The Wtilhalla Courier, of the 13th inst., says: “We have been informed that heavy frosts have fallen during the last few nights in what is known as Horse Cove, N- C. Frost in August! Quite early.” Mr. George Dusenbury, a member of the present Legislature, from Abbeville, died ut his residence, near that village, on Wed nesday last, of a pulmanary affection. In Charleston, on Friday night, a police man picked up a bundle on a door step, containing a male mulatto infant, apparent ly about eight hours old. The corporation adopted the dusky waif. The Orangeburg of Saturday, re ports the death of Mr. Christian Arant, an old anu respectable citizen of that coun ty, on Thrusday morning last. He met with an accident in being thrown from his buggy last Sunday afternoon, by. Which his hip and thigh bone was fractored. It turns out that the original sin of Dr. Mackey, late Collector of Charleston, 8. C., was his refusal to appoint Radical carpet baggers to office uucjcr him. Latest ac counts of the quarrel between him and the opposing elements is, that he Las been in terferriug with the United States officers in the discharge of their duty, and that Secretary' Boutwell has given orders to have him prosecuted according to law. The Wiunsboro News, of the 14th, urges “ formation and drill of a Conservative party in South Carolina,” after the manner of Virginia and Tennessee. The Orangeburg News, a Radical paper, modiiles its position, and announces itself as the advocate of a Conservative Repub lican party in South Carolina. It goes for “ universal suffrage and amucsty on the side of intelligence, honesty and virtue.” All along, this paper has been the hpologist and defender of the “ powers that be ” in this State. On Sunday morning a mulatto, Charles Jacobs, living in the suburbs of Charles ton, went in company with another negro to the residence of a negro, James Sea brook, near the Four Mile House, and shot ami killed the latter in his own door. Al leged cause, jealousy. Jacobs was imme diately arrested by a party of colored men, and subsequently turned over to the city police. His accomplice, Beniamin Glover, is being pursued. State Constable Hubbards informs the Columbia Phcmtx that Wm. Fitzgerald, charged with the murder of Lee Nance, in Newberry, last year, has been arrested in Arkansas. A “ Bcro” Schoolmaster Comes to Grief. —One Major Ames, an extreme Radical and negro school teacher at Seguin, Texas, fell in love with one of his pupils, “ a queenly Ethiopianess.” The last Argus says : “ The news thereof came to the ears of the parents of the youthful maiden.— Hate burned .in the bosom of her dad, who went for our Lothario. He sought the ad vice and assistance of his Mends. A dark cloud gathered over the hopes and fortune or this loil dispenser of education. J ass as our hero had retired for the night, a colored ijelegation waited upon bin}, a«d out of their abundant charity treajted him tq g coat of tar and feathers. After finishing his toilette, they'velocipeded him on a rail for the space of three hours, until he was made to exclaim: ‘ Suffer this thing to finish, and I will depart hence.’ He de parted for parts unknown.” The Chinese are said to pour into Cali fornia like frogs in Egypt, filling dairies, laundries and dough troughs. Sri-UJcchlji Constitutionalist. I A Pi.ack for Missionaries in Georgia. —From the subjoined communication to the Air Line Eagle, It would appear that there is an opening for missionaries In Lumpkin county: “ Mr. Editor : I have lately returned from the Cedar Mountain Mineral Springs, of Lumpkin county, Georgia. Like many' others, I was induced to visit them with a view to be relieved of all the maladies to which human nature is heir. After a stay of twenty days, and having closely ob served everything—having visited various cabins—seen the afllicted —and all the in quiry, I came to the conclusion that we had not found the ‘ pool of Siloam,’ where every one who stepped in was healed. It is true the waters have some medical prop erties—the water being tinctured with gas and other mineral substances which, no doubt, arc beneficial in some cases of dis ease. But there is much more gas through the country than the springs contain. As to the springs being like the negro’s rabbit, ‘ good for everything,’ is an entire mistake. The afflicted are here from all quarters of the country, and but few of the vast num ber who visit this place are in anywise ljcneflted. It is of special benefit to those affected with rheumatism ; but old chronic diseases it produces no beneficial results. “ The water has a tendency to act on the digestive organs to some extent. This is a great place for pastime and an extra ordinary place to spend money. But ac commodations arc scarce—common rough cabins rent at f6 per month, and the com forts of life scarce and remarkably high. Society in the surrounding country not of the highest growth. Sunday seems to be set apart for hunting and other sports. Mr. Editor, this country I consider a great field for missionary operations, as I am in formed that there are youths here from ten to fifteen years of age who never heard a Gospel sermon, nor ever was at preaching till these springs were discovered, and al though I have but little confidence as to the general advantage of the springs, per haps the Good Lord has designed, through this instrumentality, to have the Gospel preached to this people. John D. Howard. i Squares. * 1 Week, i "2 Weeks. h ‘ 8 Weeks. 9 1 Month. = 2 Months. ! 3 Months. • 4 Months. ’ 6 Months. 6 Months. Dat.ton Affairs. —The editor of the At lanta Consltiution went “ up the road ’’ on Saturday night, and reports : “ The crops are needing rain badly. About Dalton, the drought has been long and deadly. Corn is cut off, so that there will hardly be enough for home consump tion", while if rain does not soon come, the crop will realize literally nothing. “ There is a great spirit of improvement in Dalton. Many fine new buildings are going, or to go, up. il The temperance movement is sweeping everything. Mr. Weatherford, anew and eenpei tq ble citizen, died suddenly on Saturday night. He wasTui crying to the depot TV mi some ladies to take the two o’clock train for Chattanooga. They were late and pro ceeded rapidly. He told the ladies to hur ry on, and lie would overtake them They got into the ear. He did iipt come, and they went to the ticket office to hunt him. He was not there. They started the watch man back, down the railroad, to hunt for him. He was found lying dead, a little dis tance off, with his head on the track. The inquest decided that he died with disease of the heart. He was one of a company about to put up large Steam mills in the city. He was wealthy, public spirited, and will be a loss to the place. His sudden and unexpected death has created deep feeling in the community.” Attemptep Escape of John M. Yer ger.—Advices from Jackson, Miss., dated August 11, state an attempt was made by Col. Yerger, who was recently tried by court martial for the killing of Maj. Crane, to effect his escape from the guard house on the ev£*ing of the 10th. The following is the account given: “ By some means, as yet unexplained, he had obtained possession of a key with whiph he could unlock his manacles. His handcuffs have, for the last week or more, been removed by day, aud ouiy fastened on at night. Yesterday the guard, 77 h0 was stationed inside, noticed Yerger, while mounted on a box which served for a wash stand, and on the top of which lie occa sionally mounts to look through his grat ing, in the act of concealing a key in a crevice about the grating. Finding that he was detected, he admitted to the sentinel that it was a key with which lie could unfasten his manacles. lie further stated, so says the guard when he obtained his confidence by professed sym pathy, that ho expected other keys from which he should be able to obtain one that wonld unlock his handcuffs, and if the guard should return the other keys to Mr. Yerger, he should be well paid. When the discovery was reported to the officer of the guard, Yerger said Mrs. Yerger had fur nished him with the key. To-day, in the presence of Mrs. Yerger, lie denies it, and denies having said so_ Prom various cir -cumstauces, it is believed Mrs. Yerger was utterly ignorant of liis possessing the key. The probability is, that a-bribe obtained it from one of the guards, or, as Yerger has since stated, that he obtained it from a prisoner who swept onthis cell, on the pro mise of five dollars in the event of his es cape. The matter is yet surrounded with some mystery.” Rust tn Cotton.—We were conversing yesterday with a gentleman who had just arrived from Hawkinsville, by the Bruns wick Road, who spoke very diacouragingly of the cotton prospects in many portions of Twiggs and Pulaski counties. The rust is playing havoc in many eotton fields, and he showed ns several bolls as large as a thimble, and larger, which he had found on the ground around the stalks. They look ed more like they had been frost-bitten than anything else. Our informant said he did not know how it was in the adjoining counties to those named, but be knows that in many places in Twiggs and Pulaski the cotton plants will yield poorly indeed. [Macon Telegraph, Ylth. The Rich and Poor.—Somebody has well said: “ The rich depend on the labor ing poor for their work ; on the merry poor for their amusement; on the learned poor for their instruction and on the pious poor for their sanctification, Were it not for the poor, how miserably poor would the rich be ; yet with all the dependence on those' who work for, amuse, and instruct them, they affect an independence that is trqly ludicrous.” ' ' ' An Assistant Assessor of Internal Reve nue in West Virginia writes Commissioner Delano thac he went to camp meeting last Sunday, to see if any ope there was selling liqnor without an internal revenue license. He found one party in the act, and. now has him m jail. Laura Keene commences an engagement at Tucker Hall, Raleigh, N.-6., next week. SPECIAL NOTICES. STOCKHOLDERS’ CONVENTION.

JOHN BULL- Looisvillb, Kt., April 93, 1868. febll-eodly . * Harley’s Sarsaparilla and Potash Maintains the secretions, especially time of the skin and kidneys, increases nutrition, and allays morbid Irritability of the nerroup and circulating syßtema. Hence an admirably remedy for debility daring or after a mercurial course, and for the multi farious variety of symptoms which arise, when the health is broken down, as well as by the disease as by its remedy. For Scrofula, it is the most certain cure. DISEASED KIDNEYS, If neglected, are almost certain to end fatally, some times the patient dies of exhaustion and obstinate vonriting; sometimes of suppression of nrine and coma; sometimes in a sudden fit of severe shivering ; and sometimes of a rapid attack of acufe infiamma tion. In the treatment, the golden rule must be ob served, so forcibly stated by Dr. Prout, that modera tion in the quautity is of quite as much consequence as attention to the quality of food. Os alcoholic liquors, sound sherry of tbe drier kinds or small quanties of brandy or Hollands and water are the best. In the medical treatment, HURLEY’S COMPOUND SARSAPARILLA AND POTASH has proved highly bi neficial from its vegetable alkali principles, which entering into the blood, possesses the property of abstracting from it a quantity of nitrogenous mat ter sufficient for its conversion into hipputic ac’.d, anu in this very soluble form is readily excreted, and exr pels disease from the kidneys. It may therefore be -given with confidence (but it will limit, if Dot cure, ; the disease. jelß- A Pbactitiohsk. war PHILOSOPHY OK MARRIAGE. — A NkwOours* or Lectchks, as delivered at the New York Museum of Anatomy, embracing the subjects: How to Live and What to Live For: Youth, Maturity and Old Age; Man hood Generally Reviewed; The Cause of Indigestion; Flatutonceand Nervous DiseasesVccounted for; Marriage Philosophically Considered, Ac.

STANLEY BECKWITH. —o —— T7HE ENTIRE CAPITAL OF THIS COMPANY has been furnished by citizens of Vir ginia and Georgia. It is estimated that over TEN MILLIONS OF DOLLARS are now annually sent North for LIFE INSURANCE, every dollar of which takes so much from Southern vitality. Henceforth let us keep our Investments at home, and we will again assert and maintain our supremacy. This BRANCH OFFICE oilers all inducements for Lite Insurance of a perfect Home Office, with these advantages : The Capital is fhrnisbcd, the expense of commencing operations has been incurred, the success, beyond peradventure, is established, and the whole Capital and Assets of the Home Company stand committed to sustain it. The entire management of the Piedmont is in the hands of Bontbcrn men, and its aim is to sustain Southern interests. Why, then, should Southern men place their money and the inter ests of their wives and children in the hands of Northern men, who, you know, do not love you, and who hove proved that they do not desire your prosperity, and WHOSE CHARTERS FORBID THE INVESTMENT OF ONE CENT FOR YOUR BENEFIT? THE PIEDMONT is not only a thoroughly Southern Company, but pledges itself to invest all fuMls accruing iu Georgia, within the State, uuder the direction of Georgia gentlemen, in whose integrity vou must have entire confidence. THE PIEDMONT gives 87}£ per cent, of net profits to her Policy holders ; issifes Gold Poll cies to those who prefer to pay in Gold, or at Gold standard ; has already declared 40 per cent, dividend on all of Us Life Policies, and, in short, offers all advantages that Southern men could ask. We, therefore, confidently appeal to Southern men to sustain an established and perma nent institution of their own, and we cannot doubt the results. THE PIEDMONT claims to be equal in the privileges and benefits granted its patrons, to any other Company, surpassed by none, and superior to many, and only requests parties wishing to In sure not to do so until they have examined the merits of this established Southern Company.
