WEDNESDAY MOBSIHG. MAY 26.
A Northern Settler’* flews About Lunds
In Georgia.
From Moore*s Rural New Yorker.
I did not apprehend when l wrote my
short letter to the Rural of February Bth,
that the entire North was in a blaze of
excitement, from Maine to Missouri, from
the lakes in the North to Mason and
Dixon’s line in the South, in relation to
emigrating to this sunny clime. But such
is the fact, and from all parts of the North
and West comes the same entreaty for
truthful information of the climate, soil,
and social condition of the people. While
I fully appreciate the earnestness of those
who have solicited a personal reply, still
the magnitude of such a task—when the
number of writers is taken into considera-
tion—would be too laborious for a farmer,
whose business at this season of the year
(we are just in the height of corn plant
ing), is so pressing. I will try in this
sketch to answer honestly and truthfully,
as far as possible, all the questions asked
by the different writers. This shall be no
varnished tale, to deceive the people, and
fill the columns of a paper to delight the
fancy of a fiction reader.
For the first time in our country’s his
tory, the doors of Southern emigration are
thrown wide open, and a people once proud
and happy, with all the comforts of life
around them, are now comparatively poor;
their fortunes gone ; their homes made
desolate, and their fondest hopes crushed.
In this prostrate and helplesß condition,
they invite you, with your money, your
muscle and your energy, to come and help
rebuild, on the ruins and ashes of war, the
coveted temple of prosperity.
The large plantation must be divided in
to glebes of one or two hundred acres, and
the small farmer, with a system of mixed
husbandry and anew mode ofcul'ure, will
soon restore the lost elements of fertility to
the soil. Part of the lands are worn by
excessive cropping, without fertilizing,
and the virgin soil, by the slovenly scratch
ing system of culture, has been nearly ex
hausted. But deeper down lie the mines
of wealth, new farms untouched, which,
by skillful hands and new appliances for
tilling the soil, wili fill the garners with
plenty and wealth to the coffers of the
State. The people are fifty years behind
the times in agriculture, when compared
with the thorough and ’complete system
adopted at the North. Where you find
one man who plows deep, you will find ten
that scarcely plow at all, scratching along
the surface with one-horse scooter-plow, at
an average depth of about three inches.
The first heavy rain washes the surface
soil into the creeks and branches below,
but when plowed deep, not a particle will
be lost. If'clover be the sheet anchor of
American farming, undertaking is the
rudder which guides the ship to a safe
harbor. But, alas ! how little has been
accomplished in laying the foundation for
permanent success in Georgia ! How few
are fields of clover, and fewer still the rods
of underdrains. Yet clover flourishes in
the middle and northern parts, and under
draining would be equally as advantageous
here as, if not more so than, throughout
the North.
Mr. David Dickson, of Hancock county,
before the war, was demonstrating the
practicability of deep and thorough culture
and on naturally poor and sandy land,
made a princely fortune. Dr. Parker, of
Columbia, S. C. (about the same latitude
as this place), in 1857, produced on poor,
worthless land—as it is called—two hun
dred bushels and twelve quarts of shelled
corn upon a single acre, the largest yield
on record. My experience fully corrob
orates these statements, and I firmly be
lieve that, with proper treatment and
tillage, the laud will productive
ness the riohest lands of the North. The
cold, short climate will defeat any eliort to
compete with us.
Lot the same character of emigrants con
centrate here that built Chicago, on the
swampy shores of Lake Michigan; that
has pushed the car of civilization hundreds
of miles’beyond our Western frontier, and
there in the wilderness built cities, reared
factories and developed the mines ! Let
this same energy, skill and capital come
here, whore railroads are built, schools
and churches established, the forests par
tially cleared away, and the fields ready
for the plow, and where the climate favors
every undertaking, and in a few short years
the South will ‘“bloom and blossom as the
rose. ’ ’
This mighty revolution has already be
?;un. The many advantages of this mild,
icalthful climate are becomingknown, and
instead of the tide of emigration flowing to
the West, it is gradually turning South
ward. The proper plan for emigrants
coming South is to settle in communities,
so that by combination the good resulting
from the use of the lurger and more ex
pensive machines, tools and implements,
may bo immediately shared by all. The
great length of the season, and wide scope
for planting, sowing and harvesting, make
this plan practicable.
The Georgia Legislature has recently
passed an act establishing a “Bureau of
Immigration,” with an appropriation of
# 10,000 to direct this current to her soil.
The railroads have reduced the fare to two
cents per mile for exoursionists and others
who are looking for homes in the State.
The hotels have also, in tho principal cities,
agreed on reducod rates for this class of
persons who can show the proper certifi
cates showing their good intentions, etc.
Why are such steps taken if the people
are so bitter toward Northerners? Every
thing has been done to assure tho people
that they will be welcome, and that the
Southern masses are ready and anxious to
meet upon a common platform all those
who como and identify themselves with
the interests of the State.
Tho climate is all that could be asked.
No snow or slosh in Winter,but sufficiently
cold to kill all injurious insects and make
everything healthy and salubrious. No
day is so bot in Summer but that Northern
men can work; tho nights arc cool and re
freshing ; the labor of feeding stock
through a six months Winter saved; roots
of all kinds for foeding purposes can re
main in tho ground, and there is not a
month in tho year we cannot plow and
sow.
You need not expect to see a country so very
prepossessing in appearance at first sight
but if you are able to overlook the dilapi
dation of tho old system of culture and its
consequences, you may behold as lovely
a region as that of the far-famed Italy.
The habits and customs of tho people do
not materially differ irom those of the
North, except perchance, the dusky ser
vants and the odd appearance of the
houses, by having the chimneys built on
tho outside.
In this part of Middle Georgia wo have
all the advantages of the great cotton grow
ing belt without its sickly atmosphere.
Then, too, the grasses and grains (I make
noexeeption)of the more northern latitude*
grow luxuriantly ; fruits are raised in per
fect ioj, and vegetables in rare profusion.
Asa noticeable incident I must mention
the faet that last fall two youDg men from
Baltimore came to Atlanta and commenced
the canning of fruits. They cleared by
this operation $40,000. There can scarce
ly be fouud any of these smaller enter
prises throughout tho South. Cotton is
mainly depended upon for money, and all
these little odds and ends are allowed to go
by default. We need men to develop these
long hidden stores of wealth. We need
mechanics to build along our water courses
new Mauehesters and Lowells, whose spin
dles shall hum to the song of joyous labor.
We need men of muscle for tho farm, the
workshop, and the mines. We need every
class, from the aristocratic capitalist to the
humblest day laborer. There is room for
all. The country is sparsely populated,
the cities and towns small, and the negroes
make very tair laborers when properly di
rected It is astonishing that lands are so
cheap, but after a careful study of the hab
its and customs ot the people this state of
things is not surprising.
In slavery times the negroes were in fact
the only real estate the planters owDed.
Land was bought and worn out (as it was
called) as a wagon or other perishable
property, to make cotton to buy more ne
groes. Y\ hile we find some of the land
good, a greater portion has been abandon
ed to the mercy ot broom-sage, grass
and small pines, for the want of a suffi
cient number of laborers to till and keep it
up. The land was cleared faster than the
popu’ation increased. The lands were
never considered valuable, even when they
were fresh and new. in tho palmiest days
of slavery; but a man’s wealth was counted,
not by the number of acres, but the num
ber of negroes he possessed.
Originally this section was the richest in
the whole State. The timber now left
indicates this, and was the only criterion
went by in locating in this region. White
oak, red oak, white hickory, poplar, chest
nut, and pine mostly abound, and are
found in abundance for all and every pur
pose. The poorest lands will make ten
bushels shell corn per acre. Plowed dee 5
and thoroughly cultivated the product is
often increased one-half. Even at that
rate we can raise more corn to the hand
than on the richest lands in Western New
York. For. while the New York farmer
has only time to break up and plant an
acre, in thi> latitude we can ten. While
the teams ot the former are standing still in
the stable, and being fed through a six
months>\ inter, ours are in the field at
work. Ihe only difference is. we must pay
and Iced a hired man. But when you
learn that we get our laborers at less for
twelve months than you do lor six, the
difference is more than balanced.
The people are awake to all the improve
ments in husbandry, but are unable, in a
majority of cases, to adopt them. Only
one way remains for them to regain their
former wealth, and that is to sell a portion
of their land and improve the balance.
This they propose to do.
I cannot imagine a place better suited
for stock raising, if a man has enough
capital to start right. One thousand sheep
fed upon au acre of land in turnips a single
day, will make it rich enough to produce a
bale of cotton. About four hundred
pounds of good superphosphate will bring
the turnips At that outlay, together
with the sheep, the land is immediately
improved.
Fruit raising will no doubt become a
great business in the South. The peach
is grown without the least trouble, on any
kind of bind, and being so much earlier,
commands the highest price in market.
The water is soft, but pure and good, and
iurnUhed in every field by never-failing
springs. The water power of this section
is ample for mills and manufactories of
every description. The General Assembly
has passed an act, exempting from taxa
tion, for the next five years, all capital
brought to the State and invested in ma
chinery and manufactories.
The soil is divided into two general
classes, commonly known as “stiff red ’
and “gray land. ” The former is a kind
of clay, with a slight admixture of sand,
and best adapted for grain and grass. The
latter is sandy loam, better suited for
cotton. On nearly every plantation these
different soils may be found. The soil has
a good foundation, and will hold the fer
tilizing properties. When properly ma
nured and made rich, the vegetation is
perfectly astonishing.
Please bear in mind that in the list of
drawbacks you will Dot find a single impos
sibility to contend with, and no task half
as herculean as to warm up one of your
Winter days, when the thermometer is in
the teens below zero. Now if you wish to
enjoy a climate so mild and healthful,
where lands are cheap and water good and
pure, come to this part of Georgia. Come
with your wives and children, your neigh
bors and your friends, your household
goods, and your household gods, and build
cities, churches and schools suited to your
tastes and wants. Bring your mechanics
and artisans, your workers of wood and
moulders of iron, your improved stock and
labor saving machines, and on these ruins
will soon appear a dazzling picture of pros
perity.
Good improved farms can be bought at
from $8 to $lO per acre, according to loca
tion, number of acres in timber, and pro
ductiveness of soil. It was only last Tues
day that a farm of eight hundred and fifty
acres sold at sheriff’s sale at $1 10 per
acre. The buildings and fences alone are
worth that amount. The farm of four
hundred acres I only notice to distinguish
maDy others that can be bought in this
neighborhood. A good horse is worth
$200; mules $l5O to $200; cows S3O to
S4O; sheep $2 to $3. All kinds of new
and improved agricultural implements can
be bought in Atlanta. A nucleus of
Northern society is already found here.
Five men from New York, one from Mis
souri, one from California, one from Il
linois, and one from Wisconsin have set
tled in this country.
Yellow fever is not known in this sec
tion, and according to the census of 1860,
there are only two other States in the
Union where a less number die annually of
consumption than in the State of Georgia.
Tho thermometer seldom gets lower than
ten degrees above zero in Winter. Two
days last Summer the mercury reached
nine degrees, while at the same date,
in Rochester, N. Y., it went up to one
hundred and five degrees. It is a great
mistake about the Summers being so op
pressively warm.
As tho season is so far advanced there is
hardly time for a person to come from the
North and make a start this Spring, with
out it be mechanics, day laborers, and
those who contemplate fruit-growing,
stock-growiDg, or some other kindred en
terprise. Now is a good time to look
around; and even if a man should not
conclude to locate, he will never regret
having made the trip. Expenses from
New i ork city for the round trip w>ll not
exceed one hundred dollars. There are
various ways to come: New York, Wash
ington, Richmond, V’a., Weldon, N. C.,
Augusta, Ga , and Madison, Buffalo, N.
Y., Cincinnati, 0., Louisville, Ky., Nash
ville, Tenn., Atlanta, Ga., and Madisop.
By steamer from New York to Savannah
or Charleston may be a trifle cheaper.
Madison is the county seat of Morgan.
It is situated on the Georgia Railroad,
sixty-four miles from Atlanta, and one
hundred and four miles from Augusta;
oontains 2,000 inhabitants, four churches—
Methodist, Baptist,Presbyterian and Epis
copal—a female college, several prepara
tory schools, two papers, and about thirty
stores, and other places of business. A
contemplated Railroad to Eatonton, twenty
two miles distant, will make this place
easy of access from all parts of the State.
The people are intelligent, kind and
hospitable, and I can assure all persons of
the right stamp that they will be kindly
received, and well treated. B. H. True.

The Royal Farming University at Eldcna.
Eldena, a Prussian village of 3000 in
habitants, situated on an arm of the Baltic,
about ninety miles from Berlin, is the seat
of a farming university, which is support
ed by the government.
The Eldena University is designed to
teach farming in all its branches, practical
ly and theoretically, and has for the pur
pose efficient professors and a highly cul
tivated farm of sixteen hundred Morgen,
or about a thousand acres, including a large
botanical garden and an extensive nur
sery. The university and agricultural di
rectors have each comfortable houses, nice
gardens, also horses and carriages for their
private use. There are more than twenty
buildings belonging to the institute,
among which are professors’ dwellings,
lecture rooms, roading room, with many
papers and journals on agriculture from
Germany, France and England, a library,
consisting principally of
works in German, French and English—
(among which are a tew Patent Office Re
ports from Washington) a laboratory, a
beer-brewery (indispensable to the stu
dent-) and many barns and stables. The
number of professors is thirteen. They
lecture on the following subjects: History
and technology of agriculture, chemistry,
botany, geology, the physiology and breed
ing of domestic animals, growing forest
trees, grain and fodder,gardening, manure,
architecture and mathematics, survey
ing, etc. These lectures are generally of
one and a half hour’s duration, com
mencing at 6:30 a. m. in Summer and at
8:30 in Winter and continue until 7 p. m.,
with an intermission of two hours, from 12
till 2. Students are not obliged to aitend
lectures here, as young men in our colleges
attend recitations, but go whenever “‘the
spirit moves them.” This is good for in
dustrious students, but the lazy ones take
advantage of the liberty. The principal
productions of the farm are rye and barley.
From the former bread is made, from the
latter beer. Wheat is rarely eaten here.
The beer is very good, and is also cheap,
being sold at suns undzwanzing Silber
groschen das Achtel, or in our money and
measures about three cents a quart. This
beer is far superior to that (lager beer)
which is sold in the United States for five
cents a glass. Carrots, beets and potatoes
are raised here to a considerable extent,
and fed to the stock. Many persons are
employed on the farm —I have not as yet,
although I have been here three months,
been able to ascertain their number, but
should say that there are from one hun
dred and twenty-five to one hundred and
fitly, nearly half of whom are women, who
work with the men, spreading manure,
spading, threshing, milking, ete. As an
example of the number of laborers employ
ed on the farm, let me tell you that not
long since I saw eight men felling two
beeches. There were four at each tree —
two chopping right handed, and two left.
What would American women say if they
should see over twenty women weeding a
field of barley ! or six in a garden spading
with a man to oversee them! This is an
everyday occurrence here.
Seeing, from my window, the horses and
oxen going and returning from work, I am
reminded of caravans in fairy tales, so
great is their number, and so grotesque
their appearance. The stock consists of
twelve span of horses, eight yoke of oxen,
four bulls (Holland and hort horn) and
over fifty cows of the same breeds, from
fifty to seventy-five Yorkshire and Berk
shire and ‘'last, but not least,”
about eteW* hundred merino sheep, and
fifty to one hundred coarse wooled Lin
colns, and t4t« common sheep of the coun
try.
Getting Horses into Condition.—
To put a bowse in the best looking plight
for ; a!e, he should be fed on grain or corn,
which has bean soaked about forty-eight
hours, and then kept on a floor till it has
sprout ed; it should lie about six inches
thief, a-id hi turned every four or five
Hour*, i- ing watered sometimes to keep it
moist—in short, treated just the same as
makers treat barley prior to being put on
the ki.n to dry: bariey is the best grain tor
a horse when sprouted. Mix one pound
of pound ol rosin, and two
pounds of fenugreek, and give two table
spoonfuls every second or third night, by
shaking it among the feed or giving it in
any mash the horse is fond of. Four
ounces ot antimony mixed with the above,
and give one tablespoonful, will give an
increased lustre to the skin, and will im
prove the Tery worst looking brute in ex
istence. The exercise should be chiefly
walking—no violent sweating and no long
tourneys.
When in the stable, od dry food entire
ly, some farmers recommend clover hay
made Its in clover cut when the seed be
gins to shed : but this is very wroDg, for
that kind of hay is woody in the stems, and
it has not only greatly injured the land by
standing till was old, but ha a decidedly
injurious effect on the horses—producing
coughing, heaves, swelled heels and legs,
and often inflammation in the eyes. The
only way in which it can be given without
dire results, is by cutting it into chaff and
wetting it ; served thus, and some meal
mixed with it, there are those in the coun
try who call it “the perfection hay.” Hay
made from new grass will cause horses to
dung rather looser, but when it is
kept to be old hay it ceases to have that
effect, and in England hay kept over till
the second year a! ways commands a high
er pri*e than “new bay ” In that coun
try, where grain does not ripen till a
month later than in America, the grass is
cut earlier by a month than it is here.
For (arm work, and any other slow work
it is not at all essential that ary great im
portance be attached to a«y particular
method of feeding or to any particular
character of food.
Old dry-stemmed grass, when made into
hay, is doubtless best to be cut up
and wetted to assist the digestion; and
meal which has rathera scouring tendency,
may help to carry off humors wnich would
otherwise be engendered. Bat when good,
wholesome, nutritious hay and oats are fed
the horse should eat dry, for the saliva is
the natural moisture to go into the stom
ach with the food, and it is sure to be much
better mastioated in that state. A little
good chaff mixed with oats will, it not
wetted, cause horses to grind the oats
closer, so that few will pass through whole.

To Cube Blind Staggers.—The fol
lowing cure for the “Blind Staggers,” is
said, by General Hampton, to be infalli
ble :
“Measure a stick from the nostril to the
inner corner of the eye so as not to have
it too long ; sharpen well and run it up
the nostril twisting it around once or twice,
so as to make the nose bleed freely, and it
will give instant relief.” This remedy is
so simple-thc material being always on
hand -that we consider it invaluable to
farmers and horsemen.”
A New Process of Tanning.—We
saw calfskins which had been tanned by
this process in from seven to ten days, and
they appear to equal in every particular
the best French leather. We also saw boots
made from this leather which had been
worn eleven months, and looked as if they
might wear that much longer. This
leather not only equals, but in many
respects is superior to that tanned by the
old. slow process. The inventor has been
careful not to introduce his invention until
its merits were fully tested. Many of our
most prominent citizens are having boots
made from this leather. Tannrng and
dressing all kinds of fur-skins are also in
cluded in this process. It is an excellent
one l'or farmers, who can tan and make
their robes, caps, collars, gloves, and ladies’
furs, at a very great saving. —Buffalo (N.
Y.) Commercial.
Staggers \mong Hogs.—Take one
teaspoonful of sweet oil (or any good oil),
and half the quantity of spirits of Turpen
tine- Mix and shake the oil and turpen
tine well together, then lay the hog down
with the. affected ear up, and pour this
mixture into his ear holding him in that
situation a moment or two, until it gets
well into the head. No further attention
is necessary. I have not lost a case thus
treated for seventeen years.
Weak Eyes in Horses.—Make up a
wash of alum and water which reduce to
blood-heat, and with a quill, blow the
liquid into the eye. After trying the
above preparation three times, take a
piece of alum, as large as the end of one’s
finger, and burning it in the fire r duee it
to powder, and blow it stoutly by the same
procoes into the eye. We have tried burnt
alum on a number of horses that have had
sore eyes, and always found it a valuable
remedy. It will remove all scum and re
store clearness to the eye. —American
Stock Journal.
Handle cows gently if you don’t want
them to kick when being milked. They
won’t kick something hurts them or
they fear something will.
The Absconding Press Agent.—From
the Savannah Republican, of Tuesday,
we get further particulars of the disap
pearance of Thomas Gibbes, the Agent of
the New York Associated Press and West
ern Union Telegraph Company in Savan
nah. (5a last Tuesday he left the city, and
sent a note to his family stating that he
had gone to White Bluff on a fishing ex
cursion, and that he would return on
Thursday. Nobody saw him depart, and
he has not since been heard of. No ac
count of his arrival at White Bluff has
been received, nor have his friends been
able to trace him from the city. The whole
matter is wrapped in mystery up to this
time, as inquiry elicits nothing'to indicate
that he had sufficient reason of any kind
to abscond. Holding the two lucrative po
sitions that he did it. seems strange that ho
should desert Lis family and leave the
country for two or three thousand dollars—
the amount which he took with him in his
flight.
West-Florida to be Sold to Ala
bama. —For many months poet the State
of Alabama has been endeavoring to pur
chase that portion of Florida lyiGg so con
venient to its own territory and known as
West-Florida. For several days the Com
missioners of the two States have been busi
ly engaged in negotiating a settlement.
Yesterday, we understand, the matter was
decided, so far as the representatives of
each State were concerned, as follows:
The portion of Florida west of the Apa
lachicola is sold to the State of Alabama
for the sum of $1,000,000 of Alabama bonds.
The bonds to Joe delivered when the sale is
ratified in accordance with law. This sale
or transfer has to be voted upon by the
people of West Florida, and after being
ratified by tho Alabama and Florida Legis
latures, is to be rejected or approved by
Congress. Some of the details we have not
learned, but the above are the material
facts.
Taming a Ilusbaud.
The trial of Ellen Cook occurred before
the Central Criminal Court of London a
fortnight ago; and the counsel who con
ducted the prosecution did not exaggerate
when he declared the case to be “one of
tho most extraordinary, if not the most ex
traordinary that had ever been laid before
a jury.” The circumstances of the case can
best he understood from the testimony of
Mr. Cook, who, still suffering from the
effects of the discipline administered lo
him in the interest of her sex by the ac
cused, “was carried into the witness box
in a chair, and had a bandage over his
eyes, and appeared very pale and weak.”
He testified that he was the hesband of
the accused, and that he “remembered
Wednesday, the 24th of February.” Well
might he remeber it. On that fatal day,
at 11:30, he had “just finished his break
fast” a fact which seems tq indicate that
Mr. Cook was a man of luxurious habits,
and that it was not a part of Mrs. Cook’s
system to compel her husband to arise at
an uncomfortably early hour in the morn
ing, and to partake of his matutmal meal
by candle light. “We were then the only
persons in the house,” continued Mr.
Cook, and “she said she would be in good
temper all day if I would let her satisfy
herself by tying me down to the bedstead.”
This may seem to be an unusual and even
startliug proposition; but upon reflection,
it will appear to be not unreasonable.
Tosecure the blessing of a wife “in a
good temper all day,” particularly when
that wife is “a very stout woman, aged
41,” is scmithing not to be despised.
Besides, in this rite there was something
symbolical and comforting to the heart of
M rs. Cook. In the eye of the world she
was the weaker vessel; she was subject to
her husband ; bound to honor and obey
him, having no legal existence outside of
him; she was his goods, his chattels, his
household stuff, his field, his barn, his
house, his ox, his ass, ffis anything; he
was her lord, her life, her keeper, her
head, her sovereign. But, in the secret
temple of 42 Star-corner, Bermondsey,
there were solemn rites performed which
compensated for all this outward show of
abasement. There the subject became the
Queen; the monarch sank to his proper
station as the siave; and, in token of his
fealty, submitted to be bound and laid
helpless at the mercy of his ruler. It was
an accustomed certmony, it seems, “she
had tied me down about five times before
this," said Mr. Cook, "and on those occa
sions she untied me herself. Os course,
he did not refuse when asked to submit to
this penitential and symbolical humiliation
for the sixth time, and all the preparations
were made for the ceremony. “I went up
stairs," said the husband, “and she
Drought up a rope, I undressed myself”—
for the ceremony would lose much of its
significance if the victim was permitted to
retain that garment which is the badge of
superiority—“and then she began to tie
me. and tied my feet to the foot of the
bedstead. My left hand was tied to the
left hand side of the bedstead. Next she
tied my right hand to the right hand
side of the bedstead. That was the way I
had been tied before.” And here, had the
former routine not been added to, the cere
mony would have ended: and.after feasting
her eyes upon the spectacle of her lord and
master lying bound and at her mercy, and
exacting from him such confessions of his
own inferiority as she might have deemed
expedient, the avenging priestess would
have loosed her victim and let him go. But
more was to follow. “She got another
bit of rope,” continued the witness, “and
tied me across the body. Having done
this, she touched me to see if I could jump
or make any spring, and then she turned
her back to my face, and I felt a knife.”
Here we are obliged to omit a description
ot what followed. For ten minutes the
sacrificing priestess brandished her reeking
blade, and then, throwing it from her, she
fell upon her victim’s face and gouged out
oue of his eyes. “She did not say a word
when she was cutting me and doing all
this,” said Mr. Cook; the fearful oeremony
was all performed in solemn silence, and
“she left mo tied and went away.”
We have already mentioned that the
Jedge and jury to whom this strange story
was told, took that view of it which “mere
men” might be expected to take. “You
have been found guilty of abominable
cruelty such as has never before been
heard ol in a court of justice,” said the
Judge; “and I sentence you to fifteen
years of penal servitude.” There was ap
plause in the court when the sentence was
pronounced. Had the ease been tried be
fore a female jury and a female Judge, the
result would certainly have been different.
Either Mrs. Ceok would have been pro

the levee is some distance from tne liver’s

only six feet deep. The break is reported

difficult, if not impossible, to close the

J. J. PEARCE & SON,

Ayer’s Sarsaparilla,
FOR PIRIFYISG THE BLOOD.
f] The reputation this ex
cellent medicine enjoys,
y % is derived from its cures,
A/"''many of which are truly
/s Za marvellous. Inveterate
cases of Scrofulous dis
// ou ease, where the system
6eemed saturated with
corruption, have been
—-pC y&eszt purified and cured by it.
y-~_ Scrofulous affections and
disorders, which were ag
48MIMK:" gTavated by the scrofu
ong contamination until
they were painfully afflicting, have been radically
cared in such great numbers in* almost every sec
tion of the country, that the public scarcely need to
be informed of its virtues or uses.
ScroAilous poison is one of the most destructive
enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and unfelt
tenant of the organism undermines the constitution,
and invites the attack of enfeebling or fatal diseases,
without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again,
it seems to breed infection throughout the body, and
then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop
into one or other of its hideous forms, either on the
surface or among the vitals. In the latter, tuber
cles may he suddenly deposited in the lungs or
heart, or tumors formed in the liver, or it snows
its presence by eruptions on the skin, or foul ulcer
ations on some part of the body. Hence the occa
sional use of a bottle of this Sarsaparilla is ad
visable, even when no active symptoms of disease
appear. Persons afflicted with the following com
plaints generally find immediate relief, and, at
length, enre, by the use of this SARSAPARIL
LA: St. Anthony's Fire, Rose or Erysipelas,
Tetter, Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Ringworm,
Sore Eyes, Sore Ears , and other eruptions or
visible forms of Scrofulous disease. Also in the
more concealed forms, as Dyspepsia, Dropsy ,
Heart Disease, Fits, Emlepsy, Neuralgia,
and the various Ulcerous affections of the muscu
lar and ner* ms systems.
Syphilis or Venereal and Mercurial Diseases
are cured by it, though a long time is reqthredfor
subduing these obstinate maladies by any medicine.
But long continued use of this medicine will cure
the complaint. Leucorrhaea or Whites, Uterine
Ulcerations, and Female Diseases, are com
monly soon relieved and ultimately cured by its
purifying and invigorating effect. Minute Direc
tions for each case are found in our Almanac, sup
plied gratis. Rheumatism and Gout, when
caused by accumulations of extraneous matters
in the blood, yield quickly to it, as also Liver
Complaints, Torpidity, Congestion or Inflam
mation of the Liver* and Jaundice, when arising,
as they often do, from the rankling poisons in the
blood. This SARSAPARILLA fs a great re
storer for the strength and vigor of the system.
Those who are Languid and Listless, Despon
dent, Sleepl eBS s and troubled with Nervous Ap
prehensions or Fears, or any of the affections
symptomatic of Weakness, will find ftSmSdiate
relief and convincing evidence of its restorative
power upon trial.
