Mr. Editor —l observed in your is sue of yesterday a card signed by Cor neal S. McCoy, warning all persons from trustjjg me on his account, as I had left his bed and board without just cause or provocation. I therefore take this method of informing the public that lie never had a bed; the board has always been furnished by myself, and as to anybody trusting me on his ac count, I know of none who would trust himself. His credit always has been below par, so much so that he could not get trusted for his own shirting, and now wears some of my under clothing ou his beck slightly altered. Georoiann McCoy.

Tiie Radicals. —The Washington much force; “The small majorities of which the radicals boast, were won by the red hand. But the American peo ple are incapable of continued injustice. —They will respond to the claims of fairness and constitutional right. The radicals may rejoice in their brief tri urnph, but the re-action of conservative patriotism and of a Catholic nationality, will, ere long, assert itself, andwlie South restored to its wonted plae™ in the national legislature.” 110, for Liberia. —The Atlanta Era says that one hundred and sixteen colored persons passed through the city yesterday, enroute for Charleston, whence they wsil take the ship Tor Liberia. They were in charge of Rev. . 11. W. Er&kine of Monrovia, Liberia. Jirskiuc was educa ted several years ago and sent out as a missionary. lie returned a short time ago for his relations, hut was induced by the American Colonization Society to exert his influence upon others. This is a portion of the result.. We learn that there is quite a large number in Charleston ready to sail, These came from Tennessee. Another Fire.— The new and hand some residence of Cos). J. J, Morrison, on Marietta street, was entirely destroyed by fire about 10 o’clock yesterday morning. The family were absent at the time. When first discovered the flames were just burst ing through the roi f. The fire caught in the second story of the house, it is supposed, from the remains of fire left in one of the rooms in the morn ing. It was discovered by some of the em ployees of John 1). Gray& Co’s, rolling mill who immediately ran to the rescue of the property. They were too late to save any portion of the house, but succeeded in saving most of the furniture on the first floor. All above was lost. Wc understand that there was a considerable quantity of family relics, which were esteemed very highly, all of which was lost. The house was one of the handsomest that has been built since the close of the war, and we regret to record its loss. It was insured. Tlius we soe, in less than twelve hours, Col. Morrison has lost two valuable house, which §IO,OOO will scarcely replace. A New and Grand Epoch in Medicine.—Dr, Maggiel is the founder of now Medicine System ! The quantitarians, whose vast internal doses en, feeble the stomach and paralyse the bowels, must give precedence to the man who restores health and appetite, with from one to two of his extraordinary Pills, and cures the most virulent sore with a box or so of his wonderful and alli healing salve. These two great specifics of the Doctor are fast superceding all the stereotyped nostrums of the day. Extraordinary cures hy Dr. Maggiel’* Pills and Salve have opened the eyes of the public to the inefficiency of the (so called) rt medies of others, and.upon which the people have so long depended. Maggiels Pills are not of the class that are swallowed up by the dozen, and of which every box full takeu creates an absolute necessity for another. One or two of Maggiel’s Pills suffices to place the bowels in perfect order, tone the stomach, cre ate an appetite, and render the spirits light and buoyant, 'there is no gripißg, and no reaction in the form of constipation. If ihe liver is af" fected, its functions are restored ; and if the nervous system is feeb e, it is invigorated- This last quality makes the medicines very desirable for the wants of delicate females. Ulcerous and eruptive diseases are literally extinguished by the disenfeotant power of Maggiel’s Salve. Iu fact, it is here announced that Maggiet’s Bilious, Dyspeptic and Diarrhoea Pills cure where all others fail. While for burns, scalds, chilblains, cuts and all abraisinsof the skin Maggiel’s Salve is infallible. Sold by J. Maggiel, New York, aad all Druggists, 25 cents July 7 ly. Mare Chance!
