SUNDAY MORNING, JAN. 5, 1808
Miraculous Escape.— Yesterday morn
ing Mr. Ivelser, of this city, accompanied by
liis sister, Mrs. McDowell, ami her infant
about three years of age, .arrived at the
depot of the South Carolina Railroad, in one
of Roddin’s hacks, for the purpose of taking
the morning train to Columbia, which leaves
at half-past four o’clock. Whilst alighting,
and just after Mr. Steadman and the driver
had dismounted, the Augusta down Express
train arrived, and the engineer blew his
whistle as usual when entering the yard of
the road. The horses of the hack became
very much frightened and dashed oil' at a
fearful pace from the depot yard down Line
street, and were in the act of crossing the
track when the train to which we have re
ferred and which was moving with con
siderable rapidity came in contact with it
and disengaged the horses, but the cow
catcher of the locomotive picked up the
carriage, anil although the engineer revers
ed his engine and employed every means to
bring it to a stand still, no stop could lie
effected until the train had traveled a space
of fifty yards. Just. before the stop was ef
fected the hack was literally shivered to
pieces and Mrs. McDowell and her infant,
to whom she courageously clung, were
thrown on one side of the track. Some
bystanders rushed to her rescue, and upon
extricating her from the fragments of the
wreck, were astonished to find that mother
and child were entirely unharmed, not even
a scratch being visible upon the person of
either. This is the most miraculous escape
we have ever recorded. No blame can be
attached either to the driver of any of the
railroad officials, as the aft'air was purely
accidental. —Charleston Courier.
Abe Lincoln.—Wc were born in abou
fifteen miles of the place where it is said Abe
Lincoln was born. Now, we do not intend to
do injustice to any person, or anybody what
ever. But from all we know about the matter,
we infer thatjJAbe Lincoln, the e;od of the Re
publican party, waslke6on of Abraham Enlou;
and further than this, if we have been correctly
informed, Maria liauks, who was cue quarter
negro, was his mother. After old Abe Enlow
had trot tired of her, and had by her George
and William, he induced a stranger, a poor but
houest working man, by the name of Lincoln,
to marry her. Iu between three and five
mouths after the marriage, Abe Lincoln was
born. Now, we ask everybody this question :
is it not strange that you have never read or
seen anything of Abe Lincoln’s early life or
parentage? We know that he married into a
respectable family in Kentucky—the Todd
family—and we believe she has (we don’t know)
been abused by a portion of the press, in alleg
ing that she is a beggar. However this may be,
we know the early history of Abe Lincoln.
[Merced (Cal.) Herald.
Mr. and Mrs. Sumner. —The some time
ago report that Sirs. Sumner was to come
to Washington to preside in her husband’s
establishment has failed of verification, and
the Home Journal of this week has the fol
lowing, indicating that there is no likeli
hood that such will ever be the case :
“ We have good authority for stating that
the differences between Mr. and Mrs.
Charles Sumner, which have caused so
much unpleasant gossip and scandal, have
been finally settled by a permanent separa
tion, with the mutual consent and desire of
both parties, and their best friends. The
direct cause of this separation is simply the
certainty—discovered only too late—that
there exists between the parties an incom
patibility of temperament and opinion upon
certain social questions, which precludes
the possibility of their living happily
together as man and wife,”
(ui-UJccliln Constitutionalist.
Decisions of the Court of Errors-
From the Greeueville Enterprise we get
the following abstract of legal points, de
cided by the Court of Errors at the recent
fall term in Columbia. The points are of
material interest to a majority of our read
ers :
“ The statute of limitations did not run
in this State during the existence of the
stay law.
“ The ordinance of the convention allow
ing parties to prove what was the conside
ration anil value of all contracts, during
the war, is not in violation of the United
States Constitution, nor does it impair the
obligations of contracts.
“It is not in violation of the Constitu
tion of the United States to try criminals
without a presentment of a grand jury.
“ The tax collectors are not compelled
to receive the bills of the Bank of the
State of South Carolina in payment of
taxes.
“ That slavery was not abolished at the
date of President Lincoln’s proclamation,
but ceased to exist when the Slate was
captured.
“ Express companies are liable to be tax
ed on their income.
“ The tax on national banks anil the va
lidity of negro debts were postponed. The
Court decided that the Columbia and Au
gusta Railroad might cross the South Caro
lina Railroad in Columbia. But the case
was retained for a compromise between the
two companies in regard to the crossing
and other matters.
“ The question of the validity and con
stitutionality of the organization of the ju
ries under military orders was argued in
the Court of Appeals, but no decision has
yet been announced.”

Historical Sketch p.y the “ Fat Con
tributor."—Richard Third was one of the
Kings of England who had a wonderful
faculty of bereaving the family of any per
son lie didn’t like. ITe could provide a
funeral with a corpse upon as short notice
as any man in the business, lie couldn’t
be fooled into a bargain-born with ids eye
teeth cut. His nurse let him fall when he
was an infant, and a hump back was the
consequence.
Richard wasn’t always King. lie
belonged to the royal family, to be sure ;
but he was poor at one time, and obtained
a scanty livelihood by publishing an alma
nac. It was called “ Poor. Richard’s Alma
nac.” Old Ben. Franklin did Ids printing.
Richard suffered great discontent in winter,
and frequently alluded to it, particularly if
he had to go on the stage anywhere. This
winter of his discontent was only relieved
by the visits of a little son he had in York,
who made “glorious summer” for him
even in the middle of January.
Goon Neavs from Washington. —We
have before us a letter (says the Montgom
ery Mail) from an eminent lawyer at Wash
ington, who has abundant opportunity of
knowing whereof he speaks, written to the
Central Conservative Executive Committee
of Alabama, in which he says :
“ There is good ground to believe avc can
yet save the white government of Alabama
and avert the threatened evils which lie be
fore us. A case from Mississippi, and per
haps one from Arkansas, will be in the Su
preme Court tliis term and trill be decided,
which Avili test the constitutionality of the
Avliole Congressional legislation. 1 fagainst
it, as (here is no reason to doubt it will be, the
whole business of reconstruction under it
will stop at once. This avc can depend on.”
What They Say.— -The rumor comes
from negroes that Dr. Manic, the Alabama
Radical delegate who pretended to help
represent this county in tlic broke conven
tion of scalawags that recently adjourned
for Avant of funds, declared to a group of
freed men Saturday night, after the recep
tion of the telegram announcing Pope’s re
moval, that “as ‘our Saviour’ is removed,
all we can do is to leave for Liberia.” It is
also stated, on the authority of negroes,
that Stinkee lias Avritten from Atlanta that
he Avid soon return and grtc lectures advis
ing freedmen to go to Liberia. It would
please the people mightily if lie Avould
leave to “ boss ” the colony. No one cares
an iota concerning the Alabama man, as
lie has no influence even Avitli the blacks
and mean Avliites. —Columbus Sun.
An Author Starved to Death. —Maj.
W. Huntley, a writer of some repute, hav
ing written some twenty volumes, besides
having contributed largely to the press of
the United States, and foreign correspond
ent to the London Journal for flic past six
years, died very suddenly in Albany, New
York, on the 16th nit. A letter says that
on examination before Coroner Gillespie, it
was found that he died of starvation, his
wife testifying that lie had not eaten any
thing for several days, lie served five
years in the army and navy during the late
war, and for meritorious conduct was pro
moted* to the rank of major. Since 1865 he
has eked out an existence by writing for
the press of New York and Boston when
his health permitted.

Gkntlbmbn : I am well pleased with the result of the
use of the “ Double Refined Poudrette ” on my crops. *K
tried it on both corn and cotton, and am satisfied wher
ever it was applied the yield was more than doubly wb*t
it would have been without it. I regret exceedingly not,
not using it more extensively the present year, but wBl
try to make up my loss by purchasing a larger quantity
uext spring. I regard it as the cheapest, most reliable
and easiest managed fertilizer within my knowledge, &Bd
cheerfully recommend it (as I have tried it thoroughly)
to the farmers of this suction, and particularly to thoi®-
planting cotton, from the fact of its causing it to mature
from ten days to two weeks earlier than it would without
the use of tbe Poudrette. I also used it on my garden
and found it of much benefit to all kiuds of plants.
Very respectfully, Ac.,
G. S. OGLESBY.
Extract from a letter received from Pn.feasor Martin,-
of Hampden, Sidney College, Virginia, dated July Ist,
1867 :
The Double Refined Poudretto is operating like a charm
on my crop, and attracting universal attention from aH
beholders. lam already satisfied that it is the cheapest
and surest renovator of our worn-out lands.
High Shoals, Ga., Oct. 4,1867.
James R. Dey, Esq.: \
Sin: The Double Refined Poudrette I bought for two''
other p;i ties in connection with myself—one of them
used it on cotton and corn, and thinks it answered
tlie other put it on cotton, on very poor giound, and
thinks it doubled his crop. I used it on corn. It answer
ed finely, and was thought by the hand that cultivated
the crop to be fully equal to Rhode's Super-Phosphate. I
also used it on about an acre of cotton, and I am clearly
of opinion that it is the best and cheapest fertilizer in'
use, and I expect to order several tons this winter.
Yours, very respectfully,
ISAAC POWELL. ."
Eli.avili.e, Schley County, Ga., Oct. 4,1867.
The Double Refined Poudrette, purchased of you last
spring, I think, increased my crop of cotton 150 poundC
per acre ; put it upon w-orn out pine land at the rate oi
YOU pounds per acre, drilled in with cotton seed.
Yours, Ac., S. MONTGOMERY.

Deak Sir : I can safely say that your Double Refined
Poudretto is far superior to any other fertilizer for cotton 7
for I have given it a fair trial this season.

James R. Dry, Rsq., President:
Dear Sir: I used the Double Refiued Poudrcttp,
bought of you last spring, on corn. I think It increased
the yield one-half. 1 consider it an excellent manure.
Respectfully, T. HOLCOMBE.

Mr. Janus R. Dey : 7*
Sir: I applied the Double Refiued Poudrette by itsef,
and in combination with other fertilizers, on cotton, anil
am pleased with it; so much so that It is my present ij-_
tent ion to purchase a larger supply of you the next yepr
to apply to my cotton crop.
Yours, very respectfully,
HENRY C. DAVISj
Rocky Mount, Edgecombe, Cos., N. C„ Nov. 13, 1866.
James R. Dey, Esq.:
Sir : In reply to your inquiry of the results of our ex
perience iu the use of your improved Pwudrette, pur
chased of you for this year's cotton crop, we would 'hie
leave to say that the present season has been one qulfe
unfavorable to the action of all fertilizers.
Several kinds qf manures were used by us, with tto
exception vj your Poudrette, with littleor no effect |o
the crop.
Where the Poudrette was used It gave us near half ■’
bale more per aere, and caused the Cotton to open r :.c a
earlier, anil we would therefore recommend the saS*i»
a concentrated manure for the growtti of cotton, as well
as improvement to the soil.

IkF" FAITH WELL FOUNDED.—In old times, at the
commencement of every season, it was the fashion to
take a strong cathartic as a safeguard Against a change
of temperature. It was a worse than senseless practice.
The people of onr day understand the matter better.—
Instead of depleting the system they reinforce it. In
the method they adopt they exhibit a wise discrimina
tion. Instead of resorting to the vitiated stimulants of
commerce, or any of the compounds derived from them,
they put their faith in the only absolutely pure invigo
rant procurable in the market—HOSTBTTER'S STOM
ACH BITTERS. Their faith is well founded. Never
has auy tonic medicine been prepared with such scrupu
lous precision and conscientious care. It is a vegetable
compound, of which every ingredient is sound, whole
some, and medicinal, in the true sense of the word.—
Now, we have three promineut national complaints.
One-lialf of five adult population of the United States
suffer more or less, either from diseases of the stomach,
deiangements of the liver, or aifections of tho kidneys.
In no oilier land under Heaven are these maladies so
general as iu this country, and HOSTETTER’S BIT
TERS is a specific for them all, unless organic in their
origin, and, therefore, beyond cure. And let those who
are fortunate enough to be exempt from them at present
understand one great fact, viz: that an occasional use of
tliis vitalizing tonic will as certainly prevent them as
the sun will prevent the earth from freezing where its
genial beams descend. decl-tls

fURIFYYOUR BLOOD!
Hurley’s Sarsaparilla.
Os all the medicines that have been discovered dur‘
ing the present age for the “ thousand ills that flesh is
heir to,” none equal this wonderfu preparation. Only
ten years have elapsed since the discoverer (who spent
a decade In studying experiments, and prefecting it)
first introduced it to the public, and it is already re
-sognized by- the most eminent physicians in all parts
of the country, to be the most surprising and effective
remedy for certain diseases of which they have any
knowledge.
All other Compounds or Syrups of this root have
hitherto failed to command the sanction of the Facul
ty, because on being tested, they have been found to
contain noxious ingredients, which neutralize the good
effects of the Sarsaparilla, and oftentimes injure the
healthof the patieut. It is not so with HURLEY’S
preparation.
This is the pure and genuine extract of the root, and
and will, on trial, he found to effect a certain and per
fect cure of the following complaints and diseases:
Affections of the Bones, Habitual Costiveness,
Debility, Diseases of the Kidneys, Dyspep
sia, Erysepilas, Female Irregulari
ities, Fistula, all Skin Diseases,
Liver Complaint, Indiges
tion, Piles, Pulmonary
Diseases. Syphilis,
Scrofula or
King's
Evil.
HURLEY’S AGUE TONIG.
PERFECTLY RELIABLE.
The only remedy for Chills and Fever or Ague and
Fever that is or can he depended upon is Hurley’s
Ague Tonic. There have been thousands cured by
using it who had tried the usual remedies without
benefit; but in no case JiaS
Hurley’s Ague Tonic
failed to effect, a cure. AU who have used it
cheerfully tell their afflicted friends ol it, as a sure and
certain cure for chills and fever. Any one stifforing
from the chills would consult their own Interest hy
'tog to a drug store and buying a boltle. It is
I UtokL.’. to take, compared with others, and will be
ccfßflif to cure all cases of fever and ague or chills and
fever. Send for it to the proprietors,
