AUGUSTA. GhA.
FBIDAT MORNING, NOV. 5, 1869
AT NOTRE DAME DE PARIS.
All who hare attentively read the let
ters passing between Father Hyacinthe
and the Superior of the Carmelite Convent
may remember that the friar was pot con
demned for what he had said in the pulpit
of Notre Dame de Paris, but for his ad
dresses, out of the pulpit, before the Peace
Congress and the clubs of the French Me
tropolis. The Carmelite Superior distinct
ly averred that Father Hyacinthe’s reli
gious exhortations were never under cen
' sure, no matter how latitudinarian they
may have seemed betimes ; but as the rules
of his order were transgressed by mingling
in political discussions, duty compelled the
administering of a paternal rebuke. This
did not suit Father Hyacinthe, and so he
abruptly broke with his monastic chief and
rendered himself liable to excommunica
tion, .lust as his precipitation was a blunder
against good policy, because it put him
apparently in the wrong.
As it may prove interesting to learn how
far Pere Hyacinthe was freely permitted
to go, as a pulpit orator, we reproduce cer
tain extracts from his conferences at Notre
Dams de Paris, which are full of toler
ance, charity and humanity. Considering
the austerity of the Homan Catholic
Church as to doctrinal points, it will be
observed that the friar had few trammels.
Our readers who had the pleasure of hear
ing the Rev. Mr. Holland’s fervid tribute
to the children of Israel, will recognize in
the following passages an equal warmth of
language and a kindred spirit of admira
tion. On the 6th of December, 1868, Father
Hyacinthe said:
“ Did you ever meet a Jew without re
cognizing him ? Did you not almost al
ways admire tlufir, strange but beautiful
faces; their gloomy but attractive coun
tenances, with eyes full of intellect and pas
sion? You could uot help admitting,
though perhaps reluctantly, that here there
flows a pure blood, which, without mixing
itself with other.blood, has come down to
our times proud and aristocratic. Yon
statesmen, you men of thought and politi
cal leading, you teachers of public econo
my, have you ever studied the peculiar or
ganization of the Jewish race ? It has re
sisted in Asia and in Europe all the as
saults of mankind, whilst its external sup
ports were all sunk into the dust. It once
had a state and a royal family—gone are
both for many centuries. It had a priest
hood and a temple of the Most High. There
are some vestiges left of each, but without
any connection with what they formerly
were. The service of their temple is for
gotten ; there is left neither sacrifice, nor
royalty, nor priesthood. But the race has
preserved itself aua mole by its own internal
force. It found the energy within its own
essence to preserve itself in spite of modern
revolutions and of mediaeval barbarity, and
this energy consists in the tradition of its
blood, which is the tradition of a unit God.
“ I know that they say the Jews bear the
mark of Cain on their foreheads, which is
the curse purchased at Mount Calvary. O,
Ido not deny that crime, nor the subse
quent punishment, which lasted fully a
thousand years. But I know, also, that
whilst the Jews said : ‘ His blood may
come upon us and our children ;’ a mightier
voice than theirs had said : ‘ Father, for
give them, they know not what they do.’—
And the Apostle Paul has said : ‘ They are
guilty, but their children will be blessed
for the sake of their ancestors.’ It, there
fore, is the mark of Cain, which I behold ;
not that wrath is eternal, but charity is ;
and charity is the symbol of Abraham, the
great symbol of the family of the Patri
archs, which God had affixed to their fore
heads, and which this race preserves in
spite of themselves and of us.’’
In the same sermon, he referred to the
celebrated John Hl?nry Newman and his
declaration that he had “ never sinned
against the light.” He thus commented on
these memorable words:
“ If this highly gifted man, this generous
heart, this former Protestant, who waited,
if not for the silvery hair of age, yet for the
maturity of his manhood, to return to the
visible unity of the church—if this man
‘ never sinned against the light,’ by what
right dare you, unjust and impetuous men,
stigmatize as liars and prophets of evil all
those who belong to Protestant congrega
tions ? 1 shall never permit yon to do so.
I have just returned from England, the
country of Protestantism,pa?’ excellence, and
I am bound to acknow’edge, in honor and
truth, that I found there not only great
citizens, but likewise great Christians,
whenever I held out my hand, exchanged
my thoughts, or touched their souls with
my own—and this ought to be clone in order
to recognize the value of men. I well know
that there are limits ; there is even a deep
chasm of separation. But is it not faith
which removes mountains? Is it not
charity which bridges every gap ? Not im
petuous discussions nor embittered con
troversies can restore unity, but charity
will do it, benevolence and the noble virtues
of truly Christian hearts. You will, there
fore, let me shake their hands, aud press
these sincere, though earing Christians, to
my heart, and in this embrace will I repeat
my song of praise: 1 How good and how
pleasaDt it is for brethren to dwell iu unity,
if not of the same body, yet of the same
soul, in the invisible unity of the Christian
church and of Jesus Christ.’
In another sermon he had a good word
for Mohammed, inasmuch as he, according
to his mission, hastened the downfall of
Paganism. Thus:
“ I cannot deny that, in spite of its errors
and violent character, the Islamism of onr
days keeps awake the idea and the senti
ment of monotheism among one hundred
millions of people. Prom the coast of
Morocco to the foot, of the Himalaya
Mountains, and from Central Asia to the
heart of Europe, millions of people recog
nize a single God in contrast to the heath
ens. And it is by the sons of Ismael that
this was effected. Ido not intend to re
proach the uniust contemners of the Mo
hammedans. They censure the Moslems,
aud they are excusable in their censures,
but they should not go beyond the just
limits. Better would it be, at any rate, to
commence at home, aud complain and cen
sure the ruin of our own Christian civili
zation. You say that you are the doctors?
Go, then, aud heal yourselves.”
It has been well said that if such noble
sentiments could without any reproof be
uttered publicly in the church of Notre
Dame, Father Hyacinths must have been
hard to please, if he could not at least stick
to the pulpit and refrain from the doubtful
atmosphere of political gatherings. Be this
as it may, we can verv readily, for the sake
of such heart-throbbings, forgive an error
of judgment in other matters, if indeed we
have the right to regard it in the character
of a blunder or a sin. Where there is so
much of divine love for all humanity
there must be virtue enough to cover a
multitude of indiscretions ; and now that
the rabble 'have retired from their prey we
get a sun-light glimpse of the ex-friar
instead of the dusty distortion of a New
York masquerade.
Infernal.— Mr. Oliver Dyer, the per
son who concocted the “ Wickedest Man”
sensation, has now come out in a lecture
on “Hell.” He 'thinks men gravitate
toward the devil because the devil is within
them. Orthodox Christians complain of
Swkdbnburg because he makes heaven
"tangible with houses and fields; but they
are equally material when fumigating their
hearers with Satan’s abode. A man goes
to hell, or does not go, logically. There is
no wrath of God about it; it is all a ques
tion of touching hot iron and getting
singed. Some men love light and will go
to light; some love darkness and will
shrink naturally in to darkness—or hell.—
Heaven not enter the souls of those
who suffocate illumination and prefer the
night of sin. Going, to church is a good
thing; but carrying out the principles of
right is a better thing.
' The Cardiff Statue.— The .Rev. D. B.
Pinch, snuffing the Cardiff monster from
afar, finally betook himself to Western
New York and scientifically investigated
ghe statue. He pronounced it to be com-
Btelof rock-salt and, on a pinch, it may
all that remains of Lot’s
r A Bk* Boy.— lt now appears that Gen.
Butterfield made money, or tried to do
so, while the nation.was in Its “agony.”
Somebddylias brought forth a batch of his
private dispatches addressed to Leonard
W. Jerome. His official position allowed
him many liberties with the telegraph, and
he is said to have kept Jerome posted in
advance. Thus, when the eleventh corps
was used up at Chanccllorsville, Butter
field telegraphed to Jerome “ The boy is
wounded.” When Sickles, with the third
corps, was cut off, he sent another dispatch
thus: “ The boy is badly, wounded.” When
the Confederates had drubbed the Federals
completely, still anotlftr dispatch went
forth, thus: “ Ihe boy , we fear , is mortally
wounded.” Butterfield was found out,
reprimanded and reinstated. Jerome, no
doubt, made a pile for Butterfield and
himself out of the “ nation’s agony.”
West and South.— People talk about a
Western alliance for the South, but it may
be a poor bargain after all. The New York
correspondent of the Charleston Courier
makes wry faces at the West, thus:
“ Business in New York is not promising
“just now. In fact, the Western trade is
“ very bad. The farmers cannot get their
“ price for grain, they are poor and cannot
“ pay their debts, nor can they buy new
“ goods, leaving the Western merchants in
“a very embarrassed condition, with large
“ stocks on hand. This bears on New York,
“ which is not receiving its remittances
“from the chief Western cities, and the
“ position of affairs here now is very
“ similar to what.it was in 1857, previous
“to the great panic. Fortunately the
“ healthy reviving Southern trade steps in,
“ to keep, temporarily at least, our leading
“ merchants in good humor.”
Duplex Elliptic. —Mrs. Livermore,
who has any amount of sand in her giz
zard, was one of the luminaries of the re
cent Woman’s Rights Convention in Con
necticut. She opened the proceedings
thus:
“ Prior to the war Jeff Davis was con
sulted in reference to a change of the State
seal. It was proposed to make it a bale of
cotton with a negro on top asleep; but
Davis said it wouldn’t do; the nigger
might wake up. With the same cry of
freedom you have awakened up the women,
and for all time.”
Even the most pestilent Abolutionist ac
knowledged that if we waked the negro it
would only be" for a time. Just think what
the world is coming to when the women
are waked for eternity!
The Rome-Howler.— According to the
best accounts, Andrew Johnson has re
covered his mettle and is as full of pluck as
ever. He is going to the State Constitu
tional Convention from Green county. He
is as lively “ as a cat on a hot griddle,” and
his tent is pitched right in the midst of his
enemies, that is in Nashville. He will be
sent to Congress in any event, and, at
Brownlow’s death, will be made a Senator.
At tliis moment, he bears the same relation
to Brownlow that the Englishman in the
Wandering Jew did to Morok. He has bet
his chips on seeing the Parson well on his
way to Hades, and the Parson’s days are
tormented with fear le9t Johnson should
win the wager. So, unless the programme
be rudely disturbed and Brownlow prove
too tough, Rome is bound to howl, in spite
of thunder.
Rags. —How many of our readers ever
contemplated the rag ti’ade as an Important
element of commerce ? Very few, we sur
mise ; and yet this traffic is not to be de
spised. Great Britain has a tremendous
yield, and yet. she imports more than
$1,500,000 worth of cotton and woollen odds
and ends. In 1860 Prussia furnished 4,116
tons at about sll2 per ton; Russia, 2,238
tons, and Egypt, 2,483. The United States,
each year, imports 10,000 tons, in addition
to its own enormous supply. We also con
sume twice as much paper as England and
France. Leghorn is the rag market of the
world. Everybody is more or less affected
by rags, and we expect all hands at the
Bath Paper Mill to read this paragraph in
“ tears of joy or smiles of woe.”
Franklin Pierce. —lt is a mistake to
suppose that ex-President Pierce left a
million of dollars. His estate will barely
realize $60,000. He was a gentleman above
bribery, jobbing and present-taking, and
so he died comparatively poor, though
within reach of millions.
Multum in Parvo.—A single bucketful of
water, if it had been available, would have
saved the Stonewall and her precious cargo
of human lives. But, with the negligence
characteristic of Western steamboatmen,
there was “ water, water all around,” and
not a drop to save.
Tubs for Whales. —In the United States
Navy there are now four iron-clads in
commission and twenty-nine more can be
ready for sea in a fortnight. The uumber
of sailing vessels attached to the navy is
fifty. No use bumping up against John
Bull just yet.
The Very Latest.—The last new word
iu the New York vocabulary is “jim
flskism.”
Anew word for an old fashion—that’s
all.
Poor Thing !—We learn from San Frau
cisco that Belle Boyd has been sent to
the State Insane Asylum. She was a wild
creature, but true-hearted in many re
spects, poor woman!
Edgefield Items.— We glean the fol
lowing items from the Edgefield (8. C.)
Advertiser:
The negroes of the town and vicinity are
moving energetically in the matter of build
ing for themselves a church. That is, the
Baptist negroes. We hear of no efforts
among the Methodist negroes.
We are informed that on Wednesday
night, 27th ultimo, the gin house of Mrs.
Gregory, near Richardsonville, was de
stroyed by fire, with a loss of five bales of
cotton.
The Rev. Luther Gwaltney is to be among
us in a day or two, for the express purpose
of visiting the people by whom he is so
warmly beloved. He is to be here on Wed
nesday, the 3d instant, and will preach,
I). V., that night. He will also preach here
Sunday next.
A goodly number of our people, ladies
and gentlemen, are getting ready to attend
the coming Agricultural and Mechanical
Pairs; the one in Columbia, beginning on
the 10th inst., and the one in Macon, Ga.,
beginning on the 16th inst.
Yesterday—Monday, Ist inst.—was sale
day. There was a considerable crowd In
town from the country. A good deal of
land was sold at public outcry. The Thos.
Miller plantation, in Beech Island, was
knocked down at $6,700, cash. The once
much-resorted-to Jeter’s Methodist Church
also went nnder the hammer. The build
ing, with four acres of land, brought $325
—bought by Jno. Rainsford, Esql, near
whose plantation it stands. This money
is to be applied to the repairing of the par
sonage premises in this village.
Late on Monday afternoon last, shortly
after the hands had delivered and stored
their day’s picking, the gin house of John
Rainsford, Esq., at his Burt place, was
discovered to be on lire. It was totally
consumed, aud with it sixty bales of cot
ton. On the same evening, a few hours
later, however, the gin house of Mr. Charlie
Mathis, livipg a mile below the Pine
House, was also discovered to be burning.
It was destroyed, with sixteen bales of
cotton. These plantations are about three
miles apart. Nothing is known as re
gards the origin of the fires, but the strik
ing coincidence of two neighboring gin
houses being burned on the same evening,
very naturally suggests the torch of the in
cendiary.
Gone to Texas.— Yesterday, twenty-six
emigrants passed through here en route
from North Carolina to Texas. They could
bear the dry weather but they didn’t want
to be beholden to any such a State govern
ment as they had. One or two hundred
have left from Forsyth and adjoining coun
ties, and gone to Texas for better pastures
and less vicious Bullocks.

A REGULAR HABIT OF BODY
Is absolutely essential to physical health and clear
ness of intellect. Nor is this all. Beauty of person
cannot eo-exist with an unnatural condition of the
bowels. A free passage of the refuse matter of the
system through these natural waste pipes, is as neces
sary to the purity of the body as the free passage of
the offal of a city through its sewers is necessary to
the health of its inhabitants.
Indigestion is the primary ca’ se of most of the
diseases of the discharging organs, and one of its most
common results is constipation. This complaint,
besides being dangerous In itself, has many disagree
able concomitants—such as an unpleasant breath, a
sallow skin, contaminated blood and bile, hemor
rhoids, headache, loss of memory, and general de
bility.
HOBTETTER’S STOMACH BITTERS remove
all these evils by removing the r immediate cause in
the digestive organs, and regulating the action ot the
intestines. The combination of properties in this
celebrated prepara’ion is one of its chief merits. It
is not merely a stimulant, or a tonic or an anti-biiious
agent, or a nervine, or a blood depurent, or a ca'h.ir
(ic, but all these curative elements judiciously blended
in one powerful restorative. It lends activity and
vigor to the inertond enervated stomach, relieves the
alimentary canal of i’s obstructions, and l ives tone to
the membrane which lines it, gently stimulates the
ill or, braces the nerve«, and cheers tbo animal spirits.
No other remedy possess* s such a variety of hygienic
virtues. It is to these characteristics ibatitowes its
prestige as a household medicine. Experience has
proved that it is as harmless as it is efficacious, and
hence it is as popular with the weaker sex as with the
stronger.
HOSTKTTER’S STOMACH BITTERS is sold in
bo ties only, and the trade mark blown in the glass
and engraved on the label, with our steel engraved
revenue stamp over the cork, is the test of genuine
ness. Beware of counterfeits. nov2 tnov!s

FOR THB CURE OF

r V HE proprietor of thig celebrated medicine iuet
fy claims for It a superiority over all ever offered te
the public for the safe, certain, speedy and permanent
cure of Ague and Fever, or Chills and Fever, whether
of short or long standing. He refers to the entil e.
Western and Southwestern country to bear him testi
mony to the truth of the assertion that In no cas ;
whatever will it fall to cure, If the directions ar. 1
strictly followed and carried out. In a great many
cases a single dose has been sufficient for a cure, an 1
whole families have been cured by a single bottU
with a perfect restoration of the general health. It
is, however, prudent, and in every case more ccrtid •
w cure, If its use la continued in smaller doses for ,
week or two after the disease has been checked, more
especially in difficult and long standing cases
Usually, thin medicine wilt not requite any aid to
keep the bowels in good order ; should the patient
however, require a cathartic medielue after having
taken three or four doses of the Tonic, a single dost
of BULL’S VEGETABLE FAMILY PILLB wi
be sufficient.

cian in Georgia, is certainly one ol the most sensible

wonderfully efficacious. It has not tailed in a single

pretty large country practice, and have daily use ioi
-ome article of the kind. lam free to confess that 1
know of no remedy recommended by the ablest au
thors that is so certain and speedy in its effects. On
the contrary they are uncertain in the extreme. My
object in writing you is to find out upon what terms
I can get the medicine directly from you. If I can
get it upon easy terms, 1 shall use a great deal of it.—
I am aware that the use of such articles is contrary to
the teachings and practice ol a great : ajority of the
regular line of M. D.’s, hut I see no just cause or good
sense in discarding a remedy whieh we know to be
efficient, simply because we may he ignorant of its
combination. For my part, T shall make it a rule to
use all undany meanß ts alleviate suffering human
ity which i may be able to command—not hesi
tating because some o: e more ingenious tt(sn myself
may have learned Its effects first, and the sole
right to secure that knowledge. However, X am by
no means an advocate or supporter oi the thousands
of worthless nostrums that flood the country, that
purport to cure all manner of disease to which hu
