ihe same chair which we till as these, words are

Yesterday afternoon as a street car was passing
near the canal, ill the vicinity of the cotton
TOlllA, one of the passengers alighting there
from, alighted somewhat, two heavily upon
the sleety, slippery bank of the raging canal •
and he landed in Ihe water (!!) of that tem
pestuous stream ; the cnn onl swept him swiftly
down until, like a drowning man, he caught a
beam of hope and at the same time a beam of
timber which was stretched across the canal;
he remained but a moment in this perilous
situation, for ipiiek s thought, a fellow pas
senger, a noble tried journalist—regardless j
of the fact that bis generous impulses were
abonl to ■■noil a sensation paragraph US well as
ruin a lit..- pair o' pants—rushed w Hilly into

'jT'o* ttion wliieh the eoiwluct of our

respect w>Vb we feel for, and the deference
which we. pay !<b bis native modesty in his de
sire to withhold his name from the public in
ibis connection. We “know a bank a faiier

no bcUer than our friend, have risked and bn t
more, but we shell never look upon the bank
whereon, after the l c cue, our friend made his

(with slight ale rations) the words of that
clever fellow —Longfellow :
“ Aims of gro.it men all remind ns _

Hiking for Next Yrau. Ii p'anLi
throughout the South are tnaniJesting; tlie same
tardiness and indifference about eugneing n--
-- ro laborers for next year as is displayed by
those in this section, tin* business maybe re
ported as exceedingly languid and dull. At
this time last year, and during the Chris I .mss
week of 1805, a freed man could not pass
through our streets without being; asked every
few yards of his progress If lie ‘wanted to
hire;” planters, or tlicir agents, stood at the
corners and entered into lively competition
for the services of tlie freed men. But now
nothing ol this sort i« seen. Negroes desirous
o! hiring are to he seen congregated iu much
smaller numbers than usual, but planters lo en
gage them are seldom to he found. YV e un
derstand that the wages contracted for are not
more than half the sums agreed upon for this
year, and that nearly all tlie planters arc great
ly diminishing their force. Low as are the wages
for which the freedtnen can be engaged, the
demand is not near equal to the supply of la
bor.
The two great causes that have produced
this change are apparent to everybody—they
are the cotton tax and the neglect of iiteir work
[this year by many of the freedmen. Until
j these drawbacks arc removed, there can be no
safe promise of profit from the cotton culture.
We cannot, indeed, understand how any plan
ter can feci himself safe in making contracts
on any basis just now—now, when it is uncer
tain whether tlie tax is to be repealed, and
when we are threatened with a political can
vass throughout the year for the votes oi the
blacks for Radical candidates and measures—
a canvass that will still more distract and ex
cite them, to the neglect of the work which
they contracted to do. —Columbus Sun.

the soldier thought the ball went out through

o’clock, and no one knew the fatal effect of the
shot until noon, wheu one of Mr. Bowen’s mess

him dead. The ball had broke his arm and

MORE EXTRAORDINARY CURES.
Auousta, Ga., November 21, 1867.
This will certify that I have been afilieted with la
cer in tli : root, of ray month. It was so patiitul that
l could not rest night or day. It was with gn at diffi
culty that I could get food enough by it to support*
life. It n s sled all medical i:eairn'-nf, a"d iinadj eat
entirely through the roof of my moaih into tnv nose.
I applied to Dr De Lacek just four weeks ago to
day, aiidam now able to ami ounce, for l In- benefit of
those that may be suffering iron: this terrible disease,
that I am entirely cured of cancer, and restored to
p: rfect health, and :-m as well as l was before being
afilieted. Miss Beului Gum.laud.
I take pleasure in adding my testimony, with hun
dreds in the surrounding Brutes, that 1 have been
quickly cured by Dr. Da Laobk. i bad lost mv :-iu!il
by cio.-ure of pupils, was entirely blind lor lour \ ears.
I)r. l)s Laosb operated for artificial pupil with the

DEAFNESS OF OVER 26 YEARS CURED.
This is to certify that I applied to Dr. Du Lacee
to cure my deafness. I had been deaf for over twen
ty years. I have had a great many doctors to try my
case, and got no good done. I found Dr. De Lacee
success:ul in all ca-es that lie had undertaken, and I
thought i would try once more, although 1 dul not
expect relict, as 1 could not hear a gun at fifty yards,
(surpri-iiu as it nay seem, I have been icstnred to
hearing In five weeks treatment; 1 can understand
wit h ease all conecisation in the room, and can hear a
watch tick at the length of my arm from my head.—
1 am 61 years of age, and would not take ten thousand
dollars for my heal ing.
James Coski.ins, Esq.
ANOTHER EXTRAORDINARY CURE OF
CANCER.
I have been cured of Cancer by Dr. De Lacee,
which had resisted all treatment for live years. My
ea-»c was considered incurable. I have been entirely
well for three months, and was cured in two weeks
by having the monster cle'an cut out, and the hones
scraped beneath it. 1 have been restored as by a mi
racle to health, and know many others in my county
that have been cured of Blindness and Dealness by
Dr. De Lacee. George Daniells, Esq.
This is to cevti fy that I am a stone mason, and while
at work, I was chipping off stone, when a small piece
with mortar flew into my eye, and in three days after
1'..-id lost all useful sight iu my eye. 1 sent to Dr.
De Lacee, and he has restored my sight ill three
weeks’ treatment, so that I am able now to resume
my labor. My sight that lias been restored is beyond
value to me, as I had lost one eye many years ago,
and if I had lost this one I would have been ho po
le -sly Wind. 1 desire ali that may he afilieted to call
upon Dr. De Lacee. John Janey.
This will certify that I have been afilieted with
Blindness and I’uinfui bore Eyes lor the past t n
years, and have been a charge to my friends for the
iast few years, as I had expended ali ray means to re
cover my sight without benefit. 1 applied to l)r. De
Lacf.e lour weeks ago, and through his Surgical and
Medical skill, I am now aic to earn my living, and can
read coarse print with comfort. 1 bear testimony that
Dr. De LiCee lias cured many of Blindness and
Deafness that live iu my county.
