CONSTITUTIONALIST. 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.” Square*. 1 Week. f 12 Weeks.

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. A hoss doctor gives the following recipe : FOR A SICO IIOSS take 5 sects wurth rubber 2 sents wurth calomey, 4 scuts wurth sulfur, give the boss onel a day, when the hoss git tisieked, hold up on the inedason. In reply to Ike’s question of “what Mr. Seward meant when lie said he wanted St. Thomas lor a coalini/ station V” Mrs. Parting ton, (after rubbing her forehead thoughtfully for a moment with the bow of her silver spec tacles,) replied, “it must be because it shakes so, Isaac, and is therefore a good place to sift the ashes.” —Hartford Times.

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.

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.

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 MRS.

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.
