The Plunderers of the War. TjFttTHKU BTA’f Gl-IEMTH IN REGARD Tp THE BOOTY .GATHERED DROUTH QAivORtiTNA. A correspondent of the Cincinnati Com mercial writes: The threq boxes of eoHeyted .treassmfe; re cently brought forth from the vaults of the War Department at Washington, are the property of citizens of Camden, South Caro lina. The gold and silver, as well as the principal portion of the Confederate notes and bonds, liclong to the old Camden Bank. The value pf the diamonds and silver ware has been very greatly over estimated by your Washington correspondent. Upon thd approach of Hherman’s army upon Camden, the citizens of the village collected their jewelry, silver and plated ware, and deposited the same in the safes of the Bank of Camden. The safes were load ed in wagons, and the owners thereof sought safety for their treasure iu flight; but the foragers—enterprising fellows, who were always about a day’s march in advance of the army—came upon them not far from the Catawba river, and compelled a surrender. The captors were composed of two de tachments, one from the Third Brigade, First Division, Twentieth. Army Corps, and the other from the Fourteenth Army Corps. It was the usual custom of the foragers to confiscate and divide captured property, but as some disagreement sprung up as to the proper division, neither party feeling disposed to surrender their acquired bank ing privileges, it was decided to deliver the sales unopened to the Provost Marshal of the Army of Georgia. The safes were opened bv that officer and found to contain gold and silver, Confederate bonds and notes, and the diamonds, silver ware and jewelry of the citizens. By order of Gen. Sherman, the mules and wagons were ap propriated for the use of the army, and the other property was boxed up and forward ed to the War Department at Washington, upon the arrival of the army at Goldsboro, N. C. You are certainly mistaken in your state ment in saying that, as the foragers and “bummers” came up to the bridge, they were halted and thoroughly searched, and the articles found upon them boxed up and sent to Washington. No order was ever issued to search the “ bummers.” It would have required all the army wagons connect ed witli Sherman’s army to have hauled the plunder collected in one day by the “ bummers,” and nbaudoned the -next. Nor was this property, as a general thing, taken from the dwellings of the inhabitants, but it was found in the fields or the swamps, where it had Ixeen concealed by the own ers. Property thus captured was brought into camp at night, and after being exhibit ed was, in very many instances, abandoned. If the people on the line of march had re mained at home and treated our soldiers with common civility, very few depreda tions would have been committed. In Bouth Carolina it was a vei*y common thing for chivalrous ladies to call our soldiers vandals and Northern hirelings. Os course, neither officers nor soldiers felt very solicit ous concernlner the safety of their worldly effects. Twentieth Army Corps. Squares.

Pursuit of Knowledge in a 9aw Mill. —Last Monday, a German called at Good hue, Andrew & Co.’s saw mill, to gaze in wonder at the various and complicated ma chinery. Among other tilings that he saw was a small circular saw, sawing faster than anything tie ever saw before. Its rapid motion fascinated him; he reached out his right index linger toward its ill-do lined periphery, (for the circumference of a saw in swift motion looks to lie at the base of the teeth, and not their points,) when, to his surprise, the end of his finger disap peared in an instant, and rolled away to the other side of the saw. The man tied up the stump in Ids handkerchief, where upon Mr. Andrews, noticing him, came up and inquired what was the matter. The victim of misplaced confidence replied: “ Misther Andrews, I never Comes to see your mills pelore. I seed dis ting going around so fast, I takes mein vinger to him, like dis, and—mein Gott!” In explaining his first mishap, the German touched the saw with his left forefinger, and that flew off. Turning to Andrews in almost breath less astonishment, the man exclaimed : “ Misther Andrews, I never comes to see your mills peforc; I see him . I never comes to see him again !” Aud, wrapping that finger iuto his handkerchief, he started for a doctor’s office. Clover. —Judge Joseph E. Brown has a small lot, about an acre and a quarter, near Belwood Depot, on the Western and At lantic Road, two mile3 from town, in clo ver. In 1867 it was an old, impoverished sedge.field. Judge Brown had it broken up deep with a No. Peekskill plow, and thoroughly pulverized the soil. Iu March he sowed it iu oats and red clover. Tiie oats yielded well, and were cut in reg ular time. The clover grew off finely, and in 1868 Judge Brown cut it twice, obtain ing over two tons of clover hay. The~clo ver lias not been pastured upon, although a tenant this year has supported a horse, and cow and calf by cutting it as necessity required. The first cutting this year, now being housed, will reach fully ten two horse wagon loads. 'l'his, with what has been used by the tenant, will shqw a large yield for so small a spot. PartuWwho are complaining of the high price or Northern hav, and of the frauds practiced in baling it, will see by this that economy dictates to them to imitate Judge Brown in raising their own hay. —Atlanta Constitution. What a German Says of America — A German writer in Detroit writes in the Abend Post, of that city, about America, in this strain: “ Everything is upside down here; wheat is cheap and bread is dear; harvests are good and farmers are dissatis fied. Knowledge is free and stupidity and bigotry abound. Political freedom exists by the side of party slavery; and, last of ail, railroad humbugs and golden spikes. This last swindle caps the climax. A lau rel-wood tie, with silver end, golden spikes find a silver hammer. Monstrous humbug. Humbug is the King of America, whose subjects are alike the ricli and the poor, the great and the huinble. Even Nature is a humbug, for it is now the last of May and the trees are not green, flowers are not in bloom ; it is cold, and larks and nightin gales have not been heard from. Humbug! The whole thing is a humbug!” Another Homicide in Merriwether. —We regret to hear of another killing scrape a few days since near Rocky Mount. Mr. Wm. Britton shot and instantly killed one of his neighbors, named Lapsey. It appears that Britton, on a rainy day last week, invited Lapsey to go up to Rocky Mount with him. The invitation was ac cepted, an.l while there a good deal of whis ky was consumed. Lapsey became quarrel some, and had several little fusses, being evidently very much beside himself with liquor. Britton finally got him in the bug gy and started home, when suddenly Lap sey fell upon Britton with a large knife, cutting him several times, whereupon Brit ton jumped ont of the buggy, drew his pis tol, and shot Lapsey dead. There was no previous difficulty between the men. This is the talc as reported to us. We suppose this is another of king alcohol’s tragedies. [ Qnfin Star. No Sale.—The Journal dt Messenger sny, General Lewis, qf the Freedmen’s Bureau offered for sale, at public outcry, on the premises, whatever claims the Bureau might have on the armory buildings near this city. It was thought, by Gen. Lewis that the claims would bring several thous and dollars, but he could not get a better bid than $1,635, and he withdrew the claims and stopped the sale. The bidding showed what is thought of the strength or legality of the claims. Weekly Koview of Augusta Market, ©ffia of lljc daiisfifuliomilisi, \ Fs.DiV, June 18, 1889.—P. M.

T H 30 Six Great Remedies OF THE AGE. PURIFY YOUR BLOOD. HIKLIY’S SmmBULl (_)f ALL the remedies that have been discovor fl during the present age for the “ thousand ills th at esh is heir to,” none equal this wonderful prepara tion. Only 16 years have elapsed since the discover er (who spent a decade in studying, experimenting and perfecting it,) first Introduced it to the public, and it is already recognized by the most eminent phy sicians in all parts of the country to be the most sur prising aud effective remedy for certain diseases of which they have knowledge. AH other Compounds or Syrups of this Root have hitherto failed to command the sanction of the Facul ty, because, on being tested, they have lieen founl to contain noxious ingredients, which neutralize the good' effects of the Sarsaparilla, and oftentimes injure the health of the patient It is not so with Hurley’s preparation. This is the pnre and genuine extract of the root, and will, on trial, be found to ellect a certain and perlect cure of the following complaints : Affections or tlxe Bones, Habitual Costive lies*, Debility, Diseases ot the Kid neys. Dlspepsia, Kryslpells, Female Irregularities, Fistula, all Skin Diseases, Liver Complaint, Indigestion, Pilts, Pul monary Diseases, Scro fula, or King’s Evil, Syphilis, aud all - Impurities of the Biood. Hurley’s Ague Tonic. PERFECTLY RELIABLE. The only remedy for Chills and Fever, or Ague and Fever, that is or can he depended upon is HUR LEY’S AGUE TONIC. There have been thousands cured by using it who have tried the usual remedies without benefit. WORTHY OF ATTENTION. To Dr. Tlws. A. Hurley: I hereby certify that during last year I was attack ed with the Ague whilst in Vicksburg, Miss.’ and used several popular medicines with but temporary relief. On reaching home the disease returned In a worse type, if possible, when my medical attendant ordered Quinine fn large doses—frequently as high as 60 grains per day, and which must have coat me near ly SIOO. I consulted Dr. Smith, of LoilUville, and found fie prescribed quinine and arsenic combined, which I refused to take, preferring to let the disease take its course. I was almost bloodless, extremely exhausted, and pionounced with enlarged Liver and Sp een. About this time the advertisement of Hur ley’s Ague Tonic appeared in a city paper, and I de termined to give it a trial. I did so, and have no rea son to regret It. One bottle restored me completely, and since that time I have seen nearly a hundred cases in which it acted with equally happy results, and would certainly recommend »t as preferable to any other tonic before the public.

JAMES RUDDLE & CO., Proprietors, Louisville, Ky. JTo Jo*. Ruddle it Cos., Louisville, Ky.: Gentlemen : This is to certify that I have been for years a sufferer, and have tried all tho Tonics I have heard of or seen advertised, with little or no re lief from any of them. I heard your Hurley Bitters highly spoken of, and tried a bottle, with little faith in it before I commenced, and to my surprise and joy, before I linished one bottle, I felt a great deal better, and firmly believe that on one or two occasions it was the means of saving and prolonging my life. I conscientiously recommend them to all sutterers as the best Bitters known, and advise them always to ask for Dr. T. A. Hurley’s, and have no other. You can use this as you think proper, if it will benefit others. Yours, truly, Ac., JOHN W. DIXON. Lodisvills. Ky., December 10,1868. HR. SEABROOK’B Elixer of Pyrophosphate of Iron and Calisaya.
