private letter addressed by
an experienced and intelligent cotton planter of
this State to one of our leading cotton factors,
llis estimate of the crop of this year, it will be
seen, is 1,500,000 bales. His views are not based
upon mere conjecture, but the result, of a close
investigation:
Dear Sir : In reply to your suggestion,
please accept the following estimate. It is not
exact to fractional exactness, lint near enough
for argument and inference. You will allow me
to say that while I do hot rejoice in the present,
iam not despondent of the future. The esti
mate is this :
The crop of ISOO was 4,000,000 bales; the
number of laborers was 1,000,000 black, 350,000
white, thus making an average of ?>% bales per
hand.
I dispose of the black labor thus: Os the
army, dead and alive, 150,000; dead by destitu
tion and disease, 150,000; left field work,
‘300,000 ; black laborers now at work in the cot
ton States, 500,000. These, under the old
regime , by the average above, ought to make
1,875,000 bales.
They will not make so much for these
reasons: ( nder the old regime they were in the
field ()4 hours per week; under the new ar
rangement, 48 hours per week. They thus
must do one-fourth less work than formerly.
But they are not worth as much while at work
as formerly by one-fifth at least. Thus the pos
sible production—l,B7s,ooo bales—must be
diminished one-fourth and one-fifth, leaving
1,000,000 as the probable production of black
laborers.
.j'h® white labor (350,000) I dispose of thus ;
i crippled, and in other employments,
I go,ooo, leaving in the cotton field 125,000.
1 liese, at the above average, make, say 470,000
A( hl to this the. product of black labor,
1,0.,0,000, and we have, total for 1800,1,500,000
bales.
If any are disposed to question the accuracy
of the hours of labor, (and I write what I know)
I will reduce the slave’s hours to sixty per
week, advauce the froedman’s to lil'ty, and that
will make the aggregate 1,600,000. The relative
value in the field I have put too low, but we will
Jet it stand. Many will say it ought to be re
duced one-fourth, instead of one fifth.
An incidental and important fact should not
hf; omitted the rich alluvial lauds, to a lartfc
extent, are idle. The dependence must be on
the hill lands, and the best of these wasted by
the neglect of two or three years.
Take these facts for what they are worth, and
I think they are worth as much as the uncon
sidered trifles of those who are addicted to
looking at the world through a gimlet hole. In
fact, I think they are worth as much as General
Sherman’s dictum, who, after visiting Little
Koek, Arkansas, felt sanguine that a large cot
ton crop would be made. And Liverpool re
peats the prophecy, and cotton falls one fartli
ing! By such absurdities, cotton is beared
down to its present unworthy price.
Very respectfully, yours,
J. W. B.

INFECTED GREENBACKS BURNED.
Treasurer Spinner yesterday received from a
Federal Surgeon at Bowling Green, Ky., the
sum of $19!) in United States currency, tlie
property of small pox patients in the military
hospital at that point, and which he, the sur
geon, deemed injudicious to allow to go into
circulation. Tlie infected money was securely
sealed, and was burned by Treasurer Spinner,
who, on his own responsibility, forwarded tlie
same amount of new greenbacks to the Bowling
Green hospital.
FROM NEW YORK.
New York, April 18.—The strike on
the city railroads continues, with una
bated inconvenience to. travelers. In tlie
forenoon of yesterday the old hands on the
Third Avenue went to work, with the under
standing that their demands would be complied
with, hut tied up on hearing such was not the
company’s intention. On. tlie other lines of
railroad trafie was more or less irregular, and
ceased altogether at 8, p. in. A riot took place
m the neighborhood of Thirtieth street and
Second Avenue. Arrests were made and the
rioters separated without doing much injury.
A meeting ot the drivers took place in Conti
nental Hall, at which enthusiastic speeches
were made and subscriptions raised for the
assistance of the strikers.
Judge Ingraham lias decided, relative to the
claims of Morris Ketelium & Co., on the New

New York, April 18.—The Tribune says:
The Supreme Council of Free Masons of tlie
Southern jurisdiction met again yesterday at
the Templars’ Asylum. Among the visiting
Inspector Generals were Brothers Head, ol'
Now Hampshire, and Rage, of Mississippi. A
long report of Brother Rockwell, of Georgia,
was read on tlie conflicting claims of the two
bodies at the North, each claiming to be tlie
Supreme Council. It was shown that under
tin: constitution of 1786 neither body number
ed among its original number a majority of
those previously recognized by tlie Northern
jurisdiction as members of this Supreme Coun
cil, and consequently neither one is legitimate.
A re-union of the legitimate thirty-thirds in
each council is recommended as the only way
to heal this difficulty. Last evening a magnifi
cent banquet was given at tlie Metropolitan
Hotel, by Martin Collins, to all of the thirty
thirds in the city. Before ils close there was a
display of Masonic friendship by brothers from
almost every State in tlie Union, some of whom
were not long ago opposed to each other in
arms.
New York, April 13.—The Herald's Corn
wall, C. W., special of the 17th iust., says :
Upon the close ofthejjKoi dings to-day the
magistrates, with great Wood natute, revealed on
the street all that had transpired. There have
been four witnesses under examination. One
Welch, of Oakville, near Toronto, testified that
Murphy had asked him to sell the bonds of
the Irish Republic, and that be (Murphy) had
said that $25,000 had been subscribed in To
ronto for the cause ol Irish Independence.—
Detective Spiver testified that on last St.
Patrick’s day Murphy had made a seditious
speech, and said that $25,000 had been sent
from Toronto to O’Mnhony. Mr. Orr, of the
Toronto Globe, testified that, lie reported the
speecli alluded to by Spiver, but was unable to
say whether it was loyal or treasonable. It
seemed to have a disloyal tendency. Cullen,
one of tire prisoners, was examined, but re
fused to criminate himself. Col. Wheeler acts
in the most reckless manner. In passing from
the court room' he returned to Judge Jarvis
tmd - Ai l nknii OW-O , J»OU BOl*ao
thing, sir.” He openly acknowledged his con
nection with the Fenians, and says that Sweeney
will soon lie hereto liberate him. Ex-Attorncv
General McDonald, the prisoner’s counsel, is
obliged to leave for Ottowa to-night. It. is un
certain who will succeed him as counsel for the
defense.
Sparr, one of the St. Albans raiders, Is here,
staying with the sheriff. The whole of the

apprehensions of a raid are subsiding.
New York, April 17.—Reports from South
America via England, dated Buenos Ayres,
March 18th, and Rio Janeiro, March 10th, say
the Brazilian Admiral Towandcre reached Con
ception on the 2lstof February and sought an
interview with Gen. Mitre, the President of the
Argentine Confederation and Commander-in
chief of tlie allied forces, immediately.
No movement was undertaken by the Bra
zilians, and their inactivity was the subject of
severe comment. The fleet under Admiral
Perry is a powerful one, including some iron
clads. The Paraguayans held out determinedly;
made some very daring sorties, crossing the Rio
Parana armed, in canoes, and making attacks
on the vanguard of the Argentines.
It was thought the Brazilians would attempt
a passage of the Parana, and that it would be
effected, but with immense loss to the Allies.
The Paeso de la Patria was more carefully
watched by the Allies since the successes of the
Paraguayan incursion on the invaders side.
Buenos Ayres was tired of the war, as her
financial and other material internal affairs were
disturbed by its continuance.
Almost a panic was produced by French in
fluence on the Provincial Bank of that city.
The merchants proffered aid to the institu
tion, and two private banks came forward, and
one offered $150,000 in silver, and the other
$250,000 iu gold, if it was needed.

Horrible Murder—Seven People Killed for a
Little Money.
Philadelphia, April 11.—A terrible crime
in tile lower section of the city was discovered
this afternoon. A family of seven persons had
been murdered—Christopher Deering, his wife,
niece and fo«r children—on Mr. Deering’s
farm at Point House and Janies Lane. It is
supposed the murders were committed last
Friday by a German laboring on tlie farm. The
crime was discovered this afternoon by finding
tlie bodies of Mr. Deering and his wife in the
barn. One of the children was a baby ten
months old. Money seems to have been the
sole object. Tlie horses and cattle in tlie stable
were found in a famishing condition.
Philadelphia, April 12.—Full reports of
tlie Deering family murder show it to have
been one of the most horrible butcheries of the
age. The press reporters say that the body of
the mother and those of the four children
were found in one corner of the barn, near a
small out-house, which communicated together
by a hole, through which tlie remains of the
victims were brought to view. It seems as
though tlie tiodies were thrown together pell
mell and then covered over with dirt and hay.
Tlie unfQrtuuates were most terribly mangled
about tlie head. A new, sharp and bloody axe
was found in the rear of the dwelling, which
had been used for the bloody work. All the
victims seem to have been struck on the left
side of the forehead, just above tlie eye. With
the axe and tlieu with tlie blade of the murder
ous weapon. The demon finished his horrible
work by cutting the throats of all. One of tlie
little boys was so badly cut that his head
dropped oil when his body was lifted up. The
other boy, when discovered, had his right arm
crooked and partly raised, as though attempt
ing to ward off tlie blow that sent him to eter
nity. Tlie mother was defending her body
from tlie attack of the demon when she was
mercilessly struck down. Tlie babe received
an awful blow on the upper part of tlie breast,
near the shoulder, almost severing one of its
arms, and also another sharp cut on tlie side
of the head.
Probably tlie most correct of the theories ex
pressed is that all this dreadful work was done
on Saturday morning during the abseneeof Mr.
Deering. His body and that of Miss Keating,
his cousin, were found along side of tlie barn,
not far distant from tlie spot where the other
bodies of Mr. Deering and Miss Keating were
covered with hay, one of his feet sticking out.
A little hoy, aged 14 years, wlio lived with tlie
family and worked on the farm, is missing. It
is believed he was also murdered and his body
thrown into a deep well, or one of the many
ditches that abound in that section of the coun
try. Tlie well on tlie premises was partly
searched last night, but no bottom could he
reached. The ditches in the vicinity of tlie
house were also examined without discovering
the body of the missing boy. Tlie search will
be renewed this morning with renewed vigor.
Tlie Ledger says tlie more this murder is ex
amined into tlie more astouuding it appears.
A mother and her four children are butchered,
it, is supposed singly, after being enticed from
home and without leaving any marks of the
hellish deed behind, and then upon the arrival
of tlie husband and niece for them to have been
dealt with in tiie. same manner, and still no
spot of blood found in the house or yard is a
deed surprising. The only rational theory we
have heard is that upon tlie arrival of Mr. Deer
ing and his niece he discovered that his family
were not in the house, aud started after them,
and alter leaving the house was murdered. The
niece then, it is thought, followed her uncle
and was in turn killed in the same manner.
Unfortunately it appears that tlie name of the
supposed murderer is not known by any of tlie
neighbors, nor can any description of him he
given. It is only known at present that he was
a German laborer. The excitement in regard
c* the murder in tlie lower section of the city is
intense.
Later.— An additional victim to the horrible
tragedy down the Neck was discovered this
morning. Tlie body of the missing hoy, Cor
nelius Cary, was found, under a hay stack, with
his skull smashed in with a hammer and his
throat cut. The clothes of the supposed mur
derer are found. Tliej*are stained all over
with blood.
The Bulletin gives Hie following description
of tlie supposed murderer : A German, named
Anthony, or Antonio, aged twenty-eight to
thirty years, height five feet eleven inches, very
muscular, light complexion, light hair, slight
mustache and goatee, pimples on Ills face,
round shoulders, walks slowly, taking long
steps, and speaks imperfect English. The po
lice are making every effort to arrest tlie mur
derer.
The Slavery Question in Brazil.
The Substitution of Free Labor to be Gradual—
iun. (tail the Jncrotixt-etJon. Asiatic
Laborers to be Encouraged, §c.
|From tlic Anglo-Brazilfan Times, (Rio.) Jan. 24.
From all sources the information wc can
glean about the war, is that in a few months—
say two or three—the first blow will be struck,
and let us hope that the termination will then
speedily follow ; but the work will not termi
nate .then. Brazil cannotafford to lie down and
rest like a gorged lion; it will behoove her to
lie up and stirring, and to hasten and do all in
her power to put her house in order, and for
this will want all the talent and patriotism the
empire can afford. Brazil has great resources,
but they are badly developed, and the large
indirect taxation is expensive on account of the
mode of levying, and offers inducement to dis-'
honesty by the premium it gives to smuggling
on the coast. What is wanted firstly is a new
set of men —and some such are certainly to be
found—men who will accept office, not for the
purpose of emolument or patronage, but for
the honor of the position and for the grand ob
ject of leaving behind them a name to be hand
ed down to future generations as a pattern of
what probity and disinterestedness can do for a
country.
Leaving these questions alone, another, and
verily a hydra-lieaded monster, is rearing up
and looming in the future. In a short tiipcand
Brazil will be the only country in the civilized
world where slavery is tolerated. It is now so
crying an evil that all the tendency of public
opinion is against its continuance; people now
commence to see that the two kinds of labor
never can exist iu harmony, and that free labor
inevitably degenerates iu presence of forced.
What is to be done ? No doubt our local
economists will suggest many plans, some un
feasible, some more or less feasible—to enfran
chise all slaves at once, and to repay the owners
by a money compensation, we are quite against.
The enfranchisement must be gradual, and made
in such away that free labor will, as a natural
course, lie found to substitute it. We have no
space, we have no intention of going into the
details of a scheme ; we leave it in abler hands;
but would suggest, and the following is by no
means a new idea, the passing of a law to' the
effect that in a period of years from its passage
there are to be no more slaves employed iu any
town where there is a port along the coast; that
in another period of years the line will be ex
tended to a certain number of leagues, and so
on until in fifty years hence all slaves then are
to be freed indiscriminately of age or sex, and
by that period all the present generation will
have died away.
During the period of the enfranchisement,
government should appoint a proper Board oi
Immigration, and have regular agents abroad,
and at the same time every assistance and facil
ity should be given to any importer of free la
bor, including the Asiatic races—say the Coolie
and the Chinese—by the reimbursement of the
cost of their passage, and by grants of small
plots of land to the importer or the immigrant.
If the Government want any information as to
“ distant ” emigration, let them look to tlic col
onies of Australia, New Zealand, and Mauri
tius. We have already stated that we did not
intend to go into the details of any scheme of
immigration, and we leave the matter here, be
ing confident that once the law of enfranchise
ment is passed, the growers, for their own
sakes, will put the shoulder to the wheel to
work out away to supply the want of slaves ;
the Latin race is rather prone to look to its
government, its head, for support in all difficul
ties ; tint in a case like the present we may hope
that self-interest will arouse Brazil from her in
ertness and make her come out and join the
race ot the strong and the bold, and show in
time a favorable contrast to the great Aimlo-
Saxon republic of the North.
Before any scheme of immigration can be car
ried out laws must tie passed putting all foreign
ers on perfectly equal looting with tlic natives,
allowing (till freedom and full tolerance to every
religion, revising the present laws of marriage,
of settlements and of, inheritance; iu fact,
placing the foreigner iu the position he would
occupy in his own country.
And now our concluding words: we are proud
of Brazil as far as regards her internal resources,
but her statesmen are lacking in energy and in
true patriotic honesty of purpose. Were they
to follow iu the footsteps of the head of this
great empire they would prove themselves more
equal to the task they have undertaken than
they have hitherto, and instill some energy into
this mighty land.
Tiie Savannah Republican clip
the following from a recent letter from Savan
nah to the Tallahassee Sentinel. It Explains the
reason why the Republican continues under the
control of Mr. Hayes. The letter says :
“ An interesting case has just been decided in
this city by arbitration. It will be recollected
that at the capture of Savannah by Gen. Sher
man, the Republican office was turned over to
Mr. John E. Hayes, who has, since that time,
been publishing the same. Recently, the Presi
dent issued an order restoring the property to
its former proprietor, Mr. F. W. Sims. Mr
Hayes having stocked the office with ne w ma

awarded the office to Mr. Hayes on payment of
a consideration to Mr. Sims, and the paper will
therefore continue under the auspices of the
former.”

KT WE HAVE LEARNED NOT TO BE
astonished at anything. Years of experience and a
correspondence extending throughout all nationalities
of the habitable globe, have turned theories into facts
and established a basis from which we need not err.—
We are not surprised at such facts as the following,
although the persons who write them are. We know
the persons and circumstances, hence feel at liberty to
endorse their statements:
“New Bedford, Mass., Nov. 24,1863.
Dear Sir: I have been afilicted many years with
severe prostrating cramps in my limbs, cold feet and
hands, and a general disordered system. Physicians
and medicines failed to relieve me. While visiting
some friends in New York who were using Plantation
Bitters, they prevailed upon me to try them. I com
menced with a small wine glassful alter dinner. Feel
ing hotter by degrees, in a few days I was astonished
to find the coldness and cramps had entirely left me,
and I could sleep the night through, which X have not
done for years. X feel like another being. My appe
tite and strength have also greatly improved by the
use of the Plantation Bitters.
Respectfully, Judith Rhssel.”
“ Rekdsburt, Wis., Sept. 16,1863.
* * * “I have been in the army hospital
for fourteen months—speechless and nearly dead. At
Alton, 111., they gave me a bottle of Plantation Bit
ters. * * * Three bottles restored my speech and
cured me. * * *
C. A. Ft, acts.”
Tho following is from the manager of the Union
Home School for the children of volunteers:
“ Havemeyer Mansion, 57th St., )
New York, August 2,1863. \
Dr. Drake: Your wonderful Plantation Bitters
have been given to some of our little children suffer
ing from weakness and weak lungs, with most happy
effect. One fittfe girl in particular, with pains in her
head, loss of appetite and daily wasting consumption,
on whom all medical skill had been exhausted, has
been entirely restored. We commenced with but a
teaspoonful of Bitters a day. Her appetite and
strength rapidly Increased, and she is now well.
Respectfully, Mrs. O. M. Deyob.”
* * * “I owe much to you, for I verily
believe the Plantation Bitters have saved my life.
Rev. W. H. Waggoner, Madrid, N. Y.”
* * * ii Thou wilt send me two bottles
more of thy Plantation Bitters. My wife has been
greatly benefited by their use.
Thy friend, Asa Corrin, Philadelphia, Pa.”

Dyspepsia, and had to abandon preaching. * *
The Plantation Bitters have cured me.

ters to hundreds of our disabled soldiers with the
most astonishing effect. G. W. D. Andrews,

* * * “The Plantation Bitters have
cured me of Liver Complaint, of which I was laid up
prostrate, and had to abandon my business.
H. B. Kingsley, Cleveland, Ohio.”

SOUTHERN
LEG AND ARM CO.,
MADISON, GA.
THE Artificial Legs aiul Arms(Uren’s Patent)
manufactured by this Company, have met with
the unqualified approval of the most skillful and dis
tinguished Surgeons and men of science in France and
England; and after the closest and most rigid exami
nation in this country, a Commission was issued by
the Surgeon General of the United States, in his
“ Circular Order,” May 13th, 1865, to have them fur
nished to each soldier who had lost a limb in the Fed
eral service.
THEY ARE CONSTRUCTED OF WILLOW
COVERED WITH RAW-IIIDE, HIGHLY
ENAMELED, FLESH COLOR, IMPER
VIOUS TO WATER AND UNAF
FECTED BY HEAT.
A Medium Size Arm weight* only 31
ounces, ami a Leg from i to 0 pound..
Notwithstanding their lightness they are very dura
ble, requiring hut little expense to keep them in order,
und so simple in their construction that a common me
chanic can make any necessary repairs in a few min
utes, and so strong that it is impossible to split it with
an axe or break it with reasonable force.
We imitate nature to the life, and make the limb
the shape of the corresponding leg or arm, and finish
it as perfectly as possible. The natural motion very
often is so perfect that in large number of cases it is
impossible to tell which is the artittcial from the sound
limb.
THE ARM
is the wonder of the age and challenges the admiration
of the world. A person whose stump is one or more
inches in length and retains a-healthy degree of force
and rigidity, can, with this arm, at will,
Raise the Artificial Hand to his Mouth, Forehead or
even to the top or hack of his Head,
Put on or take off his Hat,
CarryTiis Valise or Cloak, •»
Use the Hoe, Axe or Plough Handles,
Roll a Wheelbarrow,
And by securing a knife, fork, pen, nail brush or other
implement into the port of the band prepared for lt,»
he can
Cut his Food and Carry it to his Mouth,
Write witli Respectable Clearness,
Wash the Remaining Hand, I
Play the Violin,
Hold the Reins in Driving, etc., etc.
the Leg
is equally as useful and beautiful, and as perfect a
piece of inechanicism as the arm. The ankle joint is
so constructed as-to give the natural motion with the
assistance of the toe joints to the foot, which being
connected to the upper part of the leg by artittcial
cords running over pulleys, secures a proper lever
power, the whble resting upon a buffbase, making the
step light, elastic, natural and easy. Persons wearing
one of these legs
Readily Walk Five Miles—Plough all day long,
Do Carpenter or Cabinet Work,
Go Up and Down Stairs, witli ease,
Mount and Dismount a Horse,
And with practice Run, Jump and Dance,
With two Artificial Legs Walk two miles Without
Resting,
Drive a Wagon—Make Salesmen or Expressmen,
Telegraph Operators, d:c.
