BY WILLIAM MAKBPBACI THACKERAY. Although I enter not, Yet round about tbe spot Ofttimes I hover; And near the sacred gate, With longing eye* I wait, Eafpeetant of her. Tbe minster tolls out ADOve the city’s rout, And noise and humming. They’ve hushed the minster bell; The organ ’gins to swell; Hhe’* coming, she’s coming ! My Lady comes at last. Timid and stepping fast, And hastening hither, With modest eyes downcast: Hhe comes —she’s here, she’s past— May Heaven go with her ! Kneel undisturbed, fair saint! Pour out your praise or plaint Meekly and duly; I will not-enter there, To sully your pure prayer, With thoughts unruly. But suffer me to pace Bound the forbidden place, Lingering a in'. ute, Like outcast spirits who wait And see, through heaven’s gate, Angels within it. Murder and Suicide. A Well-Known Physician Cuts Hit Chil dren' t Throats and then Cuts Hut Own- Particulars of the Occurrence—A Shocking Sight—Rum Supposed to Be the Cause. L From the New York Herald. ] The Ninth ward of this city was yes terday afternoon the scene of one of the most revolting, heart-rendering cases of child murder and subsequent suicide ever known in this city, for by it a whole family, save the wife and mother, of very respectable people are swept into eternity. Dr. J. J. Connolly, a well to do and very respectable phy&iciun, together with his wife and two beautiful children—one, Mary Anges, two years and seven months old, and the other, Clara Regina, a babe seven months old—have for some time past been living at 143 West Eleventh street. Os late the doctor has, unfortunately, been greatly addicted to strong drink, and was in the habit of returning to his home very much UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF LIQUOR ; but, so far as can be ascertained, was al ways kiod and affable to his family, not withstanding his condition. Yesterday he was not observed by any of the neigh bors to go out, as was his custom ; a fact which they took no heed of 8t the time, or if they chanced to think of it at all, attributed it to the dreadfully stormy condition of tho weather. It now seems that some time during the afternoon he took tho two children and went up stairs to tho second story and there, in the back chamber, locked himself and the little ones in. About four o’clock the people living next door heard Mrs- Con nolly crying and calling out to her bus band to give her the children. So fran tic and persistent were her appeals and so bitter were her sobs, that those who heard her were persuaded something serious was transpiring there among the Jittle family, but yet never onee dream ing of the terrible character of what that something eventually proved to be. One,of the neighbors, who could no longer withstand the pitying appeals of the poor mother for her babes, hurried through the pelting storm to the Ninth procinct station house, where he inform ed the sergeant on duty of the condition or affairs and urged him to seud an officer to the house. Accordingly two patrolmen were dispatched to the doctor’s residence, but upon their arrival there they were REFUSED ADMITTANCE by Mrs. Connolly herself, who came to the door in answer to their call. She, in a very excited and determined man ner, ordered the officers to leave her door, at the same time assuring them that there was nothing wrong within They knew from all indications that something uifusual had taken place, de spite the lady’s assurances to the con trary, and therefore urgod her by all the means in their power to admit them or to tell them where the doctor was. To neither of these requests, would she consent, but stoutly refused to tell them anything at all. They hurriedly returned to the station house and reported to Captain Washburn the state of affairs and their conviction that something of a serious character bad transpired at the house. The captain at once set out for the place, accompanied by two officers, and on their arrival were, as at first, summarily refused admittance. Mrs. Connolly appeared in great grief, but still refused to admit that anything was wrong. In answer to the captain’s in terrogatories she said her husband and children were u, -stairs ; but so far from allowing either Captain Washburn or the officers to go up to them she again pe remptorily ordered them to quit the house. Notwithstanding this Captain Washburn ascended the stairs and tried the door leading into the back chamber, but it was locked. He called to tbe doctor repeatedly, but no answer came. Not knowing exactly what to do under the oireumstan ’es he returned to the street and saw several of the neighbors who live next door on each side of the doctor’s residence and, after consulting with them and hearing their statements, determined to go back and break into the room. This he did, and the sight which there met his gaze beggars all de scription. Policemen long in the service, like the veterans of a hundred battle fields, be come inured to revolting scenes of blood and cruelty, and soon learn to look upon them for a moment perhaps with a pitying eye ard then forever forget them ; but Captain Washburn and the two officers who accompanied him will never, never forget the sight of that room when they entered it about seven o’clock last evening. Stretched upon the bed, which stood with the head against the wall to the right of the door, where the lifeless bodies of the doctor and HIS TWO INNOCENT BABES. The father lay on his back at the side of the bed farthest from the door, having on a shirt, a pair of red flannel drawers, a pair of socks and a pair slippers. The right leg was drawn up towards the body, the right hand was thrown across his chest, and his left hand lay by his side. Close beside him ou the left lay his two .darlings—for he loved them notwithstanding he killed them—both on their backs, the eldest with her head on the pillow while between her little feet lay the head of the baby—her little sister. The children had nothing on but little night slips, which hung loosely j about their bodies. Between them and their lather floating in a pool of blood, , was a little India rubber ball, which | they had evidently been playing with be fore the horrid deed was done. On the side of the !>ed nearest the door lay a huge bread knife, about fourteen inches long, two iuihes wide at the widest part, and sharp almost as a raxor. This was the instrument which had so effectually done the work. It was with this tha't the father had CUT THE CHILDREN’S THROATS and then almost dissevered his own head from his body. The bed was one mass of gore, which trickled down on the floor, where it settled in pools. Over on the opposite side of the room stood a little crib, containing every requisite for the comfort of the children, and they—or the eldest one, at least—had oocupied the night previous. The furniture in the room was of the cottage description, painted green. When the officers entered the room the bodies were stark and cold, which leads to the belief that the terrible crime must have been committed as early as one o’clock at least. Tbe distracted wife and mother followed close behind the officers, and when she saw the forms of all those she held most dear in life drenched ip their* own blood her grief knew no bounds. She iwooned away and was removed by tbe kind-hearted policeman to an apartment on the lower Moor, where she lay for a long time in a perfectly unconscious state. Georgia (state Fair. Office of Georgia State Aoriccl- | tubal Society, > Macon, Ga., June 8, 1871. J To the Farmers of Georgia : The Executive Committee of the State Agricultural Society, and tbe Agricul tural Convention, impressed with the importance of the establishment of active, influential and working agricultural clubs in tbe various counties and neigh borhoods of the State, as essential to our material progress, resolved to send a Special Commissioner of high intelli gence, character, influence and experi ence, to as many counties as practicable, to urge tbe people thereof to form clubs, and thus co-operate efficiently in tbe great work of agricultural improve ment. For this important office, they select ed Mr. Samuel Barnett, of Washington, Wilkes county, who is a native Geor gian, a gentleman of worth, a success ful planter, familiar to an uncommon degree with the whole range of agricul tural subjects, and a clear, ready and in structive speaker, who has already en tered upon the discharge of his duties, aod has done a vast amount of good to wards the practical fulfillment of his mission. I earnestly recommend the farmers of your county to give their hearty co-ope ration to attain the unselfish object of the Society, and exert themselves to se cure a full attendance at the time Mr. Barnett may propose to address you on the general subject of agriculture. The people will be largely benefitted by listening to bis judiciojs counsel, and by adopting the practical suggestions which he will offer. A. H. Colquitt, President Georgia State Agricultural Society. Dav. W. Lewis, Secretary. Office of Georgia State Agricul- ) tural Society, ( Macon, ,10th May, 18711 The County Agricultural Societies will take notice that the Fall Conven tion of the State Agricultural Society will meet in Rome, Georgia, on Tues day, Bth August, at 11 o’clock. The same delegates who were mem bers of the February Convention are member* of the August Convention. Where vacancies have occurred, by re signation or otherwise, tbe name of the individuals chosen to fill the same must be furnished this office by the Ist of July. At that time, tickets for the passage of delegates over the railroad both ways, free, will be forwarded to the Secretary of County Societies. County Societies which failed to elect delegates to tbe February Convention, should hold elections at first monthly meeting, aud return the name of dele gates to this office. Counties which have not yet organiz ed societies, may organize and send delegates. All County Societies are requested to bring up a perfect list of officers and members for the use of this office. Life-members ot the Society aro mem bers of the Convention. Members of tho Executive Committee are ex-officio members of the Conven tion. Ex-Presidents are members of the Convention, Other State Agricultural Societies are requested to send as many dele gates as they have members of Con gress, with credentials signed by their President and Secretary. For delegates so accredited, and who will in due time give notice at this office, the Secretary will make proper exertion to procure the usual passes oyer the railroads of Geor gia. To all above mentioned railroad passes will be sent. Delegates are expected to submit to the Convention, iu writing, full reports of the condition and prospects of the agri culture of their respective counties. Messrs. C. W. Howard, Samuel Bar nett, and D. A. Vason, area committee to consider subjects suitable for discus sion iu the Rome Convention, Und may appoint suitable gentlemen to lead in discussion of assigned themes. Dele gates and all other persona aye requested to give this committee the names .of gen tlemen whose attainments fit them for tbe discussion of particular topics. Ad dress C. W. Howard, Chairman, At lanta, Ga. All delegates and members of the Convention are requested to reach At: lanta Monday* or Monday night, of the 7th August. All who do so will be conveyed iu a special train on Tuesday morning, to Rome, in time for the open ing of the Convention, at'll o’clock. The President of the Western and At lantic Railroad has generously offered this and all other neeessary facilities to the Convention. The approaohiug session of the Con vention will probably form and shape the measures which they* propose to bring before the Legislature to be enacted into law. These measures are various and important ; the stock law or fence law ; the dog law or sheep law ; the fertilizer law, for protection against.adulterated or fraudulently manufactured articles ; the wisest disposition of the Agricultural College fund ; the establishment of chemical stations in connection with ex perimental farms ; tbe practicability of establishing manual labor schools. The whole people are interested in these measures, and all should be fully repre sented in making up the recommenda tions of the Convention. Then let all counties which have not, done so, form County Societies, and send delegates. . By order of A. H. Colquitt, President. Dav. W. Lewis, Secretary. County Agricultural Societies. Office of tee State Agricultu-1 kal Society, > Macon, Ga., May, 1871.) Editors Telegraph and Messenger : The continuously active and working condition of the County Agricultural Societies, were deemed s matter of so much importance that the last Feburary Convention engaged the services of Mr. Barnett, of Wilkes, to visit the County Sooieties and to advise with them upon the ways and means best calculated to secure that important result. Os those interested in the efficiency of County Societies—and it is from their efficiency alone that tbe members can derive pleasure and profit—let me call tbe attention to an article by Mr. New man, of Hancock county, published in the Plantation, and one in the forth coming number of the Farm and Home, by Mr. Barnett, on this subject. These two articles leave but little to be said on the importance—the advantages ofactive working clubs and the means and mode of keeping (hem active and at work. Asa profitable auxiliary, in addition to the suggestions of these gentlemen, allow me to ask the publication in your widely circulated journal of the subjoin ed letter from one of our most success ful planters, giving an acoouut—but too short—of a monthly fair held by the Agricultural Society of Macon county, at Marshallville. The letter speaks for itself. But the main feature and fact to which I write to call the attention of county societies, is that monthly fairs of county societies during the lower, fruit and vegetable and harvest months —say April, May, June, and August— will accomplish as much good to the or ganisations and to the communities in which they exist as any other one in strumentality. Why should not Eaton ton and Milledgeville and Forsyth and Fort Valley—to say nothing of more important centres, like Macon, Ameri' ' oas, Atlanta, Albany, Athens, Griffin— I have their monthly exhibitions of garden, i orchard and farm products ? And yet we only hear of such things at Marietta, Marshallville, Augusta and Columbus. It is needless to say more. Mr. Fel ton s letter makes the argument by his foots. And, at the same time, decides and settles the question of the policy of monthly county fairs ; butr I will not for bear quoting a sentence from a former letter of his, in which he states “ that tbe announcement that the Society would hold a monthly fair, and give pre miums npon flowers, fruits and vegeta bles, had created more enthusiasm among tbe members than any other means heretofore adopted.” Perhaps I should have addressed this note, through your paper, to tbe Presi dents and Secretaries of County Societies. I hope they will so consider it. I ask tbe weekly press of the State to copy and to give the policy the weight of their approval. Very respectfully, Dav. W. Lewis. P. S.—Bince writing the above, Gen eral Browne informs me that the Bibb County and Ocmulgee Agricultural So cieties have united in arrangements to hold a monthly fair at the State Fair Grounds on tbe 29th ; at which liberal premiums are offered for vegetables, fruits, flowers, and samples of field crops —and especially for the trial of all plows—turning, subsoil, cultivators—that may be presented A trial too of bread and butter, for which premiums are of fered. All members are expected to carry their baskets, and spend the day in discussion or talk about forming in any easy, sound way. The Bibb county premium list will be published in time lor general information. Marshallville, Ga., May 7,1871. Col. D. W. Lewis, Macon, Ga : Dear Sir —l regret your and General Browne’s inability to be present at our little monthly exhibition on yesterday. It was a complete success in every par ticular. It was a roost excellent display of vegetables, and the spirit and display was not confined to such articles as were only included in the premium list, but to all other kinds ; and the exhibition of clover and grasses was really good. Fifty cents per capita upon each mem ber of the club raised the amonnt of pre miums offered on yesterday, and the ad mission of twenty-five cents for each male over twelve years (ladies and chil dren free) raised more money for pre miums for next month’s exhibition than was given for premiums on yesterday. There were at least two hundred in all out on yesterday. We had two very ap propriate impromptu addresses from a couple of gentlemen from Houston —one of whom was so much pleased with the working of the affair that he promised to report as fully as possible the exhibi tion to the Telegraph and Messenger. We agreed to repeat the exhibition on the second Friday in next month, but to keep up our usual monthly meetings on the first Saturday in each month for the discussion of agricultural subjects and the transaction of such business as is necessary. A committee of five members were appointed yesterday to arrange all matters necessary for the next monthly exhibition. Hoping you will have a fuller report of the affair in the Telegraph of next Tuesday or Wednesday than I oan here furnish you, I remain yours, etc., L- M. Felton. Prince Napoleon and Jules Favre. The following letter, from Prince Na poleon to M. Jules Favre, is being circu lated : London, May 31, 1871. Peace is signed with the conqueror. Paris, the grand eapital, is in flames ; its finest and most venerable structures are reduoed to ashes ; blood flows in streams ; your work is complete ! The deep sorrow which weighs down each French heart must not be allowed to obscure that reason which has the right to require of you a reckoning for the accumulated disasters you have caus ed. The 4th of September, the armis tice discussed at Ferriers, the defence of' Paris, the preliminaries of Versailles, the 18th of March, the peace of Frank fort, the burning of Paris—behold your mournful dates. History will call you I’homme fatal. It will find in your conduct but one motive for action—the hate for the name of Napoleon. The war funeste, commenced the 19th of July, 1870, by the empire, is termi nated tbe |oth of this May by tbe Gov- ernment without name to which you be long. But what is this Government ? Is it the National Defense? No; for you have done nothing but capitulate. It is a Government of national restora tiop ? No; for France is invaded by anarchy and disorganization. Is it a monarchy ? No. Is it a republic ? Still less. Is It liberty ? No ! Where was it at the elections oppressed by decrees of ostracism, withdrawn at the last moment, after having falsified the choice ‘of the citizens ? It is a collec tion of every evil, held together by the absence of order, of security, of liberty and of strength. Let us descend tjie steps by which you have conducted us to the depths of the abyss. The 4th of September you propose la decheance ; the riot guided by you drives away yoqr colleagues ; you break your oath ; against universal suffrage you proceed to usurp power at tbe Hotel de Ville. The empire had committed great faults; onr defeats were great ; but our disasters date from yojj. Let each bear his part. Without doubt it was a griev ous error to count too much upon the forces of France, and to commit in 1870 the fault which Prussia committed in 1806 ; to look too much to our victories under the great republic aud the first empire ; to think too little of the power ful enemy we had to combat; to con template the Crimea in 1854 and Italy in ■ 1859, instead of calmly looking in the face the German forces in 1870, headed by remarkable men, I neither wish to nor oaa I deny these faults, for which the Napoleons pay for more heavi ly by their heartfelt grief than by their mere exile ; but the Emperior has never sought to cling to the throne by a peace which might save his power by impos ing too great sacrifices on France. Mark we have one consolation—that of having fallen with tbe country, which, on the contrary, your elevation dates from its misfortunes. You know better than any one the conditions which Napoleon 111. could have obtained from Prussia at Sedan. Undoubtedly they were hard, but incom parably better than those accepted by you. Qnr sacrifices would not have born comparison with those you have subscribed to, without reckoning that we should have ayoided the months of dis order brought on by the Government of the Don-defense of Paris, and by the odious aud impotent dictature of those of your -colleagues, emigrants in bal loons, pillaging and oppressing our provinces. Up to the fall ot the em pire we had submitted to great misfor tunes, but these were reparable, as have been those you find recorded in the his tory of many great peoples ; since the 4th of September, on the contrary, there have been no longer such misfortunes, but there are disasters which find no parallel in history. The faults belong to the empire, the disasters to you, and I ask myself if, amid tie faults of the empire, its great est has not been to fare tolerated within itself your criminal attempts. The inevitable oonsequece of your usurpation is the revolution of the 18th of March, which you accuse to-day, and the burning of Paris, for which you are responsible. **** * * * In the darkness in which France is plunged—in feoe of those >n«xwho, in their delirium burn our monuments, overturn the column and break the glorious bronie of which each fragment makes a wound in the heart of each of our soldiers—it is necessary to seek for healthy light. This is not to be found in the intrigues of pretenders, but in the will of the nation itself; otherwise there can be nothing but struggle and confusion. It is not in a principle which is the negation of modern society; in a white flag, which France no longer re members ; in the negation of universal suffrage in the “ White Terror succeed ing the Red Terror; in the fusion of pretenders, in the return of the French Stuarts—it is not thus that France can find the haven of safety. No ; for anew society, anew symbol is required. It requires—and modern right wills it— the abdication of all before the will of the people freely and directly expressed. Besides this, once more I repeat, there is nothing but chaos. Faith in monarchy cannot be imposed. The cnly base up on which a government in France can affirm its principle, the only source from which it can draw legitimacy and force, is by an appeal to the people, which we claim, and on whioh France ought to insist. Napoleon (Jerome). [From the JSew York Tribune, June 17.1 Weston’s Walk four hundred miles in less than five . DAYS. At 11:47, last eveniDg, Weston com pleted the last round of his four hun dredth mile, and was enthusiastically cheered by the great concourse of peo ple that had assemhled to witness the completion of this extraordinary exhi bition of .human endurance. Weston started on his fifth day's walk at 4:43 A. M , having slept a little more than four hours. He had then just eighty miles to walk, twenty of which he finish ed at 10:05 A. M., when he stopped for breakfast, and also took a short rest, in all occupying twenty minutes. At 10:25 A.M. he started again, and did not make another rest until he had com pleted fifty miles, which he made in ten hours and fifty-three minutes. This was at 9:17 P. M. He then took a hearty supper, and exchanged the velvet suit, in which he had so long walked, for silk tights, with ornamented tunic. During the last five miles, both Weston and the audience were aroused to an in tense state of excitement; the latter cheering almost continually, and the former winning applause by walking backwards, running, jumping, and per forming many playful tricks in order to demonstrate the large amount of physical force he yet held in reserve. The Rink is one-seventh of a mile iu circumfer ence, and during the 396th mile he made this distance, walking backward, in 3 minutes and 30 seconds. The last five miles were made at the following rates : 396th in 13 rain, 40 sec.; 397th in 13 min. 40 see.; 398th. in 12 min. 56 sec.; 399th, 12 min. 45 sec.; and 400th, in 11 min. 7 sec. • At the conclusion of the last round he had 18 minutes to spare ; and as he turned to the assembly, his face glowing with success, he was seized by two men, wl(0, placing him ou their shoulders, ran with him round the place over which he had walked 2,800 times. When brought back to his dressing-room tbe crowd gathered round him, and Prof. Doremus, who had acted as his medical adviser, having succeeded in quieting the uproar, said that the feat, which they had seen thus successfully completed, was of immense importance to the scientific world, and in the name of science he thanked Mr. Weston for this practical trial of endurance, more severe than anything that had happened from the time of Adam to the present day. It was also a temperance sermon, preached in an all-powerful manner; for if what is ordinarily known as stim ulus had been used, the feat would never have been accomplished. In response t® loud calls, Mr. Weston said that from the appearance of his person, as his friends were carrying him around, they might think that he was tired, and not able to make a speech, but in that they were mistaken. In the accomplishment of this undertaking he felt that the praise was due to America for its inspira tion, more than to himself; aud to God more than all, who had given him strength. He was not conceited enough to think that in the mere doing he deserv ed all the credit, as much of it was due to his trainer, attendants, judges, and others who had interested themselves in the matter. He should not walk again unless some foreigner beat his time, be fore he became 35 years old, in which case he should try to “ warm” him ; but in future he should turn his attention to his profession of journalism. Some of the sporting papers had spoken against him, and he was glad to say that they had lost by it. Still, he bore no ill will to any one, and with that he bade them all good night. The Value of a Patronymic.— ‘ What’s in a name ?’ was the famous conundrum propounded by Juliet.— Romeo ‘gave it up.’ Not much in a name, we should say, when plantation niggers—criminals at that—rejoice in the names of some of the most illustri ous white men that ever lived. For in stance : Four George Washingtons, six Andrew Jacksons, five Henry Clays, and two James K. Polks, reside at present in the Louisiana penitentiary ! How’s that for high ? These niggers are doubtless intelligent ‘voters,’ not withstanding their present place of abode ; and if they are ‘intelligent’ enough to be entrusted with the ballot, they are ‘intelligent’ enough to know that they have no business with these illustrious names, and should be severe ly dealt with for carrying off, when they abandoned the ‘old plantation,’ what was loaned them only by their former mas ters. William Shakspeare and Walter Scott arc parties to actions in a South ern Court, and Francis Bacon is coun sel in both cases. Shakspeare and Scott are fifteenth amendments for ducats, and its greenbacks to shirt buttons that Ba con is also a descendant of Ham. Veri ly there’s not much in a name now-a-days. Here is a specimen of Chicago life : One of the newsboys of that village came, up under the morality ordinance, and the plucky little gamin made his own defense to the magistrate as fol lows: “ You ’uns is mighty hard on we ’uns. We’s got to grab our hash sell in’ papers, and how you ’uns ’spose wo’s going to keep moral when one ed’tur lets a ’oman lick him and then calls an other ed’tur a liar, while the rest on ’em sits* roun’ an’ says, ‘ St’boy, sick em ?’ Damfino how to do it,” They let him pass. Cincinnati Provision Market, BY KENNEDY, ECKERT * 00. Cincinnati, June 23, 1871. Editors Chronicle <Sc Sentinel: The market for Provisions during the past week has undergone some changes, opening dnll and weak, closing quiet and firm. During the early part, holders in or der to effect sales, which they were anx ious to do, had to submit to a further re duction in values on nearly all articles, and even at the decline buyers wants are small, but toward the close there was h better enquiry for stuff, holders became more reserved in tueir offerings, demand ed full prices, and a portion of the decline was recovered. The demand that does exist is mostly for future delivery, and at" prices below what holders are willing to accept, and it is a difficult matter to either buy or sell at quotations any round lots. Consumers are still holding back—wheth er it is on account of stock on hand we are unable to tell, but as long as they don’t take hold we need not look for any healthy trade. The receipts of summer hogs at the various packing points are large, and as yet no sign of any “ let up. ’ A good part of this product is cured, and will be put on the market next month. What ef fect it will have on prices we will be more able to judge then, put it is well known that this stuff was manufactured at less rates that prices current to-day. Another drawback to the trade is the unsatisfacto ry state of affairs abroad—the cable bring ing the news ofa decline almost daily. As an insitalC"; Prime Mess Pork opened at 1175., quoted to-uay 11! '*' s - 6d., a decline of 595. 6d., aud other articles or hog lulli* proportion. Any demand from abroad can be supplied by tbe summer cures, and that class of meat is preferred there. To day’s market closed firm but quiet, but little dealing done—buyers and sellers un able to meet. Mess Pork opened quiet at sls 25, but under discouraging advices from other markets it settled down to sls, with some transactions at this rate; some sales were made at sl47s,sellers 30 days; 1,000 bbls. sold at sls 25, buyer’s option just half, September. It would be difficult to force sales cash for Pork over sl4 50. Re slps —Country nominal. Dry Salted or Bulk Meats opened quiet at closing rates noted in our last, but buyers not responding, and holders being anxious to sell, a decline was established. Shoulders sold down to Si, closing 64, rib sides, clear rib and clear sides sold at 7, ?i@7i, but are net freely offered at these rates, being held | higher; bulk hams, 9to 10, all loose, or 4 more packed; bellies, 8 to 84 packed. Bacon was in fair demand for fature, and liberal quantities were taken for Au gust and September; for immediate deliv ery, the demand was only moderate, and oonhned to filling small orders.

From these, it will be seen that onr drawings are under authority of law ; that the gentlemen who compose onr Association are responsible, and in every way worthy of confidence; that sworn Commissioners, in no wise con nected with the Association, superintend the drawing; that these’Commissioners are men of the highest standing in the community, and that parties who invest can rely upon being dealt with fairly and honestly. Every safeguard that the law of the land Can throw around such enterprises is placed upon these distributions—they are conducted by gentlemen well known for their integrity and fair dealing—they are. endorsed by leading Bankers, Merchants, Officials and Newspapers—hence we ap peal *o the public generally for their pat ronage, with the assurance that we will conduct the distribution with “ equal and exact justice to all.” Respectfully.

Nearly three years ago I was attacked with Sciatic Rheu matism, which rapidly diffused itself through my entire system, affecting par ticularly the hips, back and lowei ex tremities. For many months I could not walk nor stand without support; anu al though I traveled constantly over a large district, attending to my ministerial duties, f had to be helped in and out of my carriage, and assisted in dressing and undressing myself. I knew no exemption from sovere suffering for about eighteen months. Different physicians had pro scribed for me remedies most relied upon, with no appreciable result. Finally one ot them suggested the use of Rosadalis. In a very hort time its salutary effects were clearly manifested. In a few months I conside-fd myself so near well that I felt like anew man, and discontinued the use of the medicine. After a few months of extreme and exhausting labor and expo sure my disease revived. 1 resorted again to Rosadalis, and find it is the only rum edy that will control my case. ROSADALIS is Alterative, Tonic and Diuretic, and acts at one and the same time upon the BLOOD, LIVER, KIDNEYS and ail the SECRETORY ORGANS, expelling all impure matter and building up the sys tem to a healthy, vigorous condition, ROSADALIS IS SOLD BY ALL DRUGGISTS.
