Interesting to Travelers.— lt will be
found by reference to our advertising columns
that anew and direct, route lias been lately
opened to St. Louis, Chicago, and the various
important points of the great Northwest. —
From those who have passed over this route,
wc hear the heartiest commendations—smooth
road, sure connections, quick time, affable and
attentive officials, ever on the alert to con
tribute to the comfort, safety and information
of the passengers. Such, in brief, is the sub
stance of the. many encomiums passed on the
road by those whose business or pleasure call**
od them over it. In addition to the fact that
this is tlie shortest route to the Northwest, the
managers of the road, ever ready to accom
modate, have made arrangements to send
via Nashville to Memphis, Mo-
Idle, New Orleans, &c., at the same rate as
**«a*i® Memphis aud Charleston Railroad.—
This must be a pleasant surprise to our travel
er?, and one which they should appreciate, as
it enables them to visit. Nashville, the capital
of Tennessee, lay over there as long ns business
or pleasure may require, and then resume their
journey at will—and at Memphis, if their des
tination be further South, to select, as may be
preferred, cither the rail or one of the most
elegant steamers plowing the majestic Missis
sippi to the desired point. When wo take into
consideration the delay at Chattanooga by any
other route, it will be found that tlio passen
ger can make the above described pleasant cir
cuit and arrive at Memphis, or any point South,
quicker than by the old route.
Capt. W. 11. Morrow, who is not altogether
a stranger in this cily, is the Auditor of the
Nashville and Northwestern Railroad, through
whose management this admirable arrangement
has been effected.
Messrs. Warren, Lane & Cos. arc the repre
sentatives of the road in this city; therefore, all
loss, damage or overcharge can be adjusted
without the necessity of application elsewhere.
We hope our merchants and the traveling pub
lic will consider tbe advantages offered by this
road and give it a fair trial, that a judgment
may be fonned between its merits and those of
the various old routes.
Young Men's Library Association Lec
tures—The first of a series of lectures before
this association will be delivered on Wednes
day evening at Masonic Hail, by Rev. James S.
Lamar. This gentleman’s popularity as tin able
lecturer on the scriptures, and his earnestness
as a preacher of the Word, will not fail to in
sure a large audience and the certainty of an
intellectual entertainment appropriate to the
occasion. Those who have heard Mr. Lamar
treat otber than purely religious subjects, ex
press extreme gratification thereat, aud predict
that on Wednesday night we shall hear some
thing original.
The annual meeting of the association will
occur to-morrow (Monday) evening. Let there
be a full attendance.
Scpeuiou Cocut.—Saturday—Judge Gib
sou presiding. The State vs. Thomas Olive,
murder. The defendant was charged with
killing Eugene Bishop, the sou of the late
Judge James b. Bishop. This case occupied
all the morning. The evidence of the attend
ing physician was that his death ensued from
other causes. The jury retired about
o’clock and returned into court at S o’clock
with a verdict of not guilty. Counsel for the
State, Attorney General Whitehead, F. H. Mil
ler and A. D. Picquet; for the defense, Joseph
Ganahl, W. Milo Olin and T. B. Long, Esqs.—
The court then adjourned until Monday morn
ing, at 9 o’clock. The criminal docket will be
resumed at that time.
A Card. —ln calling attention to the “ card ”
of our brave young friend—Mr. Louis A.
Picquet—which is published elsewhere, we de
sire to commend the noble manner In which
this maimed soldier denounces the use of such
language as has been attributed to him. No
gentleman will seek to reek his vengeance on, or
speak disrespectfully of the family of any man,
however great his dislike of that roan, or how
ever contemptible his private or public life may
appear.
House Talk.—Particular attention is called
to the advertisement of “ Condition Powders.”
A gentleman assures us that by administering
one or two doses of these powders to one of
his horses, which had, notwithstanding unlimit
ed feeding, persistently refused to wax fat, he
was rejoiced to discover a marked change in a
Veiy short time. The animal is now in good
condition.
Sacrilege.—lt will he seen that a reward of
twentj-five dollars is oflered for the apprehen
sion of some persou or persons guilty of
desecrating the resting place of the dead.

From "Washingion.
Washington, January 18.
The Senate’s adjournment from Thursday to
Monday disorganizes the extremists. Its apa
thy is denounced, aud it is almost certain that
the bills changing the Supreme Court and de
grading Hancock will fail of a two-thirds vote
iu tbe Senate.
Benator Anthony’s paper opposes the emas
culation, and letters from soldiers in all parts
ot the country are pouring in protesting against
the degradation imposed .by the bill impairing
the army, and by mustering out Hancock. It
will probably die in the House.
Greene, of tbe Boston Post, telegraphs his cor
respondents here that the excitement through
out New England is intense.
Gen. Hancock writes a letter remonstrating
with the negroes, who, having been provided
with homes, North and West, are abandon
ing the places and spending their earnings
coming back.
The National Bank at Galveston, Texas, has
caased to be a public depository.
In the House the entire day was devoted to
set speeches on Seward’s purchases and the
finances.
Members of the Military Committee consult
ed Grant previous to recent action adverse to
reducing the army. Grant strongly advised
against reduction. He said that over half the
army was now in the unreconstructed Btates,
and in Tennessee and Kentucky; there was a
serious lack of men both in the South aud on
the frontiers. In the department of the lakes
barely enough men had been left to take pro
per care of the lorts.
All quiet at the War Department,
Revenue receipts to-day, $460 000; for the
week, $2,178,000; for thd year, 100,758,000.
National Bank finances are without material
change.
A strong pressure is bearing to continue tbe
Freedmen’s Bureau in full force in Kentucky
and Tennessee.
From .A-tlanta.
Atlanta, January 18.
Gen. Meade sent in a communication, dated
yesterday, to the convention Ibis morning,
which, after acknowledging the receipt of the
resolution asking for pay, says:
I have this day received information from tbe
Treasurer that there are no funds in the Treas
ury at Milledgeville. I have also been reliably
informed that some of the public institutions of
the State have been suffering on account of the
non-payment of the appropriations for their
support. Whether this lailure of payment has
been on account of the want of means in the
State Treasury, or for other reasons, I am not
at present advised. I shall use my best efforts
to secure, without delay, the means of paying
the incidental expenses of the convention, and
at least a portion of the per diem and mileage
of the members. If I find, on investigation,
that any funds which should be in tbe -State
Treasury have been placed beyond my reach, I
may deem it necessary to suspend, temporarily,
the payment of a portion of the current salaries
of all officers who receive their pay cither from
the State Treasury or the State Road.
You will perceive, from the facts above stated,
that it is out of my power at present to comply
with the request of the convention, much as I
desire to do so. In lieu of granting this au
thority, I respectfully request that the requisi
tion of your disbursing agent may bU-scnt to
me for inv approval, that I may see that such
funds of the State, as may become available, be
properly distributed according to the public
necessities.
The convention refused almost unanimously
to suspend the rules to consider a resolution
asking the Federal*authorities to make advances
for payment of convention expenses.
Also tabled a resolution to appoint a com
mittee of three delegates to examine the State
Treasury.
Sections 8 and 0 of “Bill of Rights” of the old
constitution were adopted.
One delegate gave another the lie during to
day’s session, in a quarrel arising out ot the
nou-receipt of pay. Both caught up their
chairs, but violence was averted and mutual
apologies made.
Gen. Meade has issued an order validating
the relief ordinance of the convention, with the
exception that execution is not to be stayed iu
cases of taxes or laborers wages.

direct the sheriffs and tax collectors to enforce
payment. Should any such persons be forci
bly resisted, tbo Major General Commanding

Education of the Horse. —The most
thorough scientific lecture upon the education
of the horse that we have ever heard, wasde
livered by Prof. Harper before his class in this
place on Friday afternoon last. He explained,
in a clear and comprehensive manner, the char
acter of treatment necessary in handling the
various kinds of horses, in order to meet and
remove their various faults, at the same time
exposing many popular errors coucermng the
management of the horse. Mr. Hprper is evi
dently thoroughly versed iu all that pertains to
the education of the horse. His system seems
to be complete iu all its bearings, and is re
markable for its simplicity and for the ease
with which he obtains the most absolute con
trol of the animal. Experiments with several
horses here, of well-known faults, or w hose
owners had abandoned effort to remove them,
exhibited the ease and practicability of his sys
tem. He discards entirely the Rarey theory of
throwing the horse and worrying him, as a
means of gaining control, and acts directly
upon the animal sense. In a word, he edu
cates.
We would advise all persons who are inter
ested in the management of stock not to allow
Prof. H. to pass without availing themselves of
his services. They will receive information
that will be of great value, and that will enable
them to control the most vicious horses with
ease. —Sumter (S. C.) Watchman.
Prof. Harper will be in this city on Tuesday,
the 21st instant, and wiH exhibit a spirited
horse, driven without bridle or lines, and will
lecture publicly on the “ Education of the
Horse.”

Under this treatment "the cancer DROPS OUT
WHOLE the seventh to the twenty -first day. The

medicines. It healed of its own accord, ami now I
am entirely cured of cancer, and able io say to ali that

MORE EXTRAORDINARY CURES.
Auwcsta, eu., November 21, 1867.
This will certify that I have been afflicted with oan
cer iu the root of my mouth. It was so painful that
I could not rest niglit or day. It was with great diffi
culty that I could get food enough by it to support
life. It resisted all medical treatment, and finally eat
entirely through the roof of my mouth into my nose.
I applied to Dr. Db Laobb just four weeks ago to
day, and am now able to announce, for the benefit of
those that may be suffering from this terrible disease,
that I am entirely cured of cqticep, aud restored to
perfect health, ancj am as well as I was before being
afflicted. ' Miss Bbulah Guillard.
1 take pleasure in adding my testimony, with hun
dreds in the surrounding Bta(c% that j have been
quickly cured by Pr. Pf Lac*?- I had lost my sight
by closure of pupijs, Was entirely blind for four years.
Dr. Da Lacki operatdfor artificial pupil with the
most happy results to me, as 1 was restored to perfect
sight in two weeks from the operation, and can read
the finest print in the public journals,
W*. Canfield, Jr.
DEAFNESS OF OVER 20 YEARS CURED.
This is to certify that I applied to Dr. Pg Lacbb
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 gpqd dyne. 1 found Dr. ])b Laces
successful iu all eases that he had undertaken, and I
thought I wmdd try once more, although I did not
expect relief, as I could not hear a gun at fifty yards.
Burprising as it may seem, I have been restored to
hearing in five weeks treatment; I can understand
with ease all conversation in the room, and can hear a
watch tick at the length of cay arm from my head.—
I am 61 years of age, and would not take ten thousand
dollars for my hearing.
Jahks Conklihq, Esq.
ANOTHER EXTRAORDINARY CURE OF
CANCER.
I havo been cured of Cancer by Dr. Du Laces,
■which had resisted all treatment for five year*. My
case was considered incurable. 1 have been entirely
well for throe months, and was cured in two weeks
by having the monster clean out out, and the bones
scraped beneath i(. I itave been restored as by a mi
racle to health, and know many others in my county
that havo been cuied of Blindness and Doalness by
Dr. Db Laceb. Gborqe Uarjells, Esq.
This is to certify that I am a atone mason, and while
at work, 1 was chipping off stone, when a small piece
with moi iar fl?w into my eye, and iu three days after
I had lost all useful sight in my eye. 1 sent to Dr.
Ds Laces, and he has restored my sight in three
weeks’ treatment, so that 1 am able now to resume
my labor. My sight,that has been restored is beyond
value to me, as 1. L*l lost one eye many years ago,
and if I had lost this ope I \vould have been hope
lessly blind. I des(rff »U that may be afflicted to call
upon Dr, Da Laohb. John Janet.
This will certify that I have been afflicled with
Blindness and Painful fore Eyes ior the past ten
years, aud have been a charge to my friends for the
last lew years, as I h id expended all my means to re
cover my sight without benefit. I applied to Dr. De
Lac ee lour weeks ago. and through his Surgicff and
Medical skill, 1 am now ale to earn my living, and can
read coarse print with comiort. I bear testimony that
Drl De Lioee has cured many of Blindness and
Deafness that live in my county.
